When County DPW requires environmental review, they turn to in-house experts in the Environmental Services Unit (ESU). Before DPW can begin construction, ESU conducts a thorough review to ensure the County complies with all federal, state, and local environmental regulations, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
ESU studies a wide range of resources, such as: biology, archaeological or historical resources, traffic, noise, and water quality to name a few.

Sustainability Goals
The County of San Diego’s Office of Sustainability and Environmental
Justice (OSEJ) asks each department to identify and work toward at
least five sustainability goals. These include three short-term goals
(to be completed within a year), one mid-term goal (to be completed
within one to three years), and one long-term goal (taking more than
three years to
complete). The Department of Public Works (DPW)
Environmental Services Unit is responsible for tracking and
development of the DPW’s sustainability commitments.
Progress on these goals is reviewed every quarter and shared publicly in the County’s Operational Plan and the Departmental Sustainability Annual Report, which highlights achievements for each fiscal year.
Department of Public Works (DPW) currently has three short-term goals, one mid-term, one long-term, along with two additional annual goals. DPW Sustainability Goals.
