Wallace Weir Fish Rescue Facility Project (California Endangered Species Act Incidental Take Permit No. 2081-2016-024-02 (ITP))

Wallace Weir Fish Rescue Facility Project (California Endangered Species Act Incidental Take Permit No. 2081-2016-024-02 (ITP))

As approved by RD 108, the Project involves the construction of a permanent weir with a positive fish barrier and fish capture facility downstream of the existing Wallace Weir structure in the Knights Landing Ridge Cut (KLRC). The Project will also involve removal of the existing Wallace Weir, which is a seasonally-constructed, earthen berm that crosses the KLRC. The Project site is within the range of the Covered Species and is known to support individuals of the species. Project will impact to 12.66 acres of Sacramento River winter-run Chinook Salmon, Central Valley spring-run Chinook salmon, and giant garter snake habitat including temporary impacts to 10.08 acres; the Project will permanently remove 3.04 acres of Sacramento River winter-run Chinook salmon, Central Valley spring-run Chinook salmon, and giant garter snake habitat. Project is expected to result in incidental take of Sacramento River winter-run Chinook salmon, which is designated as endangered under the CESA, and Central Valley spring-run Chinook salmon and giant garter snake, both designated as threatened species under CESA. The ITP referenced above as issued by CDFW authorizes incidental take of species listed under CESA that may occur as a result of Project implementation.
