Caltrans D6 CVIN Encroachment Permit # 06-25-6-SV-1413

CVIN, LLC has been issued Encroachment Permit #06-25-6-SV-1413 by Caltrans District 6 to conduct environmental survey work along State Route 184 at postmile 4.059 near Arvin, California, within the maintained shoulder of the state right-of-way. The project involves windshield surveys with occasional, brief stops in designated pull-out areas to visually identify and document sensitive species, during which safety notices must be displayed behind vehicles. All activities are strictly limited to observation from the vehicle; no ground disturbance, vegetation removal, or wildlife trapping is permitted. The work qualifies for a categorical exemption under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Class 6 (Section 15306), which supports resource evaluation activities with no potential for significant environmental impact. A Notice of Exemption, along with a certified exemption finding, has been filed with the Office of Planning and Research in Sacramento, fulfilling state regulatory requirements. The permit was issued on September 25, 2025, and no formal contract value, pricing details, or payment terms are specified, indicating this is an administrative permit rather than a competitive procurement. The primary point of contact for the project is Alex Rangel, Senior Environmental Scientist at Caltrans District 6, with Josie Parr listed as the authorized agent. Performance occurs entirely within Kern County along the designated stretch of SR 184, and no delivery, packaging, invoicing, or federal acquisition regulation clauses apply, as this is a state-led environmental compliance action with no federal procurement structure.
