CAD Rock Diversion Dam – Dale/Scott Ditch Project (Streambed Alteration Agreement No. EPIMS MER-15800-R4).

The project involves reconstructing a gravel weir structure to redirect surface flow into the Dale-Scott Ditch Weir system, with the intent of managing water movement in a natural and sustainable manner. Once completed, the weir is designed to be overtopped during increased flow events, allowing water to spill over and carry gravel downstream over time, naturally redistributing the material without mechanical intervention. All rock and gravel placement must occur below the Ordinary High Water Mark, which is designated at an elevation of 259 feet, ensuring compliance with streambed standards and minimizing environmental disruption. The work is governed by Streambed Alteration Agreement No. EPIMS MER-15800-R4 and falls under the jurisdiction of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, Region 4 – Central in Fresno. The project was posted as a forecast on August 5, 2026, with no solicitation number assigned at this stage, indicating it is in the planning and preparatory phase. The primary point of contact for the project is Heather Rodriguez of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, with Ernesto Garcia from the State Water Resources Control Board serving as a supporting contact. The location of performance is within the state of California, though specific city and zip details are not provided. The work is intended to improve hydrologic function in the area while maintaining ecological integrity, and stakeholders are encouraged to coordinate with the listed agency representatives for further details as the project advances toward implementation.
