3. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)

The CEQA requires the Commission act as the designated lead agency to assess the potential environmental impact of a project in order that adverse effects are avoided, alternatives are investigated, and environmental quality is restored or enhanced to the fullest extent possible. Applicant will provide its service through the use of existing facilities and network elements of other carriers and/or through its own facilities, installed within existing buildings and structures, and has no other plans for constructing other facilities at this time. Therefore, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that granting this application will have an adverse impact upon the environment. Applicant must file for additional authority, and submit to any necessary CEQA review, before it can construct other types of facilities.
