REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONBACKGROUND: The negative declaration of environmental significance for Highway 4 Widening/Big Break Road to Oakley Road Project No. 4660-6X4014-89 identified a potential noise impact as a result of.the project and recommended a noise study be done to identify impacts and suggest mitigation measures. A noise study is also required for Highway 4 Widening-State Route 160 to Big Break Road, Project No. 4660-6X4029-89. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVEACTION The environmental documentation would be incomplete without the noise study; therefore, the California Environmental Quality Act (C:E.Q.A.) would not be satisfied. i
