A Type I review is an administrative review and decision by the appropriate department with no public notice requirements. These are applications which are categorically exempt from review under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) or permits for which environmental review has been completed in connection with another application. Appeals of Type I decisions are made to the hearing examiner, except shoreline exemption appeals are made to the state Shoreline Hearings Board. Type I reviews are exempt from the procedures of GFMC 19.04A.230, Time frames for review. The purpose of this article is to provide the necessary steps for permit approvals requiring Type I review.
