Here you will find links to documents that provide for the environmental review of IRWD projects, as required by state and federal law.

California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Notifications

Enacted in 1970, CEQA is a California statue that requires state and local agencies to identify the significant environmental impacts of their projects and to avoid or mitigate those impacts, if feasible.

National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Notifications

Also enacted in 1970, NEPA establishes federal evironmental policies requiring all federal agencies to assess the environmental impacts of porpose projects prior to making decisions such as issuing permits or spending federal money. The principle goal of NEPA is to ensure that projects are designed, located and operated in ways that reduce adverse effects and increase beneficial impacts. All projects that recieve federal funding are subject to NEPA requirements.
