Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15301
Reasons for Exemption
This project will involve the installation of three electric vehicle chargers in a transportation yard at a transportation facility in Bakersfield. The chargers will be used to charge new electric school buses that will replace existing diesel buses. This installation will be a minor alteration to an existing facility with no expansion beyond the existing use of the facility and will not have a significant effect on the environment. This project therefore falls under categorical exemption listed in CEQA Guidelines Section 15301. Further, none of the exceptions listed in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply to this project.
