Issuance of General Lease – Public Agency Use – Lease 5182

The California State Lands Commission has authorized the issuance of Lease 5182 for a 20-year term beginning September 1, 2026, and ending August 31, 2046, to the Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District for the continued use of an existing storm drain pipeline and outlet structure located on sovereign land adjacent to 7549 North Toletavi Road in Fresno, California. This is a non-competitive, administrative lease action under state law, classified as a categorical exemption under California Code of Regulations Title 14 Section 15301, which confirms the activity involves only the operation and maintenance of an existing public facility with no new construction or environmental impact requiring further review. No federal acquisition regulation clauses, contract pricing, payment instructions, inspection criteria, or evaluation factors are applicable or included, as this is not a federal procurement but a state-level land use authorization. The lease does not involve the delivery of goods, service performance metrics, or financial terms beyond the term of use, and there are no specified requirements for packaging, marking, invoicing, or contract administration personnel. Point of contact for the lease is Christine Day, Senior Environmental Scientist at the California State Lands Commission, with Aaron Cox of the Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control District serving as a secondary liaison. The lease is recorded under File Ref. 5182 and publicly accessible via the CEQA Net project portal.
