Title

Angora Creek SEZ Restoration Project (JN 95147)

Description

The intent of this project is to modify and improve Angora Creek in the vicinity of the culverts under Lake Tahoe Boulevard to improve fish passage. These improvements will adjust channel morphology where the creek has become entrenched, stabilize banks with vegetation, and improve passage at two existing culverts by installing a 3 sided bridge structure. Anticipated construction activities include channel reconstruction, bioengineering bank stabilization, riffle pool sequences, reestablishment or creation of fish and wildlife habitat, construction of a 3 sided concrete bridge, removal of debris, removal and restoration of temporary access roads, finish grading, salvaging of existing native vegetation, planting of shrubs and sod, willow stakes, seeding and mulching and construction site temporary BMPs. The Project will be constructed in the late summer when flows are the lowest in order to minimize impacts to the area and to fish and wildlife species. However, it is anticipated that the creek will still require diversion and certain areas may require dewatering to construct the Project.
