(it /O"L- Dale Ravmond A, Casey, Deputv Director/ City En2ineer Prinled Name of Applicant - 2- ~-~ 2002-89 VISION CREEK (Phase n: CONCEPT REPORT I) The City of San Bernardino! Development Services in coordination with the proposed Caltrans 1- 215 freeway widening project, and the Municipal Water District is proposing a rather unique cost effective water reclamation! water diversion project that qualifies under the State Water Resources Control Board's (SWRCB) Nonpoint Source Pollution Control Program. The Vision Creek Project proposes to divert 1-215 Freeway storm water and landscaping irrigation run off along the east side of the freeway between Olive Street and Base Line. The TIm off will flow through a series of drainage clarifiers located within the freeway right-of-way, into existing lateral drainage pipes, terminating into the project's proposed concrete lined with rock and gravel riprap trapezoidal drainage channel (urban stream). The urban stream concept will simulate actual creek bed flow on a constant basis, fed by a water source that is provided from the project's planned retention pond in the vicinity of Base Line at '"G" Streets. The stream is initially designed to flow adjacent to the freeway along the west side of"H" Street, between Base Line and Olive Streets where it will terminate into an existing "H" Street storm drain channel. Please review the attached project vicinity concept map. The urban stream shall be multi-faceted in function, providing both year round water drainage capability for 5-year flooding as well as 100-year flooding within the 100' right of way that is proposed for the stream bed. The stream bed right-of-way shall also function as a landscaped pedestrian/bicycle walkway that will complement the proposed Downtown Revitalization Project and is planned to ultimately intersect the Santa Ana River Trail located a few miles southerly of this location. The project will also provide a cost-effective alternative to the freeway widening project's required underground drainage complex. The Downtown Revitalization Project was conceived to alleviate the City's high groundwater table in the area and possible subsequent liquefaction activity during earthquake moments. The Lakes and Streams Project (Phase I) will be situated between Base Line and 9'h Streets and the 1-215 Freeway and "E" Street. The project proposes to develop a series of retention ponds with connecting streams to circulate and store groundwater that has been drawn to lower the previously mentioned high groundwater table. The project is located in the Santa Ana Watershed District and is specifically located within the San Bernardino Basin area. This basin is one of the largest groundwater basins in southern California with an estimated 5.5 million acre-feet of water. The basin area serves as a primary water supply for over 800,000 residents that reside and work in more than ten municipalities. The basin has been degraded over time with man's interaction and developmental activities which have contributed extensive contaminates in the groundwater, causing local! regional water agencies to spend millions of dollars for clean up of the underground water supply. Contaminants in the basin include TCE, PCE, DBPC, and perchlorate. Additionally, there are several LUST sites within the basin area where remediation activities are underway to prevent the migration of hydrocarbons, MTBE, and the breakdown products from further contaminating the drinking water supplies. One area of additional contaminant contribution to the groundwater, which this project intends to address, can be storm water runoff being percolated to groundwater, rather than discharges to surface water systems without treatment. Runoff from roads and freeways contain significant amounts of hydrocarbons and related contaminants that, if allowed to migrate to groundwater, will require additional well-head treatment to insure that the groundwater will comply with all potable water quality standards. 2002-89 . 2) The goals and objectives of the Vision Creek Project are consistent with the application criteria set forth in Prop 13 Article 2. Nonpoint Source Pollution Control Prol!ram: 791lla: Best management practices, c) Management measures; 79114 (a) 2. A broad-based nonpoint source project... (b) The projects funded from the subaccount shall demonstrate a capability of sustaining water quality benefits for a period of twenty years. Categories of nonpoint source pollution addressed by projects may include: urban runoff. hydromodification are proiect Qualifiers. Projects to address nonpoint source pollution include: engineered features to minimize impacts of nonpoint source pollution is a proiect Qualifier. 3) The Vision Creek Project is compatible with the SWRCB Guidelines set forth for in Section 6 of the ARD for: Manal!ement Measures for Urban Areas: 3.3 Runoff from Existing Development A) Existing development; and F) Road, Highway and Bridge Runoff Systems. The project will endeavor to alleviate the problems caused by urban (freeway) mnoff and subsequent pollution of groundwater resources by developing strategies that augment source reduction practices throughout the three specified phases of development which are I) design phase 2) construction phase and 3) the post-development phase. The Vision Creek Project is also compatible with and similar to the Inventory of Nonpoint Source Implementation Projects and Priorities (Santa Ana Region) that are listed in Section 4 of the ARD (page 23). The projects that are specifically similar are: The Fountain Valley List: 10) Projects that divert nuisance flows throughout the region. 19) Reduce urban runoff, the transport conveyance mechanism... Loma Linda List: 9) Enhanced storm water capture.. 22) drainage facilities to reduce/control runoff. 4) Scope of Work: Phase I : Base Line to Olive Street $150,000. Design/Preliminary Engineering $250.000. Construction Engineering $750,000. Right-of-way costs/home acquisitions $750,000. Grade and install concrete riprap stream channel $500,000. Construction of detention desilting basins/ponds $100,000. Storm drain construction $2,500,000. Project Cost utilizing best management practices and measures + $500,000 (20%) Local Match: City/ Municipal Water District contributions 5) The success and impact of the project will be measured through water quality source testing of nearby wells and the project's impact on the groundwater fluctuation levels at the retention basin pump station to be located adjacent to the proposed location of the stream at Base Line and "G" Streets. The aesthetic value of the pedestrian walkway and open space buffer between properties and the 1-215 freeway corridor is also worth mentioning. 6) The project will ensure community and stakeholder outreach involvement through a continuing series of public meetings related to the "water project". Also, local residents will see and read in the local newspaper about their community being transformed in a positive manner that emphasizes humanistic appreciation of open space and a healthier pollution-free environment. u_~ "f~ *} ~l r 2002-89 ~ <'c.":;";:;::,':: "^,,' ".'.,-,..,c. ;',-,'-'.!~;-~', City of San Bernardino, California Department of Development Services/Public Works Vision Creek . .'~.;. ,.l\,(,H ~::;?:""i' -=--~'O ~ g> "-~ * ~ '" ff' ~ " - - '-"-----'-~' ------ ,8, .
