Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
§15061(b)(3), §15301(c), and §15304(a)
Reasons for Exemption
The project qualifies for exemption under Article 5 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines §15061(b)(3) (the "common sense" exemption) due to its assurance of no significant environmental impact. With no immediate construction
proposed, the project involves delineating property boundaries without disrupting ecologically sensitive areas. It aligns with County Code requirements, necessitating minimal improvements to satisfy existing conditions, without altering the existing road
network or increasing capacity. These improvements fall under §15301(c) and §15304(a) of Categorical Exemptions, involving minor alterations to existing facilities and land, respectively, without impacting mature trees, fault zones, or protected wetlands.
