Abstract:

Composing an Environmental Impact Statement is a complex task, not only in the USA but also in The Netherlands. Responsible for this difficulty are the comprehensive technical nature of the EIS, the diversity of the audience, and the political character of the outcome: the final text is a compromise between all those involved in the environmental debate. These factors may easily lead to voluminous statements. Communication specialists can help in this process: by writing the obliged summary, by editing the final copy, and (for those with management skills) by coordinating the environmental debate.
