Abstract

Environmental Impact Assessment in Antarctica is outlined within the Madrid Protocol of 1991 and stipulates that all activities which are conducted South of 60 degrees must undergo an Environmental Impact Assessment before proceeding. This report will deal with the effectiveness of the EIA processes which are in place under the Madrid Protocol and the issues which are outstanding within the processes that take place.
