Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures)
Reasons for Exemption
Board staff has determined that the project is exempt from CEQA under the Class 1, Existing Facilities and Class 3, New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures categorical exemptions (CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 and 15303), because the activity consists of permitting an exiting private facility involving negligible or no expansion of an existing or former use. The project involves the installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures (solar equipment). Further, none of the exceptions to the exemptions in CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply.
