Two for the price of one : Integration of NEPA and NHPA procedures

Abstract : This project reviews procedural documents from the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force that provide guidance for each service to implement the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). Through synthesizing NEPA and NHPA requirements across all services, the project considers where the two actions can be effectively integrated to reduce costs and implementation time. Case studies are used to determine the effectiveness of combining NEPA and NHPA actions and to understand how these issues are currently being addressed.
