According to the assessment programme, the NVE has decided that assessments are to be carried out in the late summer/early autumn of 2008, with the aim of outlining impacts and considering mitigation measures for the Sauland Power Plant plans. The assessments will include hydrology, landscape and cultural environment, cultural history, natural environment and biological diversity, natural resources and society.
