by Dr. Vijayan Gurumurthy Iyer

Abstract:
In this policy research paper, study and check principles for implementation of strategic environmental assessment (SEA) process in organizational planning and decision-making process towards sustainable development is discussed. The primary purpose of the EIA process is to encourage the consideration of the environment in organizational?s process and to arrive at actions that are environmentally compatible. SEA process should include the integrated consideration of technical or engineering, economic, environmental, safety, and health, social and sustainability factors in order to achieve business excellence. The design of the study is cross sectional. Environmental Health Impact Assessment (EHIA) process has been conducted for nuclear power plant to consider the safety and health impacts in order to mitigate psychological health loadings on workers and nearby residents. Social Impact Assessment (SIA) process can be defined as the systematic identification and evaluation of the potential social impacts (effects) of proposed projects, plans, programs, or legislative actions such that social consideration is encouraged in process and to arrive at actions that are socially compatible with reference to a sustainable sanitation project. SEA process concerns to environment and sustainability effects in process and arrive at proposed projects, plans, programs, and legislative actions that are compatible with respect to environment and sustainability issues. International EIA process required multi-disciplinary approach that has been conducted very early stage of Japanese Matsushita carbon rod project in 1982 for strategic environmental assessment. The paper highlights SEA process conducted for certain projects that based on operation and process approach and associated studies for sustainable development. Engineering or technical hybrid lifecycle analysis (LCA) has been conducted for identifying and measuring the impact of civil engineering industrial products on the environment and sustain efficacy by means of mass and energy balance methods. SEA system is a potentially useful element of good environmental management and sustainable development; however, as currently practiced in construction industries, it is far from perfection. Emphasis should be given in construction industries on maintaining economic viability of the operation, while in turn taking care to preserve the ecological and social sustainabilities of the country. International EIA process required multi-disciplinary approach that has been conducted very early stage of Indo-Matsushita Midget electrode projectin 1982 at Tada for economic, ecological and social sustainability.
