The West Bay Sanitary District (WBSD), is the lead agency responsible for the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for the Flow Equalization and Resource Recovery Facility Levee Improvements and Recycled Water Facility Project (or “proposed project”) described below.

We need to know the view of your agency as to the scope and content of the environmental information the EIR should provide which is germane to your agency’s statutory responsibilities in connection with the proposed project. Your agency may need to use the EIR when considering your permit or other approval for the project. The project description, location, and the potential environmental effects are contained in the attached materials. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 5 15082 (b), you have 30 days from the date of receipt of this NOP to respond. Please send your written response by the earliest possible date, but no later than 5PM on June 22, 2020 to the address listed below.

Pursuant to the public participation goals of CEQA, WBSD, will host a Public Scoping Meeting to gather additional input on the content and focus of the environmental analysis to be conducted and presented  in the EIR. Interested parties, including agencies, are encouraged to attend the meeting to learn more about the proposed project and the environmental  review process, to express any concerns about the proposed project, and offer suggestions regarding the environmental  impacts, including any mitigation measures and alternatives. The date, time of the online scoping meeting are listed below.
