I-280 FAQs

What is CEQA?

CEQA stands for the California Environmental Quality Act.

What is changing from the typical CEQA process?

For this project, the typical CEQA administrative process will be waived. This saves six (6) to nine (9) months in project planning time because certain tasks like initial field surveys, clearing house filings, and challenge periods will not be needed. The project will still conform with the Environmental Protection Plan.

Is there an updated I-280 project timeline?
