Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15061(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
Pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines, the proposed plan would have no possibility for causing a significant effect on the environment. The Guidelines state in that section that “A project is exempt from CEQA if 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. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA." In addition, exceptions to the applicability of a CE, as specified in Section 15300.2(a) through (f) of the CEQA Guidelines, do not apply to the proposed plan. As such, the proposed plan meets all criteria for an exemption under CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) and, pursuant to this exemption, “[i]t can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.
