UC DAVIS: OFFICE OF RESOURCE MANAGEMENT AND PLANNING July 31, 2003 DEANS, DIRECTORS, DEPARTMENT CHAIRS, and CAMPUS ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS RE: Draft Initial Study for the Consumer Education Pavilion UC Davis proposes to construct a new building at the existing UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine Teaching and Research Center (VMTRC). The VMTRC is located north of Avenue 184 and east of Road 112 in Tulare County. The proposed Consumer Education Pavilion (CEP) would be located on approximately two acres of disturbed land at the VMTRC site and would include approximately 4,800 gross square feet of building space, a new parking lot, a stormwater retention basin, and a new septic system. The CEP would include a classroom and display area, an instructor's office, an information technology control room, a storage room, a lobby, and restroom facilities. The CEP would provide dairy educational opportunities within the VMTRC by supporting the educational goals of the following three academic institutions: UC Davis, College of the Sequoias, and Tulare High School. The CEP would include a display and classroom area designed specifically for educational programs as they relate to modern dairy and food safety programs.
