The water supply assessment was adopted by the ACWD Board of Directors on June 11, 2020 (resolution enclosed). The water supply assessment was prepared pursuant to California Water Code Section §10910 which requires that a water supply assessment be provided to cities or counties for a project that is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and which surpasses a threshold for the number of housing units and/or square feet of commercial/industrial buildings. The water supply assessment documents sources of water supply, quantifies water demands, evaluates drought impacts, and provides a comparison of water supply and demand that is the basis for an assessment of water supply sufficiency. The water supply assessment also includes provisions for Water Conservation to be implemented by the Project applicant. As noted in the assessment, these provisions will be a condition of water service to the Project.

  • 1 EVIDENCE THAT ACWD HAS OPERATED the NILES CONE SUB-BASIN 2-09.01 WITHIN ITS SUSTAINABLE YIELD the Alameda County Water Distri
    DRAFT EVIDENCE THAT ACWD HAS OPERATED THE NILES CONE SUB-BASIN 2-09.01 WITHIN ITS SUSTAINABLE YIELD The Alameda County Water District (ACWD) manages the Niles Cone Sub-basin 2-09.01 (Niles Cone) in the Cities of Fremont, Newark, Union City, and southern Hayward (map in Figure 1A and east-west cross-section in Figure 1B). Groundwater comprises approximately 40% of the supply to ACWD’s distribution system. ACWD operates production wells and artificial recharge facilities (also commonly referred to as managed-aquifer-recharge) in the Niles Cone. By integrating recharge and pumping operations, and implementing other vital programs, ACWD has operated the Niles Cone within its sustainable yield over the last five decades, including the most recent 10-year period from 2005 to 2015. To support this analysis, the following is provided: A description of the Niles Cone Groundwater Basin and its sustainable yield. A summary of ACWD programs that ensure that total pumping does not exceed the sustainable yield. Data on basin conditions over the last 10 years. Introduction – Sources of Information ACWD would like to emphasize that this document is based on existing and publically available information, including the Survey Report on Groundwater Conditions (published annually), the Groundwater Monitoring Report (published annually), Bulletins published by the California Department of Water Resources, reports of hydrogeologic investigations conducted by ACWD and financially supported by DWR, ACWD integrated planning and operations reports, and other studies. The Niles Cone Groundwater Basin and its Sustainable Yield The long-term average sustainable pumping yield of the Niles Cone, like any other groundwater basin, is determined by the amount of recharge to productive aquifers less natural (non-pumping) sinks from the aquifers.

  • Up Your Creek! the Electronic Newsletter of the Alameda Creek Alliance
    Up Your Creek! The electronic newsletter of the Alameda Creek Alliance Scaled Back Caltrans Niles Canyon Project Draft EIR Released Caltrans has released a draft Environmental Impact Report for the Niles Canyon Safety Improvements Project. The project proposes localized safety improvements on Highway 84 through Niles Canyon and in Sunol. The draft EIR/EA is available here. This project is dramatically scaled back from the original road widening that Caltrans began cutting trees for in 2011, and includes some common sense measures with no environmental impacts, such as installing additional road signs, upgrading guard rails, and installing active warning system, speed feedback signs, and dynamic active warning systems to reduce driver speeds. However, there are still some objectionable elements of the proposed project, particularly the “improvement” and re-engineering of the low speed curve midway through the canyon (which is not particularly an accident hot spot), which would allow increased driver speeds. Caltrans has failed to consider alternative design speeds for the low speed curve, to reduce the amount of rock cuts and retaining walls that will be needed. Caltrans also proposed to install two large mesh drapery screens at areas with potential rockfall – these screens would be a visual blight in the canyon. The project proposes la little more than a mile of shoulder widening - at Sims Park/Quarry Road, the west side of Silver Springs, and Paloma Way - as well as removal of about 40 trees that are next to the roadway. The project also proposes installing two traffic signals at the Pleasanton/Sunol-SR-84 intersection to reduce rush hour backups in Sunol.

  • State of California Department of Water Resources Sustainable Groundwater Management Program Alternative Assessment Staff Report
    State of California Department of Water Resources Sustainable Groundwater Management Program Alternative Assessment Staff Report Groundwater Basin Name: Santa Clara Valley– Niles Cone (Basin No. 3-002.01) Submitting Agency: Alameda County Water District Recommendation: Approve Date Issued: July 17, 2019 I. Summary Alameda County Water District (District) submitted an alternative (Niles Cone Subbasin Alternative or Alternative) to the Department of Water Resources (Department) for evaluation and assessment as provided by the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA).1 The District submitted an existing plan2 and relies on numerous reports and supporting documents. After reviewing the Alternative and considering public comments, Department staff find the Niles Cone Subbasin Alternative satisfies the objectives of SGMA and recommends approval of the Alternative. Alameda County Water District was formed under the County Water District Act in 1914 to protect the groundwater Subbasin, conserve water in the Alameda Creek watershed, and develop supplemental water supplies. Additional authority for groundwater management in the Niles Cone Subbasin, as explained in the Alternative, was provided to the District under the Replenishment Assessment Act of 1961. The Replenishment Assessment Act was passed in response to deteriorating groundwater conditions from seawater intrusion in the Newark Aquifer caused by overdraft in the Subbasin below the Hayward Fault. Subsequent efforts to restore groundwater elevations above sea level included importing surface water from the State Water Project and San Francisco Public Utilities Commission Hetch-Hetchy Project to reduce demand on groundwater and recharge the aquifers. These efforts appear successful, and on-going management has been focused on improving managed aquifer recharge operations, banking groundwater outside the Subbasin, and mitigating legacy water quality issues related to sea water intrusion in the deeper aquifers.

  • 4.15 Utilities and Service Systems This Section Describes the Environmental and Regulatory Setting for Utilities and Service Systems
    Environmental Impact Analysis City of Union City Utilities and Service Systems 4.15 Utilities and Service Systems This section describes the environmental and regulatory setting for utilities and service systems. It also describes impacts on utilities and service systems that would result from implementation of the project and mitigation for significant impacts where feasible and appropriate. This section is based, in part, on the Water Supply Assessment (WSA) prepared for the project by the Alameda County Water District (ACWD) (Appendix 4.15-1).1 No comments regarding utilities and service systems were received in response to the Notice of Preparation (NOP). 4.15.1 Existing Conditions 4.15.1.1 Environmental Setting Water Alameda County Water District Facilities and Sources The Alameda County Water District (ACWD) ACWD manages 900 miles of water pipelines and manages 13 reservoirs and tanks.2 The average daily production in Fiscal Year 2017-2018 was approximately 37 million gallons per day (mgd) and the maximum daily production was approximately 55.66 mgd. Water is provided to ACWD from three sources: local supplies, the State Water Project (SWP), and San Francisco’s Regional Water System. Local supplies include fresh groundwater from the Niles Cone Subbasin, desalinated brackish groundwater from portions of the groundwater basin previously impacted by saltwater intrusion, and surface water from the Del Valle Reservoir. Approximately 40 percent of ACWD’s current supply comes from the SWP, 20 percent from the San Francisco Regional Water System, and 40 percent from local supplies.3 The SWP and San Francisco Regional Water Supplies are imported into the ACWD service area through the South Bay Aqueduct and Hetch Hetchy Aqueduct, respectively.
