Dr. Lynton K. Caldwell, "The Father of NEPA"
(Endorsement prepared for draft text, before he passed away)
The U.S. National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969
established the world's first modern national environmental policy.
All federal agencies must comply with NEPA's sweeping mandate to
prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) evaluating impacts
and alternatives of significant federal actions. More than 100
countries have now enacted similar policies emulating NEPA.
Written by a leading NEPA expert, this all-inclusive
handbook:
- Incorporates a step-by-by step approach, advancing the reader
from NEPA's basic principles through advanced topics of interest to
seasoned professionals
- Describes environmental planning and EIA from both American
and international perspectives
- Integrates best professional practices from hundreds of
sources, papers, and guidance directives
- Demonstrates state-of-the-art tools, techniques, and
approaches for solving problems that have hindered NEPA and
environmental planning practices.
NEPA and Environmental Planning: Tools, Techniques, and
Approaches for Practitioners is an indispensable resource for
professionals in government, consulting, planning, science and
engineering, as well as students in undergraduate and graduate
programs.
