1 (? -- 5o--cC()Oco ( c,4 ~ 5' m -t:to3~o H Since the time of its construction the San Joaquin mainline has served the San Joaquin Valley. At numerous points sidings, spurs and side tracks were added to tap local industries or commercial centers. For example, two sites, SPM-24 and SPM-25, are connected to the mainline by spurs originally built in 1898s (Kathy Bisphas, Heublein Wines, April 27, 1994) In 1923 the Southern Pacific began a major program of rehabilitation and development that lasted through 1930 and cost $387,000,000; it was one of the largest such programs in the company's history (Heath 1945: 25-30). During the Great Depression, Southern Pacific's revenue dropped and reduction of services followed; some branch lines were abandoned and torn up, unprofitable services curtailed, and old equipment scrapped. In contrast, World War II brought record freight orders and greatly increased passenger traffic. Because most of the Southern Pacific's mainline in California is single track, increased traffic presented a serious problem. To speed wartime delivery schedules, the company installed a Centralized Traffic Control system on its California lines. Further major improvements in the tracks included: installation of 1,400 miles of new rail, mostly 113-pound and 132-pound replacement track for lighter, older rails; 268 sidings and siding extensions; strengthening track structures, such as bridges and trestles; construction of new roundhouse and shop facilities; and expansion of stations (Hofsommer 1986: ; Heath 1945:44-50). After the war, Southern Pacific used its wartime gains to enhance its operating system. Perhaps the biggest improvement to the Southern Pacific railway route in California during the post-world War II period was its impressive 78.3 mile, $22 million Palmdale cut-off completed in 1967, which included upgrading the main line through the San Joaquin Valley with new welded "ribbon rails" manufactured at the Tracy rail-welding plant. The ties, rails, and ballast were laid with newly developed, mechanized track-laying machines that placed the ties, aligned rails, drove spikes, and spread ballast with precision impossible to obtain in the previous century. These rails are still functioning on hundreds of miles of Southern Pacific track throughout the Central Valley (Sacramento Bee, May 14, 1967; Southern Pacific Bulletin, December 1967). This program accounts, to a large degree, for the modern condition of the San Joaquin mainline seen at the recordation points. Evaluation of Feature The Southern Pacific San Joaquin Valley mainline crossing sites evaluated as a part of this inventory do not appear to be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. While the line was built in the 1870s, and played an important role in the history of transportation in California and the western United States, and to the development of towns and agriculture in the San Joaquin Valley, the railroad related resources at the 35 sites recorded have insufficient integrity of materials, setting, design, workmanship, feeling and association to be eligible to the National Register.

2 (?-s-o-occ:oor ca-- ST!1-cco3s- oh The resources that would be significant and eligible for the National Register would be those that were related to the original construction of the Southern Pacific main line through the San Joaquin Valley during the period , or which exhibit important characteristics (construction techniques, engineering features, etc.) of that period. None of the crossing points surveyed, however, have resources from the period of significance. Like most heavily used main railroad routes, this line has aspects that are more similar to a machine than a structure. As with all pieces of heavy equipment, over time parts become worn out or break and are then replaced. The technology of railroad construction has also undergone significant evolution in the past 100 years with respect to rail manufacturing. The iron rails laid in the 1870s were far different from the modern rails rolling out of steel plants today. In the case of the 35 mainline sites (SPM-1 through SPM-35), the major resource related to the period of significance ( ) is the right of way itself; all other resources --rails, tie plates, ties, ballasting, signals, warning arms, road crossings, etc. -- have been replaced and exhibit either dates or characteristics that place their installation well after the period of significance. Rail dates at these locations provide an insight into the process of rebuilding the valley railroad in the 20th century. JRP field crews collected 106 rail dates at the 35 sites on the mainline. Of these, only 15 were from the period ; none were earlier. Ten rail dates were from 1956, 40 from (consonant with the Southern Pacific's rebuilding program of that time), 28 were from , and 14 were from the years The sites that have the oldest elements, such as SPM-17, SPM-24, and SPM-25 still only dated to the late 1920s; and those have survived primarily because of lighter and less regular use off the mainline. Furthermore these sites, primarily sidings or short spurs, are not of the same historical significance as the mainline. Therefore none of the 35 Southern Pacific San Joaquin Valley Lines sites crossed by the Mojave Pipeline proposed main line or alternatives described above are eligible for listing in the National Register owing to an overall lack of integrity to the period of significance, primarily in setting, design, materials, workmanship, feeling and association.

Description: The Modesto Irrigation District (MID) Lateral No. 4 was completed between 1901 and MID was organized in 1887 and was the second irrigation district in the state of California. Lateral No. 4 plays a secondary role as a branch of MID s main irrigation canal. Lateral No. 4 is approximately 12.9 miles long and begins as a diversion of MID Lateral No. 3. It flows westerly through a concrete-lined canal to the Finnegan Cut of the San Joaquin River. Lateral No. 4 was lined with concrete during the 1920s and additional lining was completed between 1956 and 1960 (Davis-King and Thornton 2009). The segment within the ACE Extension California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Study Area is north of Kansas Avenue between 8th and 9th Streets in Modesto. In this location, the lateral crosses beneath the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) tracks in a buried culvert. Open portions of the lateral northeast and southwest of the UPRR tracks outside of the CEQA study area are lined with concrete or gunite, are in active use, and appear to be regularly maintained. * P3b.

Significance: Theme irrigation systems Area Modesto, Stanislaus County Period of Significance Property Type irrigation lateral Applicable Criteria N/A (Discuss importance in terms of historical or architectural context as defined by theme, period, and geographic scope. Also address integrity.) Shelly Davis-King and Mark V. Thornton recorded, but did not formally evaluate, a segment of Lateral No. 4 in 2009 for a report titled Historical Resources Survey Report, Proposed Modesto Irrigation District, Rosemore-Finney Transmission Line, Stanislaus County, California. The 2009 State of California Department of Parks and Recreation 523 Series forms are attached. After review of the previous recordation and current research, the present evaluation concludes that the segment of Lateral No. 4 within the CEQA Study Area does not appear to meet the criteria for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) or the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), nor does it appear to be an historical resource for the purposes of CEQA. The lateral has been evaluated in accordance with Section (a)(2)-(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, using the criteria outlined in Section of the California Public Resources Code. Evaluation Under NRHP Criterion A or CRHR Criterion 1, the MID Lateral No. 4 has no significant association with important historical events. Although the lateral is within the MID, it functions on a secondary level to the Modesto Main Canal, and does not reflect the key events associated with the development of the area and water conveyance for agricultural uses. It is not significant as an individual resource or as a contributor to a larger property such as the entire MID conveyance system. Under NRHP Criterion B or CRHR Criterion 2, the MID Lateral No. 4 does not have any significant associations with the lives of persons important to history. Research did not identify any individuals with important associations to development of lateral, and its development does not appear to have been a significant personal achievement of any individual nor does it appear to be associated with an important individual in local, state, or national history. No major leaders or individuals important to the MID are associated with the lateral. It is not significant as an individual resource or as a contributor to a larger property such as the entire MID conveyance system. Under NRHP Criterion C or CRHR Criterion 3, the MID Lateral No. 4 is not significant because is it not an important example of a type, period, or method of construction. The lateral is of an example of a common property type and is does not represent a significant engineering design or introduce a design innovation into the overall irrigation system. The lateral also lacks artistic value that would merit listing in the NRHP or CRHR and there are no master architects or builders associated with the lateral. It is not significant as an individual resource or as a contributor to a larger property such as the entire MID conveyance system. Under NRHP Criterion D or CRHR Criterion 4, the MID Lateral No. 4 is not significant as a source (or likely source) of important information regarding history. It does not appear to have any likelihood of yielding important information about historic construction materials or technologies. It is not significant as an individual resource or as a contributor to a larger property such as the entire MID conveyance system. Archaeological investigations completed as part of the NRHP Criterion D and CRHR Criterion 4 evaluations are included in a separate archaeological technical report for this project. In conclusion, although the MID Lateral No. 7 retains some elements of integrity, it does not meet NRHP or CRHR criteria and is not a historical resource for the purposes of CEQA. No local register criteria for the City of Modesto or Stanislaus County were identified. Because the canal as a whole does not appear to be register eligible, the evaluated segment would not contribute to the larger resource. * B14. Evaluator: K.

Description: When originally recorded in 1991, the 9th and Needham Street Commercial Area was a six-block area with eight post commercial buildings constructed to serve the traffic on 9th Street, which was formerly U.S. Highway 99, and is now designated State Route (SR)-99. Field survey as part of this evaluation determined that two of these buildings have been demolished. The other six buildings and structures include a gas station constructed in 1965, a motel constructed in 1964, an office building constructed in 1980, two warehouses constructed in 1956 and 1962, and Bridge 38C0062. The 1991 study of the 9th and Needham Street Commercial Area includes the bridge in its inventory and evaluation of post-1945 properties, however, the Caltrans Statewide Historic Bridge Inventory Update (Hope 2005) indicates Bridge 38C0062 was constructed in It is a concrete slab bridge on 8th and 9th Streets that crosses the Modesto Irrigation District Lateral No. 4.

When originally recorded, the area included eight post-1945 commercial buildings and structures in an 8-block area and two of those buildings have since been demolished. Extant properties include a bridge constructed in1914 that was constructed to allow 8th and 9th streets to cross an irrigation canal and five commercial properties constructed between 1956 and 1980, which are associated with commercial development along 9th Street and the railroad alignment. The bridge was constructed much earlier and has no association with the buildings and the buildings all appear to have lost integrity of design, materials, and workmanship. None of the buildings and structures were the first ones constructed in the area and do not reflect important pattern of events associated with the establishment or growth of the community. Under NRHP Criterion B or CRHR Criterion 2, the 9th and Needham Commercial Area is not significant for any associations with the lives of persons important to history. Research did not identify any individuals with important associations to development of the commercial area as a whole, and its development does not appear to have been a significant personal achievement of any individual nor does it appear to be associated with an important individual in local, state, or national history. It is representative of a mid-twentieth century commercial area and is not illustrative of the productive lives of any individuals. Under NRHP Criterion C or CRHR Criterion 3, the 9th and Needham Commercial Area is not significant because it is not an important example of a type, period, or method of construction. Bridge 38C0062 is a simple, concrete slab roadway bridge and Caltrans previously evaluated it as a Category 5 and not eligible. The buildings are examples of common, utilitarian architecture, and all have lost integrity of design, materials, and workmanship. The bridge and buildings lack high artistic value that would merit listing in the NRHP or CRHR and there are no master architects or builders associated with the buildings and structures. Under NRHP Criterion D or CRHR Criterion 4, the 9th and Needham Commercial Area is not significant as a source (or likely source) of important information regarding history.

Werness initially inventoried this property in 1978 for the report titled An Architectural Survey of the San Joaquin Valley. The property was unevaluated. In 1999, Michael Darcangelo of Far Western Anthropological Research Group re-inventoried and evaluated the property for the report titled Cultural Resources Survey for the Level (3) Communications Long Haul Fiber Optics Project (Nelson and Carpenter 2000). The DPR 523 Series forms completed in 1999 are attached. Darcangelo evaluated the as eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The Historic Property Data File provided by the Central Coastal Information Center (CCIC) indicates that Resource P was assigned Status Code 2S2, which means the Modesto SPRR Depot was determined eligible for the NRHP by a consensus through the Section 106 process. The depot also was previously recorded under P under the name Railway Express Agency. The DPR 523 form was not obtained, but the Historic Property Data File provided by the Central Coastal Information Center (CCIC) indicates that Resource P was assigned Status Code 7J, which means that the evaluation was received by the Office of Historic Preservation but had yet to be evaluated. The depot also was previously recorded as resource P The DPR 523 form was not obtained, but the Historic Property Data File provided by the Central Coastal Information Center (CCIC) indicates that Resource P was assigned Status Code 2S, which means that the depot was determined eligible for the NRHP by the Keeper of the NRHP. The Modesto Southern Pacific Railroad Depot also was added to the California Historic Resources Inventory (HRI) in 1983 under HRI# and listed as a City of Modesto Landmark Preservation Site in Prior studies did not include a formal evaluation of the property s eligibility for the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR) or as a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) historical resource. After review of the previous recordation and a current field check, AECOM concludes that the Modesto SPRR Depot retains the level of integrity of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association it had at the time of last recordation, meets the criteria for listing in the NRHP, CRHR, and local register, and the building is an historical resource for the purposes of CEQA. The structure has been evaluated in accordance with Section (a)(2)-(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, using the criteria outlined in Section of the California Public Resources Code. The boundary for the historic property/historical resource is its legal parcel. Historic Context Modesto s history, growth, and development have been linked to the railroad since the late 1800s. The development of the railroad and irrigation districts spurred the agricultural economy by providing easy passenger travel and an efficient commercial transport of goods to and from large urban centers such as San Francisco and Sacramento. Construction of the Southern Pacific Railroad s San Joaquin Valley mainline, originally known as the San Joaquin Valley Railroad, began in 1869, branching off the transcontinental line at the newly established town of Lathrop in San Joaquin County. In the northern San Joaquin Valley, the railroad was located between the San Joaquin River and Sierra Nevada foothills; to the south, the line followed the eastern side of the plains. From 1870 to 1880, the San Joaquin Valley population increased by 40 percent (US Census 1900), and Southern Pacific established 50 stations in the Valley, 24 of which became town sites. Eight of those sites became major towns, including Modesto, Turlock, and Merced (Carothers 1934; Angermeir 1968; Smith 1976). The Modesto SPRR Depot, located at the intersection of J and ninth streets was constructed in The building was constructed in the Mission style, a popular style for railroad buildings in the southwest during the early twentieth century. Rail service along to this location was discontinued and the building became a bus transportation center in Mission Revival Architecture Mission Revival architecture, most popular between 1890 and 1920, is typically one- or two-story symmetrical or asymmetrical, houses characterized by stucco walls; low-pitched red barrel tile roofs with overhanging eaves, porch roofs supported by large square piers, commonly arched above; Mission shaped dormer or roof parapets; arcaded entry porch piers, quatrefoil windows, and Islamic ornament (McAlester 1984).

Significance (continued): Evaluation * Resource Name or #: (Assigned by recorder): Modesto Southern Pacific Railroad Depot Map ID #:32 Continuation Update Under NRHP Criterion A and CRHR Criterion 1, the Modesto SPRR Depot has significant associations with important events. The depot is representative and an important element of the San Joaquin Valley Railroad (SPRR San Joaquin Valley Mainline), which is significant as one of the first railroads in the San Joaquin Valley and was instrumental in the development of agriculture, the mainstay of the local economy. The railroad also led to the founding of Modesto. Therefore, the Modesto SPRR Depot is eligible for the NRHP and CRHR under Criterion A and Criterion 1, respectively, as an individual resource and as a contributor to a larger historical resource (such as the entire San Joaquin Valley Railroad, if such a resource is ever found to exist). Under NRHP Criterion B and CRHR Criterion 2, the Modesto Southern Pacific Railroad Depot is not significant for any associations with the lives of persons important to history. The depot likely was designed and constructed by SPRR employees and does not illustrate an important achievement associated with an individual from the community or the railroad. The depot does not appear to be a prominent achievement of any individual and research did not identify any associated individuals that made important contributions to history at the local, state, or national level. Significant individuals who may have used the depot during the period of significance or executives from SPRR do not appear to have had a substantial or important association with the building. Under NRHP Criterion C and CRHR Criterion 3, this building is significant because it is an important example of a type, period, or method of construction: Mission Revival style architecture. Although the Mission Revival style buildings proliferated twentieth century California suburbs and were a common style used in railroad buildings in the southwest, the Modesto SPRR Depot is an excellent example reflecting the twentieth century trends of this style because of its shaped parapets, tile roof, and arcaded facade. The building on this parcel retains distinctive design elements that would merit listing on the NRHP and CRHR. There is no master architect or builder associated with this building; therefore, it is not significant as the work of a master. Under NRHP Criterion D and CRHR Criterion 4, this building is not significant as a source (or likely source) of important information regarding history. It does not appear to have any likelihood of yielding important information about historic construction materials or technologies. Archaeological investigations completed as part of the NRHP Criterion D and CRHR Criterion 4 evaluations are included in a separate archaeological technical report for this project. Integrity Location is the place where the historic property was constructed or the place where the historic event took place. The location of the Modesto SPRR Depot has remained the same, and it has not been moved since its construction. The integrity of the property s location remains intact. Design is the combination of elements that create the form, plan, space, and style of a property. The Modesto SPRR Depot has undergone expansion since its original construction in However, the building addition does not appear to have compromised the building s overall design. Therefore, the Modesto Southern Pacific Railway Depot retains its integrity of design. Setting is the physical environment of a historic property. The historic setting of the Modesto SPRR Depot has not changed significantly since the buildings were constructed. The building retains integrity of setting. Materials are the physical elements that were combined or deposited during a particular period of time and in a particular pattern of configuration to form a historic property. As stated above, the Modesto SPRR Depot has been modified since the original construction. The Modesto SPRR Depot retains a moderate level of integrity of materials. Workmanship is the physical evidence of the crafts of a particular culture or people during any given period in history or prehistory. The Modesto SPRR Depot has not been substantially altered since its construction in 1915 and retains the appearance of an early twentieth century railroad depot. Therefore, it retains integrity of workmanship. Feeling is a property s expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular period of time. The present state of the building conveys the property s character and historic integrity of feeling as an early-twentieth century railway depot. The overall integrity of the property s feeling remains intact. DPR 523L (1/95) * Required information

The segment of the TSR railroad within the ACE Extension CEQA Study Area in Modesto was initially inventoried and evaluated by JRP Historical Consultants in 1994 for the Mojave Natural Gas Pipeline Northern Extension Project. The segment was recorded as UP-2 and was evaluated as not eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) (JRP Historical Consultants 1994; see attached Feature Form). The eligibility of the railroad segment for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR) or as a CEQA historical resource was not evaluated. After review of the previous recordation and current field check and research, the present evaluation concludes that the railroad segment does not appear to meet the criteria for listing in the NRHP or the CRHR and is not a historical resource for purposes CEQA. No local register criteria were identified. The railroad segment has been evaluated in accordance with Section (a)(2)-(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, using the criteria outlined in Section of the California Public Resources Code. Stockton investor, Byron Bearce, organized the TSR in 1910 to construct an electric railroad from Stockton to Fresno with possible connections to Bakersfield and the Pacific coast in Ventura County. The TSR began laying track north from Turlock and south from Stockton. The mainline between Stockton and Modesto was completed as a conventional steam railroad in 1912 and electrified one year later. The southern branch from Modesto to Turlock was completed in 1916 and another branch to Manteca was constructed as part of the railway s initial construction. Neither of the branch lines was ever electrified, and the railway was never expanded beyond these branch lines. The TSR offered extensive passenger service on its mainline between Stockton and Modesto, which featured electrified locomotives powered by overhead wires. Freight service was only offered on the Turlock and Manteca branch lines. In 1917, the Western Pacific Railroad (WPRR) purchased a controlling interest in the TSR as part of its expansion program, which was designed to extend the railroad s market by acquiring existing short lines that could operate as feeders to the WPRR mainline. WPRR gradually transformed the TSR from its original electric interurban configuration to a conventional or steam-powered railroad. In 1932, the WPRR discontinued all passenger service on the TSR and began dismantling the electric overheads between Stockton and Modesto. The electric lines continued to be used in Modesto until 1946, when the last lines were removed. After World War II, the WPRR began abandoning some of its branch lines as part of its effort to upgrade the mainline long-haul fright traffic. The WPRR replaced steam locomotives with diesel, which required the installation of heavier rail and most of the track was replaced after The Manteca Branch was abandoned, but the mainline and the Turlock branch continued to be used. Today the trackway is in use by the UPRR (JRP Historical Consultants 1994). The segment of the TSR in the ACE Extension CEQA Study Area in Modesto is part of the TSR Modesto to Turlock branch line that was completed in The tracks likely were replaced following World War II to accommodate diesel locomotives. The tracks were again replaced sometime after 1966 and currently appear to be fully modernized (JRP Historical Consultants 1994). Evaluation Under NRHP Criterion A or CRHR Criterion 1, the segment of the TSR has no significant association with important historic events. Although the segment was constructed as a branch line to one of only a few interurban electric train lines in the San Joaquin Valley, the Turlock Branch was never electrified and was used for freight only throughout its history. In addition, the line was rebuilt to accommodate diesel engines after World War II and the current track is fully modernized. The segment of the railway in the CEQA Study Area has no significant association with the mainline s early history and has lost integrity of setting, design, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. Therefore, the segment of the TSR is not eligible for the NRHP or CRHR under Criterion A or Criterion 1 as an individual resource or as a contributor to a larger historical resource (such as the entire TSR). Under NRHP Criterion B or CRHR Criterion 2, the railroad segment is not significant for any associations with the lives of persons important to history. The railroad does not appear to have been a prominent achievement of a specific individual. The organizer of the railway, Byron Bearce, was only associated with the constructed railway for about five years before it was sold to the WPRR. Individuals that worked on the construction of the railroad segments have not been identified. Numerous people worked to construct the railroad segments and properties of this type generally lack the ability to illustrate an individual s contribution to history. Individuals that constructed the railroad or were associated with the railroad during its period of significance had short associations with the railroad and would not illustrate any type of achievements significant to the past. Therefore, the segment of the TSR is not eligible for the NRHP or CRHR under Criterion B or Criterion 2 as an individual resource or as a contributor to a larger historical resource (such as the entire TSR).

Description: The UPRR Tuolumne River Bridge carries the UPRR (formerly the SPRR) over the Tuolumne River in the city of Modesto in Stanislaus County. The SPRR constructed the bridge in 1897 to replace an earlier structure constructed in the 1870s. The bridge is a deck plate girder truss bridge with ballast deck approach spans and timber rails. The substructure primarily consists of timber pile bents with concrete bent caps with five stone masonry piers and one stone masonry abutment on the south end of the bridge. The bridge has a 15-footwide deck and is approximately 1,240 feet long (Bridgehunter.com 2016; Snyder 1991). The two original 1897 timber spans are riveted deck girder spans measuring 60'-6" and 50'. Both were constructed by the Phoenix Bridge Company. In 1944 and 1945, the original timber spans were rebuilt, and three new main spans were installed. The three new spans included one 59'-10" riveted deck girder span built in 1944 by the Pacific Bridge Company, which was relocated to its current location from the Feather River, and two 100'-6" riveted deck girder spans built by Bethlehem Steel Company (Snyder 1991). Much of the bridge appears to have been upgraded and improved sometime in the last 25 years. * P3b. Resource Attributes: HP19 Bridge P5a. Photograph: Photograph 1.

79 r...>u- UUUJ/ 2> SITE NAME: Ceres Main Canal, Turlock Irrigation District, Stan1slaus Coumy SITE NUMBER: KT-8 QUAD SHEET: " Ceres Quadrangle," USGS: 1969, photorev1sed 1987 PIPELINE LOCATION: M ilepost 197.9, M ainline DP.!lcriotion of Feature Site KT-8 is located at the po1nt where Turlock lrrigiltion District' s Ceres Main Canal crosses t he proposed Mojave Pipeline project APE, immediat ely northeast of the junction of Mitchell and Redwood roads and east of Highway 9 9, on the edge of the town of Ceres. This site, with its comparison pomts KT-8(n) and KT 8(s). is located in a mixed agncultural and industrial area of Stanislaus County. JRP recorded the two companson sites to better place KT-28 rn context and consider the lateral' s integnty. The Ceres M ain Canal rece1ves water from the Turlock Main Canal just west of Hickman, then flows w est to the town of Ceres. It then turns south and supplies the district' s lower laterals. The canal also connects with the district' s upper lateral system and t ransfers availnble water from the upper 1nto the lower laterals. KT-8 is located JUSt to the west ot the free w ay, r<j ilroad. and the canal's confluence with Upper lalcral 2 1/2, and approximately a mile north of the junction o f the Ceres Main Upper lateral 2 (Photograph 1). KT-8 and it s comparison sites are located m an area of m1xed agricultural, residential. and commercial use. KT-8 is located at the southern end o f the point where the canal passes under the freeway and railroad. To the southwest of th1s site are orchards and an almond processing facility, while to the northwest is <1 vehicle yard and silo complex. To the southeast across the freeway are subdivisions. wh1le to northeast across the freeway is a sales yard. Site KT-8(sJ is completely surrounded by orchards, and ts located at the junct1on of Upper lateral 2 w ith the Cares Main Canal (Photograph 3 of Site LG-28). Comparison site KT-8{n) is located w hore Service ROfui crosses the Ceres M ain Canal, in an area of small agricultural parcels with homes (Photograph 21. History of Feature The Ceres Ma111 Canal ts a central feature of the Turlock lrrigatton Distnct's original d1strrbut ion system. TID s one of the f11st Wnght Act d1stncts (along w ith Modesto lrrigat1on Distnct). For a brief history of the TID. see above Section 2.2. The distrrct began building its system i w hen it joined w ith the Modesto Irrigation District to build a diversion facility at La Grange on the Tuolumne River. Over tho next years the district constructed its main canal system and began work on its laterals. Internal dissention n the district caused marn canal construction progress to move forward slowly. By /\pril 1894, TID had underway plann1ng and prelin1inary work on the district canal and irrigauon system. Besides tile m ain headwork at the dam and canals. flu111es and tunnels to reach Hickman, where the main canal then terminated, laterals would have to be dug in what the d1stnct engineer described as -ground easily scraped." The rna in canal w ould run almost due south f rom Hickman f or 18 miles, nearly to the Merced River. with laterals serv1ng separate areas. Tile m ain canal terminated w ith it s d1v1sion inlo the Turlock and Ceres main cnnals. (Modesto Daily Even1ng N~. A pril ) Later that summer

80 ? - vcj-vuuv/..:) TID's directors accepted a bid from Doe, Hunt & Co. of San Francisco ro complete the TID canal system, wl1o began work rn June However, by August, worked stopped br.r.flltse the district had no money to pay their contractors. (Stflnislaus County Weekly News M ay ; June 8, 1894; June 20, 1894; July 23, 1894) For the next few years the district struggled to build its system, and by the end of 1898 TID had finished its main canal suffrciently far to sond of water 23 miles from La Grange to Hickman. (Modesto Q.e.i!y Evening News November 1 2, 1898; Stanis laps County Weekly News November 18, 1090). TID begarr irrigation in the spring o f (Stanislaus County W eekly News, M arch 16, 1900). Accordrng to the district, the Ceres Main Canal, and all related laterals, was in place by 1904!Glauser, July 12, 1993). Shortly thereafter the system was described as a marn canal reachrng about 25 miles from the drversron dam, connecting with the Turlock M arn and Ceres M ain canals, each "about 35 miles long and ea ch system having seven laterals aggregtiling over 100 miles in length." The main canals and portions of the latcrols were contracted out rn units.! Elias, 1924: 63) During the 1920s and 1930s the district undertook a program of canal and laterallinrng. Asphalt proved impractical, and eventually The district turned to concrete lining. In later years the canals and laterals have also been gu11ited. In July 1993 the district described changes to their laterals: Since the date of first construction of the canals the Drstrict has conducted routine maintenance and significant upgrades of its water delivery systems. A lthough the canals were orrgrn ally constructed near the turn oi the r.entury tlley have been improved over tt1e years with the additron of m odern structures and surface hnrng to improve flow capacity, improve hydraulic control, and improve customer service. Alignments have been changed, cross sections have been rncreased, drop structures have been inst alled and improved, and the location of The original turnouts has been changed. The only remnant ol the original canal is probobly t he name of the canal... (Glauser, July ) Comparison of historic and modern maps indicates that the Ceres Marn Canal is, at KT-8 and the comparison points. in its orrginal location. Field inspection of the three sites show that i11 crll c;;ses the Ceres Main Canal has been lined with concrete, in two of the three locations as recently as the 1980s. When the Cdllals were lined, older control structures were redesigned as can be seen within the APE where standardized lateral hcadgates were 1ntegrated into the canal's concrete embankment (Photogreph 3). Evaluation of Fea ture The Turlock Irrigation District's Ceres Main Canal at s1te KT-8 rs part of the original irrigation system of one ol Calilornia's first Wrrght Act irrigation districts. It has played a significant role in tho agricultuml development of the area rt serves, and is sufficiently old t o be considered for the Natr ona!

Its period o f signifir.ance. therefore, dates to the tim e of i ts original constructron, ca At that time the lateral was dirt lined and ran through an

Since that time, however, the lat eral has lost rntegrrty of design, workm anship, materials. setting. and foaling o wing t o the drstric L's lining p rojects and the i n ~ tall a t io n of the freeway, electric trarr slllission lines on both banks of the canal, modern bridges and culverts after the period of significance. It no longer run~ through an area typified by widely scattered farmsteads. because with the passage time, and with construction of Highway 99 came denser non-agricultural development. Furthermore, because lined irrigation canals are common features in the San Joaquin Valley, the Ceres M ain Canal cannot be considered o unique example of a segm ent of an early irrigation syst em And thus does not meet Criterion C. IL is not eligible for the National Register.

The segment of the canal recorded begins where the Union PacifiL railroad interseds Lateral No. 2 and continues west until Carpenter Road. This portion of Lateral No. 2 connects on the eastern end at the Ceres!\ lain Canal and Laird Slough on U1e western end. At Crow's Landing, Lateral No.2 is called Lower Lateral No.2. Lateral No.2 was completed (Paterson 1989). Originally, Lateral No.2 was an open dirt canal which was constructed by Fresno scrapers. Parts of the T ID canals were lined with cobbles after initial construction to improve water flo w. Begi1ming in the 1920's the T ID began a long-te rm program of canal improvement that focused on the installation of concrete lining which would improve water flow, reduce loss from seepage, and reduce maintenance. The easternmost section of Lateral No. 2 that is recorded here is located between the Union Pacific Railroad!me and Crow's Landing Road and was lined w ith concrete in Approximately one mile west of Craw's Landing Road at Ustick Road, the concrete lining was ij1stalled by Concrete lining was installed in La teral No. 2 at Carpenter Road by 196-l. Even with this concrete lining, irrigation canals require maintenance and repair on a periodic basis. Several patched crad.. s were observed along this late ral. In a ddition to the actual canal, the recorded segment of Lateral No. 2 indudes several check dams: D7, D8, D9, DIO, and 011. P3b.

Lilkrill No. 2/ I.ower I ateral No. 2 *Recorded by: N Lawson oate: 3/16/09!2J Continuation 0 Update Historic Context The Central Valley is ddined historically by agriculture and transportation. The area around!\.1odesto and Ceres is no exception. In addition to the railroads, such as the Ccntral Pacific and the Western Pacific, ferries serviced the area via several ferry landings and the Tuolum1w and tht.> San joaquin Rivers. Thc road that would eventually become State Route 99 was planned and permitted in tilt.' late 1800's, although the paved highway was not completed until "1968. Ceres was first settled in 1870 and by 1872, the CPRR stopped at Ceres. Wheat was plantt:'d on thousands of acres in the region. The settlement of Crow's Landing was founded by J.B. Crow, one of the first wheat growers in the area Crow establislwd a landing on the San Joaquin River to ship his wheat to market and Crow and his two partners operated a ferry at that landing from 1870 until 1885 (Napton 1991). Crow's Landing Road repret:.ents the original road which connected two ferries, the Davis and Maze's h?rry on thf' Tuolumne and the Fairbank's Ferry on the San Joaquin. This main road was establisht"d in HFO. Several ~mall taverns were constructed along this main road and Sl'rved as way stations for (Brotherton 1982). Hot dry summers and over cultivated lands madt;> \Vht"at growing less and less prospnous as tht.' 19th century drew to a close. [n 1887, the \Nright bill, a bill that proposed the creation of irrigation districts in California, passed the California &:>natl' and Assembly and was signed into law by then Governor \Vashington Bartlett. l,ocal irrigation districts, including the TID and thl' Modesto Irrigation District (MID), created water conveyance systems in the early 1900s and started the flow of water into the arf'a. Farmers bc>gan to diversify thl ir crops and experimented with fruit and nut trees that did not requin... as much water as wheat. Thl' combinr d efforts of the TID and the MID resulted in the construction of the La Grange Dam in tsy:t The promise of watn and cheap land brought an influx of settlers into the area. Expanding rail lines and ferry SL'rvkt> made travt>l into the rt>gion easier. In 1900, the area was still a big grain farming rl'gion. Irrigation, howl'vc r, allowed the planting of orchards, vineyards, and row crops vvhich were better suited to farmers able to dt'votl' a h'w acrl's cmd put considerabk effort into them rather than to the large grain fields planted and harvested by transit"nl hired hands. Small farms nwant mon' people, more towns, dnd more trade. This vision of irrigation propelled the local crusade for the Wright Act and became a part of the national reclamation movenwnt for a fedl'ral irrigation program. In 1901, only 3700 acres vve-fl' irrigated by the TID in the northern part of thp district. A scant two years latn 10,000 acres wnc> irrigatc>d and by 1908, the Till provided wakr to almost SH,Illlll acres (llohmthal 1971 :207). Settlers to the area, unless they bought property adjacc nt to the TID canals, faced the prospect of creating ditches which connected to tlw lateral canals of the TID. Farmers depended on the so-called community ditch system to connect their farms to the water supply. The community ditches, hundreds of miles of them wen.' built and maintained by the irrigators u~ing them, generally without any formdl organization. Once water reached a farm, it could be sent into crop fields in a number of ways. One was called "wild flooding". ln this method, supply ditches running along thf' high ground were temporarily dammed to divert small streams into field ditches dug down the slopes. These smaiipr ditches wc rc pluggni at intervals to forn' water out onto the field, letting the water flood down the hill without restraint. Another method, furrow irrigation, sent a small head of watpr through thp rows of crops or orchards. The check method of flooding and its variants divilkd tht... land into a series of levd basins or checks that were surrounded by levt.'t.'s. A large fknv of water was turned into each check until the an... a was just covered hy water. By the time irrigation reached the TID area, the standard practict.' \Vas to create checks of up to ont.' acre (Paterson 1989: In). The TID system began a revolution in the region's agriculture. The systt.'m formed the basis for new industries and caused the reduction in the size of landholdings as the large ranches of the late 1800~ were broken into small parct ls with dairies, orchards, and row crops. New tlnvns were founded and wheat was replaced by mdon~, grapes, and peaches. DPR 523L (1/95) Required informat1on

Lateral No. 2/l.owcr Lateral No.2 Recorded by: N Lawson oate: 3/16/09 IZJ Continuation D Update New settlers in the area first planted alfalfa, raised a few dairy cows, and sold cream to the nearest creamery. Others raised poultry. Both practices realhly raised needed cash. In the first few years of irrigation in the TID, alfalfa was the main crop. It grew readily, could usually be cut twice in its first year and would yield about four cuttings annually thereafter, thus producing approximately five to six tons of good quality hay per acre. Alfalfa acreage peaked in 1914 at approximately 72 percent of the acreage, or 6R,OOO acres, in the TID. It rapidly decreased in acreage, accounting for less than 11,000 acres in RetwPen 1911 and 1925, tlw Turlock \Vas callpd the Watermelon Capitol of the \Vorld_ After thp lowering of the water table, however, the melon boom in the TID quickly faded. For a time, grapes were a major fruit crop of the rl gion following thl' decline of melons. Orchard land reached just over 5000 acres in 1920 and grew to 11,500 acres in Although the acreage devoted to grapes declined for a time in the 1910's, ultimately acreage devoted to vineyards grc'w again until the 1970s (Hohenthall971: 214) By 1912, the Tidewater Southern Railroad connt..'cted T'v1odesto with Stockton. This line operated as a freight feeder system and connected with the \Vestern Pacific Railroad at Mantl'Ca Junction. Modesto was connectc'd with Turlock via rail by 19"16 (Paterson 19R9) providing easy accl'ss to rail lines for local growns. J\ rise in canneries throughout the region provided convienient buy('ts for local fruit and vegetable sellers who, prior to the o~wning of the camwries had to haul their figs, apricots, and peaches to San Jose or Santa Clara for processing. The main Turlock diversion canal leads from the La Grange Dam along the south bank of the Tuolumne River for approximatpiy 7 miles to Turlock Lakf', historically kmnvn as lhven Reservoir. The Main Supply Canal diverts near the western end of Turlock I,ake, and carries water to the northeastt>rn edge of the TID. At this point, the Ceres Main Canal carries the water west to the highland above the TuolumnL' channel and south through the center of the TID. The Turlock Main Canal diverst at the same gate as the Ceres T'vlain, flows south for approximatc'!y 10 milcs, and thr n the main laterals divert the water at intervals of two and three miels, running west to the San Joaquin River (I Iohcnthal 1972). Until the late 1930's, concrete lining predominiltcd canal improvement work. By 194-0, only 20 miles of the 132 mill's of im provni community ditches had pipelin('s. J)u ring the grm..ving season, a short stretch of concrete lining was removed from a community ditch to make way for underground pipe and from this project, the trend continued. By 1951, the local improvement districts had more milt's of pipeline than concrete lined open canals. The TID canals, howt>ver, remained open canals. By 2002, only 3 miles of the 250 miles of TID canals have been replaced with pipeline (TID documents). Local community ditches, however, have been largely replaced with underground pipe line, and only the relk f standpipes and gatl structures of thl'se underground lines are visible (Paterson 19H9:261). Period of Significance From the standpoint of agriculture, which was the primary occupation of the people that settled the TID region, the years from 1900 to 1920 were the ones of growth and devpiopmcnt. ThPse WE're thr pioneering times when many families livetwd in onl' end of a barn while their cattle resided in the other end until the family could afford a barn and a house. \Vorld War I brought a shcup incn.'dse in the prin~ of agricultural products and the local gross farm income soared from 14,300,000 dollars in 1910 to 34,204-,000 dollars in Prices crashed in 1920 and did not recover until \Norld \!Var II (llolwnthal-1972: 2-17). Lateral No.2 was completed in 1R99, thus making irrigation agriculture and farm sdtlement possible. Although the latt'ral wa~ completed in 1R99, the first irrigation waters did not flow until1900. Using 1900 to 1920 as the period of significance effectively captures the important historical context of the historic built environment in the immediate project area. Buildings, farms, and associated outbuildings were constructed in direct response to the presencp of Lateral No. 2 and the sale of smaller parcl'ls, such as 40, 60, and RO acres. DPR 523L 11/95)..

Repairs and upgrades to the check dams and flow controls along the canal have occurred over the decades, as well The canal segment recorded here possesses integrity of loccttion, as it is in the same location as when it was originally constructed in However, the canal only retains some integrity of setting. Although a part of the area of the recorded canal segment rpm a ins predominately rural farmland, sevl'ral post 1920 structures are located in the vicinity of the canal, including industrial and agri-businl ss ckvelopmt._ nt. Additional roads cross the canal and The canal has sustained a loss of inll'grity of matl rials and \-vorkmanship as it is no longer an open earth canal, but rather lined vvith concrete which has been continually repaired and maintained. Also, although the check dams rl'tain much of thl'ir original construction, all have been upgraded and modnn metal bridges have bpen added at each dam. The canal segment does retains some integrity of as~ocidtion, as the canol segnwnt is still used for irrigation. Since the materials and workmanship of this canal segment have been replaced with morp modern materidls, the carmi no longer retdins integrity of feeling of the TID area bt~fore This rl'coflied segment does not rl'tdin the l'ssential physical features U1at made ups its character or appearance during the period of it.". association. The canal segment being a VPry small part of a much larger edna! system, does not itself convey clear associdtion with significant trt>nds in agriculturc' on a national level (Critt rion i\), nor is it associated with individuals that made a significant contribution to history at the local, statp or national )('vpl (Critl"rion B). The canal segment is not an important example of a type or nwthod of construction (t 'ritcrion C) and because of repeated repair<; and extc'nsivc upgrades, it can not sl'rve as a source of import,mt information about historic canal construction or technology (Criterion D). Thus, this segment does not appl'dr to meet the criteria for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.

Other Locational Data: Intersects State Route (SR) 99 northeast of the intersection of Prairie Flower Road and Esmar Road about two miles southeast of Ceres in Stanislaus County * P3a. Description: This update form was completed for an approximately 0.25-mile-long segment of the Turlock Irrigation District (TID) Upper Lateral No. 2½, which is within and immediately adjacent to the ACE Extension California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Study Area in a mixed agricultural, industrial, and residential area. The segment trends northeast to southwest and extends from a point just northeast of Rohde Road, which serves as a frontage road for SR 99, to a point northeast of the intersection of Prairie Flower Road and Esmar Road. Northeast of Rohde Road, the lateral is lined with concrete. The lateral transitions from an open lateral to a buried siphon through a 1-by-2-foot, board-formed concrete headwall in the dirt shoulder on the northeast side of Rohde Road. The siphon passes beneath Rohde Road and SR 99, rises into a basin, and then passes under the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) in a second siphon for a distance of approximately 415 feet (0.08 mile). Southwest of the UPRR alignment, the recorded segment of the lateral surfaces and continues southwest toward Prairie Flower Road in a concrete-lined channel. The lateral is piped through a culvert under Prairie Flower Road, but emerges as an open concrete-lined lateral west of the roadway. The headwall for the culvert, which is within the recorded segment, has the same design as the headwall at Rohde Road. The lateral is approximately 15 feet wide and about 5 feet deep. * P3b.
