When answering this question, it's important to demonstrate your ability to find a balance between achieving project goals and adhering to environmental standards. Start by acknowledging the importance of both aspects. Explain your approach to identifying potential conflicts early in the project planning phase. Discuss specific strategies you have used or would use to mitigate environmental impacts while still meeting project objectives. Provide examples from your past experience where you successfully navigated such conflicts. Emphasize your commitment to sustainable practices and regulatory compliance.
Example: "In my previous role, we had a project that required extensive land use, which posed a risk to local wildlife. I initiated an early environmental impact assessment and collaborated with ecologists to develop a mitigation plan. This included creating wildlife corridors and scheduling construction activities to avoid breeding seasons. By doing so, we were able to proceed with the project while minimizing harm to the environment."
