Overview
Corridor development projects for construction of transportation, transmission lines, and pipelines may significantly affect cultural and natural resources. Review the definition of corridors and identify laws and regulations that may apply to the proposed project. Understand the range of participants involved in the process—from project proponents and consultants, to government agencies and affected communities. Consider timing and planning, including comprehensive resource identification and effective communication practices. Corridor projects benefit from decisions that provide an inclusive analysis of effects and minimize resource disturbance.
