A. City Staff and Trustee Agencies. Upon the determination that an initial study will be required, the department may consult informally with City departments and trustee agencies having purview in areas affected by the project to obtain their recommendations on the scope of significant environmental impact issues, mitigation measures and whether an EIR, negative declaration, or mitigated negative declaration should be prepared.
B. Interested Parties. The department may also consult with interested parties, neighborhood or environmental groups or others who may have knowledge or special expertise with respect to the project or possible significant effects.
