Section 1684 - Categorical Exemptions
Section 21084 of the Public Resources Code requires these Guidelines to include a list of classes of projects which have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and which shall, therefore, be exempt from the provisions of the Environmental Quality Act of 1970.
In response to that mandate, the Secretary for Resources has found that the following classes of projects listed in this article do not have a significant effect on the environment and they are declared to be categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents. Only those classes of projects that would pertain to the responsibilities of the Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources are listed in these regulations.
