EAGAL LAKE RECREATION & RESTORATION PROJECT BACKGROUND AND PROJFCT DESCRIPITON The proposed project is a modified version of a Use Permit Pre-Application submitted to the County of San Joaquin in 1993 (UP-93-14). The revised project is a result of comments received in 1993194 and the acquisition of an adjoining parcel. The revised project now consist of two (2)parcels of land that were recently approved through a County Lot Line Adjustment (LA-98-23). The proposed project has been revised to provide for two specific uses, a private ski club and new lake are proposed to be constructed on Parcel I along with creating additional riparian habitat and hiking trails adjacent to the ski lake, which will help to provide the required income to maintain the facilities of both Parcels 1 and 2. The existing lake and surrounding area on Parcel 1 is essentially proposed to remain unchanged with the exception of enhancing the existing hiking trails, look-out points, constructing picnic areas and the enhancement of plant and animal communities that were proposed in UP-93-14. Parcel 2 has historically been used for agricultural crops, but has been fallow for the past couple of years. Parcel 2 is proposed to have a newly constructed lake for the use of a private ski water ski club, construction of riparian habitat around the lake, construction of picnic areas and hiking trails. Parcel I consists of riparian habitat, an existing lake (approx.13 Ac) and undulating topography consisting of various plant and animal communities. The soils are composed of alluvial sands and silty clays typical for this area along the San Joaquin River.
