Alta Mesa Road Culvert Replacement (Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS Notification No. SAC-59954-R2)

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has authorized the in-kind replacement of a collapsed culvert on Alta Mesa Road in Sacramento County under Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS Notification No. SAC-59954-R2, executed pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code. The project involves restoring stream passage by replacing the existing failed culvert without expanding the footprint, altering the original design capacity, or impacting sensitive habitats. The work is confined to a previously disturbed area and qualifies for categorical exemptions under the California Environmental Quality Act, specifically CEQA Sections 15303 and 15304, which recognize the project as a minor alteration to land and a minor public works improvement with no significant environmental consequences. Sacramento County is the applicant and responsible party for carrying out the replacement, with oversight and regulatory approval provided by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, Region 2 – Northern Central. The project location is identified at geographic coordinates 38.25243° N, -121.22662° W on an unnamed tributary to Dry Creek, approximately 0.23 mile south of Boessow Road. While no contract value, pricing details, or formal delivery schedule are specified, the posting date of September 17, 2025, reflects the execution of the environmental notification. Contact points include Harvey Tran of CDFW as the Senior Environmental Scientist and Anastasia Shippey of Sacramento County as the project coordinator. The project does not involve federal acquisition regulations, with no applicable FAR clauses, procurement terms, payment instructions, inspection standards, or socioeconomic certifications included, as it is a state-level environmental compliance action focused solely on infrastructure repair under California’s regulatory framework.
