Reasons for Exemption
The project is exempt because it involves existing facilities, minor alterations to land, and actions by regulatory agencies for protection of natural resources and the environment. The project consists of an existing off stream reservoir, 155 acres of vineyard, and five diversion facilities. The project involves the development of an off stream reservoir, associated pipelines and 165 acres of vineyard within the 339 acre footprint, and a shift to wintertime storage under Application 31870 in order to offset the peak demands of existing direct diversion operations.
