VIII DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION 10 hoi T Gth c,$ic yaccs I 4o i's 2 IV DETERMINATION (To Be Completed by the Land Use Planning Office) On the basis of this initial evaluation:. . . I find the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that although the proposed project could have a. significant • effect on the environment, there will not be. , significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project.. A Conditional Negative • : Declaration will be proposed. •. • • • •• I find the. proposed 'project MAY have a significant effect on. the .,environment, arid an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required. • •.
