Document Description
Permittee proposed to conduct work associated with the maintenance of a road crossing over Sheills Canyon Creek. Work will consist of the removal of excess sediment and vegetation from within the channel to restore conveyance capacity of the culverts associated with the crossing. Once the initial sediment and vegetation activities have occurred, maintenance will continue to keep vegetation under control and, if needed, additional sediment removal efforts will occur. Pipelines for oil and water are present on the upstream side of the culverts and a gas line is present immediately downstream. Restoring channel capacity will reduce the potential for high volume flows to come in contact wit these pipelines.
