It reasoned that even though responsible agencies “generally consider only the effects of those parts of the project that they decide to carry out or approve,” responsible agencies are still required to adopt all necessary findings as to significant effects associated with the agency’s permit that are identified in a certified EIR pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21081, include a “brief explanation” of the rationale for that finding. The Third District Court of Appeal held this was in error. The City, as the responsible agency, had reviewed the EIR and in support of its approval of the permit found that there were “no unmitigated adverse environmental impacts relating to the alternative waste discharge disposal methods.” No other findings were adopted. The lead agency for the water bottling plant and its accompanying EIR was the County of Siskiyou.
