Sažetak
Mistrust of the results of environmental impact studies often causes a stronger involvement of the public and the interested public in the procedure of assessing the environmental impact study for a planned intervention, especially if there is public resistance to a certain project. This paper presents the results of empirical research on the public awareness on the responsibility for the accuracy of information and data in environmental impact studies. The qualitative study was carried out using a purposive sample and the methods of in-depth interview and participant observation. The grounded theory method was used in the analysis of the empirical material and the quantification of the qualitatively processed coded material was calculated using the computer package Statistica ver 11.00. The research determined the level of awareness of the target groups and sectors about the responsibility for the accuracy of information and data in environmental impact studies. The majority of respondents expressed the attitude that the investor bears the largest share of responsibility, especially regarding the technical data on the project, but also regarding the control of the accuracy of the overall study and prevention of incorrect information sharing. The majority of public sector representatives expressed the view that the investor was the one most responsible for the accuracy of the overall study and prevention of incorrect information sharing. While they are fully supported by the civil sector representatives, the representatives of the economic sector mainly express the opinion according to which authorised accredited institutions and the competent ministry bear the largest share of responsibility for the accuracy of data and information.
