Explore production-tested workflows that environmental teams deploy to keep CEQA and NEPA deliverables responsive, defensible, and on schedule. Each use case pairs automation tactics with the exact statutory hooks they need to satisfy.
CEQA.ai coordinates document production, structured evidence gathering, and mitigation oversight. The workflows below map to statutory checkpoints, record-keeping expectations, and audit triggers across the CEQA Guidelines and Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations.
Implement them individually or stitch them together as an end-to-end delivery chain spanning baseline data, impact analysis, alternatives, mitigation monitoring, agency coordination, and litigation readiness.
Each card surfaces the operational challenge it solves, the deliverables CEQA.ai automates, and the CEQA / NEPA citations that back up the approach.
Automate ingestion, spatial reconciliation, and QA/QC on biological, hydrological, and socio-economic datasets. Ensure the environmental setting chapter is complete before impact modeling begins.
Reconcile NOP/NOS feedback, public scoping comments, and resource agency correspondence into scoped topic matrices. Generate agendas for technical team kickoff sessions automatically.
Build reproducible multi-criteria analyses that score project alternatives against objectives, feasibility, and environmental advantages. Export narrative-ready comparison tables instantly.
Centralize mitigation measures, responsible parties, triggers, and verification tasks. Generate board and council-ready status dashboards without manual spreadsheet wrangling.
Route, draft, and QC public and agency comments with AI co-pilots while retaining human approvals. Maintain a structured response log ready for certification and Record of Decision packages.
Maintain versioned administrative records, substantial evidence logs, and privilege-filtered exports. Trigger alerts when project changes risk supplemental review thresholds.
