Filling out the Project Environmental Data Sheet (PEDS Sample Clauses

Filling out the Project Environmental Data Sheet (PEDS. With the exception of LPA projects, most projects will have a PEDS. The PEDS is not an environmental requirement but an additional aid developed by EP to aid in the contracting process. The overall purpose of the PEDS is to determine whether a consultant is necessary and then to provide the on-call environmental consultant with a general scope of work, an estimate of tasks that will be required for the project, and a rough estimate of hours anticipated for the contractor. The cultural resources section of the PEDS has an additional purpose as well, as described below. The Environmental Planner is responsible for coordinating the PEDS, and will fill out the first section with general project information before sending the PEDS to the technical specialists, including HPT Staff. The technical specialists have one week to complete the appropriate sections of the PEDS and return it to the Environmental Planner. In order to fill out the PEDS, the HPT Staff will need to define an Area of Potential Effects (APE) and conduct background research regarding previous investigations within the APE. Guidance for defining an APE and conducting background research are both described in greater detail below. The PEDS serves as a high-level roadmap for the environmental review and a tool to assist the consultant in developing a scope and fee. It also serves as a decision tree for HPT to assess whether or not a cultural resources consultant will be needed for the project. The Cultural Resources section of the PEDS requires the HPT Staff to provide the following information: • Consultant services requested? • Prior survey? • APE completely surveyed? • APE partially surveyed? Details? • Additional survey required? Details? • Sites in project area? • Previous consultation? • Consultation documentation available? • New consultation required? • List applicable PA stipulations. • List consulting parties for current undertaking—both agencies and Tribes. • Identify deliverables and projected due dates. Filling out the PEDS generally requires the HPT Staff to conduct background research in addition to defining an APE. Often there is only preliminary information regarding the project at the time the PEDS is completed, so it is important to save the results of the background research in the project folder so that when the SOW and project limits are further refined during the project development process, it won’t be necessary to duplicate efforts to find previous reports and consultation...
