| Description |
The Stream Maintenance Program (SMP) was developed in 2001 to provide multi-year regulatory agency permits for conducting annual routine stream and canal maintenance activities for District property and easement areas. In 2009, the District initiated an SMP update process to review program activities and revise the SMP; and update the program’s environmental compliance documentation. The SMP Update has been prepared to provide guiding policies, specific direction on approach, and regulatory authorization for routine stream and canal maintenance activities Maintenance activities include sediment removal, vegetation management, bank stabilization, management of animal conflicts, and minor maintenance. The Proposed Project would update the 2002 SMP, as necessary, to meet new conditions or maintenance needs of SCVWD. The SMP Update is intended to cover the 10-year planning period beginning in 2012 and ending in 2022. These SMP Update documents are intended to fully replace the original documents that guided the SMP from its inception through 2012.
