BART completed a Program Environmental Impact Report (Program EIR) for the BART to Livermore extension in July 2010, which is a major milestone in extending BART service in the Tri-Valley. BART is now working to prepare for a future Project Environmental Impact Report (EIR), which will provide more engineering detail on the proposed extension and a more detailed assessment of benefits and impacts than in the Program EIR.
