I don’t know if it’s poorly defined or just poorly understood by the general public. One of my clients works with energy companies in stakeholder engagement. A stakeholder is never just someone who is impact by the construction, but is someone who is in an area that may be impacted if something goes wrong (a spill, for example). These areas are just randomly decided on, either, there is a lot of data that goes into defining these areas. If a spill happens near a moving waterway, for example, the likely distance of travel from the spill site is considered when establishing stakeholders.
