Abstract: . . . Index To assist the readers, a cross-referenced index (i.e., Concordance or Disposition Table), which shows where the content and issues outlined in the Final EIA Guidelines are addressed in the report, is required. This index must be submitted with the Draft EIA Report/EIS. Page 12 of 14 4.0 POTENTIAL IMPACTS Presented here are a number of specific issues for study. However, this framework does not limit the assessment. Should additional relevant issues, concerns, or potentially significant environmental . . . . . . discussion with members of the TRC, regulatory agencies, the public, ***or other stakeholders, JDI must incorporate these issues into the assessment. The assessment must include consideration of, but is not limited to, the appropriate regulations and guidelines. The capacity of renewable resources that are likely to be significantly affected by the project (either positively or negatively) to meet the needs of the present and those of the future should also be considered. Cumulative environmental . . . . . . variability and climate change must be identified and discussed. Not only will the assessment look at the current climatic setting in the area, but must also include a consideration of the potential future climatic conditions due to climate changes in the foreseeable future.

Discuss any aesthetic/potential visual impacts of the proposed project. The effect of the proposed project on physical and cultural heritage, and any structure, site or thing that is of historical, archaeological, paleontological or architectural significance must also be included. The effect . . . . . .
