2014 Technical Manual

*Applicability of the CEQR Technical Manual:* The CEQR Technical Manual (2014 Edition) was used as guidance for environmental reviews commenced between March 14, 2014 and December 23, 2020.

This version of the manual is here for reference purposes ONLY and should NOT be used as the guidance for conducting new environmental reviews. The CEQR Technical Manual, November 2020 Edition, should be used for impact analyses commenced on or after December 24, 2020. In the case of impact analyses commenced prior to the release date that are not considered complete as of such date - through the issuance of a Negative Declaration, a Conditional Negative Declaration, or a Final Environmental Impact Statement - the lead agency should consider whether supplementation of the impact analyses to reflect a methodology of the updated CEQR Technical Manual should be conducted, taking into account as necessary the scheduled time of completion of the environmental review under the applicable regulatory approval process.
