The Department of General Services and Caltrans
are committed to being a good neighbor in developing their new
Caltrans District 7 Headquarters. In planning the building,
The Department of General Services and Caltrans will examine
issues such as traffic, architecture, landscaping, noise, air
quality and other concerns. The Department of General Services
and Caltrans wants to build a headquarters building that will
contribute to a vital and prosperous neighborhood for living
and working.
The project will undergo a twelve-month Environmental
Impact Report (EIR) process. The EIR is a document that provides
government agencies and the general public with detailed information
about the effects that the new headquarters is likely to have
on the environment. The EIR also determines the way in which
significant impacts might be minimized or eliminated ("mitigated")
and whether there are any alternatives to the project that would
avoid or reduce potential project impacts.
