Description

MP200 SUITE B114 NUCLEAR MEDICINE EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION PROJECT

Public Notice of Pending Delegated Approval

The project involves the renovation of approximately 2,544 gross square feet (GSF) (2,207 assignable square feet [ASF]) on the B-1 level of the Peter V. Morton Medical Building (known as MP200), located on campus at 200 Medical Plaza, to create imaging and support areas to accommodate four new nuclear medicine equipment units. The Nuclear Medicine Department at UCLA Health proposes to reconfigure and renovate Office Rooms B114-38, B114-43, B114-47, B114-51, B114-53, B114-55, B114-59, B114-61, B114-65, B114-69, and B114-71; Conference Room B114-42; Restroom B114-39; Corridors B114-40CO, B114-50CO, and B114-60CO; and a portion of Corridor B114-30CO. The renovated space would provide new patient treatment areas, including imaging, equipment, and control rooms. The scope of work includes interior demolition; the construction of new interior partitions; installation of new doors, flooring, ceilings, and wall finishes; new casework, lighting, and plumbing fixtures; structural strengthening and equipment anchorage; modifications to the fire alarm, fire sprinkler, nurse call, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems to accommodate the new program; installation of lead shielding, signage, and data conduit and cabling for communications and security systems connectivity; and testing and commissioning of all new equipment components. Networking equipment will be installed in Prep Office B114-22. There would be no change in gross floor area or medical uses as a result of this project. Construction of the MP200 Suite B114 project is anticipated to begin in November 2027 and be complete in June 2029.

As a related project, the nuclear medicine physicians and research team currently occupying the offices in the project area would be relocated to the adjacent Suite B121; tenant improvements are proposed to renovate that space for the nuclear medicine team’s use and would be completed prior to construction in Suite B114 so that patient services could continue uninterrupted. The office improvements would include new flooring, fresh paint, and upgrades to power/data systems. The UCLA Health Facilities Department which formerly occupied Suite B121 was previously relocated to Suite 3132A in the Ueberroth Building located at 10945 Le Conte Avenue, where minor tenant improvements were also completed, consisting of the installation of new flooring. Although proceeding separately with independent approvals, these related projects have been evaluated collectively pursuant to CEQA.

In accordance with established University of California (UC) procedures, the Chancellor of the University of California, Los Angeles will consider approval of the MP200 Suite B114 Nuclear Medicine Equipment Installation Project pursuant to a delegation of authority from the UC Regents and UC President. Approval is anticipated no sooner than October 2025. The purpose of this notice is to advise the public of the proposed approval action for the project.
