Description

The Environmental Assessment (EA) was prepared in accordance with U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) guidelines, implementing the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). The EA evaluates the environmental impacts of the proposed Biomedical Research Facility II (BRF II) laboratory expansion at the University of Texas at Brownsville/Texas Southmost College (UTB) campus. The NIH aims to partially fund this project, addressing the critical need for modern laboratory space to support transdisciplinary biomedical research. The No Action Alternative was also considered, but it would not meet the project’s purpose and need. Despite minor design changes, potential environmental impacts associated with the Proposed Action were deemed negligible or minor and mitigable.
