A quick definition of EIS:

Term: EIS

Definition: EIS stands for Environmental Impact Statement. An Environmental Impact Statement is a report that explains how a project or action might affect the environment. It helps people understand the potential consequences of a project and how to minimize any negative impacts on the environment.

A more thorough explanation:

EIS

EIS stands for Environmental Impact Statement. It is a report that describes the potential environmental effects of a proposed project or action. The report is used to inform decision-makers and the public about the potential impacts and to help them make informed decisions.

For example, if a company wants to build a new factory, they would need to prepare an EIS. The report would describe the potential impacts of the factory on the environment, such as air and water pollution, noise, and traffic. The report would also describe any measures the company plans to take to minimize or mitigate these impacts.

Another example would be if a government agency wants to build a new highway. They would need to prepare an EIS that describes the potential impacts of the highway on the environment, such as habitat destruction, noise, and air pollution. The report would also describe any measures the agency plans to take to minimize or mitigate these impacts.

EIS is an important tool for ensuring that proposed projects and actions are carefully considered before they are approved. By describing the potential environmental impacts and proposing measures to mitigate those impacts, decision-makers can make informed decisions that balance the needs of the project with the needs of the environment and the public.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)

Sent an app to OSU in early december and have STILL not heard back
Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.
