Document Description
The proposed project consists of the preparation of engineering and design plans, and the acquisition of federal, state and local permits to reconstruct a portion of the parking lot at Putah Creek Fishing Access Site #3 (PCFA #3). During the severe winter storms in February 2019, a portion of the parking lot on the west side of PCF A #3 collapsed, causing the site to close to the public. The damage was caused by high velocity sheet flow and subsurface erosion due to clogged culverts and drainage runoffs from the property across State Highway 128 to the north of PCFA #3 . Preparation of engineering-and design plans, and obtaining the necessary permits will enable the Parks Division to apply for future grant funding opportunities to reconstruct the parking lot and reopen the sile to the public. No development or alteration of land is proposed as part of this project. Prior to approval of the project set forth in the engineering and design plans, the County will perform all required environmental review.
