This site provides access to public documents and information relevant to the CEQA review.

 MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION Because approval of this action is discretionary on the part of the CPUC, California law requires this CEQA review. On October 22, 1997 the Commission adopted (Commission Decision 97-10-059) a Mitigated Negative Declaration (dated October 21, 1997) as revised by the CPUC Energy Division in response to comments received and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. This decision, the Mitigated Negative Declaration and related documents are viewable on-line or can be downloaded from this site. A summary letter of this action may be viewed here.
