Streambed Alteration Agreement No. EPIMS-HUM-60292-R1 is a state-level environmental agreement issued by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife to modify Class III watercourses at existing road crossings. The project is located in Humboldt County, California, approximately two miles south of Fortuna, specifically affecting the Van Duzen River and unnamed tributaries. This work is conducted under Nonindustrial Timber Harvesting Plan 1-02NTMP-027-HUM and is governed by the California Environmental Quality Act to ensure the protection of aquatic habitats and water quality through the implementation of specific mitigation measures. The agreement is classified as a forecast and is not a federal procurement contract, meaning it contains no FAR clauses, pricing structures, or monetary considerations, as payment is not required per Public Resources Code section 4629.6(c). The California Department of Fish and Wildlife serves as the lead agency responsible for environmental determinations and CEQA compliance. Key deliverables include the adoption of the Streambed Alteration Agreement, completion of the nonindustrial timber management plan documentation, and the formal adoption of CEQA findings.
