Creek Bank Restoration at 1003 Carol Lane Project (Notification of Lake or Streambed Alteration, No. EPIMS-CCA-53564-R3)

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has authorized CAD Masters, Inc. to perform creek bank restoration at 1003 Carol Lane in Lafayette, California, under Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS-CCA-53564-R3, issued pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code. The work involves stabilizing the creek bank by regrading it to a maximum 1.3:1 slope, installing planted rock slope protection using boulders positioned with an excavator equipped with a thumb attachment, applying native seed, and covering the slope with biodegradable netting. Materials will be transported by truck to a staging area at the top of the slope, with excavers used to reshape the slope and place rock, while planting is done manually in coordination with boulder installation. The project is classified as exempt under California Code of Regulations Title 14, Section 15304, indicating it qualifies as a minor land alteration with no significant environmental impact and does not require extensive environmental review. The contract is administered as a regulatory notification rather than a traditional federal procurement, with no standard FAR clauses, evaluation factors, pricing details, or formal contract administration elements such as payment office details, invoicing systems, or contracting officer representatives identified. Performance is limited to the site at 1003 Carol Lane, Lafayette, with no specified period of performance or delivery schedule beyond the submission deadline of July 9, 2025, which coincides with the notice issuance date. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife retains oversight and final acceptance authority, though no formal inspection criteria, quality standards, or deliverables checklist beyond the specified engineering and ecological requirements are outlined. The contractor’s point of contact is Michelle Sipos, and regulatory coordination is managed by Sanjay Das, Senior Environmental Scientist, with no representation or certification requirements from the offeror recorded. The project’s funding and cost data are not provided, and the document serves primarily as a notice of exemption and technical authorization rather than a conventional contract.
