Norwegian term or phrase: avbøtende tiltak
Avbøtende tiltak, begrep som brukes i forbindelse med utarbeidelse av reguleringsplaner, utbyggingsplaner for kraftutbygging og lignende. Med avbøtende tiltak menes de tilpasninger av prosjektet som tiltakshaver gjør under planleggingsprosessen, så vel som ytterligere foranstaltninger som kan gjennomføres for å minimere andre uønskede virkninger av tiltaket.

I kraftutbyggingssaker vil de fleste avbøtende tiltak være rettet mot miljøforholdene i selve vannstrengen, mens andre er rettet mot landskap og andre viktige samfunnsverdier. Målsettingen med slike tiltak er at de skal ha en tilsiktet positiv økologisk effekt og positiv landskapsmessig virkning. Eksempler på avbøtende tiltak er: fastsetting av minstevannføring i elver, bygging av fisketrapper, utsetting av fiskeyngel, bygging av terskler.
