720 West I Street Revetment Project

The 720 West I Street Revetment Project, managed by the City of Benicia, involves two independent construction efforts located near a residential property in Benicia, California. Site One consists of the construction of approximately 92 linear feet of a 7.9-foot-tall concrete block keystone wall, featuring a two-foot-wide footing on a six-inch unreinforced concrete leveling pad, which will connect to an existing block retaining wall along a drainage canal. Site Two involves the installation and replacement of approximately 105 linear feet of riprap rock slope protection along the Carquinez Strait shoreline, utilizing Caltrans Class III riprap with a thickness of 2.7 feet extending eight feet above mean seal level. The project is classified as a forecast under NAICS code 237990 and is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under Sections 15301 through 15303 as it involves minor alterations and repairs. Execution of the work requires the approval of a City Grading Permit. Administrative oversight is provided by the City of Benicia Development Services Department, with Vivien Togonon serving as the Associate Planner and Nick Wiemar as the Junior Civil Engineer.
