Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
Class 2, Section 15302
Reasons for Exemption
The project proposes the demolition and replacement of existing utility infrastructure (i.e., two existing redwood water storage tanks) to reduce the risk of damage to the tanks from potential wildfire. The new bolted glass-fused-to-steel water tanks will be used for the same purpose, be located in the same footprint, and have the same capacity as the tanks they are replacing. Therefore, the project meets the criteria for the Class 2 exemption.
