Vi9.blo and Locust Street Walnut Creek, California April 24,1947 ,}entlemen: Enclosed is the pernÜt granted your Board today by the State Department of Public Heal th uncler the Health and S~,i'ety Code for construction and oper'ation of sewa;ß treatIilent works and disposal of oxidizin¿ pond effluent to ~jalnut Cr'eek ner th of Arnall;, Hi;;hway. 05 01 47' . '79 "E:!.'1e :Uepal.,tr.ien~ is ke enly aware of the need for sewers allover tLe Dis tri ct to serve exis tinL and poteutoal housine developments where sewace overflow to private lands, public roads and water courses is a continual threat, and to pI'otect vvatershed lands tributary to drinking water supply reservoirs. 'J.'he permit is therefore bein::; sent you at this time with a special sense of satisfaction at the prospect of an earl"JT clean-up. lIThe ever present menace to public health from sewage over- flow on individual premises andt;he repugnant thought of small children and family pets playing in streams of sewace polluted water has hung over the citi~ens living in the area for many years. This Department has worked closely with the local health department to obtain temporary relief by temporary means. During the war and post-war peri ods the problems have increased at a rate far beyond the means available for effective control. ~ N -.::rt "";> CQ « "All who have studied the situation in Central Contra Costa County realize that the only satisfactory sewage disposal for the area is a district system with disposal to the Bay or to isolated undeveloped lands near its shores. The project pro- posed is a logical first step in the solution of the critical problem and lends itself to extension by the District, either alone or jointly with adjacent areas as population and assessed valuation increase. "It is our sincere belief that the forthcoming bond election will be carried by the voters of the District and will serve as a stimulus to continued sound development of this area. Very sincerely yours /s/ VHlton L. Halverson, M.D. Director of' Public Health.1t P ERr,IIT II State of California Departn~ent of Public Health April 24,1947 Bo~rd of Directors Celìtral Contra Coste- Sanitary District Veteran's Building kt. Diablo and Locust Street Walnut Creek, Cal ifornia C+ent lelllen : Subje ct : Application for Fermi t to Const ruct 6ewage 'rreatment Works to Serve Central Contra Costa Sffilitary District "Application of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District dated February 13, 1947 to the State Board of Public Health of the State of California for pe nlli t to construct B.nd operate new sewaGe treatr:lent Víor'~~,s and to dispose of effluent to Wal- nut Creek north of Arnol~ HiGhway has been considered by the State De:;>,] :c:tment of Public Health. "T~~_pro.iect ,_applie~for is to serve the area in and ad- jacent to the City of Walnut Creek, Saranap, Lafayette, Moraga ani Orinda, all located in the Central Contra Costa Sanitary Distr'ict. ,. " .. " ; ,_n 05 01 47 80 "Analysis of' the project is based on preliminary reports and plans submitted by the District and upon data secured independently by the State Department of Public Health. The Ci ty of ~valnut Creek now has a badly overloaded sewa,ge treat- ment works, including an Imhoff tank and oxidizing ponds. Other areas have private or individual systems in densely built sections and sewa~e overflow to land, roads and water- ways is a frequent occurrence. IVloreover, residential con- struction in 'both new and old subdivisions is pr'oceedine; as rapidly as supplies of materials and labor permit. The project is necessary to provide sewage disposal for the entire area and to comply with the provisions of the Health and Safet:y Code. In analyzing the project we find: "Popula tion wi thin the Sanitary District is estimated a.t present to be 25,000. Design of' the main sewers is based on ultimate total population of 25°,000. Initial plant con- struction will be designed for 45,000 with provision for duplicating all units to provide for 90,000. These appear to be reasonable bases for design. "Sewa&e flow has been e stima ted for design pur'poses at 100 gallons per capita per day, or a total of 4.5 million gallons daily to be treated at the plant. Maximum hourly rates have been assumed at 150 percent of average. This is a very low peak flow as compared with ex)erience in other sewer s~rstems in the State, but is considered reasonable in this case on account of the long distance from the head of the s-y stern to the trea tment plant si te. "Industrial wastes are limited to those from one small tomato canñery at v~alnut Creek and the usual laundries. The canner,? waste is estiraa.ted as equivalent to sewage from a population of 4,200. The Contra Costa County Planning Com- mission is attempting to keep all heavy waste producing industries along the waterfront; hence, no addi tional indus- trial loads are anticipated within the District. tlPumJ.1?!.ng. Stations are to be located at Orinda, at Orinda Junction and at the sewage treatment works. Exact locations have not been established and these must be checked for adequate control of nuisance before construction. "Treatment plant units designed for 45,000 would normally serve for several years in the future. However, in view of the phenomenal growth of' this district, the design ca:9acity may be reached in a very short time. Provision has, therefore, been made for duplicating all units of the plant. Trœ treat- ment works will consist of grit removal units, Parshall flumes for me asurement of flow, comminutor, air agitation for floc- culation and odor control for a period of 30 minutes and pr'imary sedimentation for a period of 1.5 hours, followed by oxidation ponds with a detention period of 30 days. Sludge will be digested in two-stage units havinG a capacity of 2.4 cubic feet per person with gas collection and heating of the primary digester. Sludge drying beds are designed for 0.5 square foot per person. 'l'he sludge dryine: beds are only half' the size found necessary at most plants in the State. Other units of the plant conform to usual desißn criteria.. "Location of the proposed treatment works is north of Arnold Hic;hway and about 1500 feet east of the Pacheco-Martinez Road. P~Rnt units will be within 300 feet of the Arnold Highway and odor control may be necessal~ to prevent nuisance to the traveling public. At least provision should be made for housing all units in the future if other odor control measures fail. The proposed aeration of sewa¿<ß a."leB,d of primaty sedimentation may minimize the odors and make the plant site tenable. 05 01 4'l 81 "Effluent disposal Hill be to vlalnut Creek about 2000 feet north of Arnold Highway. The creek carries. high flood flows in winter but has no u9land flow in sumraer. It is important, therefore, that only fully oxidized effluent be discharged to the stream in the dry season. Ultimately, when the taxing power of the District is sufficient to finance the work, it is proposed to discharge effluent to Suisun Bay at q point just upstream from the Southern Pacific Railway Bridge at Martinez. That location would be a much better point of effluent disposal than the one proposed and the District should make plans to extend its outfall to the Bay as soon as financià arranGements can be worked out satisfactorily. ~ C\l ~ ""';> CO <: "It is concluded that the purposes of the Health and Se.fet-y CoQe, with respect to the disposal of sewage, can be accomplished by the project applied for and that the project is necessary. F'urther, it wi 11 accomplish a much needed clean-up of watershed lands above water supply reservoirs, and correct existing con- ditions of sewa¿e overflow to private property, public roads and waterways. n'iii th the foregoing findings in mind, permi t is herewith Granted to the Central Contra Costa Sanita~J District as applied for, said permit beinc subject to the following conditions: "(1) No sewage, sewa¿e effluent or slud~e, or impure water, gas, vapors, oils, acids, tars or any matter or substance offensi ve, injurious, or dangerous to heal th sb,all be dische,rged or di sposed or into Walnut Creelc; (2) Fecal matter, sewage, gre3.se, garbage, solid matter, slud[e or oily sleek recoznizable as of sewa~e origin from the sewerage system of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District shall not be permitted to be visible alonE:; the ba..Ylks of ~ialnut Creek or in its waters; (3) There shall be no noxious or offensive odor, jases, or fumes, or sewage orisin in the water or alone the GarneS of \1Íalnut Creek, nor in thE; air outside the tracts of land upon \ihich puyaping stations and said sewa¿e treatment plant are to be located, .such that they 111a:- constitute a public nuisance.
