Environmental Assessment

Environmental Assessment

Where federal funds are used and an environmental assessment is required, ARa:

  • Conducts site inspections
  • Prepares and sends initial contact letters
  • Defines area of potential effect
  • Identifies historic properties in area
  • Prepares an environmental assessment, including preparation of public notices and preparation and submission of the Request for Release of Funds and Certifications
  • Where an environmental assessment has been or is conducted as a part of the project architectural process, ARa will review and process that assessment for compliance with federal and OCRA regulations
