Learn more about “Environmental Impact Assessments”

Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) are crucial tools mandated by the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to evaluate the potential effects of proposed actions on the environment. For the American Wild Horse Conservation (AWHC), EIAs are particularly significant as they ensure that any management decisions regarding wild horses and burros are made transparently and with public input. AWHC actively monitors and comments on EIAs related to wild horse management, advocating for thorough assessments that consider the ecological impacts of actions such as roundups and habitat alterations. By promoting robust EIAs, AWHC aims to protect wild horse populations and their habitats, ensuring sustainable management practices that align with environmental preservation goals.
