Document Description
A peeler pole fence will be constructed along Orwin Way. The fence will start at the sector office and end at the California Conservation Corps dorm building. The fence will go around the new district office building located between the sector office and the dorm building. The wooden fence will be constructed by State Parks natural resource staff and will be made of wooden peeler core posts measuring approximately 8 feet by 5 inches each. The posts have been pressure treated with an EPAregistered pesticide containing inorganic arsenical to preserve the wood from insects and decay. The fence will require a 3 feet by 8 inches deep hole drilled into the ground with an earth auger for each post of the fence. The fence will require placing approximately 450 standing wooden posts into the ground. This will consist of drilling approximately 450 holes about 7.5 feet apart into the ground using an earth auger. There will be one cross post in between each standing post connected using cold rolled steel pins. The length of the fence will be approximately 3,660 feet long. This fence will be replacing an existing barbed wire “T” post fence. This project is in a homestead area that has already been disturbed by farming and grazing. The natural resource staff will communicate any potential biological disturbances with Environmental Scientists and any necessary action will be taken.
