J Street Drain Project
Document Type
NOP - Notice of Preparation of a Draft EIR
Received
Present Land Use
Existing drain is maintained by Ventura County, but the local drains that feed into this drain are maintained by the respective cities (Oxnard and Port Hueneme).
Document Description
The proposed project would involve increasing the capacity of the existing channel to reduce flooding in residential and commercial areas of Oxnard and Port Hueneme, and improve stormwater flow through the J Street Drain. The existing concrete-lined channel has a depth of about 4 feet with a bottom width varying from 20 to 30 feet with 1:1 side slopes. There are various options that are being considered for the increased capacity channel and outlet. The project alternatives are identified as channel options and outlet options and these options can be combined as desired for the preferred alternative. Currently these are still being evaluated and there is no specific preferred alternative. Operation and maintenance of the proposed channel would be conducted in accordance with the Ventura County Watershed Protection District's routine operation and maintenance protocols.
