Environmental Assessment of Program Loans

Program loans must follow the same general environmental assessment and review process as projects loans. However, analysis of environmental impacts takes on different form.

ADB requires that the environmental impacts of policy actions associated with program loans be evaluated, and that appropriate mitigation measures be identified and incorporated as loan covenants.

A matrix of potential environmental impacts of each policy action, together with appropriate mitigation measures is to be prepared.
