6 Culverts via CIPP off I-8

Caltrans District 11 is seeking to repair six culverts on Interstate 8 in San Diego County, specifically between 0.1 miles east of the Fairmount Avenue undercrossing and 0.3 miles west of the Severin Drive overcrossing. The project utilizes the Cured-in-Place Pipe (CIPP) lining method, which involves inserting a flexible liner into the upstream culvert end treatment, pulling it through to the downstream end, and inflating and curing the liner to harden it. This maintenance project is classified under NAICS code 237310 and is designated as a forecast. The project is exempt under CEQA Section 15301 and categorically excluded under NEPA regulations as it involves the maintenance of existing structures without ground disturbance, grading, temporary construction easements, or permanent acquisitions. To facilitate contractor access to the culvert end treatments, the project will require shoulder, lane, and ramp closures, although no detours are necessary. Emery McCaffery serves as the primary point of contact for this effort.
