The intent of conducting a site assessment is to assess site conditions before design. A site assessment evaluates environmental features that the design of a sustainable site and building should take into consideration. The Site Assessment evaluates conditions and options related to the following topics: topography (contours, slope stability, etc.), hydrology (flood hazards, opportunities for rainwater collection and reuse, etc.), climate ( monthly precipitation and temperature ranges, solar exposure, etc.), vegetation (threatened or endangered species, primary vegetation types, etc.), soils (healthy soils, previous development, disturbed soils, etc.), human use (views, adjacent transportation infrastructure, etc.), and human health effects (proximity to major sources of air pollution, physical activity opportunities, etc.)
