Anderson CIMIS Station

The California Department of Water Resources is initiating the installation of an above-ground weather station near Anderson, California, as part of the California Irrigation Management Information System (CIMIS). Located approximately three miles southeast of Anderson in Shasta County, the project aims to collect and transmit real-time evapotranspiration data to improve irrigation efficiency and water management for local farmers. The project is classified as a forecast under NAICS code 334513 and is managed by Senior Environmental Scientist Evan MacKinnon. The project is categorically exempt from environmental review under section 15306 of the California Public Resources Code for information collection, as it is expected to have no significant environmental impacts. The scope of work includes the installation of the station and the establishment of telemetric data transmission. While the project is officially documented via a Notice of Exemption dated July 25, 2025, there are currently no specified contract values, formal performance periods, or detailed procurement evaluation factors provided.
