Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15301, 15302, 15303, 15304
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed action to replace a playground at Cactus County Park is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15301, 15302, 15303 and 15304 of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) is appropriate because the Project consists of replacing a playground within existing park facilities involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction) is appropriate because the Project consists of replacing a recently removed playground and would have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure being replaced. In addition, the new playground will be located on the same site as the current or former playground. Section 15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) is appropriate because this section allows for construction of accessory structures. Section 15304 (Minor Alterations to Land) is appropriate because minor ground disturbance would be required to install the new playground structure which would not involve the removal of healthy, mature, scenic trees.
Additionally, the project will not impact environmental resources of hazardous or critical concern that are designated, precisely mapped and officially adopted by government agencies; does not contribute to cumulative environmental impact; will not have a significant impact on the environment due to unusual circumstances; does not damage scenic resources within a designated state scenic highway; is not on the list of Hazardous Waste and Substance Sites pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code; and does not cause adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.
