The handbook is specifically designed to be used in the context of the Bank's environmental policies, as set out in Operational Policy (OP) 4.01, "Environmental Assessment," and related documents. It promotes the concepts of sustainable development by focusing attention on the benefits - both environmental and economic -- of pollution prevention, including cleaner production and good management techniques. Part I contains a summary of key policy lessons in pollution management, derived from practical experience inside and outside the Bank Group over the past decade. Part II presents good-practice notes on implementation of policy objectives, based on experience with the Bank Group projects and on lessons from the policies and practices of other agencies and organizations in this field. Part III provides detailed guidelines to be applied in the preparation of the Bank Group projects. It represents state-of-the-art thinking on how to reduce pollution emissions from the production process.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
