Once the standing water and associated vegetation is removed, the undermined portion of the drop structure will be exposed through excavation, broken-up in place, and repaired using grouted riprap. The drop structure will be repaired to original design specifications.

Reasons for Exemption
Pursuant to severe rainstorms that swept through Southern California beginning on December 28, 2004 resulting in flash floods, mudslides, the accumulation of debris, washed out and damaged roads, and the loss of human life, the Governor declared a State of Emergency for the counties of Kern, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and Santa Barbara on January 15, 2005, Executive Order No. S-1-05. The drop structure was undermined and damaged as a result of the heavy winter storms in 2004-2005. The proposed project is a post-storm restoration repair project.
