Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has executed Streambed Alteration Agreement Number 1600-2015-0148-R5, pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to Mr. Barton Myers.
The project consisted of grading activities and vegetation trimming and removal activities to construct a maintenance road; placement of several medium to large size boulders within the channel of the streambed to construct an at-grade channel crossing, and; placement of medium to large size boulders partially along the perimeter of the newly constructed agricultural road. The purpose of this project was to construct an agricultural road including an at-grade stream crossing for: 1) well water exploration and maintenance, 2) forestry maintenance, 3) better access to riparian water rights, and 4) fire egress. The Permittee, prior to execution of a Streambed Alteration Agreement had completed the project. After meeting with CDFW staff, the Permittee was required to remove all construction that had occurred within the channel of the streambed and either mitigate for permanent impacts that had occurred from the construction of the maintenance road, or remove the road and restore it back to natural conditions. A notification was subsequently submitted for the project.
