Notice of Preparation. Consultant will prepare and send a Notice of Preparation (NOP) for the EIR to responsible agencies, interested parties, and organizations in order to provide sufficient information describing the proposed project and potential environmental effects for a 30-day public review period. Consultant will also coordinate posting of the NOP with the Fresno County Public Library and City of Fresno.
Notice of Preparation. Upon finalization of the project description, DJP&A will prepare the NOP in compliance with the CEQA Guidelines. The NOP will include a project description, project and vicinity maps, and an overview of the anticipated environmental impacts of the proposed project. Under “Project Deliverables”, the RFP references an Initial Study to be submitted with the NOP. Pursuant to Section 15063 of the CEQA Guidelines: Following preliminary review, the Lead Agency shall conduct an Initial Study to determine if the project may have a significant effect on the environment. If the Lead Agency can determine that an EIR will clearly be required for the project, an Initial Study is not required but may still be desirable. Because a determination has already been made that an EIR is required, DJP&A believes the constraints analysis and project data will provide sufficient information to prepare the NOP and that preparation of an Initial Study would be an unnecessary use of project resources and time. Therefore, DJP&A does not propose to prepare an Initial Study as part of the NOP. The NOP will be sent to County staff for review and approval. Once approved, DJP&A will assist the County in determining the agencies and organizations that should be on the distribution list and will submit the NOP to the County for distribution. The submittal will include two electronic copies (in word and PDF) and two hard copies. During the NOP 30-day circulation period, DJP&A will conduct two scoping meetings. One meeting will be for the general public and the second meeting will be for interested regulatory agencies. DJP&A will assist County staff preparation of meeting materials, will present the EIR process, and will take public comment for inclusion in the EIR. If additional scoping meetings are required, they can be added to the scope on a time and materials basis. Preparation of the EIR Individual tasks to be accomplished in this element are described below.
Notice of Preparation. Mintier Harnish will develop a preliminary project description and prepare a draft Notice of Preparation (NOP) pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines. The NOP is geared toward other public agencies, but it also intended to inform the broader public of the pending environmental review. Mintier Harnish will submit a draft NOP to City staff for review. We will make any necessary changes to the NOP and provide an electronic copy to City staff for signatures, publication, and distribution. Mintier Harnish will distribute the NOP to the State Clearinghouse and distribute the NOP to the County Clerk/Registrar Recorder and the City’s list of local interested parties, commencing a 30-day public review period. Mintier Harnish will include all comment letters received during the NOP period in the PEIR appendices and will delineate in a table in the PEIR, along with where their requested topics/issues are addressed in the PEIR.
