Code Regs., Title 14, §15330","1. The project is a time critical action designed to prevent, minimize, stabilize, mitigate or eliminate the release or threat of release of hazardous waste or hazardous substances. 2. The project is a response action that will not exceed $1 million in cost. 3. The project does not involve the onsite use of a hazardous waste incinerator or thermal treatment unit or the relocation of residences or businesses and does not involve the potential release into the air of volatile organic compounds as defined in Health and Safety Code Section 25123. No County or Bay Area Air Quality permits are anticipated to be required for this project. 4. The project will be consistent with applicable state and local environmental permitting requirements: a.

City of Berkeley –BTMD and the building department will be notified of the excavation activities, but no building or other permit is required since the digging is on private property and will be backfilled with no permanent construction occurring. d. DTSC – No permit or EPA Hazardous Waste Generator Identification Number is needed because hazardous waste is not anticipated. 5. The exceptions pursuant to Cal. Code Rags., title 14, § 15300.2 have been addressed as follows: a. Cumulative Impact. The project will not result in cumulative impacts because it is designed to be a short term, final remedy that would not lead to a succession of projects of the same type in the same place over time. b. Significant Effect. The environmental safeguards and monitoring procedures that are enforceable and made a condition of project approval will prevent unusual circumstances from occurring so that there is no possibility that the project will have a significant effect on the environment. c.
