Supplemental EIS for Clark County Regional Flood Control District
Clark County, Nevada
Overview:
SWCA was selected by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Las Vegas Field Office to prepare a supplemental environmental impact statement (SEIS) for the Clark County Regional Flood Control District (CCRFCD) 2002 Master Plan. The SEIS analyzed the impacts of current and future master-planned flood control facilities within the Las Vegas Valley.
Services Provided:
- Prepared SEIS, coordinated process
- Public scoping
- Biological and cultural surveys
- Advances GIS and data management systems
- Visual resources, socioeconomic, recreational and environmental justice studies
- Analysis of soil, air quality, water and hazardous materials
Results:
This SEIS project supported the CCRFCD’s Master Plan and enabled the organization to maintain substantial flexibility while implementing its plans. SWCA prepared a GIS-based tool for assessing the impacts associated with proposed flood control facilities. In addition to allowing greater consistency in day-to-day facility planning efforts, the tool will make future large-scale analyses more efficient.
