III. REASONS FOR RECOrMENDATION/BACKGROUND
The Board of Supervisors requested the status of the Port of
Oakland's pians to dispose of dredging material resulting
from the deepening of various port waterways. Material from
the first phase was originally scheduled for ocean disposal
in the area of Half Moon Bay. This plan had the approval of
the Corps of Engineers, but ran into problems with citizens
groups during the environmental review process. The Port
therefore revised their first phase plan to provide for
disposal of the dredged material on Twitchell Island and
Lower Jones Tract in the Delta area. They have already
received approval from the local Reclamation Boards and the
plan is currently being considered by the Central Valley
Regional Water Quality Control Board. The Port is currently
preparing environmental documentation for the Delta Island
disposal plan. With regards to phase two of the project, the
Port and the Corps of Engineers are still working on obtain-
ing the necessary approvals for ocean disposal of thg dredged
material.
