Document Description
DWR proposes to implement improvements to approximately 560 linear feet of the South Bay Aqueduct located within an existing landside area (Mile Post 38.7 - 39.5) within the SBA easement. The landslide is affecting pipeline stability. DWR proposes to abandon approximately 560 feet of existing pipeline, install new parallel pipeline, and install piles adjacent to and upslope of Piedmont Road to stabilize the landslide. The existing pipeline is located within the center median of Piedmont Boulevard within the City of Milpita. Implementation will require the removal of ornamental landscaping trees.

Exempt Status
Categorical Exemption
Type, Section or Code

Reasons for Exemption
As provided in Section 15301, project implementation consists of the repair or minor alteration of an existing public facility that involves negligible or no expansion of use beyond the time of the lead agencies determination. Project implementation would not affect sensitive resources. Proposed activities consist of excavation and repair of existing South Bay Aqueduct facilities to address landsliding issues; the facility has not been substantially damaged, but corrective action is necessary. Improvements would not alter or increase the conveyance capacity of the pipeline.
