Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has executed Lake or Streambed Alteration
Agreement EPIMS Notification No. EPIMS-MEN-54650-R1C, pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code
to Satya Davidson.
This Agreement relies on the Notification materials and a CDFW site visit on August 1, 2024. The Project is limited
to three (3) encroachments. Two (2) encroachments are to upgrade existing culverts. Work for these
encroachments will include excavation, removal of the existing culverts, replacement with new properly sized
culverts, backfilling and compaction of fill, and rock armoring as necessary to minimize erosion. The third
encroachment is to decommission a stream crossing, implement stream restoration, and revegetation of disturbed
areas. Work for this encroachment will include excavation, removal of the existing culvert and fill material to natural
stream grade and alignment, and stabilization with weed-free seeding and regionally appropriate native plants to
minimize erosion.
