This guide was created as a practical manual to help reduce the consultation period with the Han River Basin Environmental Office for projects subject to small-scale environmental impact assessments and to aid public understanding. It broadly covers concrete and practical information that can be immediately applied in the field.

The guide is structured so that both permit officials and applicants can easily reference it in practice. Key contents include: △ types of projects subject to small-scale environmental impact assessments and the consultation process, △ cases requiring consultation on changes, △ examples of supplementary materials, and △ checklists for each stage of the application process.

Yangpyeong County plans to post the guide on the county government website and distribute it to relevant organizations, such as local surveying and architectural offices, so it can be used immediately. Through this, the county aims to minimize requests for supplementary documents during consultations with the Han River Basin Environmental Office and to support prompt and efficient processing of applications.

Governor Jeon Jinseon stated, "This newly produced guide is expected to improve understanding of small-scale environmental impact assessments and contribute to increased resident satisfaction by enabling prompt permit processing without the need for supplementary materials. We will continue to strengthen field-oriented administrative services and realize proactive administration that residents can truly experience."
