The adoption of the Upper Santa Clara River IRWM Plan is exempt under the provisions of CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines, since it involves only conceptual plans 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 will be strictly for information gathering purposes, or as part of studies leading to action which a public agency has not yet approved, adopted, or funded. Accordingly, the adopted IRWM Plan qualities for a feasibility and planning studies statutory exemption and a categorical exemption for information gathering purposes.
