Reasons for Exemption
This agreement will fund information collection, research, analysis and evaluation activities related to existing processes, planning, and funding opportunities for possible use by advanced energy development efforts, and which do not result in a serious or major disturbance of an environmental resource. Specifically, this project will be performing feasibility and planning studies, through energy-meter data analysis and community engagement activities that create a community-level design for possible future projects which the energy Commission has not yet approved or funded. No physical changes to the environment will be made. Therefore, the project falls within section n15306 and will not have a significant effect on the environment.
