Title

SFPUC Alameda Siphons Seismic Reliability Upgrade Project

Description

The project involves construction of a new Alameda Siphon (Alameda Siphon No. 4) and seismically upgrading existing facilities in the vicinity of three existing Alameda Siphons in Alameda County. The project will result in permanent impacts to 1.4 acres and temporary impacts to 22.9 acres of Alameda whipsnake (Masticophis lateralis euryxanthus) habitat. Project-related impacts are expected to result in the take of Alameda whipsnake, a species protected by the California Endangered Species Act (CESA). DFG is issuing the CESA incidental take permit referenced above as a responsible agency under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
