TITLE_Agent__ DATE ,2005 617.20 Appendix A State Environmental Quality Review FULL ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FORM Putpese: The full EAF is designed to help applicants and agencies determine, in an ordedy manner, whether a project or action may be significant. The question of whether an action may be significant is not always easy to answer. Frequently, there are aspects of a proJect that are subjective or unmeasurable. It is also understood that those who determine significance may have little er no formal knowledge of' the environment or may not be technically export in environmental analysis. In addition, many who have knowledge in one particular area may not be aware of the broader concerns affecting the question of significance. The full EAF is intended to provide a method whereby applicants and agencies can be assured that the determinatkm process has been orderly, comprehensive in nature, yet flexible enough to allow introduction of information to fit a project or action. Full EAF Components: ~he full EAF is comprised of three parts: Part 1: Provides objective data and information about a given project and its site. By identifying basic project data, it assists a reviewer in the analysis that takes place in Parts 2 and 3. Part 2: Focuses on identifying the range of possible impacts that may occur from a proJect or action. It provides guidance as to whether an impact is likely to be considered small to moderate or whether it Is a potentially-large Impact. The form also identifies whether an impact can he mitigated er reduced. Part 3: If any impact in Part 2 is identif'mcl as potentially-large, then Part 3 Is used to evaluate whether or not the impact is actualty important. THIS AREA FOR E D~ USE ONLY DETERMINATION OF SIGNIFICANCE -- Type 1 and Unlisted Actions Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF (Parts 1 and 2 and 3 if appropriate), and any other supporting information, and considering beth the magnitude and importance of each impact, it is reasonably determined by the lead agency that: The project will not result in any large and important impact(s) and, therefore, is one which will not have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a negative declaration will be pre~. NB. Although the project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect for this Unlisted Action because the mitigation measures described in PART 3 have been required, therefore a CONDITIONED negative declaration will be prepared.* NC. The project may result in one or more large and important impacts that may have a significant impact on the environment, therefore a positive declaration will be prepared. *A Conditioned Negative Declaration is only valid for Unlisted Actions LINDA BORDEN - NEW FIXED PIER & FLOAT Name of Action Name of Lead Agency Print or Type Name of Responsible Officer in Lead Agency Title of Responsible Officer Signature of Responsible Officer in Lead Agency Signature of Preparer (If different from responsible officer) webslte Date Page 1 of 21 LOCATION ~::'LAN VI/~W NOTES: 1.
