What is the process for analyzing environmental impacts of construction projects at UCSF?
Major construction projects at UCSF require review by Campus Planning to determine whether environmental review in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) is necessary. Depending on the level of anticipated impact, some projects require an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), including public review. However the vast majority of renovation projects do not require a full EIR, but require instead a more limited environmental impact analysis, which may or may not require public review.General information on the University’s CEQA process can be found at the Office of the President website.
