Book Description
The book is comprised of practical environmental and socioeconomic information which can be used in planning and implementing CEAM studies. Such information has been compiled from CEAM practices in the USA, Canada, Australia, European, and many other countries. Considerable information on step-wise CEAM processes, along with connector methods and resource-related methods and tools for predicting, mitigating, and managing cumulative effects on key Valued Ecosystem Components (VECs), is included.

Science and Decisions
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309120462
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
Risk assessment has become a dominant public policy tool for making choices, based on limited resources, to protect public health and the environment. It has been instrumental to the mission of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as well as other federal agencies in evaluating public health concerns, informing regulatory and technological decisions, prioritizing research needs and funding, and in developing approaches for cost-benefit analysis. However, risk assessment is at a crossroads. Despite advances in the field, risk assessment faces a number of significant challenges including lengthy delays in making complex decisions; lack of data leading to significant uncertainty in risk assessments; and many chemicals in the marketplace that have not been evaluated and emerging agents requiring assessment. Science and Decisions makes practical scientific and technical recommendations to address these challenges. This book is a complement to the widely used 1983 National Academies book, Risk Assessment in the Federal Government (also known as the Red Book). The earlier book established a framework for the concepts and conduct of risk assessment that has been adopted by numerous expert committees, regulatory agencies, and public health institutions. The new book embeds these concepts within a broader framework for risk-based decision-making. Together, these are essential references for those working in the regulatory and public health fields.

A Cumulative Effects Assessment and Management Framework (CEAMF) for Northeast British Columbia
Author:
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
The purpose of this report is to describe a framework to both assess & manage cumulative environmental effects in the portion of north-east British Columbia bordered to the south & west respectively by the Peace River and the Muskwa-Kechika Management Area. Volume 1 begins with an introduction that defines the meaning of a cumulative effects assessment & management framework (CEAMF). Section 2 describes the administrative context for land management in the province and in the study area. Section 3 describes the development of a database of environmental & land use information for the study area, summarizes existing environmental & land use features, identifies cumulative effects issues, and provides examples of how the database can be used to identify potential cumulative effects hot spots. Section 4 presents a process for assessing & managing cumulative effects at the project-specific & regional level and an approach for implementing the CEAMF, including the roles & responsibilities of those involved. Finally, the volume presents a set of broad recommendations for using the CEAMF and integrating it with existing plans & tools and for monitoring & managing cumulative effects. Appendices provide background & technical information on the CEAMF and its components. Volume 2 first identifies four candidate indicators for cumulative effects evaluation & management and explains the theory behind the choice of these indicators. Case studies are then presented that evaluate the applicability of the recommended indicators for Oil & Gas Commission project screening in north-east British Columbia using detailed regional data from the Blueberry & Sukunka study areas located north-west & south- west of Fort St. John. Finally, it identifies proposed ecological thresholds for north-east British Columbia and a process to implement those thresholds and enhance cumulative effects management. Appendices include a review of cumulative effects concepts, a summary of the scientific literature on indicators & thresholds used in cumulative effects assessment, and stand-alone case study reports for the Blueberry & Sukunka areas.
