\section{Introduction}
This report describes the objectives and the procedures of
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and aims to evaluate the unique
way in which New Zealand has integrated EIA principles into
environmental management procedures. Particular attention is given to
New Zealand's principal piece of environmental legislation, the
Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA), and how its requirements and
procedures compare to international EIA best practise.
