Green Valley Creek Tributary Channel Restoration

The Green Valley Creek Tributary Channel Restoration project, approved by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife under Fish and Game Code section 1652, is located on an unnamed ephemeral tributary to Green Valley Creek in the Town of Alamo, Contra Costa County. Submitted by the White Gate Homeowners Association, the project aims to stabilize a migrating headcut using a process-based approach. Key activities include the installation of engineered streambed material, the placement of on-site native small woody material and live willow stakes, and the hand-planting of native vegetation to improve bank stability and enhance riparian habitat. The project is classified under NAICS code 237990 and is identified as a forecast with a posted date of August 10, 2026. It qualifies for a Class 33 categorical exemption under California Code of Regulations, title 14, section 15333, as it is a habitat restoration project not exceeding 5 acres. The work is situated north of 3232 Stone Valley Road at Assessor Parcel Number 194-122-017. Primary points of contact include Environmental Scientist Desiree DeLa Vega and Bart Brandenburg.
