Document Description
These proposed permit implementation regulations amend Title 27, Division 2, Chapter 4, Articles 1, 2, 3, and 3.1, and add to Article 3, subsections 21660.1 through 21660.4; and amend Title 14, Division 7, Chapter 3, Articles 5.9 and 5.95 and Chapter 5, Articles 2.1, 2.2, and 3.0. The proposed regulations are intended to comply with the requirements of Assembly Bill 1497 (Montanez, Statutes 2003, Chapter 823), which requires the CIWMB to define "significant change in the design or operation of the solid waste facility that is not authorized by the existing permit" and to establish public noticing and hearing requirements for permit revisions. The proposed regulations apply the public noticing and hearing regulatory requirements for new construction, demolition, and inert (CDI) permit applications to other solid waste facilities in order to provide consistent noticing and hearing requirements for different types of solid waste facilities. Further, the proposed regulations address various permitting-related issues and provide clarification and consistency to the existing regulations.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15061(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
The adoption of these regulations is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), as it can be seen with certainty that no potential significant effect will result from the adoption of the regulations. The proposed regulations are procedural in nature, not substantive. They do not modify any state minimum standards or authorize any conduct by operators that is not already allowed under current regulations. The regulations will continue to require and allow for site specific CEQA review relative to activities at solid waste facilities.
