DETERMINATION (To be completed by the Lead Agency) On thsis of this initial evaluation; I find the proposed project COULD NOT have a sig.,, ficant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION i,.s rEcommended. [] I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project. A N80ATIVE DECLARATION IS RECOMMENDED Q I find the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
