Document Description
The Bayfront Canal Maintenance Project involves the routine maintenance of the portion of the Bayfront Canal that falls within the jurisdiction and responsibility of the City of Redwood City. The City of Redwood City's Public Works Services Department regularly performs maintenance activities, such as removal of vegetation and debris, to ensure proper flow and channel capacity. The project area stretches 6,400 linear feet with maintenance activities primarily impacting 3,200 linear feet due to the structure of the canal. No heavy equipment will be used at any time and appropriate stormwater management measures will be taken to minimize impacts to the canal and downstream waterbodies. This project falls under the categorical exemption of the CEQA guidelines per Section 15301 Class 1 (c), (d), (h), and (i), "Existing Facilities" due to the routine maintenance activities necessary to prevent the flooding of the Bayfront Canal and maintain its water transport capacity, and structural and functioning integrity. There is no reasonable possibility that the project will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances or cumulative impacts.
