SB 3152 - Defining "cultural impact" in the EIS process
RELATING TO ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENTS.
Defines "cultural assessment" and "cultural impact assessment". Requires cultural assessments to be available for public review and comment in connection with draft environmental assessments. Requires a cultural impact assessment if an agency determines a proposed action may have a significant effect on the environment.
This bill aims to clarify terms in which the state will handle future situations concerning EIS processes.
Yes, you're right. Nobody trusts the state. But we've got to make a change and we've got to start somewhere.
To continue to smash our heads against the same wall while expecting different results is the definition of insanity.
Please click the word testimony and just state what you have to say on the site. We are not going to tell you how to feel about it or where to stand. We are telling you to use your voice and stop it with the generational trauma. Our kids are depending on us to survive.
How are they supposed to work with foundations that are not built by us and for us?
