Sonoma County Flood Camera Mitigation and Early Warning System Implementation

The Sonoma County Flood Camera Mitigation and Early Warning System Implementation project, identified by document number 25-0428-01, involves the installation of four solar-powered flood monitoring cameras at critical flood-prone road segments within Sonoma County. The primary objectives are to enhance real-time flood monitoring, improve public safety through early warning alerts for hazardous conditions and road closures, and reduce emergency response costs. The project is managed by Sonoma County Public Infrastructure, with Senior Engineer Stevan Hunter serving as the primary point of contact. The scope of work includes the installation of camera poles on county-owned road shoulders at four specific locations: Slusser Rd at Post Mile 10.13, Trenton-Healdsburg Rd at Post Mile 10.37, Wohler Rd at Post Mile 10.07, and Freestone-Valley Ford Rd at Post Mile 10.51. Each installation is designed for minimal ground disturbance of less than 6 square feet. The project is categorized as a forecast under NAICS code 237310 and is exempt from CEQA under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15303, as it consists of minor public infrastructure improvements that do not impact wetlands, endangered species, or historic sites.
