The field of study constituting environmental planning is relatively new, having come into existence in its modern form in the 1970s. Environmental planning jobs typically revolved around the integration of various elements in creating a "smart use" plan for specific geographic regions that can range from neighborhoods and towns to large cities and the country as a whole. The process of conducting environmental planning initiatives includes combining urban planning goals and initiatives with environmentally-friendly initiatives. As such, environmental planners are often charged with assisting builders and urban planners with sustainable development, ensuring that natural resources such as air, water and soil are not adversely affected by the excavation, public utilities installation and building processes. Assessments completed during typical environmental planning projects include transportation studies, assessments of expected noise and air pollution, effects on coastlines and erosion studies, flood zone awareness, wetlands and endangered species studies, land use and a variety of others. Environmental planners are also typically responsible for ensuring that local, state and federal environmental regulations are adhered to and work with and under the guidelines of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in ensuring compliance. In the modern era, a focus on sustainable energy and renewable technology has come to the forefront of much environmental and urban planning, as have green building initiatives in a variety of areas.
