The City of Ontario proposes to install approximately 18 miles of recycled water distribution of pipelines and support system facilities within existing disturbed road rights-of-way primarily along Euclid Avenue in Ontario. The proposed reclaimed distribution system will range between 8" to 12" in diameter and will typically be installed between five and seven feet below the existing ground surface. Once installed the booster pump station will deliver recycled water through the recycled water distribution system to existing landscaped areas.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
21084 & 15303(d)
Reasons for Exemption
The State CEQA Guidelines provide a series of categorical exemptions for projects that have been deemed to have minimal impacts on the environment. The proposed installation of the recycled water distribution system and booster pump station and delivery of recycled water to institutional and recreational landscaped areas have been determined to have no potential to cause significant adverse effects on the environment and will ensure that the water resource management by the City can continue to operate in an efficient and safe manner. Categorical Exemption Class 3 exempts "construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures: (d) water main, sewage, electrical, gas, and other utility extensions, including street improvements of reasonable length to serve such construction." The exceptions to the issuance of categorical exemptions have been evaluated for the proposed recycled water distribution system alignment. The proposed recycled water distribution system has been determined not to have a potential to cause significant adverse environmental effects as a result of any of the exceptions. Therefore, this proposed action is not forecast to cause any potential for significant adverse environmental impacts and qualifies with the requirements for a Class 3 Exemption.
