The EIS Book

Written by a leading national expert, Charles H. Eccleston, this book provides detailed direction for preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), highlighting best professional practices (BBP), and lessons learned from case law that provide valuable direction for preparing legally defensible analyses. This book is not about preparing bigger or more complicated EISs—but better ones. Beginning with fundamental topics and advancing into advanced subjects, Eccleston describes EIS preparation as a comprehensive framework for planning future actions, rather than merely a document preparation process.
