Region 4 Permits - The Project as described in the ITP as issued by CDFW included construction, operation, and maintenance of a 530-megawatt photovoltaic solar power-generating facility and up to 113 MW of battery energy storage. In issuing the ITP, CDFW found, among other things, that compliance with the Conditions of Approval of the ITP would fully mitigate impacts to the Covered Species and would not jeopardize the continued existence of the Covered Species. Take of western Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia) for the Project was previously authorized through emergency regulations adopted under Fish and Game Code section 2084 and CCR Title 14, section 749.10. Projects authorized for western Joshua tree take are limited solely to the take of the individuals identified in the Project census. However, the emergency regulations do not include take authorization for newly germinated or clonal western Joshua tree individuals. On November 4, 2025, CDFW received an amendment request from the Permittee requesting to add all western Joshua tree (including seedbank, dead, newly germinated, and/or resprouted individuals) as a Covered Species to the ITP. On December 19, 2025, Permittee requested to add Crotch's bumble bee (Bombus crotchii) as a Covered Species to the ITP.

Region 4 Permits - On March 20, 2025, CDFW received an application and on March 21, 2025, received the corresponding application fee from the Permittees, requesting a major amendment to the ITP. The Permittees requested to modify the Project Description to explicitly allow for the Project to occur in two defined phases (Phase 1 and 2) instead of 'phases', more generally, and to allow the Permittees to provide HM lands, interim management funding, and long-term management funding in two phases. The Permittees proposed to develop 31 acres and conserve 92 acres of HM lands prior to Phase 1 and to develop 219 acres and conserve 439 acres of HM lands prior to Phase 2. The total development footprint and HM lands acreage of 249.9 acres and 531 acres, respectively, remains the same as the original ITP. CDFW finds that this amendment (Major Amendment No. 2) is a Major Amendment, as defined in California Code of Regulations, title 14, section 783.6, subdivision (c)(5). Issuance of Major Amendment No. 2 will not increase the amount of impacts to the Covered Species compared to the Project as originally approved (i.e., "impacts of taking" as used in Fish and Game Code Section 2081, subd. (b)(2)) and does not affect CDFW's previous determination that issuance of the ITP meets and is otherwise consistent with the permitting criteria set forth in Fish and Game Code section 2081, subdivisions (b) and (c).

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 13:47:45 -0800

Region 4 Permits - On January 7, 2026, CDFW received a received an official request and the associated fee payment from the Permittee for a second minor amendment to the ITP to include specific construction phases, to allow for the phased purchase of Covered Species credits by construction phase, and to allow for establishing security funding. The request is due to the immediate need to construct the administration building and associated infrastructure which is within the Desalination Plant footprint of the Project as the Permittee refines the final design on other portions of the Project, and to allow for the flexibility to construct the administration building and purchase the corresponding Covered Species mitigation credits for just that phase of the Project. The minor amendment will also update Permittee contact information, and other non-substantial revisions. CDFW finds that this Amendment is a Minor Amendment, as defined in California Code of Regulations, title 14, section 783.6, subdivision (c)(4). Issuance of this Amendment will not increase the amount of take of the Covered Species compared to the Project as originally approved, nor will this amendment increase other Project impacts on the Covered Species (i.e., "impacts of taking" as used in Fish and Game Code Section 2081, subd. (b)(2)). Issuance of this Amendment does not affect CDFW's previous determination that issuance of the ITP meets and is otherwise consistent with the permitting criteria set forth in Fish and Game Code section 2081, subdivisions (b) and (c).

Region 3 Permits - As of April 7, 2025, CDFW received from the Permittee a request to include white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) as a Covered Species in the ITP. This amendment request is based on a change in status for white sturgeon which became a candidate species for listing as Threatened under the California Endangered Species Act (CESA) on July 12, 2024. As the Permittee only requested inclusion of an additional Covered Species without an increase in the activities resulting in impacts to the original Covered Species, this amendment request will not result in additional take of the originally Covered Species. Additionally, take of white sturgeon in the form of mortality is not anticipated to occur as a result of the Project, rather, take is anticipated in the form of pursue, catch, and capture from fish rescue and relocation activities pursuant to the Mare Island Dry Dock Fish Rescue and Relocation Plan, Revised, Mare Island, Solano County, prepared by WRA, Inc., revised May 20, 2014, April 10, 2020, and August 25, 2025.

Region 4 Permits - On April 28, 2025, CDFW received an application and the corresponding application fee from the Permittee requesting a minor amendment to the ITP. The Permittee requested to add County of Merced (County) as a third permittee because the County will construct the Campus Parkway project on the west side of Community North (Figure 4c), and UC Merced will issue the County a right-of-way easement for the Campus Parkway project. The Campus Parkway is a roadway located on the east side of the City of Merced that will eventually extend from Highway 99 to UC Merced. The County completed the roadway segment between Highway 99 and Yosemite Avenue and needs to continue construction of the roadway to UC Merced. The Campus Parkway project was identified in the 2009 and 2020 UC Merced Long Range Development Plan (LRDP) and analyzed in the 2009 UC Merced and University Community Project Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement (EIR/EIS) and UC Merced 2020 LRDP Project Subsequent EIR. No new permit conditions are imposed as a result of this amendment, however CDFW determined that modifications to multiple Conditions of Approval were necessary to replace numerical references to Conditions of Approval by their title, add clarifying language to ensure that the Conditions of Approval are implemented as intended to minimize impacts on the Covered Species, add "Designated Monitors" where "Designated Monitors" was not added as part of Major Amendment No. 3, update CDFW contact information, and update Liability language as its relates to Amendment No. 4. In addition, the Project Description was updated to include the UC Merced 2020 LRDP Project Subsequent EIR because it is relevant to the Project and Campus Parkway. The following figures and attachments were added to the ITP: Figures 4a through 4c showing the 2020 LRDP land use designation and Campus Parkway Project; an updated Attachment 3 Habitat Management Lands Checklist; and Attachment 5, an optional Biologist Resume Form per Condition of Approval Designated Biologist(s) and/or Designated Monitor(s). CDFW finds that this Amendment (Major Amendment No. 4) is a Major Amendment, as defined in California Code of Regulations, title 14, section 783.6, subdivision (c)(5). Issuance of Major Amendment No. 4 will not increase the amount of take of the Covered Species compared to the Project as originally approved, nor will Major Amendment No. 4 increase other Project impacts on the Covered Species (i.e., "impacts of taking" as used in Fish and Game Code Section 2081, subd. (b)(2)).

Region 3 Permits - The Project includes two main elements: (1) upgrades to an existing sewer line and (2) construction of a new public access trail, on approximately the same alignment. The Springtown Sewer Trunkline Project includes installation of a new sewer transmission main as a way to improve the Permittee's ability to properly maintain the sewer trunkline. The existing 33-inch sewer pipe was previously installed when a bigger build-out of the North Livermore area was anticipated by the Permittee. As a result, the existing pipe is oversized and the flow in the pipe is insufficient to flush the line, requiring higher levels of maintenance. The existing line is also hard to maintain and difficult to access because of the proximity to Arroyo Las Positas. In addition, the existing pipe is an unlined reinforced concrete pipe, subject to corrosion, and at the end of its useful life. The City of Livermore's Risk Management Program identified this line as one of the highest risk sewer lines due to proximity to the stream channel and wetlands, the condition of the pipe, and the level of flow in the pipe. The new alignment will be farther away from Arroyo Las Positas, allowing easier access and maintenance, and the material will be corrosion resistant to reduce the risk of future failure. The trail portion of the Project involves construction of a new trail that will connect to existing and future trails in the City of Livermore. The trail improvements are envisioned in the City of Livermore's Bicycle, Pedestrian & Trails Active Transportation Plan.

On December 19, 2024, CDFW received a request from the Permittee for a third major amendment to the ITP, as amended, and the corresponding fee payment. The Permittee requested to amend the ITP, as previously amended, to update the Project description due to considerable changes in the construction means and methods since the issuance of the original ITP in December of 2015. These changes resulted in the need to update the extent of project-related impacts to Covered Species habitat and included requested changes to the original monitoring methodology to better reflect worksite conditions.

Region 4 Permits - On May 29, 2025, CDFW received a request from the Permittee for a major amendment to the ITP, as amended, and the corresponding fee payment. The request includes extending the expiration date for an additional 6 months, updating the Contact Person, adding a new work area (Work Area 6) to the Project Location, updating the Project Description, adding Figure 6, and adding the replacement of the Thermal Electric Generator (TEG) and installation of a new concrete pad within Work Area 6 to the Project Description and Covered Activities sections. SoCalGas has identified the urgent need to restore the cathodic protection current being generated by the TEG. This TEG has met its useful lifespan and needs to be replaced to meet the minimum cathodic protection criteria and to prevent corrosion and pipeline failure. CDFW finds that this Amendment is a Major Amendment, as defined in California Code of Regulations, title 14, section 783.6, subdivision (c)(5). Issuance of this Amendment may increase the amount of take of the Covered Species compared to the Project as originally approved; however, it will not increase Project impacts on the Covered Species (i.e., "impacts of taking" as used in Fish and Game Code Section 2081, subd. (b)(2)). Issuance of this Amendment does not affect CDFW's previous determination that issuance of the ITP meets and is otherwise consistent with the permitting criteria set forth in Fish and Game Code section 2081, subdivisions (b) and (c).

Region 1 Permits - The Project proposes to replace the bridges over Hely Creek and Butte Creek, and to widen the bridge over Little Larabee Creek. Presently all three bridges do not meet current design standards. In 2021, CDFW issued the Project a CESA Consistency Determination (CD, #2080-2021-012-01). Caltrans' current application for an ITP is for two reasons. First, over the two in-water construction seasons covered in the prior CESA CD (2023 and 2024), the Project relocated close to five times more steelhead (winter and summer-run) during water diversions (Hely Creek and Little Larabee Creek) than was predicted (636 vs 160); resulting in a take exceedance of Covered Species. Second, while the prior CESA CD only analyzed two seasons of stream dewatering, Caltrans now anticipates a third in water construction season for Hely, Little Larabee and potentially Butte creeks will be needed.

Region 4 Permits - On December 20, 2024, CDFW received an application and corresponding fee payment from the Permittee requesting a major amendment to the ITP. The request includes modifying the Project Location and Project Description sections of the ITP to add the following three new activities for the natural gas pipeline, Line 300B: 1) one investigative dig (ID-650G-1); 2) one pipeline replacement (R-1918); and 3) one installation of a main line valve station and blowdown stack (V-849). Cross compression will be required during the activities to temporarily transfer gas from Line 300B to Line 300A and will occur at the Mile Point (MP) 410.87 valve lot. All three of the aforementioned activities will be conducted during a single cross compression clearance of Line 300B to minimize impacts. The request also includes extending the expiration date of the ITP from July 1, 2026, to July 1, 2031, to allow for completion of all activities and restoration of the sites. The new activities cumulatively add 2.35 acres of new temporary impacts and 0.02 acres of new permanent impacts. Prior to submission of the ITP amendment application, Covered Activities were completed at the ID-78 and Span 24 portions of the Project, and Covered Activities associated with the cross compression and Span 27 portions of the Project were cancelled. As such, the actual impacts to date total 0.71 acres of the proposed 1.41 acres. Cross compression will remain as part of the Project in association with the three new activities and Span 27 will be removed from the Project.

Region 4 Permits - On October 10, 2024, CDFW received an application and corresponding fee payment from the Permittee requesting a third major amendment to the ITP. The request includes increasing the Project footprint by 90.4 acres to accommodate two additional borrow areas (Borrow Areas 20 and 21), adding an additional 1.3 acres of impact to an existing drainage, ditch D-05, which will need additions to the total length of the drainage that will need to be relocated to accommodate downstream stability berms, increase the footprint of contractor use areas and dam stability berms, and construct a temporary haul road under State Route 152 for a total Project footprint of 1,924.84 acres. An existing DWR maintenance yard must be permanently relocated to accommodate downstream stability berms. Therefore, the request includes changing 11.4 acres of temporary impacts on SJKF to permanent impacts as a result of establishing a permanent DWR maintenance yard (8.1 acres) and access road (3.3 acres) to an area currently used by the Project for temporary staging. These 11.4 acres were included in the original ITP and mitigated as temporary impacts. CDFW finds that this Amendment (Major Amendment No. 3) is a Major Amendment as defined in California Regulations, title 14, section 783.6, subdivision (c)(5). Issuance of Major Amendment No. 3 will increase the amount of take of the Covered Species by an additional 67.78 acres of permanent habitat impacts, increasing the total permanent impacts to 201.87 acres; however, by implementing Conditions of Approval that require additional permanent protection of compensatory habitat, it is not expected that Major Amendment No. 3 will increase Project impacts on these Covered Species (i.e., "impacts of taking" as used in Fish and Game Code Section 2081, subd. (b)(2)). Issuance of Major Amendment No. 3 does not affect CDFW's previous determination that issuance of the ITP meets and is otherwise consistent with the permitting criteria set forth in Fish and Game Code section 2081, subdivisions (b) and (c).

The Project will need to start immediately to address safety regulatory requirements, or the CPUC may require that Transmission Line 85 be isolated or reduce the amount of natural gas running through the pipeline to avoid safety concerns. A reduction or isolation of this segment of the line could cause the loss of a public service essential to the health, safety, and welfare of Southern California Gas Company's natural gas customers throughout the San Joaquin Valley.

Region 4 Permits - On August 6, 2024, CDFW received a request from the Permittee for a minor amendment to the ITP, as amended, and on August 15, 2024, CDFW received the corresponding fee payment. The Permittee seeks to revise the southern boundary of the Project site involving a reduction and an extension of the Project fence line. The revision consists of an overall reduction in the extent of the fenced solar facility from approximately 552 acres to approximately 520 acres. While the area encompassed by the perimeter fence has been reduced, a new area totaling approximately 7.5 acres will extend beyond the original boundary. Regardless of the fencing boundary reduction and extension, the total Covered Species impact acreage (i.e. 397.7 acres) remains unchanged. Figure 1 will be revised to reflect the new Project fence line boundary. This Minor Amendment No. 2 makes the following change to the existing ITP, as amended: 1. This minor amendment will replace Figure 1 with a revised map to reflect the new fenced boundary at the southern portion of the Project site.

Region 4 Permits - The Project is a portion of Phase 5b, which is one component of a larger 248-acre and partially developed 1,050-unit residential subdivision: the master planned community of "Sea Haven." The larger subdivision was previously under management by Cypress Marina Heights, L.P. A separate ITP (No. 2081-2005-029-03) was issued under the project name "Marina Heights" and expired June 30, 2010. The previous developer demolished and removed remnant military buildings, completed horizontal improvements (e.g., vegetation removal, grading, cutting roads, installing utilities, and paving roads, sidewalks, and gutters), and vertical improvements (e.g., housing units, parks, landscaping, lighting, parking areas) on the majority of the larger residential subdivision. Since then, Permittee acquired the property in April of 2018 and has continued construction within other phases of the residential subdivision

Region 2 Permits - On June 8, 2018, Amador County Department of Transportation and Works submitted a CESA ITP application to CDFW pursuant to Fish and Game Code section 2081, subdivisions (b) and (c), and California Code of Regulations, Title 14, section 783.0 et seq. Amador County Department of Transportation and Works sought take coverage authorization for CESA listed species associated with project-related impacts from the Willow Creek Bridge on Carbondale Road Replacement Project in Amador County, California (Project). On July 21, 2020, CDFW issued ITP No. 2081-2018-073-02 to Amador County Department of Transportation and Works (Permittee) authorizing take of California tiger salamander (Ambystoma californiense) (Covered Species) associated with the Project. The Project as described in the ITP originally issued by CDFW includes the replacement of an existing bridge on Carbondale Road spanning Willow Creek with a new structure that will be approximately 30 feet wide and 80 feet in length. The bridge will consist of a cast-in-place, reinforced concrete slab supported on spread footings. In issuing the ITP, CDFW found, among other things, that Permittee's compliance with the Conditions of Approval of the ITP would fully mitigate impacts to the Covered Species and would not jeopardize the continued existence of the Covered Species.On March 19, 2024, Amador County Department of Transportation and Works submitted a request for a "minor amendment" to CESA ITP No. 2081-2018-073-02 (See Cal. Code Regs., § 783.6(c)(4)). The minor amendment modifies Condition of Approval 5.2 Designated Biologist to add in the option for a Biological Monitor during periods when the Covered Species is not expected to be present and modifies Condition of Approval 6.3 Compliance Monitoring to add in the option of a Biological Monitor during compliance monitoring.

Region 2 Permits - On July 21, 2020, CDFW issued ITP No. 2081-2018-073-02 The Project as described in the ITP as originally issued by CDFW includes the removal and replacement of an existing bridge on Carbondale Road spanning Willow Creek. The new structure will be approximately 30 feet wide and 80 feet long In a letter dated June 30, 2022, Permittee requested the ITP be extended from June 30, 2022, to June 30, 2025. Permittee stated that the project has not yet gone to construction pending release of local assistance federal funds. Therefore, the Permittee formally requested an extension of ITP to better align with the project schedule. This Minor Amendment No. 01 (Amendment) makes the following change to the existing ITP: This Amendment extends the expiration date from June 30, 2022, through June 30, 2025.

Region 3 Permits - On May 29, 2024, CDFW received a request from Permittee to amend the original ITP and on June 19, 2024 CDFW received the appropriate fees. Since issuance of the original ITP, design refinements have occurred that have changed the Project description and increased the Project footprint. Per the original ITP, the Pacific Pea Trail was to be constructed concurrently with creek restoration activities during the first phase of construction, which spanned from 2020 to 2023. None of the trail system expansion was completed during the initial construction phase. The Pacific Pea Trail was realigned to reduce impacts because of its original positioning on extremely steep hillslopes. The revised realignment follows the same general path as the original alignment, but features a revised tie-in point to the McCosker sub-area and a switchback to account for steep conditions. The construction details of the trail such as excavation depth, cut/fill balance, impacts to streams, construction methods, etc. remain the same; however, due to the switchback configuration, there will be an increase in the linear feet of constructed trail and an increase in the impact to Covered Species habitat and, therefore, potential take of the Covered Species. The updated alignment footprint will result in 0.12 additional acres of impacts to Covered Species habitat, 0.05 of which are temporary and 0.07 acres of permanent impact/habitat conversion from bay/oak woodland to trail. A conservation easement is being established for 6.84 acres off offsite in Covered Species-occupied habitat in the Ohlone Wilderness that protects high quality habitat in place of low-quality habitat and the Project has also created 0.5 acre of scrub habitat with rock outcrops for the Covered Species within the Project Area. The amendment updates the impacts of the Project based on the refined Project description and includes an additional map showing the Pacific Pea Trail realignment. It also allows for a Mitigation Funding Agreement instead of an endowment fund in Condition of Approval 9.

Region 3 Permits - In a letter dated July 3, 2024, the Permittee requested that the original ITP be amended to include an additional temporary construction laydown area within the existing Project Area and associated take coverage within this area for the Covered Species. The temporary laydown area, consisting of a graveled surface, will add approximately 2.44 acres to the Project's temporary impacts. No extra grading within the Project Area will be performed. All construction materials will be removed, and the laydown area will be restored to pre-construction condition once construction is complete. The letter also requested that minor changes be made to the description of the gen-tie. The Project has been designed to include the use of overhead structures for the gen-tie corridor between the BESS facility and the point-of-connection where the gen-tie will be undergrounded. However, because of overhead structure restrictions under existing towers, a portion of the previously described overhead gen-tie near Midway Road will now be undergrounded instead. The affected portion of the gen-tie will be approximately 60 feet wide and 1,700 feet long. This change will not result in any change to the Project footprint or habitat impacts.

Region 4 Permits - On May 10, 2022, CDFW received a request from the Permittee for a major amendment to the original ITP and received the corresponding fee payment on May 16, 2022. The request included modification of the water pipeline alignment to connect with the existing Santa Lucia Preserve Community Services District water system at a different location than originally proposed, as well as modifications to Conditions of Approval 6.6 and 7.20 to reflect the 0.4-acre increase in temporary impacts as a result of the revised water pipeline alignment. The request also included modifications to the requirements of Condition of Approval 7.4. CDFW finds that this Amendment is a Major Amendment, as defined in California Code of Regulations, title 14, section 783.6, subdivision (c)(5). Issuance of this Amendment will increase the amount of take of the Covered Species compared to the Project as originally approved; however, by implementing pre-activity clearance surveys, small mammal burrow excavation, daily compliance monitoring, and covering of all open excavations at the end of each workday within the driveway and water pipeline connection alignment, it is not expected that this Amendment will increase Project impacts on these species (i.e., "impacts of taking" as used in Fish and Game Code Section 2081, subd. (b)(2)). Issuance of this Amendment does not affect CDFW's previous determination that issuance of the ITP meets and is otherwise consistent with the permitting criteria set forth in Fish and Game Code section 2081, subdivisions (b) and (c).

Region 2 Permits - Since the issuance of the ITP, conditions have occurred to the Project site that have changed the Project description and potential impacts to state-listed species. DWR began construction of the Project in 2020. Due to the partial degrade of the existing levee on the Project site, water from the bypasses entered and inundated the Project site borrow pit areas. Modeling completed by DWR shows that the borrow pit areas will not completely drain without the use of pumps. To facilitate fish rescues within the inundated borrow pit areas and complete levee degrade for the Project, the site will need to be dewatered in 2024. Pumps will be placed in the Project borrow pit areas to draw water down to an appropriate level to conduct fish rescues. DWR has requested the ITP be amended to include dewatering activities and incidental take coverage for state-listed fish species that could occur in the Project area, including threatened spring-run Chinook salmon f the Sacramento River drainage and endangered winterrun Chinook salmon.

Region 5 Permits - The Foothill Feeder and the Jensen Plant are critical to Permittee's water treatment and distribution system. Periodic dewatering and inspections of the Foothill Feeder are necessary to ensure the continued safety and reliability of Permittee's system. Shutdown activities consist of preparation, dewatering, inspections, and refilling activities. The Project also includes grading of existing access roads and hand weed-abatement around structures at any of the 19 stations as needed along the pipeline. After completing the grading of existing roads, the Project involves placing aggregate base (e.g., crushed rock used for road base or road surfacing) as needed to create an all-weather driving surface. This activity requires the use of a single front-end loader, a single grader, a truck to deliver the grader and loader, a water truck for dust suppression, and a truck to deliver aggregate at each of the 18 stations. These activities require two workers at all substructure locations along the feeder over a 2- week period in the month leading to the shutdown of the Foothill Feeder. Additionally, the Project requires approximately four two-way truck trips on a daily basis at each of the work site locations to support these activities.

Region 4 Permits - This Major Amendment No. 16 (Amendment) makes the following changes to the ITP, as amended: 1) This Amendment increases the size of the entire Project Construction Footprint by 82.60 acres, creating a total of 2,339.93 acres of cumulative impact disturbance. The increase in the Construction Footprint acreage is necessary to accommodate utility relocations and access road work. 2) This Amendment removes Table 7 and the utility modification work added in Amendment 3. 3) This Amendment updates Table 3 by adding the utility work described in Table 7 (17 locations in Madera County and 6 locations in Fresno County) and removes all acres impacted because those are not available from Table 7 and adds 11 locations in Madera County and 24 locations in Fresno County. 4) This Amendment adds “subsurface soil investigations/exploration” (e.g. potholing) to the list of Covered Activities. 5) This Amendment increases the direct impacts for California tiger salamander (CTS) breeding (aquatic) habitat by 0.63 acre; increases the impacts to potential CTS upland habitat by 49.94 acres, and increases both San Joaquin kit fox and Swainson’s hawk upland habitat impacts by 52.81 acres. Swainson’s hawk upland habitat is also increased by an additional 306.10 acres due to an increase in the number of known Swainson’s hawk nests within half a mile of the Construction Footprint and therefore the amount of foraging habitat within the 10-mile buffer distance. In addition, Table 5 is updated accordingly. 6) This Amendment adds Table 5A to include all the known Swainson’s hawk nest trees up through the 2022 nesting season. 7) This Amendment adds Table 5B listing all active Swainson’s hawk nest trees within the Construction Footprint that may need to be removed.

Region 3 Permits - The Project includes installation and removal of a BAFF and annual operations of the fence. The BAFF will seasonally operate from early 2023 through 2030 at the Georgiana Slough junction. The purpose of the GSSMB is to reduce impacts of the State Water Project (SWP) and the Central Valley Project (CVP) operations by operating as a behavioral deterrent to prevent Sacramento River juvenile salmonids from entering Georgiana Slough during emigration and, thereafter, the central and south Delta, where they have a lower chance of survival compared to remaining in the mainstem Sacramento River. Specific operations of the BAFF will be developed in coordination with CDFW, National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). Operations of the BAFF could occur in the fall, if flexibility is required for high flow years as special-status species fish enter the Sacramento River. The BAFF will cease operations in April or May and be removed by July, consistent with Attachment 1(Georgiana Slough Salmonid Migratory Barrier Operations Plan, May 2022).

Region 2 Permits - On March 22, 2022, DWR submitted a request for a “major amendment” to CESA ITP No. 2081-2019-063-02-A1 (See Cal. Code Regs., § 783.6(c)(5)). Since the issuance of the original ITP, design refinements have occurred that changed the Project description and slightly expanded the Project footprint. Most of the impacts associated with the design refinements that were addressed in Amendment No.1; however, a small amount of the impacts associated with these changes were inadvertently excluded from the first amendment. This second amendment accounts for the excluded impacts. Additionally, the project implementation schedule has been refined extending the project construction period by one year affecting the timeframe for compliance with ITP conditions of approval. This amendment updates the direct impacts of the Project based on the refined Project description, Project footprint, and assessment of Covered Species habitat impacts provided for the first amendment and revises the implementation schedule for conditions of approval. CDFW now reissues this ITP including the revised provisions in this second major amendment (Collectively, the Amended ITP). The Amended ITP includes all of the operative provisions as of the effective date of this Amended ITP. Attachment 6 to this Amended ITP shows the specific red-line changes made to the ITP as a result of this major amendment.

Region 4 Permits - On January 24, 2023, CDFW received a request from the Permittee for a minor amendment to the ITP and the corresponding fee payment on January 27, 2023. The request included updating the Permittee’s Contact Person and extending the expiration date of the ITP from January 31, 2023 to July 31, 2023. The Project has been delayed because Gas Control Outage Coordination (GCOC) has not allowed for the Project to proceed as there was a chance it could impact customers during months with high demand. The Permittee was able to install magnesium anodes to temporarily address the out of read tolerances while awaiting approval from GCOC to begin construction for the Project. GCOC has since provided new dates for construction with work at the L225 site expected to start construction in early April and end in mid-May 2023 and at the L85 site expected to start construction in early June and end in mid-July 2023. This Minor Amendment No. 1 (Amendment No. 1) makes the following changes to the existing ITP: First, Amendment No. 1 updates the Permittee’s s Contact Person on the ITP. Second, Amendment No. 1 extends the expiration date for the ITP from January 31, 2023 to July 31, 2023.

Region 6 Permits - In a letter dated October 21, 2022, Permittee requested an amendment to its ITP for minor changes that were made following issuance of the ITP, including decreases in the distance to daylight lines and subsequent reductions in the limits of grading, reductions in impacts to avoid easements, and minor essential design modifications. Reductions in the distance to daylight lines were made to decrease project impacts to sensitive biological resources within all of Phase 1. Additional requested changes to project impact limits included the removal of the temporary water storage pond in the southern portion of the Project area. The Permittee requested the water booster station, located in the southeastern part of the Project area and analyzed during the California Environmental Quality Act review but not included in the initial ITP application, be added to the Project design. The booster station would include an extension of Silverwood Trail Road (approximately 1,000 linear feet) to allow access to the site. A single temporary brow ditch would be added to convey flows across the site construction and into a stormwater basin. The temporary water storage pond for recycled water would no longer be needed as part of the Project and the Permittee requested to remove it. This Major Amendment updates the direct impacts of the Project based on the modified Project Description and Project Area, and an updated assessment of Covered Species habitat impacts. The changes in acreage of each Project Component are listed in Table 1 and Table 2 below.

In order to realign the highway to current design standards, the nonstandard curve will be replaced with a 2,000 1,440-foot radius curve. This will require cutting into the hillside; approximately 41,000 69,000 cubic yards of material would be excavated at a maximum depth of approximately 44 52 feet. The new section of SR 25 would be 900 feet long and 40 feet wide. The Project would result in two 12-foot lanes with 2 4-foot paved shoulders and 6 to 8 feet of unpaved surface on either side, including a rock catchment area. The slopes on either side would be 0.25:1 2:1 or flatter with a 1:1 slope near the top to round off where the cut joins the remaining hill slope. The width of these slopes will be a maximum of 16 feet on each side. The maximum width of the entire cut is 76 240 feet with an additional 10 feet of new proposed ROW along the outer edge. Approximately 2.9 4.4 acres of land, currently used for cattle grazing, would need to be acquired as additional ROW to accommodate the improved roadway alignment and the wider roadbed.

Permittee will reconnect the adjacent marsh and subtidal channels in Boynton, Peytonia, and Suisun sloughs to the newly restored tidal and subtidal marsh within the Project site. Additionally, the greater tidal flows will result in increased availability of wetland-derived primary and secondary production to the surrounding areas. The Project is intended to help fulfill a portion of the 8,000-acre tidal habitat restoration obligations of the Department of Water Resources (DWR) contained within Reasonable and Prudent Alternative (RPA) of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Delta Smelt Biological Opinion (BiOp) for long-term coordinated operations of the State Water Project (SWP) and the federal Central Valley Project (CVP). Because restoration of tidal habitat will provide access for salmonid rearing at Wings Landing, the Project will also be consistent with RPA I.6.1 of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Salmonid BiOp for SWP/CVP operations. The Project will contribute to the 800 acres of Longfin Smelt wetland habitat mitigation requirement in the 2009 California State Water Project Delta Facilities and Operations ITP (2081-2009-001-03). Additionally, the Project will contribute to meeting the purpose and objectives of the Suisun Marsh Habitat Management, Preservation, and Restoration Plan (SMP). The SMP provides a comprehensive 30-year plan for activities within the Suisun Marsh, including tidal restoration activities, and managed wetland management. Upon completion of the Project, the Project will be transferred to DWR to meet the BiOp and ITP mitigation obligations.

Region 3 Permits - California Department of Water Resources (DWR) proposes to place five self-cleaning, retractable fish screens at the waterside termini of five existing DWR-owned intake siphons located on Sherman Island and Twitchell Island in order to reduce potential entrainment of Delta Smelt and other fish species by agricultural diversions on state-owned lands. Each installation will require modification of the existing intake siphon to accommodate attachment of the self-cleaning fish screen, construction of a structural steel access walkway, generator-powered winch retrieval track, and additional steel piles to support the structure. In general, each site will utilize piles as the foundation for supporting the framework for a self-cleaning, retrievable fish screen system. Each system will consist of a cylindrical drum-shaped screen with internal and external brushes that will clean the screens. The brushes will be powered by a propeller drive system that rotates the brushes whenever water flows through the screen. The screens are retrievable through a track and winch system, which will be powered by a portable generator. Retrieval will allow for screen maintenance and will also serve to dry out the screens in a desiccation process focused on preventing the attachment and spread of invasive mussels. The control structure will be accessible via a walkway supported by concrete footings at the edge of the levee road. The descriptions below address the standard construction plans for the sites. Due to the variable conditions at each site, some modifications to the general design will need to be made to accommodate specific circumstances. Modifications to the standard design and construction will be discussed below.

Region 4 Permits - The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) issued to the California Department of Transportation (Permittee) incidental take permit number 2081-2011-064-04 and later amended it four times (original ITP). After the fourth amendment, Permittee completed the project described below. The original ITP expired in December 2016; however, Permittee has not fulfilled its mitigation obligation from the original ITP. The Permittee and CDFW agreed that Permittee may fulfill its mitigation obligation through the purchase of conservation bank credits, an option that is not in the original ITP. As a result, CDFW is reissuing the original ITP as this ITP number 2081-2018-029-04. This ITP does not authorize an increase in the take or impacts that CDFW contemplated when issuing the original ITP, or otherwise change the original ITP's take authorization. Instead, this ITP provides Permittee with another option for fulfilling its mitigation obligation under the original ITP through the option to purchase conservation bank credits. Additionally, this ITP increases Permittee's mitigation obligation as compared to the original ITP to account for the temporal losses associated with the delayed mitigation. Deletions to the original ITP are shown in double strikeout, while additions are shown in bold italics. Revisions to the original ITP related to CDFW's name change from Fish and Game to Fish and Wildlife are not reflected in this ITP. In summary, this ITP reflects the following revisions to the original ITP: (1) an additional option to meet the mitigation obligation as required under the original ITP through the purchase of conservation bank credits; (2) an extension of the · expiration date and time to meet the compensatory mitigation obligation; (3) the requirement for supplementary compensatory mitigation to offset the temporal impacts caused by the delay in meeting the mitigation obligation under the original ITP; (4) corrected cross reference; (5) updated cost estimates; and (6) updated contact information.

Region 1 Permits - The Project entails installation and removal of two temporary summer Bailey bridges on the South Fork Eel River. The crossing in Humboldt County is for accessing a portion of Richardson Grove State Park and the crossing in Mendocino County is for accessing a portion of Standish-Hickey State Recreation Area. The Bailey bridge is a U.S. military-style panel bridge that assembles by extending from one abutment to reach the other abutment. The flexible bridge design allows the river to be spanned without moving any material into the summer low flow channel. Bridge lengths are adjustable and can vary according to river configuration from year to year to match the dynamic river bar. Bridge abutments and approach ramps would be constructed first. Depending on site location (see individual park descriptions below), and requirements of other permits, bridge abutments consist of gravel filled concrete pipes or large boulders backfilled with river gravel. In order for the far side bridge abutments and approach ramps to be developed, the heavy equipment must ford the river to accomplish the work.

Region 3 Permits - The Project includes removal of the existing 2.0-million gallon tank and construction of a 3.41-million gallon, 40-foot-high (roof height), 155-foot-diameter welded steel replacement reservoir on substantially the same footprint as the existing tank. The new tank will have a wider diameter than the existing tank and will extend into the area currently used for the paved circular access road surrounding the existing tank, which will require a new 15-foot-wide paved access road to be constructed surrounding the new tank. This new asphalt road around the tank is part of the Project, along with landscaping, electrical and instrumentation upgrades, and piping improvements. The existing perimeter chain-link fencing will remain. The majority of the work will occur inside the perimeter fence line, where the tank currently sits. In addition, the Project includes removal and replacement of the conduit using trenching. The new conduit will be routed in the shoulder of the access road for the entire length of the access road and will not disturb the undeveloped area surrounding the site. The existing tank will be dismantled and disposed of off-site. Site drainage from within the new paved areas will be collected and treated in four new bio-retention ponds before leaving the site through the existing overflow/drain pipe that discharges at the bottom of the hill. Site drainage outside of the new paved areas will remain similar to the existing drainage. Minor grading work will be required to accommodate the wider footprint of the tank and paved areas. Geotechnical improvements underneath the base of the tank to depths of approximately 4 feet will be required to support the tank. A number of large eucalyptus trees will be removed to construct the Project and new native trees will be planted to visually screen the new reservoir.

Region 1 Permits - The Project includes vehicle and heavy equipment use within the riparian corridor and bank full channel of the Mad, Van Duzen, Lower Eel, and Trinity rivers, excavation of aggregate from exposed bar surfaces and/or excavation of aggregate from deposits adjacent to the low-flow summer stream channel, isolated water bodies, and secondary channels. Access to extraction sites requires the construction of haul roads, and current permits allow placement and removal of up to six temporary crossings. Currently, the applicant only proposes to install bridges in up to three locations at the Sandy Prairie Bar. No bridges are currently proposed at Willow Creek, Dinsmore, McKnight, or Essex gravel bars, but a bridge has been used at the Willow Creek site in prior years and bridges may be proposed at the Willow Creek or Dinsmore sites if needed. Excavation may also occur on high floodplain areas and in areas adjacent to riparian vegetation. The annual work period occurs between June 1 and October 15, with the exception of temporary crossings, which are restricted to the work period of June 30-0ctober 15. Pre-extraction monitoring and planning activities begin as early as April 1 and may extend through July. Post-extraction monitoring and habitat surveys may extend through the month of November. Pre-extraction planning activities may involve travel to survey areas by passenger vehicle on existing haul roads and across exposed gravel bars of the Project site. Equipment used for excavation activities may include rubber-tired loaders, tracked bulldozers, belly scrapers, tracked excavators, large off-road haul trucks, belly-dumps, dump trucks, personal vehicles, and quad-runners.
