(Nonpoint Source Pollution Control � ty � p Program, Proposition 40, 2005-2006 Consolidated Grants Program Funding) (District III&V) DATE: February 12, 2008 PAGE: 2 of 2 FISCAL IMPACT: There will be no impact to the general fund. The costs associated with this contract will be paid with Proposition 40 Grant Funds. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND: In 2001,the Contra Costa County Watershed Program(CWP),a division of the Public Works Department and lead agency for the KDC Program, acknowledged the immediate need to enhance and protect the Delta's water quality from Nonpoint source (NPS)pollution. The primary mission of the CWP is to focus on reducing and eliminating potential sources of NPS pollution for the preservation and protection ofboth human and environmental health. In a world of constrained budgets,increasing awareness about the importance of environmental resources protection and the emerging need to meet mounting environmental regulations, the CWP began to explore what was being done within Contra Costa County(County)to address all of these concerns. The need for a clean boating program in the Delta was identified and County staff then developed a proposal for the KDC Program in 2002. The purpose of the KDC Program would be to protect and sustain the Delta's beneficial resources by reducing the cumulative impacts of NPS pollution that may be caused by marina operations and recreational boating. The proposal was submitted to the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) and later funded in 2003 ($965,000 Costa-Machado Water Act of 2000, Proposition 13, Grant Funding). In early 2006, the KDC partners, including representatives from Sacramento, San Joaquin, Solano and Yolo Counties and the City of Stockton, developed a grant proposal, with the County as the lead agency,to expand the existing program model from its previous geographic restriction(Contra Costa) to the entire Delta region. The competitive grant proposal was awarded$1.6 million in Proposition 40 funds by the SWRCB on December 1, 2006. The grant funds provide the resources for additional pollution prevention infrastructure, an expanded education campaign, and a program team to implement Phase II, more formally known as the Sacramento—San Joaquin Delta Watersheds' Boating Program(DBP). The DBP represents Phase II of the County's KDC Program and is expanding the Program throughout the surrounding Delta counties (Sacramento, San Joaquin, Solano, and Yolo). This multi jurisdictional approach will unify a diverse group of Delta stakeholders to integrate regional efforts that prevent NPS pollution in order to protect beneficial uses(drinking water,agricultural irrigation waters, recreation, and preservation of wildlife habitat). The purpose of this contract is to hire Dave DaRold to design and create signage that will be displayed on KDC infrastructure at partnering marinas throughout the Delta. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: The County will be unable to meet the provisions of the contract entered into with the SWRCB for the $1.6 million in Proposition 40 grant funds. This may result in loss of funding for the KDC Program.
