EPS is thrilled to welcome three exceptional interns this summer through the Environmental, Engineering, and Planning Internship and Charrette (EEPIC) program! EPS is proud to participate alongside fellow planning and environmental consulting firms—including Ascent, ESA, Dudek, Placeworks, Rincon, and Fehr & Peers. We’re especially grateful to Ascent for their leadership in coordinating the EEPIC program.
EEPIC is a unique, hands-on internship experience designed to open doors for students from communities historically under-represented in the planning and environmental fields. Anchored by an intensive two-week charrette, the program provides real-world exposure to urban planning challenges, mentorship from professionals, and cross-firm collaboration.
This year’s charrette project is entitled “Reimagining Golden Gate Fields,” and focuses on understanding development opportunities and challenges for a 140-acre former horse racetrack located along the San Francisco Bay Shoreline, straddling both the Albany and Berkeley waterfronts. Interns are engaging in land use scenario planning, learning core planning and analytical concepts through training sessions led by professionals across participating firms, and concluding with a final presentation to local government representatives.
We’re excited to continue supporting the next generation of planners and look forward to the contributions our EEPIC interns will bring to EPS this summer!
EPS recently joined a multi-disciplinary consultant team led by De Novo Planning Group to kick off the City of Temecula’s General Plan Update, a planning process that will provide a blueprint for the City’s growth over the next 20 plus years.
As part of the General Plan team, EPS will provide an analysis of existing socioeconomic, demographic, and real estate market conditions; conduct a fiscal impact analysis of land use alternatives; and support the development of a new Economic Development Element. Our work will help the City plan for fiscally sustainable growth, identify opportunities for economic development, and align land use policies with long-term community goals.
EPS is proud to support the City of Temecula—one of Southern California’s most dynamic communities—in laying the groundwork for a resilient and thriving future.
