PQP-Others Flashcards
How is the Area of Probable Impact determined?
By measurements, previous studies, models or best professional judgment, and may vary by environmental component.
Define Area of Probable Impact
the extent of the area outside of the project area that is likely to be directly or indirectly impacted by the proposed project.
A systematic process of objectively obtaining and assessing evidence, including physical inspections and verification.
Audit
Name examples of conservation measures
external shading, orientation, system efficiencies, on-site renewable technologies
Cost of a unit of energy or power
Energy rate
An attribute or constituent of the environment that may be impacted by the proposed project.
Environmental component
