Notice of Exemption

Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15301
Reasons for Exemption
Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, Section 15301 Existing Facilities provides an exemption for the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing. This project will conduct research, development, and manufacturing within already existing facilities. While the existing laboratory prototype manufacturing space may be expanded to allow for the scale-up to a low-rate initial production manufacturing line, it will occur within the current industrial warehouse space located adjacent or within close proximity of the original laboratory space for which this project is cited. There will be negligible or no expansion of existing use. Therefore, the project falls within Section 15301 and will not have a significant effect on the environment.
