Review
"...this manual is a powerful tool to the NEPA practitioner." --
Donald M. Conlon, Executive Agent, HQDA NEPA Support Team, Mobile District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers"The NEPA Reference Guide is a particularly useful tool for lawyer and non-lawyer alike. It assembles in one place the basic NEPA documents plus summaries of the NEPA cases all keyed to an excellent and user-friendly index." --
Nicholas C. Yost; Partner, Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal, Former General Counsel of CEQ"The NEPA Reference Guide is an essential desk reference for the NEPA professional and the serious student of NEPA as both a legal and practical environmental planning process. It is clearly written and exceptionally well- cross referenced. It will save you time even as it provides you with multiple references on key NEPA principles and concepts." --
Thomas H. Magness III; Course Director/Instructor, Continuing Education Program, Duke University"The NEPA Reference Guide is an excellent compendium of relevant NEPA information. It includes the statue along with regulations and guidance from the President's Council on Environmental Quality. In addition, The Guide displays appropriate Executive Orders, summaries of important NEPA litigation, and a description of EPA's environmental review procedures. The Guide, featuring a handy index, is a much needed and extremely valuable tool. Environmental practitioners, administrators, and students will find The Guide to be a welcome addition to their professional libraries." --
