CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2024, VOLUME NUMBER 12–Z 329 GENERAL PUBLIC INTEREST DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE HABITAT RESTORATION AND ENHANCEMENT ACT CONSISTENCY DETERMINATION NUMBER 1653–2024–132–001–R1 Project: Patterson Creek Engineered Log Jam Project Location: Siskiyou County Applicant: Scott River Watershed Council Background Project Location: The Patterson Creek Engineered Log Jam Project (Project) at is located on Patterson Creek approximately 0.5 miles above Patterson Creek Highway 3 Bridge, between the cities of Etna and Ft.

Jones, California, at a property owned by Ecotrust Forest Management (EFM). Patterson Creek is part of the Scott River watershed and supports populations of Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch). Project Description: Scott River W atershed Coun- cil (Applicant) proposes to enhance or restore habitat within Patterson Creek to provide a net conservation benefit for Coho Salmon. The Project’s purpose is to improve Coho Salmon’s winter, spring, and fall rear - ing habitat.

The Project will do this by installing 16 large wood structures in the creek which will cre - ate cover, scour pools, and increase the frequency of floodplain inundation. The project will also include planting riparian plants that will provide shade, cover, and primary food production.

The wood structures will include the following: ● 12 Single log structures ● Three double log structures ● One apex jam Single log structures The twelve single logs that will be installed will have root wads measuring approximately 35–40 feet in length and 18– 24 inches in diameter, will be placed into an excavated trench in the streambank with the instream portion of the log’s bole and root wad placed at the existing stream bed elevation. The excavated trench will be a maximum of ten feet deep, a maxi - mum width of nine feet, and a maximum length of 40 feet.

The overall excavation disturbance area will be 360 square feet for each of the single log structures. A log will be placed on the bottom of the excavated trench with the root wad at the existing streambed el - evation. Four imported ballast boulders will be placed on top of each of the 12 logs and the trench will be backfilled with the native material from excavation to counteract buoyancy. A total of 48 ballast boulders will be used for this project element. Approximately 40 willow and cottonwood cuttings will be placed in each excavated trench before backfilling, for a total of 480 cuttings.

Five wood piles, measuring 12 feet in length and eight–to–twelve inches in diameter, will be driven into the streambed and bank around each installed log within the excavation footprint to prevent rotational movement. Double log wood structures The three double–log wood structures that will be installed will be comprised of two logs with root wads, each measuring approximately 35–40 feet in length and 18–24 inches in diameter. The double–log wood structure installation process is the same as that for the single logs but requires additional material and a larger disturbance footprint.

Trenches for dou - ble–log placement will be excavated to a maximum depth of ten feet and the trench disturbance area for each double–log wood structure will be a maximum of 600 square feet. Each of the three double–log wood structures will have eight ballast boulders placed on top of it. A total of 24 ballast boulders will be used for this project element. Approximately 80 willow and cottonwood cuttings will be placed in each excavated trench before backfilling, for a total of 240 cuttings.

Ten wood piles will be driven into the streambed and stream bank around each installed log structure to prevent rotational movement. Apex Jam The Apex jam that will be installed will be con - structed in layers and will consist of seven logs with root wads measuring 35–40 feet in length and 18–24 inches in diameter and one cross log measuring 20 feet in length and 12–18 inches in diameter and will be installed in an excavated trench. The excavated trench will have a maximum depth of ten feet.

Eighteen bal - last boulders will be placed on the installed wood and native excavated material will be used to fill the in - terstitial spaces and backfill the trench to counteract bouncy. Approximately 160 native willow and cotton- wood cuttings will be installed in the excavated trench around the log structure before backfilling. Ten wood piles would be driven into the ground around the in - stalled logs to prevent rotational movement. A scour hole will be excavated directly upstream of the Apex Jam structure to a maximum depth of four feet below the existing streambed elevation.

The final location of the Apex Jam will be identified in the field. All wood structures will be installed with exca - vators, a dump truck, and a pickup truck and trailer. Excavators will operate within the riparian corridor, floodplain, and stream channel to excavate and back - fill trenches, move logs and ballast boulders from the

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2024, VOLUME NUMBER 12–Z 330 staging area to structure locations, and drive wood piles. The Project will adhere to all information pro - vided in the Notice of Intent (NOI) package, including the construction drawings, invasive species protocol, best management practices, and all information de - tailed in the final project description. Project Size: The total area of the Project is approxi- mately 3.2 acres, of which 2.0 acres and 500 linear feet will be temporary impacts to aquatic features.

The Applicant has included project size calculations that were used to determine the total size of the Project. The proposed Project complies with the General 401 Certification for Small Habitat Restoration Projects and associated categorical exemption from the Cali - fornia Environmental Quality Act (Cal. Code Regs., title 14, § 15333). Project Associated Discharge: Discharge of ma - terials into Waters of the State, as defined by Water Code

SECTION 1653 CONSISTENCY DETERMINATION REQUEST FOR LEEK SPRINGS MEADOW RESTORATION PROJECT (TRACKING NUMBER: 1653–2024–133–001–R2) EL DORADO COUNTY California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) received a Request to Approve on 3/11/2024, that the American River Conservancy (Conservancy) propos - es to carry out a habitat restoration or enhancement project pursuant to Fish and Game Code

section 1653. The proposed project involves building around 100 beaver dam analogues and post–assisted log structures in Leek Springs Meadow. The proposed project will be carried out in Leek Springs Valley, located north of highway 88 and south of the Mormon Emigrant Trail, El Dorado County, California.

On 12/21/2023, the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Water Board) re - ceived a Notice of Intent (NOI) to comply with the terms of, and obtain coverage under, the General 401 Water Quality Certification Order for Small Habi - tat Restoration Projects (General 401 Order) for the Leek Springs Meadow Restoration Project.

The Re - gional Water Board determined that the Project, as described in the NOI, was categorically exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review (section 15333 — Small Habitat Restoration Projects) and met the eligibility requirements for coverage un - der the General 401 Order. The Regional Water Board issued a Notice of Applicability (WDID Number 5A09CR00238) for coverage under the General 401 Order on 1/24/2024. The Conservancy is requesting a determination that the project and associated documents are complete pursuant to Fish and Game Code

section 1653 subdi - vision (d). If CDFW determines the project is com - plete, the Conservancy will not be required to obtain an incidental take permit under Fish and Game Code

section 2081 subdivision (

b) or a Lake or Streambed Alteration Agreement under Fish and Game Code sec- tion 1605 for the proposed project. In accordance with Fish and Game Code

section 1653 subdivision (e), if CDFW determines during the review, based on substantial evidence, that the request is not complete, the Conservancy will have the oppor- tunity to submit under Fish and Game Code

section 1652.

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2024, VOLUME NUMBER 12–Z 332 DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE HABITAT RESTORATION AND ENHANCEMENT ACT CONSISTENCY DETERMINATION NUMBER 1653–2024–131–001–R1 Project: Sisson Meadows Wetland and Pollinator Restoration Project Location: Siskiyou County Applicant: David Johnson (U.S.

Fish and Wildlife Service) Background Project Location: The Sisson Meadows Wetland and Pollinator Restoration Project (Project) is located be - tween East Alma Street and East Castle Street, in the city of Mount Shasta, California, 96067, at a property owned by The Siskiyou Land Trust, Assessor Parcel Number (APN) 057–331–020 and 057–331–040, and affects an unnamed tributary to Sisson Meadows. Project Description: David Johnson of U.S. Fish and Wildlife (Applicant) proposes to enhance or re - store habitat within Sisson Meadows to provide a net conservation benefit to wet meadow habitat.

The un - named tributary that flows through Sisson meadows is currently experiencing several head cuts and incision points in several areas of the stream. The goal of the Project is to restore the hydrology of the wet meadow by reversing incision and raising the water table in the meadow. The project proposes to construct 36–38 wil- low weave structures, spaced approximately 20 feet apart, throughout 750 feet of the creek.

The willow structures will be built using on–site willow cuttings (approximately 0.75” to 1.5” in diameter) pushed verti- cally into the creek channel by hand and then weaving smaller diameter willow cuttings and wetland grasses through the vertical willow cuttings. The structures will be approximately one to two feet in height, two feet in length, and approximately three inches in width. The willow structures will be built during low flow periods, or when the creek is dry but the soil in the channel is moist, so that the cuttings can be easily pushed by hand into the creek channel.

Willow cut - tings will be harvested from around the seasonal wet - land and the upstream (northern)

section of the creek. Cuttings will be spread out so as not to significantly impact the function of the willow habitats. As such, up to 0.5 acre of willow habitat may be impacted. The project will also enhance pollinator habitat available in the meadow by planting four monarch waystations with native plants to provide nectar and host plants for a variety of native pollinators includ - ing the monarch butterfly ( Danaus plexippus).

These monarch waystations will be strategically placed to maximize educational opportunities for visitors while also limiting the use of unauthorized (social–use) trails and discouraging visitors from leaving the boardwalk and damaging sensitive habitats. Project Size: The total size of ground disturbance associated with the Project is approximately 0.5 acres and 76 linear feet of streambed. The Applicant has included project size calculations that were used to determine the total size of the Project.

The proposed Project complies with the General 401 Certification for Small Habitat Restoration Projects and associated categorical exemption from the California Environ - mental Quality Act (Cal. Code Regs., title 14, § 15333). Project Associated Discharge: Discharge of ma - terials into Waters of the State, as defined by Water Code

section 13050 subdivision (e), resulting from the Project include those associated with the following: (1) willow woody material and (2) wetland grass material. Project Timeframes: Work Schedule: April 1 to June 30, 2024 or September 1 to October 15, 2024 (start and end dates are based on streamflow conditions). Antic- ipated days to complete: 4.

Water Quality Certification Background : Because the Project’s primary purpose is habitat restoration intended to improve the quality of waters in Califor - nia and improve the hydrology of wet meadow habitat, the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Water Board) issued a Notice of Ap- plicability (NOA) for Coverage under the State Water Resources Control Board General 401 Water Quality Certification Order for Small Habitat Restoration Proj- ects SB12006GN (Order) (Waste Discharge Identifica- tion (WDID) Number 5A47CR00063 for the Project.

The NOA describes the Project and requires the Ap - plicant to comply with terms of the Order. Receiving Water: Sisson Meadow. Filled or Excavated Area : Permanent area impact - ed: 0.0004 acres of streambed Up to 0.5 acres of willow harvest area Length permanently impacted: 76 linear feet of streambed Dredge Volume: None. Discharge Volume: 5.5 cubic yards (cy) small woody material of willow cuttings and 1 (cy) of wetland grass material.

Project Location : Latitude 41.316553 Northy and Longitude –122.309597 West, (NAD 83); APN: 057– 331–020 and 057–331–040 Regional Water Board staff determined that the Project may proceed under the Order. Additionally, Regional Water Board staff determined that the Proj - ect, as described in the Notice of Intent (NOI) com - plies with the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code, § 21000 et seq.).
