  • Conceptual Design Documentation
    Appendix A: Conceptual Design Documentation APPENDIX A Conceptual Design Documentation June 2019 A-1 APPENDIX A: CONCEPTUAL DESIGN DOCUMENTATION The environmental analyses in the NEPA and CEQA documents for the proposed improvements at Oceano County Airport (the Airport) are based on conceptual designs prepared to provide a realistic basis for assessing their environmental consequences. 1. Widen runway from 50 to 60 feet 2. Widen Taxiways A, A-1, A-2, A-3, and A-4 from 20 to 25 feet 3. Relocate segmented circle and wind cone 4. Installation of taxiway edge lighting 5. Installation of hold position signage 6. Installation of a new electrical vault and connections 7. Installation of a pollution control facility (wash rack) CIVIL ENGINEERING CALCULATIONS The purpose of this conceptual design effort is to identify the amount of impervious surface, grading (cut and fill) and drainage implications of the projects identified above. The conceptual design calculations detailed in the following figures indicate that Projects 1 and 2, widening the runways and taxiways would increase the total amount of impervious surface on the Airport by 32,016 square feet, or 0.73 acres; a 6.6 percent increase in the Airport’s impervious surface area. Drainage patterns would remain the same as both the runway and taxiways would continue to sheet flow from their centerlines to the edge of pavement and then into open, grassed areas. The existing drainage system is able to accommodate the modest increase in stormwater runoff that would occur, particularly as soil conditions on the Airport are conducive to infiltration. Figure A-1 shows the locations of the seven projects incorporated in the Proposed Action.

  • Full Drought Devils List
    The Drought Devils collection features plants well adapted to California gardens and are classified as needing low to moderate amounts of supplemental summer water. This group primarily includes natives from California, the Mediterranean, and Australia - that thrive in the Bay Area’s summer-dry climate. Drought Devils are drought-tolerant once established assuming proper soil structure and standard seasonal precipitation. These plants will need regular water for about two dry seasons in order to develop strong stems and extensive root systems. By the third dry season, these plants should be able to thrive with low amounts of supplemental water, expect for times of extreme hot weather or prolonged drought. For more information please visit our website at: www.devilmountainnursery.com/droughtdevils Please note that due to seasonal availability not all plants listed are available at all times. To inquire about availability, please contact our sales department at (925) 829-6006 or [email protected] *By no means is this list an entire summary of all drought-tolerant plants that do well in California gardens. This list is limited to plants that Devil Mountain stocks or can source from our vendors. (If you have had experience with a plant and think it should be included on this list, please contact us and we would be happy to hear your suggestions. Adversely, if you have had experience with a plant that you think should not be included on this list, feel free contact us as well.) These plants are organized by type, so that choosing the right plants for the right space and function will be made easier.
