Resources

The purpose of an ERI is to identify and describe the natural resources of a community. A community's natural resources - its soil, water, air, forests, fields, and waterways - are fundamental to its character. They are the foundation for its economic success and its quality of life. The protection and wise use of those resources is essential to the public health, safety, and welfare of current and future residents. The Environmental Resource Inventory provides the basis for the development of methods and steps to preserve, conserve and utilize those resources.
