The Proposed Project would remove and replace the existing Kern River Hatchery siphon and pipeline, operated by CDFW, which is failing and unable to supply water necessary for hatchery operations. The project includes demolishing the existing aboveground siphon pipeline (0.5 mile) and inlet/outlet areas, constructing a new underground siphon pipeline and inlet/outlet in the same alignment and locations, and replacing an existing open ditch with a buried pipeline connecting the outlet to the hatchery.
