San Francisco Westside Recycled Water Project NOP/Initial Study Notice of Preparation of an Environmental Impact Report Date: July 16, 2014 Case No.: 2008.0091E Project Title: San Francisco Westside Recycled Water Project Location: The proposed project is located in the western portion of San Francisco. Proposed facilities would be constructed at the Oceanside Water Pollution Control Plant and the Central Reservoir in Golden Gate Park with a transmission pipeline between these facilities. Transmission pipelines also would be constructed between the Central Reservoir, Lincoln Park and the Presidio, and adjacent to the Golden Gate Park Panhandle. BPA Nos.: Not Applicable Zoning: Various Block/Lot: Various Lot Size: Various Project Sponsor: San Francisco Public Utilities Commission Scott MacPherson [email protected] Lead Agency: San Francisco Planning Department Staff Contact: Steven H. Smith (415) 558‐6373 [email protected] PROJECT DESCRIPTION The primary purpose of the San Francisco Westside Recycled Water Project (the project) is to reduce the City and County of San Francisco’s (CCSF’s) reliance on potable water for nonpotable uses such as irrigation through the production and distribution of highly treated recycled water. The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) initially proposed the project as described in a Notice of Preparation (NOP) published by the San Francisco Planning Department in June 2008; SFPUC subsequently revised the project and the San Francisco Planning Department published a second NOP in September 2010. The SFPUC has again modified the proposed project, as described ins thi revised NOP; key features of the project as revised are summarized below: The proposed recycled water treatment plant would be located at the SFPUC’s Oceanside Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP), and within a portion of the adjacent California Army National Guard site. Recycled water produced at this facility would be used in Golden Gate Park (including the Panhandle portion of the park and fill for Golden Gate Park Lakes), Lincoln Park Golf Course, and various areas of the Presidio, primarily for landscape irrigation. Storage and distribution facilities at the former Richmond/Sunset WPCP in Golden Gate Park and a storage facility within the Presidio are no longer proposed. Instead, the existing Central Reservoir and pump station in Golden Gate Park would be expanded to include additional storage and pumping capacity. A transmission pipeline would be constructed between the proposed recycled water treatment plant at the Oceanside WPCP and the existing Central Reservoir in Golden Gate Park, primarily along 36th Avenue; transmission pipelines also would be constructed between the Central Reservoir and Lincoln Park and the Presidio, as well as adjacent to the Golden Gate Park Panhandle. Pipelines would not be constructed along the Great Highway between the Oceanside WPCP and the former Richmond-Sunset WPCP site. The project is a component of the SFPUC's Water System Improvement Program (WSIP), which includes facility improvement projects designed to: (1) maintain high-quality water; (2) reduce vulnerability to earthquakes; (3) increase delivery reliability and improve the ability to maintain the system; (4) meet customer purchase requests in nondrought and drought periods; (5) enhance sustainability in all system activities; and (6) achieve a cost-effective, fully operational system. Implementation of this project would contribute to meeting the overall WSIP goals and objectives. 1 FINDING This project may have a significant effect on the environment and an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is required. This determination is based upon the criteria of the State California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Sections 15063 (Initial Study), 15064 (Determining Significant Effect), and 15065 (Mandatory Findings of Significance), and for the reasons documented in the Environmental Evaluation (Initial Study) for the project, which is attached. PUBLIC SCOPING PROCESS Pursuant to the State of California Public Resources Code Section 21083.9 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15206, a public scoping meeting will be held to receive oral comments concerning the scope of the EIR. The meeting will be held on July 29, 2014 at 6:30 PM at the Ortega Branch Library,Z 3223 Ortega Street, San Francisco, California, 94122. Meeting location access and restrooms are compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. To request a language interpreter or to accommodate persons with disabilities at the scoping meeting, please contact the staff contact listed above at least 72 hours in advance of the meeting.

    Providing opportunities for children to be healthy, families to thrive and communities to be strong, since 1977. BOARD OF DIRECTORS LEADERSHIP TEAM Debbie Chang, President Monica Walters, Chief Executive Officer Neill Tseng, Vice President Alyson Lee-Suzuki, Chief Programs Director Mark Tao, Treasurer John Uselman, Chief Financial Officer David Ziegler, Secretary Mike Neumann, Chief Operations Officer Patti Lew Cindy Madsen, Director of Human Resources Henry Loh Denise McCarthy Hui Ling Shi OUR MISSION Cindy Tran Providing opportunities for children to be healthy, Irene Wong families to thrive, and communities to be strong. Helping San Francisco succeed San Francisco is a city of tremendous economic disparity. While home to some of the wealthiest neighborhoods in the country, it is also home to some of the most economically challenged. The majority of low income families live in select areas of San Francisco, largely driven by the high cost of living. The demand for child care is high particularly in these neighborhoods, as many of these families are working immigrants striving for self-sufficiency. In the areas that we serve, it is estimated that up to 51% of the families eligible for subsidized child care are living below the poverty level. In early 2014, Wu Yee Children’s Services was awarded a new Head Start and Early Head Start grant allowing us to expand our area of service in San Francisco and enroll an additional 210 Early Head Start and 275 Head Start children (bringing our total to 595) in our Home Based, Family Child Care and Center Based programs. With that, we brought six additional Child Development Centers into the Wu Yee family.

This thesis examines the development from the novel perspective of medievalism—the study of the Middle Ages as an imaginative construct in western society after their actual demise. It offers a selection of the best known neo-Gothic artifacts in the city, describes the technological innovations which distinguish them from the medievalist architecture of the nineteenth century, and shows the motivation for their creation. The significance of the California Arts and Crafts movement is explained, and profiles are offered of the two leading medievalist architects of the period, Bernard Maybeck and Julia Morgan.

  • 1969 Budget Analysis: Capital Outlay
    Capital Outlay CAP IT At. OUTLAY Summary 1968 Program The Budget Act of 1968 as signed by the Governor contained ap­ proximately $146,046,000 for capital outlay. Of this, $71,620,000 was from the General ]'und and the balance from (1) various special funds ($50,775,000), excluding water and highways, and (2) bond funds in the areas of recreation, parks and junior college state construction as­ sistance ($23,651,000). There are a number of observations pertinent to the amount and nature of this 1968 outlay total. First, it was the smallest capital outlay appropriation since the fiscal year 1962-63. Second, the amount of bond funds was relatively minor for the first time in ten years. Third, it contained an item of some $3,340,000 for purposes which had been treated as local assistance in previous budget acts. Fourth, overall it represented essentially a "pay-as-you-go" construction program. In addition to the $71,620,000 directly appropriated from the Gen­ eral Fund, it should be noted that of the special funds amount, $37,- 730,000 was from the Capital Outlay Fund for Public Higher Educa­ tion. This fund is fed by tidelands oil reveneus which otherwise would have accrued to the General Fund. Therefore, as a practical matter, approximately 75 percent of the total 1968 capital outlay appropria­ tion had its origin in the General Fund. The limited bond funds that were allocated by the 1968 Budget Act were largely directed to higher education (junior colleges). All of the balance of $3 million remaining in the Higher Education Bond Act Fund was allocated to augment projects previously funded from it for the purpose of financing increased costs attributable to a sharp rise in the construction cost index.
