Proposal to Provide
<br />Environmental (CEQAINEPA) Consulting Services
<br />can range from roughly $55,000 to $200,000. For very complex or highly controversial projects, costs
<br />can exceed $200,000.
<br />In reality, the scope of work for most EIR.s typically does not include all issues as the documents are
<br />most often focused on several key issues of relevance to 1. the particular project. In such a case, the cost
<br />for a relatively simple project may be lower. On the other hand, costs could potentially exceed the
<br />high end of $200,000 for projects involving multiple phases, numerous alternatives, or expanded public
<br />involvement programs that include newsletters, web page development, and other techniques.
