"This report summarizes a field study by Thorne Ecological Institute that resulted in 26 technical papers as well as current literature relating to selected components of the environment and the probably effects of various alternatives of oil shale development upon those components. This study is one of four comprising the Regional Oil Shale Study authorized and administered by the Department of Natural Resources of the State of Colorado. The objectives of the Environmental Inventory Analysis and Impact Study were (1) to examine a number of the more sensitive components of the ecosystem and to establish baselines from which changes in the environment due to oil shale development could be evaluated and (2) to evaluate the effects of a series of alternatives and the long-range consequences for all interrelated aspects of physical and human environments"--Page i. |
