Feather River West Levee Project - Contract C

Document Description: The California Department of Fish and Wildlife is executing Streambed Alteration Agreement Number 1600-2014-0002-R2 pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to the project applicant, Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency. This Agreement covers PG&E utility relocations necessary to accommodate construction in Contract B. Proposed work in Contract B consist of constructing a deep cutoff wall in most of the reaches within the contract, backfilling landside toe depressions, and encroachment management (SAA # 1600-2014-0001-R2). In many reaches, this work will require a full or partial levee degrade in order to construct the cutoff wall; resulting in a conflict with existing utility locations. To accommodate these improvements PG&E must relocate utilities that are either inconsistent with levee management policies or that would otherwise obstruct construction.
