Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15302 (c): Replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities
Reasons for Exemption
The California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), and its implementing regulations (“CEQA Guidelines”) adopted by the Secretary of the California Natural Resources Agency, list classes of projects that have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and as a result are exempt from further environmental review under CEQA. City staff completed a review of the three projects and potential environmental impacts associated with the projects pursuant to CEQA and concluded that the projects qualified for an exemption pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15302(c) (Replacement or Reconstruction).
The CEQA Guidelines include a list of classes of projects which have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and which shall, therefore, be exempt from the provisions of CEQA. CEQA Guidelines Section 15302 is a Class 2 exemption for existing facilities and includes (c) replacement or reconstruction of existing utility systems and/or facilities involving negligible or no expansion of capacity. The three utility projects involve negligible or no expansion of capacity.
