In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the Planning Division oversees the environmental review of development projects and other major land use decisions that require discretionary approval. The purpose of the environmental review is to evaluate and disclose the potential impacts of a project, and to limit or avoid those impacts to the extent feasible so that the health and safety of the public are protected.
The environmental documents listed on this webpage are prepared by the Planning Division or a project consultant for the City of Torrance as the Lead Agency, and are provided to both decision makers and the public for their consideration and comment. Applicants for private development projects must select and retain an environmental consultant from the Qualified Environmental Consultants List. Interested consultants must submit a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) to be eligible for placement on the list. For more information on the SOQ submittal requirements, please visit the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for Placement on Qualified Environmental Consultants List. Bid information is available online at PlanetBids Invitation No. 2025-1208.
