Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Categorical Exemption (15301) and Other: 15061(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed use has been determined to be Categorically Exempt (“Existing Facilities”) under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301. Class 1 consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency’s determination. Class 1 includes the following example of a project that would be exempt under this section: (c) [minor alterations to] Existing highways and streets, sidewalks, gutters, bicycle and pedestrian trails, and similar facilities (this includes road grading for the purpose of public safety). The project is for the resurfacing of an existing paved road and upgrades to accessible ramps as described above. All improvements are within existing city right-of-way. The proposed improvements are a negligible expansion of the existing use. The improvements described above are considered minor alterations to existing streets or similar facilities. The project is exempt per Section 15301.
The proposed project is also exempt under the general rule 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 (Section 15061(b)(3)). There is no possibility that the activity in question will have a significant effect on the environment because the proposed project is occurring in an area that is already heavily disturbed and is not environmentally sensitive.
