Environmental Licensing Reform Moves Forward

Proposed changes to Peru's environmental impact assessment system would streamline approvals for certain mid-size projects while tightening requirements for projects in protected areas. The draft law, which passed the legislative committee last week, would create a new "environmental compatibility" category for projects deemed to have low environmental impact. Industry groups support the measure as a way to reduce permitting delays, while environmental NGOs warn it could weaken protections. The full congress is expected to vote before year-end.
