Chapter 26 Cumulative Impacts
Chapter 26 Cumulative Impacts The Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations for implementing the National Environmental Policy Act require the assessment of cumulative Words in bold impacts in the decision-making process for proposed federal projects. and acronyms are defined in Cumulative impacts are defined as the impact on the environment which Chapter 32, results from the incremental impact of the action when added to other past, Glossary and present, and reasonably foreseeable future actions regardless of what agency Acronyms. (federal or non-federal) or person undertakes such other actions (40 CFR 1508.7). As stated in the CEQ handbook, "Considering Cumulative Effects under the National Environmental Policy Act" (CEQ 1997), cumulative impacts should be analyzed in terms of the specific resource, ecosystem, and human community being affected and should focus on effects that are truly meaningful. This chapter provides an analysis of potential cumulative impacts related to the Proposed Action, the I-5 project. The analysis was accomplished using the following four steps: Step 1 - Identify Potentially Affected Resources Resources were identified that potentially could be cumulatively affected by the I-5 project when combined with other actions (see Section 26.1, Affected Resources and Resource Boundaries). Step 2 - Establish Boundaries Spatial (i.e., location) and temporal (i.e., time) boundaries were established for the consideration of other potentially cumulative actions (see Section 26.1, Affected Resources and Resource Boundaries). Step 3 - Identify Potentially Cumulative Actions Other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future actions were identified that have contributed, or could contribute, to cumulative impacts on the resources identified in Step 1 (see Section 26.2, Cumulative Actions).
