california river parkways grant program - California Resources Agency

FOR ALL PROJECTS
1. Location Map – Directional map, with enough detail to allow a person unfamiliar with the
area to locate the project site. Include a Thomas Brothers Guide map if project is in an urban
area; include other maps or aerial photographs. Streets and other notable landmarks should
be clearly marked to allow for easy identification. Maps or images must fit into an 8½” x 11”
folder.
2. USGS 1:24,000 Scale Quad Map – Project area should be clearly marked.
3. Site Plan – All site plans should contain details of the property. Indicate the names and
location of rivers, creeks or streams that abut or cross the property, other natural/geologic
features, as well as any existing buildings and/or impediments (wells, storm drains, power
lines, etc.), including exterior boundaries, public access points and proposed signage (bond
acknowledgement signage and any other interpretive signage).
For all projects that cite stream and streamside habitat restoration as an objective, submit
the following information:
1. Summary of a concept restoration plan that includes a cross-section, and plan-view and
longitudinal profile of the proposed restoration project.
2. Submit the same information and views for existing conditions.
3. A list of plants that currently inhabit the site (dominant overstory and understory
species) and an appropriate local native plant species list proposed for implementation.
4. Any additional maps, photos, etc. that will help evaluate the benefits of the project.
For development projects, the site plan should include details regarding the location of the
improvements (trails, vegetation, restrooms, amenities, etc.). Plan should be specific enough
to allow someone unfamiliar with the project to visualize it in detail. Site plans of a future or
master parkway may be submitted but should not replace the project site plan.
4. Photographs – Provide up to ten (10) labeled color photographs of different views of the
project site reflecting current conditions, flooding or erosion problems, and/or the locations of
restoration work. Pictures should be no larger than 8 ½ by 11 inches.
5. Flood management project information – If your project meets the flood management
statutory condition, please provide:
1. Evidence that the responsible umbrella flood agency (federal, state, local level)
concurred that the project is compatible with flood protection purposes and state
whether it is part of a flood management plan or project.
2. Floodplain maps (state and federal). Show location of the project relative to mapped
flood zones as applicable.
6. Signed Authorizing Resolution – Provide a signed authorizing resolution from governing
board (see page 28). Certification Letter acceptable for agencies without a governing board
(see page 29). Resolutions may be submitted later than the application filing deadline if
the board meeting schedule prohibits the applicant from obtaining a signed resolution at
application filing. Submit the draft resolution(s) and indicate the board meeting date(s)
when the resolution(s) will be adopted. Provide the adopted Resolution as soon as it
comes available.
