Subject:Buchanan Field Airport East Ramp Taxi Lane Reconstruction Project
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
taxi lanes as required by the Federal Aviation Administration for safety and operational purposes. The project is
consistent with the Buchanan Field Airport Master Plan.
The Department of Conservation and Development previously determined that this project is a Categorical
Exemption, under Section 153012 (Replacement/Reconstruction) of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) Guidelines. The Notice of Exemption (County file CP #14-22) was administratively approved on June 11,
2014. Even though a Categorical Exemption has already been determined, our department still requires that Board of
Supervisors to authorize the Public Works Direction, or designee, to advertise the project for bids.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Delay in approving the project advertisement will result in a delay of the construction which, depending on the
weather, may jeopardize undertaking the project this year.
