Fujii, Deputy County Counsel Subject: Appeal of Health Officer Decision; 1000 Fish Ranch Road, Orinda; APN 265-180-016; Tamara L. Attard, Applicant and Appellant; October 28, 2003 Board Meeting; REPORT OF HEALTH OFFICER 1. INTRODUCTION. The parcel (APN 265-180-016) commonly referred to as 1.000 Fish Ranch Road ("Property") is located in the drainage area of San Pablo Reservoir. Appellant Tamara Attard(Appellant or Attard), with her husband Paul, recently purchased the Property, and would now like to place a greenhouse and a three-bedroom caretaker's residence on it. The greenhouse does not contain plumbing fixtures and is not at issue in this appeal. However, to obtain a building permit for the residence, Appellant must demonstrate that a legal method of sewage disposal will be available. (County Ordinance Code, § 420-6.301.) Under the County Ordinance Code, an individual (septic) system is not allowed on property that is within 1040 feet of a tributary stream of a water supply reservoir. Tributary streams that eventually drain into San Pablo Reservoir pass through or within 1000 feet of the Property. Therefore, and as further detailed in this report, the Ordinance Code prohibits a septic system on the Property. The Ordinance Code would allow a sewage disposal system using a watertight holding tank owned or operated by a public agency on the Property. however, and as also detailed below, no public agency has yet to offer to own or operate such a system on the Property. 'Staff has fled herewith, a document entitled"RECORDS FROM HEALTH SER'tTICES DEPARTMENT FILE" ("HSD Records'). These records are submitted to provide the Board with documents,photos and information from County Department files as the Board may wish to review. Included among the documents is a copy of the relevant pages of the County Ordinance Code. County Ordinance Code section 420-6.301 is at page 398 (Nos. 1-199 and most of 200s not used)of the HSD Records. Board of Supervisors October 28, 2003 Board Meeting Page 2 II. THE PROPERTY IS WITHIN 1000 FEET OF A TRIBUTARY STREAM OF SAN PABLO RESERVOIR; THEREFORE, UNDER COUNTY ORDINANCE CODE SECTION 420-6.5079 AN INDIVIDUAL SYSTEM IS NOT PERMITTED ON THE PROPERTY. Although San Pablo Reservoir is several miles away from the Property, the Property is unquestionably located within the drainage area of San Pablo Reservoir, a major drinking water supply reservoir. Water from the Property(including water from the stream that runs through the Property) flows to San Pablo Creek, which flows into San Pablo Reservoir. A. The County Ordinance Code Has Long Afforded Maximum Protection for Water Supply Reservoirs. Since 1968,' County Ordinance Code section 4201-6.507 has afforded heightened protection for water supply reservoirs, by imposing additional restrictions upon the installation of individual (septic) systems in water supply reservoir drainage areas, as follows. 420-6.507 Individual system near a reservoir, variances. (a) Location. If the parcel or lot is located within a drainage area of a domestic water supply reservoir, any structure requiring disposal of sewage shall be connected to a community sewer collection system. (b) Variances. If a community sewer collection system is not available'the health officer may grant a variance subject to the following: (1) If the parcel or lot is between fifty and one thousand feet from the reservoir or tributary stream a watertight sewage holding tank system, or equal will be required. Such system must be owned or operated by a presently existing public agency having statutory authority to provide such service. 'The County Ordinance Code was amended in 1968 (Ordinance No. 68-16)to add the water supply reservoir requirements currently at Ordinance Code section 420-6.547. (HSD Records,page 409.) 'The term "sewer availability" is defined in County Ordinance Code section 420-6.115, at HSD Records,page 397.) Board of Supervisors October 28, 2003 Board Meeting Page 3 (2) Beyond one thousand feet from a reservoir or tributary stream an individual system or other similar acceptable system may be permitted subject to all the conditions specified in Section 420-6.505. (c) Variance Temporary. It is the intent of this chapter to provide maximum protection to the water quality of the waters stored in these reservoirs and any variance granted must be considered as an interim method of sewage disposal which shall not create situations that may become a menace to the public health. (Ords. 81-30 § 1, 68-16 § 3, 175.2: prior code § 4643: Ord. 1440). (HSD Records,page 399.) 420-6.105. Drainage Area. "Drainage area" of a water supply reservoir means all the land that can or may drain into the reservoir,whether or not the topographical configuration is artificially or naturally caused. (Orris. 81-30, 74-67, 68-16: prier code, § 4640(#).) (HSD Records, page 397.) B. Tributary Streams of San Pablo Reservoir Run Through and Along the Property, and Another is 500 Peet Downslope of the Property. There are several streams that pass through or within 1000 feet of the Property that eventually drain into San Pablo Creek. San Pablo Creek drains directly into San Pablo Reservoir. On April 23, 2003, a 3-4 feet wide stream was observed on the Property. That stream has been largely channeled into a 42" culvert on Appellant's Property,4 which apparently passes under the Property. (Declaration of Michael Cervantes ("Cervantes Declaration"), attached hereto, ' 9.) In addition to the culverted waters, waters flow onto the Property south of the culvert opening. Because of the topography of the Property, which is at the bottom of a natural canyon (discussed further in paragraph D), all of the waters that flow onto the Property eventually drains to San Pablo Creek, which flows into San Pablo Reservoir. (Cervantes Declaration,T 9.) 4The structural integrity of the culvert is not known. Board of Supervisors October 28,2003 Board Meeting Page 4 There is also a larger stream about 500 feet downslope of the Property. That stream flows to San Pablo Creek. (Cervantes Declaration, esp. T 9.) County maps also show another stream adjacent to the Property, which is not visible on the surface. (Cervantes Declaration,T 11.) This stream apparently has also been culverted. Due to its proximity to the above-discussed streams,under Ordinance Code section 420-6.507(b)(1), a structure requiring plumbing facilities built on the Property must either connect to a community sewer or be served by a watertight sewage holding tank system (or equal) owned or operated by a presently existing public agency. Ordinance Code section 420-6.507 does not allow a variance to allow a septic system on the Property. C. The Streams at Issue Are Tributary Streams of San Pablo Reservoir. .Appellant asserts that the streams that pass through or near the Property are not "tributary streams"within the meaning of the Ordinance Code. The Health Services Department disagrees. When Appellant first raised the question of what constitutes a tributary stream, staff did a search of available resources. The term is not defined in the County Ordinance Code or other known County regulation, and to staff's knowledge, the meaning of the term"tributary stream" has not been an issue in any recent cases. Therefore, staff sought the views of other public agencies and searched secondary materials. (HSD Records, pages 381-391.) The definitions were generally consistent, exemplified by the Water Words Dictionary developed by the Nevada Division of Water Resources, which staff understands are the definitions recognized by the United States Department of interior, Coast and Geologic Survey. This source defines "tributary"as: Secondary or branch of a stream, drain or other channel that contributes flow to the primary or main channel. (HSD Records, page 387.) This same source states as follows regarding the term "stream order": (1)Designation of stream segments within a drainage basin; a system of numbering streams according to sequence of tributary size. The smallest perennial tributary is designated as order 1, the junction of two first-order streams produces a stream segment of order 2, etc. ... (HSD Records, page 385.) Board of Supervisors October 28, 2003 Board Meeting Page 5 _ Clearly, the term "tributary" cannot be limited to the segment of a stream that flows directly into the reservoir. It would be contrary to the meaning of the term"tributary's as defined in most if not all sources, and, it would not serve the ordinance's primary goal of protecting the drinking water supply. If Ordinance Code section 420-6.507 is interpreted to apply only to streams that flow directly into San Pablo Reservoir, it would cover San Pablo Creek at its source irrespective of distance from San Pablo Reservoir, but would not cover a "tributary"that joins San Pablo Creek 1001 feet from the reservoir. All of these waters would eventually drain into San Pablo Reservoir, but the waters from the closer tributary would not receive protection because it is not a"tributary" under the Ordinance. This would be the absurd result of the interpretation advocated by Appellant.' It is an interpretation that the Health Officer does not and cannot adopt if he is expected to protect the County's drinking water supply reservoirs. Clearly, the streams that run through and downslope of the Property, which ultimately drain into San Pablo Reservoir, are tributary streams of San Pablo Reservoir. Appellant argues that the Department has issued permits to similarly situated parcels in the past; and that these permits would not have been issued if the Department had interpreted the term"tributary stream" as it now does. (Appeal, Tab 1, Hantzsche Declaration,T 12.)] Staff is not aware of any contrary Department interpretation of "tributary stream." Staff review of Department files of the permits Appellant claims are evidence of a different interpretation is inconclusive at best. (See Declaration of Sherman Quinlan, attached hereto.) In any case, the interpretation that staff has applied is this case is supported by published definitions of the term "tributary stream," and is consistent with the ordinance's mandate of providing maximum protection for drinking water supplies. I.I. Although Not a Requirement of Ordinance Code § 420-6.5071, Waters From the Property Most Certainly Finds Its Way into San Pablo Reservoir. Appellant argues that it is impossible for water to flow from the Property into any local stream located within 1500 feet of the Property. (Attard Appeal, Exhibit I (Hantzsche Declaration,' 13.) Staff disagrees. First, as noted above, there are streams running 'The Department does not assert that distance from a reservoir should be a determining consideration. Although waters evaporate, bacteria does not. Board of Supervisors October 28, 2003 Board Meeting Pae 6 through the Property as well as a"larger" stream 500 feet downslope of the Property, all of which drains directly into San Pablo Creek. The implication of Appellant's consultant's statement is that a septic system on the Property would pose no threat to San Pablo Reservoir. First, under Ordinance Code section 420-6.407, staff does not have to prove that water from the Property flows into San Pablo Reservoir, Under Ordinance Code section 420-6.507, if property is within 1000 feet of a tributary stream, an individual system is not allowed irrespective of proof of runoff into the drinking water supply. To require proof of impacting the reservoir would create administrative hardships that will inevitably result in situations that threaten our water supply. That would not serve the purpose of the ordinance, which is to provide maximum protection for drinking water supply reservoirs. However, in this case, County and East Bay Municipal Utility District ("EBMUD") staff have no doubt that waters from the Property flow into San Pablo Creek and then into San Pablo Reservoir. The configuration of the terrain is such that all of the surrounding waters tend to be channeled down into the bottom of the canyon where the Property is located. (Cervantes Declaration,¶ 7.) It is that obvious configuration that caused staff to investigate the probable location of the stream(s) found running through the Property. (Cervantes Declaration,¶¶ 7, 8, 9.) In fact, EBMUD owns land upslope of the Property as part of San Pablo Reservoir's watershed property. (Cervantes Declaration,¶6, see photos in HSD Records, pages 220.) In addition, two letters exemplify EBMUD staff's concern about waters flowing from the Property. In an August 28, 2003 letter to Appellant (HSD Records, page 307), Watershed and Recreation Division Manager Stephen E. Abbors expressed concern about grading that Appellant did to the Property, that would result in runoff that leads under Highway 24 to San Pablo Creek. As the letter concludes in the second to the last sentence, This is of particular concern to EBMUD as the sediment laden runoff from the property ultimately discharges to a public drinking water supply. And, in a letter dated September 18, 2003, EBMUD Water System Manager Richard G. Sykes expresses support for the County's 1000-feet from a tributary stream requirement as being a "positive and constructive measure helping to protect the drinking water supply from contamination." (HSD Records, page 306, last paragraph.) Board of Supervisors October 28, 2003 Board Meeting Page 7 E. The Property Probably Does Not Meet Current Requirements for a Septic System. Appellant's consultant states that the Property is suitable for a septic system, as follows: 13. The property at 1000 Fish Ranch Road has been investigated and determined to have suitable soils, percolation and land area for an onsite sewage disposal system, and will pose no threat to public health or water quality. It is physically impossible for water to flow from the proposed sewage- disposal area into any local stream located within 1,500 feet of the system. (Appeal, Tab 1, Hantzsche Declaration, 13.) In fact, an application for a system has not been submitted and the Property has not been evaluated for suitability of any proposed system. However, it is visibly obvious that it would be difficult to meet current Health Officer Regulations. For example, under the Health Officer's Regulations:' *An individual system may only be placed where the soil is natural and undisturbed. (Health Officer Regulations, § 420-6.602.) Appellant has graded most if not all of the Property. (HSD Records, pages 231-233, 307.) *The Property is small - only about 150 feet wide at its widest. It is difficult to conceive how it can accommodate a leachfield, a replacement leachfiled, and meet various setback requirements, a few of which are: 50 feet from property line; 100 feet from wells, 100 feet from culvert; 25 feet between drainfield and new fill. (Health Officer Regulations, Appendix 1, Setback Requirements.) Mr. Hantzsche's statement that the Property is suitable for a septic system is curious, at best. 'The Health Officer's Regulations for Subdivisions and Individual Systems was established effective on October 17, 2000 pursuant to the authority granted in County Ordinance Code section 420-6.307. It consists of 37 pages of regulations plus 16 appendixes. The Health Officer's Regulations have not be copied for the Board at this time but will be provided upon request. Board of Supervisors October 28, 2003 Board Meeting Pane 8 F. None of Appellant's Other Arguments Have Merit. 1. Adoption of a Moratorium Emphasizes the Importance of Not Allowing Ser►tic Systems Near Reservoirs in Areas Where There Have Been Many Failures. Appellant's consultant argues that the adoption of septic system moratorium areas near drinking water supply reservoirs within one and two years of adoption of the 1000 feet from tributary stream requirement supports an interpretation that the term"tributary stream" could only refer to a stream that flows directly into a reservoir(and not a stream that flows into a stream that flows into a reservoir), because there are so many small streams in the Canyon and El Toyonal areas that the 1000 feet from tributary stream requirement would effectively prohibit any new septic system in the area. (Appeal, Tab 1, Hantzsche Declaration,¶¶9,10.) This view is not supported by the express language of the Ordinance Code or the Moratorium Declarations, and is not supported by anything in the record. The Canyon area moratorium was declared because of it's proximity to a drinking water supply reservoir (San Leandro Reservoir) and because so many existing systems were failing. (HSD Record, page 392.) A similar declaration was made for the El Toyonal area, which is close to San Pablo Reservoir. A better explanation is that because these areas of poor soil were so close to a reservoir, septic systems should be prohibited in their entirety without need for staff to measure distances. That would be the interpretation that is consistent with providing maximum protection to drinking water reservoirs. 2. The Subdivision Approval was Nota Tacit A reement that the Prov Could Legally Support an Individual System. Appellant's consultant argues that at the time of the creation of the subject lot (Property), the creation of the subdivision required review and approval by the Health Officer"relative to compliance with applicable County requirements for onsite sewage disposal." (Appeal, Tab 1, Hantzsche Declaration,'( 1 l.) However, the Conditions of Approval for MS 72-84 stated that: 5. Prior to issuance of building permits the permit applicant shall be required to submit evidence of the availability of a water supply and sewage disposal system acceptable to the County Health Department. (HSD Record, page 416.) Board of Supervisors October 28, 2003 Board Meeting Page 9 - Cather requirements were imposed as a condition of filing the parcel map (HSD Record, page 416, condition 6),but sanitation and water were not among them. These requirements were placed as conditions upon obtaining a building permit,which is what Appellant now seeks. III. NO PUBLIC AGENCY HAS PROPOSED OWNING OR OPERATING A WATERTIGHT HOLDING TANK SYSTEM ON THE PROPERTY. County Ordinance Code section 620-6.507 would allow sewage to be disposed of from the Property by means of a watertight holding tank system(or better) owned or operated by a presently existing public agency with authority to do so. Appellant has submitted a permit from EBMUD, which allows Appellant to truck septage to EBMUD's facility. This permit does not meet the requirements of section 620-6.507. Permitting the delivery of septage does not constitute owning or operating (and thus being responsible for) a system on the Property. To this date, no agency has agreed to own or operate a watertight system on the property. For all the reasons expressed above, staff asks the Board to uphold the Health Officer's decisions in this case.

I am a State Registered Environmental Health Specialist and am employed by Contra Costa County in the Environmental Health Division of the Health Services Department as a Senior Environmental Health Specialist. 2. I was the staff person assigned the responsibility of investigating whether the parcel known as 1000 Fish Ranch Road ("Property")was suitable for sewage disposal by an individual (septic) system. 3. I have made several site visits to the Property with other Environmental Health Division staff. In accordance with Division protocol, I have taken a number of photographs of the site conditions, including all of the photographs in the "Records From the Health Services Department File" ("HSD Records") submitted herewith, except for the photographs taken by East Bay Municipal Utility District staff. All of the photographs submitted, including those taken by East Bay Municipal Utility District staff, accurately show what their labels indicate they show. 4. I have reviewed the documents to be submitted to the Board of Supervisors in connection with the appeal filed by property owner Tamara Attard, including the staff report. To my knowledge, all factual representations in the staff report are true. 5. I have reviewed the set of documents in the HSD Records. All of the documents in HSD Records are from the Environmental Health Division's file on this case, or are copies of ordinances, regulations or other documents related to this case. In addition: 6. The Property is located within the drainage area (see Ordinance Code section 420-6.105) of San Pablo Reservoir. The East Bay Municipal Utility District owns property Declaration of Michael Cervantes -l- upslope of the Property, to the north and east. 7. The property is part of a "canyon" that eventually drains to San Pablo Creek, which drains to San Pablo Reservoir. In other words, upslope water drains onto the Property, and water from the Property drains to San Pablo geek. 8. Upon first investigating the Property for suitability for a septic system on February 20, 2003, because of the topography, it was immediately apparent that a stream likely existed on the Property. However, I was not able to do a complete investigation on the first visit because I did not have the necessary tools to clear brush to access the area of likely stream.activity. 9. On a subsequent visit with other Environmental Health staff, on April 23, 2003, we found a 3-4 feet wide stream on the property. In addition, we found a 42" culvert which channeled this stream and most of the water that flowed onto the northern part of the property. The southern part of the Property drains to Frontage Load. In addition, there is another "larger" stream that runs along Skyline Boulevard, approximately 500 feet downslope of the property. All waters from the Property and the waters in the larger stream downslope drain into San Pablo Creek. 10. I also researched the property on CCC Navigate (the County's Internet-based GIS program), and found that another stream was shown running along the property line, upslope of the Property. This stream is not visible from the surface, which indicates that this stream has been culverted. 11. Based upon my experience as an Environmental Health Specialist, the research that I have done on this case, and my understanding of the County Ordinance Code and applicable regulations, the streams that run through the Property and the larger stream that is 5001 feet downslope of the property are all "tributary streams" of San Pablo Reservoir within the meaning of the County Ordinance Code. My colleagues and supervisors that visited the property with me (including Richard Lee and Sherman Quinlan) unequivocally support my opinions in this regard. I declare under penalty of penury under the laws of the State of California the foregoing is true and correct.

Leighton on June 30, 1992. The Department has no record of any installation and the permits have expired. I cannot speculate on Mr. Leighton's justification for issuing the permit, but the parcel is more distant from the known tributary streams. 2) A permit was issued by T. Schmidtbauer to D. Uhland on April 9, 1996 and a system was installed. This parcel is a significantly distant and uphill from the property. 3.a) A permit was issued by R. Leighton to J. Lewis on April 16, 1991.

William Alejandro Contra Costa,Environmental Health Division 2120 Diamond Boulevard, Suite 200 Concord;CA.94520 SUBJECT: Contra Costa County Health Code Dear Mr.Alejandra: The East Day Municipal Utility District(EBMUD)is responsible fbr providing public water supply that is safe,wholesome, and potable for 1.3 million people in Alameda and Contra Costs Counties.A,significant portion of the water satisfying the needs of this population is drawn from three major reservoirs now in the midst of ever increasing metropolitan development.Ability to maintain necessary and desirable water quality depends on many factors including control of mutaminant sources. Exercise of development controls through authority of local agencies contributes to source central and is essential to continued protection of our water supply. In this regard,EBMUD supports Contra Costa County in maintaining its planning policy prohibition of septic tarn),,$within 1000 feet of watercourses. (Title 4,Division 420, Chapter 420-6 of the 1983 Ordinance Cade of Contra Costa Count)) Water utilities everywhere rely on redundancy or"multiple barriers" as the comerstone of water quality protection. Among available barriers,watershed protection is universally recognized as the most important and mast effective means of controlling contarriffiants. Literally, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. To this end,EBMUD has since its founding maintained a policy of protecting its 55,000 acres of local watershed and reservoirs as its highest priority water quality control measure. In 1996,the District adapted..the East Bay Watershed Master plan that emphasizes source water protection as its fundamental goal,.Indeed.,drinking water regulation by the°U'SEPA and the State of California emphasizes source water protection as a key element of measures cxitical to water quality control. Among other requirements,the District must produce a watershed sanitary survey and update it every five years.Also,in 2002 EBMUD was required to develop a drinking water source assessment for each water supply. Both of these documents identify septic systems as a significant potential source of contamination- One of two major new regulations recently proposed by the USEPA, the Lon$-term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule(LT2ESWTR),has just been published in the Federal Register (August 11,2003). This rude emphasizes control of Cr)Ttospo?1dium, a protozoan pathogen .S'75 EIEV KM STIWEr. 044ANCI.C4 94fV7.1;R4t+.FAX(OW 287.1$96 - - �.L7.8QX2aG53. OAKLAND CA 8462,!1-10= 000305 -Mr. Williarn,A;lejandre September 19,2003 Daae 2 originating in sewage and animal waste. Septic systems have been identified as sources of such focal contamination in the Bay Area watersheds. Goad management practices and maintenance of effective regulations clearly dictate the continued control of such contamination sources. The Contra Costa County policy prohibition of new septic system within. 1000 feet of a.tributary to a drinking water reservoir is a positive and constructive measure helping to protect the drinking water supply from contamination, The East Bay Municipal Utility District urges that Contra Costa County maintain this policy. If you have any questions regarding our source water protection measures or this later,please contact Mr. Ron Hunsinger,Manager of Water'Quality at(51,0) 287-13"38.EBMUD will be pleased to work xdtl!the County is any practical way to assist in this matter. Sincerely Richard G. Sykes Manager of Water System RGS:R.BH.ar !0013061 EAST BAY .; MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICT WATERSHEDHEACQUARr8PS August 28,2003 CERTIFIED MAIL Nis. Tamara L. Attard 296 Camino Sobrante Orinda, CA 94563 Dear Tamara: This is in response to the two letters you delivered to me on August 11, 2003. In one letter you requested a meeting between Marie Kulka, EBMUD Wastewater Control Representative and Ken Stuart, Director of Contra Costa County Environmental Health Services. In the second letter you noted a 500-foot break in a"conduit"that traverses EBMUD watershed.Property and wanted to meet to discuss the benefits of your proposal that EBMUD fix the pipes. As I told you at our meeting on August 8`h and subsequent phone conversation on August 11`x, I need you to prepare a detailed description-ofboththe proposal for repair of the pipes and your request for management of your septic system. Until I receive those documents from you, I cannot devote additional staff time to this effort. I recently drove up Fish Ranch Road and was concerned to observe the extent of the grading that had been done on your property, especially the large,uncompacted berms that have been established along the uphill lip of the cement V-ditch that runs along the eastern side of Fish Ranch Road. In their present condition these berms,which are already sloughing into the V- ditch, will contribute substantial amounts of soil to the runoff that leads under HWY 24 to San Pablo Creek with the onset of the fall rains. I observed no erosion control measures in place. The San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board(RWQCB) requires a permit for all construction activities that disturb greater than one acre of land. I request that you contact Ms. lolanta Uchman of the RWQCB at(510) 622-2432 immediately to file a Notice of Intent(NOI) and a Storm Water.Pollution Prevention Plan that describes how you will fully mitigate the water quality impacts of the grading you have authorized and performed. This is of particular concern to EBM`L D as the sediment laden runoff from the property ultimately discharges to a public drinking water supply.

County Ordinance Code section 420-6.507 regulates individual systems within a drainage area of a domestic water supply reservoir, as follows: 420-6.507 Individual system near a reservoir,variances. (a)Location. If the parcel or lot is located within a drainage area of a domestic water supply reservoir, any structure requiring disposal of selvage shall be connected to a community sewer collection system. (b) Variances. If a community sewer collection system isnot available the health officer may grant a variance subject to the following: (1) If the parcel or lot is between fifty and one thousand feet from the reservoir or tributary stream a watertight sewage holding tank system., or equal will be required. Such system must be owned or operated by a presently existing public agency having statutory authority to provide such service. (2) Beyond one thousand feet fi-om a reservoir or tributary stream an individual system or other similar acceptable system may be permitted subject to all the conditions specified in Section,420- 6.505.

(Orris, 81-30 § 1, 68-16 § 3, 1752: prior code § 4643: Ord. 1440). This office has been advised that your property at 1000 Fish Ranch Road is between fifty and one thousand feet from a tributary stream of a domestic water reservoir. Under subsection. (b)(2) of section 420-6.507, the Health Officer may grant a variance to the comin unity sewer connection requirement of subsection (a) only if the property is served by a watertight sewage holding tank system, or its equivalent, which system must be owned or operated by a presently existing public agency having statutory authority to provide such service. A permit from EBMUD for you to truck your septage to EBMLTD's waste water treatment plant does not satisfy the requirement ofsubiection(b)(2), that the holding tank system be owned or operated by a public agency.

Attard 296 Camino Sobrante Orinda, CA 94563 Re: Appeal Hearing— 1000 Fish Ranch Road, Orinda, CA APN 265-180-016 Dear Mrs. Attard: On June 27, 2003, I convened an Appeal Hearing on the denial of the variance application for an individual (septic) system on the subject property. The appeal was based on your contention that the Contra Costa County Code allows topographical factors to be considered in the interpretation of the 1,000-foot setback requirements from tributary streams for individual systems. In attendance at the hearing were: Tamara Attard, Applicant Paul Attard, Applicant Michael Lewis, Bayseng Spice Company/Applicant Jim Lewis, Bayseng Spice Company/Applicant Norm Hantzsche, Questa Engineering Richard Lee, Supervising Environmental Health Specialist Jeff Edwards, Senior Environmental Health Specialist Michael Cervantes, Senior Environmental Health Specialist Lillian Fujii, Deputy County Counsel Ordinance Code Section 420-6.507: The County Ordinance Code section in question in this matter is section 420-6.507, concerning individual systems near a reservoir as follows: (a) Location: If the parcel or lot is located within a drainage area of a domestic water supply reservoir, any structure requiring disposal of sewage shall be connected to a community sewer collection system. (b) Variances. If a community sewer collection system is not available the health officer may grant a variance subject to the following: (1) If the parcel or lot is between fifty and one thousand feet from the reservoir or tributary stream a watertight sewage holding tank system, or equal will be required. Such system must be owned or operated by a presently existing public agency having statutory authority to provide such service. (2) Beyond one thousand feet from a reservoir or tributary stream an individual system or other similar acceptable system may be permitted subject to all the conditions specified in Section 4217-6.505.

There is no dispute that the property in question is within the drainage area of a water supply reservoir. The applicants waived anv time limits on this decision. Awlicant Justification for Variance: You provided a presentation on the subject property that included the history of the property, your site evaluation for an onsite wastewater system, a discussion of the 1000-foot setback requirement, a discussion of the term "tributary stream", a discussion of how setback requirements have or haven't been applied, and a summary and conclusions. It was your contention that: I. The site is suitable for a septic system that protects public health and the environment. 2. The site complies with the regulations and you would propose to install a "code- plus" system that is consistent with other approved practices in the area. ?. The proposed system is consistent with the logical intent of the 1000-foot setback requirement. Staff Presentation: Staff pointed out that a more recent investigation has identified another stream that is also close to the proposed individual system. Consequently, we are now aware of at least two tributary streams within one thousand feet of the parcel. Definitions: You presented alternative definitions for terms used in the County Ordinance Code. Inasmuch as the purpose of Chapter 420-6 is to provide maximum protection to the water quality of the waters stored in reservoirs, and section 420-6.507 makes it clear that any variance granted under that section must be considered as an interim method of sewage disposal and should not create situations that may become a menace to the public health, the Health Department broadly construes the terms used in section 420-6.507 to provide maximum protection for water quality for the reservoirs. The United States Department of Interior, Coast and Geologic Survey, recognizes the Water Words Dictionary developed by the Nevada Division of Water Resources, Department of Conservation and Natural Resources as a comprehensive dictionary of water terms. The definitions in question are attached, and provide a basis for the determination of what is a tributary stream. Decision: The individual septic system disposal area indicated on the applicant's plot plan is within 1000 feet of a tributary stream that is located within the drainage area of a domestic water supply reservoir. As specified in Section 420-6.507 of the Contra Costa County Code, the health officer 000 316 may grant a variance to allow a watertight sewage holding tank system. Such a system must be owned or operated by a presently existing public agency having statutory authority to provide such service. Your appeal does not concern such a variance. The Code does not allow the Health Officer to grant a variance to allow an individual system for a parcel or lot that is one thousand feet or less from a water reservoir or tributary stream. thereof. Therefore, I must deny the requested variance. The suitability of the site for an onsite wastewater treatment system has not been determined and would be dependent on the ability of the site to meet all of the permit requirements. This was not the issue of the appeal hearing. Your cooperation has been and is appreciated. Sincerely, Kenneth C.

The variance pertains to the requirement for a 1,000-ft setback from a water supply reservoir or tributary stream. We are serving as-wastewater engineering consultants to Ms. Attard, and our contention is that, in this case the "tributary stream" in question is located approximately 750 feet away and 80 feet above (i.e., higher in elevation) than the proposed sewage disposal-leachfield system, making it physically impossible for water to travel from the septic system to the tributary stream. Common sense tells us that the ordinance requirement (1,000-ft setback) was not likely intended to apply to a situation such as this, where the stream cannot possibly be impacted by the septic system. At the close of your letter you state your denial of the request for a variance, based on what you believe are strict limitations in the County Code pertaining to the 1,000-ft setback requirement. Essentially, you believe the Code does not allow topographical factors to be considered in the 'interpretation of this setback requirement. We respectfully disagree with this interpretation and your decision and, on behalf of Ms. Attard, hereby request an appeal hearing on this matter as provided in the Code. The approl)riate fees for the appeal will be submitted directly by Ms Attard. In your letter you mistakenly refer to the meeting held in your office on May 14, 2003, as an "appeal hearing". In fact, it was simply a short informational meeting to present various background information to you regarding the property and the variance request. If you recall, you had limited time to meet because of another commitment; but you agreed to consider the information, discuss the matter with County Counsel, and to get back in touch with Ms Attard within a few days. Also, at the meeting, Mr. Lee retracted the earlier denial of the variance request he had issued on May 6"' deferring this decision to you. We respect your decision denying the variance request; however, we believe there is substantial evidence in support of our position that we are prepared to present on s Attard's behalf at an appeal hearing. In addition to resolving this particular case, we IR' e.this hearing may be generally beneficial in obtaining needed clarification on this sectt6 ,of the County Code.

Attard 296 Camino Sobrante Orinda, CA 94563 Re: Appeal Hearing - Onsite Wastewater Disposal System 1000-Fish Ranch Road, Orinda, CA APN 265-180-016 Dear Ms. Attard: On May 14, 2003, 1 convened an appeal hearing on this Division's denial of your variance request regarding setback requirements to a water supply reservoir/tributary stream for the subject property. In addition to you, Norm Hantzsche (Questa Engineering.), Jim Lewis, and Richard Lee, Supervising Environmental Health Specialist, were present at the meeting. It is your contention that the proposed site for the onsite wastewater disposal system is 750 feet downhill and 80 feet lower in elevation from the stream that runs across the top of the property. Thus, you claim that the effluent from the drainage field will not physically travel in the direction of the drainage pipe and/or stream thus justifying a variance from the 1000-foot setback requirement of County Ordinance Cone section 420-6.5017(b)(2). County Ordinance Code section 420-6.507 provides as fellows: a) Location. If the parcel or lot is located within a drainage area of a domestic water supply reservoir, any structure requiring disposal of sewage shall be connected to a community sewer collection system. (b) Variances. If a community sewer collection system is not available the health officer may grant a variance subject to the following: (1)'if the parcel or lot is between fifty and one thousand feet from the reservoir or tributary stream a watertight sewage holding tank system, or equal will be required. Such system must be owned or operated by a presently existing public agency having statutory authority to provide such service. (2) Beyond one thousand feet from a reservoir or tributary stream an individual system or other similar acceptable system may be permitted subject to all the conditions specified in Suction 420-6.505.

As you can see, section 420-6.507(b)(2) allows (but does not require) the Health Officer to grant a variance to allow an individual system if the requirements of that section is met; that is, the property must be beyond 1000 feet from any reservoir or tributary stream. The Ordinance Code does not, under any circumstances, allow an individual system if the 1000-feet setback requirement is not met. Therefore, your request for a variance from the 1000-foot setback requirement must be denied. Please contact Richard Lee or me if you have any additional questions. Sincerely,, Kenneth C.

The water quality will not be impacted in any way because the septic field is 750 feet downhill from the pipe opening and it is impossible for the water to drain uphill 750 feet in an elevation of over 80 feet. BBMUD inspected the site and said our septic field would not impact the water quality in any way. The definition of 1000 feet "from" should be further defined to say the distance surface water must travel before entering a steam, or "the distance that surface water can travel before entering into the reservoir".

Thank you for your consideration. Best re ards, Tamara L. Attard 0003 29 Acti on 22 Support Sustainable Agricultural Activities Within. the Corridor Description: Support continued sustainable agriculture activities of the Bayseng Spice Company or,their property above the eastern entrance to the Caldecott Tunnel. Bayseng sustainably harvests bay leaves from the bay forest on its property,grows spices and herbs in the under story of this forest and in small clearings,manages vegetation to reduce fire risks,and processes their harvests in a small facility at the eastern end of Old Tunnel Road,di- rectly adjacent to the Caltrans structure over the east- ern Caldecote Tunnel entrance. These current activities are consistent with both maintaining the ecological func- tion of the Caldecott Corridor and with controlling fire risks. Implementation: Send BaySeng a letter of support consistent with the above. Fiscal Impacts: None. Anticipated results; Perhaps help private landowner to continue current ac- tivities which are consistent with the key objectives out- lined in this Plan.

The owners are proposing a septic system for the above property. ander Contra Costa County Ordinance 420-6.507(b)(2), a variance for a septic system would be allowed if the individual system were beyond one thousand feet from a reservoir or tributary stream. The owners have applied for a variance on April 7, 2003. The fallowing are the results from our site evaluation. The subject property lies at the base of a canyon sandwiched between Isis ridge and Fish Ranch Read, at which Frontage Road is at the southwest end of the property. (See aerial photograph talon 7-6-93). The top of the canyon is where Fish Ranch Road intersects Grizzly Peak.Blvd. East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) owns property located just northeast of Fish Ranch Road and above the subject property. EBMUD, Cal-Trans, and Questa all have stated that the drainage from the subject property does flow eventually to the San Pablo Creek, which ultimately drains to the San Pablo Dam Reservoir. Signs of seasonal streams were found on East Bay Mud property draining into a corrugated pipe in the direction of the subject property. Inspector Jeff Edwards and I located the corrugate pipe but also located a stream approximately 80 feet from the subject property's western property line. We followed the strewn to a reinforced concrete pipe (RCP), which was 750 feet upslope and northwest from the proposed drainfield on the subject property. According to a reap provided by Cal-Trans and by visual observations, the RCP directly connects to storm drains located onto Frontage Road. No other streams were observed east of the RCP and west of Frontage Road. Cal-Trans has stated that a retaining wall is being proposed because of major erosion issues from the Isis Ridge. A Cal-Trans drainage easement located 150 feet west of Frontage Road drains surface runoff from lower end of Isis Ridge to a drainage ditch alongside Fish Ranch Road. A drainage ditch runs alongside Fish Ranch Road with diversion pipes, which drain a portion of the road water onto the subject property. There are also a few seasonal streams running from Isis Ridge and feed into the stream on the subject property. A Questa site review (see Questa report dated 4-10-03) only indicates an unnamed tributary stream located 1,510 feet north from the proposed leachfield. A subsequent site evaluation by Questa was done after the discovery of a stream 750 feet from the proposed drainfield. Questa's report (April 30, 2003) states that the strewn reenters the RCP at roughly 80 feet higher in elevation than the proposed drainfield. Questa is maintaining that"it is physically impossible for water to drain by surface or subsurface route from the leachfield area to this section of open drainage channel." Soil profile and percolation tests were done by Questa(observed by Contra Costa County Environmental Health). The soil profile did not show signs of mottling or high ground 0 1000 Fish Ranch Rd2 000332 _ __ water and the percolation test ranged between 6 and 48 minutes per inch. Evidence of fill material was observed about 600 feet northwest of Frontage Road. according to the owners the upper half of the property was filled in, although the proposed drainfield did not show signs of fill material. 0 1000 Fish Ranch Rd2 TerraServer Image Courtesy 0":"ie USGS Wage 1 of t Send.To Printer Back To TerraServer Change to 11x17 Print Size Show Grid Lines Change to Landscape ZUSGS Oakland, California United States 10 Jut 1993 o' t.5Km U. 1.25Mi Image courtesy of the U.S. Geological Survey U 2003 Microsoft Corporation.

Contra Costa County EnvironrnentA Health Division 2120 Diamond Boulevard,Suite 200 Concord,CA 94520 Subject: Variance Rtxluest for Property on 10(X31 Fish Ranch Read in Or inda.,Califomia;APN 265-180- 016 Tear Richard: This purpose of this letter is to add supporting documentation and clarification to our April 10, 2003,request for a variance regarding setback to a water supply reservoir/tributary stream for the subject property. On April 17, 2(U3, Questa Engineering staff and Michael Cervantes, R.E.H.S., conducted a site inspection and observed a seasonal water course located approximately 2,OW feet upslope and northwest of the proposed leachfaeld. This stream originates in the vicinity of the intersection of Grizzly Peak and Fish Ranch(toad. We found where the steam enters a 36-inch dianwter corrugated metal pipe(CMP)culvert,which appears to have been installed many years ago,possibly at the time the Caldecott Tiamel was constructed. The culvert extends into and through the subject property, ultimately joining; the Highway 24 storm drain system along Frontage fiend, downslope of the property. This is confunied by drawings Obtained from Caltrans. At the time of our April 17`h inspection we concluded that the culvert was likely continuous from 2,000 feet upslope of the ieachfield to the.junction with the storm drain system at Frontage Road. However, on a subsequent site visit(April 2,0),we observed there to be a missing section of culvert where the drainage flows for a distance of approximately 500 feet in an open channel, befare. reentering a reinforced concrete culvert. This open drainage section is on the subject parcel,approximately 750 feet upslope(northwest)of the proposed leachfeld. We estimate tate point where the drainage renters the concrete culvert to be roughly 80 feet higher in elevations than the proposed leachfield arca.Because of the elevation difference, it is physically impossible'for water to drain by surface or subsurface mute from the luchfield as to this section of open drainage channel. Therefore,there can be no impact on the section of"tributary streanf'from the proposed leachfield. As described in our April 10" letter,drainage from the property travels downslope toward Highway 24 and then easterly along the north side of the Highway,before entering a tributary stream.The distance from thee proposed leachfie€d site to a tributary stream that could be impacted by the leachfietd is 1,510 feet. The recently discovered open drainage channel located 750 feet upslope, (80 feet higher in elevation) from the proposed leaachfreld does not qualify as tributary stream that could possibly be impacted by surface or subsurface .nater moverient from the proposed leachfield. Tl-teref= we still beli!pve the project site can safely support an on-site sewage system and warrants a variance to Ordm"ance section 4.20.6.501.

Mr.Richard Lee,R.E.H.S. Contra Costa County Environmental health Division 2120 Diamond Boulevard,Suite 200 Concord,CA 94520 Subject: Septic System Suitability Evaluation and Variance Request for Property on 1000 Fish Ranch Road in Chinda, California,AP1V 265-180-016 Dear Richard: This purpose of this letter is briefly describe the results of the official site review and provide the supporting documentation for a variance for a property within a drainage area as described in Michael Cervantes' letter dated March 28, 2003. An official site investigation for on-site wastewater disposal was conducted by Questa Engineering on April 7, 8 and 9, at the subject property. The soil profiles and percolation tests were observed by Jeff Edwards, R.E.H.S. and Michael Cervantes, R.E.H.S. The lot is currently undeveloped. The purpose of our investigation was to determine the most suitable area and design for a leachfield to serve a farm and farmhouse. SITE REVIEW The project site is 5.14 acres, is gently sloping and overgrown with brush(see Figure 1 for project location). Two soil profile test pits were excavated with a backhoe on April 7,2003,in the proposed leachfield area.The soil profile test pits, T-1 and T-2,were excavated to depths of 71 and 69 inches,respectively.The soils in T-1 and T-2 generally consist of 15 inches of sandy clay loam underlain by gravelly clays.Seven percolation tests were performed in the proposed leachfield area at depths ranging from 18 to 33 inches on April 9, 2003.The tests showed a range from 6 to 48 minutes per inch (MPI), with an average rate of 30 MPI. These rates are all within the acceptable range of 1 to 120 NMI and the soils exhibit suitable depth and texture for sewage disposal under the current Centra Costa County Regulations and are appropriate for the use of a Shallow Trench Pressure Distribution System. Testing was done during wet weather season and no groundwater or evidence of gr• indwater (i.e. mottles) was noted. Based on field measurements the proposed leachfield area is 1,510 feet from ari unnamed tributary stream. VARWNCE It is our understanding, that the subject parcel is located within a watershed for the San Pablo Dam Reservoir, which serves as a public water supply, operated by East Bay Municipal Utility District (ED UD). As such, Contra Costa County Ordinance requires a variance for any onsite septic system in this area.The project site is located at the extreme limit of the watershed, more than 6 miles from the reservoir. Drainage from the property travels down slope toward Highway 24 and then easterly along the north side of the highway,before entering a tributary stream.The distance from the proposed leachfield site to the tributary stream is 1,510 feet.Beyond this point the drainage joins with runoff from the highway,and eventually enters San Pablo Creek,approximately one mile to the east. s We behe ariance is suitable for this site based on the following reasons: 1. The nearest sewer line is approximately two(2)miles away and would require trenching on Highway 24,which makesA nfeasible for the site to be served by public sewer at the present time.There are no plans for sewers to be extrided in the foreseeable future.Section 420-6.507(b). yg,�' 8Box 70356, 122fl Wickyard Cove Rd.Suite 206 Pt.Richmond,CA 94607 T:510/236.6114 F.5101236.2423 E.Questa@QuestaEC.com W % __ Page 2 Mr.Lee April 10,2003 2. The project site and the proposed septic system are greater than 1,000 feet from a reservoir or tributary stream. The project site is approximately 7 miles from San Pablo Reservoir,ensuring that there is virtually no possibility of any drainage or water quality impact on the reservoir. Section 420-6.507(b)(2). 3. The total lot area(more than 5 acres)is greater than the minimum 40,000 square feet.Section 420-6.505(x). 4. The lot complies in all other respects with the requirements of the Environmental Health Division and the regulations issued by the health officer.Section 420-6.505(b)(1). 5. The variance will not create nor contribute to the creation of a public health nuisance. The property is very isolated. The nearest residences or public use areas down-gradient of the site are more than a mile away(dawn Highway 24)in Orinda.Section 4201-6.505(b)(2). Our official site review on the property has identified an area having suitable soils and sufficient space to accommodate an engineered on-site sewage treatment and disposal system that conforms with current requirements in Contra Costa County Regulations. The proposed system would include disposal to a Shallow Trench Pressure Distribution System. Also, as an alternative design, the system would be subject to routine maintenance and inspection under an Operating Permit, as required in the current Contra Costa County regulations. For these numerous reasons,we believe the project site can safely support an on-site sewage system and warrants a variance to Ordinance section 420-6.507. Please call the undersigned if you have any questions or any additional information is required.

The above property is within the drainage area of the San liable Reservoir, therefore any sewage disposal shall be connected to a community sewer collection system as per Contra Costa County Ordinance section 420-6.507 and as discussed on the site evaluation on February 20, 2003. At this current time our office has no record of a 'variance for this property. Until this office receives a variance from the health officer no septic system can be installed. The soil profile conducted on March 24, 2003 showed fill material from the first seventeen inches of topsoil. Individual systems shall only be permitted in natural undisturbed ground areas. Modifying, cutting, beaching or altering in any way, a site being considered for placement of an individual system, shall_invalidate the site for consideration of an individual system. If another soil profile is conducted it shall be in an undisturbed area. The above profile also revealed that a standard septic system would not be allowed because of ani impermeable sail layer starting at forty-three inches below ,ground surface (b.g.s.) At that time it was discussed that you obtain a consultant who could design an alternative septic system. Refer to Contra Costa County regulations section 420-6.634 for alternative septic system requirements. You inquired about the use of a FAST aerobic system, currently aerobic systems are not allowed for new constructions only repairs. East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) has stated that the above property is in the middle of a .drainage area. Be aware that you may continue through a soil profile and percolation test but that no septic installation will be allowed without a variance from the health of l-cer.

Nye 'Lane, Room 246 000381 WATER WORDS DIVISION OF WATER PLAIVINING Transport----Conveyance of solutes and particles in flow systems. Transport Capacity—The ability of a stream to transport a Suspended Load,expressed in terms of the total weight of the suspended particles. Trap — A device for sealing a passage against the escape of gases, especially a U-shaped or S-shaped bend in a drainpipe that prevents the return flow of sewer gas by means of a water barrier. Trap Efficiency(of Reservoirs)----The ratio of sediment retained within the reservoir to the sediment inflow of the reservoir expressed as a percentage. Trash Rack--(1)A barrier placed at the upstream end of a culvert to trap debris but allow water to flow through. (2)A screen located at an intake fixture of a dam spillway or other such conduit to prevent the ingress of debris. Travertine--- A form of calcium carbonate (CaCO3), such as aragonite or calcite, that is precipitated out of hot mineral springs as it coots upon reaching the ground surface. Travertine becomes colored by minerals in the water and by biological action and is sometimes quarried for use as decorative stone. Also see Tufa. Tray Toyer—(Air Quality)An air pollution control device in which contaminated air is passed through a tower containing substances(packing)possessing large surface area. Water is passed over the packing material in a countercurrent fashion, i.e., in a direction opposite to the passage of the air, and the air contaminants are then absorbed into the liquid. Also referred to as absorption Tower,Packed Tower,or Spray Tower. Treated(Wastewater)Effluent---Water that has received primary,secondary,or advanced treatment to reduce its pollution or health hazards and is subsequently released from a wastewater facility after treatment. Treatment—Any method,technique,or process designed to remove solids and/or pollutants from wastestreams and effluents. Also see Pretreatment,Primary Wastewater Treatment,Secondary Wastewater Treatment,and Tertiary Wastewater Treatment. Treatment Facility—Any places)where a community water system or Non transient-Noncommunity Water System alters the physical or chemical characteristics of the drinking water. Chlorination may be considered as a function oI a Distribution:System. Treatment Plant—A structure built to treat wastewater before discharging it into the environment. Treatment Tank—A water-tight tank designed to retain sewage long enough for satisfactory bacterial decomposition of the solids to take place. Septic Tanks and Aerobic Sewage Treatment Tanks are examples. Tree—A woody plant which at maturity is usually o meters(20 feet) or more in height and generally has a single trunk, unbranched for 1 in or more above the ground, and a more or less definite crown; e.g.,red maple(Acer rubram),northern white cedar(Thaya occidentalis). Tree Line --- The dividing point, caused by charging latitudes or altitudes, between areas with environmental conditions supporting trees and those that do not. The tree line in North America defined by latitude stns across northern Canada. Tree lines also exist at lower latitudes because of the altitudes in such places as in the Rocky Mountains and the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Trellis Pattern—A roughly rectilinear arrangement of stream courses in a pattern reminiscent of a garden trellis, developed in a region where rocks of differing resistance to erosion have been folded,beveled,and uplifted. Tremie—A device.used to place concrete or grout under water. Trend---(1)A statistical term referring to the direction or rate of increase or decrease in magnitude of the individual members of a time series of data when random fluctuations of individual members are disregarded. (2) A unidirectional increasing or decreasing change in the average value of a variable. Trespass---Any voluntary transgression of law or rule,as to enter wrongfully upon another's land or to infringe upon another's rights to use water. Tributary—(1)A stream which joins another stream or body of water. (2)A stream or other body of water,surface or underground,which contributes its water, even though intermittently and in small quantities, to another and larger stream or body of water. Trickle—To flow or fail in drops or in a thin stream. Trickle Channel—A longitudinal channel constructed along the center and lowest part of a channel or through a detention or retention facility and intended to carry low flows. Also referred to as a Cunette. Trickle (Drip)Soil Absorption System—A shallow slow rate pressure-dosed system used for land application of treated wastewater, particularly under soil conditions unsuitable for normal septic tanks and gravity-fed soil absorption systems. In agriculture, drip soil irrigation systems irrigate crops by means of a network of shallow underground pipes fed by a pump. Such a system conserves water used in crop irrigation by applying it at a controlled rate in the root zone,minimizing evaporation and percolation losses. In the drip soil absorption system, the filtered effluent is delivered via supply lines to a subsurface drip field consisting of parallel rows of polyethylene tubing,known as dripper lines.

Storm seepage is usually part of the direct runoff. Also referred to as Interflow. Storm Sewer—A sewer that carries only surface runoff, street wash, and snow melt from the land. In a separate sewer system, storm sewers are completely separate from those that carry domestic and commercial wastewater (sanitary sewers). Contrast with Combined Sewer. Storm Surge---The rise in the level of the ocean that results from the decrease in atmospheric pressure associated with hurricanes and other storms. Stormwater Drainage System ----Man-made and natural features which function as a system to collect, convey, channel,hold, inhibit,retain,detain,infiltrate, or divert stormwater runoff. Stormwater Runoff-----The water and associated material draining into streams, lakes,or sewers as the result of a storm. Stoss_...Facing the direction from which a glacier moves.

Strand Line,also Strandline—A shoreline,especially one marking an earlier and higher water level, as caused by a decline in the surface waters of a lake. Strata---(Geology)Distinct horizontal layers in geological deposits. Each layer may differ from adjacent layers in terms of texture,grain size,chemical composition,or other geological criteria. The term is also applied to layering of other material such as the atmosphere. Stratification—The arrangement of a body of water,such as a lake,into two or more horizontal layers of differing characteristics, such as temperature,density, etc. Also applies to other substances such as soil and snow,etc. Stratification----(Statistics)The subdivision of aPopulation into groups or strata,each of which is more homogeneous in respect to the variable being measured than the population as a whole.

Stratum—A horizontal layer or section. Stratus----A low altitude cloud typically resembling a horizontal layer of fog. Also see Cloud. Stream—A general term for a body of flowing water;natural water course containing water at least part of the year, In Hydrology,the term is generally applied to the water flowing in a natural channel as distinct from a canal. More generally, as in the term Stream Gaging, it is applied to the water flowing in any channel,natural or artificial. Some classifications of streams include,in relation to time: [i] Ephemeral Streams—Streams which flow only in direct response to precipitation and whose channel is at all times above the water table. [2] Intermittent or Seasonal Streams—Streams which flow only at certain tunes of the year when it receives water from springs,rainfall, or from surface sources such as melting snow. [3] Perennial Streams—Streams which flow continuously. And,in relation to ground water: [4] Gaining Streams—Streams or a reach of a stream that receive water from the zone of saturation. Also referred to as an Effluent Stream. [5] Insulated Streams Streams or a reach of a stream that neither contribute water to the zone of saturation nor receive water from it. Such streams are separated from the zones of saturation by an impermeable bed. 318 U0038,i DIVISION OF WATER.PLANNING WATER IVaRDS '61 Losing Streams—Streams or a reach of a stream that contribute water to the zone of saturation.

Streambank Erosion----(1)The wearing away of streambanks by flowing water. (2)The removal of soil particles from a bark slope primarily due to water action. Climatic conditions, ice and debris, chemical reactions, and changes in land and stream use may also lead to bank erosion. Streambank Erosion Control---Vegetative or mechanical control of erodible stream banks,including measures to prevent stream banks from caving or sloughing, such as Jetties,revetments,riprap and plantings necessary for permanent protection. Streambank Erosion Damage—Value of land areas destroyed,reduced value of land due to threat of future erosion, and the destruction or damage of wildlife habitat,buildings,bridges,utilities, or other structures. Streambank.Protection'Works—Structure place on or near a distressed stream bank to control bank erosion or prevent failure. Streambanks—The usual boundaries,not the flood boundaries,of a stream channel. Right and left banks are named facing downstream(in the direction of flow), Streambank Stabilization--Natural geological tendency for a stream to mold its banks to conform with the channel of least resistance to flow. Also the lining of streambanks with riprap,matting,etc., to control erosion. Streambed—The channel through which a natural stream of water runs or used to run,as a dry streambed. Streambed Erosion—The movement of material, causing a lowering or widening of a stream at a given point or along a given reach. Stream Capture---The process whereby a stream rapidly eroding headward cuts into the divide separating it from another drainage basin,and provides an outlet for a section of a stream in the adjoining valley. The lower portion of the partially diverted stream is called a Beheaded Stream. Also referred to as Stream Piracy. Stream Channel--The bed where a natural stream of water runs or may run;the long narrow depression shaped by the concentrated flow of a stream and covered continuously or periodically by water. Stream Clearance—The removal of natural or man-caused debris from stream channel areas by mechanical means.

Stream,Effluent—A stream or reach of a stream fed by ground water. It is also referred to as a Gaining Stream. See Stream. Stream,Ephemeral—A stream that flows only in response to precipitation. See Stream. Strearnflow—The discharge that occurs in a natural channel. Although the term"discharge"can be applied to the flow of a canal,the word streamflow uniquely describes the discharge in a surface stream course. Streamflow is amore general term.than.`.`runoff' as strearnflow maybe applied.to discharge whether.or not its,is,,affecte.d by, diversion or regtilation. Streamflow Depletion--The amount of water that annually flows into a valley or onto a particular land area minus the amount that flows out of the valley or away from the particular land area. It is also the amount of water taken from a stream. Streamflow Regulation----The artificial manipulation of the flow of a stream. Streamflow Routing—A technique used to compute the effect of channel storage on the shape and movement of a ±food wave.

(2)The path followed by a particle of water as it moves through a saturated soil mass. 319 0 0 U 3 8 4 WATER R ORDS DI''ISION OF WATER PLANNING Stream.Load—All the material transported by a stream or river either as visible sediment(Bed Load and Suspended .Load)or in solution(Dissolved Load). Stream Order— (1) Designation of stream segments within a drainage basin; a system of numbering streams according to sequence of tributary size. The smallest perennial tributary is designated as order 1,the junction of two first-order streams produces a stream segment of order 2,etc. (2)A method of numbering streams as part of a drainage basin network as adopted by the U.S. Geological Survey(USGS). The smallest unbranched mapped tributary is a first-order strearn,the stream receiving the tributary is a second-order stream,and so on,with the main stream always of the highest order. It is usually necessary to specify the scale of the map used, as a first-order stream on a 1:62,500 map may be a third-order stream on a 1:12,000 map. Tributaries which have no branches are designated as of the first order,streams which receive only first-order tributaries are of the second order,larger branches which receive only first-order and second-order tributaries are designated third order,and so on,the main stream being always of the highest order. Stream,Perennial—A stream that flows continuously. See Stream. Stream Piracy--The process whereby a stream rapidly eroding headward cuts into the divide separating it from another drainage basin, and provides an outlet for a section of a stream in the adjoining valley. The lower portion of the partially diverted stream is called a beheaded Stream. Also referred to as Stream Capture. Stream Power—Measure of energy available to move sediment, or any other particle in a stream channel. It is affected by discharge and slope. Stream Reach,---The continuous portion of a stream channel and adjoining floodplain from one selected point to another, usually measured along the Thalweg of the channel. Stream Segment—(Water Planning)Surface waters of an approved planning area exhibiting common biological, chemical, hydrological, natural, and physical characteristics and processes. Segments will normally exhibit common reactions to external stresses,for example,discharge or pollutants. Streamside Management Zone (SMZ) —A designated zone that consists of the strearn and an adjacent area of varying width where management practices that might affect water quality, fish, or other aquatic resources are modified. It is a zone which acts as an effective filter and adsorptive zone for sediment;maintains shade;protects aquatic and terrestrial riparian habitats;protects channel and streambanks;and promotes floodplain stability. The zone may be wider than just the riparian area. Stream Terrace—(1) A surface representing remnants of a stream's channel or flood plain when the stream was flowing at a higher level. Subsequent downward cutting by the stream leaves remnants of the old channel or flood plain standing as a terrace above the present level of the stream. (2)A transversely level erosional remnant of a former axial stream or major desert stream floodplain that slopes in the same direction as the adjacent,incised stream,and is underlain by well sorted and stratified sand and gravel or by loamy or clayey sediments. Stream,Underground----A subsurface stream.which has all the characteristics of a water-course on the surface— a definite channel with bed and banks,a definite stream of water,and a definite sources)of supply. Stream,Warmwater---A stream that supports a warmwater fishery,usually including largemouth bass and sunfish, typically with spawning temperatures in.excess of70°F(21'C). . Streeter-Phelps Equation --- (Water Quality) A means of predicting the effects upon dissolved oxygen levels of organic loading to a stream based on the deaeration and reaeration rates,and resulting in an Oxygen Sag Curve. Stress—Growing conditions that endanger a plant's health. Examples include lack of water,too much heat,wind or moisture,or low temperatures. The stressful condition varies according to the particular plant and its needs. Stressed Waters—A portion of an aquatic environment with poor species diversity due to human actions. If a facility applying for a water permit will discharge into an aquatic system that is stressed by the actions of others,then it will not be held responsible for the existing poor conditions but must demonstrate to the environmental agency issuing the permit that further degradation will not occur as a result of its effluent. Striation One of a number of parallel lines or scratches on the surface of a rock that were inscribed by rock fragments embedded in the base of a glacier as it moved across the rock. Stringer---A long,narrow line of vegetation, usually following a stream channel or bottom of a draw. Strip Cropping—Growing crops in a systematic arrangement of strips or bands that serve as barriers to wind and water erosion. Strip Mining-®The process of removing mineral deposits that are found close enough to the surface so that the constriction of tunnels (underground mining) is not necessary. The soil and strata that cover the deposit are removed to gain access to the mineral deposit. The primary environmental concerns related to this technique are the disposition of spoils removed to gain access to the deposit and the scoring of the landscape that remains following the complete removal of the mineral deposit. Water pollution is also a concern because runoff from the 320 00038D y« < }° »« « « 7 © y. . . . . . � . ._. , the other, primarily because of topography as a soil- crown shape.
