There are thousands of environmental analyses prepared each year to
meet the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) and similar programs. Written by an expert with 35 years of
experience in environmental consulting, research, and education,
Environmental Impact Analysis: Process and Methods makes the
preparation of EIAs not only easier but more thorough. It provides
a guide to successfully preparing analyses that are legally
defensible; establish the base for environmental protection; and
produce better projects, plans, and policies. Following an informal
description of the legal requirements, the book breaks down the
analysis process into a logical flow of steps and available methods
to identify impacts, compare alternatives, and develop impact
mitigation measures. The author illustrates each step and analysis
method with examples from case studies he managed, providing
insight not available from an independent review of the cases. He
offers a comprehensive and consistent approach to analysis with
each chapter building on information presented in previous
sections. The book also describes methods from other programs such
as hazardous waste clean-up and Natural Resources Damage Assessment
and explains how they can be adapted for use in environmental
impact analysis. It compares a diverse array of multi-level
environmental impact analysis approaches. Readers learn not only
how to produce an environmental document that meets regulations but
also clearly maximizes the benefits of the analysis and results in
a more useful product with strong stakeholder support.
