Local Environmental Impact Review: Integrating Land Use and Planning through Local Environmental Impact Reviews

This article begins by discussing the role of environmental impact review statutes, starting with NEPA, the genesis of environmental impact review (EIR). The article then segues into an exploration of the environmental impact review statutes in New York, California and Washington, discussing the process and procedures required under those statutes. Methods of EIR that foster integration with local planning and land use regulation are highlighted. The planning procedures in those states as well as authority for local governments to enact EIR statutes are discussed. The paper also addresses the authority available to local governments to initiate local EIR statutes and to integrate EIR with local planning. A local environmental impact statute adopted in South Carolina is presented, illustrating how local governments in states without SEPAs can implement EIR. Finally, this article discusses methods of integrating EIR with local planning processes in an effort to streamline local approval processes and provide for more effective and far-reaching protection of the environment. Local EIR illustrates how land use regulation and environmental law intersect to achieve comprehensive environmental protection

Fe I and Fe II Abundances of Solar-Type Dwarfs in the Pleiades Open Cluster

We have derived Fe abundances of 16 solar-type Pleiades dwarfs by means of an equivalent width analysis of Fe I and Fe II lines in high-resolution spectra obtained with the Hobby - Eberly Telescope and High Resolution Spectrograph. Abundances derived from Fe II lines are larger than those derived from Fe I lines (herein referred to as over-ionization) for stars with Teff < 5400 K, and the discrepancy (deltaFe = [Fe II/H] - [Fe I/H]) increases dramatically with decreasing Teff, reaching over 0.8 dex for the coolest stars of our sample. The Pleiades joins the open clusters M 34, the Hyades, IC 2602, and IC 2391, and the Ursa Major moving group, demonstrating ostensible over-ionization trends. The Pleiades deltaFe abundances are correlated with Ca II infrared triplet and Halpha chromospheric emission indicators and relative differences therein. Oxygen abundances of our Pleiades sample derived from the high-excitation O I triplet have been previously shown to increase with decreasing Teff, and a comparison with the deltaFe abundances suggests that the over-excitation (larger abundances derived from high excitation lines relative to low excitation lines) and over-ionization effects that have been observed in cool open cluster and disk field main sequence (MS) dwarfs share a common origin. Star-to-star Fe I abundances have low internal scatter, but the abundances of stars with Teff < 5400 K are systematically higher compared to the warmer stars. The cool star [Fe I/H] abundances cannot be connected directly to over-excitation effects, but similarities with the deltaFe and O I triplet trends suggest the abundances are dubious. Using the [Fe I/H] abundances of five stars with Teff > 5400 K, we derive a mean Pleiades cluster metallicity of [Fe/H] = +0.01 +/- 0.02.Comment: 32 pages, 7 figures, 7 tables; accepted by PAS

The tone system of Foodo nouns

This thesis presents an autosegmental analysis of the tone system of the nouns of Foodo, a Guang language of Benin. The goal is to give an analysis of the tone system of nouns that will account for all the surface tonal phenomena by positing two underlying tones. Foodo nouns consist of a stem together with its class prefix and/or suffix; while tonal alternations in prefixes are easily explained by two tone rules, the suffixes exhibit rather complex alternations. Many of the theoretical assumptions of lexical phonology, (especially the view that most lexical rules are cyclic and Kiparsky\u27s Elsewhere Condition) allow for a simple and straightforward account of these tonal alternations. This thesis assumes Pulleyblank\u27s (1986:78-82) version of the Association Convention which excludes automatic multiple-linking and automatic spreading. A secondary goal of this thesis is to address certain theoretical issues in light of the analysis contained herein. Chapter 6 shows that cyclic application of rules is necessary in the lexical component of a Foodo grammar, thus lending support to the claim of lexical phonology that rule application in the lexical component may be cyclic. This chapter also discusses the issue of what constitutes a tone-bearing unit (TBU) in the language, and shows that current phonological theory does not provide an adequate element to serve as the TBU in Foodo

The Reason for the Addled Egg

What is so rare as a ·good egg in in September or October! If ever there come perfect eggs, it seems my tough luck to miss them. This thought no doubt comes thru the mind of many a housewife as she breaks open a dozen or more high-priced eggs, and finds only a few that are usable

Examining the relationship between loyalty and place attachment in an urban park setting

The relationship between place attachment and loyalty has been researched in a variety of recreation and tourism contexts. This study expands upon the existing literature by examining the relationship between place attachment and behavior loyalty within an urban park setting. Specifically, the relationship between the place attachment dimensions of place identity, place dependence, and social bonding with behavioral loyalty, measured by park use frequency and proportion of use in relation to other settings. Two predictive models were tested: the first examined the influence of place attachment dimensions on loyalty as tested in previous research. The second model explored the influence of loyalty on the place attachment dimension, which had been alluded to in previous studies. The data, collected from 405 participants at eight urban parks in Manhattan Beach, California, was analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). Contradicting expectations, results of the study found no significant structural paths in the first model with place attachment dimensions predicting loyalty. Interestingly, the second model with behavioral loyalty predicting place attachment indicated significant relationships between all constructs. The findings of the study indicate that for an urban park setting, frequent use of specific parks contributes to stronger place attachment
