Environmental Impact Assessment

Normandeau Associates has extensive experience in conducting Environmental Assessments (EA) and providing Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) in fulfilling the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and related state regulations.

Preparing environmental documents from the Northwest to the East Coast, and on the outer continental shelf, our staff have developed a proven approach to evaluating practical measures for minimizing adverse impacts while also enhancing beneficial project effects. This is critical to the acceptance of a proposed project by both the regulatory agencies as well as the public.

The scope of these services includes:

• Organization and management of multi-disciplinary teams
• Review and synthesis of existing information during the early stages of impact assessment
• Planning, organizing, and conducting "scoping" sessions
• GIS mapping
• Identification, quantification, and comparison of impacts of project alternatives
• Evaluation of mitigation measures for minimizing adverse effects and enhancing beneficial effects
• Expediting of permit applications through the regulatory process
• Facilitation of stakeholder involvement
