    Expiration date: 6/26/2024

    Section 408 permit application from the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), through the Santa Barbara County Flood Control District (SBCFCD), has requested permission from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to alter Santa Maria River, a USACE federally authorized Civil Works project (USACE project), in Santa Barbara County, California. In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), Caltrans in May 2020 published an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Proposed Project and issued a FONSI on November 25, 2020. On December 14, 2023, Caltrans published a Re-validation. The USACE independently reviewed the 2020 EA and the 2023 Re-validation, and determined the EA and Re-validation sufficiently identify and evaluate the environmental impacts related to the Section 408 Activity. Therefore, in accordance with 40 C.F.R. § 1506.3(c), USACE’s NEPA regulations at 33 C.F.R. Part 230, and EC 1165-2-220, the USACE adopted Caltrans’s EA and finalized a FONSI for this Section 408 project no. 408-SPL-2024-0010 associated with the State Route 91 Northbound Improvement Project.
