Authorized features of the Auburn-Folsom South Unit include in the following: • Auburn Dam, Reservoir, and Powerplant on the North Fork of the American River • Folsom South Canal • Sugar Pine Dam, Reservoir, and conveyance • County Line Dam, Reservoir, and conveyance Construction on the Auburn-Folsom South Unit was initiated in 1967. Sugar Pine Dam, Reservoir, and conveyance have been completed. Construction of the first two reaches of the Folsom South Canal, about 27 miles, was completed in 1973 but further construction has been suspended. Construction has not been initiated on the County Line Dam and associated features. Construction of the Auburn Dam portion of the Auburn-Folsom South Unit was deferred following an earthquake in 1975 near Oroville. In Section 209 of the Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act of 2005, the Secretary of the Interior was directed to complete a Special Report to update the costs and associated benefits of the Auburn-Folsom South Unit. PURPOSE AND SCOPE The primary purpose of this Technical Memorandum (TM) is to identify those project features included in the authorized Auburn-Folsom South Unit that would be applicable today if it were decided to continue with implementation of the project.

  • Hydrology and Water Quality
    Chapter 11—Hydrology and Water Quality 11.1 Introduction This chapter describes the existing conditions (environmental and regulatory) relevant to hydrology and water quality, and assesses the potential hydrology and water quality impacts of the 2020 Metropolitan Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (proposed MTP/SCS). Where necessary and feasible, mitigation measures are identified to reduce these impacts. The information presented in this chapter is based on a review of existing and available information and is regional in scope. Data, analysis and findings provided in this chapter were considered and prepared at a programmatic level. Refer to Chapter 8 – Energy and Global Climate Change, for discussion of increased drought, flooding, and sea-level rise, as a result of hydrologic effects of climate change. Refer to Chapter 17 – Utilities and Service Systems, for discussion of available surface and groundwater supplies, and the capacity of water supply infrastructure and wastewater treatment infrastructure. In response to the Notice of Preparation (NOP), SACOG received comments related to water quality from the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board. The commenter expressed that the Draft EIR should consider the following: . Basin Plan Water Quality Objectives . Construction Storm Water General Permit requirements . Phase I and II MS4 Permit requirements . Industrial Storm Water General Permit requirements . Clean Water Act 404 Permit requirements . Clean Water Act 401 Permit requirements . Waste Discharge
