This document outlines the 7 steps for assessing and predicting impacts on soil attributes from a project. The steps are: 1) delineating the study area, 2) identifying project activities, 3) preparing a description of existing soil resources, 4) procuring soil quality and quantity standards, 5) predicting impacts on soil environment, 6) assessing impact significance, and 7) identifying and incorporating mitigation measures. For each step, the document provides further explanation of processes like examining land use, identifying direct land and environmental impacts, and describing mitigation options for soil erosion and groundwater pollution.
