Federal law requires certain environmental studies and analysis for Federal land. More common environmental studies may include: air quality, cultural resources, hazardous wastes, floodplains, hydrology, lands and realty, minerals, Native American consultation, recreation, soils, socioeconomic, threatened and endangered animals and plants, vegetation, wildlife, and wetlands/riparian issues. An appraisal for the property must also be completed. The cost of these necessary studies will vary depending upon the complexity of the task, acreage, and other factors, but some individual studies can be several thousand dollars.
