Which of the following is NOT considered an additional service in project programming?

Site Evaluation and Planning
Measured Drawings
Landscape Design
Environmental Impact Assessment

The correct answer is: Environmental Impact Assessment

The correct response is based on the classification of services within project programming. Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is a critical study that evaluates the potential environmental effects of a proposed project before it is allowed to proceed. It typically falls under regulatory and compliance requirements rather than being categorized as an additional service within the framework of project programming. The other options represent additional services that play a supportive role in the execution and success of a project. Site Evaluation and Planning involves analyzing site conditions and determining the best approach for development; Measured Drawings provide accurate representations of existing conditions which are essential for architectural planning; and Landscape Design focuses on enhancing the aesthetic and functional aspects of a project's outdoor spaces. These services directly contribute to the planning and development aspects of a project, while an Environmental Impact Assessment is primarily concerned with compliance and sustainability issues, which are often mandated by law and may not be considered an optional or additional service.
