Table 2-1. Type of impacts NameDescriptionNature of impactsPositiveThese impacts are those that improves the baseline environmental and social conditionsor introduce positive changes to itNegativeThese impacts are those that introduce adverse impacts or undesirable changes to thebaseline environmental and social conditionsTypes of impactsDirectThese impacts arise due to the activities of the proposed project and their interactionsto environmental and social receptorsIndirectThese impacts are due to the interactions of the activities of the proposed project andenvironmental and social receptors, which in turn trigger changes in the baselineconditions due to these interactions. These are the indirect results of the direct impactson the baseline conditions.InducedThese impacts are not the result of the project, i.e., these are due to other activities butoccur due to the implementation project (e.g., expansion of large-scale investment dueto power availability)
