Oysterponds board finds amphitheater project is SEQRA Type II action
Summary
The board accepted an Enviroscience Consultants report and declared the proposed amphitheater a Type II SEQRA action, saying the project "does not have significant adverse effects" under 6NYCRR 617.5(c)(8).
The board voted to declare itself lead agency for the proposed Amphitheater Project at the Oysterponds school and accepted an environmental report prepared by Enviroscience Consultants, LLC. The resolution states the project "is a Type II action under SEQRA regulations," referencing 6NYCRR 617.5(c)(8), and concludes the work "does not have significant adverse effects on the environment."
The determination was presented as part of the board resolutions and recorded as a formal action. The resolution language appears in the minutes and cites the Environmental Conservation Law report provided by the consultant; the board treated the classification as a basis to proceed without further SEQRA review under the cited Type II category.
The board's SEQRA finding does not itself authorize construction spending or change contract approvals; subsequent capital planning steps and any permitting remain subject to separate approvals and requirements.
