Temporary Permit Application T033514

The project involves a temporary water diversion permit allowing the Scott Valley Irrigation District to draw water from the Scott River between December 15 and March 31 each year through March 31, 2030, with the goal of enhancing fishery habitat conditions within the SVID service area. The application, designated as Temporary Permit Application T033514, was submitted to the California State Water Resources Control Board, Division of Water Rights, and operates under a CEQA exemption authorized by Executive Order N-7-22, which removes the need for full environmental review due to its emergency and beneficial nature for fishery resources. Physical performance occurs in Etna, California, 96027, where water is diverted and spread across designated lands, but no construction or infrastructure development is involved. The permit does not include a financial value, pricing structure, or traditional contract type, as it is a regulatory authorizing action rather than a procurement. There are no federal acquisition regulation clauses, solicitation numbers, contracting officer roles, payment instructions, or formal evaluation criteria, reflecting its nature as a state-administered water rights approval rather than a competitive federal contract. The applicant, Jim Morris of Bryan Morris Ranch, and the lead agency contact, Benjamin McCovery, serve as primary points of communication, while the State Water Resources Control Board retains oversight authority. No unique entity identifiers, socioeconomic certifications, or federal compliance representations are required or provided, further confirming the non-federal, regulatory basis of the authorization.
