  In accordance with the above OECD Recommendation, ECGD now expects sponsors of projects with a high potential environmental impact to make environmental impact information (e.g. any environmental impact assessment or summary) publicly available at an appropriate stage in the development of the project and at least 30 calendar days before ECGD issues a final commitment of support.
