Bethany Reservoir State Recreation Area Interpretive Panel

The California Department of Parks and Recreation, specifically the Diablo Range District, is overseeing the installation of a new interpretive panel at the Bethany Reservoir State Recreation Area in Alameda County. The primary objective of the project is to provide visitors with educational information regarding the park's bird population. The scope of work involves State Parks staff using hand tools to excavate two 24-inch-deep post holes on the northwest side of the park, installing two 8-inch diameter wooden posts backfilled with concrete, and securing a 24-inch by 42-inch interpretive panel using a bolt and washer assembly. All excavated soils will be spread on-site. This project is classified under NAICS code 237990 and is categorized as a special notice. Due to the minor nature of the work and the negligible expansion of use, the project is categorically exempt from certain environmental reviews under California Environmental Quality Act Classes 1, 3, and 4. Administrative coordination for the project is managed by Diana Fong, the District Environmental Coordinator.
