Land Use / Environmental Impact Review Program

Environmental Health services performs environmental health-related land use reviews as part of nearly all land use applications in order to determine whether proposed land use projects are in compliance with state and federal environmental laws, to assess the environmental risk to citizens, and to identify potential environmental liability of any land use projects to the City and County of Broomfield.

Major impact use assessments are performed to determine whether sites such as those for quarries, hazardous waste storage facilities, and cement plants comply with state and federal regulations.
