Water Well Permit #25066

Water Well Permit 25066 is a forecast for the approval of a production well located at 7619 Machado Lane, Montague, California, within Siskiyou County. The project is designed to provide irrigation for 22 acres of farmland on parcel APN 039-181-270, with planned operations running for 243 days from April through November. Managed by the Siskiyou County Environmental Health Division, the project is classified as a ministerial action and is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under categorical exemptions 15303 and 15061(b)(3). This exemption is supported by a hydrogeological analysis from Larry Walker Associates, which concluded that the well will not significantly impact human health or public trust resources, including the Shasta River. The project must adhere to Siskiyou County codes and policies and remain in compliance with all current and future directives from the Shasta Valley Groundwater Sustainability Agency. Required management actions to ensure groundwater sustainability may include voluntary well metering, reporting of pumping volumes, and adherence to strategic groundwater pumping restrictions. The primary point of contact for this effort is Director Hailey Lang. No specific contract value, pricing schedules, or formal solicitation numbers have been provided in the current documentation.
