Document Description
Improve the existing Upper Lake Clementine parking lot within Auburn State Recreation Area. The existing parking lot is an unpaved graded river cobble area approximately 500 feet by 150 feet in size delineated by large boulders around the perimeter. The improvements include extending the parking lot approximately 200 feet westward by grading and placing large boulders around the perimeter of the expanded area. Several clumps of small willows will need to be removed as part of this parking area expansion. None of the willow stems exceeds 4 inches in diameter. Emergency vehicle access points will be added to the parking area by creating openings in the boulders around the perimeter of the lot and installing removable steel bollards or pole gates at these openings. Ten regulatory and informational signs will be installed around the parking area. Sign posts and gate posts or bollards will be installed with concrete anchors approximately 3 feet deep. All work will be conducted during dry weather. The site is above the ordinary high water mark of Lake Clementine, therefore no Army Corps of engineers 404 permit is required. A Department of Fish and Game Streambed Alteration Agreement will be obtained.
