Seacoast Farms, LLC proposes to modify the existing channel of Ferro Ditch to conduct remediation and re-vegetation activities. debris, including concrete rubble, has been deposited within and around the channel. The debris removal and grading will impact a 1.48 acre area of the stream. The Applicant proposes to remove and replace the inert debris engineered fill that will stabilize the channel through the project area. The mitigation plan consists of extending the existing 54 inch diameter corrugated metal pipe (CMP) that exists below the crossing at the northern end of the project area. Beyond the outlet of the new CMP, the remainder of the mitigation area will be restored to an open channel at about 1.5 to 2.0 grade to match existing channel at the southern end of the project area.
The project area is located approximately 0.60 miles north to northeast of the Los Angeles Avenue and Santa Clara Avenue intersection (southeast of Saticoy and northwest of Somis), near Saticoy.
