Chazen’s environmental Planning group prepares environmental analyses in support of the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA) on behalf of government agencies, institutional clients and private land development entities. Chazen’s environmental planning group has extensive experience guiding complex residential, commercial, industrial and mixed-use development projects through the SEQRA process. Our in-house expertise includes specialists in wetlands, transportation, land use, hydrogeology, biology, visual and noise impacts, fiscal and economic analysis and civil engineering who can address the range of issues that typically arise in the local review process. The environmental planning group also reviews environmental analyses on behalf of planning boards and other public sector clients.
