In exchange for the new easement, Central San will quitclaim its original easement. CEQA Staff has concluded that this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines Section 15305, since it involves a minor alteration in land use limitations. Approval of this project will establish the Board's independent finding that this action is exempt from CEQA. ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS The sewer main could stay in the existing easement and not be realigned. This alternative is not recommended because Capital Projects has determined that the sewer main needs to be renovated and this is the most effective design. FINANCIAL IMPACTS None.
