Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Statutory Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15061(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
The activity is covered by the common sense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. No environmental impact is expected because the proposed regulation only involves more stringent monitoring that will typically coincide with other sampling activities and use existing analytical methods and/or existing operational practices.
