Opinion
MORRIS, J.
Santiago County Water District (Water District) is challenging the sufficiency of an environmental impact report (EIR) that was approved by the Orange County Board of Supervisors. The purpose of the EIR was to examine the consequences of permitting the real parties in interest (Mining Company) to operate a sand and gravel mining operation within the Water District’s jurisdiction. The Water District filed suit to compel the county to set aside its approval of the EIR. When the trial court denied the petition for a writ of mandate, the Water District appealed. We reverse.
