Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Game is executing Lake or Streambed Alteration Agreement number 1600-2009-0040-R2, pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to the project applicant, Hal Holland, Westervelt Ecological Services.
Project proposes to build a 492-acre mitigation bank alongside the Cosumnes River near its confluence with the Mokelumne Rivers. The project proposes to modify farmed land (Wine grapes and row crops) and turn it into a tidally influenced floodplain area. The modified area will then support riparian floodplain habitat including wetlands. Approximately 21,286 linear feet of channels will be constructed to increase inundation of the riparian habitat, a total footprint of 13.4 acres.
