Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has executed Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS Notification No. EPIMS-SBA-57010-R5, pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to Southern California Edison (Permittee), as represented by Victoria Parsons.
The project consists of the replacement of Pole 4128053E’s anchor and the remediation of project areas. Site access will require hand crews traversing through approximately 20 linear feet of Tajiguas Creek’s riparian vegetation to create the work area. The area around Pole 412805E’s anchor requires trampling of channel vegetation and the trimming of one sycamore tree to create a 10-foot diameter work area to facilitate the anchor’s removal and replacement. Project activities will result in less than 0.007-acre of temporary impact along 20 linear feet of Tajiguas Creek. The project also includes the remediation of all project areas once all project activities associated with the anchor replacement are completed.
