Nature-like Fishway Pre-construction Site Exploration Project

The Nature-like Fishway Pre-construction Site Exploration Project is a forecast initiative led by the Yuba County Water Agency. The project is located at Daguerre Point on the south bank of the lower Yuba River, adjacent to Daguerre Point Dam in Yuba County, California. The primary objective is to perform temporary potholing and subsurface exploration to collect essential geotechnical data, which will support the final design and construction planning for the proposed Nature-like Fishway project. The scope of work involves temporary site characterization and minor, short-term land disturbances. Due to the nature of these activities, the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under CCR title 14, sections 15306 and 15304, as it is determined to have no significant environmental impact. Jacob Vander Meulen, the Environmental Manager, serves as the primary point of contact for the agency. The project is categorized under NAICS code 541370.
