Title

Highway 127 Baker to NTC

Description

This proposed project involves a fiber-optic cable (FOC) installation project from the unincorporated community of Baker to the United States Army National Training Center at Fort Irwin in CA. The Project would add the needed bandwidth and reliability to the system at reduced operational cost and reduced involvement of natural resources. It also includes the operation and maintenance (O&M) of this cable. The project will result in impacts to 0.43 acres of desert tortoise (Gopherus agassizii) habitat including permanent impacts to 0.43 acres. The project is expected to result in incidental take of desert tortoise, which is/are designated as a threatened species under the CESA. The ITP referenced above as issued by CDFW authorizes incidental take of species listed under CESA that may occur as a result of Project implementation.
