The purpose of environmental monitoring is to check whether planned and/or committed works are being carried out. Monitoring-control periods are determined at the review and evaluation commission meeting, and the number of monitoring-control reports that need to be prepared varies accordingly. Environmental monitoring-control studies are reported in the periods determined by the Ministry during the EIA process and presented to the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization and the Provincial Directorate of Environment and Urbanization.
