ISSUE
On February 18, 2021, the Board adopted Resolution No. 2021-014 proclaiming it was in the best public
interest for Central San to immediately replace the subject sewer prior to final paving of the public roadway
in Orinda. It is a statutory requirement that in such a case that the declaration shall confirm every 30 days
until the work is deemed complete.
BACKGROUND
The existing sewer located within the public right-of-way along EI Toyonal Road in the City of Orinda (City)
requires immediate replacement. This sewer is a 6-inch diameter clay pipe, is approximately 1,400 lineal
feet, and was originally installed in 1950.
It has come to the attention of the Collection System Operations Department (CSOD) and Capital
Projects that the East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) hired a contractor, Teichert Construction
(Teichert), to install two water mains on EI Toyonal. EBMUD's project plans to re-pave EI Toyonal in April
of this year. During the work performed by Teichert, several sections of Central San's sewer were
exposed and inspected by CSOD. The condition of the sewer is deficient and replacement before
EBMUD's paving was recommended by staff and authorized by the Board on February 18, 2021.

the road.
