What are the contents of an EFH Assessment?
EFH Assessments have mandatory contents that are nearly identical to the environmental assessments required under other Federal statutes. They include: 1) a description of the proposed action; 2) an analysis of the effects (including cumulative effects) of the proposed action on EFH, the managed fish species and major prey species; and, 3) the Federal agency’s views regarding the effects of the action on EFH and proposed mitigation, if applicable.
