OPR to Host Webinars on Transportation Impacts Under Environmental Law
The Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) recently issued long-anticipated changes to a provision in California law that currently ranks traffic congestion as an environmental impact. For more details, see recent Streetsblog coverage here. The new guidelines are under a 45-day review period, with public comment being accepted until February 29.
To help educate and inform people about the upcoming changes, OPR will host two webinars in February. The webinars will give background information, go over the proposed changes, give examples of how the changes would affect various types of projects, and provide time for questions and answers.
Registration for each webinar is limited to 500 participants, but a recording will be available after the presentations on the OPR website.
OPR requests that people register for only one webinar to leave space for others, and you can always gather your colleagues and watch it together.
The webinars will be held on the following days. Click on the links below to register.
