Document Description
The proposed project consists of the installation of multiple types of porous paving materials over 54,000 square feet at the County Operations Center (COC) to assess and demonstrate the potential water quality benefits of installing enhanced source control (porous paving) and to establish the COC as a regional Model Municipal Operations Center. The project has been designed to demonstrate how municipalities can provide leadership in improving water quality by making changes in existing facilities and improving the design and construction of future facilities. The proposed project will include the installation of three porous pavement plots at the County Operations Center to increase infiltration and reduce runoff. The Department Project Manager will work with the selected vendors to install the porous paving in a manner to facilitate monitoring.

Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15301
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed project involves minor alterations of an existing public facility and will not result in an expansion of use beyond that which existed at the time of the lead agency's determination. The installation of porous paving materials will be done within the boundaries of the existing County Operations Center and therefore will not involve the use of undeveloped land or encroach upon land currently used for other purposes. Furthermore, the installation of porous paving materials will not alter the existing use of the County Operations Center. Therefore, the proposed project is exempt from further CEQA analysis.
