B. MATERIALS AND METHODS
Groundwater is not anticipated to be encountered on the basis of subsurface exploration and the need for dewatering is not anticipated.
However, groundwater seepage may be encountered in excavations following rainfall or agricultural watering. Therefore, the Contractor will be required to divert channel flows around active work areas and to control surface water flows into the ditch to keep the work area from becoming saturated. Temporary Channel Diversion and Dewatering shall be incorporated into the project Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). Temporary Channel Diversion and Dewatering shall be included in their respective items of work.

No local depressions are proposed, see Plans for specific elevations to match. Temporary Shoring, Bracing, or Equivalent Method shall be per Caltrans Standard Specification Section 48.
The Contractor may submit substitute product information and structural certifications/calculations to the City Engineer for consideration.
However, if it is determined by the City Engineer to not be an effective substitution, the Contractor shall revise his/her operations to meet the Project requirements at no cost to the Agency. All work within the channel must comply with the Approved 401, 404, and 1602 approved permits.
The manner of bracing excavations shall be as set forth in the rules, orders, and regulations of the Division of Industrial Safety of the State of California. Prior to commencing the excavation of a trench 5 feet in depth or greater and into which a person will be required to descend, the Contractor shall first obtain a permit to do so from the Division of Industrial Safety.
Further, bracing and/or a permit from the Division of Industrial Safety may be required if personnel are required to enter into the area between the back of a retaining wall and an earthen slope in which the distance between the top of the retaining wall and the ground is 5 feet or more at any point behind the wall.
Shoring shall be in compliance with the following minimum requirements and all applicable requirements as set forth by the Federal and State governments.
1. Shoring is considered to be adequate sheeting, shoring, bracing, or equivalent method for (1) protection of life and limb which shall conform to applicable safety orders; (2)

protection of existing underground and above-ground private and public improvements; and (3) the remedy of any and all conditions encountered, regardless of depth, (including, but not limited to trench sloughing, pavement separation, etc.) during the construction of the Project.
2. The Contractor shall take appropriate measures when
trenching adjacent to existing utilities (i.e., sewer and water mains, storm drain, and conduits) to prevent the existing utility trench from sloughing into the new trench excavation. The wall of the new trench may be adjacent to the edge of the existing trench and, therefore, may contain loose material. The Contractor is required to use adequate shoring or other protective construction measures as required by field
conditions to prevent damage to pavement outside the
trench width and to prevent sloughing of the trench wall.
3. The Contractor shall be responsible for any sloughing and damage to the road surface or other utilities that may occur.
It shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to repair any damaged pavement or utilities as a result of the sloughing.
4. If sheeting is used to support the excavated trench, the sheeting shall be removed by the Contractor, and no such sheeting will be permitted to remain in the trench. When field conditions, the type of sheeting, or methods of construction used by the Contractor are such as to make the removal of sheeting impracticable, the Engineer may permit portions of the sheeting to be cut off to a specified depth and remain in the trench.
5. Should the bracing system utilize steel H-beams or piles or other similar vertical supports, driving of aid vertical supports will not be permitted except for the last 1.2 m (4 feet). The vertical supports shall be placed in holes drilled to a depth of 1.2 m (4 feet) above the proposed bottom of pile, except where this procedure is impracticable. The vertical support may then be driven to the required depth, not to exceed 1.2 m (4 feet).
During the drilling and driving operations, the Contractor shall take care to avoid damage to utilities.
At locations where the drilling of such holes is impracticable because of the existence of rocks, running sand, or other similar conditions, and provided said impracticability is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Engineer by actual drilling operations by the Contractor, the Engineer may, upon request of the Contractor, approve the use of means other than drilling for the purpose of placing the vertical support. Such other means, however, must be of a nature which will accomplish, as nearly

Failure by the Contractor to complete paving of ground streets in the same week may result in suspension of the edge milling operations by the City. The work will be suspended until the Contractor can demonstrate to the City's satisfaction that the work can be properly scheduled. City reserves the right to limit the amount of tapered edge milling work to be performed should the Contractor fail to complete paving of streets in the same week. Suspension of the edge milling and paving operations by the City will not result in a time extension to the Contract in accordance with General Conditions Section 6.3(d).
EDGE GRINDING
Work includes traffic control, cold milling a tapered swath 6' wide varying from a depth of 0" at 6' from gutter lip and up to 3" at the gutter lip, disposal, sweeping, and cleaning. Work also includes end conforms, where the pavement conforms to existing pavement running longitudinally (with traffic) and consists of a taper conforming to the dimensions shown per plan.
At locations where existing pavement fabric is encountered the Contractor shall deepen the depth of milling up to 1/2" to remove the fabric at no additional cost. Milling in excess of 1/2" shall be considered extra work. All pavement fabric exposed by the milling operation and not removed, shall be burned off, or scraped off at the direction of the Engineer.
Cold millings shall be swept, loaded, and removed from the site during the cold milling operation. Cold millings shall be swept, loaded, and removed from the site concurrently with the cold milling operation.

The purpose of this specification is to establish criteria for the Modular Subsurface Flow Wetland Systems (MWS-L-4-8-V and MWS-L-21-3’-0”-V or approved equal) used for biofiltration of stormwater runoff including dry weather flows and other contaminated water sources used for the modular wetland systems. The modular wetland systems include a preengineered biofiltration system composed of a pretreatment chamber containing filtration cartridges, a horizontal flow biofiltration chamber with a peripheral void area and a centralized and vertically extending underdrain, the biofiltration chamber containing a sorptive media mix which does not contain any organic material, and a discharge chamber containing an orifice control structure. Treated water flows horizontally in series through the pretreatment chamber cartridges, biofiltration chamber and orifice control structure.
Modular wetlands (MWS-L-4-8-V and MWS-L-21-3’-0”-V or approved equal) are composed of a pretreatment chamber, a biofiltration chamber and a discharge chamber. The pretreatment device houses cartridge media filters, which consist of filter media housed in a perforated enclosure. The untreated runoff flows into the system via subsurface piping and or surface inlet. Water entering the system is forced through the filter cartridge enclosures by gravity flow. Then the flow contacts the filter media. The flow through the media is horizontal toward the center of each individual media filter. In the center of the media shall be a round slotted PVC pipe of no greater than 1.5” in diameter. The slotted PVC pipe shall extend downward into the water transfer cavity of the cartridge. The slotted PVC pipe shall be threaded on the bottom to connect to the water transfer cavity. After pollutants have been removed by the filter media the water discharges the pretreatment chamber and flows into the water transfer system and is conveyed to the biofiltration chamber. Once runoff has been filtered by the biofiltration chamber it is collected by the vertical underdrain and conveyed to a discharge chamber equipped with a flow control orifice plate. Finally, the treated flow exits the system.
Regarding pollutants, the modular wetland will remove and retain debris, sediments, TSS, dissolved and particulate metals and nutrients including nitrogen and phosphorus species, bacteria, BOD, oxygen

Los Angeles CA 90013
SUBJECT: Amendment Request for the Clean Water Act Section 401 Water Quality Certification and Order for the Pleasant Valley Road Bike Lanes Project (File Number 24-026) Dear Man Voong:
The City of Camarillo Public Works Department (City) received a Clean Water Act Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC)and Order for the Pleasant Valley Road Bike Lanes Project (Project), WDID 4WQC40124026, R4 File Number 24-026, effective November 24, 2025 (see Attachment A). The WQC contained discrepancies in the reported impact acreages and corresponding mitigation quantities. Therefore, the City formally requests an amendment to the WQC to correct these discrepancies. This amendment request does not propose any changes to the approved project footprint, construction methods, or extent of impacts.
As confirmed via email on October 9, 2025, the Project will result in 0.50 acre of temporary impacts on non-wetland waters of the state (see Attachment B). The WQC incorrectly identifies
0.48 acre on page 4 and in Table 1 and Table 4. Table 1 and Table 4 of the WQC should be revised to reflect the correct temporary impact acreage of 0.50 acre, as summarized in Table 1 and Table 2 below.

compensatory mitigation. This acreage is inconsistent with the permanent impact area of 0.34 acre identified on page 4 and summarized in Table 1 of the WQC. The correct permanent impact area is 0.34 acre. Based on the required 2:1 area replacement ratio, the compensatory mitigation requirement identified in Section 1 Compensatory Mitigation Plan on page 19 should be revised from 0.78 acre to 0.68 acre of rehabilitation credits.
The City also requests a revision to the mitigation credit quantities identified in Section 3 Total Required Compensatory Mitigation on page 19 to reflect current mitigation bank credit availability. At the time the Draft Agreement of Sale of Credits was prepared, Petersen Ranch Mitigation Bank did not have sufficient seasonal wetland rehabilitation credits available to satisfy the full mitigation requirement. The required 0.68 acre of compensatory mitigation would therefore be fulfilled through the purchase of 0.18 acre of 1600 seasonal wetland rehabilitation credits and 0.50 acre of 1600 non-wetland riparian rehabilitation credits. These revised mitigation quantities should also be reflected in Table 5 of the WQC (see Table 3).

I. Order
This Clean Water Act (CWA) section 401 Water Quality Certification action and Order (Order) is issued at the request of City of Camarillo (hereinafter Permittee) for the Project. This Order is for the purpose described in the application and supplemental information submitted by the Permittee.
The application was received on February 14, 2024. The application was deemed complete on January 22, 2025.
II. Public Notice
The Los Angeles Water Board provided public notice of the application pursuant to California Code of Regulations, title 23, section 3858 from February 16, 2024, to the effective date of the Order. The Los Angeles Water Board did not receive any comments during the comment period.
III. Project Purpose
The purpose of the project is to widen the existing Pleasant Valley Road to construct bike lanes in each direction. This would minimize conflict between vehicular traffic and bicycles and promote a safe and efficient route for bicycle commuters. The project will also restore the flow capacity of two unnamed stream channels and repair their damaged and eroded banks.
IV. Project Description
Background
The project is located within the City of Camarillo, in the southern portion of the County of Ventura.
Pleasant Valley Road at the Project location consists of a 24- to 25-foot-wide, two-lane road with traffic traveling east or west. The road intersects North Las Posas Road to the West and 5th street to the East.
Two unnamed drainage channels run along both the east and west side Las Posas Road. These channels flow south towards the intersection of Pleasant Valley Road where they turn 90 degrees and continue flowing west and east along the northern shoulder of Pleasant Valley Road. The channels flow intermittently when they receive drainage from the adjacent farmland, roadway, and other nearby land uses through sheet flow. Vegetation can be found growing on top of the banks, on the banks, or within the channels throughout different portions of the channels A small portion of the channel running along Las Posas Road is entirely earthen, with the rest of the channel running along Las Posas Road and Pleasant Valley Road consisting of a trapezoidal shaped channel with eroded grouted concrete banks and a soft bottom. Nine concrete box culverts are located under nine asphalted concrete driveways. Erosion of the banks of the eastern channel has led to greater sedimentation of the channel running along Las Posas and has reduced flow capacity. In addition, existing flows along the channel flowing east along Pleasant Valley Road have eroded the south bank with visible signs of scouring.
Project activities
The overall project size is estimated at 9.02 acres with a timeline of 10 months. The existing driveways and culverts will be replaced, and the eastern channel will be excavated and recontoured with either concrete lining or soft bottom. In addition, modular wetlands will be installed.
More specifically, the Project will include the following activities:
a. A cofferdam, made of gravel bags and plastic sheeting, will be installed in the north drainage channel between the driveways. The cofferdam will divert flow from the upstream channel downstream through the dry work area through 12-inch piping with an energy dissipation
Pleasant Valley Road Bike Lanes Project Reg. Meas. ID: 455843 Place ID: 893481
File No. 24-026
installed at the downstream end of the pipe. A pump will be sized based on the flow of a 2- year, 24-hour storm.
b. All vegetation located within the channel or banks will be removed. c. A portion of the channel will be converted to a U-shaped channel, with concrete lining on three sides, which will require 1,100 CY of concrete fill. The U-shaped channel will cover
0.208 acres of waters.
d. Nine modular wetlands will be installed to filter runoff prior to discharge into the channel, transitioning into a trapezoidal channel. Three units will be sized at four feet by eight feet, and six units will be sized at four feet by twenty-one feet. Installation will require the excavation of 54 CY of material and fill of 30 CY of 6-inch aggregate and 41 CY of soil. The modular wetlands will impact 0.0076 acres of waters.
e. Certain segments of the channel will be excavated and recontoured into a trapezoidal shape, with concrete lining of the banks and a soft bottom. The segments will require 1,500 cubic yards of concrete fill. The new concrete trapezoidal channels will cover 0.118 acres of waters.
f. In addition, all the existing driveways, mailboxes, and culverts running under the driveways will be demolished, replaced, and widened. The newly widened portions of the driveway will cover 0.0039 acres of waters.
a. 1,500 cubic yards (CY) of fill will be excavated from the channels and 4,000 CY will be used for structure backfill for recontouring. 70,000 square feet of welded wire mesh will also be included for the modifications of the unnamed drainage. Additionally, 6,400 linear feet of concrete curb and gutter will be added. Excavated material will be reused onsite if practical, and the rest will be transported off site for disposal.
Once construction is completed, the coffer dam and conveyance system will be removed.
Temporarily impacted areas will be restored to pre-project conditions once construction is complete.
Post-construction maintenance of the channel was not proposed by the applicant.
Vehicles and equipment consist of a backhoe loader, front-end loader, cold planer, concrete pump, saw cutter, small water pumps, asphalt paver, dump truck, compact roller, bulldozer, excavator, motor grader, bobcat, and small hand tools. These vehicles and equipment will be staged along Pleasant Valley Road just east of Southfield Road in the widened shoulder section of roadway along the north curb line. Construction activities will take place in the channel; however, vehicles will be operated mostly from the roadway.
Demolition, construction, and removal of vegetation will result in 0.48 acres of temporary impact to the waters of the state. Excavation, recontouring, and relining of the banks and the bottom for certain portions of channel will degrade existing habitat and permanently impact 0.34 acre of waters of the state.

VI. Project Impact and Receiving Waters Information
The Project is located within the jurisdiction of the Los Angeles Water Board. Receiving waters and groundwater potentially impacted by this Project are protected in accordance with the applicable water quality control plan (Basin Plan) for the region and other plans and policies which may be accessed online at: http://www.waterboards.ca.gov/plans_policies/. The Basin Plan includes water quality standards, which consist of existing and potential beneficial uses of waters of the state, water quality objectives to protect those uses, and the state and federal antidegradation policies.
It is the policy of the State of California that every human being has the right to safe, clean, affordable, and accessible water adequate for human consumption, cooking, and sanitary purposes.
This Order promotes that policy by requiring discharges to meet contaminant levels designed to protect human health and ensure that water is safe for domestic use.

VIII. Avoidance and Minimization
The Project qualified as a tier 3 project and the Project is the least environmentally damaging practicable alternative. (State Wetland Definition and Procedures for Discharges of Dredged or Fill Material to Waters of the State, section IV.A.1.h).
Four alternatives were analyzed for the project during the development of the design. Alternatives were assessed for feasibility based on design feasibility, hydraulic capacity of the drainage, 1 Includes only temporary direct impacts to waters of the state and does not include upland areas of temporary disturbance which could result in a discharge to waters of the state. 2 Cubic Yards (CY); Linear Feet (LF)

File No. 24-026
inclusion of stormwater pre-treatment and water quality BMPs, need for right of way, cost, and environmental impacts. These alternatives are discussed in more detail below.
Alternative 1 – Earthen Channel
The project would maintain an earthen channel. The alternative was rejected due to the finer soils texture present on site and the current channel slopes. Finer soil particles are more easily transported and steeper bank slopes (1:1 bank rise over run ratio) increase flow velocity, which would increase erosion and degrade bank stability. Bank slopes would need a greater than 4:1 ratio, to maintain integrity and require a 25-feet encroachment to the adjacent agricultural properties and utility pole relocations. The additional property acquisition and utility pole relocations would result in increased costs and impact agricultural lands.
Alternative 2 - Vegetated Channel
Alternative 2 included a recontoured drainage channel with a vegetated swale on the north side of the roadway and a mountable dike on the south side. Alternative 2 was rejected because vegetated swales would need a 10 percent minimum slope, requiring a 53-foot encroachment into the adjacent agricultural properties and utility pole relocations. The additional property acquisition and utility pole relocations would result in increased costs and impact agricultural lands.
Alternative 3 - Earthen Bottomed Channel with Geogrid and Rock Slope Protection Lined Slopes Alternative 3 included a recontoured channel with rock slope protection (RSP) over a geogrid.
Alternative 3 was rejected because the use of RSP requires side slopes be greater than 4:1 ratio, and would require a 25-foot encroachment into the adjacent agricultural properties and utility pole relocations. The additional property acquisition and utility pole relocations would result in increased costs and impact agricultural lands. In addition, the geogrid would also require additional maintenance cost.
Alternative 4 - Earthen Bottomed Channel with Concrete Lined Slopes and Concrete-Lined UChannel Alternative 4 includes a combination of an earthen-bottomed channel with concrete-lined slopes and a concrete-lined U-channel on the north side of the roadway. A concrete curb and gutter with drainage inlets and nine modular wetlands are included to meet Green Streets requirements and stormwater pre-treatment and water quality BMPs. For most of the length of the project, the channel would be earthen bottomed with concrete-lined slopes, but a concrete-line U channel would be needed in the areas where the modular wetlands are installed due to the width constraints within the corridor. Alternative 4 was the preferred alternative because stormwater pre-treatment and water filtration maintains the hydraulic capacity of the channel and it does not incur additional cost through property acquisition and utility pole relocations.
IX. Compensatory Mitigation
The Permittee has agreed to provide compensatory mitigation described in section XIV.H for temporary impacts resulting in temporal loss and/or permanent degradation of ecological condition.
The Permittee has agreed to provide compensatory mitigation for direct impacts, described in section XIV. I for 0.39 acre of permanent impacts to waters of the state.
X. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)

3. Invasive Species and Soil Borne Pathogens
a. Any temporary erosion control implemented during construction shall be completed using noninvasive species. At project completion, all temporarily disturbed areas shall be re-contoured to pre-construction conditions.
4. Post-Construction Stormwater Management
a. Installation of the proposed modular wetlands shall allow stormwater to enter a biofiltration system prior to being released into the drainage.
5. Roads
a. Sweeping shall be implemented when sediment is tracked from the construction area onto public or private roads, typically at site entrances and exits. Sweeping shall be conducted by hand or via mechanical methods such as vacuuming. Kick brooms or sweeper attachments shall not be used. This BMP shall prevent sediment from entering a storm drain or receiving waters.
6. Sediment Control and Stabilization/Erosion Control
a. Temporary fiber rolls shall be installed at the top of the bank to prevent any erosion into the drainage. Fiber rolls shall also be used around temporary stockpiles, and along the perimeter of the project to reduce the likelihood of sediment outside of the construction area. b. Temporary construction entrances and exits shall be used to reduce the likelihood of mud and sediment tracking onto public roads by construction vehicles. This would be achieved by using corrugated steel panels, Class 8 rock slope protection (RSP), Type A rock, and/or Type B rock. These materials shall be located at the entrances and/or exits of the construction area, forcing any construction vehicle to drive over the panels, RSP, or rock while removing any mud or sediment.
c. A temporary gravel bag berm/earthen berm shall be used during construction for reducing mud or sediment from leaving the construction area. A gravel bag berm shall also be placed parallel to the roadway to prevent roadway runoff from entering the construction area. A temporary gravel bag berm shall be placed around the limits of the construction area over the footing of any temporary fencing for stability while also reducing the likelihood of soil leaving the construction area. A temporary gravel bag berm shall be used to construct a temporary drainage crossing for workers.
d. Temporary check dams shall be used if the velocity of water in the drainage is too high. The temporary check dams shall consist of rock, gravel bags, compost socks, fiber rolls, or other proprietary product placed across the drainage.
e. Silt fencing, fiber rolls, straw bales, or other measures shall be implemented during construction to minimize dust, dirt, and construction debris from entering the jurisdictional features, and/or leaving the construction area.
7. Wildlife and Special Status Species
a. Pesticide/insecticide shall not be used as part of the Project. b. Vegetation removal and excavation shall be reduced to the extent feasible. c. To confirm the presence/absence of the overwintering monarch butterfly between September and March, within 48 hours of construction a qualified biologist shall survey suitable refuge
Pleasant Valley Road Bike Lanes Project Reg. Meas. ID: 455843 Place ID: 893481
File No. 24-026
sites (typically eucalyptus, Monterey pine, and Monterey cypress) where vegetation removal and excavation will be conducted.
d. If the monarch butterfly is identified overwintering within areas of vegetation removal, efforts shall be taken to avoid these areas. If the areas cannot be avoided, appropriate buffers shall be installed under direction of a qualified biologist, and the overwintering monarch butterflies shall be allowed to finish overwintering and migrate out of the project area. Once the overwintering monarch butterflies have left the project area, the buffers shall be removed. e. Construction in areas with trees or vegetation that may provide nesting habitat for birds and raptors shall be reduced to the maximum extent feasible. f. Construction during bird nesting season (typically February 1 to September 1) shall be avoided to the extent feasible.
g. If construction is required during the nesting season, nesting bird surveys shall be completed no more than 72 hours prior to construction activities to determine if nesting birds or active nests are within 300 feet (500 feet for potential raptor nests) of the construction area. Surveys shall be repeated if construction activities are suspended for three days or more. h. If nesting birds are found in the construction zone, measures to ensure that the birds and/or their nests are not harmed shall be implemented, including but not limited to, installation and maintenance of appropriate buffers (typically 300 feet for song birds and 500 feet for raptors) until nesting activity has ended. The buffer size shall be modified, under direction of a qualified biologist, and California Depart of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) if appropriate, if it is determined that construction activities shall not likely have adverse effect on the birds. i. If the project is constructed during maternal season for bats (typically late March through midSeptember), a thorough bat roosting habitat assessment shall be conducted of all potential roosting habitat within 100 feet of construction activities. The survey shall include a visual inspection to identify signs of roosting, and emergence surveys if needed to confirm presence or absence of bats.
j. If a maternal colony of bats is found, no work shall be conducted within 100 feet of the maternal roosting site until the maternal season is finished or the bats have left the site, or as otherwise directed by a qualified biologist. The site shall be designated as a sensitive area and protected as such until the bats have left the site. No activities shall be authorized adjacent to the roosting site. Combustion equipment, such as generators, pumps, and vehicles, shall not be parked or operated under or adjacent to the roosting site. Construction personnel shall not be authorized to enter areas beneath the colony, especially during the evening exodus (typically between 15 minutes prior to sunset and one hour following sunset). k. Vegetation removed from the project area shall follow Caltrans Standard Specifications for Clearing and Grubbing (17-2) and Roadside Clearing (20-1.03C). Existing vegetation shall be preserved to the extent feasible, and BMPs, such as identification of existing invasive species, avoidance of invasive species in erosion control, staff training, equipment cleaning, and monitoring, shall be implemented in accordance with Executive Order 13112. l. New landscaping materials, including erosion control seed mixes and other plantings, shall be composed of non-invasive species and shall be clear of weeds, and all erosion control and landscape planting shall be conducted in a manner that shall not result in the spread of invasive species.
m. Plants listed in the Pest Ratings of Noxious Weed Species and Noxious Weed Seed (United States Department of Agriculture, 2003) shall not be used as part of the project.

File No. 24-026
Conditions Justification
The purpose of this attachment is to explain why a condition is necessary to assure that the authorized discharge will comply with water quality requirements, and a citation to federal, state, or tribal law that authorizes the condition.
This Attachment uses the same organizational structure as the Conditions Section, and the statements below correspond with the conditions set forth in the Conditions Section. The Sections preceding the Conditions Section are not “conditions”.
The following three sources of authority are applicable to almost all conditions. Because these authorities are relevant to so many conditions, they are described in greater detail here and then cross-referenced below.
The state’s Statement of Policy with respect to Maintaining High Quality of Waters in California (“Antidegradation Policy”, State Board Resolution No. 68-16), requires that any “activity which produces or may produce a waste or increased volume or concentration of waste and which discharges or proposes to discharge to existing high quality waters will be required to meet waste discharge requirements which will result in the best practicable treatment or control of the discharge necessary to assure that (a) a pollution or nuisance will not occur and (b) the highest water quality consistent with maximum benefit to the people of the state will be maintained.” All Regional Board Water Quality Control Plans incorporate the state’s Antidegradation Policy by reference. The state Antidegradation Policy incorporates the federal Antidegradation Policy (40 CFR Part 131.12), which requires "[e]xisting instream water uses and the level of water quality necessary to protect the existing uses shall be maintained and protected." According to U.S.
EPA, for dischargers of dredged or fill material comply with the federal Antidegradation Policy by complying with U.S. EPA’s section 404(b)(1) Guidelines. The State Water Board adopted a modified version of U.S. EPA’s section 404(b)(1) Guidelines in the Dredge or Fill Procedures (also referred as State Supplemental Guidelines).
The State Wetland Definition and Procedures for Discharges of Dredged or Fill Material to Waters of the State (Dredge or Fill Procedures) were adopted on April 2, 2019 and went into effect on May 28, 2020. The Dredge or Fill Procedures were adopted pursuant to the State Water Board’s authority under Water Code section 13140 (state policy for water quality control) and 13170 (water quality control plan), and accordingly have regulatory effect. Consistent with Government Code, section 11353, a clear and concise summary of the Dredge or Fill Procedures is available in California Code of Regulations, section 3013. Per the Dredge or Fill Procedures, the permitting authority may only approve a project if the demonstrations set forth in Section IV.B.1 have been made. The information required by Section IV.A is necessary to ensure compliance with Section IV.B.1.
In addition, the conditions within the Order are generally required pursuant to the Los Angeles Water Board’s Water Quality Control Plan for the Coastal Watersheds of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties (Basin Plan). The Basin Plan includes water quality standards, which consist of existing and potential beneficial uses of waters of the state, water quality objectives to protect those uses, and the state and federal antidegradation policies. For instance, the Basin Plan includes water quality objectives for chemical constituents, oil and grease, pH, dissolved

File No. 24-026
oxygen, temperature, toxicity, pesticides, solid, suspended or settleable materials, floating material, turbidity, exotic vegetation, color, and taste and odor which ensure protection of beneficial uses.
Furthermore, the conditions within the Order are also required, where applicable, pursuant to statewide water quality control plans and policies which were adopted and are periodically revised pursuant to Water Code section 13240, including, but not limited to, the following:
• Inland Surface Waters, Enclosed Bays, and Estuaries (ISWEBE) Plan, and • State of California Executive Order W-59-93 (Wetlands “No Net Loss” Policy).
Furthermore, California Code of Regulations, title 23, Chapter 28 also sets forth regulations pertaining to water quality certifications. Section 3856 sets forth information that must be included in water quality certification requests, includes a description of steps that have or will be taken to avoid, minimize, and compensate for impacts to waters of the state.
Conditions
Authorization
Authorization under this Order is granted based on the application information submitted. Water Code section 13264 prohibits any discharge that is not specifically authorized in this Order.
Reporting and Notification Requirements
The reports confirm that the best management practices required under this Order are sufficient to protect beneficial uses and water quality objectives. The reports related to accidental discharges also ensure that corrective actions, if any, that are necessary to minimize the impact or clean up such discharges are taken as soon as possible. These monitoring and reporting conditions are authorized because the Water Boards have the authority to investigate the quality of any waters of the state within its region under Water Code sections 13383 and 13267. The burden of preparing these reports, including costs, bears a reasonably relationship to the benefits to be obtained from the reports. Specifically, the reports are necessary to demonstrate protection of beneficial uses and compliance with the requirements of the Order and relevant laws (including the Clean Water Act and other authorities). The anticipated costs are minimal as the reporting obligations require only visual monitoring, in-field measurements, and notification reporting.
Authorization under this Order is granted based on the application information submitted, including identification of the legally responsible party. Conditions regarding transfers are necessary to confirm whether the new owner wishes to assume legal responsibility for compliance with this Order. If not, the original discharger remains responsible for compliance with this Order. Confirmation is also necessary to confirm whether liability for long-term best management practices maintenance is accepted by another entity. If not, the original discharger remains responsible for compliance with this Order. Water Code section 13264 prohibits any discharge that is not specifically authorized in this Order.

Water Quality Monitoring
General
This monitoring condition is authorized because the Water Boards have the authority to investigate the quality of any waters of the state within its region under Water Code sections 13383 and 13267. The burden of monitoring, including costs, bears a reasonable relationship to the need for the monitoring, and the benefits to be obtained from the monitoring. The anticipated costs are minimal as only visual monitoring and in-field measurements are required.
Specifically, the reports are necessary to demonstrate protection of beneficial uses and compliance with the requirements of the Order and relevant laws (including the Clean Water Act and other authorities
Accidental Discharges/Noncompliance
See explanation for the Reporting and Notification Requirements Section In-Water Work or Diversions
Consistent with the Dredge or Fill Procedures, section IV.A.2.c, water quality monitoring plans are required for any in-water work, including temporary dewatering or diversions. These conditions are required to assure that 1) the discharge shall not adversely affect the beneficial uses of the receiving water or cause a condition of nuisance; 2) the discharge shall comply with all applicable water quality objectives; and 3) treatment and control of the discharge shall be implemented to assure that pollution and nuisance will not occur and the highest water quality is maintained. A water quality monitoring plan is necessary to conform to water quality standards for oil and grease, dissolved oxygen, pH, turbidity, and temperature. The Regional Water Board’s Basin Plan and/or applicable statewide plans and policies contains provisions related to all these constituents.
These monitoring and reporting conditions are authorized because the Water Boards have the authority to investigate the quality of any waters of the state within its region under Water Code sections 13383 and 13267. The burden of preparing these reports, including costs, bears a reasonable relationship to the need for, and benefits of, the reports. The anticipated costs are minimal as the sampling requirements are either visual or only require a grab sample on a daily and/or weekly basis. Specifically, the reports are necessary to demonstrate protection of beneficial uses and compliance with the requirements of the Order and relevant laws (including the Clean Water Act and other authorities
Post-Construction

Standard Conditions
“This Order is subject to modification or revocation …” “This Order is not intended and shall not be construed to apply to any activity involving a hydroelectric facility …”
“This Order is conditioned upon total payment of any fee …” These Conditions are standard conditions that “shall be included as conditions of all water quality certification actions.” (Cal. Code of Regs., section 3860.) General Compliance
“Permitted actions must not cause a violation of any applicable water quality standards …”
By the plain language of section 401 of the Clean Water Act, permitted actions may not cause a violation of applicable water quality standards. This condition related to compliance with water quality objectives and designated beneficial uses is required pursuant to the Los Angeles Water Board’s Basin Plan and/or other applicable statewide plans and policies. The Basin Plan’s water quality standards consist of existing and potential beneficial uses of waters of the state, water quality objectives to protect those uses, and the state and federal antidegradation policies. The Antidegradation Policy requires that the quality of existing high-quality water be maintained unless any change will be consistent with the maximum benefit to the people of the state, will not unreasonably affect present or anticipated future beneficial uses of such water, and will not result in water quality less than that prescribed in water quality control plans or policies. The Antidegradation Policy further requires best practicable treatment or control of the discharge necessary to assure that pollution or nuisance will not occur and the highest water quality consistent with maximum benefit to the people of the state will be maintained. Applicable beneficial uses and water quality objectives to protect those uses include the designated beneficial uses (Basin Plan, Chapter 2, Tables 2-1, 2-1a, 2-3, 2-3a, 2-4, and 2-4a), and water quality objectives for chemical constituents (Basin Plan, page 3-29), color (Basin Plan, page 3- 32), exotic vegetation (Basin Plan, page 3-32), floating material (Basin Plan, page 3-33), oil and grease (Basin Plan, page 3-34), dissolved oxygen (Basin Plan, page 3-39), pesticides (Basin Plan, page 3-40), pH (Basin Plan, page 3-40), solid, suspended and settleable material (Basin Plan, page 3-44), taste and odor (Basin Plan, page 3-44), temperature (Basin Plan, page 3-44), toxicity (Basin Plan, page 3-45), and turbidity (Basin Plan, page 3-46). “The Permittee must, at all times, fully comply with engineering plans, specifications, and technical reports…”
Authorization under this Order is granted based on the application information submitted, including engineering plans, specifications, and technical reports. Water Code section 13264 prohibits any discharge that is not specifically authorized in this Order.
Administrative
“Signatory requirements for all document submittals…”
Conditions related to signatory requirements are also authorized by Water Code sections 13383 and 13267, which requires any person discharging waste that could affects the quality of waters
Pleasant Valley Road Bike Lanes Project Reg. Meas. ID: 455843 Attachment D Place ID: 893481
File No. 24-026
to provide to the Water Boards, under penalty of perjury, any technical or monitoring program reports as required by the Water Boards. The signatory requirements are consistent with 40 C.F.R. section 122.22.
“The Permittee shall grant Los Angeles Water Board staff …” Conditions related to site access requirements are authorized pursuant to the Water Boards’ authority to investigate the quality of any waters of the state within its region under Water Code sections 13383 and 13267. Water Code section 13267(c) provides that “the regional board may inspect the facilities of any person to ascertain whether the purposes of this division are being met and waste discharge requirements are being complied with.” “A copy of this Order shall be provided to any consultants, contractors, and subcontractors …”
“A copy of this Order must be available at the Project site(s) during construction…”
These conditions require site personnel (agents of the applicant) and agencies to be familiar with the content of the Order and mandate availability of the document at the project site. These conditions are required to assure that any authorized discharge will comply with the terms and conditions of the Order and is inherently tied to the signature requirements required by Water Code section 13267.
“Lake or Streambed Alteration Agreement”
This condition is required pursuant to California Code of Regulations section 3856(e), which requires that copies be provided to the Water Boards of “any final and signed federal, state, and local licenses, permits, and agreements (or copies of the draft documents, if not finalized) that will be required for any construction, operation, maintenance, or other actions associated with the activity. If no final or draft document is available, a list of all remaining agency regulatory approvals being sought shall be included.”
Best Management Practices
All the conditions related to best management practices are consistent with the Water Board’s authority to establish, “[w]ater quality conditions that could reasonably be achieved through the coordinated control of all factors which affect water quality in the area” pursuant to Water Code section 13241(c). Water Code section 13264 prohibits any discharge that is not specifically authorized in this Order. The activities authorized under this Order have the potential to result in a discharge that exceeds water quality objectives, which is prohibited by the Clean Water Act, Antidegradation Policy and Water Code section 13263. As required by Water Code section 13369, all Water Quality Control Plans incentivize the use of best management practices to prevent prohibited discharges into waters of the state.
Site Management
This condition is necessary to prevent violation of state discharge prohibitions that protect water quality objectives. For instance, fuels and lubricants associated with the use of mechanized equipment have the potential to result in toxic discharges to waters of the state in violation of water quality standards, including the floating material and toxicity and floating material water
