726-6RW-1451 Lateral Relocation

Caltrans District 7 has granted an encroachment permit to the Cabrillo Economic Development Corporation to establish a direct lateral connection to the Ojai Valley Sanitary District’s sewer main located within the state right-of-way along State Route 33 at post mile 10.76 in the City of Ojai. The work involves excavation to a depth of 6 to 7 feet and requires the implementation of traffic control measures to ensure public safety during construction. No additional right-of-way will be acquired, as all activities will occur within the existing Caltrans easement. The project is classified under the permit number 726-6RW-1451 and was posted as a forecast on July 10, 2026, with all coordination and inquiries managed through the District 7 encroachment permits office. The primary point of contact for this permit is Pauline Lee, Senior Environmental Planner, who can be reached via email at d07.dep-encrpermits@dot.ca.gov or by phone at 213-718-7897. The project is situated entirely within Ventura County and does not involve any new land acquisition or modifications to existing state infrastructure beyond the lateral connection and associated traffic management. All work must comply with Caltrans regulations and environmental standards applicable to activities within state right-of-way, and the permit is issued under the authority of Caltrans District 7, which retains oversight of the project’s execution and compliance.
