Streambed Alteration Agreement No. EPIMS-MEN-58673-R1 for Timber Harvesting Plan (THP) 1-25-00032-MEN

Streambed Alteration Agreement No. EPIMS-MEN-58673-R1 is a regulatory environmental agreement issued by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) to support Timber Harvesting Plan (THP) 1-25-00032-MEN. The project is located in Mendocino County, approximately 9 miles northeast of Fort Bragg, specifically within Sections 19 and 30, Township 20N, Range 16W. The scope of work involves the modification of Class II and Class III watercourses at existing road crossings and the diversion of water from a Class II watercourse, affecting areas such as Bear Haven Creek, Clark Gulch, and the Middle Fork Ten Mile River. This agreement is governed by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the Public Resources Code, rather than federal procurement regulations. As a regulatory permit, it does not have a contract value, as payment is not required under Public Resources Code section 4629.6(c). Key requirements include compliance with CEQA through the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report or Negative Declaration and the implementation of specific mitigation measures to address environmental impacts. The project is managed by the CDFW and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, with primary points of contact being Eric Hedge and Grace Rhoades.
