 Environmental Impact Report - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is a document required under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
It describes a particular project location in its existing setting, describes the impacts which a project will have on the environment both on and adjacent to the property, and proposes mitigation measures.
It is similar to an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) as required by the NEPA.

 Profile of the Mono Basin Environmental Impact Report
EIRs are typically voluminous documents that are directly proportional in size to the complexity of the project that they analyze.
The Environmental Impact Report for the Review of the Mono Basin Water Rights of the City of Los Angeles (Mono Basin EIR), prepared for the California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), is no exception.
Although the Mono Basin EIR is probably the most comprehensive source of scientific information on the Mono Basin, some conclusions based on that information are open to debate.

The Geology and Soils section of the LRDP EIR should be based on a generalized summary of geologic and seismic activity and features, such as faults in the region, as well as a description of topographic and hydrologic features, slope, soil and substrate characteristics, groundwater elevations, and other geotechnical conditions that could affect structures.
