SUBJECT: Requesting Corps of Engineers Expedite Wildcat-San Pablo Creek's
Project Environmental Impact Statement recirculation process,
Richmond-San Pablo area, Project No. 7505-6F8186.
WHEREAS the Chief Engineer has received a letter from the Corps
of Engineers indicating that the Environmental Impact Statement for the
Wildcat-San Pablo Creeks Project is to be recirculated and that said
recirculation is scheduled to be completed in August 1986; and
WHEREAS the Chief Engineer has reported that the amount of time
allowed to complete said recirculation is excessive, that the August 1986
completion date places the project in jeopardy for a 1986 construction
start, and that staff, the Corps of Engineers, regulatory agencies and
environmental groups have all been working together to resolve the environ-
mental impacts from the project; and
WHEREAS the proposed improvements are sorely needed to eliminate
the flooding problem which is a continual social and economic drain on the
community and the community strongly supports the project.

Supervisors of Contra Costa County and as the Governing Board of Contra
Costa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, hereby REQUESTS
