Document Description
UC Davis proposes an interior renovation of Temporary Building 24 (TB24), located south of Hutchison Drive and west of California Avenue, in the core of campus. The KDVS radio station will be moving to TB24 from Freeborn Hall, which has been closed due to a seismic evaluation. This project will renovate the north half of TB24 to accommodate the KDVS radio station. The renovated space includes two studios, a live performance space, a listening room, a music library, and a gender inclusive accessible restroom.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Class 1: Existing Facilities
Reasons for Exemption
The renovation of existing space to accommodate an existing use on Campus qualifies as categorically exempt under Exemption Class 1 of the Guidelines for the Implementation to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This exemption applies to the operation, repair, permitting, leasing, maintenance or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities or mechanical equipment, involving negligible or no expansion of an existing use. In addition, TB24 was evaluated for historical significance, and it was found to not meet the eligibility criteria for either NRHP or CRHR. Therefore, none of the exceptions for application of a categorical exemption apply to this project.
