5.1 Hydrology, Water Supply, and Water Quality
5.1 HYDROLOGY, WATER SUPPLY, AND WATER QUALITY 5.1.1 OVERVIEW AND SUMMARY The proposed Master Plan Update will provide for additional water infrastructure facilities for the City of Solvang (City). The analysis of the proposed Master Plan Update was divided into potential construction and operational impacts to the surface and groundwater hydrology, the water supply, and water quality of the Santa Ynez River. The Master Plan Update proposes that the Santa Ynez River be the primary source of water for the City. The City will be required to obtain and implement a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) as required by the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB). Therefore, the proposed Master Plan Update impacts to water quality during construction would be less than significant (Class III). The proposed Master Plan Update impacts to surface water hydrology, groundwater hydrology, water rights, and water supplies during construction would be less than significant (Class III). Operation of the proposed wells identified in the Master Plan Update would result in minimal reductions in flows along the Santa Ynez River at the Alisal Bridge compared to baseline conditions. Surface water quantity and quality along the Santa Ynez River would be consistent with historic measurements at the Lompoc Narrows under baseline conditions and under the proposed Master Plan Update. Water right users along the Santa Ynez River downstream of Bradbury Dam to the Highway 101 Bridge in Buellton would receive their entire water right entitlement from the riparian groundwater basins and the Cachuma Project. Therefore, potential cumulative water right impacts would be less than significant (Class III). -

5.3 Fisheries Resources
5.3 FISHERIES RESOURCES 5.3.1 OVERVIEW AND SUMMARY This section identifies the fisheries resources within the project areas proposed by the proposed Master Plan Update including new well installation and water treatment plant construction, and assesses the potential impacts of the proposed Master Plan Update on fisheries resources. The new well site locations A and B proposed by the Master Plan Update are largely natural settings along the Santa Ynez River. In addition, the proposed treatment plant is located in a partially developed area and supports disturbed vegetation with no direct connection to the river. The proposed Master Plan Update would minimize construction related impacts to surface waters through implementation of mitigation measures and incorporation of a storm water pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) required by the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) to protect water quality. Construction related impacts to fisheries resources would be less than significant (Class II). No significant impacts to listed special-status fish species, public trust fisheries resources, and associated fisheries habitat would occur because in the proposed Master Plan Update, potential impacts of these resources are avoided through the combination of project design features and mitigation measures. Impacts would be less than significant (Class II). Residual cumulative impacts associated with ongoing operation and maintenance of the proposed new wells would be reduced to less than significant with mitigation and the ongoing coordinated regional effort to implement an integrated approach to water right management that protects the public trust fisheries resources, specifically O. mykiss, along the Santa Ynez River (Class II). 5.3.2 DATA SOURCES AND METHODOLOGY Available literature and data sources were consulted to evaluate the fisheries resources found or potentially found within the project area. -
2006 Flood Control
FLOOD CONTROL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT Prepared for Winter Storms? SUMMARY The Flood Control and Water Conservation District, part of the County Public Works Department, manages the waterways and storage basins in Santa Barbara County. The District deals with emergencies on a regular basis, as winter rains often generate violent flows in the County’s creeks and rivers. The Grand Jury investigated the District’s flood control program to assess its effectiveness in protecting the County from the effects of these flows. The Grand Jury found that the Flood Control and Water Conservation District has a well-planned, proactive, and comprehensive program of annual maintenance and capital improvement projects to prevent flood damage during the winter rains. The Grand Jury also found a well-planned, tested emergency response capability for occasions when heavy flows do occur. The major dams in the County, Bradbury and Twitchell, serve a flood control role as well as forming part of the water conservation system. The dams are under close supervision by Federal and State agencies and have been seismically reinforced. The Grand Jury visited both Bradbury and Twitchell dams and found them under the control of experienced and knowledgeable operators. The Santa Maria levee, which protects the City of Santa Maria and the greater Santa Maria Valley from storm waters in the Santa Maria River, had a major failure in 1998 and is at risk of failing again. Although the District is working proactively to minimize this risk through interim measures, an engineering study indicates that a permanent reinforcement of the levee will cost over $38 million. -
