Current through September 17, 2024
A project is considered to be environmentally acceptable when:
016.01 The Director has found that the project will not jeopardize the continued existence of any threatened or endangered species or result in the destruction or modification of the critical habitat of any such species; and
016.02 The plan of development minimizes, in a manner satisfactory to the Director, any adverse impacts on the natural environment and adequately addresses existing cultural resources.
In addition to any proposed mitigation measures, if applicable, all aspects of the proposed project which can be anticipated to result in environmental enhancement shall be considered in determining whether the plan of development does minimize adverse impacts. To assist the Director in determining environmental acceptance, the applicant will demonstrate the probable environmental and ecological consequences of the project by addressing all areas of study identified on the environmental acceptance form (NRC/NRDF Form 02Ev1).
