Relevant Plans, Reports, Guidelines, Studies and Standards – These existingdocuments may be available from Developers, the Town of Buckeye, MAG,Arizona Game & Fish, Maricopa County, etc.1.2.7. Existing Topography/Mapping to be used shall be from the Flood ControlDistrict of Maricopa County (10-foot contours shall be used when available).Additional mapping may be obtained from the Maricopa County Assessor.1.2.8. Identification of Special Interest Areas – These may include areas whereadditional right-of-way may be required for drainage improvements, largecuts/fill, major utilities, crossing the CAP canal, Whispering Ranch, freewaycrossings, or areas where reduced right-of-way may be necessary. The extent ofthe evaluation will focus on preliminary identification of the special interest areasand not additional detailed evaluation.1.3. Environmental Overview
Product: Technical Memorandum #2 – Environmental OverviewThe purpose of the Environmental Overview (EO) is to describe the existing environmentwithin the project area and to identify any documented potential problem areas (fatal flaws)that may be attributed to transportation improvements or potential issues that impactcandidate alternative alignment development or selection. This analysis will address all ofthe major environmental disciplines and a review of all appropriate resources. Dataobtained and evaluated under this task will be used in both Phases of this study and thedates of all reports used shall be documented. Some of this information will be gatheredearly in the project to assist Technical Memorandum #1 as needed.The Consultant will perform the following tasks and provide the appropriatedocumentation in the EO:1.3.1. Cultural Resources• Records review from the Arizona State Museum, State Historic PreservationOffice (SHPO), AZSITE, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) general landoffice (GLO) maps and other databases or resources for known historic andarchaeological resources present in the study area – a bibliography ofresources will be developed, including dates of documents,• No consultation or Class I Inventory Report will be prepared,• A windshield field review will occur.1.3.2. Biology• Conduct a records review and consultation with appropriate federal and stateagencies of the project area to determine the potential for encounteringthreatened, endangered, or proposed endangered species and designatedcritical habitats for federal, United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)and BLM, and state, Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD), listedspecies and to gain information about the physical environment, includingplant communities, native plant occurrences, topography, sensitive specieshabitat, and wildlife crossing corridors/linkage zones,• A windshield field review will occur.1.3.3. Land Use/Socioeconomic/Visual Quality• Collect data and research the land use, socioeconomic, and visual quality forthe project area, including population, employment, prime or uniqueagricultural farm land, and other socioeconomic characteristics,• Review potential Section 4(f) of the U.S. Department of Transportation Act1966, BLM, and Section 6(f) of the Land and Water Conservation Fund Actresources identified in existing databases.1.3.4.
