What is a Statement of Environmental Effects Report?

A Statement of Environmental Effects is a short report document that recognises and describes the likely environmental impacts of the development proposal and is required by most Councils for a Development Application.

In NSW, a Statement of Environmental Effects (SEE) is basically a document that describes the environmental impact of a developmental proposal.

A Statement of Environmental Effects can be requested to support a Development Application by NSW Councils.

Why do I need a Statement of Environmental Effects?

Local Councils will ask for a Statement of Environmental Effects for most Development Applications.
A Statement of Environmental Effects (SEE) is the record of the environmental assessment, which necessitates a process of identifying and discussing the planning and environmental information relevant to the site or proposal.
A Statement of Environmental Effects outlines:

  • The likely environmental impacts of the development
  • How the environmental impacts of the development have been identified
  • The steps that will be taken to protect the environment or to lessen the expected harm to the environment
