An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is the official document disclosing potential impacts of proposed actions on the natural and built environment. An EIS must comply
with the National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA), which requires detailed assessment
of environmental effects and public input
related to projects that use federal funding.
As a decision-making document, an EIS is
the last step in the study process before
any final decisions are made. The Record of Decision (ROD) describes the final selected alternative chosen for the project.
