ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

This action approves an agreement that provides security to guarantee completion of improvements for a project that is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15303(d) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, which states that a project which consists of construction or installation of new small utility equipment and facilities does not have a significant impact on the environment, and is therefore exempt from CEQA. Additionally, the project is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15304(f) of the CEQA Guidelines, which states that a project which consists of minor alterations in the condition of land, such as minor trenching and backfilling where the surface is restored, does not have a significant impact on the environment, and is therefore exempt from CEQA.
