Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has executed Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement number 1600-2019-0432-R3, pursuant to section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to the project Applicant, Department of Water Resources. The project consists of the following activities: overwater and land-based soil investigations, including soil borings, cone penetration tests (CPTs), and geophysical surveys. Soil investigations will gather data on the physical properties of the soils and other typical geologic and geotechnical parameters that will be used to inform and evaluate future alternatives for a proposed single-tunnel Delta water conveyance. On-land soil investigations will consist of 270 soil borings and CPTs, and up to five geophysical survey investigations in upland habitats outside of any riverbed, channel, or bank.a
