Document Description
The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), using state funds only, is proposing to add a decanting site to an existing Caltrans roadside pullout on State Route (SR) 299 at post mile (PM) 3.10 in Shasta County, California. The proposed work would entail digging a decanting site, approximately 40 feet long by 16 feet wide and 2 feet deep with a sloped entrance. A decanting site is used to deposit water and mud routinely collected when cleaning out culverts along state highways. A decanting site is a similar/compatible use to the current operations of the site.
