Eakle Family Vineyards Grading Permit

The project involves the conversion of approximately 0.95 acres of previously disturbed land within a 20-acre parcel located on the north side of Hardin Road in Pope Valley, Napa County, California, into a permanent farm equipment storage area. The scope includes grading activities and the installation of vegetative screening on gentle slopes with gradients of 0 to 5 percent to provide visual buffering, with all work conducted under Grading Permit ENG25-00039. The project qualifies for a CEQA categorical exemption under Section 15304, Class 4, which applies to minor alterations to land that do not result in significant environmental impacts, and no new land disturbance beyond the existing footprint is permitted. The place of performance is St. Helena, California, with the specific parcel identified by APN 018-160-014. The work is overseen by the Napa County Planning, Building & Environmental Services Department, which serves as the lead agency and approving authority, and is supported by the engineer Paul Bartelt of Bartelt Engineering as the responsible party for implementation. No federal acquisition regulation clauses, contract pricing data, delivery schedules, payment terms, or procurement mechanisms are included, as this is a local government environmental permitting action, not a federal contract. There is no contract value, CLIN structure, invoicing method, or accounting data such as AAC or TAS lines provided. Similarly, there are no formal designations for a contracting officer’s representative, contracting officer’s technical representative, or procuring contracting officer. The submission process involved a Notice of Exemption filed on December 15, 2025, with physical delivery to the Office of Planning and Research in Sacramento, and no electronic submission portal or digital file requirements were specified. No representations, certifications, socioeconomic status claims, UEI, or CAGE codes are associated with the project, and no inspection criteria beyond compliance with the CEQA exemption and local land use regulations are detailed. The project relies entirely on state and local environmental review procedures and does not involve federal contracting requirements, financial disbursements, or acquisition terms typically found in federal procurement instruments.
