The Effect of Military Transportation Activities on the Environment,

Abstract

The study reported was undertaken to evaluate the impact of military transportation activities upon related environmental attributes. The military activities were related to their impact on these attributes by means of a matrix. This matrix used a scale to identify the magnitude and probability of the impact. Additionally, known mitigation and abatement practices that can be used to minimize adverse environmental impacts were identified and briefly described. The principal conclusion was that this technique provided a first approximation for assessing the effect of military transportation on the environment.
