Ive heard that the Research Park development may encourage other development in the area. Is the Service evaluating all of the development in the EA?
The EA discusses trends in urbanization, traffic, noise, and other concerns expressed by the public in various proceedings related to the Research Park. The data suggests, however, that those trends will continue unabated regardless of the Services decision on the proposed transfer of easements at Corbett WMA. The County asserts that it will build the Research Park on the former Mecca Farms site regardless of the Services decision; secondary and cumulative impacts of the Research Park decision would occur under any of the alternatives the Service considers, even if the Service opted not to approve the proposal.
