Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Game is executing a Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement number 1600-2005-0770-R5 pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code. Caltrans will alter the streambed by constructing High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes on State Highway 5 between State Route 118 and 14. To accommodate the HOV lanes, the highway needs to be widened over Weldon Creek and the creek needs to be realigned to accommodate a series of piers to support the widened structure. A total of 0.290 acre will be impacted by the channel realignment and 0.065 acres of riparian habitat will be permanently impacts, primarily due to loss of sunlight to creek side vegetation. The realigned creek that will be created will be 0.262 acre of rock rip rap creek. The project also includes 0.002 acre of temporary impacts for the relocation of the freeway drain outlet.
