Growth FAQ - Engineering

What issues must be addressed in an Environmental Impact Analysis?

Per Sec. 5-55(b), TLDC, an Environmental Impact Analysis must address the following:

  • A project narrative describing the scope of work.
  • An overlay map showing the conservation and preservation areas and the proposed project.
  • A site plan with a boundary delineation of all conservation or preservation areas, labeled conservation easements, location of all protected trees, a drainage basin map, and typical site plan information, including contours, existing and proposed improvements, existing and proposed utilities, including electrical services and similar features.
  • An environmental impact analysis that describes and quantifies the project's impact from the proposed development activities on the natural features identified in the natural features inventory.
  • A mitigation narrative that describes the measures taken to prevent or mitigate the adverse effects of the proposed development on the conservation and preservation areas identified in the natural features inventory.
  • Supporting information can include drainage calculations, soil borings, geotechnical information, retaining wall designs, photographs, other environmental narratives, wetland hydrocycle information, habitat management plans for listed species, vegetation management plans, canopy road tree protection zone impact analysis and mitigation plan, and similar.
  • Other environmental narratives, habitat conservation/management plans or vegetation management plans.
  • A habitat conservation/management plan is required for development activity that affects listed species.
  • Vegetation management plans are required when an applicant desires to selectively remove or manage vegetation in any conservation area. The purpose of a management plan is to allow selective use of the conservation area, while at the same time protecting the overall purpose of the conservation area/easement.
  • A canopy road tree protection zone impact analysis and mitigation plan is required when impact is proposed within the canopy road tree protection zone.
