Statement of Environmental Review. A document prepared by DEQ and provided to the loan recipient when the Environmental Assessment indicated that significant adverse environmental impacts would not occur as a result of the project or that adverse environmental impacts had been eliminated by changes to the project. Upon receipt, the loan recipient issues Public Notice of the Statement of Environmental Review and a 30 day public comment period is provided. If there is no public response or if adverse comments are satisfactorily addressed DEQ will issue an Approval of the Statement of Environmental Review and the VCWRLF environmental review requirement is fulfilled. However, if significant adverse comments are received during the public notice period the loan recipient must prepare an Environmental Impact Statement ( EIS )
