Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has executed Lake or Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS Notification No. EPIMS-MEN-16690-R1C, pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to Elias Tannous. The project is limited to one encroachment. The one proposed encroachment is to remove two existing 42-inch side-by-side stream crossing culverts and to install a single new stream crossing culvert in a nearby downstream location. The new culvert will be an elliptical pipe that is 85 feet long, 46 inches tall, and 60 inches wide. Work for this encroachment will include excavation, removal of the existing culvert, stabilizing the slopes at the old crossing and applying erosion controls, placement of the new properly sized culverts in the new location downstream, backfilling and compaction of fill, and rock armoring as necessary to minimize erosion.
