CENTRAL CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT Central Contra Costa Sanitary District September 19, 2018 TO: REAL ESTATE, ENVIRONMENTAL AND PLANNING COMMITTEE FROM: MELODY LABELLA, RESOURCE RECOVERY PROGRAM MANAGER REVIEWED BY: JEAN-MARC PETIT, DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNICAL SERVICES ROGER S. BAILEY GENERAL MANAGER SUBJECT: RECEIVE UPDATE ON THE DIABLO COUNTRY CLUB SATELLITE WATER RECYCLING FACILITY DEMONSTRATION PROJECT Staff would like to share the following updates with the Committee on the various elements of the Diablo Country Club (DCC) Satellite Water Recycling Facility(SWRF) Demonstration Project(Project): Environmental Review • Two Community Input Open House sessions were held in June 2017 at DCC to receive public input on the Project as part of the environmental review process under the California Environmental Quality Act(C E QA). • Many questions were answered by the Central San and DCC staff present. • There was no apparent opposition to the Project and nearby neighbors in attendance were supportive of the proposed location of the SW RF facility in the middle of DCC's golf course. • Comment letters were received from the Town of Danville and Contra Costa County's Environmental Health Department. The Town of Danville was particularly interested in obtaining more project design details. • The Initial Study was completed based on a diversion force main alignment in Diablo Road in the Town of Danville. • Since certain Project details need to be known in order to adequately mitigate environmental impacts, the schedule for completion of CEQA is dependent on the timing of DCC hiring their Design-Build (DB)Team. Having the DB Team weigh in on the mitigation measures will result in a better environmental review process. • Updating the Initial Study will likely be required due to selection of an alternative force main route, at DCC's request. • Following the update of the Initial Study and DCC's hiring of the DB Team, the next step will be to complete the Environmental Impact Report(EIR). DCC's Program Manager • Bert Michalczyk, retired Dublin San Ramon Services District General Manager, was hired as DCC's Program Manager in September 2017 and continues to facilitate the Project on their behalf.
