Document Description
RABA proposes to modify the service area in unincorporated areas of Shasta County, and terminate the Intergovernmental Agreement (Agreement) for the Burney Express Service. Modification of the service area would allow transit to operate within the existing right of way on State Route CSR) 44, SR 89, and SR 299. Termination of the Agreement would not eliminate service to Burney, but will reduce redundancy and improve administrative efficiency. RABA would then apply for Section 5311 and 531 l(f)fonding through the Federal Transit Administration.

Notice of Exemption
Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code
14 CCR 1506l[b][3]
Reasons for Exemption
Class 1 exemptions include the operation, repair, maintenance, or minor alteration of
existing facilities, structures, equipment, or topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of use. RABA currently operates in unincorporated areas of Shasta County. This action furthers the goal of enhancing mobility and access, easing traffic congestion, and promoting sustainability. The service area modifications will result in a negligible expansion of use, and the project has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment.
