“[I learned] the breadth of ways cultural resources should be incorporated into NEPA; variety of laws, regulations, E.A.s that should be considered.”
“[The seminar] showed me the importance of looking at impacts more broadly both direct and indirect in regards to the cultural environment.”
“[I learned] the difference between NHPA and NEPA and how they come together.”
