The complete 2018 Expan- sion Project, including the components that are unchanged, is also summarized in that chap- ter. C. CEQA REQUIREMENTS FOR A SUPPLEMENTAL EIR • This Supplemental EIR has been prepared in compliance with CEQA and the CEQA Guide- lines, as amended. A Supplemental EIR, as defined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15163, is • intended to evaluate changes to a project analyzed in a certified EIR, when those project • changes could result in new or more substantial impacts — or require new or altered mitiga- tion measures or project alternatives — beyond those already identified in the certified EIR. • CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, referenced in Section 15163, lists the conditions requiring preparation of a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR: • Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of • the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant • environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified • significant effects; • Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project • is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative dec- laration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substan- tial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or • New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous • EIR was certified as complete or the negative declaration was adopted, shows any of • the following: • (A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the • previous EIR or negative declarations; • (B) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe • than shown in the previous EIR; • (C) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible • would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more signifi- cant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mit- igation measure or alternative;or • (D) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from • those analyzed in the previous FIR would substantially reduce one or more • significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to • • • •
