A Note about Additional Phases of ASR

 

The Water Project 2 description only carries the District through the expansion to Phase 2 of ASR.  However, there has been discussion surrounding additional aquifer storage and recovery in the Santa Margarita sandstone aquifer.  Our own supply discussion includes up to 3,000 AFY of additional supply from ASR.  While the resource and technology has now been proven, the aquifer has not yet been sufficiently studied for preferred expansion sites, nor has the environmental process been initiated.

 

Expansion beyond the components included in the original Regional Project EIR may require a separate EIR of their own, as well as an investigation into the aquifer hydrogeologic conditions at potential future expansion sites.  Although Cal-Am has already taken steps to explore a third phase of ASR (without direct District support as with Water Project 2), much work will need to be done on environmental assessment and technical assessment.  Those costs are not included or discussed in this work plan.

Water Project 3: Local Desalination at

Navy Property Located Near the Naval Support Activity, Monterey

 

Work Plan Tasks

 

Task 1:  In-House Specifications and Preliminary Constraints Analysis

 

Staff is to determine a proxy footprint for a 2 million gallon per day (mgd) Sea Water Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) desalting treatment plant and identify the ability to fit on site.  A minimum of 4 mgd of feed water may be required (note: additional feedwater capacity would be required if 50% filter efficiency cannot be achieved).  Identify expansion space, if any.  Identify additional infrastructure required (see attached Figure 1 and Tables 1 and 2).  Determine approximate power needs.  Identify options for source water and brine discharge.  Develop into summary document.

 

Meet with following to discuss initial project scope:

 

            U.S. Navy to discuss facilities layout and discuss a letter of intent

            California Coastal Commission to discuss set-backs and infrastructure

            Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary to discuss intake and discharge

            NOAA Fisheries to discuss intake and discharge

            Regional Water Quality Control Board to discuss intake and discharge

           

            California American Water to discuss infrastructure requirements

            California Department of Parks and Recreation to discuss land use limitations

            State Lands Commission to discuss intake and discharge

 

Additional agencies if a new pipeline is required for brine discharge to the Regional Treatment Plant owned by Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA):

 

            City of Sand City

            City of Seaside

            City of Marina

            MRWPCA

 

Develop a preliminary list of constraints based on meetings.

 

Budget: Internal

Timeline:  4-6  months

 

Task 2:  Hydrostratigraphic Field Investigation

 

Two alternatives may be studied for intake source water and brine discharge: 1. an open ocean intake and discharge; 2. a Ranney collector and separate diffuser installed under the ocean seafloor.  For the latter alternative, offshore hydrogeologic conditions need to be analyzed to determine the suitability for development of feedwater from under the seafloor in proximity to the Navy-owned site.

 

A 1990 hydrologic investigation performed by Staal, Gardner, and Dunne (SGD) for MPWMD concerning the coastal basin near the site showed that development of the inland coastal area as a brackish water source would be impractical.   The potential for locating beach wells was also investigated.  The thickness of sand overlying Monterey formation (shale beds) adjacent to the site was determined to be about 20 feet, with a yield per well of about 100 gallons per minute (gpm).  A 4 mgd intake system would require approximately 30 wells spaced 200 feet apart to avoid interference.  This would require just over one mile of beach front area for a well field.  The beach front area from the Monterey Harbor to the City of Seaside includes the Monterey Municipal Beach, Del Monte Beach and Monterey State Beach.  These are all popular recreation areas and some of the beach area is considered sensitive habitat that is host to plant and animal species protected under the Endangered Species Act.  In addition to the long-term potential for coastal erosion, access to the beach to drill and maintain such a large number of wells could be problematic.

 

The 1990 SGD study did suggest that the District could consider a subsea intake system using a horizontal well placed just below the ocean floor.    Analysis of the offshore undersea area must address the needs of the collection mechanisms and discharges identified in the specifications and constraints analysis.  Results should identify favorable locations (e.g. ancient channels and/or areas with an adequate overlying thickness of sand), confirm intake yield sufficiency, and investigate the potential for discharging brine through a diffuser pipe located under the seafloor.

 

Budget: $100,000 - $125,000

Timeline:  4 months

 

Task 3:  Develop Project Facilities Alternatives

 

A consulting engineer will be hired to develop conceptual layouts, sizing, and costs for prospective facilities, including seawater collection and disposal alternatives, transmission facilities required, treated water storage, and other appurtenant infrastructure.

 

Budget: $50,000 - $100,000

Timeline:  2 months

 

Task 4:  Execute Constraints Analysis

 

Based on the identified concept designs, the consultant will evaluate each concept plan against 8 criteria:

 

i)                   Technical Feasibility:  Viability of source water production; hydrogeologic issues; brine disposal methodology; shoreline erosion.

ii)                 Reliability:  Is water supply sustainable?

iii)               Permitting:  List permits and timeline.  Foreseeable permit hurdles?

iv)               Public Acceptance:  Is there organized opposition?

v)                 Environmental:  Energy usage; Impacts to Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary; etc.

vi)               Regulatory:  Compliance with Seaside Basin Adjudication and CDO

vii)             Cost: Capital, operations, and cost per acre-foot.

viii)           Schedule:  Project timeline and completion date

 

Land use issues will be detailed – primarily with the California Coastal Commission (CCC), State Lands Commission, the California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR), the Department of the Navy, the City of Monterey and other agencies as required. 

 

Feedwater collection, water treatment, and brine discharge constraints will likely include interaction with the NOAA Monterey Bay National Maritime Sanctuary (MBNMS), which adopted desalination facility siting guidelines in May 2010, the US Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), the CCC, State Lands Commission, California Department of Fish and Game (DFG), State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) for water quality under its Ocean Plan, and the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) through administration of discharge permits.

 

Other agencies include the County Department of Public Health (DPH) for well drilling, the Monterey Bay Unified Air Pollution Control District (MBUAPCD), and possibly the Monterey Regional Water Pollution Control Agency (MRWPCA) who will require brine characterization studies for its NPDES permit if their outfall is utilized.

 

Once constraints are identified, project alternatives will be screened and ranked, and a preferred alternative identified.

 

Budget: $100,000 - $125,000

Timeline:  4 months

 

Task 5:  Develop Detailed Project Description

 

For the top 2-3 alternative concept designs, a consultant will identify and carry out additional field studies that are needed to further refine the project.  A final project description will be prepared for the EIR, including site layout, source and discharge water facilities, pipelines and alignments, and connections to Cal-Am and Navy property (if appropriate).  Cost estimates will be prepared.

 

If pilot testing is recommended, a detailed work plan will be developed and schedule revised.

 

Budget: $40,000 - $80,000

Timeline:  4 months

 

 

Task 6:  Prepare Combined Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement

 

Because the site is a federal facility, a NEPA Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) will be required and a combined EIS-EIR used to satisfy the CEQA process.   Requirements for an EIS and EIR and their preparation may be considered to be similar, but additional time may be required.

 

It should be noted that development of a lease agreement with the Department of the Navy is anticipated to take approximately 18 months and would be carried out concurrently with the environmental analysis for the project.

 

Budget: $250,000 - $500,000

Timeline:  24 months

Implementation Plan

Water Project 5

Increasing Capacity at Los Padres Dam

 

 

In this project, two scenarios would be examined:

 

Dredging in order to restore an original water right.

 

Original Water Right (1948)                                                                      3,030 AF

Current Right (reduced by Order 95-10)                                             2,179 AF

Restored Right                                                                                                    851 AF

 

Estimated Storage                                                                                          1,775 AF

Sediment Removal Required to Restore 1948 Right                       1,255 AF

                                                                                                                                                3,030 AF

 

Additional water provided for stream flow:                                       404 AF (1,255 minus 851)

 

A seasonal rubber dam and transfer a portion of District’s 20808 Water Right.

 

The existing spillway is 18 feet below the dam height.  It is contemplated that 5 to 10 feet of height can be added during certain times of the year to increase storage without inundating the Ventana Wilderness.  This would provide 340 AF to 680 AF of new capacity.  It is recognized that spillway modifications and widening may be required, as will enhanced fish passage.
