Elia
During the development of the scoping document for the SEA, Elia, together with the Flemish administration, established an interdepartmental guidance group for the Stevin project.
Main information:
Throughout the whole planning and permitting process, the group met regularly, both as a group and on a one-on-one basis. Important process steps such as the scoping document, the public consultation, or the surveys during the SEA process as well as their relevant implication on Elia’s actions were discussed. With this, Elia ensured to incorporate the views of the Flemish administration on route alternatives in the analysis before presenting the document to the public.
Elia found these exchanges very useful since it helped provide guidance for controversial issues such as EMF.
