It will be Clive George or Colin Kirkpatrick and I who will facilitate the workshop. Will make a decision before the end of February. I'm registered and I expect Colin is or will be soon.


comments_vc:
I have reviewed the abstract and E-mailed Jan Gilbreath with our preliminary acceptance.


comments_vc:
Interesting proposal. Such a PP plan will raise some ethical issues, and I hope that the presenter will address these issues.


comments_vc:
Interesting proposal with place for discussion and exchanges.


comments_vc:
I have already received confirmation for this session. I just assess it for testing the process.


comments_vc:
This abstract emphasizes on the context rather than on results. I suggest the author to focalize his presentation on results and way to improve PP. Improvement on the summary in that direction is welcome.


comments_vc:
Interesting proposal about a quite innovative methodology.


comments_vc:
Interesting proposal. Focused on the measurement of public concern with reference to Northern Canada. The abstract emphasizes mainly on the context rather than on some results and perspective. Abstract improvement in this direction is welcome.


comments_vc:
Interesting proposal. I suggest the presenters to emphasize more on results and concerns for improvement, rather than on the EIA process.


comments_vc:
I have reviewed Scott Vanughan's paper and advised him that it meets the preliminary acceptance requirements set forth by the IAIA'05 Program Committee.

Theme Forum: IATRP


comments_vc:
Mexico is a very interesting country with respect to EIA and PP. The paper will be useful and interesting. However, prior to publication in the final program, the abstract must have a thorough English proofread/edit. It is quite hard to follow in its present form.


comments_vc:
Very interesting proposal on a sensitive issue.


comments_vc:
The theme of the abstract was difficult to follow due in part to the current English text. The abstract needs to be given a thorough English edit. Once that is done, the abstract can be re-evaluated for possible acceptance.

I agree with this comment. PA


comments_vc:
Interesting proposal promoting public participation


comments_vc:
This should be an interesting paper, but the abstract could be toned town a wee bit. It reads too much like an ad for a block-buster movie. PC

Alan, following your mail, I do appreciate if you can improve in the way you have mentionned me in your e-mail. Cheers Pierre A.

Abstract should be removed as it entered under the Theme Forum Abstracts.

This is not an abstract but the description of IATRP's Concurrent Sessions. It should be removed.

comments_vc:
I have reviewed the abstract and E-mailed Chantal Line Carpentier with our preliminary acceptance.


comments_vc:
This abstract fits better into the biodiv & ecology session. I sent an email to Helen Byron on 1 feb 2005 asking what she thinks.
Lea.


comments_vc:
This paper will bring out gender issues, which is critical in PP. However, the abstract could use some editing prior to publication in the final program. The text is somewhat difficult to follow in places.


comments_vc:
It will be useful to have the Finnish perspective on EIA and how PP contributes to the EIA process in Finland. This abstract needs editing though prior to publication. The English text is a bit difficult to follow in places.


comments_vc:
This paper appears very practical and focusses on an important topic in Africa - water use.


comments_vc:
The project is located in an area of tension, worry and high emotion. This paper should be most interesting as it focusses on how negative emotions could be mitigated through good practice PP.


comments_vc:
This paper focusses on native issues which are extremely close to the Indigenous heart and soul in Alaska - whaling. Indigenous peoples generally respect their own traditional laws and customs, before laws and policys imposed by non-indigenous regulators. This paper should bring out some very interesting lessons with respect to PP and Indigenous issues.


comments_vc:
Public participation with respect to nuclear issues is topical in light of Kyoto. The Swedish perspective will be important, however, the abstract needs editing. It is hard to read and follow in places.


comments_vc:
This will be an interesting paper, but, the author needs to do 2 things:1. Edit for English grammar, and 2. Put more detail into the abstrat. At the moment it is a bit weak and needs more content to invite participants to the session.

comments_vc:
This will be an interesting contribution for the IAIA membership interesting in doing better PP


comments_vc:
This will be a useful paper with a good cross-section of case studies. It could use a minor English edit prior to publication in the final program.

comments_vc:
Your abstract looks very promising. - May I ask you to particularly make the link between the strategic decisions and action on the ground clear when you present. - Thanks!


comments_vc:
Your abstract is very interesting. - Would it be possible to also spend some time on whether and how the SEA/EIA framework has benefited the company. - Also, it would be very interesting to know whether SEA/EIA has been capable of creating win-win-win situations. At the moment it sounds a bit descriptive. Thanks!


comments_vc:
Your paper sounds promising! - May I ask you to also indicate whether the policy decisions can be clearly connected with action on the ground, ie whether in your examples tiering has worked well. Thanks


comments_vc:
Adam, good abstract. - Any connection with the SEA Directive here? - If yes, please mention it and explain how it may have an impact!


comments_vc:
Your topic is very interesting. - Could you also specify the systems/countries you aim at, please. Thanks!


comments_vc:
Your abstract is interesting. - The main lessons you present are similar to what others have observed. - In your presentation, could you make reference to those, please. - If possible, can you also clearly state on how SEA should differ from EIA and how government agencies can be convinced to take SEA results into account. Also, I'd be curious to know if you consider proponent intimidation as unavoidable and what could be done about it. - Thanks!


comments_vc:
Your paper sounds promising. - Could you also clearly state where in the decision making hierarchy the SEA is located and what policy or other issues you think remain unadressed in Portugal. - Is there any experience in other EU countries you could make reference to?


comments_vc:
Very interesting topic. - In the presentation could you clearly state who you think should conduct SEA (industry or government). - Also, do you think there is a good chance that SEA and EIA for biotechnology can be effectively tiered?


comments_vc:
Your paper sounds promising. - Would it be possible to not just describe similarities and differences between EIA and SEA, but also explain them? - Also, it would be good to say something about the similarities of the EU SEA Directive and the Chinese SEA law and maybe say something about the differences in application in these two systems. - Thanks!


comments_vc:
Your abstract sounds very interesting, Ainhoa. - Do you think standardisation would be possible across sectors and countries? - Or do you think every system would need a specific approach?


comments_vc:
This sounds like an excellent paper, Marc. - I attach a submitted paper on aspects for effective SEA. - You might find this interesting!


comments_vc:
Sent note to Goodland 2/15 that this was part of his session unless he refused by 2/22.

comments_vc:
I have sent the author an e-mail asking him if he really wishes an entire session or will be presenting a paper in a session. 
If he wishes a session this has consequences for the health stream as a whole (I would need to integrate it in the health stream plan)


comments_vc:
This is a poster.  Therefore it is not assigned to the session suggested by the author.

comments_vc:
Tarja - your abstract looks very good & I note mentions that Finnish biodiversity assessment guidelines were published relatively recently.  If possible, it would be good if you could say a bit about these guidelines in your presentation (as i am sure this will be of interest to the international audience) & whether following these guidelines is likely to address the shortcomings demonstrated by your review.


comments_vc:
Abstract seems better suited to the Quality Assurance theme & has been referred to Elsa Joao


comments_vc:
Sudha - your abstract looks very interesting & I shall look forward to hearing how the information about the ecological impacts & the communities perception of these are combined in the assessments. I note that your abstract mentions a proposed national level strategy for impact assessment studies of community forestry & given the focus of this year's conference on quality/ethics, it would be good if you could say a bit about how/whether this strategy might improve the quality of future impact assessment studies.


comments_vc:
Elijah - your abstract looks interesting. Given the focus of this year's conference on quality/ethics, it would be good if in your presentation you could draw out the implications for the quality of impact assessments of the potential synergies between impact assessment and wetland management.


comments_vc:
Vinod - your abstract looks very good. Given the focus of this year's conference on quality/ethics, if possible, it would be good if in your presentation you could draw out the implications of effective biodiversity mitigation for the quality of impact assessments generally.


comments_vc:
Peter-John - your abstract looks good. Given the focus of this year's conference on quality/ethics, it would be good if in your presentation you could draw out the potential benefits for the quality of impact assessments of using the red listing process.


comments_vc:
Pam - your abstract looks really interesting. Given the focus of this year's conference on quality/ethics, it would be good if in your presentation you could draw out the quality/ethical issues involved in this particular case in Puget Sound.


comments_vc:
Richard - your abstract looks really interesting. Given the focus of this year's conference on quality/ethics, it would be good if in your presentation you could draw out the quality/ethical issues involved in this particular case in the San Francisco bay estuary.


comments_vc:
Jill - your abstract looks good. Given the focus of this year's conference on quality/ethics, it would be good if in your presentation you could draw out the implications of the group model building apporach for impact assessment quality.


comments_vc:
this is NOT the theme forum.  This is a concurrent session. Theme forum is under Dulin.

comments_vc:

Jenni: Please change this from Panel to THEME FORUM, by changing format to OTHER.    Do not accept for theme forum, however, until we hear from Susan.  This is similar to the problem with 152, which was submitted as a workshop and not as a theme forum.

Jenni -- CB sent note to kelly on 2/20, but this looks like format should be changed to paper.  Not sure if Kelly wants a workshop or a panel into which this would fit or if stands alone as a paper that he puts into a session.

I have sent the author an e-mail asking him if he really wishes an entire session or will be presenting a paper in a session. 
If he wishes a session this has consequences for the health stream as a whole (I would need to integrate it in the health stream plan)

This abstract looks very interesting, indeed, Bram. - When you do your presentation, can you say a few words on agriculture planning in Canada, please. - Not knowing the Canadian system, this somewhat confuses me, to be honest (what and who exactly are the policies/plans/programmes drawn up for?)


comments_vc:
Your abstract sounds very promising. - However, I think it might be preferable to just mention policies, as EIA techniques have actually worked well in certain plan and programme situations!

Very interesting. - Have been to Columbia several times and looking forward to this. - What do you mean by 'the SEA framework'? - Also, what 'development plans' was the SEA conducted for? It would be good if you could give a short outline of the Columbian planning system at the start of your presentation and how SEA was integrated! Thanks!

Tell R. Fristik that he has submitted this as a panel and he should either 1)modify the abstract to indicate who will be on the panel and enter their names, so they could appear as discussants in the abstract volume; or 2) if this is actually a paper and not a panel of people, he should resubmit as a paper, in which case it will be assigned to an appropriate session, which likely will be one of follow-up sessions already in preliminary program.


comments_vc:
Please suggest to Mr. Esson that not that many people will enter the website and see his note asking for proposed panelists and by the time the final program is published it will be too late for them to respond, as they would also need to be looking for that online.

3/3/05. We are still waiting for somebody to go in and change the name of the organizer, which is not Boyle, but is Leonard, Mercier, et al. It is either a session or a workshop. The PP discribes it as a workshop. So I suggest that its format and the names of the organizers to be inserted into the database be confirmed with Leonard and/or Mercier. CB

Listed in prelim program as a workshop hosted by Leonard, Mercier and Jaafar B.   There are no submissions in the database for these people.

Sent note on 2/20 to Boyle, Mercier and Leonard to ask who is the convener of the workshop and if other abstracts will be submitted and whether it is a session or a workshop.

Very interesting and relevant proposal according to the meeting thema. The author suggests a session rather than a paper. Because we have no room for more sessions in Public participation, we accept this presentation as a paper and we suggest the author to convey the interested people to a Profession Practice open space discussion. See program.

This interesting and relevant proposal addresses public participation issues in Zambia. We suggest the author to include in his presentation some best practice and/or ethical aspects.


comments_vc:
Very interesting proposal on formal and unformal public participation. It challenges the EIA practitionners.

This is a duplicate of paper 269, already accepted by Croal.  Recode it to paper, so it is clear when looking by format that it is a duplicate, as now it will appear under session, which it is not, so far as CB knows.  2/27
From PA to Jen and Charlotte: I think we should delete it rather than recode it. If we recode it, we should be aware not to publish both into the abstract program.


comments_vc:
Interesting case study from IDB about a pipeline in Peru. We hope the author will emphasize her presentation mainly on the lessons learnt. This will be very relevant according to the conference theme.


comments_vc:
Bingham notes for P. Andre -- sounds more like a paper than a session.

PA to CB: I agree.

This paper discusses the workshop approach in a specific biological study context (Lobster). According to the Conference theme, we suggest the author to address strengths and shortcomings of this approach and discuss on the adequacy and effectiveness of such public participation practice. What lessons have been learnt?


comments_vc:
note from CB on 2/26 to Pierre Andre  Is this really a session or a paper?  If a paper, change format to paper (go into modify abstract) and tell author you accept as a paper for one of the sessions you will put together. I will do the change to paper.

PA: This paper addresses the very actual issue of Internet participation. Lessons learnt from this practice will be very useful.


comments_vc:
This proposal addresses the question of intergovernmental collaboration within a national context. Such structure should increase effectiveness, particularly in public participation. Interesting and relevant to the Conference theme.


comments_vc:
Very interesting and relevant proposal for this meeting. It addresses perception and communication issues, and suggests elements to bridge the gap between different stakeholders.

Addressing public responsibility in Turkey as elsewhere raises surely some ethical considerations. We do hope that the author will address such ethical issues. Interesting and relevant to the conference theme.

Paper deals with water flow modelling. Links to urban is missing. Suggest to accpet but to allocate under "other" sessions.


comments_vc:
Accepted for the urban session, but the author will have to provide further info on what he will be presenting; it will be interesting to see, how the results of the study can be used in decision making and planning


comments_vc:
It will be interesting to see, how MEA is designed to avoid overlaps with existing EA tools.


comments_vc:
Basically, the paper suggests to present the experience gained through the EIA's for three different projects in an urban context. The author will have to provide further info on how this information is relevant for decision making and planning in this context. Else wise it is suggested to defer the paper to "other" session (on EIA).


comments_vc:
Suggest to keep it in the urban. The development of the IDZ is integrated most likely in the metropolitan boundary and thus also in the overall urban development of Port Elisabeth. Furthermore, it deals with decision making and good governance - the overall topic of the session.

Should this be in SEA session or disaster session? Note to Kelly and Fischer sent 3/12

This is a very interesting and unusual approach to SEA. I'm not sure right now, though, waht PPPs you're actually looking at. - I don't think there can be a one-fits-all approach, so you might have to select certain PPPs for the purpose of the presentation. Also, how exactly are Tsunamis considered in these PPPs - as a potential risk?
