PROPOSED REVISIONS TO THE WATER AVAILABILITY ANALYSIS PROGRAM

CEQA Status: Consideration and possible adoption of Categorical Exemptions Class 7 and Class 8. It has been determined that this type of project does not have a significant effect on the environment and is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act. [See Class 7 (“Actions by Regulatory Agencies for Protection of Natural Resources”) which may be found in the guidelines for the implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act at 14 CCR §15307 and see Class 8 (“Actions by Regulatory Agencies for Protection of the Environment”) which may be found in the guidelines for the implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act at 14 CCR §15308.]

Request: Consideration of Staff's proposal to revise the Water Availability Analysis (WAA) Program, which is used in environmental evaluation documents prepared for new discretionary development proposals that rely on groundwater resources.  The WAA is a technical document prepared by a project applicant or their professional representative that quantifies the estimated amount of available groundwater and relates it to the amount of groundwater required to serve the proposed development.  Proposed changes consist of replacing the past Phase I and Phase II theoretical analysis, with a two-tier approach based on best available technical documentation.

Staff Recommendation: Continue the item to April 1, 2015. 

Staff Contact: Patrick Lowe, Natural Resources Conservation Manager, (707) 259-5937, patrick.lowe@countyofnapa.org

CONTINUED FROM JANUARY 7, 2015 & FEBRUARY 18, 2015 MEETINGS; STAFF REQUESTS A CONTINUANCE TO APRIL 1, 2015.
