Comment:
General comments on the proposed residential and commercial standards are as follows: • If categorically exempt project, then exempt from further analysis. Comment: The CEQA guidelines Section 15322(d) currently exempt infill projects of 5 acres or less. If this were to be applied to residential or commercial projects, we believe a project may have substantial emissions. We need greater understanding of how “Infill” would be interpreted for the purposes of this exemption. • If not categorically exempt, then the analysis must show that a project: o Complies with an approved plan for GHG emissions, like the CAT is doing and we have an certified EIR; or o Meets the CARB standard for construction; and o For operations: o Meets an CEC Tier II energy use performance standard; and Comment: Why are these standards not also applied to industrial projects? o Meets CARB performance standard for water, waste and transportation; and Comment: Why are these standards not also applied to industrial projects?
