The warrants shall be funded as follows:
ORG. ACTIVITY TASK ACCT. AMOUNT
Warrant No. 1 100% 7520 6138687 SAS 3541 $25,000.00
Warrant No. 2 100% 7520 6138637 SAS 3541 $26,514.39
The amount of $26,514.39 is reimbursable from the California Department of Water Resources.
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
By resolution dated January 21, 1958, the Board of Supervisors of Contra Costa County gave
assurances of local cooperation to the Corps of Engineers for the Walnut Creek Project. Among
these assurances are requirements to pay in cash 7.4 percent of the Federal project
construction cost and to provide for the relocation of all roads, bridges and utilities required for
the project. The Corps of Engineers has agreed to include relocation work in the Federal project
at 100 percent local cost to be paid as a "Contributed Funds Other" item.
On August 26, 1986 the Board of Supervisors approved and executed a Joint Exercise of
Powers Agreement with the City of Walnut Creek which obligated the Flood Control District to
pay 7.4 percent of the cost of channel cover funded by the City and included in the Federal
project as a "Contributed Fund Other" item.
Under current State law the local costs of relocation work required for the San Ramon Creek
Bypass Project is 100 percent reimbursable by the Department of Water Resources.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
Failure to authorize the issuance of a warrant would be cause for the Corps of Engineers to stop
further work on the Walnut Creek Project.
