Title

Ruxton Avenue Channel Conversion Project

Description

The California Department of Fish and Game is executing a Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement number 1600-2007-0488-R5 pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to the project applicant, County of San Diego, Department of Public Works. The applicant proposes to alter the stream to convert approximately 450 feet of concrete channel to an earthen channel, remove the existing 170-foot-long double 58 inch by 36 inch CMPA culvert under Ruxton Avenue and replace it with a 67-foot-long three-box culvert, leaving the remaining 103 feet open, widen the formerly-concrete-lined channel, and revegetate the resulting channel with native species. In addition, two rip-rap energy dissipaters will be added along the Jamacha Boulevard portion of the channel where storm drain lines empty into the channel, and a third rip-rap energy dissipater will be added near the southern terminus of the project where a storm drain empties into the channel.
