Reptilians Timber Harvesting Plan 4-25-00029-ELD (Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS Notification No. EPIMS-ELD-62127-R2)

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife executed Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS-ELD-62127-R2 with Sierra Pacific Industries under Fish and Game Code Section 1611 to authorize limited aquatic and terrestrial disturbances associated with timber harvesting operations outlined in Timber Harvesting Plan 4-25-00029-ELD. The approved activities include the use of eight water drafting sites, construction of a temporary ford crossing and two low water crossings, installation of corrugated metal pipe with rocked overflow, and creation of a temporary skid crossing, all located within El Dorado County in the CALWATER watersheds including Big Silver Creek, Maud Lake, and Union Valley Reservoir, with specific geographic coordinates defined by USGS quads and township-range boundaries. The agreement is a regulatory permit, not a federal procurement contract, and therefore does not contain standard Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, cost structures, payment instructions, invoicing systems, or contracting officer roles. There is no defined contract value, delivery schedule, or FOB terms because the instrument is an environmental authorization rather than a procurement. Inspection and acceptance are overseen by CDFW based on compliance with the Fish and Game Code and the California Code of Regulations, though no formal monitoring or reporting plan was adopted. Key contacts include CDFW Environmental Program Manager Jennifer Garcia and Environmental Scientist Carlee Cockrum, along with Yanik Zuluaga from the Department of Forestry and Fire Protection as the lead agency representative. The agreement was signed on November 7, 2025, and publicly posted on November 12, 2025, with submissions directed to the CDFW North Central Region office in Rancho Cordova through the CEQA Submit portal, and no UEI, CAGE code, socioeconomic certifications, or federal representations were required or provided.
