Project: DesertXpress Environmental Impact Statement Client: CirclePoint

|
To provide a much needed alternative to automobile travel, DesertXpress Enterprises proposed construction and operation of a privately owned, high-speed rail line running about 200 miles on exclusive track from Victorville to Las Vegas, generally along the I-15 corridor. In early 2006, CirclePoint was designated as the third party contractor to lead the preparation of a project-level environmental impact statement for the proposed rail project. In support of this effort we have created a series of ten thematic maps including project description, environmental justice, prime farmland, geologic hazards, hazardous materials, land use, ownership, noise and visual resources for a total of 65+ maps, over a 3-year process.
