BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
;.
FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
DATE: October 6, 1998
SUBJECT: Determine the Need to Continue the Emergency Action Regarding the Repair of the
Alhambra Valley Road Bank Erosion at Pinole Creek, and the Alhambra Valley Road Aide
2.7 miles east of Bear Greek Road, Pinole Area
Project No: 0872-6R6355.98and 0872-686355.98, respectively
i. Recommended Action:
DETERMINE that there is a need to continue the emergency action taken by the Board of
Supervisors on April 14, 1998 pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 22035 and 22050, to
repair the Alhambra Valley Road Bank Erosion at Pinole Creek, and the Alhambra Valley Road
Slide 2.7 miles east of Bear Greek Road, Pinole Area.
Ill. Financial impalct:
There is no impact to the general fund. Plans, specifications and engineer's estimate are
complete. The preliminary cost estimates for the projects indicate a construction cost of
$110,000, and $90,000 respectively. The projects cannot be constructed as designed this year
due to environmental permitting constraints. However, efforts to stabilize the slides are under
design and are scheduled to be completed by late September.

111. Reasons For Recommendations And Background:
The excessive rains of February 2, 1998 and debris in an unmaintained creek, caused storm
waters from Pinole Creek to flow over Alhambra Valley Road, washing'out the embankment on
the far side of the crossing. In addition, high flows in Vaca Creek caused a slide to undercut
Alhambra Valley Road at a point approximately 2.7 miles east of the intersection with Bear Creek
Road.
Alhambra Valley Road accommodates more than 4,200 vehicles per day. If the slide is allowed
to progress and a road closure becomes necessary, east/west traffic between Central and West
County along this corridor would no longer be possible. Immediate repair of this washout is
necessary to assure the road=s stability.
Since Alhambra Valley Road is included in the federal highway system and with the federal
designation of Contra Costa County as a disaster area, it qualifies for Federal Highway
Administration funds to make the repairs. If we were to follow our normal construction contract
advertisement and approval process, the slide stabilization could not begin until early October.
Pursuant to provisions of Sections 22035 and 22050 of the Public Contract Code, when the
appropriate findings of an emergency are made by the Board of Supervisors, the normal bidding
procedures are waived and stabilization can begin immediately.
We are, therefore, recommending that the Board continue the emergency action and direct the
Public Works Director to proceed with the project and enter into any necessary contracts to
ensure completion of slide stabilization in the most expeditious manner.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
Non-concurrence of the above recommendation will significantly delay stabilization of the slides
which would result in potential road failure and road closure.

SUBJECT: Determine the Need to Continue the Emergency Action Regarding the Repair of the Fish
Ranch Road Slide, Orinda area.
Project No. 0672-6R6346
I. Recommended Action:
DETERMINE that there is a need to continue the emergency action taken by the Board of
Supervisors on March 24, 1998, pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 22035 and 22050,
to repair the Fish Ranch Road Slide, Orinda area.
11. Financial lmpact:
There is no impact to the general fund. Plans, specifications and engineer's estimate are
complete. The project is currently under construction, and the upper slide is complete. The lower
slide has been delayed due to utility conflicts. However, the entire project should be completed
by mid-October. The expected contract cost based on the low bid is $684,651.

Det mine the Need to Continue the Emergency Action Regarding the Repair of the Fish Ranch Road Slide, Orinda
Area
October 6, 1958
Page Two
Ill. Reasons For Recommendations And Background:
Fish Ranch Road has been damaged by a landslide which affected the uphill, north bound lane and
approximately three feet of the downhill, south bound lane. The slide scarp has dropped
approximately one foot below road surface, creating a dangerous condition which necessitated
closing the road February 21, 1998. The Public Works Department was able to make temporary
repairs to the slide damaged roadway which facilitated opening the south' bound lane on March 9.
Slide movement has slowed, but further movement and increased pavement damage is expected
over the next few weeks as groundwater continues to accumulate at the slide site. A small slide
along the edge of the north bound lane approximately half a mile from the larger site will also be
repaired as part of this project. Fish Ranch Road carries 6,000 vehicles per day and this traffic'has
been severely hampered by the closure of the road from February 21 to March 9, and the
subsequent closure of the north bound lane to date.
Since Fish Ranch Road is included in the federal highway system and with the federal designation
of Contra Costa County as a disaster area, it qualifies for Federal Highway Administration funds to
make the repairs. To receive 100% funding for this repair, the work must be completed within 180
days of the February 2, 1998 emergency declaration. After that time, only 88.5% financing is
available and the County will have to pay the 11.5% matching funds.
If we were to follow our normal construction contract advertisement and approval process, the slide
repair would not have begun until early September. On March 24, 1998, pursuant to provisions of
Sections 22035 and 22050 of the Public Contract Code, the Board of Supervisors declared an
emergency for the slide repair, allowing the normal bidding procedures to be waived and repairs
to begin immediately.
We recommend that the Board continue the emergency action to ensure'completion of the repair
in the most expeditious manner.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
Non-concurrence of the above recommendation will significantly delay completion of the repair of
the roadway, prolonging impacts to traffic flow.

DATE: October 6, 1998
SUBJECT: Determine the need to continue emergency action regarding the Repair of the Bollinger

Area and the McEwen Road Slide in the Crockett Area.

11. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no impact to the general fund. Total cost of repairs cannot be fully determined at this
time, but staff is developing estimates to complete expeditious stabilization and road repair.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND:
The Bollinger Canyon Road Slide project will stabilize the western slope of the road and
prevent further damage to the shoulder of the road. Without this repair, further slide movement
will result in closure of one or both lanes of the road.
The McBryde Avenue Slide project will stabilize the northern slope of the road and open the
lane currently closed due to the slide. The road at this location is hemmed in on the south side
by a rock retaining wall. Fire access through this area is seriously impacted by the closure of
one lane due to the slide.
The McEwen Road Slide project will stabilize the western slope of the road. Preliminary reports
from the soils engineer indicate that the slide is comprised of the overburden material from the
original road construction. The area is currently coned off and further movement could close
the road altogether.
Since Bollinger Canyon Road is included in the federal highway system and with the federal
designation of Contra Costa County as a disaster area, it qualifies for Federal Highway
Administration funds to make the repairs. Consequently, 88.5%financing is available and the
County will have to pay the 11.5% matching funds using road funds.
McBryde Avenue and McEwen Road slides both qualify for Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) funds. FEMA provides 75% of the funding while the State provides the
remaining 25%.
If we were to follow our normal construction contract advertisement and approval process, the
slide repair could not begin until early October. Pursuant to provisions of Sections 22035 and
22050 of the Public Contract Code, when the appropriate findings of an emergency are made
by the Board of Supervisors, the normal bidding procedures are waived and repairs can begin
immediately.
We are, therefore, recommending that the Board make such findings and direct the Public
Works Director to proceed with the project and enter into any necessary contracts.
IV. Conseguences of Negative Action:
Non-concurrence of the above recommendation will significantly delay repair of the slides
prolonging impacts to traffic flow, and potentially endangering these roads roadway from further
erosion and slippage.
