Notice of Preparation of Supplement to the Environmental Impact Report for the 2021 Regional Plan and Public Scoping Meeting Notice

In accordance with state and federal law, SANDAG developed the 2021 Regional Plan, which included both the region’s RTP and SCS, and achieved the 2020 and 2035 GHG emissions reduction targets set by CARB. On December 10, 2021, the SANDAG Board of Directors adopted the 2021 Regional Plan and certified the Final Program EIR for the 2021 Regional Plan. Following adoption of the 2021 Regional Plan, the SANDAG Board directed staff to prepare a focused amendment to the 2021 Regional Plan without the regional road usage charge (Project), and an environmental analysis for the Board’s consideration. A road usage charge is a direct user fee where drivers pay to use the roadway network, whether the vehicle is powered by gas or electricity or hydrogen, based on distance traveled or other factors.
