Project Phases & Key Milestones


Developing an LRDP is a collaborative, multi-year process that brings together students, faculty, staff, and community stakeholders. Their perspectives help shape a plan that aligns with shared priorities, advances academic and research excellence, and reinforces UC Irvine’s role as a responsible environmental steward and valued community partner.

    Development of a long-term campus framework aligned with UC Irvine’s academic, research and sustainability priorities.
  2. Community Engagement
    Collaboration with students, faculty, staff, neighbors, and regional partners to gather input and build shared understanding.
  3. Environmental Review
    Comprehensive analysis conducted under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to assess potential impacts and mitigation strategies.
  4. Public Review & Feedback
    Opportunities for the public to review and comment on a draft of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR).
  5. Finalization & Adoption
  6. Preparation of the final EIR and presentation of the proposed LRDP to the UC Board of Regents for consideration and adoption.
