REGULAR AGENDA (4) Discussion and Council Action: Peter Drekmeier, Policy Director for Tuolumne River Trust, with Support of Sustainable Groundwater Management [7:34 p.m.] (a) Adoption of a resolution of the Town Council of the Town of Portola Valley in support of Sustainable Groundwater Management in the San Francisquito Creek Area to ensure its availability during droughts and emergency situations (Resolution No. 2633-2014) Mayor Wengert welcomed Mr. Drekmeier, who said 85% of the Town’s water supply, delivered by the California Water Service Company (CalWater) comes from the Tuolumne River. The remaining 15% comes from local watersheds, Calaveras and Crystal Springs reservoirs as well as Milagra Creek. With population and jobs growth, interest in groundwater has increased, he said, noting that the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) not only limits the amount of water available, but the 1 Page 6 water is getting more expensive. Climate change and environmental regulations also come into play. For example, he said that the California Department of Fish and Wildlife now requires Calaveras and Crystal Springs Reservoirs now to release extra water into creeks for steelhead, further reducing the supply available for distribution. Referring to a PowerPoint slide, he pointed out sources of groundwater in the Bay Area, explaining that the Santa Clara Basin, which extends into the East Bay and up to San Mateo. San Francisquito Creek is a major source of recharge in this area, he added; the water passes down through Stanford, Menlo Park and East Palo Alto. There’s an alluvial fan there. The creekwater and that from a sub-subbasin, the San Francisquito Cone, recharge, as does water from the aquatard, a surface layer above the aquifer, which reaches about 300 feet in depth. The Santa Clara Valley Water District taps into it as well when there’s not enough water in the system. In fact, Mr. Drekmeier said Santa Clara County has 300,000 acre-feet of storage in groundwater – almost as much as the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir, with 360,000 acre-feet. Mr. Drekmeier said his interest in surface water began while he was serving on the Palo Alto City Council when a significant number of homes were being built with basements and they required pumping out groundwater when they hit it. In one instance, he recalled a property from which over 8 million gallons of groundwater were pumped out a period of several months. Noting that groundwater is a less-expensive alternative to reservoir water, Mr. Drekmeier discussed Palo Alto’s $4.7 billion Water System Improvement Program to retrofit the system to make it seismically sound, which has resulted in rates doubling since 2008 and likely to increase another 50%. A SFPUC study exploring the effects of climate change on the water supply in the future described one scenario of 30% less water available by the year 2100. Don Pedro Reservoir, downstream of Hetch Hetchy and much larger, provides a significant portion of the Central Valley’s irrigation water. Paying for nearly half of the San Pedro Dam gives the SFPUC a water bank there to supplement what’s available in Hetch Hetchy. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FER), however, requires higher flows to replenish and retain the salmon population. At the same time, the state water board is working on the Bay-Delta Water Quality Control Plan. Designed to protect water supply while improving the dismal conditions in the Bay Delta, it would take more water – anywhere from 20% to 60% of unimpaired flow – from the Sacramento and San Joachin Rivers. Tributaries feeding the San Joachin include the Stanislaus, Tuolumne and Merced Rivers. Mr. Drekmeier said the role San Francisco will play in providing that water isn’t yet clear, but it likely will diminish the amount available to Bay Area residents. Mr. Drekmeier said another challenge is the fact that the Hetch Hetchy pipeline crosses several major earthquake faults, including the Hayward Fault, where a significant seismic event hits about every 100 years and the US Geological Survey has estimated a 63% chance of one occurring by 2036. Although pumps in Palo Alto could supply emergency water, seismic upgrades are needed to minimize the risk of an earthquake cutting off the water supply from the Sierra Nevada that we rely on. At this time, the Palo Alto Mutual Park Water Company, the O’Connor Tract Cooperative Water Company and some irrigation wells in Atherton provide 500,000 gallons of groundwater daily, Mr.

  • Evaluating Small Dam Removal Planning in the San Francisco Bay Area
    EVALUATING SMALL DAM REMOVAL PLANNING IN THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA A thesis submitted to the faculty of San Francisco State University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree Master of Arts In Geography: Resource Management and Environmental Planning by Andrea Sarisky Sproul San Francisco, California August 2017 Copyright by Andrea Sarisky Sproul 2017 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read Evaluating Small Dam Removal Planning in the San Francisco Bay Area by Andrea Sarisky Sproul, and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Master of Arts in Geography: Resource Management and Environmental Planning at San Francisco State University. Nancy Lee Wilkinson, Ph.D. Professor of Geography Jerry D. Davis, Ph.D. Professor of Geography EVALUATING SMALL DAM REMOVAL PLANNING IN THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA Andrea Sarisky Sproul San Francisco, California 2017 Dam removal is now commonly being considered as a river restoration tactic as millions of small dams in the United States outlive their intended purposes and become liabilities or cause environmental degradation. This study evaluates two cases of small dam removal in the San Francisco Bay Area, gauging what aspects of the decision-making and planning process facilitated successful removal. Through the study of the setting, actors, steps of progression, and treatment of risks for each dam removal project, the cases are evaluated against one another via pattern matching and comparing factors of analysis. Planning at the watershed scale, the presence of protected salmonids, available funding, and strong leadership that incorporates multiple stakeholder viewpoints and embraces adaptive management were all found to be important factors leading to successful outcomes.
