Uilkema, Chair _ o Supervisor Mary N. Piepho, Member C' County S'A'couzi`►Y DATE: November 4, 2008 SUBJECT Consider Delta Water Strategy and Action Plan Documents SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1. APPROVE the attached Delta Strategy and Action Plan. 2. CONSIDER prioritizing primary goals as part of the attached Delta Platform Summary Document. 3. DIRECT the staff planning team to report back to the Board of Supervisors on status and update of the Action Plan every three months, and/or at milestone events as necessary. 4. DIRECT staff to draft a letter for the.Board Chair to county legislators requesting them to ask legislative counsel if the State Department of Water Resources (DWR) has authority to construct a peripheral canal and on legislative requirements for a canal. FISCAL IMPACT: The Delta Strategy represents the entire universe of potential activities associated with the Delta, and represents more activities than existing staff resources could achieve. The activities recommended to be acted on in the Action Plan by staff in the next three months fully utilize current staff resources devoted to the Delta. If additional activities in the Action Plan were to be acted on or implemented, additional staff resources would become necessary or the scope of some of.the recommended activities reduced or some of the recommended activities not acted on. The Transportation Water and Infrastructure Committee (TWIC) also recommends that the Board consider, at some point, the hiring of consultant experts to assist the County on Delta Water issues as identified in the Action Plan.

It became clear that with the Delta Vision and Strategic Planning process coming to a close, our participation is becoming more important in other areas such as the legislative arena (as the Vision and Strategic Plan are implemented), the Bay Delta Conservation Planning process, the Delta Protection Commission's Management Plan Update, and a great number of other projects and programs. In evaluating how the County could operate more effectively, the Board requested several items from staff, including a Strategic and Action Plan, Timeline of events, and a Summary and prioritization of the Delta Water Policy Platform, and referred these items to the Transportation, Water & Infrastructure Committee (TWIC). Staff and Department Heads from the County Administrator's Office, Public Works and the Conservation and Development Department met to preview a draft of the Strategy and Action Plan and to discuss staff resources that could be devoted to this program. Because there are no additional funding sources to take on additional tasks, it was decided to optimize existing staff resources within the three departments with the Department of Conservation and Development being the lead. It became clear that with existing staff resources, all of the items contained in the Action Plan could not be implemented at the same time, therefore a selection process is necessary to help guide staff actions. This report includes the following attachments: 1. Delta Strategy The Delta Strategy outlines the activities the County can take to protect its interests and influence events in order to do so. These activities include responses to the many State projects, programs and initiatives concerning the Delta. The Strategy also recognizes that our activities will be transforming from responding to planning initiatives towards responding more to legislative proposals. The Strategy includes an overarching goal and several objectives and activities to achieve the goal. 2. Action Plan The Action Plan represents the implementation of the Delta Strategy. Each of the strategy objectives and activities are listed with the individual responsible for implementing that particular objective. Staff has indicated which activities would be acted on over the next three months. These activities fully utilize existing staff resources. If the Board chooses to add additional activities for staff over the next 3 months, then additional resources would be needed or some of the recommended activities reduced in scope or some of the recommended activities not acted on. Itis recommended that the Action Plan be updated and brought back to the Board everythree months or as necessary at specific milestone events. 3. Delta Platform Executive. Summary During Board discussion when approving the Delta Platform on August 19, 2008, the Board requested an "Executive Summary" of the Platform. This is a short concise document that Board Members and staff can refer to when articulating our top priority needs and interests. The Delta Platform contains thirteen policy areas and twelve pages of detailed descriptions for each policy area. The summary briefly covers each policy area and indicates why it is important to the County. The summary indicates the top priority items for staff and the Board to focus on over the next several months. .4. Timeline The timeline identifies key State projects, programs and initiatives that are currently underway and will have a.n impact on the Delta and on the County over the next two years. The timeline is divided into near-term events and milestones and long-term events and milestones. The near- term events coincide with the three month activities outlined in the Action Plan.

This chart.underscores how many complex activities are currently being undertaken within the Delta arena. The TW IC met on October 20 and on October 29, 2008 and recommends adoption of the Delta Strategy and Action Plan and the Executive Summary and Priorities Documents. In an attempt to help expedite matters, the TW IC also wanted to clarify existing Board policy as follows: 1)The Chair of the Board may sign a letter from the Board on a subject consistent with established Board policy; 2) The Board may consider adding urgency items to the Board's agenda as necessary. The TWIC also considered recommending the addition of a standing (weekly) addition to the Board's agenda for water and water- related legislative issues, should it be necessary.

Board of Supervisors October 2008 A. Overview There are currently several initiatives directed by the State that will have an impact on the Delta and resultant impacts on Contra Costa County and other Delta counties. These 20 plus initiatives include the Bay-Delta Conservation Plan (BDCP), the State Water Resources Control Board's Bay-Delta Strategic Work Plan, The Delta Protection Commission's Management Plan update and the Delta Vision and Delta Vision Strategic Plan to name just a few. At the conclusion of the Delta Vision process in December of 2008, the Governor will have recommendations from his cabinet on strategies to implement the vision. This will result in a myriad. of legislative proposals and bills to implement the Delta Vision and the BDCP, which includes an isolated water transfer facility (peripheral canal). This strategy will provide a guideline for the. Board of Supervisors and County staff on how to achieve our objectives over the next two years. In the near term, the Delta Vision process will be wrapping up, culminating in a report and recommendations to the Governor from his cabinet (Delta . Vision Committee). That will occur by the end of 2008. The beginning of 2009 will see a large number of legislative proposals to implement various aspects of the Delta Vision. The primary focus for the Delta will shift from the Delta.Vision planning process to a legislative implementation process. In addition, the BDCP process will be determining how much water will need to remain in the Delta to meet endangered species requirements. We will need to push BDCP to include the needs of all Delta eco-system needs and not just endangered species. B.

The Platform represents a consolidation of many Delta-related policis and positions into one document which can be utilized to guide actions and advocacy to (in the broadest sense), promote a healthy Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. . The Delta Water Platform is comprised of fourteen subject areas. Each of these subject categories contains relevant policies and background explanatory language. Each subject category is summarized below: Short Term Actions to be implemented immediately includes a broad range of specific, relatively non-controversial actions to quickly improve the state of the Delta, such as improvements to levees, the fishery, habitat and emergency response. . Conveyance: Through-Delta and Isolated Conveyance; consideration of isolated conveyance must protect and improve the Delta and the entire Bay-Delta ecosystem, include the broadest range of non-biased scientific analysis of impacts, include levee repair and all costs of a facility must be paid by beneficiaries. Water Storage; multi-purpose storage facilities are recommended and groundwater storage preferred to surface storage options. Detailed groundwater studies are recommended. The Delta Ecosystem; protection and restoration of an ailing Delta ecosystem has long been a priority of the Board of Supervisors, including need for.additional scientific research to address fundamental questions, fishery and habitat restoration projects. Water Conservation; landscape and household conservation, maximizing use of reclaimed wastewater, use of meters, and agricultural water conservation are recommended. Governance; a new or improved system of oversight related to ecosystem and water management is necessary. The existing Delta Protection Commission land use governance structure has been successful, requiring no further action. Local Government representation in any governance structure is paramount. Levee Restoration; advocacy for immediate and significant(multi-year) funding and levee repair is a priority, including upgrades to minimum (PL 84 99) standards for all levees, and a higher, 200-year level of protection for communities protected by levees. Stockpiling rock in the Delta specifically for levee repair and continuance of the Long Term Management Strategy(LTMS) are highly recommended. Water Quality,Water Quantity and Delta Outflow; protection and improvement of water quality, quantity and outflow; determination and assurance of adequate water for the delta ecosystem and examination of the State and Federal project operations (including potential for reduced exports) are recommended here. Flood Protection/Floodplain Management; Comprehensive flood management planning throughout the Delta and its watersheds, as well as funding to bring flood facilities to 200-year levels and revenue generation for flood control districts continue to. be of import. Water Rights and Legislative Protections; existing area-of-origin and other water rights protections established for the Delta should be preserved. Regional Self-Sufficiency; all export regions should be implementing all water supply options available to them to reduce stress on the Delta as a limited resource. Emergency.Response; collaborative efforts among the Delta counties to improve emergency response in the region have.been productive and should continue. San Luis Drain/Grasslands Bypass; longstanding opposition to selenium discharges from this project entering the delta and support of in-valley treatment solutions are ongoing. Continued reduction in drainage from the Grasslands Bypass project is also monitored. Climate Change; impacts of climate change must be considered in planning, engineering and construction activities. Priorities for Board Consideration Attached is a matrix whereby criteria was applied to the Platform subject categories to establish priorities of importance to the County for advocacy and other activities. The following questions were posed as follows; 1) Is this issue not being dealt with as part of external ongoing processes consistent 'to a large degree with our goals? If the issue is not being addressed(as indicated by a check-mark), these categories are worthy of further consideration as a priority. 2) Does this issue directly affect the County in some way? 3) Is this issue of indirect importance to the County? 4) Are there many other (external) advocates for our position on this issue? If so, we r may not need to expend resources here. 5) Are there few or no other advocates for our positions on this issue? 6) Does our position on this issue serve a multi-purpose function? Several of our issue areas are quite interrelated, therefore providing multiple benefits for time spent 7) Is this issue of primary importance to our allies? As you can see from the attached matrix, the priorities become more evident when one considers the subject areas where the County is more directly affected, which are .consistent with the subject areas where there are few or no other advocates, and where a multi-purpose function is also achieved. These areas are also consistent with areas of interest of our working partners. Priority subject areas (in accordance with criteria examined) are as follows (not in priority order). Short-term actions Ecosystem Water quality, quantity, outflow Conveyance Levee Funding, repair Governance. The first three subject areas (ecosystem, water quality, quantity, outflow and Conveyance) are so inextricably linked that the Transportation; Water& Infrastructure Committee (TWIC) recommends that they be considered as one item. The subject of salinity intrusion into the Delta, a phenomenon that occurs with a levee break (or multiple breaks), was a recurring theme of concern at the TWIC meetings. Because salinity intrusion is a component of both the water quality and levees priorities, it was not called out specifically here. a6uey3 alew110 .N uieaa sink ueS -w asuodsab A3uafi.aaw3 I •L Acivaiai}}ns °r -leas leuolBaa -}I v uoi1304oad = uoilelsi6a-1 x x x x c '8 s4yCib .IaieM 'r ea Juawa6euew uiejdpooId/uoiP84oJd X X X E Poo1=1 I moigno `f4pntj `41juent) aa}eM .H X X X X uoi}eJo}saa aana-1 •o x X x m x aaueuaanoo •. x x x x X w E uoilen.iasuoa aajeM •3 O eta co uoi}oa}oad tuNsAso33 'a x x X X C) 0 a - oBeao4s aajeM •a � U aaueAanuoa •8 X x X x x Y o sIuawanoidwi wjal-:POLIS •V x x x x x E E L Ln y.+� LI.I a 0 :5C`'L aM c 0U O N O cOLOO3 d n Uc6 C: (D C� � � � � Q..
