INVENTORY OF EXISTING CONDITIONS <br />specific environmental resource categories by outlining impacts and thresholds at which the impacts are <br />considered significant. For some environmental resource categories, this determination can be made <br />through calculations, measurements, or observations. However, other environmental resource categories <br />require that the determination be established through correspondence with appropriate federal, state, <br />and/or local agencies. A complete evaluation of the environmental resource categories identified in <br />Orders 1050.1F and 5050.4B is required during a categorical exclusion, environmental assessment or <br />environmental impact statement. <br /> <br />Future development plans at the Airport take into consideration environmental resources that are known <br />to exist in the vicinity of the Airport. Early identification of these environmental resources help avoid <br />impeding development plans in the future. <br /> <br />This section provides an overview of resource categories defined in Order 1050.1F, Chapter 4, as it applies <br />to the environs at, and surrounding, the Airport. Table 1-14 provides a summary of the environmental <br />resource categories studied for the Master Plan Update. <br /> <br />TABLE 1-14 <br />SUMMARY OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCE CATEGORIES STUDIED <br />Environmental Resource Description <br />Air QualityThe Eugene/Springfield area in maintenance for Particulate Matter-10 <br />(PM) and for Carbon Monoxide (CO).
