Description: In consultation with the BLM, Imperial County prepared this supplement and applies the new significance threshold under CEQA in response to a recent division by the San Diego County Superior Court, a court in the same appellate district and division as Imperial County. The San Diego County Superior Court concluded in that decision that a lead agency abused its discretion under CEQA by failing to treat as significant the loss of habitat for certain species protected by the state and federal Endangered Species Acts.
