What alternatives and impacts are addressed in the TAPS Renewal EIS?
The TAPS Renewal EIS will assess the environmental impacts associated with the TAPS owners’ proposal to renew the existing 30-year grant of the right-of-way for the Trans-Alaska Pipeline, environmental impacts associated with renewal of the grant of right-of-way for a period of less than thirty years, and impacts associated with the “no-action alternative” of not renewing the Federal Grant, in which case TAPS would be dismantled and the aboveground portions removed.
