CORNING WATER DISTRICT WATER SERVICE CONNECTION PROJECT

The Corning Water District Water Service Connection Project is a local infrastructure initiative led by the Tehama County Flood Control and Water Conservation District to install a direct water service connection from its existing system to an existing customer in the unincorporated Corning Subbasin of Tehama County, California. The project supports the implementation of the Corning Groundwater Sustainability Plan by enabling access to surface water when available, thereby reducing dependency on groundwater and contributing to long-term sustainability in the subbasin. Environmental compliance is governed by categorical exemptions under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), specifically Class 1 for existing facilities and Class 4 for minor alterations to land, which exempt the project from detailed environmental review. Supporting documentation includes a Notice of Exemption, a CDFW No Effect Determination, and proof of payment for an MND fee of $2,968.75 and a Cultural Resources Permit fee of $1,401.75. The project site is located at coordinates 39.88616° N, -122.210865° W, and all work occurs on-site where the new connection interfaces with the existing system. No formal contract line items, pricing structure, or federal acquisition regulations (FAR) clauses are present, and no contract value is specified because this is not a federal procurement but a locally administered water infrastructure effort with administrative and environmental compliance components. Payment for fees is accepted through cash, check, or credit at the district’s physical office in Red Bluff, California, and submissions are handled via paper documents delivered to designated local and state offices. No contracting officer’s representative, technical representative, or formal source selection process is established, and no solicitation number, contract type, or electronic submission platform is assigned. The designated point of contact is Justin Jenson, Director of the district, reachable via phone or email.
