Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Game is executing a Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to the Project applicant. Phase 4 of the Westside Parkway corridor, being constructed by Caltrans, includes 2 cast-in-place pre-stressed box girder bridges spanning the Kern River. The Northern Bridge will be ~775 ft long by 39 ft wide and will require 5 columns (3 within the streambed and 2 within the floodplain). The Southern Bridge will be ~688 ft long by 53 ft wide and will require 15 piles (12 within the streambed and 3 within the floodplain). Installation of the new structures will permanently impact 1.927 acres of land and temporarily impact 6.821 acres of land. The proposed mitigation included with the notification further defines the impacts by habitat type and proposes mitigation at the Kern Water Bank. The Project would remove 1 willow (Salix sp.) and 3 cottonwoods (Populus freemontii) over 4 inches in diameter. These trees would be planted on-site at a ratio of at least 3:1. Temporary access roads will require 10.533 cy of compacted native soil. This material will be removed when construction is completed and the area will be returned to preconstruction conditions. The utilities will be constructed by San Joaquin Facilities Management, Inc., by method of open trenching. Utility installation (and area of temporary disturbance) will be within the previously accounted for Project footprint within the Kern River.
