Document Description
PG&E has requested permission to encroach in the Department of Water Resources right-of-way to replace two existing, damaged gas line signs that are located within a 25-foot area. One sign is 25 feet east from the second sign. The two existing signs will be removed and an approximately four-inch diameter by 18-inch deep hole will be dug at each location. One new triangular four-foot long by three-inch wide by 18-inch deep sign will be installed in each hole. Once the signs are installed, PG&E will backfill and compact the excavated area and will return the area to the original grade. DWR will issue an encroachment permit for this work. PG&E will benefit from this work.
