Edenhurst Ave On-Ramp Interchange Guy Power Pole Replacement

The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power is proposing to replace a guy power pole that was damaged and downed within the Caltrans Right-of-Way at the Edenhurst Avenue/Colorado Street freeway exit on-ramp interchange in Los Angeles, California, zip code 90039. The work involves excavating a 6.5-foot-deep, 13-inch-diameter hole using a digger derrick, bucket truck, and foreman truck, followed by installing a new 45-foot-tall pole to restore structural support for the existing power distribution infrastructure. All equipment will be staged on sparsely vegetated areas within the right-of-way, with no vegetation removal required, ensuring minimal environmental disturbance. The project is categorically exempt from environmental review under CEQA Sections 15301 and 15302, as it constitutes a minor alteration and replacement of an existing facility without expansion of function or capacity. The exemption was formally approved on January 20, 2026, by the Manager of Environmental Planning and Assessment, with the notice publicly posted on January 22, 2026. The primary point of contact for environmental and project matters is James R. Howe, Environmental Specialist, reachable via phone or email. The project location is clearly identified, and while the estimated contract value is not specified, the scope is limited to the physical replacement of the pole, with no additional construction, upgrades, or modifications to the utility system. No federal acquisition regulation clauses, funding codes, invoicing methods, or formal contract administration roles such as COR or PCO are documented, indicating this is a state-level agency project administered under CEQA rather than a federal procurement. The agency’s headquarters address is listed as 111 N. Hope Street, Room 1044, Los Angeles, CA 90012, and while no formal delivery schedule or performance period is stated, work is anticipated to proceed following environmental approval. No formal evaluation factors, representations from offerors, packaging requirements, or special contract provisions beyond CEQA compliance are included in the documentation.
