Typical emergency projects are immediate actions taken during or immediately after an emergency for the in-kind repair of a structure or facility, or to remove debris from a water course. Examples of emergency work that can take place without notifying CDFW in advance include immediate work necessary to protect life or property; emergency repairs to public facilities necessary to maintain service; and emergency projects to maintain, repair, or restore existing highways.
