Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has issued an ITP (No. 2081-2025-026-02), pursuant to Section 2081(b) of the Fish and Game Code to the project Applicant, Yuba Water.
The Project involves passage of sediment, planned mechanical removal of sediment, unplanned urgent maintenance, remedial actions for the blockage of dam outlets, fish release outlet modifications, and diversion tunnel intake modifications. It is expected that on average, there will be a sediment passage event every 10 years, and every 6 years there will be mechanical removal events at each impoundment.
The Project will result in temporary impacts to 13.67 acres of foothill yellow-legged frog (FYLF)(Rana boylii) habitat. The project is expected to result in incidental take of FYLF, which is designated as a threatened species under the California Endangered Species Act (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.
