Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has executed Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement (EPIMS-LAN-39620-R5), pursuant to Fish and Game Code section 1602, to the project Applicant, Las Virgenes Municipal Water District.
This Project consists of the replacement of the existing triple barrel siphon beneath Medea Creek (at the confluence of Malibou Lake) with a new double barrel siphon. The new siphon location will be just north of the existing siphon. This amendment allows the stream to be dewatered using cofferdams of either a Portadam or sheet piling style. Approximately 0.07 acres of native vegetation would be removed, including 0.06 of arroyo willow thickets and 0.01 acres of cattail marshes. The remaining vegetative impacts are 0.02 acres of shoreline areas supporting non-native grasses and herbs.The impacted areas at the Project site will be revegetated upon completion of construction activities. Project related activities shall result in no permanent impacts to the streams on site.
