Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
CEQA Guidelines Section 15302 (Class 2)
Reasons for Exemption
The proposed project is determined to be Categorically Exempt pursuant to
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction) and Section 3.b.2. of the District's Guidelines for Compliance with CEQA because the project consists of the placement of a 820-ton travel lift with a maximum vessel carrying capacity of 660 tons and removal of the existing 660-ton travel lift. The 820-ton travel lift would be programmed to adhere to the existing 660 ton carrying capacity, therefore, will not result in expansion of use beyond existing condition. Further, the 820-ton travel lift would not result in adverse visual impact to the surrounding areas as it is not a solid structure or a stationary object that would permanently obstruct views. Moreover, the view of the travel lift will be obscured by the existing buildings and vessels onsite. The District has also determined none of the six exceptions to the use of a categorial exemption apply to this project (CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2)
