Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has executed
Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS Notification Number LAK-41129-R2, pursuant to
Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to the project Applicant, City of Lakeport, as
represented by Ron Ladd.
The project consists of a culvert replacement, installing a new headwall upstream of the
culvert, modifying the drop inlet that ties into the existing downstream pipe, roadway edge
repair, fence replacement, installation of rock slope protection (RSP), erosion control, and
revegetation. The project will consist of replacing the existing culvert with a new approximately
60-foot long, 54-inch diameter High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe. The HDPE pipe will tie
into a new approximately 30-foot pre-cast concrete headwall on the east side of Hartley
Street. An estimated 260 cubic yards of material will be excavated to install the new structure,
with an estimated 310 cubic yards of material backfilled. The drop inlet that ties into the
existing downstream pipe will be modified by cutting a hole in the existing inlet structure that
the new HDPE pipe will connect with. Additionally, a new 10-foot long, 12-inch diameter
HDPE pipe will be installed to the inlet structure to collect flow from the adjacent field.
Rock slope protection (RSP) will be installed at the bottom of Hartley Drainage at the base of
the new headwall in a 17-foot long by 5-feet wide section. See engineering plans for more
information. Prior to construction, a temporary water diversion will be installed upstream and
downstream of the existing temporary culvert.
