Permit No. 19841 –Hinrichsen Levee Stairs and Utilities Project

The Hinrichsen Levee Stairs and Utilities Project, identified as Permit No. 19841, is a construction effort managed by the Central Valley Flood Protection Board located at 949 Piedmont Drive in Sacramento, California. The scope of work involves the installation of 4-foot wide concrete steps on both sides of the levee, consisting of thirty-three steps on the landside slope with an accompanying handrail and twenty-four steps on the waterside slope. Additionally, the project requires the installation of a three-quarter inch PVC water pipe and a three-quarter inch double-walled electrical conduit buried at a minimum depth of 24 inches, extending from the landside levee toe across the crown to the waterside stairs. The utility installation includes an emergency shutoff valve on the landside hinge and 18 level pop-up sprinkler heads, divided equally between the landside and waterside slopes, featuring double wall piping and a leak detection sensor. To complete the site work, natural grasses and wildflowers will be planted as ground cover. This project is classified under NAICS code 237990 and has been granted a Notice of Exemption from the California Environmental Quality Act under categorical exemptions Classes 2, 3, and 4.
