Enforcement No. 2024-15704 – Notice to Proceed with Compliance Plan and Schedule for Levee Restoration and Pipe Repair/Replacement

The Central Valley Flood Protection Board is acting under Enforcement Case 2024-15704 to implement a Compliance Plan and Schedule for the restoration of approximately 8,700 linear feet of landside levee toe along Middle Creek and Scotts Creek in Lake County, California. The work involves removing surface vegetation, regrading, backfilling, and recompacting the levee slope to restore it to its as-built and pre-alteration conditions, ensuring structural integrity and environmental compliance. This action is administratively authorized under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) categorical exemptions classified under Sections 15301, 15302, 15304, and 15321, which exempt the project from full environmental review due to its nature as a restoration effort tied to existing infrastructure and regulatory enforcement. The place of performance is clearly defined within the Lake County Watershed Protection District, Units 02 and 03, with acceptance occurring on-site by the Central Valley Flood Protection Board. Although no formal contract value, pricing structure, or financial accounting details are provided, the Notice to Proceed was issued following a signature date of August 21, 2025, with public posting on August 22, 2025, establishing the formal commencement of compliance activities. The project is driven by regulatory obligations rather than standard procurement, and while key contact information is provided through Jennifer Calles, Senior Environmental Scientist, no formal contracting officer, COR, COTR, or payment office details are included in the documentation. No standard FAR clauses, special contract requirements, evaluation factors, or socioeconomic certifications are present, indicating this is an administrative enforcement action executed under state environmental law rather than a federally governed acquisition. Deliverables are strictly performance-based, focused solely on achieving the engineered and ecological restoration outcomes as outlined in the approved plan, with no packaging, marking, delivery terms, invoicing instructions, or electronic submission protocols specified.
