Simpson Road Bridge erosion threat mitigation and gravel removal at Nicol Pit
Tehama County
Description
The Board declared an emergency and authorized interim gravel extraction at Nicol Pit, but tabled the five-year Tehama Asphalt agreement until it comes back as a one-year emergency contract.
Impact summary
Up to 20,000 cubic yards of gravel would be removed this winter to redirect the creek away from the bridge abutment, keeping a vital rural crossing open.
