ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST 6kbg14 'oa6cf
Purpose of Checklist: ree4
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), chapter 43.21 C RCW, requires all
governmental agencies to consider the environmental impacts of a proposal before
making decisions. An environmental impact statement (EIS) must be prepared for all
proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment.
The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the agency
identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if
it can be done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required.
Instructions for Applicants:
This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your
proposal. Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the
environmental impacts of your proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS.
Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise information known, or give the best
description you can.
You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge.
In most cases, you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations
or project plans without the need to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer,
or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or "does not
apply". Complete answers to the questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later.
Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and
landmark designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the
governmental agencies can assist you.
The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them
over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information
that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which
you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional
information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact.
Use of Checklist for Non-project Proposals:
Complete this checklist for non-project proposals, even though questions may be
answered "does not apply". IN ADDITION, complete the SUPPLEMENTAL ACTIONS
(part D).
