Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Sec 15301, 15304, 15306, 15322
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed project involves the funding and minor alterations of existing private or public facilities, along with minor modifications in the condition of land, water and/or vegetation, which do not involve removal of healthy, mature, scenic trees. These activities would result in negligible or no expansion of use and no possibility of significantly impacting the physical environment. The proposed project also involves a conceptual plan associated with feasibility and planning studies for possible future actions, as well as basic data collection and resource evaluation activities which do not result in a serious or major disturbance to an environmental resource. These activities may be strictly for information gathering purposes, or as part of a study leading to actions, which a public agency has not yet approved, adopted, or funded. The proposed project also involves the awarding of funds by Metropolitan to public agencies and nonprofit organizations to implement educational water awareness programs, which do not involve physical alteration in the areas affected.
