摘要

The resources which are analyzed in this chapter were identified on the basis of (a) scoping meetings which the Air Force conducted with state and federal agencies and the public and (b) a professional interdisciplinary review of the ten general environmental issues which had been identified. These issues are: rapid, large-scale growth; land use/land rights; water resources; public health; archaeological and historical resources; energy and nonrenewable resources; terrestrial and aquatic biology; air quality; Native Americans; and construction resources.
