   Subpart B_General Policy: Responsibilities of Responsible Entities

 

Sec.  58.14  Interaction with State, Federal and non-Federal entities.



    A responsible entity shall consult with appropriate environmental 

agencies, State, Federal and non-Federal entities and the public in the 

preparation of an EIS, EA or other environmental reviews undertaken 

under the related laws and authorities cited in Sec.  58.5 and Sec.  

58.6. The responsible entity must also cooperate with other agencies to 

reduce duplication between NEPA and comparable environmental review 

requirements of the State (see 40 CFR 1506.2 (b) and (c)). The 

responsible entity must prepare its EAs and EISs so that they comply 

with the environmental review requirements of both Federal and State 

laws unless otherwise specified or provided by law. State, Federal and 

local agencies may participate or act in a joint lead or cooperating 

agency capacity in the preparation of joint EISs or joint environmental 

assessments (see 40 CFR 1501.5(b) and 1501.6). A single EIS or EA may be 

prepared and adopted by multiple users to the extent that the review 

addresses the relevant environmental issues and there is a written 

agreement between the cooperating agencies which sets forth the 

coordinated and overall responsibilities.
