I wish more than anything we could legislate the fee structures backwards. If the government wants an environmental impact study then the government is footing the bill for it. Putting it on the builder is stupid and just a way of hiding the budget item in other people's wallets.

Ok, the government will fund your environmental impact study so you can build, but...oh...given their budget they will have it done sometime in 2100.
