Draft ECCCHC Staff Report Regarding Agenda Item 5 Attachment A Errata CEQA Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration PG&E Transmission Pipeline L-114 Replacement Project This errata document is prepared for the PG&E Transmission Pipeline L-114 Replacement Project Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND). It lists sections of the IS/MND that are the subject of minor revisions or modifications since the release of the document for public review. None of the modifications noted below result in a “substantial revision” requiring recirculation. Rather, these errata provide clarifying information, as specified in §15073.5 of the CEQA Guidelines, to an adequate IS/MND. Further, these minor revisions or modifications to the IS/MND do not substantially change the setting, impacts, or mitigation measures identified. In addition to the listed revisions, please note for clarification that IS/MND references to the “project proponent” or “project applicant” both refer to PG&E and that this errata document does not propose revisions with respect to these references. Chapter 1, Project Description page 1-2. The following text is added to the second paragraphs, under heading Project Location. The project site includes three work areas: the north work area, central work area, and south work area. The central work area is located adjacent to Marsh Creek State Park and the new pipeline would be drilled underneath Marsh Creek State Park. Access to the central work area is provided by an existing paved access road off Marsh Creek Road on the Contra Costa Flood Control District (CCFCD) property. Obtaining a CCFCD permit is required prior to using CCFCD property for access and/or project staging. Chapter 2, Environmental Checklist page 2-1. The following text is added to bullet 10, Other Public Agencies Whose Approval is Required. 10. Other Public Agencies Whose Approval is Required: California State Parks, California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), Contra Costa Flood Control District, Contra Costa Community College District, Contra Costa County, City of Brentwood. Section I. Aesthetics, page 2-7. The second sentence of Mitigation Measure AES-1 is revised to clarify the name of the Parks & Recreation Department. The project proponent shall work with the Conservancy and the Parks & Recreation Department District, to ensure that revegetation activities adequately restore disturbed areas to pre- construction conditions. Section III. Air Quality, page 2-12. The first sentence under Mitigation Measure AQ-1 is revised to clarify the construction contractor as PG&E. The Conservancy will require all construction contractors PG&E to implement the basic construction mitigation measures recommended by BAAQMD. 201 Mission Street, Suite 1500, San Francisco, CA 94105 USA +1.415.677.7100 +1.415.677.7177 fax icf.com Agenda Item 5 Attachment A December 2020 Page 2 of 3 Section IV.

PG&E will prepare an HDD Execution Plan to be implemented by construction contractors PG&E (See Appendix C of this IS/MND). Section IV. Biological Resources, page 2-31. The last sentence of the first paragraph, continuing under Mitigation Measure BIO-6 is revised to clarify the construction contractor as PG&E. In addition to the requirements in the HDD Execution Plan, the construction contractors PG&E will also be required to implement the following measures: Section V. Cultural Resources, page 2-35. The last sentence of the first paragraph under Discussion point a is revised as follows: It was placed on the National Register in 1971 and is currently part of the Marsh Creek State Park (SHP) and managed by John Marsh Historic Trust California State Parks (National Park Service 2019; California Department of Parks and Recreation 2020). Updated to include the most recent management. Section V. Cultural Resources, page 2-35.

Operation of the project would require a permanent PG&E easement for the pipeline within Marsh Creek State Park. Landscaping, as well as any future development within the areas of the easement would be governed according to the easement deed, which is included as Appendix F of the IS/MND. Because conformance with the easement restrictions would not preclude implementation of plans, policies, or regulations adopted for the purpose of mitigation an environmental effect, there would be no impact related to conflicts with plans, policies, or regulations. Section IX. Hazards and Hazardous Materials, page 2-50. The second sentence of the second paragraph following the bullet points is revised to clarify the construction contractor as PG&E. The construction contractors PG&E would be responsible for obtaining a Spill Prevention Countermeasure Control Plan, per PG&E protocol, prior to the commencement of construction. Section X.

  • Funding the East Contra Costa Fire Protection District
    Contact: Jim Mellander Foreperson 925-608-2621 Contra Costa County Grand Jury Report 17XX Funding the East Contra Costa Fire Protection District TO: Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors, East Contra Costa Fire Protection District, Brentwood City Council, Oakley City Council SUMMARY The East Contra Costa Fire Protection District (ECCFPD) was formed in 2002 and serves the communities of Brentwood, Oakley, Knightsen, Byron, Discovery Bay, Bethel Island, and the Marsh Creek area. In 2009, ECCFPD closed five of its eight fire stations because it lacked the funds to operate them. ECCFPD receives the lowest allocation of ad valorem property taxes of any fire district in Contra Costa County, 7% of the 1% ad valorem property tax levied on properties. ECCFPD and the cities of Brentwood and Oakley have placed initiatives on the ballot to fund the reopening of closed stations. However, property owners have rejected parcel tax assessments, and the residents of Brentwood and Oakley similarly have rejected utility taxes. Three fire stations are insufficient to provide adequate urban and suburban fire protection coverage in a fire district with a population of 110,000 and an area of 249 square miles. Response times have increased since the closure of stations. ECCFPD should continue its efforts to reopen fire stations by seeking the necessary funding to do so through tax ballot measures and reallocation opportunities. Additionally, the City of Brentwood, the City of Oakley, and the County should collect impact fees for ECCFPD capital improvements,

Center for Ecosystem Management and Restoration CONTRA COSTA COUNTY Marsh Creek Watershed Marsh Creek flows approximately 30 miles from the eastern slopes of Mt. Diablo to Suisun Bay in the northern San Francisco Estuary. Its watershed consists of about 100 square miles. The headwaters of Marsh Creek consist of numerous small, intermittent and perennial tributaries within the Black Hills. The creek drains to the northwest before abruptly turning east near Marsh Creek Springs. From Marsh Creek Springs, Marsh Creek flows in an easterly direction entering Marsh Creek Reservoir, constructed in the 1960s. The creek is largely channelized in the lower watershed, and includes a drop structure near the city of Brentwood that appears to be a complete passage barrier. Marsh Creek enters the Big Break area of the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta northeast of the city of Oakley. Marsh Creek No salmonids were observed by DFG during an April 1942 visual survey of Marsh Creek at two locations: 0.25 miles upstream from the mouth in a tidal reach, and in close proximity to a bridge four miles east of Byron (Curtis 1942).

The creek restoration Project is designed to provide multiple benefits, including improved water quality in Marsh Creek and the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, habitat for a diversity of avian, fish, reptile and mammalian species, and recreational opportunities for the growing community of the City of Brentwood. These improvements will be realized by widening 4,000 linear feet of the Marsh Creek flood control channel, creating a floodplain along the low flow channel, and removing non- native and restoring native riparian and upland vegetation in a 13.5-acre Project Site.
