Yuba Gravel Placement

The Yuba Gravel Placement project aims to place suitable-sized spawning gravel within the upper Narrows reach for rehabilitating associated geomorphic processes and aquatic habitat in the Englebright Dam reach of the Lower Yuba River. The project will provide gravel and cobble suitable for anadromous salmonid adult spawning, embryo incubation, and survival to emergence in a key area in the lower Yuba River designated as critical habitat for the Central Valley spring-run Chinook salmon and the Central Valley steelhead. • The project requires the placement of 5,000 short tons of gravel. • The gravel placement window is from July 15th to September 1st. • The contractor must begin gravel placement within the first 5 days of the work window unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR). • The contractor must provide an accident prevention plan. • The contract includes options for road repair material and water truck standby.
