725-6SV-2675 - Geotech Boring Project

Caltrans District 7 has approved an encroachment permit for Phillips 66 Company to conduct geotechnical borings, aerially deposited lead surveying, and related temporary traffic control measures along State Route 110 at postmile 2.58 near W Harry Bridges Boulevard and John S Gibson Boulevard in Wilmington, Los Angeles. The geotechnical work will involve drilling to a maximum depth of 120 feet below ground surface using mud rotary or hollow stem auger equipment, with excavation confined to a narrow profile no deeper than 1,440 inches, averaging 4 inches in width and up to 2 feet in length. No alteration to public utilities or acquisition of new right-of-way is required, and all activities will be conducted within the existing state highway right-of-way. Temporary traffic control measures will be implemented to ensure safety and maintain traffic flow during operations. The project is identified under permit number 725-6SV-2675 and was posted as a forecast on July 23, 2026, with primary point of contact Mojgan Abbassi, Senior Environmental Scientist, reachable through Caltrans District 7. All work is subject to adherence to state regulations and permit conditions, with no new infrastructure or utility relocations anticipated. The location falls entirely within the jurisdiction of Los Angeles County, and coordination with local authorities will be maintained to minimize disruption to the surrounding community and traffic patterns.
