Document Description
The Operator/Applicant proposes to alter the streambed of the Otay River for the purposes of installing rip-rap of AJAX (pre-formed interlocking concrete control structures) to protect an existing 4-inch natural gas-pipeline housed within a 8-inch casing from past erosion and probable eventual wash-out. The existing pipeline is located near the westerly edge of a concrete pad associated with the Hollister Street b0x-culverts. The Operator proposes to excavate a 15 foot by 15 foot area to depth of 3 feet for the purpose of installing the above mentioned erosion control materials. Rip-rap or Ajax will be off-loaded into the streambed by a bucket truck that will be stationed on Hollister Street. After the rip-rap of AJAX is installed, the work area shall be returned to, as near as possible, its original contours and elevations, by backfilling the area with the excavated soils.
