One exception relates to school projects. CEQA requires agencies to evaluate a project site's <br />environmental conditions to determine f school sites are located in close proximity to freeways or <br />other operations that might emit hazardous air emissions. <br />City of Redwood City 22 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration <br />Sandpiper Elementary School Facilities Expansion November 2016 <br />
