Challenge group coding hierarchy

Themes	Empirical challenges in current processes that prevent the sustainable outcomes
Uncertainty related to project objectives and goals	There is excess waiting time related to, for example, comments and decisions There is lack of communication between actors Project plans and design are not accurate enough when permitting process is started Demands and duration of the permitting process are underestimated Uncertainties during EIA that may affect delays or additional work later
Mutual understanding	There are problems in how to coordinate work processes Governmental stakeholders speak their own jargon Investors do not always know what they want
Permitting process	The permitting process is considered to be long and challenging Not clear what should be investigated and included in the permitting related documents There might occur information supplementation requests that require new studies Investors consider permits as enablers of project financing too often
Design solution options	Non-optimal solution is required, and there is no time to find a better solution New solution does not fit into permit without change work Environmental impacts can be bigger than initially estimated It is overall challenging to find optimal solutions
