Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has executed Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS Notification No. EPIMS-LAN-58630-R5, pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to Southern California Edison (Permittee), as represented by Warnetta Logan.
The project consists of the removal of Tower 7029757, removal of two corresponding anchors, and remediation of project areas. Project activities will result in 0.419-acre of temporary impacts to Gorman Creek. This 0.419-acre area consists of 0.389-acre of ashy ryegrass – creeping wildrye turfs, 0.012-acre of perennial pepperweed – prickly lettuces patches, and 0.018-acre of upland mustards or star thistle fields. Project site access will require traversing approximately 220 feet linear of Gorman Creek’s bed, left bank, and channel, which includes crews accessing the project location via vehicle and on foot. Project activities will require crushing and trampling of herbaceous and subshrub vegetation during access and operations, as well as ground disturbance during the excavation of the tower footings and anchors. The project also includes the remediation of all project areas, including the regrading of channel areas back to their pre-project contours, removal of project-generated waste, and the restoration of channel ecology and morphology upon completion of the project.
