Burch Creek Sewer Force Main Replacement Project

The City of Corning Public Works Department is initiating the Burch Creek Sewer Force Main Replacement Project in Tehama County, California. The primary objective is to replace the existing sewer main crossing the Burch Creek bridge, which was damaged by debris during previous storm events. This critical infrastructure repair is necessary to ensure the continued reliability of sewage utilities for local residents and businesses. To prevent future damage and mitigate elevated water levels, the project scope also includes the removal of sediment from the creek bed that is currently restricting water flow. The project is classified under NAICS code 237110 and is located in Corning, California, at coordinates 39.913016, -122.197591. According to the Notice of Exemption, the project qualifies for a Categorical Exemption under Class 2, Section 15302(c), as the replacement occurs in the same location with negligible or no expansion of capacity. Christina Meeds, Planner II, serves as the primary point of contact for the agency.
