Part 3 - Evaluation of the Magnitude and Importance of Project Impacts and Determination of Significance
Part 3 provides the reasons in support of the determination of significance. The lead agency must complete Part 3 for every question in Part 2 where the impact has been identified as potentially moderate to large or where there is a need to explain why a particular element of the proposed action will not, or may, result in a significant adverse environmental impact.

Based on the analysis in Part 3, the lead agency must decide whether to require an environmental impact statement to further assess the proposed action or whether available information is sufficient for the lead agency to conclude that the proposed action will not have a significant adverse environmental impact. By completing the certification on the next page, the lead agency can complete its determination of significance.

Reasons Supporting This Determination:

To complete this section:

• Identify the impact based on the Part 2 responses and describe its magnitude. Magnitude considers factors such as severity,size or extent of an impact.

• Assess the importance of the impact. Importance relates to the geographic scope, duration, probability of the impactoccurring, number of people affected by the impact and any additional environmental consequences if the impact were tooccur.

• The assessment should take into consideration any design element or project changes.

• Repeat this process for each Part 2 question where the impact has been identified as potentially moderate to large or wherethere is a need to explain why a particular element of the proposed action will not, or may, result in a significant adverseenvironmental impact.

• Provide the reason(s) why the impact may, or will not, result in a significant adverse environmental impact

• For Conditional Negative Declarations identify the specific condition(s) imposed that will modify the proposed action so thatno significant adverse environmental impacts will result.

• Attach additional sheets, as needed.

Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF, as noted, plus this additional support information
and considering both the magnitude and importance of each identified potential impact, it is the conclusion of the
as lead agency that

A. This project will result in no significant adverse impacts on the environment, and, therefore, an environmental impact statement need not be prepared. Accordingly, this negative declaration is issued.B. Although this project could have a significant adverse impact on the environment, that impact will be avoided or substantially mitigated because of the following conditions which will be required by the lead agency:
There will, therefore, be no significant adverse impacts from the project as conditioned, and, therefore, this conditioned negative declaration is issued. A conditioned negative declaration may be used only for UNLISTED actions (see 6 NYCRR 617.7(d)).

C. This Project may result in one or more significant adverse impacts on the environment, and an environmental impact statement must be prepared to further assess the impact(s) and possible mitigation and to explore alternatives to avoid or reduce those impacts. Accordingly, this positive declaration is issued.
