#3 Generaly, Glenmore, you are correct.

Legally, there are limitations, and if you avoid involving the US government, you can get off easier.

In 1991, there was a proposal to build a $6 billion high-speed rail project in Texas. An EIS was not required, (no Federal money), but I agreed that it would be madness to try to avoid it - it was just too big. Southwest Airlines would've gone to the mat to assure an EIS was performed.
