Document Description
The purpose of this activity is to revide guidelines previously adopted by the California Energy Commission to govern the certification of renewable energy resources eligible to satisfy the State's Renewable Portfolio Standard. The revisions clarify the type of information that may be submitted by municipal solid waste conversion facilities to apply for certification under the guidelines. The California Energy Commission, operators and developers of renewable energy resources, including municipal solid waste conversion facilities, and electric utilities that procure electricity from these renewable energy resources benefit from the adoption of these guidelines.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Other
Type, Section or Code
General exemption 15061(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
Activity is not a project under Section 15378(b)(2) and (4) because it deals with general policy and procedure making and governmental funding mechanisms that do not involve any commitment to any project that may cause a significant adverse environmental impact. Activity is also exempt under Section 15061(b)(3) in that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment. The guideline revisions only clarify the information needed to demonstrate compliance with the standards containted in the Renewables Portfolio Standard Eligibility Guidebook and do not change the standards themselves.
