Alternative Arrangements
Section 1506.11 of the CEQ regulations provides for alternative arrangements to comply with NEPA when there is insufficient time to prepare an EIS.
Alternative Arrangements can be issued by CEQ, in consultation with the agency, when agency action is:
- necessary to protect human health or safety - or - to protect natural resources - or - both; and
- likely to result in significant environmental impacts.
Here is a comprehensive list of alternative arrangements made by CEQ and the Federal agencies since NEPA's inception.
