Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has executed Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement Number 1600-2015-0425-R1, pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to Tehama County Public Works.
The project is limited to the replacement of the existing Reeds Creek Road Bridge over Pine Creek with a new bridge in the same location.
The new two-lane bridge will be approximately 90-feet long by 40-feet wide, and will be supported by two piers within the streambed. Each pier will be supported by four piles, each 15-inch by 15-inch and driven into the substrata to refusal. The abutment footings will be a minimum of 1-foot below the existing stream channel. Abutments and piers will be armored with rock slope protection to prevent scour.
Replacing the structure in place will require a temporary in-stream detour while the bridge is under construction. A 20-foot wide detour, allowing two lanes, will be located upstream of the existing structure. The fill used for the detour will be clean gravel; no cut of the stream banks will occur. Three 24-inch culverts will be installed within the temporary detour, work within the bed and bank of Pine Creek is expected to occur between June 15 and October 15.

Reasons for Exemption
As a result of studies performed during the NEPA process no endangered species have been identified to be affected by this project and the project does not involve the filling of wetlands. The bridge will be replaced in place with a wider structure; however, there is no expansion of capacity.
