REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND:
A. On April 10, 2007, the Board of Supervisors declared an emergency and authorized the Chief Engineer to
proceed in the most expeditious manner to repair or replace the Lower Walnut Creek flood control facility as
directed by the US Army Corps of Engineers.
B. Repair status:
The Contra Costa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (District) has prepared the Lower
Walnut Creek Corrective Action Plan and presented this to the US Army Corps of Engineers for consideration
on June 11, 2007. A status report, including this Corrective Action Plan,was presented to the Transportation,
Water and Infrastructure Committee on June 25, 2007. Project plans are being prepared and the District has
begun initial outreach efforts to contractors to generate interest in the project among potential bidders. The
current schedule calls for starting the work in mid-August 2007 and completing the needed interim protection
measures in early November 2007.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Nonconcurrence.of the above recommendation will significantly delay implementation of the needed capacity
improvements in Lower Walnut Creek flood control facility and prevent the District from meeting the correction
schedule required by the US Army Corps of Engineers.
