The 2012 adoption of MAP-21, a federal funding source, came with performance- and outcome-based program, known as “Performance-Based Planning and Programming (PBPP).” Its objective was to invest in projects that will make progress toward the achievement of the national goals for transportation. The most recent federal transportation bill, Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act of 2016 (FAST Act), carries forward the same performance management framework. This performance report includes Federal performance measures that are thematically split into three groupings under the rubic of “Performance Management” (PM). PM 1: Roadway Safety PM 2: Transportation Asset Management PM 3: System Reliability, Freight, Congestion, and Air Quality Introduced to our committees and board in January 2018, these performance measures will be reported annually as required by MAP-21. Caltrans has not released any additional instructions or information outside of the state targets; thus, staff has applied our “best practices” methodology (based off Caltrans’ methodology) to report on MAP-21 performance measures for San Joaquin County. This performance report is the first of many annual reports. As Caltrans’ guidelines become more clear, “best practices” methodology may be updated and additional information may be included in future performance reports. Below summarizes the findings of the 2019 Performance Report. Note: Staff was unavailable to access relevant previous data for PM2 at this time. MOST CURRENT PERFORMANCE MEASURES PREVIOUS YEAR YEAR PM 1 – Safety P9 MOST CURRENT PERFORMANCE MEASURES PREVIOUS YEAR YEAR Number of fatalities 118 116 Rate of fatalities per 100 million vehicle miles traveled 1.75 1.71 Number of serious injuries 292 353 Rate of serious injuries per 100 million vehicle miles 4.33 5.2 traveled Number of non-motorized fatalities and serious injuries 75 94 Non-motorized fatalities 49 64 Non-motorized serious injuries 26 30 PM 2 – Transportation Asset Management Percentage of Interstate pavements in Good condition 33% Percentage of Interstate pavements

  • 4.8 Hydrology and Water Quality
    4.8 HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY 4.8.1 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING 4.8.1.1 Regional Characteristics The Altamont Motorsports Park (AMP) project is located in the eastern portion of Alameda County. The project region experiences a Mediterranean Climate, with almost all precipitation falling between the months of October and April. The temperature at the nearest monitoring station, Tracy Pumping Plant ranges from an average of 45 degrees during winter months and 72 degrees during summer months. The average annual precipitation is approximately 15 inches per year (Western Regional Climate Center 2007). 4.8.1.2 Surface Hydrology Regionally, the project area is located within the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento‐San Joaquin River Delta System. The Sacramento‐San Joaquin Delta consists of the largest estuary on the west coast and drains more than 40 percent of the water in California. The Delta system, consisting of over 1,100 square miles, lies at the confluence of the southward‐flowing Sacramento and northward‐flowing San Joaquin rivers. The San Joaquin Valley Basin is comprised of the trough bounded by the Sierra Nevada on the east and the Coastal Ranges on the west. According to the California Environmental Protection Agency (Cal/EPA), the project site is generally located in the San Joaquin River Basin, within the Carbona watershed and immediately south and east of the Mountain House Creek watershed. The creek flows in a general northeasterly direction towards drain pipes that pass over the California Aqueduct and the Delta Mendota Canal and eventually discharges into Old River (San Joaquin County 2003). Under existing conditions, runoff from the project site is generally discharged towards a seasonal detention pond (approximately 200 feet by 75 feet in size) located on the northern portion of the project site.

  • To Wood's 1883 History of Alameda County
    Donated to The LDS Family History Library in appreciation for its services to genealogists Index to Woodfs History of Alameda County History published in 1883 Index compiled as a WPA project in 1936 Index reprinted by The Livermore-Amador Genealogical Society March 1999 FAMILY HISTORY LIBRARY J fi \t$ 35 NORTH WEST TEMPLE af'\ SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH 84150 ' \HkJ I V" uV Preface Myron Winslow Wood's "History of Alameda County, California," published in 1883 and reprinted in 1969, is widely held by libraries in California and elsewhere. It contains an index, but only to the names of the prominent men whose biographies appear in the book. A full name and subject index was compiled by the Works Progress Administration in 1936. In contrast to the book itself, this index seems to be rare. A search for it in the online catalogs of the LDS Family History Library, the Library of Congress, the University of California, Sutro Library, the California State Library, the Oakland Public Library and the San Francisco City Library failed to find a copy. The Alameda County Library has a copy of the index (VCa 974 Wood's...) housed in a locked case in the Maurice Marks Center for Local and California History in the Fremont Main Library. It is a typewritten carbon copy manuscript of 223 pages in hard binding. It was the Alameda County Library copy of the index that was used to make the reprint presented here. Since Wood's original book is in widespread use, yet is nominally unindexed, the Livermore-Amador Genealogical Society (L-AGS) decided it would be a public service to reprint the public domain WPA index and make it available at cost to libraries and individuals.

The views and conclusions contained in this document are those of the authors and should not be interpreted as representing the opinions or policies of the U.S. Geological Survey. Mention of trade names or commercial products does not constitute their endorsement by the U.S. Geological Survey. 1 ABSTRACT The eastern margin of the Diablo Range near the Sacramento and San Joaquin Delta in northern California is characterized by west-dipping reverse or thrust faults associated with the Great Valley thrust system (GVT). Though subsidiary to the San Andreas fault system, seismic hazards from GVT faults are not well constrained, and even moderate shaking could profoundly affect the vulnerable infrastructure and ecology of the Delta region. At the latitude of Tracy and Livermore, the GVT is represented by the Black Butte and San Joaquin faults, a system of overlapping faults that extends for more than 85 km along the Diablo Range mountain front.

  • Appendix a Description of the Proposed Project and Alternatives
    Appendix A Description of the Proposed Project and Alternatives San Luis Transmission Project 2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT AND ALTERNATIVES Chapter 2 Description of the Proposed Project and Alternatives This chapter describes the Proposed Project and alternatives; proposed construction, operation and maintenance, and decommissioning activities; and the Environmental Protection Measures (EPMs) and standard construction, operation, and maintenance practices that would be implemented as part of the Project. It also identifies the Environmentally Preferred Alternative. Pending completion of the EIS/EIR, the exact locations and quantities of project components (e.g., transmission line right-of-way, transmission line support structures, new substations or expanded substation areas, access roads, staging areas, pulling sites) are unknown and, in some cases, quantities of project components are estimated. This EIS/EIR uses the term Project area to collectively describe the area within which Project components could be located. A corridor is a linear area within which the easements (also known as rights-of-way) would be located; proposed corridors are part of the Project area. 2.1 Proposed Project Western proposes to construct, own, operate, and maintain about 95 miles of new transmission lines within easements ranging from 125 to 250 feet wide through Alameda, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, and Merced Counties along the foothills of the Diablo Range in the western San Joaquin Valley. Western also would upgrade or expand its existing substations, make the necessary arrangements to upgrade or expand existing PG&E substations, or construct new substations to accommodate the interconnections of these new transmission lines. An overview of the Proposed Project is illustrated in Figure 2-1.

  • 4.6 Geology and Soils
    4.6 GEOLOGY, SOILS, AND MINERAL RESOURCES This section addresses the existing geological and soil resources within the region and evaluates the significance of the changes in geological resources that would result from development of the proposed 2014 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). In addition, as appropriate and feasible, mitigation measures are identified to reduce potentially significant adverse impacts. 4.6.1 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING Regional Geology Located at the northern end of the San Joaquin Valley, San Joaquin County lies in the region of the confluence of the San Joaquin and Sacramento Rivers. The San Joaquin Valley is bordered by the Coast Ranges on the west and the foothills of the Sierra Nevada to the east. The San Joaquin Valley basin has been filled over time with up to a 6-mile-thick sequence of interbedded clay, silt, sand, and gravel deposits. The sediments range in age from more than 144 million years old (Jurassic Period) to less than 10,000 years (Holocene). The most recent sediments consist of coarse-grained (sand and gravel) deposits along river courses and fine-grained (clay and silt) deposits located in low- lying areas or flood basins and are referred to as alluvial deposits. These deposits are loose and not well- consolidated soils. Older alluvial deposits underlie the edges of the Valley. The older alluvial deposits are exposed in the foothill regions in the eastern portion of the County. The alluvial deposits, which slope gradually toward the center of the Valley, contain most of the groundwater supplies in San Joaquin County. The foothills of the Diablo Range in the southwestern part of the County are underlain by alluvial deposits and older marine sediments deposited during the Tertiary Period when an inland sea occupied the Central Valley.

    Up Your Creek! The electronic newsletter of the Alameda Creek Alliance Summer Picnic at Chouinard Winery July 7 Join the Alameda Creek Alliance for a casual afternoon picnic and wine tasting at Chouinard Winery in Palomares Canyon, on Saturday, July 7, from noon to 4 pm. Come hang out at the winery with the Alameda Creek Alliance Board of Directors, learn about the latest updates on steelhead restoration, and enjoy live music in the vineyards. We'll supply the appetizers, and wine is for sale by the glass and bottle from the winery. The event is free. Please RSVP to [email protected]. Save Tesla Park Just east of the Alameda Creek watershed is the valley of Tesla, a land of scenic ridge tops and dramatic canyons feeding into Corral Hollow Creek, a west side tributary of the San Joaquin River. Corral Hollow is a biologically unique and culturally significant landscape with mountain savannah grassland and blue oak woodland habitats that support a wide range of sensitive wildlife species, is the northernmost limit of many rare native plants and is a critical habitat corridor for wildlife through the Diablo Range. You own this land – it was purchased by the California State Parks. But the Off-Highway Motor Vehicle Division of California State Parks wants a major expansion of Carnegie State Vehicular Recreation Area and destructive off-road vehicle use into 3,478 acres of the Corral Hollow Creek watershed. Take action to protect your public state park land and important endangered species habitat in eastern Alameda County from destruction by off-road vehicles.
