Caltrans D6 CVIN Encroachment Permit # 06-25-6-SV-1410

Caltrans District 6 has issued Encroachment Permit 06-25-6-SV-1410 to CVIN for environmental survey work located on State Route 63 in Tulare County. The project area spans from postmile 2.51 at Pacific Avenue to postmile 3.007 at Oakdale Avenue within the City of Tulare. The scope of work consists of windshield surveys to identify and account for sensitive species, with occasional stops permitted only in designated pull-out areas. For safety, vehicles must display a notice when stopped and must remain within the maintained, graded shoulder areas. The project is categorized as a special notice under NAICS code 541620 and is determined to be categorically exempt from further environmental review under Section 15306 Class 6, as it involves basic data collection with no significant environmental impact. Strict prohibitions are in place against any ground disturbance, vegetation disturbance, or wildlife trapping. Administrative oversight is provided by Alex Rangel, Senior Environmental Scientist at Caltrans, with Jenafer Knight serving as the authorized agent for CVIN.
