The PCL Foundation has included the CEQA Statutes, Guidelines and case law on its website to provide resources for the public with the environmental review process. This information can be found in its original form at the CERES website: www.ceres.ca.gov.

PUBLIC RESOURCES CODE
SECTION 21156

-Section 21156

21156. It is the intent of the Legislature in enacting this chapter
that a master environmental impact report shall evaluate the
cumulative impacts, growth inducing impacts, and irreversible
significant effects on the environment of subsequent projects to the
greatest extent feasible. The Legislature further intends that the
environmental review of subsequent projects be substantially reduced
to the extent that the project impacts have been reviewed and
appropriate mitigation measures are set forth in a certified master
environmental impact report.
