A Heritage Impact Statement (HIS) is a crucial document required for Development Applications (DA) in New South Wales (NSW) when a proposed development may affect a heritage item or conservation area.
 
The HIS assesses the potential impacts of the proposed development on the cultural significance of the heritage site.
 
It identifies the heritage values at stake, including historical, aesthetic, scientific, and social aspects.
 
The statement outlines the existing condition of the heritage item, detailing its significance and any previous modifications.
