An initial environmental examination (IEE) of the impacts of oil palm activities in the Popondetta area has been undertaken. Through agreement with the Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF) and The Centre for Environmental Law and Community Rights Inc. (CELCOR), environmental consultants Ben Cole and John Craven were engaged to undertake the IEE. The aims of the IEE were to identify issues and to determine priorities for an environmental impact assessment (EIA) and evaluate whether available data could support legal action.
