Castaic Concrete Pads

The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power is forecasting the installation of a 48 by 46.5 foot rebar-reinforced concrete pad adjacent to Unit 7 at the Castaic Power Plant in Santa Clarita, California. This project is designed to provide a stable surface for storing cargo containers and equipment necessary for an upcoming 230kV circuit breaker replacement. The scope of work is limited to minor grading and excavation with a maximum depth of 18 to 24 inches, all of which will be contained within the existing operational boundary of the plant without the installation of new structures or utilities. The project is categorized as a forecast and is managed by Environmental Specialist Alexandria Fortaleza. It has been granted a categorical exemption under California Environmental Quality Act Section 15301(b) for the maintenance of existing facilities, as the work involves negligible expansion of use. While the project is associated with a July 2025 timeline, specific contract values, performance periods, and federal acquisition regulations are not defined in the current documentation. Inspection and acceptance will occur at the destination site located at 37700 Templin Highway.
