FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
DATE: July 28, 1992
SUBJECT: Approve Easement Agreement with the United States of America.
Project No.: 0662-6R4103-92, Willow Pass Road Bridge
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) &BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. Recommended Action:
A. APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Chair of the Board of Supervisors to execute United
States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) Contract Easement No. 1-07-20-1-5548 for the
widening of Willow Pass Road over the Contra Costa Canal at Milepost 20.96 in West
Pittsburg.
B. AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director to pay $2,726.65 to USBR for document
preparation, and $45,000 to the Contra Costa Water District for future additional canal
operational and maintenance costs resulting from the road widening over the canal.
II. Financial Impact:
There will be no cost to the County General Fund. Funding will be paid by Contra Costa
Transportation Authority Measure "C" funds.
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
This easement agreement is necessary since the new State Route 4/Willow Pass Road
Interchange will require realignment of Willow Pass Road over the Contra Costa Canal in West
Pittsburg. The operation and maintenance fee results from the new bridge construction over the
outlet of the box culvert syphon. This makes operation and maintenance activities more difficult.
The fee also includes estimated additional labor costs necessary to work under the bridge when
replacing the canal lining..
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
Without the agreement, the Contra Costa Water District will not issue a permit to the contractor
to construct.-the bridge required for the realignment of Willow Pass Road.
