CITY OF ROHNERT PARK ROUTINE STREAM MAINTENANCE PROGRAM, LAKE OR STREAMBED ALTERATION

The City of Rohnert Park is implementing a Routine Stream Maintenance Program to preserve the flow capacity and structural integrity of nine existing city creeks and drainage channels. The scope of work includes selective vegetation trimming and removal, the elimination of invasive species, and the removal of sediment and debris within the existing maintained footprint. These activities are designed to maintain outfalls, culverts, and bridges while reducing fire hazards. The project specifically covers nine reaches, including Copeland Creek, Coleman Creek, Labath Creek, Hinebaugh Creek, Crane Creek, South Fork Drainage Canal, Spivok Creek, Wilfred Creek, and Five Creek. This project is conducted under CDFW Agreement No. EPIMS-SON-62156-R3 and is classified as a Categorical Exemption under California Code regulations, Title 14, Section 15301 for Class I Existing Facilities, as it involves ongoing maintenance without any new construction or expansion of use. The program is managed by Scott Sanders, the Environmental and Sustainability Manager for the City of Rohnert Park. The forecast for this activity was posted on September 10, 2026, under NAICS code 561730, with all performance taking place within Rohnert Park, California.
