Document Description
A Use Permit application to establish a distilled spirits operation at an existing winery facility that will include processing, blending of high-proof distilled spirits, packaging and shipping of final products and a laboratory for research and development of new beer, wine and spirits products. The project includes the construction of two 20,000-gallon high-proof spirits receiving tanks; four 6,250-gallon bottling tanks; one 12,000-gallon bottling tank; a new 1,200-square-foot blending building that will house one 20,000-gallon sugar tank and three 1,200-gallon juice tanks and miscellaneous blending equipment; and a new 6,000-square-foot laboratory building. The project also will include blending and bottling non-alcoholic beverages which will take place in the existing winery production area. There will not be an increase in employees, and hours of operation will remain unchanged. The site will utilize a private well and septic system, and onsite stormwater drainage.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15303, Class 3, and Section 15311, Class 11
Reasons for Exemption
Class 3 Categorical Exemptions includes a list of classes of projects that have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and that are, therefore, exempt from the provisions of CEQA. Section 15303 lists Class 3 projects, which include “construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures: installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structure." The proposed blending building and laboratory are small structures with no expected significant effect on the environment and, therefore, the project is not subject to CEQA. Class 11 consists of construction, or placement of minor structures accessory to (appurtenant to) existing commercial, industrial, or institutional facilities.
