The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), as
Lead Agency, prepared a Program Environmental Impact Report
(PEIR) (SCH#2019011061) in accordance with the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for Connect SoCal 2020
(2020-2045 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities
Strategy). The PEIR serves as a programmatic document that
conducts a region-wide assessment of potential significant
environmental effects of Connect SoCal 2020.
The Connect SoCal 2020 Draft PEIR was released Dec. 9, 2019,
for a 45-day public review and comment period, which ended
Jan. 24, 2020. A public workshop took place at SCAG’s main
office located at 900 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 1700, Los Angeles, CA
90017 on Thursday, Jan. 9, 2020, from 2 p.m. to 3:30
p.m.
Following a cooperative and comprehensive planning process with
stakeholders, SCAG incorporated public input into the Connect
SoCal 2020 Final PEIR through corrections and additions and
responding to all comments. The Final PEIR is a continuation to
the Draft PEIR and is comprised of the following: Complete
Connect SoCal 2020 Draft PEIR, Chapter 8.0, Introduction, Chapter
9.0, Response to Comments, and Chapter 10.0, Corrections and
Additions, and Appendices.
The Connect SoCal 2020 Final PEIR was certified on May 7, 2020,
by the Regional Council.
