Document Description
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has executed Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement number 1600-2017-0212-R5, pursuant to section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to the project Applicant, Hubertus Cox of the Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation. The project will retrofit or modify three water treatment facilities within the Ballona Creek watershed to capture and treat water in order to reduce the bacterial load and improve water quality. At Area 1 the project will construct two 39-inch wide saw cut collection channels to collect and treat 29 million gallons per day (MGD) of dry weather, of this 6 MGD will be released back into Ballona Creek. At Area 2 the project will construct a single 39-inch wide saw-cut
diversion channel to divert 1.3 MGD of dry weather flow, all of which will be sanitized and released back into the Sepulveda channel. At Area 3 the project will construct an 8-inch PVC diversion pipe with a grate inlet and a 3-inch diversion berm to divert up to 0.96 MGD for treatment and discharge or beneficial use.
