| dc.description.abstract | The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 created the requirement that environmental impact statements must be issued for all major federal actions significantly affecting the quality of the environment. Administrative and technical interpretation of this Act has led to the incorporation of secondary as well as primary effects into a procedurally correct EIS. Secondary effects are induced effects, or changed patterns of economic activity, due to the construction of the project. AS such, secondary effects may be more significant than primary effects, yet few EIS's to date have adequately discussed secondary effects. An in depth core study of Chocolate Bayou, Texas, a Corps of Engineers Channelization project, is presented in this thesis to determine the secondary effects ensuing therefrom. | en_US |
