An Environmental Impact Assessment is a process of assessing the potential impacts of a proposed development or activity
An Environmental Impact Statement is a document legally required for certain actions "significantly affecting the quality of the human environment".
An EIS is a tool for decision making.
It describes the positive and negative environmental effects of a proposed action, and it usually also lists one or more alternative actions that may be chosen instead of the action described in the EIS.
