726-6US-1169 Utility Pole Replacement

Caltrans has authorized Southern California Edison to replace utility pole #5038682E within the state right-of-way along State Route 33 at post mile 10.45 in the City of Ojai, Ventura County. The replacement involves installing a new pole two feet northeast of the existing one, with excavation limited to a depth of six feet and dimensions of two feet by two feet. No relocation of public utilities or acquisition of additional right-of-way is required. The permit also encompasses necessary traffic control measures to ensure safety during the work. All activities are confined to the existing right-of-way and will not disturb any other infrastructure or services. The project is identified under the permit title 726-6US-1169 Utility Pole Replacement and was posted on June 4, 2026, by Caltrans District 7 in Los Angeles. The primary point of contact for inquiries is Pauline Lee, Senior Environmental Planner, reachable via email at d07.dep-encrpermits@dot.ca.gov or by phone at 213-718-7897. The work is taking place within the established Caltrans ROW and does not require any new permits for land use or utility relocation. The project remains within the scope of routine maintenance and replacement activities, with no significant environmental or operational impacts anticipated beyond the immediate work area.
