The proposed project would seismically upgrade the Medical and Educational Buildings from Risk Level V to Risk Level III. The Sierra Conservation Camp consists of one building, which is separated into two floors. The upper floors run only half the length of the first floor and is dedicated to the Education Center. The lower floor, in its entirety, is dedicated to the Medical Facility. The proposed retrofit scheme includes addition of new concrete collector-struts on the exterior longitudinal walls of Building F, addition of new shear wall buttress elements on the south elevation of Building E, addition of new shear wall/parapet-extension elements on the east and west elevations of Building E.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15301
Reasons for Exemption
Project involves structural modifications to the interior of the building with some minor electrical, mechanical and plumbing alterations. The additional structural connections between the roof and tilt-up walls will reduce the shock effect from an earthquake event and prevent the total collapse of the building. This project is exempt because it does not expand the current use of the facility.
