Energy from the west: impact analysis report. Volume II: site-specific and regional impact analyses. Final report, July 1975-October 1979
This document reports the results of impact analyses conducted as a part of a three-year technology assessment of the development of six energy resources (coal, geothermal, natural gas, oil, oil shale and uranium) in eight western states (Arizona, Colorado, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah and Wyoming) during the period 1975-2000. In Volume II, six chapters report on the analysis of the likely impacts of deploying typical energy resource development technologies at sites representative of the kinds of conditions likely to be encountered in the eight-state study area. A seventh chapter describes other local impacts which might occur; and a final chapter reports the results of regional impacts.
