Document Description
The proposed project is the 2026 SJCOG RTP/SCS. SJCOG is the federally designated MPO and state-recognized Regional Transportation Planning Agency for San Joaquin County and has the statutory responsibility to develop a comprehensive, minimum 20-year vision of the region’s transportation system. The 2026 RTP/SCS will cover the planning period through the year 2050. The EIR is intended to comply with CEQA. It will also require coordination with or reference to: the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (Title 23 SFR Parts 450 and 500) (FAST Act); the Federal Clean Air Act; the California Clean Air Act; California SB 375; California SB 743; California Assembly Bill 32, and California Senate Bill 32. The EIR will consider the 2026 RTP/SCS programmed projects and preferred SCS scenarios, a No Project alternative, the SCS alternative scenarios carried forward, and any alternatives to address identified significant impacts. The EIR will evaluate the potential impacts of implementing the policies and programs in the RTP in accordance with CEQA and will concentrate on the long-term environmental impacts of the RTP/SCS that extend to the 2050 planning horizon.
