To formalize the administrative EIA system, the EIA Ordinance was enacted in 1997 and became operational since April 1998. The Ordinance requires a list of Designated Projects, including major urban development and redevelopment projects, to conduct mandatory documentation and public consultation. These major development and redevelopment projects are listed under Schedule 3 of the EIA Ordinance and they are regarded as SEA in many developed countries. Details of the EIA Ordinance is posted on EPD's website http://www.epd.gov.hk/eia.
