The Erie County Department of Environment and Planning, on behalf of Erie County, has announced the commencement of the State Environmental Quality Review Act (“SEQR”) process for the proposed new Buffalo Bills football stadium in Orchard Park.  The SEQR process examines potential environmental impacts and social and economic considerations related to a proposed action and encourages communication among government agencies, project sponsors and the general public.

Today, packages of information on the SEQR process for this project were provided to interested and involved agencies. These packages include maps of a proposed Land Transfer Plan, a Project Area Plan, and a Concept Site Plan for the project.

These maps, which are not final and are intended to give an overview of the SEQR process thus far, can be viewed here .

A public scoping meeting will be held on July 14 to garner public input on the scope of the project review.
