TD2259242 Springville Ranch Idle Pole Removal Project

The TD2259242 Springville Ranch Idle Pole Removal Project, managed by the State Water Resources Control Board and Southern California Edison, involves the removal of two specific poles, 5020347E and 5022801E, along the Idle Springfield-Tule River 66 kV sub-transmission line. The work is located in Tulare County, California, at two distinct sites relative to Highway 190, specifically 40 feet to the west at coordinates 36.136979, -118.796220 and 370 feet to the east at coordinates 36.135925, -118.793260. This project is classified as maintenance of an existing electrical facility with no expansion of use, qualifying it for a categorical exemption under section 15301 of the California Public Resources Code. The project will result in temporary environmental impacts to wetland habitats and stream channels due to equipment staging and the pole removal process. Administrative oversight includes primary contact Shawn Agarwal, an Engineering Geologist, and Robert LeMoine, Director of Environmental Services. While the technical scope and environmental exemptions are detailed, the available documentation does not specify the contract value, pricing schedules, or specific performance timelines.
