Environmental Impact Statements
Access
Description
The federal government issues hundreds of environmental impact statements each year - and this one resource provides detailed abstracts of all of those statements, also indexing them for easy reference. EIS extracts the key issues from complex government-released environmental impact statements, converting massive documents into concise, readable abstracts. Each entry includes a clear description of the project, sections on positive impact and negative consequences, and legal mandates. Major areas of coverage include: Air Transportation, Defense Programs, Energy, Hazardous Substances, Land Use, Parks, Refuges, and Forests, Research and Development, Roads and Railroads, Urban and Social Programs and Water.
