CEQA Oak Woodland Conservation
CEQA Oak Woodland Conservation
Bill Hocker | Nov 17, 2014 on: Walt Ranch
In going though the CEQA guidelines looking for something else I saw that there is a section specifically devoted to Oak Woodlands. It is ยง21083.4 on page 31 in this version of the guidelines.
Understanding CEQA guidelines is beyond me, but perhaps someone can clarify why these provisions would or would not apply to the Walt project. The fact that Oak woodlands in particular are called out (while, for example, redwood forests are not) make me think that the drafters of the document felt that oak woodlands were of particular concern in the state.
