Natural Resource Information (NRI) Reports

 

NATURAL RESOURCE INFORMATION (NRI) REPORTS:

NRI Reports provide natural resource information to officials of the local governing body and other decision makers. The report intends to present the most current natural resource information available in an understandable format. It contains a description of the present conditions and resources available and their potential impact on each other. This information may be useful when undertaking land use decisions concerning variations, amendments or relief of local zoning ordinances, proposed subdivision of vacant or agricultural lands, and the subsequent development of these lands.

This report is required under 94 Act Ill Complied Statues, Chapter 70 Paragraph 405/1 Et Seq. and Ill Revised Statues, Chapter 5 Paragraph 106 Et Seq. The natural resource information is gathered from standardized data, on-site investigations, and information furnished by the petitioner. The conclusions of the NRI in no way indicate the impossibility of a certain land use, however, it should alert the reader to possible problems that may occur if the capabilities of the land are ignored.

NRI Reports can be ordered by completing the application linked below, and submitting it to the District’s Resource Conservationist, Alyse Olson, at Alyse.Olson@il.nacdnet.net
