  • SMUHSD Stadium Improvement Project
    San Mateo Union High School District NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF AN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT SMUHSD Stadium Improvement Project Pursuant to Sections 15086 and 15087, Title 14, California Code of Regulations, this Notice is given to advise interested parties that the San Mateo Union High School District (SMUHSD) has completed a Draft Environmental Impact Report (Draft EIR) for the proposed project described below and that the Draft EIR is available for public review. The project description, location, and the potential environmental effects are discussed below. Project Title: SMUHSD Stadium Improvement Project Project Applicant: San Mateo Union High School District Project Description: San Mateo Union High School District is the only school district in the Athletic League that does not have or plan to have permanent stadium lights (with the exception of the lights at Burlingame High School). The proposed project would address this deficiency with installation of new stadium lighting and public address (PA) systems at five district high schools: Aragon High School, Capuchino High School, Hillsdale High School. Mills High School, and San Mateo High School. This would replace the current system of portable lights, which are diesel powered and generate noise, diesel emissions and light pollution. Current stadium lighting technology allows stadium lights to provide focused light with minimal glare. The lighting installation at each stadium would generally consist of two sets of poles. The first set of poles would support lighting fixtures for illuminating the field during sports competitions, practices, and other events. These poles would be approximately 80 feet tall and would be installed at eight locations within each stadium, typically arranged as four poles spaced evenly along each long side of the athletic field.
