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.
