CHAPTER 4

Review of the Atkins Report

In 2011, the Department of the Interior (DOI) commissioned an independent peer review of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) to determine if (1) appropriate scientific information was used, (2) conclusions drawn from the information are reasonable, (3) significant information was omitted from consideration, and (4) interpretations of the information by the NPS are reasonable. The peer review focused on the scientific underpinning of the DEIS. The Final Report on Peer Review of the Science Used in the National Park Service’s Draft Environmental Impact Statement Drakes Bay Oyster Company Special Use Permit (Atkins Project No. 100025958; referred to here as the “Atkins report”) was released in March 2012. The committee was asked to evaluate whether the Atkins report is “fundamentally sound and materially sufficient.”
