Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
§15301, Class 1 Exemption, Existing Facilities; §15302, Class 2 Exemption, Replacement or Reconstruction
Reasons for Exemption
The project consists of minor modification to an existing
pipeline and the reconstruction of the affected area. One
of the two project locations is where a road crosses a
section of the San Jacinto River. This location is currently
paved with concrete; construction would comply with
applicable laws, regulations, and permit conditions; and
the post-construction surface would be similar to the
existing surface, with the exception of an access point
(e.g., vault) that would be flush with the paved concrete
surface. Accordingly, this does not constitute a unique
circumstance that would it result in a significant effect on
the environment. The other two valves would be located
under previously disturbed ground located adjacent to an
existing pump station and within an existing access road.
The project would not increase the capacity of the
existing pipeline.
