A. On April 10, 2007, the Board of Supervisors declared an emergency and authorized the Chief Engineer to
proceed in the most expeditious manner to repair or replace the Lower Walnut Creek flood control,facility as
directed by the US Army Corps of Engineers.
B. Repair- status:

Creek Corrective Action.Plan and presented it to the US Anny Corps of Engineers for consideration on June 11.,
2007. A status report,including this Corrective Action Plan.(CAP),was presented to the Transportation,Water
and Infi=astructLire Committee on June 25,.2007. Project plans were prepared and the District contracted with
Pacific States Environmental Consultants to construct the first phase of the Lower Walnut Creek Interim
Protection Measures project pursuant to the CAP. This first phase of the project was completed in early
.December 2007. However,additional work is required to frilly implement the CAP.

of the CAP will not be known until completion of the federal review. .
