PLNP2024-00168 Southeast Watt Tentative Map Extension #2

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has authorized SW 57, LLC under Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS Notification Number SAC-65041-R2 to undertake partial realignment of Florin Creek and install a new box culvert as part of the Southeast Watt subdivision within the Florin Vineyard Gap Community Plan area. This action is conducted in accordance with section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to ensure minimal impact on aquatic resources while enabling development. The project is narrowly scoped to modify a segment of the creek and replace existing infrastructure with a structurally improved culvert to support the subdivision’s infrastructure needs. The initiative is tied to PLNP2024-00168, the Southeast Watt Tentative Map Extension #2, with the forecast posted on July 2, 2026, under the oversight of Sacramento County and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. Julie Newton, Project Proponent for Sacramento County, serves as the primary point of contact, while Harvey Tran, Senior Environmental Scientist and Specialist with CDFW, provides environmental oversight. The project remains entirely within California, with no indication of federal involvement or set-aside classifications, and operates under the state’s environmental regulatory framework to balance development with aquatic habitat protection.
