Reasons for Exemption

The updates to reflect current federal regulations do not have a significant effect on the environment b/c federal efficiency regulations are already in effect regardless of CA's regulations. For all the other updates, there is no possibility that the changes may have a significant effect on the environment b/c they do not change the underlying efficiency standards and therefore have no energy or water savings.
