REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND:
Aliquot Associates provides civil engineering services to the Blackhawk GHAD on an on-call basis. Their work,
during fiscal year 2007/2008 has consisted of on-site surveying for slope investigation projects at Silver Meadow
Townhomes, and the Blackhawk Executive Center; design, mapping and surveying services for Major Project
repairs at Deer Meadow Drive,Deer Meadow Court,Hole#11,and providing ongoing monitoring in areas of study
throughout the District as well as other civil engineering needs as required in executing the work of the District.
Aliquot Associates is actively working on design,mapping and monitoring of several sites and projects within CSA
M-23for the upcoming construction season.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Without Board approval, the District would not be able to continue planning, design, and construction
operations on numerous active repair and monitoring projects, putting the surrounding area slopes at additional
risk for landslides.

District (District). Nomad shall provide environmental analysis, wetland delineation, and will prepare
and submit reports for the Upper Sand Creek Detention Basin Project, located in the unincorporated
area of Antioch, in east Contra Costa County. Dept. Environmental Staff will notify Nomad to commence
work, once the contract is approved by the Board of Supervisors.
PROJECT BACKGROUND/DES.CRIP,TION
Contra Costa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (District) proposes to build a flood
detention basin in the Sand•Creek watershed to attenuate flows from the upper watershed, which will
help provide flood protection for the communities downstream. The project will consist of excavating soil
from a natural grassland to create a basin where water will be held and slowly released to control the
amount of water downstream. An embankment will be constructed that will act like a small dam. Inlet
and outlet structures, an emergency spill way, and an outfall pipe 1,700 ft in length will be constructed. A
portion of.Sand Creek will be lowered„ realigned, and re-vegetated. Other portions of Sand Creek will not
be physically altered, but will lose stream flow.
Upper Sand Creek Detention Basin Project requires environmental analysis. On behalf of the District,the
Dept. shall provide Nomad with a site map to identify the location for environmental analysis for the
project. The Dept. will coordinate the contract work with Nomad in order to conduct the required
environmental analysis and wetland delineation described in the Scope of Work listed below;

also determine the presence or absence of(State and/or Federal)endangered, threatened, or rare listed
plant species(listed)within the project site. Nomad will need to be able to conduct the following types of
studies;
I. Plant Community Assessments
A. Review relevant databases
1. California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) and other relevant databases, including
the California Native Plant Society, etc.
B. Contact local or agency biologists regarding known occurrences of listed species, if warranted.
C. Contact species experts, if warranted.
II. Conduct site visit to characterize plant communities present
A. Conduct walking survey to characterize plant communities including special physical and
habitat features and identify botanical species potentially present at the proposed project site
and adjacent areas.
B. Determine if habitat conditions for any State or Federally listed plant species occur at the
project site or adjacent to it. If so, document specific locations on a map or site plan
C. Identify adjacent land uses and photograph relevant features of the site.
