Environmental Consulting & CEQA Exemption Support

The contract involves conducting biological and cultural resource surveys to support a CEQA Notice of Exemption for a parcel map subdivision in Arroyo Grande, California, with a zip code of 93420. The work is focused on identifying and evaluating the presence of special-status species and other environmentally sensitive resources to confirm that the proposed subdivision will not result in significant impacts, thereby justifying the exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act. The surveys must adhere to established protocols to ensure compliance with state environmental regulations and provide sufficient documentation for regulatory review. This subcontract falls under NAICS code 541620, which categorizes it as environmental consulting services, and is issued by San Luis Obispo County through the California state agency structure. The project is posted with a June 2026 date, indicating it is scheduled for future solicitation or performance. The place of performance is clearly defined as the Arroyo Grande area, and all fieldwork and reporting must align with the requirements of CEQA to support a legally defensible exemption determination. No set-aside provisions are specified, and the work is intended to deliver conclusive findings that enable the approval of the parcel map without the need for a formal environmental impact report.
