Reasons for Exemption
This project seeks to remove an undersized culvert that is misaligned and obstructing flow from an existing ephemeral stream crossing. This project is necessary to restore natural flow and hydrologically disconnect the road from the stream channel. The road will be decommissioned permanently upon project completion. No healthy, mature, or scenic trees will be removed as a result of this project. As carried out in accordance with the agreement, it will not have a significant effect on the environment.
