DOE-HDBK-1188-2006
The lists of endangered species can be found in 50 CFR 17.11 (wildlife), 50 CFR 17.12 (plants), and
50 CFR 222.23(a) (marine organisms).
Note: Some states also list species as endangered. Thus, in certain cases a state definition
would also be appropriate.
[Derived from ESA sect. 3(6) [16 U.S.C. '1532(6)], 50 CFR 17.3, 50 CFR 424.02(e)]
63. ENRICHED URANIUM. Uranium whose content of the fissile isotope uranium-235 is greater than
the 0.7 percent (by weight) found in natural uranium. (See uranium and natural uranium.) [Derived
from 10 CFR 71, 49 CFR 173.403]
64. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (EA). A concise public document that a Federal agency
prepares under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to provide sufficient evidence and
analysis to determine whether a proposed agency action would require preparation of an
environmental impact statement (EIS) or a finding of no significant impact. A Federal agency may also
prepare an EA to aid its compliance with NEPA when no EIS is necessary or to facilitate preparation
of an EIS when one is necessary.
An EA must include brief discussions of the need for the proposal, alternatives, environmental impacts
of the proposed action and alternatives, and a list of agencies and persons consulted. (See finding of
no significant impact, environmental impact statement, and National Environmental Policy Act.)
[Derived from 40 CFR 1508.9, 10 CFR 1022.4(d)]
65. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT (EIS). The detailed written statement that is
required by section 102(2)(C) of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for a proposed
major Federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. A DOE EIS is
prepared in accordance with applicable requirements of the Council on Environmental Quality NEPA
regulations in 40 CFR Parts 1500-1508, and the Department of Energy NEPA regulations in 10 CFR
Part 1021.
The statement includes, among other information, discussions of the environmental impacts of the
proposed action and all reasonable alternatives, adverse environmental effects that can not be avoided
should the proposal be implemented, the relationship between short-term uses of the human
environment and enhancement of long-term productivity, and any irreversible and irretrievable
commitments of resources. [Derived from 40 CFR 1500-1508]
66. ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE. The fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people
regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation,
and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. Fair treatment means that no group
of people, including racial, ethnic, or socioeconomic groups, should bear a disproportionate share of
the negative environmental consequences resulting from industrial, municipal, and commercial
operations or the execution of Federal, state, local, and tribal programs and policies.
