Partner is adept at navigating the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/nepa\/what-national-environmental-policy-act\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NEPA<\/a> assessment process and evaluating the effects of a proposed action or project in an efficient and cost-effective manner.<\/p>\n<h4>What does a NEPA Assessment include?<\/h4>\n<p>The NEPA compliance process is aimed at evaluating the potential effects on natural and cultural resources of a proposed federal government \u201caction,\u201d as well as possible alternatives to that action. NEPA checklists and assessments look at a range of areas that could be potentially impacted by a government action such as:<\/p>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li>Designated wilderness areas and wildlife preserves<\/li>\n<li>Threatened or endangered species and critical habitats<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.partneresi.com\/services\/building-assessments-engineering\/historic-architecture-solutions\/\">Historic preservation<\/a> and Native American religious sites<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.partneresi.com\/services\/land-surveying-zoning\/flood-elevation-certificates\/\">Floodplain management<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.partneresi.com\/services\/environmental-consulting\/wetlands-services\/\">Wetland protection<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Wild and scenic rivers<\/li>\n<li>Coastal zone management<\/li>\n<li>Sole source aquifers<\/li>\n<li>Air quality<\/li>\n<li>Farmland protection<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.partneresi.com\/services\/environmental-health-safety\/environmental-compliance\/\">Environmental justice<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Noise abatement and control<\/li>\n<li>High intensity lights in residential neighborhoods<\/li>\n<li>Toxic, hazardous and\/or radioactive materials, contamination, chemicals or gases<\/li>\n<li>Siting of HUD assisted projects near hazardous operations<\/li>\n<li>Airport clear zones and accident protection zones<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>The NEPA compliance process consists of several phases, the first of which is to determine whether the action falls into a \u201ccategorical exclusion\u201d for which no further review or a limited review is required.\u00a0Partner also provides related services including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partneresi.com\/services\/building-assessments-engineering\/historic-architecture-solutions\/\">Cultural Resource (architectural and archeological) Surveys<\/a>; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partneresi.com\/services\/environmental-consulting\/wetlands-services\/\">Wetland Surveys<\/a>; and Biological Evaluations.<\/p>\n<p>If the action or project does not fall under a categorical exclusion, then further review may be required to satisfy NEPA, potentially including an Environmental Assessment. An <a href=\"https:\/\/www.partneresi.com\/services\/environmental-consulting\/phase-i-environmental-site-assessment\/\">Environmental Assessment (EA)<\/a> further examines the potential effects of the federal action as well as the significance of such effects.<\/p>\n<p>A further step is a full Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), which is a comprehensive analysis of the potential impacts and their significance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":11072,"parent":198,"menu_order":64,"template":"","tags":[4135,4136,4137,4138,4139,4140,4141,4142,4143,4144,1351,1240],"department":[132],"conditions":[1683],"services-tag":[80],"class_list":["post-1710","services","type-services","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-categorical-exclusion-cx","tag-nepa-assessment","tag-nepa-assessment-services","tag-nepa-compliance-services","tag-nepa-compliance","tag-national-environmental-policy-act","tag-no-significant-impact","tag-fonsi","tag-environmental-impact-statement","tag-eis","tag-nepa","department-environmental-consulting","conditions-has-no-projects","tags-categorical-exclusion-cx","tags-nepa-assessment","tags-nepa-assessment-services","tags-nepa-compliance-services","tags-nepa-compliance","tags-national-environmental-policy-act","tags-no-significant-impact","tags-fonsi","tags-environmental-impact-statement","tags-eis","tags-nepa","tags-national-environmental-policy-act-nepa","services-tag-nepa-assessment-compliance"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!--
