Environmental
Reports
Since
1985, RJG&A has completed hundreds of Environmental Assessments
subject to the
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and State Environmental Policy
Act
(SEPA) throughout the state of North Carolina. These projects
include 100 or more miles of linear
corridors and
hundreds of acres for treatment plant construction, storage facilities,
pump
station sites, facility expansions, and other land-disturbing
activities. All
project footprints are field-evaluated
for streams and wetlands, land use, and rare species and
habitat occurrences. All GPS
data collected are used
in GIS analysis of impacts and to assist engineers, planners, and
surveyors. The
EA process requires coordination with federal
and state agencies, non-profit entities, landowners and the public, and
engineering firms, often relying heavily on previous inventories, site
survey data, and GIS. Secondary and cumulative impacts associated with
these projects are a major component of each EA document. Please
visit our Recent
Projects page to read about some of our recently completed
environmental reports. Information about the field
survey work and permitting may be found on our Surveys
and Permitting page.
