<br /> <br />Soil Investigations for Data Collection in the Delta <br />Initial Study/Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration 210 <br />Department of Water Resources- 2017 Storm Damage DWR Rehabilitation (SDDR) - <br />Phases 4 and 5 Repair Sites <br />The proposed project would address non-emergency levee erosion repair sites (Phases <br />4 and 5) identified for repair in 2019 and 2020. This work is a follow on to the 2017 <br />Storm Damage DWR Emergency Rehabilitation Program that rehabilitated emergency <br />levee erosion repair sites (Phases 1 through 3) in 2017 and 2018. <br /> <br />The proposed project includes a total of 30 repair sites located in Yolo, Sutter, Tehama, <br />Butte, Colusa, Glenn, San Joaquin, and Sacramento counties. Some of the SDDR <br />projects are located outside of the proposed Study Area but it is possible that some <br />work will occur along the Sacramento River and tributaries and within Sacramento and <br />San Joaquin counties. The proposed project would repair and rehabilitate levees at the <br />30 locations using a variety of construction equipment, requiring different design <br />considerations based on levee conditions. Construction activities would take place at <br />each site throughout the summer/fall of 2019 or 2020. Each levee repair would require <br />approximately 2 to 4 weeks of active construction and at least three sites would be <br />repaired concurrently, with up to nine sites being repaired at the same time, based on <br />limitations of hauling, air quality permitting, and other potential permit restrictions by <br />responsible agencies. <br /> <br />The IS/MND for this project was filed on April 24, 2019. A NOD was filed on August 19, <br />2019. <br /> <br />Department of Water Resources- Sherman and Twitchell Islands Fish Screen Project <br />DWR proposes to place five self-cleaning, retractable fish screen at the waterslide <br />termini of five DWR-owned intake siphons located on Sherman Island and Twitchell <br />Island in order to reduce potential entrainment of Delta Smelt and other fish species by <br />agricultural diversions on state-owned lands. Each installation will require modification <br />of the existing intake siphon to accommodate attachment of the self-cleaning fish <br />screen, construction of a structural steel access walkway, generator-powered winch <br />retrieval track, and additional steel piles to support the structure. This project is located <br />south of Rio Vista along Highway 160 on Sherman and Twitchell Islands in Sacramento <br />County. <br /> <br />The IS/MND for this project was filed on March 3, 2016. A NOD was filed on April 15, <br />2016. <br /> <br /> <br />Department of Water Resources- Long-Term Operations of the State Water Project <br />(SWP) <br />Under the proposed project, the SWP would continue to be operated to provide flood <br />control and water supply for agricultural, municipal, industrial, recreational, and <br />environmental purposes consistent with applicable legal requirements. SWP operations <br />also would continue to be closely coordinated with the federal Central Valley Project <br />(CVP), including the Coordinated Operating Agreements (COAs) with the US Bureau of <br />Reclamation, and operational requirements from the ongoing re-initiation of Endangered
