Detailed explanation-1: -If in the screening stage of EIA, the impact level of a developmental project is not discernible, then what step should be adopted? (A) Scoping stage is to be followed.
Detailed explanation-2: -Screening is the first stage of the EIA process which results in a key EIA decision, namely to either conduct the assessment (based on the likely significant impacts) or not conduct it (in the anticipated absence of such impacts).
