The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) ensures that state and local agencies evaluate and disclose potential environmental impacts before approving projects. As the lead agency under CEQA, LADWP conducts detailed studies to identify possible effects and implements mitigation measures to protect California’s environment.
