Johnson Cosumnes Mitigation Bank Floodplain Restoration Project

The Johnson Cosumnes Mitigation Bank Floodplain Restoration Project is a 204-acre ecological restoration initiative located in south Sacramento County, California, near the confluence of Laguna Creek and the Cosumnes River, with coordinates at 38.2874, -121.38143. The project aims to establish a functional mitigation bank with 200 acres eligible for credits by restoring natural hydrologic processes within the Cosumnes River floodway. This involves selectively notching existing agricultural berms along the river’s mainstem and west branch, constructing shallow swales and secondary pilot channels to reestablish floodplain inundation, and redistributing 30,200 cubic yards of native material to create an undulating floodplain surface conducive to wetland, riparian, and riverine habitat development. Additional work includes native revegetation and the placement of erosion control measures to ensure long-term stability and ecological function. The project is statutorily exempt from CEQA under California Public Resources Code Section 21080.56, with formal concurrence from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife dated May 23, 2025, affirming its eligibility as a habitat restoration effort benefiting native fish and wildlife. The Central Valley Flood Protection Board is the lead agency, with Sacramento County serving as an approving entity, and Westervelt Ecological Services, LLC identified as the applicant and responsible contractor.
