The property construction sectors are expanding rapidly but, if not planned with the
consideration of environmental aspect, would give significant negative impact to
the environment. Legal requirements are needed to mitigate the impact due to the
development of property at the various stages such as planning, design, land
clearing, construction and development. Environmental Quality Act, 1974 and its
regulations are used as planning tools to minimize the impacts due to the
construction and development activities. Contractors, consultants, developers and
professional bodies should be responsible and play important role to avoid any
adverse impact to the environment and natural resources.
