What Does DEIS Stand For?
DEIS stands for Draft Environmental Impact Statement
The Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) is a foundational document in the environmental review process that evaluates the potential environmental effects of a proposed federal action. It provides a detailed analysis of the anticipated impacts on natural and human resources, explores alternative actions, and facilitates public participation by inviting comments from stakeholders. The DEIS is a critical step in ensuring informed decision-making and compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).
