Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Categorical Exemption (15301)
Reasons for Exemption
Reasons why project is exempt:
The proposed use has been determined to be Categorically Exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301, 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 existing or former use. 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), and other alterations such as the addition of bicycle facilities, including but not limited to bicycle parking, bicycle-share facilities and bicycle lanes, transit improvements such as bus lanes, pedestrian crossings, street trees, and other similar alterations that do not create additional automobile lanes. The project's scope is minor in nature therefore eligible for a Class 1 Categorical Exemption, as it meets the criteria of negligible expansion of use and maintenance of existing structures without significant environmental impacts. The project is exempt per Section 15301.
Exempt Status
Other
Type, Section or Code
Other: 15061(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
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 heavily disturbed and is not environmentally sensitive.
