Draft Program Environmental Impact Report & Public Meetings
|
The Town of Paradise (Town) announces the availability of a Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (Draft PEIR) for the Paradise Sewer Project (Proposed Project) prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Draft PEIR describes the Proposed Project and evaluates the potential environmental impacts associated with its implementation. The Draft PEIR analyzes three alternatives.
This notice, consistent with CEQA guidelines, starts a 45-calendar day review period of the Draft PEIR. Any responsible and trustee agencies, involved federal agencies, interest groups, and members of the public are invited to provide input on the Draft PEIR. All input received will be documented and addressed in the Final PEIR, anticipated to be completed this fall. |
