As the first UC campus constructed since the passage of the CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act), the NEPA (National Environmental Protection Act), and the Clean Water Act, the project being held to extremely high standards.

Many of the documents are quite large and available only in PDF format, others are of much more manageable size and available as viewable HTML. The documents on this site have been arranged in tables which indicate the file size and file format for your convenience. Users with more powerful computers and high speed connections should have no problem accessing these documents on line. Users with slower computers and dial-up connections may want to avoid accessing documents of very large file sizes.

Documents can also be obtained through Patti Istas with the University of California or from Robert Smith with the County of Merced.
