A
notice of
preparation (NOP) is a brief notice sent by the lead agency to notify the responsible
agencies, trustee agencies, and involved federal agencies that the lead agency plans to
prepare an EIR, or EA with significant impacts for the project. The purpose of
the
notice is to solicit guidance from those agencies as to the scope and content of the
environmental information to be included in the EIR or EA with significant impacts.
An Initial Study, or preliminary analysis, is prepared and traditionally accompanies the
NOP. The following NOPs are linked to the appropriate Initial Study.

The NOP is not archived because the purpose of the NOP is to inform
the public of the availability of a CEQA document for public review.
When the review period has ended and the document has been approved or
incorporated into a subsequent document, the notice has served its
notification purpose and is no longer necessary, thus, need not be
archived.
