ESD25-00372 Patterson Sand & Gravel Bank Stabilization Sheet Pile Wall Extension Grading Permit

The project involves the construction of a 200-foot sheet pile wall extension along the north bank of the Bear River at Assessor’s Parcel Number 018-032-001-510, approximately 1,900 feet west of the mine wash plant at 8705 Camp Far West Road in Placer County, California. This work is an extension of prior grading permits and is aimed at stabilizing the riverbank to prevent catastrophic erosion that could compromise a 70-acre mine wash water settling pond, thereby avoiding uncontrolled downstream flooding and environmental damage. The project has been determined eligible for exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), specifically Class 7 (Section 15307) for natural resource protection and emergency exemption (Section 15269(c)), due to imminent risk of levee failure. The Placer County Community Development Resource Agency is the lead agency responsible for approval and oversight, with Claudia Garcia as the primary point of contact for environmental coordination. The grading permit was approved on December 5, 2025, and publicly posted on December 9, 2025. No federal acquisition regulations (FAR) provisions apply, as this is a local permitting action rather than a federal contract. There is no identified contract value, pricing, payment office, invoicing system, or accounting data such as TAS or AAC. No formal contract type, evaluation factors, special requirements, or procurement clauses are present, and there is no competitive solicitation structure, offeror certifications, or contractor selection criteria detailed. The place of performance is clearly defined by the parcel number and physical address, but no delivery terms, FOB conditions, or period of performance dates beyond the permit approval are specified. Inspection and acceptance responsibilities lie with the government agency, with no technical quality standards or performance metrics outlined beyond the environmental exemption rationale. The process is administrative and exempt under state environmental law, with no federal contracting mechanisms, subcontracting plans, or contractor representations required, and no structured attachments, packaging instructions, or electronic submission protocols documented.
