Projects at Rural GIS Sites
Develop and Test Geospatial Technologies and Methods for Cumulative Impact Assessment for Shoreline Management.
RGIS Regional Office: Pacific Northwest, Central Washington University
Project Dates: 2006/2007
Synopsis:
This objective provides information on how to scope, identify appropriate geospatial methods, and provide the necessary documentation required for developing defensible cumulative impact analyses and restoration plans. We will develop a systematic process for quantitatively and qualitatively reviewing predicted cumulative effects and alternative actions, as described in Washington Shoreline Master Programs, Environmental Impact Statements, and Environmental Assessments, based on the various policy definitions of cumulative impacts and minimum compliance measures associated with developing Shoreline Master Programs, Environmental Impact Statements, and alternatives analyses for full NEPA disclosure.
