<br/><br/> This study is an attempt to develop an environmental evaluation  system for environmental impacts of water resources projects in Thailand.  Altogether, 50 environmental parameters were identified to be associated  with environmental impacts of water resources projects in Thailand.  These parameters were organized under 9 components which were further  grouped under 3 categories. An opinion survey was carried out to deter-  mine the relative importance of the various parameters, components and  categories. Value function graphs for the parameters were also established  using results of the opinion survey. The methodology so developed was  then applied to a major water resources project in Thailand. Problem  areas in the case study were identified using the Battelle System of  assigning 'red flags'. The study shows that the EES can be a useful quan-  titative impact assessment methodology for use in Thailand.
