Title

Edinger Avenue Bridge Deck Improvement Project

Description

The California Department of Fish and Game is issuing an Agreement Regarding Proposed Stream or Lake Alteration (SAA 1600-2006-0353-R5) to the project applicant, County of Orange, Resources and Development Management Department (P.O.C. Ms. Hualin Hsu-Wingard). The Operator proposes to alter the streambed and banks of Bolsa Chica Channel by replacing and repairing heavily deteriorated 10 piles of Bent No. 15 of the Edinger Bridge. The bridge is approximately 30 feet wide and 300 feet long, with a single travel lane in each direction. The County will replace the deteriorated portions of those piles determined to be heavily deteriorated by employing a "posting" method, which includes splicing new section of wood into the pile in the area of deterioration. The Operator shall not temporarily impact more than 0.046 acre of jurisdictional Channel consisting of rip-rap and no vegetation exist on site. All disturbed portions of the streambed or banks shall be restored to the pre-existing condition or better. Work with mechanical/heavy equipment in flowing water should be minimized. If flowing water is present or is anticipated, sandbags or other suitable barriers should be placed in the watercourse to isolate the work area from the flowing water. All material utilized for the barrier shall be removed from the floodplain of the watercourse upon project completion.
