*Note regarding applicability related to Pesticides (216.2(e): The exemptions of §216.2(b)(l) and the categorical exclusions of §216.2(c)(2) such as technical assistance, education, and training are not applicable to assistance for the procurement or use of pesticides. EMMPs (Using the format provided below list the processes that comprise the activity, then for each, identify impacts requiring further consideration, and for each impact describe the mitigation and monitoring measures that will be implemented to avoid or adequately minimize the impacts. All environment, health, and safety impacts requiring further consideration, which were identified in Section F., should be addressed) Activity-specific environmental mitigation plan (Upon request, the MEO may be able to provide your project with example EMMPs that are specific to your activity.) Processes Identified Environmental Impacts Do the Impacts Require Further Consideration? Mitigation Measures Monitoring Indicators List all the processes that comprise the activity(s) (e.g. asbestos roof removal, installation of toilets, remove and replace flooring) A line should be included for each process. A single process may have several potential a separate line for each. For each impact, indicate Yes or No; if No, provide justification, e.g.,: (1) There are no applicable legal requirements including permits or reporting and (2) There is no relevant community concern and (3) Pollution prevention is not feasible or practical and (4) Does not pose a risk because of low severity, frequency, or duration For each impact requiring further consideration, describe the mitigation measures that will avoid or adequately minimize the impact. (If mitigation measures are in the IEE, quote directly from IEE.) Specify indicators to (1) determine if mitigation is in place and (2) successful. For example, visual inspections for seepage around pit latrine; sedimentation at stream crossings, etc.) Activity-specific monitoring plan Monitoring Indicators Monitoring and Reporting Frequency Responsible Parties Records Generated Specify indicators to (1) determine if mitigation is in place and (2) successful (for example, visual inspections for seepage around pit For example: “Monitor weekly, and report in quarterly reports. If XXX occurs, immediately inform Separate parties responsible for mitigation from those If appropriate, describe types of records generated by the mitigation,
