Addendum to the Environmental Impact Report - submitted July 2007

An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the proposed PAMF-SCC was certified by the City of San Carlos (City) in April 2007. However, since EIR certification, the project sponsor has submitted to the City a revised application for the PAMF-SCC. This Addendum to the EIR has been prepared to address the revisions and to satisfy requirements under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This document will be used by the decision-makers in their consideration of whether to approve the revised proposal for the PAMF-SCC. For the purposes of this Addendum, the proposal that was analyzed in the previously certified EIR is referred to as the Original Project, and the revised proposal that is addressed in this Addendum is referred to as the Updated Project.
