Choose one of these factors, which are found in Chapters Five through Nine. Discuss the importance of evaluating the chosen factor within the context of a proposed project. Discuss any difficulties that might be present when determining the cumulative impacts. Provide a minimum of one example from a project within your local area. The paper must be at least two pages in length and formatted according to APA style. You must use at least two scholarly resources other than the textbook to support your claims and subclaims. Cite your resources in text and on the reference page. For information regarding APA samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center, within the Learning Resources tab on the left navigation toolbar, in your online course.
