Its purpose is to help you to: Recognize the federal environmental requirements and factor in the associated expenses for the project; Designate the responsible party to fulfill these requirements; Complete the requirements by filing the necessary paperwork, performing the required activities, and obtaining the essential permits; and Identify additional sources of information to help implement these requirements throughout your project.
