Plumas-Sierra Rural Electric Cooperative (PSREC),
Portola, California
At the request of PSREC, H&C, Inc.
conducted an investigation of the geographic extent of possible wetland areas or
other types of waters of the United States subject to U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (Corps) regulation under the Clean Water Act that could be located
within the approximately four-mile corridor of the project area. A
jurisdictional delineation report was prepared by Huffman & Carpenter, Inc.,
submitted to and verified by the Corps. The underground electrical circuit
project crossed two large meadow wetland habitats and six intermittent/ephemeral
channels. Huffman & Carpenter,
Inc. prepared and obtained the necessary Corps permit and California Regional
Water Quality Control Board water quality certification to allow for these
temporary impacts. In addition, Huffman
& Carpenter, Inc. prepared a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan as
required by the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System General Permit
for construction related activities.
