ANTONOVICH CALLS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT ON DEVIL’S GATE DAM SEDIMENT REMOVAL PROJECT

LOS ANGELES COUNTY – A motion by Los Angeles County Mayor Michael D. Antonovich directs the Department of Public Works to conduct an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) on the proposed project to remove over 1.5 million cubic yards of sediment from the Devil's Gate Dam and Reservoir area in Pasadena .  

“With a significant impact on the environment and the community, this project merits careful environmental analysis,” said Antonovich. 

The motion also requires the Department to report back to the Board in 90 days with a plan to remove sediment along the face of the dam while the EIR is conducted on the entire site.
