GENERAL PLAN IMPLEMENTATION Infrastructure Element Goal 1.0: Ensure water, sewer, and storm drain systems that meet the needs of residents and businesses. Policy 1.1: Provide sufficient levels of water, sewer, and storm drain service throughout the community. 7. DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND The City operates two wastewater lift stations. One is located near the intersection of Stacey Lee Lane and Santiago Boulevard. The other is located within the street right -of -way on River Avenue near Hart Park. While the lift stations are operational, they are aged and require extensive periodic maintenance and repairs. The Stacey Lee Lane lift station was installed in 1978 and the Hart Park lift station was installed in 1974. To ensure continuous operations at each of the lift stations, major system components (e.g. pumps, controllers, and wiring) require replacement. The improvements will include replacement of the existing pumps, valves, piping, panels, conduit and wiring. It will also involve the reconstruction of the concrete manhole structure at Hart Park. New SCADA communication systems will be provided and a portable generator receptacle will be added. Construction may result in the interruption of access to and from Hart Park at the River Avenue entrance but work will not impact the main entrances to the park. Construction at the Stacey Lee Lane station may result in brief impacts to the neighboring residents but full access will be maintained at all times. The construction is scheduled to begin in March 2014 and be completed in ninety (90) calendar days. Public Works has completed the preparation of construction plans and bid documents for the lift station rehabilitation and is requesting authorization to advertise and receive public bids for this project. Total estimated construction costs are $220,000 which includes 15% for contingencies and construction engineering. Following the bid opening, when total expenses are confirmed, staff will return to Council with a recommendation to award the project and to appropriate sufficient funds to complete the project. The proposed project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 "Existing Facilities" and Section 15302 "Replacement or Reconstruction ". These categorical exemptions apply to the proposed projects because they involve minor alterations and replacement of system components for two existing City -owned sewer lift stations. The proposed improvements are needed to maintain the existing sewer system and involve negligible or no expansion of the use or system capacity. Following City Council approval, staff will file a Notice of Exemption with the County Clerk in compliance with CEQA. 8.
