Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has executed Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement number 1600-VEN-15801-R5, pursuant to section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to the project Applicant, City of Ventura Public Works Department, as represented by Jay Spurgin. The whole of the Project consists of three geotechnical borings within the Santa Clara River in support of future activities related to a State Water Interconnection Project (SWIP). The geotechnical borings will be performed along the proposed alignment for the SWIP to prepare a geotechnical report related to subsurface conditions along a future pipeline alignment within the Santa Clara River. Several drilling methods may be utilized, including mud rotary, air rotary, sonic drilling, and rock coring. It is estimated that geotechnical borings will take approximately 15 working days to complete, during a time when the river channel is free of surface water and accessible by the proposed equipment. Access to the proposed geotechnical boring locations will require equipment movement within the Santa Clara River through a previously disturbed informal access path located on the western side of the Santa Clara River.
