Napa County West Pueblo Avenue Ditch Repair Project

The Napa County West Pueblo Avenue Ditch Repair Project involves the repair and improvement of a County-maintained stormwater drainage facility located at parcel APN 042-132-046-000 in the City of Napa. The primary scope of work is the replacement of an existing open drainage ditch with a 24-inch storm drain pipe within the same alignment. This project aims to eliminate bank erosion to increase public safety and preserve both public and private property. The work consists of minor alterations to public infrastructure and the reconstruction of a facility with substantially the same purpose and capacity, resulting in no expansion of use. All construction activities will take place within a previously disturbed corridor and the existing drainage alignment, specifically between West Pueblo Avenue and Delpha Drive, affecting areas near Edith, Margo, Geraldine, and Burnette Courts. To ensure minimal environmental impact and operational feasibility, construction is mandated to occur during the dry season when there is no flow in the ditch. The project is classified under NAICS code 237990 and has been granted categorical exemptions under CEQA Sections 15301 and 15302, as it will not create new disturbance areas beyond the existing footprint or result in significant environmental impacts. Administrative oversight is provided by Dana Morrison, Supervising Planner for Napa County.
