[CDD-CP# 03-58] DA30C (100%), (District III)Project No. 755$-6D8488 DATE: June 8, 2004 PAGE: 2 II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The estimated project cost for the project is $45,000 funded by Drainage Area 30C (100%). III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND: The project is located along Line A of DA 30C in the city of Brentwood,west of Brentwood Boulevard and north of Marsh Creek Channel. The purpose of the project is to modify the existing outlet structure in order to accommodate higher flows during high intensity storms. The project consists of lengthening the existing outlet structure by approximately sixteen feet and slightly angling the structure to allow flows to move through the outlet more efficiently.The existing structure will be trimmed to remove the front wall and parts of the floor slab to provide a clean surface to connect the new section of the structure with dowels. In addition, the top six feet of the side walls of the existing structure will be trimmed off. The new structure will sit on a 12-inch thick reinforced concrete slab. A perforated 4-inch plastic pipe will be buried around the concrete section of the floor slab to provide underground drainage. The pipes will be connected to weep holes at the base of the walls,which will drain into the structure. The perforated pipe will be surrounded by pervious material from the top of the slab to approximately five feet above the slab to improve subsurface drainage into the structure. Construction activities will be in the immediate vicinity of the structure and conducted from top of bank. The project has been determined to be in compliance with the General Plan and is exempt from CEQA. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Delay in approving the projects may result in a delay of design and construction and may jeopardize funding.

Location: The project is located along Line A of DA 30C in the city of Brentwood, west of Brentwood Boulevard and north of Marsh Creek Channel (.figures 1-4). 2. Project Description: The purpose of the project is to modify the existing outlet structure in order to accommodate higher flows during high intensity storms. The project consists of lengthening the existing outlet structure by approximately sixteen feet and slightly angling the structure to allow flows to move through the outlet more efficiently (Fig. 4). The existing structure will be trimmed to remove the front wall and parts of the floor slab to provide a clean surface to connect the new section of the structure with dowels. In addition, the top six feet of the side walls of the existing structure will be trimmed off. The new structure will sit on a 12-inch thick reinforced concrete slab. A perforated 4-inch plastic pipe will be buried around the concrete section of the floor slab to provide underground drainage. The pipes will be connected to weep holes at the base of the walls, which will drain into the structure. The perforated pipe will be surrounded by pervious material from the top of the slab to approximately five feet above the slab to improve subsurface drainage into the structure. Construction activities will be in the immediate vicinity of the structure and conducted from top of bank. During construction, the contractor will implement a dewatering system. The design of the system will be at the discretion of the contractor, but will be reviewed by the County and the California Department of Fish and Game. The repair activity will be kept to the minimum necessary to accomplish the repair, and the work site will be kept clear of construction debris. Environmentally Sensitive Area (ESA) fencing will be installed to clearly define the project limits and impact area. Standard Best Management Practices (BMPs) will be implemented such as locating stockpiles outside of the streamzone, fueling and maintaining equipment at designated staging areas, and maintaining a clean worksite will be employed. Any exposed slopes will be seeded with a mix of native grasses upon completion of the project.

In order to minimize damage to trees, any roots exposed during excavation will be cut cleanly and tree branches and shrubbery may need trimming throughout the project.
