Reasons for Exemption
This project is exempt under Section 15332/Class 32 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines as follows:
Under Section 15332/Class 32, the proposed project is exempt from CEQA requirements when the project is characterized as in-fill development meeting the following conditions:
a) The project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and regulations.
The proposed project is consistent with the Fresno General Plan, McLane Community Plan, the Employment - Light Industrial zone district, and applicable standards from Wireless Telecommunications Facilities Policies and Procedures Issue No. 33 and Interim Wireless Telecommunications Facilities Policy C-010.
b) The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses.
The project is located within city limits and the project site is ± 1,684 square feet on a ± 1.44-acre parcel. The parcel is surrounded by other urban (business park and industrial) uses.
c) The project has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species.
The surrounding area is developed, and the project site has no value as a habitat for endangered, rare, or threatened species.
d) Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality.
The facility will not create significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water as this self-operating facility will generate negligible vehicle traffic and operate in compliance with the noise level requirements specified under Section 15-2506 of the FMC. Furthermore, the proposed generator will operate in compliance with SJVAPCD emission requirements and be designed to prevent fuel leakage onto the ground which could contaminate ground water.
e) The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services.
The proposed project was reviewed by city departments for compliance with applicable requirements. No concerns were identified by the departments.
Therefore, the project is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15332/Class 32.
None of the exceptions to Categorical Exemptions set forth in the CEQA Guidelines, Section 15300.2 apply to the project. Furthermore, the proposed project is not expected to have a significant effect on the environment. A categorical exemption, as noted above, has been prepared for the project and the area is not environmentally sensitive.
