Document Title: Lastreto Water Diversion and Stream Restoration Project (Lake or Streambed Alteration Agreement No. 1600-2018-0394-R1)
Document Type: NOD - Notice of Determination
Received: 4/15/2019

Document Description: The project is limited to 4 encroachments. Two encroachments are for water diversion from unnamed tributaries to Blue Rock Creek. Work for the water diversion will include use and maintenance of the water diversion infrastructure, and the eventual removal of one point of diversion with accompanying stream restoration. One encroachment is for the removal of an unpermitted on-stream reservoir and stream restoration. Work for this encroachment will involve the draining of the reservoir under the guidance of CDFW, the deconstruction of the dam wall, removal of a drain culvert, and full restoration of the reservoir site and stream. The Permittee may choose to amend the Agreement at a later date to re-evaluate the reservoir. During the evaluation period, if the Permittee chooses to conduct studies, the Permittee shall coordinate with CDFW on the scope of such work. Meanwhile, invasive aquatic species control in the reservoir shall take place as part of this Agreement. *SEE NOD FOR FULL DETAILS
