Section 6254 - Public Report

Each public report shall include a description of the proposed action, a statement of any significant adverse environmental effect that can reasonably be expected to occur, directly or indirectly, from implementing the proposal, and a statement of any reasonable mitigation measures that are available to minimize significant adverse environmental impact.

Each public report shall also contain a statement and discussion of reasonable alternatives which would reduce any significant environmental impact. The public report may be included in the notice of proposed decision. The director may develop a schedule of actual cost for the reproduction of public reports to be charged to those requesting copies.

(a) The director shall not approve an activity which would cause a significant adverse environmental impact if there is a feasible alternative or feasible mitigation measure available which would substantially lessen any significant adverse impact which implementation of the proposal may reasonably be expected to have on the environment.

(b) Written Evaluation. The final action taken in regard to a decision subject to this section in which a significant adverse environmental point is raised during the evaluation process shall include a written evaluation of such points approved by the director.
