Placer Parkway Phase I Improvements

The Placer Parkway Phase I Improvements project involves the construction of seven culvert crossings along a 1.4-mile stretch of the Placer County Parkway in California. The project area extends southwest from the intersection of Whitney Ranch Parkway and State Route 65 to the intersection of Placer Parkway and North Foothills Boulevard, impacting unnamed tributaries to Orchard Creek and Pleasant Grove Creek. The work is being executed by the Placer County Department of Public Works as the lead agency and project applicant. Regulatory compliance is managed through Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS Notification Number PLA-43758-R2, pursuant to section 1602 of the California Fish and Game Code. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife serves as the responsible agency, having determined that the project will not have a significant environmental effect within its jurisdiction, provided that the lead agency adheres to a mitigated negative declaration and a specific mitigation monitoring plan. Key points of contact for the project include Lori Perron of the Placer County Department of Public Works and Patrick Moeszinger of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
