Reasons why the project is exempt: The proposed project consists of the construction of storm drain improvements along existing road rights of way in the City of Chowchilla. The project will include the addition of new sewer line infrastructure to improve the City’s ability to safely and adequately handle stormwater runoff. The project will not expand the roadways or increase vehicular traffic lanes.
