b) Determine that pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act Section 15162, no substantial changes are proposed or have occurred, and no new information of substantial importance has come to light regarding environmental effects of the project or of the sufficiency or feasibility of mitigation measures and, therefore, the execution of an Agreement for the continued operation of the Community Hazardous Waste Collection Center is within the scope of the project covered by the Final Environmental Impact Report for the Santa Barbara County Household and Small Business Hazardous Waste Collection Program prepared by the University of California, Santa Barbara, March 1993 (State Clearing House No. 1992041092) and, no new environmental document is required.
