Adams Pond Restoration Project

The Adams Pond Restoration Project, managed by the Resource Conservation District of Tehama County, focuses on restoring a 4.6-acre agricultural pond in Red Bluff, California, that was impacted by the McFarland Fire. The primary scope of work involves the removal and disposal of 80,000 cubic yards of sediment to restore the pond's capacity. This process includes disposing of sediment in an upland location and within a state-regulated ephemeral drainage, which will be restored to a higher elevation with a gradual slope. The project will result in temporary impacts to 3.2 acres of the pond, 0.003 acres of intermittent stream, and 0.025 acres of state-regulated drainage, with 1:1 mitigation credits being purchased to offset the drainage impacts. The project is classified as a forecast under NAICS code 237990 and is governed by California environmental regulations. It qualifies for categorical exemptions under CEQA sections 15301(h) for water supply maintenance and 15333 for small habitat restoration projects. Jon Barrett, the District Manager, serves as the primary point of contact. While the project is located in Red Bluff, California, the provided documentation does not specify a formal contract value, specific period of performance, or federal acquisition clauses, as it is primarily focused on environmental compliance and exemption filings.
