It is primarily a guidebook but it is also a history told after the first chapter in geographical rather than chronological sequence.--Jacket blurb. The Federal Writers' Project was one of five independent branches of the Works Progress Administration WPA established in the summer of 1935 by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Unlike the Civilian Conservation Corps 1932 where young men worked on roads bridges and dams the Works Progress Administration employed non-construction workers as well as laborers. In Oregon the Federal Writers' Project was the most visible white-collar agency of the WPA."--The Oregon Encyclopedia. Illustrated with 26 photographs and a colored map. The book was sponsored by the Oregon Trail Memorial Association. </em></p> Hastings House hardcover

It describes the positive and negative environmental effects of a proposed action and it usually also lists one or more alternative actions that may be chosen instead of the action described in the EIS. Several U.S. state governments require that a document similar to an EIS be submitted to the state for certain actions. For example in California an Environmental Impact Report EIR must be submitted to the state for certain actions as described in the California Environmental Quality Act CEQA.
