potential to degrade the
quality of the environment,
substantially reduce the

species, cause a fish or

b. Does the project have the
potential to achieve short
term, to the disadvantage of
long-term, environmental
goals? (A short-term impact
on the environment is one

will endure well into the
future. )

c. Does the project have impacts
which are individually
limited, but cumulatively
considerable? (A project may
impact on two or more separate
resources where the impact on

the environment is
significant. )
