Permit No. 20019 – Miners Ravine Bridge Project

Permit No. 20019 for the Miners Ravine Bridge Project is a forecast action by Caltrans District 3 in coordination with the Central Valley Flood Protection Board to authorize the existing Interstate 80 bridge structure in Placer County, California. The bridge, located at coordinates 38.75610 N and 121.26293 W, was completed in February 1990, which predates the designation of Miners Ravine as a Regulated Stream. The primary objective of this action is the permitting of existing municipal utilities without any expansion of existing or former use. The project is designated as exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under the Class 1 Existing Facilities categorical exemption per California Code of Regulations Title 14, Section 15301. This exemption is supported by the fact that no expansion of the facility is occurring and no exceptions to the exemption under Section 15300.2 apply. The authorization is further governed by various sections of the Public Resources Code, including sections 21083, 21108, 21110, 21152, and 21152.1. The Notice of Exemption was signed on July 13, 2026.
