Physical and Environmental Planning (PEP) provides comprehensive general,
environmental, and project planning services for the Berkeley campus. PEP is also
responsible for ensuring that the campus is in compliance with the state-mandated
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
With emphasis on the early and conceptual phase of campus client's
interests and needs,
(PEP) has as its primary focus, three
broad areas:
Comprehensive Physical Planning - supports the academic and PD&C missions by providing client services that meet accademic, and student services and recreation needs while reflecting campus and community values. PEP's planning efforts, focusing on
facilities, infrastructure, recreation and open space, and environmental management, are
conducted within the framework of the campus' Long Range Development Plan (LRDP) and its
updates;
Area/Precinct Planning - provides planning services for the main campus and its precincts and
departments, and outlying properties, including serving the academic enterprise through
appropriate physical responses for urban design, historic preservation,
mobility, legibility, functional, physical and visual connections,
environmental resources management, infrastructure planning, open
space planning, and other support facilities planning; and
Program/Project Planning - provides program and development planning for the campus, including program and project definition, alternative space development, cost and
phasing scenarios, and implementation. PEP also provides CEQA compliance planning for campus-owned and leased facilities.
PEP's planning professionals and planning support
staff facilitate and coordinate the above services and to
link them
to PDC, BAS, and the campus as a whole.
PEP seeks to emphasize planning as a service that connects program and place
at all levels
to the entire campus. At the same time, it aspires to provide planning and CEQA compliance services that will reduce the
need or the
scope of consultant services, as well as reduce the length of time required to
stage projects
for implementation. PEP also plays an active role in identifying and securing financial resources to
support the campus development from non-traditional sources....most
recently through
federal transportation (ISTEA) funds.
