Meeting Date:11/09/2020 Subject:Northern Waterfront Short-Line Railroad Feasibility Study Submitted For: TRANSPORTATION, WATER & INFRASTRUCTURE COMMITTEE, Department:Conservation & Development Referral No.: 15 Referral Name: Freight transportation issues, including freight issues related to the Northern Waterfront. Presenter: Robert Sarmiento, DCD Contact: Robert Sarmiento (925)674-7822 Referral History: At its October 9, 2017 meeting, TWIC approved the submission of a grant application, “Feasibility of a Short-Line Railroad in the Northern Waterfront,” for the Planning and Local Technical Assistance Program to the United States Economic Development Administration (EDA) to study a short-line railroad in the Northern Waterfront. The Board of Supervisors approved the submission of the grant application to the EDA at its February 6, 2018, meeting. In May 2018, the County was awarded $37,500 in grant funding to develop the Northern Waterfront Short-Line Railroad Feasibility Study ("Study") (Exhibit A). Referral Update: The Draft Final Study evaluates the feasibility of implementing a short-line railroad in the Wilbur Avenue Corridor (“Study Area”), which encompasses an area from the Fulton Shipyard in Antioch east to the Contra Costa Logistics Center in Oakley, and from the waterfront south to about 18 th Street in Antioch. The short-line railroad would transport goods between businesses located in the Study Area and the nearby Class I railroads *. The Study consists of three parts: Assessment of Existing Conditions,1. Market Analysis, and2. Findings and Conclusions3. The Assessment of Existing Conditions (“Assessment”) analyzes four components: Engineering Feasibility,1. Environmental Concerns,2. Commercial/Economic Development Conditions, and3. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 8 of 139 Transportation System4. The Assessment identifies five parcels along the waterfront in the Study Area, which were previously served by railroads, that have the greatest potential to be developed as railroad-served businesses. The Assessment provides cost estimates to re-establish a rail connection to each of the five parcels. Four of the five parcels are currently in the process of environmental remediation. As parcels are developed, additional evaluation of the impact on wildlife would be needed. The Assessment determines that the existing businesses in the Study Area rely primarily on trucks to transport goods. Finally, the Assessment provides information on the existing roadway network, Class I railroads (Burlington Northern Santa Fe, or BNSF, and Union Pacific [UP] ), and maritime facilities in the Study Area, along with the goods movement that occur on each of these transportation facilities. The Market Analysis evaluates the following: Customer Types,1. Land Development Opportunities,2. Short-Line Railroad Operators, and3. Relationships with Class I Railroads4. The Market Analysis determines that businesses seeking a location with lower land and business costs and good connections with water, Class I railroads, and highways would be attracted to the parcels in the Study Area. For the five parcels that have the greatest potential for short-line railroad service, the Market Analysis provides details on each parcel's characteristics that make it attractive for business development. The Market Analysis identifies five short-line railroad operators that would be good candidates to serve a short-line railroad operation in the Study Area. The Market Analysis notes that BNSF does not support an independent short-line railroad operation in the Study Area, but instead prefers to provide in-house railroad service to the individual parcels in the Study Area. The Market Analysis determines that a new railroad connection from the UP railroad line just south of the Study Area would be too costly to build and limited in providing short-line railroad service in comparison to BNSF. The Findings and Conclusions include the following: A new independent short-line railroad operation is not feasible in the Study Area because of: 1) the lack of support from BNSF for an independent short-line railroad operation that would connect to its track, 2) the infeasibility of constructing a separate railroad line to connect the five parcels due to the lack of available right-of-way, and 3) the high cost to construct a new railroad connection from the UP line. A recommendation that City economic development staff establish ongoing communication with BNSF economic development staff to stay informed and coordinate on development opportunities that have potential railroad access in the Study Area. The County currently does not have any parcels in the Study Area with potential for a railroad connection to the BNSF line. County economic development staff could reach out to BNSF economic development staff in the future if a development opportunity arises in the Study Area that would be beneficial to both parties. Staff plans to present the Draft Final Study to the Northern Waterfront Ad Hoc Committee at its next meeting, as well as share with the City of Antioch and City of Oakley for their information. Subsequent to consideration by the cities, staff recommends that the Draft Final Study go to the Board of Supervisors for consideration. Otherwise, no further staff work is anticipated on this 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 9 of 139 issue as the short-line railroad was found to be infeasible. *Class I railroads are defined as railroad companies with an annual operating revenue greater than $490 million (in 2019). Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s): RECEIVE update on the Northern Waterfront Short-Line Railroad Feasibility Study, FORWARD the Study to the Board of Supervisors for acceptance or other action, and DIRECT staff as appropriate.

BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. Executive Summary Background As a result of the 2014 Northern Waterfront Economic Development Initiative, a Contra Costa County- led effort to create jobs along its waterfront, the Contra Costa County Department of Conservation and Development declared the need to commission a study that focused on the feasibility of a short-line railroad in the Northern Waterfront. The study will determine the feasibility of operating a short-line railroad in the Study Area, a corridor along Wilbur Avenue in Antioch and Oakley that includes a BNSF railroad line and several parcels with potential rail and waterfront access. The study includes: t an Assessment of Existing Conditions, t a Market Analysis, and t Findings and Conclusions regarding the Feasibility of Operating a Short-Line Railroad. Assessment of Existing Conditions The existing conditions assessment evaluates elements related to: 1) engineering feasibility, 2) environ- mental concerns, 3) commercial/economic development conditions, and 4) the transportation system as it relates to goods movement. Engineering Feasibility Five parcels in the Study Area, which previously enjoyed rail service, have the most potential to be devel- oped into businesses that could benefit from rail access in the future. A cost estimate was developed to determine the cost to re-establish rail service between the BNSF mainline and the property line of each of these parcels. Environmental Analysis An Environmental Due Diligence Review showed that soil and water contamination areas in GPVSPGUIF GJWF parcel are being remediated, allowing UIF siteT to be redeveloped in the future. An Ecological Evaluation determined that many sensitive bird and flower habitats in the Study Area would need to be studied in more detail before development could occur. Commercial/Economic Development Analysis Interviews, first, with economic development staff from Contra Costa County, the City of Antioch, and the City of Oakley, and second, with existing businesses and private stakeholders, resulted in identifying only one new potential rail customer- Amports, Inc. Transportation Analysis A goods movement analysis determined that most of the businesses within the Study Area are utilizing trucks to move both their inbound and outbound shipments. There is an excellent highway system close 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 14 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE iv PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. to the Study Area that provides trucks with efficient movement of goods thorough the Bay Area. Two Class 1 railroads serve Contra Costa County: the Burlington Northern-Santa Fe (BNSF), whose Stockton Subdivision mainline bisects the Study Area, and the Union Pacific Railroad (UP), whose Tracy Subdivision, which connects the City of Martinez with the City of Lathrop, runs just south of the Study Area, parallel to State Route 4 (SR 4). Ports and maritime activities still play an important goods movement role in Eastern Contra Costa County. A number of parcels in the Study Area have active maritime facilities. Market Analysis The market analysis evaluated the following: 1) Customer Types, 2) Land Development Opportunities, 3) Short-Line 3BJMSPBEOperators, and 4) Relationships with Class I Railroads. Customer Types The waterfront along the Study Area, with its access to rail, highways and waterways, could potentially provide businesses the ability to handle the following commodities: t Dry bulk, such as cement, lumber, recycled materials, coal, petroleum coke and ores, t Break bulk, which includes individually bagged, boxed, drummed or palletized dry goods, t Hazardous liquid bulk, such as crude oil, ethanol, liquefied natural gas, t Non-hazardous liquid bulk, such as cooking oils, wine and juice, and t Roll on/roll off vehicles, including automobiles, trucks, construction and farm equipment. Land Development Opportunities Five formerly rail-served sites were evaluated in detail in regards to their ability to provide rail access to businesses interested in shipping or receiving freight by rail. Amports, Inc. is planning to develop a mari- time transload facility for new vehicles from Asia at the former Forestar Parcel. NorthPoint Development Company is planning to construct a primarily truck-served warehouse and distribution center at the Contra Costa Logistics Center in Oakley. The three remaining vacant parcels, Fulton Shipyard, Kemwa- ter and NRG, are going through environmental cleanup and are for sale. The NRG parcel is of particular interest because it has an active heavy rail spur connected to BNSF and offers waterfront access. Short-Line Railroads A short-line railroad is a small or mid-sized railroad company that operates over a short distance relative to larger, national railroad networks. Of the 21 short-line railroads operating in California, five would po- tentially be well-suited to the unique rail transportation conditions and opportunities in the Study Area: 1) Genesse & Wyoming, Inc., 2) Omnitrax, Inc., 3) Watco Transportation Services, 4) Sierra Northern Railway, and 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 15 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE v PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. 5) San Francisco Bay Railroad. Class I Railroads If deemed more efficient and economically advantageous, BNSF may engage a short-line railroad or rail switching contractor to provide switching services that it normally would undertake itself. However, BNSF has stated that “it would not likely support a separate, short-line railroad operation in the Study Area,” since at the present time, sufficient rail business exists in close proximity to the Study Area and enough growth potential for it to provide direct rail service without engaging a short-line railroad opera- tor to act in an intermediary capacity. The cost of building a new rail connection from the UP mainline to the Study Area is estimated to be $34.2 million and would be difficult to justify, given that the BNSF mainline is located adjacent to the waterfront parcels with rail access readily available. Findings and Conclusions Several major obstacles make the feasibility of a new, independent, short-line operation unlikely, to ser- vice the Study Area, including: t BNSF’s position that it would not likely support a short-line railroad operating in the Study Area, as it would be providing direct rail shipping service to Amport, Inc. and potentially to other busi- nesses in the Study Area that desire rail shipping service, t The challenges to constructing an independent rail corridor that would traverse through several parcels in the Study Area or along Wilbur Avenue, and t The very large capital investment needed to construct a new rail corridor to connect the Study Area with the UP mainline. Recommendation BNSF has communicated a desire to assist in the development of rail served businesses in the Study Area as part of this study. It has already been in discussions with several potential rail customers looking at moving to the Study Area. Contra Costa County the City of AntiochBOEUIF$JUZPG0BLMFZ should establish an on-going dialogue with the BNSF Economic Development office in San Bernardino, CA. These communications will allow all entities the ability to stay informed and coordinate on potential development opportunities that would be mutually beneficial in attracting new businesses to the Study Area. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 16 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 1 PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. 1 Introduction 1.1 Project Purpose As a result of the larger 2014 Northern Waterfront Economic Development Initiative, a Contra Costa County-led effort to create jobs along its waterfront, the Contra Costa County Department of Conser- vation and Development determined that a study that focused on the feasibility of a short-line railroad in the Northern Waterfront as one of the actions to advance the economic development of the overall waterfront. The intent of the study is to determine the feasibility of operating a short-line railroad in the Wilbur Av- enue Corridor (“Study Area”). This study consists of four parts, including: t Part 1: Introduction; t Part 2: Assessment of Existing Conditions and Environmental Due Diligence and Ecological Evaluation; t Part 3: Market Analysis; and t Part 4: Findings and Conclusions. 1.2 Historical Content Eastern Contra Costa County once played a significant role in providing jobs and economic develop- ment, especially with its waterfront, deep-water channels and proximity to two major railroads. Since the early 1900’s, manufacturing began to move to Eastern Contra Costa County. The availably of inexpensive land and labor as well as access to the waterfront, combined with the development of better highway and railroad access, facilitated the economic development of Eastern Contra Costa County. However, beginning in the 1990’s, manufacturing began to decline in the area as a result of stricter environmental laws, forcing many companies to install expensive pollution control devices, making their plants less competitive. The cost of doing business in Eastern Contra Costa County kept increasing, forcing manufacturing plants along the waterfront to close, leaving behind vacant brownfield sites requiring soil remediation before the land could be redeveloped. 1.3 Study Area The Study Area (Figure 1) encompasses an area approximately one-mile wide, extending between the San Joaquin River on the north and East 18th Street on the south and three and one-half miles long, extending between the Fulton Shipyard in the City of Antioch and the Contra Costa Logistics Center just east of State Route 160 (SR 160) in the City of Oakley. It includes the jurisdictions of Contra Costa County, the City of Antioch and the City of Oakley. The Study Area includes Wilbur Avenue, the main east/west roadway, and the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway (BNSF), a Class I (major) railroad, both of which traverse the entire length of the Study Area. Wilbur Avenue provides good truck access to SR 160 and State Route 4 (SR 4). The Study Area includes a mix of residential, commercial/industrial and agricultural land. Within this area are vacant former industrial parcels of land that have the potential to host industrial development or reuse. These parcels of land have access to the San Joaquin River and IBWF existing rail connections, both active and inactive, to the BNSF rail line. Approximately one mile south of the Study Area is an inactive rail line owned by another Class I railroad, the Union Pacific Railroad (UP). 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 17 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO:CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENTPAGE 2PREPARED BY:R.L.

BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. 1.4 Existing Conditions An overview of the existing conditions was first conducted virtually to become better acquainted with the Study Area. The overview helped determine which areas in particular needed to be included in the site visit. A number of vacant parcels along Wilbur Avenue were identified as having the potential of being served by rail. In particular, five of these parcels were originally rail-served at one time and could easily be re- connected to the BNSF mainline (Exhibit A). In the City of Antioch, there are four vacant parcels of land north of Wilbur Avenue that have the potential of being served by rail. Also, there are two vacant parcels located south of Wilbur Avenue and adjacent to the BNSF Mainline. These two parcels do not currently have rail access, but could easily become be connected due to the close proximity to the BNSF mainline. In the City of Oakley, there is one parcel at the former DuPont site, now known as the Contra Costa Logistics Center. Each of these parcels was evaluated for their potential to be used as rail-served develop- ments. 2 Assessment of Existing Conditions 2.1 Purpose Part 2 presents a summary of the “Assessment of Existing Conditions” Technical Memorandum. The purpose of this section is to provide a more detailed assessment of the existing conditions in the Study Area to determine if a short-line railroad is feasible. Key components of the assessment evaluate elements related to: 1) commercial/economic development conditions, 2) engineering feasibility and cost, 3) environmental concerns and 4) the transportation system as it relates to goods movement. Each com- ponent evaluates the issues and concerns related to the potential operation of a short-line railroad and the improvements that would be required to allow rail access to the Wilbur Avenue Corridor. A meeting was held at the City of Antioch City Hall with public works staff from Contra Costa County, the City of Antioch and the City of Oakley to get information on the existing engineering conditions/concerns within the Study Area. A site visit was also conducted by an engineering team to evaluate the following: t Feasibility of constructing a rail corridor to connect to each of the five vacant parcels of land that once enjoyed rail service and t Cost to reconstruct the rail infrastructure to provide these parcels with the ability to be served by rail. The following businesses were also contacted to assess the need for rail service: t Fulton Shipyard o 307 Fulton Shipyard Road, Antioch, CA; t Former Kemwater Chemical Company – 1251 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA; t Amports, Inc. (under construction) o 2603 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA; t Former NRG Marsh Landing Power Plant o 3201 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA; t Kie-Con, Inc. – 3551 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA; t CEMEX – 3600 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA and t Contra Costa Logistics Center (under construction) o 6000 Bridgehead Road, Oakley, CA. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 19 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 4 PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. The following vacant parcels also were identified as potential locations for new rail-served customers in the Study Area: tA vacant 4-acre industrial parcel - 2100 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA and tFormer GWF Power Systems 9-acre parcel - 3400 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA. This parcel is currently going through the planning approval process to develop a cannabis manufacturing and distribution warehouse development. A summary of these assessments are described in the following sections. 2.2 Commercial/Economic Development Analysis Two sets of interviews were conducted to identify opportunities to meet the needs of new, potential, rail- served customers and other redevelopment opportunities in the industrial portions of the Study Area. The first set consisted of an interview with economic development staff from Contra Costa County, the City of Antioch and the City of Oakley. As detailed in Figure 2, the second set of interviews consisted of interviews with existing businesses and private stakeholders. These interviews only identified one new rail shipper, Amports, Inc. It will be utilizing rail to ship new automobiles to their final destinations. This was not surprising given that most of the existing businesses in the Study Area fall into the truck-served category. In addition, many of the existing businesses located adjacent to the BNSF mainline are not uti- lizing the rail access available outside their doors. Figure 2 Summary of Existing Businesses and Private Stakeholder Interviews 2.3 Engineering Analysis There are five parcels within the Study Area that enjoyed rail service in the past. With the exception of the NRG Marsh Landing spur, the other four rail connections were disconnected from the BNSF main- line due to lack of use. The engineering team determined that the parcels which previously enjoyed rail service have the most potential to be developed into businesses that could benefit from rail access in the future. The engineering analysis only evaluated the cost of re-establishing rail service from the BNSF mainline to the property line of each of these parcels. The cost of re-establishing rail service to the subject parcels is expressed in Figure 3.

Figure 3 Cost to Re-Establish Rail Service to Previously Rail Served Parcels 2.4 Environmental Analysis A desktop environmental constraints assessment was performed, consisting of two parts, an Environ- mental Due Diligence Review and an Ecological Evaluation. The Environmental Due Diligence Review consisted of reviewing environmental databases, historical aerial photograph imagery, topographic maps and fire insurance maps to provide a ranking of sites that may pose potential concerns in connection with future development. The Ecological Evaluation included a review of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (US- FWS) and Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) databases. The results of these reviews are described below. 2.4.1 Environmental Due Diligence Review The Study Area is a historically agricultural and industrial area with documented impacts to soil and groundwater, particularly between the San Joaquin River and the BNSF railroad tracks. The environmen- tal desktop assessment revealed that soil and ground water contamination exists within the Study Area. Due to the potential these impacts could have on future developments, additional investigations may be required during the design phase to identify the potential for special soil and groundwater handling re- quirements during construction. Construction would also require oversight by State and local regulatory agencies. 2.4.2 Ecological Evaluation Ecological wetlands and critical habitats of threatened or endangered species are present throughout the Study Area. A variety of threatened and endangered species and other special-status species also may be present throughout the Study Area. A formal jurisdiction determination/wetland delineation and focused biological surveys would be required to determine the potential impacts of the proposed project on sensi- tive biological resources. The complete Assessment of Environmental Due Diligence Review and Ecological Evaluation can be found in the “Assessment of Existing Conditions” Technical Memorandum. 2.5 Transportation Analysis Local distribution and service activity comprises an important component of the Contra Costa County goods movement economy in terms of tons moved, value of products and traffic impacts on the region’s Name Address Cost to Re-Establish Fulton Shipyard 307 Fulton Shipyard Road, Antioch, CA 355,000$ Kemwater Chemical Company 1251 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA 1,037,880$ Amports* 2603 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA 765,536$ NRG Energy, Inc.** 3201 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA -$ Contra Costa Logistics Center 6000 Bridgehead Road, Oakley, CA 220,800$ * Because the spur into the NRG Parcel is still in place and serviceable, there would be no additional cost to re- establish rail service to this parcel. *Cost to rebuild the rail connection to the east end of the Amports parcel. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 21 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 6 PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. roadways. Measured in terms of value, commodities such as construction materials, manufactured goods and consumer electronics comprise a large amount of what moves into and within the Study Area. Urban goods movement is conducted almost exclusively by trucks and includes a high volume small delivery and 5-axle trucks used in long-haul intercityBOE interstate movements. Changes in the economy also contribute to the growing importance of local urban goods movement. Shifts away from manufacturing towards the service sector, especially professional, technical, and information services, equates to a higher level of small package movements via integrators and less emphasis on long-haul movements of manufac- tured products. Compared to the rest of the Bay Area, Eastern Contra Costa County features lower land costs, lower wages and good access to highways, rail and maritime service. Having direct access to three separate transportation modes makes the vacant parcels in the Study Area much more desirable than most other locations in the area. To better understand the how each of the transportation modes improves access to the Study Area, the goods movement system in Eastern Contra Costa County was FYBNJOFE in more detail. 2.5.1 Highways and Local Roads There are two State highways, State Route 4 (SR 4) and State Route 160 (SR 160), in close proximity to the Study Area (Figure 4). Two major surface street truck routes provide access to these State highways, East 18th Street and Wil- bur Avenue. The following routes are designated as Routes of Regional Significance by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority: t SR 4, between Interstate 80 in Hercules and the San Joaquin County Line; t SR 160, between SR 4 in Antioch and the Sacramento County Line; t East 18th Street, between A Street and SR 160 and t Wilbur Avenue, between A Street and SR 1601. The SR 4 highway corridor is a major east-west route approximately 31 miles in length, providing inter- regional commercial travel between the Central Valley and the Bay Area. The SR 4 corridor serves local and intercity truck and heavy automobile travel in surrounding commu- nities such as Hercules, Martinez, Concord, Pittsburg, Antioch, Oakley and Brentwood. Additionally, it provides access to Interstate 680 in Concord and Interstate 80 in Hercules, a major east-west interstate commerce route. SR 4 also connects to Interstate 5 in Stockton, a major north-south interstate commerce route. Truck and heavy vehicle traffic make up four to seven percent of the daily vehicle trips along the SR 4 Corridor2. SR 160 is a minor north-south route approximately 50 miles in length. It connects SR 4 in the City of Antioch with Business Interstate 80 in the City of Sacramento. Because the highway follows the Sacra- mento River, there are truck length restrictions on this route, eliminating most 5-axle trucks from us- 1 East County Action Plan for Routes of Regional Significance, Contra Costa Transportation Authority, Septem- ber 2017, p.10. 2 SR-4 Integrated Corridor Analysis, Contra Costa Transportation Authority, July 2012, p. 5. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 22 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO:CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENTPAGE 7PREPARED BY:R.L.

BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. ing this route. Most long-haul trucks use Interstate 680 in Concord or Interstate 5 in Stockton to make north-south movements to/from Eastern Contra Costa County. Trucks using this route constitute only 11 percent of the total average daily traffic volume. In contrast, truck volumes along SR 4 make up a significant portion of total traffic near the Study Area. Many of the 5-axle trucks are making longer distance trips between the Bay Area and the Central Valley. For SR 4, the average daily 5-axle truck volume is 2,531 trucks or 43 percent of total truck volume. The next highest truck volumes are the 2-axle pickup and delivery van type at 2,440 per day or 42 percent of all trucks. Additionally, there is an extensive network of arterial roadways and local streets that provide access to SR 4 and serve local travel throughout the corridor3. Within the Study Area along Wilbur Avenue, 5-axle trucks also make up a significant portion of the total truck volume at 377 trucks per day or 50% of all truck volumes. This indicates that most of the businesses within the Study Area are utilizing trucks to move both their inbound and outbound shipments3. 2.5.2 Rail The railroad infrastructure in the Bay Area was initially constructed to provide a more efficient trans- portation system to move inbound freight from seaports in San Francisco and Oakland to points inland. During the industrial development era of the late 1800’s, more and more manufacturing facilities were constructed in the Bay Area, further increasing the demand for low-cost transportation of raw materials and finished goods. The rail system continued to expand with connections to Los Angeles, Portland and the rest of the national rail network. This network of railroads increased the Bay Area’s ability to grow into becoming the largest manufacturing region in Northern California. Manufacturing reached its peak during the mid-1900’s as businesses began to merge and manufactur- ing began moving off shore. Railroads today are seeing resurgence in growth by utilizing a very different business model. Trucks have made significant progress in gaining business by providing faster connec- tions to localized markets. Today, railroads are generally only able to compete with trucks on a move that is greater than 500 miles. Many of the current businesses in Bay Area ship and receive goods from mar- kets that are too close for railroads to compete against in terms of timely delivery and flexibility. However, railroads still hold an advantage when moving heavy bulk commodities and cargo long distances. The trend over the last decade has been for Class 1 railroads to shift their focus to “hooking and haul- ing” long trains rather than providing switching and other “retail” transport service to customers with small volumes of rail cars and intermodal marine containers4. The adoption of that strategy has increased freight velocity and improved the profitability of the railroads though it has reduced rail volumes com- pared to what they would have been. Furthermore, this operating model puts rail customers at a disad- vantage when it comes to getting timely local switching services. There are two Class 1 railroads serving Contra Costa County, the BNSF and the Union Pacific Railroad (UP). Each railroad serves the Ports of Oakland, Richmond and Stockton. The UP exclusively serves the 3 2013 Daily Truck Traffic Database, Department of Public Works, City of Antioch. 4 Contra Costa County Northern Waterfront Initiative Market Assessment, April 2013, p. 22 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 24 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 9 PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. Ports of San Francisco, Redwood City and Benicia. In addition, BNSF serves a United Parcel Service in- termodal Yard in the City of Richmond. BNSF Railway’s Stockton Subdivision mainline bisects the Study Area. BNSF is the nation’s second largest Class 1 railroad, connecting the Bay Area with the national railroad system, moving freight to/from the cities of Chicago, Kansas City, Dallas and Houston. The rail system provides an important link between the Bay Area and the rest of the national rail system. The BNSF also hosts ten daily Amtrak San Joaquin trains between the Bay Area and Bakersfield. Paralleling SR 4 just south of the Study Area is the Union Pacific Railroad’s (UP) Tracy Subdivision, con- necting Martinez with Lathrop. Currently the line only hosts local freight movements between Martinez and Pittsburg, but could be used in the future as a freight or passenger rail connection to/from Tracy if rail demand warranted it. 2.5.3 Maritime The Bay Area ranks as the fourth largest exporting region in the U.S. in terms of tonnage. While the Port of Oakland handles 82% of the region’s maritime trade, the Bay Area’s ports at Richmond, Benicia, San Francisco and Redwood City, plus the inland port at Stockton, also handle significant maritime trade (Figure 5). The Port of Stockton is the primary Northern California port handling bulk cargo, with the remainder handled at San Francisco, Richmond and Redwood City. In 2011, 3,826 vessels arrived at re- gional berths. Most of the arrivals were bulk cargo vessels (50.6%). Containerized cargo, which is primar- ily processed through the Port of Oakland, accounts for over 50% of vessel capacity. Ports and maritime activities still play an important goods movement role in Eastern Contra Costa County. Maritime facilities are still are being used at the Fulton Shipyard to repair vessels. The Georgia Pacific Gypsum Plant still receives import cargo ships of bulk gypsum manufactured into wallboard for building construction and the Kie-Con Wharf utilizes its waterfront facility to transport large concrete bridge structural members to parts of the Bay Area, Hawaii and Guam. The wharf at the "NQPSUT parcel will be used for a proposed automotive transload facility and the NRG Marsh Landing wharf also has the potential of being developed into maritime transload operation because of its good access to rail and highways. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 25 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 10 PREPARED BY: R.L.

BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. 2.6 Findings and Conclusions There are five parcels north of Wilbur Avenue that were formFSly connected to the BNSF tracks. The rail connections could easily be restored if any of these five businesses were interested in re-establishing a rail option. There are two vacant parcels south of Wilbur Avenue that could easily be connected to the BNSF tracks. The soil and water contamination issues at a number of parcels have already been identified and are in the process of being cleaned up. The only outstanding issue is to evaluate the impacts any new develop- ment would have on the ecological habitats in the Study Area. Based on interviews conducted by RLBBOLTBOEATTPDJBUFT and a field review of the Study Area, most businesses are utilizing trucks for transporting inbound and outbound shipments of goods. Because of the nature of these businesses primarily serving Northern California customers, it is unlikely the rail option would be utilized. The Study Area features excellent highway, rail and water access. These connections provide many op- portunities for businesses looking for multiple transportation modes to expand business potential. SR 4 provides excellent connectivity to the rest of the Bay Area and the Central Valley. The BNSF provides direct long haul rail service between the Bay Area and the transportation hubs in Chicago, Kansa City and Dallas. The Study Area also has a waterfront that JODMVEFTBOVNCFSPGBDUJWFXIBSWFTBOEJOBDUJWF XIBSWFTUIBU can easily be put back inUP service. 3 Market Analysis 3.1 Purpose Part 3 presents a summary of the “Marketing Analysis” Technical Memorandum. The purpose of this section is to conduct a marketing analysis to identify opportunities for the freight rail mode to serve new customers and to determine the feasibility of a new short-line railroad service in the Study Area. The analysis evaluated the following elements: 1) Potential Customer Types, 2) Potential Land Development Opportunities, 3) Potential Short Line Operators, and 4) Relationships with Other Railroads. 3.2 Potential Customer Types in the Study Area To illustrate the potential types of businesses that could be interested in developing property along waterfront in the Study Area, an evaluation of the various seaports in the San Francisco Bay Area was undertaken. Examples of Northern California automobile transload operations can be seen at the Port of San Francisco, the Port of Richmond and the Port of Benicia. The import and export of bulk com- modities also play a major role at port facilities throughout the Bay Area region. However, these ports are constrained by the existing size of their facilities and will not be able to accommodate all of the maritime transload growth necessary to meet the Bay Area’s future demand. Many of the jobs that have tradition- ally operated near seaports as service activities related to port operations are moving further east to take advantage of lower land and business expenses to remain competitive. The waterfront parcels in the Study Area offer new opportunities for maritime-related businesses to move to a more favorable location or take advantage of better rail transportation rates because of the location’s close proximity to highway and rail access. This capability is a big advantage in attracting new businesses to the Study Area. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 27 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 12 PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. The waterfront along the Wilbur Avenue Corridor, with its accessibility to rail and highways, could po- tentially provide businesses the ability to handle the following types of commodities: t Dry bulk, such as cement, lumber, recycled materials, coal, petroleum coke and ores; t Break bulk, which includes individually bagged, boxed, drummed or palletized dry goods; t Hazardous liquid bulk, such as; crude oil, ethanol, liquefied natural gas; t Non-Hazardous liquid bulk, such as cooking oils, wine and juice and t Roll on/roll off vehicles, including automobiles, trucks, construction and farm equipment. A shipper survey was conducted of existing businesses in the Study Area showed that existing businesses currently being served by trucks would not change if the rail option was available to them. Most of these businesses receive raw materials and ship their finish products to Northern California markets by truck. Despite the fact that many of the existing businesses are located along the BNSF mainline, many choose to ship by truck because it is the most cost-effective mode to handle its specific transportation needs. The one exception is the Georgia Pacific (GP) Gypsum Wallboard Plant in Antioch. GP receives bulk gypsum by barge from Mexico and manufactures gypsum wallboard panels for commercial and resi- dential use. The finished products are shipped out by truck and rail depending on the most efficient and cost effective transport mode available. However, because GP is located between two parts of the Antioch Dunes National Wildlife Refuge, it would not be possible to construct an independent rail line to connect to this plant without utilizing a portion of the BNSF right-of-way. There are five vacant parcels in the Study Area that at one time had rail service and could easily be re- connected to the BNSF mainline (See Exhibit A). An engineering team conducted a field review to deter- mine the cost of reconnecting each parcel. In terms of new developments in the Study Area, Amports, Inc. is planning to develop a maritime trans- load facility at the former Forestar Parcel. This operation will unload ships of new vehicles from Asia and transport them by truck and rail to their final destinations. In addition, NorthPoint Development Com- pany is planning to construct the Contra Costa Logistics Center, a warehouse and distribution center at the former DuPont Parcel. This planned development will be mostly truck served, with a rail option available to any tenant requiring this mode option. The three remaining vacant parcels are going through environmental cleanup and are for sale. The NRG parcel, in particular, has generated some interest from potential buyers looking for a maritime transload site. Businesses that were interviewed expressed an in- terest in this parcel of land because of the waterfront access that would allow for bulk commodity trans- loading onto and off ships. Given the fact that many existing Bay Area maritime transload operations are at or near capacity, the Study Area is in an ideal location at which to attract these types of businesses. 3.3 Potential Land Development Opportunities in the Study Area Many businesses that locate near waterfront property generally need rail service because of the heavy bulk commodities associated with waterfront transload operations. The vacant parcels evaluated for land development opportunities all have good truck access via Wilbur Avenue to SR 4 and SR 160. The BNSF mainline crosses the Study Area just below Wilbur Avenue, allowing easy rail access to potential business opportunities along the waterfront. A field investigation of the Study Area revealed the following condi- tions Uhere are five rail spurs that provide rail access to vacant parcels within the Study Area (Figure 1). 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 28 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 13 PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. As discussed in Section 2.3 – Engineering Analysis, rail access for four of the five parcels is still in place and only requires re-establishing the rail infrastructure to the BNSF mainline. The fifth parcel, the NRG Marsh Landing Generating Station, has an existing rail spur that is still serviceable and does not need any upgrading. This makes all five parcels attractive for future business development. The sites investigated, from west to east, include: 3.3.1 Fulton Shipyard, 307 Fulton Shipyard Road, Antioch, CA This 10-acre parcel is currently being used to store equipment and is for sale. Two rail tracks inside the property provide access to the ship yard building and an outside construction yard. This parcel is separat- ed from the rest of the parcels in the Study Area by the Antioch Dunes National Wildlife Refuge, compli- cating the ability to connect this parcel to the other parcels via rail except via BNSF’s right-of-way. Once this parcel is remediated, it would be a very desirable property to a business needing rail access. There is an existing 525-foot wharf available that provides easy access to/from ships. 3.3.2 Kemwater Chemical Company, 1251 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA This 18-acre parcel is currently being used to support what appears to be a metal recycling facility. This 18-acre parcel once had a rail connection with the BNSF but it has been dismantled. The street crossing is still in place but 2,009 feet of new rail and ties would have to be replaced to restore the connection to the BNSF mainline. Access is available to the San Joaquin River but a wharf would need to be constructed if a potential business is interested in developing a maritime transload facility. 3.3.3 Amports (formFSly the Forestar Site), 2603 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA This 110-acre parcel was the site of the former Gaylord Container Corporation which manufactured pulp and paper products. The Forestar Parcel is currently under a 20-year lease with Amports, Inc., a global auto logistics company that receives new automobiles by ship and arranges for transportation by truck or rail to its final destination. The site once enjoyed two rail connections. One of the rail connections is located along the western border of the property and is connected to the same dismantled rail spur that served the Kemwater Chemical Company. This parcel is already going through the environmental and State Land Commission approval process to become a maritime transload facility. Once this project receives the necessary approvals, construction is expected to begin in late 2020. 3.3.4 NRG Marsh Landing Generating Station (Contra Costa Power Plant), 3201 Wilbur Avenue, Antioch, CA This 86-acre parcel is the site of a former coal-fired power plant. The plant was shut down in 2013, after NRG Energy, Inc. opened its new state-of-the-art natural gas power plant adjacent to the old facility. The total available land available to develop is comprised of the 39-acre former Marsh Landing Power Plant and an adjacent 47-acre undeveloped parcel. Due to the heavy rail cars that once brought petroleum coke to this power plant, there is an existing heavy rail connection to the BNSF mainline that is still service- able. No additional rail work would be necessary at this location to begin shipping by rail again. There is a 150-foot wharf available on this parcel providing easy access to/from ships. Once the old power plant is removed, this parcel would make an ideal maritime transload facility. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 29 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 14 PREPARED BY: R.L.

This parcel does not have direct access to the San Joaquin River because approximately 200-acres along the northern portion are designated as an environmentally sensitive area. 3.4 Short-Line Railroads 3.4.1 Overview of the Rail Industry A company’s ability to use rail is just one part of its ultimate decision to actually utilize rail service. The growing inclination of businesses to consider rail results from changes in the economics of transportation nationally. Four discernable trends suggest a growing role to be played by freight rail in the near future: t Demands on existing surface transportation infrastructure have never been greater; t Large railroads are enjoying a period of relative prosperity; t The relatively high cost of fuel, until very recently due to Covid-19 and t Increasingly stringent environmental regulations and resistance of property owners to new high- way construction in urban settings limiting the amount of highway expansion possible and focus- ing attention on alternatives to private motor vehicles. With respect to such matters, rail competes extremely well, with a reputation for having a “light environ- mental footprint” when compared with highways. The very fact that rail development must follow rail alignments reduces the potential for sprawl. Greater use of the rail mode has proved to be one area where environmentalists and economic developers have found significant common ground. 3.4.2 Benefits of Using Short-Line Railroads A short-line railroad is a small or mid-sized railroad company that operates over a short distance relative to larger, national railroad networks. Short-line railroads generally exist for one of three reasons: 1) to link two industries requiring rail freight together (for example, a coal mine and a power plant; 2) to in- terchange revenue traffic with other, usually larger, railroads or 3) to operate a tourist-oriented, passenger train service. Some short-lines exist for all three of these reasons. In general, short-line railroads provide many benefits to shippers. Among them are: t When a Class I carrier’s service deteriorates, they offer alternative rail options if they connect to multiple Class I carriers; t They are a means to gain competitive rates when they connect to multiple, Class I carriers; t They provide quality and timely service; t They make decisions at the local level and t They provide links to local communities and companies. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 30 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 15 PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. 3.4.3 Potential Short-Line Railroad Operators in the Study Area In California, there are 21 short-line railroads and 7 switching and terminal railroads, of which five are publicly owned. Of the 21 short-line railroads in California, there are at least five potential operators that would be well suited to the unique conditions and opportunities associated with rail transportation in the Study Area. These operators are very familiar with railroad industry operating standards and agreements with Class I railroads, businesses and public agencies. These operators are: 1) Genesee & Wyoming, Inc. (GWRR), headquartered in Darien, CT. This short-line railroad com- pany operates 113 short-line and regional freight railroads in 42 U.S. states and four Canadian provinces, including six short-lines in California: the Central Oregon & Pacific Railroad (CORP), the California Northern Railroad (CFNR), the San Joaquin Valley Railroad (SJVR), the Ventura County Railroad (VCRR), the San Diego & Imperial Valley Railroad (SDIY) and the Arizona & California Railroad (ARZC). G833 is experienced with waterfront transload operations; it worksin close coordination with publicly-owned seaports and rail ferry services at forty seaports world-wide 2) OmniTRAX, Inc. (OmniTRAX), headquartered in Denver, CO. OmniTRAX is experienced with barge terminal and transload operations. In California, OmniTRAX operates the Stockton Termi- nal & Eastern Railroad (STE) in Stockton 3) Watco Transportation Services (Watco), headquartered in Pittsburg, KS. This short-line railroad company operates 43 short-line railroads in 23 states. Watco is experienced with seaport and transload operations in many of its short-line railroad operations in the U.S. In California, Watco operates the Pacific Sun Railroad (PSRR) in San Diego County 4) Sierra Northern Railway (SERA), headquartered in Woodland, CA. SERA operates a railroad between West Sacramento and Woodland, including the maritime transload facility at the Port of Sacramento. The railroad also serves rail customers between Sonora, Oakdale and Riverbank, including the 170-acre Riverbank Industrial Complex. SERA interchanges traffic with both the Union Pacific Railroad and the BNSF Railway. In addition, it is the contract railroadoperator at the Department of Defense’s Concord Naval Weapons Station, located a few mileswest of the Study Area 5) San Francisco Bay Railroad (SFBR), headquartered in San Francisco, CA. This short-line rail- road has been in operation since 2000 and operates over five miles of track in San Francisco, serving the maritime transload facility at the Port of San Francisco. The railroad provides all of the switching services supporting the automobile and bulk commodity transload shipments at the Port of San Francisco. 3.5 Class I Railroads 3.5.1 BNSF Railway BNSF has a long history of partnering with short-line railroads. Currently, BNSF has 209 short-line rail- road partners in 27 states. BNSF, as a common carrier, has an obligation to serve businesses that require rail service near its rail system. In most cases, BNSF’s prefers providing direct rail service to its custom- ers. However, if deemed more efficient and economically advantageous, BNSF may engage a short-line 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 31 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 16 PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. railroad or rail switching contractor to provide the necessary switching services it normally would under- take itself. BNSF has stated that “it would not likely support a separate, short-line railroad operation in the Study Area.” BNSF’s position, at the present time, is that there exists sufficient rail business in close proximity to the Study Area and enough growth potential for it to provide direct rail service without engaging a short- line railroad operator to act in an intermediary capacity. However, those decisions could change and will be made on a case-by-case basis as it evaluates each proposed business opportunity. The final decision will be made based on what makes the most economic sense to BNSF and the potential rail customer. 3.5.2 Union Pacific Paralleling SR 4 south of the Study Area is the Union Pacific Railroad’s (UP) Tracy Subdivision, con- necting Martinez with Lathrop. Currently, the line only hosts local freight movements between Martinez and Pittsburg, CA. To access this rail line as a rail alternative, a major financial undertaking would be necessary. Building a rail connection between the UP and the Study Area would require purchasing a two-mile long, 50-foot right-of-way corridor to construct this new rail connection. The only opportunity to construct a new rail corridor would be adjacent to SR 160. It would require preparing a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) document and hiring an engineering firm to develop the plans and estimated cost to construct the new rail connection. In addition, the new rail corridor would have to cross the BNSF mainline near Wilbur Avenue, which would require extensive negotiations with BNSF, who would resist enabling a competitor to access a market it traverses. This crossing likely would require the construction of a rail-to-rail grade separation to avoid conflicts with BNSF freight traffic and the busy Amtrak San Joaquin passenger rail service. Figure 6 Cost to Construct a New Rail Line Connecting the Union Pacific with the Study Area The cost of building a new rail connection to the UP to/from the Study Area (Figure 6) would be hard to justify given the BNSF mainline is located adjacent to the waterfront parcels with rail access readily avail- able. Any business wanting to utilize the UP would be faced with a very large capital investment and only attain the ability to access the UP on a branch line offering only limited weekly service today. Meanwhile BNSF can provide much better service because it has ready access to each parcel in the Study Area. 4 Findings and Conclusions 4.1 Feasibility of Establishing a New Short-Line Railroad Short-Line railroads have the ability of provide low cost rail service to make shipping by rail an attrac- tive option.

BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. 4UVEZ"SFBstill have the potential to attract new businesses and create new jobs. However, several major obstacles make the feasibility of a new independent short-line SBJMoperation unlikely, including: t Amports Shipping Operations: Upon completion of the interviews and the field investigation, RLBBOLTBOE"TTPDJBUFT determined the former Forestar Parcel is under a long-term lease by Amports to developa marine transload facility to unload vehicles from Asia and ship them by truck and rail to theirfinal destinations. In addition, Amports has already made arrangements for BNSF to directly provide the necessary rail service to its facility. t BNSF Railway Unlikely to Support a Short-Line RailSPBE Operation: The biggest drawback for a short-line railroad operation is the inability to operate without a Class I railroad partner. As mentioned in Section 3.5.1, BNSF has stated that “it would not likely support a separate, short- line operation” in the Study Area. At the present time, BNSF’s position is there exists sufficient rail business in close proximity to the Study Area and enough growth potential for BNSF to provide direct rail service without engaging a short-line railroad operator to act in an intermediary ca- pacity. Because BNSF will be providing direct long haul rail service for Amports, it will have the ability to give very favorable rail rates to Amports that a short-line SBJMSPBEoperator would not be able tomatch. Similarly, BNSF can provide very efficient and cost-effective service at a lower cost to theother potential rail customers in the Study Area. t The Ability to Construct an Independent Rail Corridor to Connect Each of the Rail-Served- Parcels: A field investigation led to RLBA’s determination that it was not possible to install an in- dependent rail connection to the Fulton Shipyard because it is located west of the Antioch Dunes National Wildlife Refuge and can only be accessed by the BNSF mainline. BNSF’s opposition to a short-line operation in the Study Area blocks the ability of any new alignment to access BNSF’s mainline. The Amports facility lies in the middle of the Study Area, between the Kemwater and NRG Par- cels. A discussion was held with Amports regarding the possibility of constructing a rail connec- tion across its property. Amports stated it was not willing to allow any other railroad operations on its property because it needed all the available to space to conduct its business at that site. This eliminated the possibility to construct an independent rail corridor to connect the Kemwater parcel to the NRG Parcel. An inquiry was made of the City of Antioch regarding the possibility of constructing a rail con- nection on the north side of Wilbur Avenue. The City was unable to accommodate a 50-foot wide strip of land in which to construct a railroad because it needs all of the available right-of-way to accommodate a planned expansion of Wilbur Avenue to four lanes. This eliminated the option to construct an independent rail corridor along Wilbur Avenue to connect the Kemwater Parcel with the NRG Marsh Landing Parcel. The engineering team also investigated the possibility of constructing a rail line to connect the NRG Parcel to the Contra Costa Logistics Center. The only way this could be accomplished would be by utilizing an existing highway undercrossing. However, this undercrossing also hosts the SR 160 highway interchange and there is insufficient land available to accommodate a rail line and the highway facility at this location. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 33 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO: CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT PAGE 18 PREPARED BY: R.L. BANKS & ASSOCIATES, INC. t The Ability to Connect the UP to the Study Area: Building a rail connection between the UP and the Study Area would require purchasing a two-mile long, 50-foot right-of-way corridor to construct this new rail connection. The estimated cost to construct the new rail connection is $34.2 million. This crossing likely would require the construction of a rail-to-rail grade separa- tion to avoid conflicts with BNSF freight traffic and the busy Amtrak San Joaquin passenger rail service. The expensive initial capital costs to build this connection would be hard to justify con- necting to a branch line railroad with limited weekly service. The service and cost would not be competitive to what BNSF can offer businesses that ship directly through them. 4JODFBNSF desires to serve rail shippers in the Study Area directly and the cost to connect the Study Area to the UP would be very costly, a short-line railroad operation would not becost competitive at the present time. t Recommendation: BNSF has a desire to assist in the development of rail served businesses in the Study Area. It has already been in discussions with several potential rail shippers looking at mov- ing to the Study Area. Contra Costa County, the City of Antioch and the City of Oakley should establish an on-going dialogue with the BNSF Economic Development office in San Bernardino, CA. This will allow all entities the ability to stay informed and coordinate on potential develop- ment opportunities that would be mutually beneficial in attracting new businesses to the Study Area. The rail business climate is dynamic and can change over time. What might not be possible today may become a reasonable alternative in the future. RLBBOLTBOEATTPDJBUFT can help facilitate those discussions with BNSF or other railroad companies, if necessary. 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 34 of 139 EXHIBIT A SITE MAPS PAGE 19 11-09-20 Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee Meeting - Agenda Packet Page 35 of 139 DRAFT REPORT TO:CONTRA COSTA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENTPAGE 20PREPARED BY:R.L.

Referral Update: In developing transportation related issues and proposals to bring forward for consideration by TWIC, staff receives input from the Board of Supervisors (BOS), references the County's adopted Legislative Platforms, coordinates with our legislative advocates, partner agencies and organizations, and consults with the Committee itself. This report includes four sections, 1: LOCAL, 2: REGIONAL, 3: STATE, and 4: FEDERAL . 1. LOCAL No report in November. 2. REGIONAL No report in November. 3. STATE Mr. Watts will attend the November Committee meeting to provide a verbal report, his written report is included in the TWIC packet. 4. FEDERAL No report in November. Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s): CONSIDER report on Local, Regional, State, and Federal Transportation Related Legislative Issues and take ACTION as appropriate. Fiscal Impact (if any): There is no fiscal impact. Attachments November TWIC Transportation Legislative Report Smith, Watts & Company, LLC. Consulting and Governmental Relations November 4, 2020 TO: Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors Transportation, Water, and Infrastructure Committee FROM: Mark Watts SUBJECT: Sacramento Report – November TWIC Meeting This report provides a status update on activities undertaken by the Newsom Admisntration and key legislative or state budget activities, as well as a first glimpse at the National and State election Results. Elections Yesterday was the national and state elections date. At stake in California were 12 Propositions, regular elections for all 80 Assembly Seats and 20 of the Senate Seats (odd number districts). NATIONAL At this writing, the presidential race was too close to call and it appeared that the House add to the Democratic majority while the Senate likely retained a Republican Majority. State Propositions – Of the 12 propositions there were three that touch on transportation policy in a manner: #15 – Would affect the state budget condition overall; this morning it was behind with Noes at 52%. #16 – Affirmative Action restoration could have implications for workforce composition; Noes leading with 56%. #22 – Transportation Network Companies (TNC‐app rideshare) relief from AB 5; in this instance, Yes was leading with 58% LEGISLATURE State Assembly The present composition heading in the election was Democrats – 61, Republicans – 17, Independent – 1 and 1 Vacancy. It appears that the majority may pick up 1‐2 seats at this writing. State Senate With half of the seats up for election, the composition of the Senate is Democrats – 29, Republicans – 11. This appears to be holding with 2 seats remaining in play with tight vote margins. Smith, Watts & Company, LLC. Consulting and Governmental Relations Executive Order N‐19‐19 Implementation. In September 2019, Governor Newsom signed Executive Order N‐19‐19 which calls for actions from multiple state agencies to reduce GHG emissions and mitigate the impacts of climate change, including the transportation sector. Over this immediate past summer, CalSTA and Caltrans staff has initiated a series of outreach efforts, including an implementation survey conducted by CalSTA. Their planning horizon calls for release of an implementation plan in the coming weeks. This is being cast as the CAPTI: Climate Action Plan for Transportation Infrastructure (CAPTI) The objectives of the Secretary’s Office effort is intended to: Align planning and programming with objectives of California Climate Change Scoping Plan Reduce VMT by directing investments in a way that support infill development, especially housing near jobs Reduce congestion through innovative strategies that encourage people to shift from cars to other modes of travel Fund infrastructure that encourages transit use, walking, and biking Mitigate for any increases in transportation costs incurred on lower income Californians Governor’s Executive Order N‐79‐20 This more recent Order is directly tied to N‐19‐19 by highlighting the state’s intent to expand clean transportation options Expressing a singular note of caution, the Secretary’s office acknowledges that this activity must be done within the “fix‐it‐first” approach and generally within existing funding frameworks. These have been identified as: Building towards an integrated, statewide rail and transit network Investing in networks of safe and accessible bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure Including investments in light, medium, and heavy‐duty zero‐emission‐vehicle (ZEV) infrastructure Reducing public health harms and maximize benefits to disproportionately impacted disadvantaged communities Making safety improvements to reduce fatalities and severe injuries Promoting projects that do not increase passenger vehicle travel Developing a zero‐emission freight transportation system, and Protecting natural and working lands TRANSPORTATION, WATER & INFRASTRUCTURE COMMITTEE 7. Meeting Date:11/09/2020 Subject:DISCUSS and REVISE the County's 2021 State and Federal Legislative Platforms (TWIC Referrals Only) and DIRECT staff as appropriate. Submitted For: TRANSPORTATION, WATER & INFRASTRUCTURE COMMITTEE, Department:Conservation & Development Referral No.: 1 Referral Name: Review legislative matters on transportation, water, and infrastructure. Presenter: John Cunningham, DCD Contact: John Cunningham (925)674-7833 Referral History: The Transportation, Water, and Infrastructure Committee (TWIC) annually reviews the State and Federal Legislative Platforms for revisions to sections under its purview. The full Board of Supervisors then adopts the platforms in January. Staff with responsibility for items on TWIC's referral list are provided the option to bring platform revisions to either TWIC or the Legislation Committee given the dual responsibility for the platform update. In the event that legislative platform modifications for TWIC referred items are brought to the Legislation Committee, staff is requested to inform TWIC of the changes. Last years platform update was a comprehensive update changing the format of the document and sumarizing various positions. In addition to the annual policy updates the more substantial formatting and structure changes were made. These changes resulted in a more streamlined, concise document with increased prioritization. Lara Delaney, the County's staff lead on legislation, sent out a request for review and comment on the platform. This item is in response to that request. Referral Update: At the time the packet was posted staff did not have any recommended changes to either the state or federal platforms. Staff may bring revisions for consideration by the Committee at their November 9th meeting. The Hazardous Materials Commission sent a letter to the Legislation Committee with input on the platforms.

It is the ninth most populous county in the state. Contra Costa is large – over 733 square miles and extends from the northeastern shore of the San Francisco Bay easterly about 50 miles to San Joaquin County. The County is bordered on the south and west by Alameda County and on the north by the Suisun and San Pablo Bays. The western and northern shorelines are highly industrialized, while the interior sections are suburban/residential, commercial and light industrial. About 40 percent of the county is under the jurisdiction of 19 incorporated cities and towns, and large portions of the remaini ng unincorporated area are part of public park systems. Contra Costa County is also very diverse, with communities that range from small agricultural towns like Byron, with a population density of about 200 people per square mile, to urban population cente rs like Contra Costa Centre, a bustling transit village with a population density of 8,400 people per square mile. Demographic Highlights Approximately 1.1 million people live in Contra Costa County but only 15%, or about 172,080 people, reside in the unincorporated areas of the county. Most of the population is consolidated along the major transportation corridors--Interstates 80 and 680, Highways 4 and 24, and the BART lines. The median age of Contra Costa County residents is 39 years old. Seniors over age 60 as a percentage of our population are expected to expand from 13% in 2020 to 25% in 2020, making this age group our fastest-growing population. The majority (57%) of County residents are white, with significant proportions of Asian (1 7%) and African American (8%) people. The Census tracks Latinx ethnicity separately from other populations; in total, the Hispanic/Latino population makes up approximately one-quarter of the total population. 4 Governance A five-member Board of Supervisors, each elected to four-year terms, serves as the legislative body of the County, which has a general law form of government. Also elected are the County Assessor, Auditor-Controller, Clerk-Recorder, District Attorney, Sheriff-Coroner and Treasurer-Tax Collector. The County Administrator, David Twa, is appointed by the Board and is responsible for running the day-to-day business of the County. Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors: District 1: John M.

Glover 5 Legislative Platform Purpose The Legislative Platform establishes the priorities, principles, and policy statements of the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors and establishes the ba sis for its advocacy efforts, alerting our legislative partners of the greatest needs of our residents and where we need additional help1. The Platform also provides general direction to County departments and agencies, legislative advocates, delegation me mbers, and the public on our positions on key policy matters that would impact the way the County does business. Contra Costa County has also adopted a Delta Water Platform2 to identify and promote activities and policy positions that support the creatio n of a healthy Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. Contra Costa County uses this Delta Water Platform to guide its actions and advocacy regarding the future of the Delta. Mission, Vision, and Values Contra Costa County has adopted the following Mission, Vision and Values statement: 1 Note that until the 2021-2022 Platform is adopted, the 2019 Adopted Platform policies are considered a component of this Platform. 2 The Delta Water Platform is available at: https://www.contracosta.ca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/2273/Delta- Water-Platform?bidId=. 6 FEDERAL FUNDING NEEDS: PROJECT SPECIFIC 1.
