Document Description
The proposed project includes the extension of a permitted water supply intake diversion into the gravel alluvium of Putah Creek and lowering of the existing submersible pump placement to improve reliability during critically dry hydrologic years. The existing intake elevation is subject to outages when the pool elevation falls below Elevation 405.00 ft. No tree removal or thinning is proposed. The project will utilize State Water Resources Control Board recognized Erosion and Sediment Control BMPs. Additionally, an Emergency Streambed Alteration Notification was approved by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife in 2022.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Section 15301 Class 1 - Existing Facilities
Reasons for Exemption
Pursuant to CEQA Section 15300, the proposed project would be considered Categorically Exempt based on at least one Exemption Class. The project is not anticipated to impact any known environmentally sensitive area, and its impact on the environment is insignificant, individually, and cumulatively. There is no reasonable possibility that the project will have a significant effect on the environment, or damage scenic resources because it consists of replacement, maintenance, and minor expansion of existing infrastructure.
Pursuant to Sections 15022(a)(1)(C) and 15300.4 of the State CEQA Guidelines, the Napa County Board of Supervisors’ have adopted implementation procedures, identifying specific projects that would be categorically exempt from established CEQA Guidelines. The proposed project would therefore be Categorically Exempt from the provisions of CEQA pursuant to Title 14 CCR Section 15301 Class 1 – Existing Facilities. Class 1 consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public; or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency’s determination.
