Frost Stream Crossings Project (Project) (Notification of Lake or Streambed Alteration, No. EPIMS-MEN-65270-R1C)

The Frost Stream Crossings Project, identified by Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS Notification No. EPIMS-MEN-65270-R1C, is an authorized project executed by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife for David Frost. Located in the Eel River watershed in Mendocino County, approximately 4.5 miles east of Leggett, the project is specifically situated at Assessor's Parcel Number 012-670-29-05. The scope of work is limited to two encroachments for the replacement of existing stream crossing culverts. This process involves the excavation and removal of old culverts, the installation of new properly sized culverts, backfilling, compaction of fill, and the application of rock armoring to minimize erosion. The project is conducted pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code and is classified as a Categorical Exemption under Class 2 of the California Code of Regulations, title 14, section 15302, because the reconstruction maintains substantially the same purpose and capacity as the original structures. Administrative oversight is provided by Penny Lancaster, an Environmental Scientist with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. The project is categorized under NAICS code 237990.
