Categorical Exclusions. Actions within a class that individually or cumulatively have been determined under Section 30-20-40 not to significantly affect the quality of the human environment ordinarily are excluded from the preparation of an EA or EIS. To find that a proposed action is categorically excluded, OPDIVs/STAFFDIVs shall determine if:

  1. The proposal fits within a class of actions described in 30-20-40 or a categorical exclusion developed by the OPDIV/STAFFDIV in accordance with 30-20-30; and

  2. No extraordinary circumstances are related to the proposed action that may affect the significance of the environmental effects of the proposal.
