AI Contract Overview

The Anzar Road Culvert Emergency Repair Project involves the urgent restoration of a 7-foot diameter, 1,000-foot long corrugated metal pipe culvert located under US Route 101 and Anzar Road in San Benito County. The project is necessitated by advanced degradation, including the loss of the culvert invert and the formation of a sinkhole in the embankment. The scope of work includes installing rock slope protection, replacing flared end sections, relocating utilities, vegetation trimming and removal, and implementing temporary stream diversion and dewatering. The project is being executed in 2025 under an Emergency Force Account following a Director's Order Request from Caltrans District 5. To facilitate these repairs, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife issued Incidental Take Permit No. 2081-2025-035-04, authorizing the incidental take of the threatened California tiger salamander. The project is expected to cause a temporary loss of approximately 1.49 acres of upland habitat, including oak and riparian woodlands. To mitigate these impacts, the project requires the establishment of avoidance zones, permanent habitat protection, worker education, and the submission of monthly compliance reports. The project is granted a statutory exemption under CEQA as it involves immediate action to prevent damage to public infrastructure.

Full Description

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has issued an Incidental Take Permit (ITP) No. 2081-2025-035-04 authorizing Caltrans to incidentally take California tiger salamander (Ambystoma californiense) which is designated as a threatened species under the California Endangered Species Act (Fish & G. Code § 2050 et seq.; Cal. Code Regs. tit. 14 § 670.5, subd. (b)(3)(G)). The Project involves the emergency repair of a 7-foot diameter, approximately 1,000-foot-long corrugated metal pipe culvert that has experienced advance degradation including erosion and loss of the invert (bottom of the culvert), and a sinkhole has formed in the embankment above the culvert inlet. The Project also includes the installation of rock slope protection, replacement of flared end sections, utility relocation, equipment access and staging, vegetation trimming and removal, as well as temporary stream diversion and dewatering. The Project is expected to cause the temporary loss of approximately 1.49 acres of upland habitat for California tiger salamander due to vegetation removal and temporary ground disturbance associated with constructing features, access, and staging. Approximately half of the impact involves removal of oak and riparian woodland habitats that are expected to take five or more years to restore species habitat to pre-construction conditions.
