Environmental Reports in Paces consolidate key environmental, zoning, permitting, and ownership data into a single, lightweight summary of potential fatal flaws. These reports are automatically generated using core state data along with Paces’ zoning and permitting datasets, helping you assess project viability quickly and efficiently.
You can generate an Environmental Report directly from the Site Detail Page by selecting the Generate Report button. A report counter also displays how many reports your organization has remaining.
