Document Description
The DWR proposes to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for work associated with maintenance activities, minor construction, and emergency procedures for State Water Project facilities located in the San Joaquin Field Division (Kettleman City to Edmonston Pumping Plant). DWR prepared a Habitat Conservation Plan, which specifies modifications to operation and maintenance procedures, and conservation measures, to insure the project activities avoid, minimize, and mitigate impacts to sensitive species.
