Primary impacts and, particularly, secon- <br />dary impacts (such as a highway improvement which provides <br />access to a nonaccessible area) generally co~~it future <br />generations to similar uses. Also irreversible damage can <br />result from environmental accidents associated with the <br />Project. Irretrievable commitments of resources should be <br />evaluated to assure that such current consumption is <br />justified. <br /> <br />g. <br /> <br />[§ 611) <br /> <br />The Growth-Inducing Impact <br />of the Plan <br /> <br />. Discuss the ways in which the Plan for the Project <br />'could foster economic or population growth, either directly <br />or indirectly, in the surrounding environment. Included in <br />this are projects which would remove obstacles to population <br />growth, e.g., a major expansion of a waste water treatment <br />plant might allow for more construction in service areas. <br />Increases in the population may further tax existing communi- <br />ty service facilities so consideration must be given to this <br />impact. Also discuss the characteristics of some projects <br />which may encourage and facilitate other activities that <br />could significantly affect the environment, either indivi- <br />dually or cumulatively. It must not be assumed that growth <br />in any area is necessarily beneficial, detrimental, or of <br />little significance to the envirçnment. <br /> <br />4. <br /> <br />[§ 612) <br /> <br />Organizations arid Persons <br />Consulted <br /> <br />The identity 'of all federal, state, or local agencies, <br />other organizations and private individuals consulted in <br />preparing the Draft EIR, and the identity of the persons, <br />firm or agency preparing the Draft EIR, by contract or other <br />authorization must be given. <br /> <br />5. <br /> <br />[5 613) <br /> <br />Water Quality Aspects <br /> <br />Describe in the Section on the description of the envi- <br />ronmental setting, water quality aspects of the Plan which <br />have been previously certified by the appropriate state or <br />interstate organization as being ip,substantial compliance <br />with applicable water quality standards. <br /> <br />-16- <br /> <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />I' <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />t, <br />I' <br />, , <br />, <br /> <br />."" <br />- - <br /> <br />"I <br />: <br />
