Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
By Resolution Number (No.) 20-018 (February 25, 2020), the Board of Supervisors (BOS) approved Department of Transportation (DOT) Agreement No. 190088/BOS Agreement No. 20-016 with Schaaf & Wheeler Consulting Civil Engineers to conduct a storm water trash capture feasibility study.
Summary of Request:
On June 1, 2017, the State Water Resources Control Board issued Water Code Section 13383 Order letters (Order) requiring Phase II Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permittees to submit a method to comply with new statewide Trash Provisions. On August 21, 2017, the County notified the State Water Board that the County will comply with the Order by implementing Track 1. By selecting Track 1, the County must install, operate, and maintain Full Capture Systems for the storm drain network that capture runoff from the Priority Land Uses in the MS4 jurisdictional area. DOT has submitted an application for State Water Resources Control Board Storm Water Grant Program funds to design and construct the Fort Bragg area trash capture devices and infrastructure improvements required by the Trash Capture Amendment. The Fort Bragg area improvements are eligible for this grant funding due to the project’s inclusion in the Coastal Mendocino Stormwater Resource Plan. The cost to design and construct the Fort Bragg area improvements is estimated to be $568,551. DOT has requested a local match reduction to only 5% based on the affected area’s status as a severely disadvantaged community. If the grant funding is received, this will leave a local match of approximately only $32,000, which can be met by in-kind match of County staff time and consultant expenses which have already been budgeted and paid in Fiscal Year 2019-2020. DOT is requesting the Board ratify the grant application for State Water Resources Control Board Storm Water Grant Program funds to design and construct the unincorporated Fort Bragg area improvements required by the Trash Capture Amendment to the Phase II Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Permit and authorize the Director of Transportation to accept the grant and execute the grant agreement and sign any other necessary related documents on behalf of Mendocino County if awarded.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not ratify the grant application and do not authorize the Director of Transportation to accept the grant.
