SC251 Campsite Fence Extension and Installation

The project involves extending and installing new fencing along SC251 within Management Unit 5 of Onyx SVRA to safeguard sensitive park resources and deter unauthorized off-highway vehicle activity in non-riding zones. The fencing will consist of wooden peeler posts and T-posts with smooth wire, strategically placed around campsite areas to block illegal trail creation and reduce ecological disruption. Installation requires drilling 8-inch diameter holes 2 to 3 feet deep using a handheld mechanized auger, followed by backfilling with the excavated soil to minimize environmental disturbance. The design specifically targets protection of creosote and bursage scrub habitats, which are vital for local wildlife, aiming to restore natural vegetation integrity and encourage compliance with designated OHV trail use patterns. The project is managed by the California Department of Parks and Recreation, with the place of performance located in California, zip code 93519. The primary point of contact is Chris Hon, Senior Environmental Scientist (Supervisory), reachable via phone or email for further details. The forecast was posted on October 7, 2025, and while no solicitation number or set-aside information is provided, the initiative underscores a commitment to habitat conservation and responsible recreational use within the state-managed off-highway vehicle area.
