Environmental Regulatory Compliance Consulting

The contract involves providing expert consulting services to support the amendment of Water Right License 4873 under the California Environmental Quality Act’s categorical exemption framework. The work requires comprehensive documentation, environmental impact analysis, and active coordination with regulatory agencies to ensure compliance with state environmental standards and streamline the amendment process. The consultant will be responsible for preparing all necessary technical submissions, assessing potential environmental effects, and facilitating communication between stakeholders and the State Water Resources Control Board to resolve any regulatory issues efficiently. This subcontract is issued under NAICS code 541620 for environmental consulting services and is managed by the California State Water Resources Control Board’s Division of Water Rights. The project is tied to a specific regulatory file and will require close adherence to CEQA guidelines to qualify for a categorical exemption, avoiding the need for a full environmental impact report. All activities must be conducted with a focus on accuracy, timeliness, and regulatory alignment to support the lawful modification of the water right without triggering expanded environmental review requirements.
