The environmental impact assessment system is designed to ensure proper environmental protection mainly at the design stage of the planned project. A serious threat to the proper operation of this system is the division of projects into smaller ones, so that they do not fall under this procedure. This practice is called „salami slicing”. One of the reasons for such behaviour of investors and administrative bodies is the misinterpretation of the term „technological connection”, which has not been defined in legal regulations yet.
