Via Email to:[email protected]; [email protected] Re: Paradise Sewer Project, Butte County
Dear Ms. Ruth:

A record search of the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) Sacred Lands File (SLF) was completed for the information you have submitted for the above referenced project. The results were negative. However, the absence of specific site information in the SLF does not indicate the absence of cultural resources in any project area. Other sources of cultural resources should also be contacted for information regarding known and recorded sites.

Attached is a list of Native American tribes who may also have knowledge of cultural resources in the project area. This list should provide a starting place in locating areas of potential adverse impact within the proposed project area. I suggest you contact all of those indicated; if they cannot supply information, they might recommend others with specific knowledge. By contacting all those listed, your organization will be better able to respond to claims of failure to consult with the appropriate tribe. If a response has not been received within two weeks of notification, the Commission requests that you follow-up with a telephone call or email to ensure that the project information has been received.

If you receive notification of change of addresses and phone numbers from tribes, please notify me. With your assistance, we can assure that our lists contain current information.

If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at my email address: [email protected].

Sincerely,
Nancy Gonzalez-Lopez
Cultural Resources Analyst

Subject: Notice of Opportunity to Consult Under Assembly Bill 52 for the Paradise Sewer Project in Butte County, California
Honorable Chairperson Lopez,
The Town of Paradise (Town), as the Lead Agency for the Paradise Sewer Project (Proposed Project), is providing this notice of opportunity to request notification from the Town for consultation regarding the Proposed Project pursuant to Public Resources Code (PRC) section 21080.3.1 and Chapter 532, Statutes of 2014 (i.e., AB 52).

Since its incorporation in 1979, the Town has sought a formal wastewater treatment solution for the community, with service for commercial and densely populated residential areas being a priority. Failed and failing septic systems create the potential for public health and environmental concerns and have limited economic growth. Prior to the Camp Fire, which almost completely destroyed the town in 2018, Paradise was the largest unsewered community in California. A new wastewater management solution is needed to improve the local economy (e.g., encourage opening of new businesses) and reduce the potential for public health and environmental concerns caused by failed or failing septic systems.

The objectives of the Proposed Project are as follows:
• Provide a sewer system to serve Paradise in compliance with the Town of Paradise 1994 General Plan policies LUO-10, ESP-6, LUP-16, and LUI-7 (Quad Consultants 2008). • Provide long-term, efficient, reliable, high quality treatment of wastewater in a cost-effective, environmentally beneficial manner to the people of Paradise. • Improve the handling of wastewater in Paradise to address the economic and environmental concerns of the current system.
• Connect to the existing Chico Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP) to provide efficient regional treatment of wastewater with no additional cost to City of Chico rate payers. 1581
Existing Facilities
Wastewater treatment facilities in Paradise consist of individual, privately owned septic tanks and soil absorption disposal systems known as leach fields, together with several engineered subsurface disposal systems serving commercial and institutional facilities. Businesses and residences near the future sewer system continue to rely on septic tanks and leach field systems for wastewater treatment and disposal.

The Proposed Project consists of three constructed components—a wastewater collection system in Paradise, an 18-mile export pipeline to convey wastewater to the Chico WPCP, and connection to the WPCP—and operation of the new sewer system. The export pipeline would begin at the southwest edge of Paradise and run for approximately 8 miles along Skyway until reaching south Chico, at which point the pipeline would leave Skyway and continue west, crossing Butte Creek, Highway 99, and the Union Pacific Railroad, and terminating at the Chico WPCP in Chico. The Proposed Project would not change the service area of the Chico WPCP other than the addition of the Paradise connection and treatment.

Moreover, there would be no additional fees for Chico residents and rate payers as a result of the Proposed Project.

Sewer Service Area
The sewer service area (SSA) would serve approximately 1,500 parcels (out of the 11,000 total parcels in Paradise) along the Skyway, Clark Road, and Pearson Road corridors. The SSA also would serve most businesses in Paradise and would enable future construction of affordable multi-family housing, which is limited because of multiple septic system constraints such as high groundwater, poor soils, and limited parcel sizes.

At the time of initial operation, an estimated 360 occupied parcels within the SSA would be generating an average wastewater flow of 109,000 gpd. It is estimated that it could take 30 years for the entire SSA to be occupied, at which time the average wastewater flow would be 448,000 gpd. The Town is considering this level of development and wastewater flow in planning its wastewater treatment solutions.

Collection System
The collection system would serve all parcels within the SSA, and would consist of a system of gravity sewers, small pump stations, and force mains. This collection system would enable properties within the SSA to have existing septic tanks and leach line systems abandoned altogether and would remove future onsite wastewater treatment and dispersal requirements. Because of the varied topography within the SSA, a number of pump stations and pressurized force mains would be required to pump flows out of valleys and swales, and back up to an adjacent gravity sewer. The collection system would consist of approximately 157,000 feet of 2- to 4-inch-diameter force mains, 29,000 feet of 8-inchdiameter gravity trunk lines, and 28 pump stations, all within public right-of-way. The gravity sewers would come together at the southwest edge of town, on Skyway, where they would transition to the export pipeline to the Chico WPCP.
1582
Export Pipeline
The proposed export pipeline would start along Skyway at the south end of the Paradise collection system and would continue southwest along Skyway. Near Chico, at the bend where Skyway turns north, the pipeline would continue west, heading cross-country with crossings of Butte Creek and Highway 99 until reaching Midway, and would proceed into Chico and end at the Chico WPCP. The connection to the Chico WPCP is not associated with other ongoing facility upgrades. Figure 1 of Attachment A shows the proposed export pipeline route and connection to the Chico WPCP.

Consultation
At this time, the Town is seeking to consult with California Native American tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the Proposed Project area, in compliance with CEQA, California Public Resources Code (PRC) section 21080.3.1. The Town has requested the assistance of the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC), in compliance with PRC 21080.3.1(c) to provide a list of California Native American tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the Proposed Project area. The NAHC has provided a list of California Native American tribes in support of these efforts, and the Town is reaching out to each of the contacts provided.

The Town would like to take this opportunity to notify the KonKow Valley Band of Maidu of an opportunity to consult with SSWD regarding the potential for this Proposed Project to impact tribal cultural resources, as defined in PRC section 21074. The purposes of tribal consultation under Section 21080.3.1 is to determine, as part of the CEQA review process, whether tribal cultural resources are present within the Proposed Project area, and if so, whether the Proposed Project will significantly impact those resources. If tribal cultural resources may be significantly impacted, then consultation will also help to determine the most appropriate way to avoid or mitigate those impacts.

In accordance with Section 21080.3.1(d) of the PRC, please respond within 30 days from the receipt of this letter to either request or decline consultation in writing for this Project. Please send your written response to:

Dear Director Taylor,
The Town of Paradise (Town), as the Lead Agency for the Paradise Sewer Project (Proposed Project), is providing this notice of opportunity to request notification from the Town for consultation regarding the Proposed Project pursuant to Public Resources Code (PRC) section 21080.3.1 and Chapter 532, Statutes of 2014 (i.e., AB 52).

Since its incorporation in 1979, the Town has sought a formal wastewater treatment solution for the community, with service for commercial and densely populated residential areas being a priority.

The Proposed Project would not change the service area of the Chico WPCP other than the addition of the Paradise connection and treatment.

Moreover, there would be no additional fees for Chico residents and rate payers as a result of the Proposed Project.

This collection system would enable properties within the SSA to have existing septic tanks and leach line systems abandoned altogether and would remove future onsite wastewater treatment and dispersal requirements. Because of the varied topography within the SSA, a number of pump stations and pressurized force mains would be required to pump flows out of valleys and swales, and back up to an adjacent gravity sewer. The collection system would consist of approximately 157,000 feet of 2- to 4-inch-diameter force mains, 29,000 feet of 8-inchdiameter gravity trunk lines, and 28 pump stations, all within public right-of-way. The gravity sewers would come together at the southwest edge of town, on Skyway, where they would transition to the export pipeline to the Chico WPCP.
1603
Export Pipeline
The proposed export pipeline would start along Skyway at the south end of the Paradise collection system and would continue southwest along Skyway. Near Chico, at the bend where Skyway turns north, the pipeline would continue west, heading cross-country with crossings of Butte Creek and Highway 99 until reaching Midway, and would proceed into Chico and end at the Chico WPCP. The connection to the Chico WPCP is not associated with other ongoing facility upgrades. Figure 1 of Attachment A shows the proposed export pipeline route and connection to the Chico WPCP.

Consultation
At this time, the Town is seeking to consult with California Native American tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the Proposed Project area, in compliance with CEQA, California Public Resources Code (PRC) section 21080.3.1. The Town has requested the assistance of the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC), in compliance with PRC 21080.3.1(c) to provide a list of California Native American tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the Proposed Project area. The NAHC has provided a list of California Native American tribes in support of these efforts, and the Town is reaching out to each of the contacts provided.

The Town would like to take this opportunity to notify the Mooretown Rancheria of Maidu Indians of an opportunity to consult with SSWD regarding the potential for this Proposed Project to impact tribal cultural resources, as defined in PRC section 21074. The purposes of tribal consultation under Section 21080.3.1 is to determine, as part of the CEQA review process, whether tribal cultural resources are present within the Proposed Project area, and if so, whether the Proposed Project will significantly impact those resources. If tribal cultural resources may be significantly impacted, then consultation will also help to determine the most appropriate way to avoid or mitigate those impacts.

In accordance with Section 21080.3.1(d) of the PRC, please respond within 30 days from the receipt of this letter to either request or decline consultation in writing for this Project. Please send your written response to:

Cc: Stanley, Ashley; Mattox, Marc; Buttz, John; Edwards, Dawn Subject: Paradise Sewer Project update, request for review Date: Thursday, April 7, 2022 2:34:41 PM
Attachments: REPORT_EIS_EIS_FIGURE_X_Deleted_Alternatives.pdf Greetings Chairwoman Lopez, Cultural Resource Director Williford, and THPO McHenry – The Town of Paradise has asked HDR to relay a Sewer Project update to you. We have adjusted the pipeline alignment of the Proposed Project in the south part of Chico, on the west side of Highway 99 (see attached figure). We would like your input regarding potential impacts to Tribal Cultural Resources caused by this change. The attached figure is marked up so you can compare the new proposed pipeline alignment to the previously-proposed alignment.

The proposed export pipeline crossing of Hwy 99 has been updated to eliminate two alternatives west of the trenchless crossing of Hwy 99: the Southgate Ave-McFadden Lane-Midway alternative and the Norfield Ave-Midway alternative. The proposed export pipeline will now follow Entler Avenue to Midway with two options for trenchless crossing at Hwy 99: either at the northeast end of Norfield Avenue (the teal dashed line shown in the attached figure) or at the northeast end of Southgate Ave (the orange dotted line in the attached). The change was based in part on feedback we received from you through the AB52 consultation process and the Town anticipates that the potential for impacts from the new Entler Ave-Midway route will be less than the previous Southgate Ave-McFadden Lane-Midway and the Norfield Ave-Midway alternatives.

The Town would like to know if you have any concerns or questions about these changes, and if these changes would result in a change to potential impacts to Tribal Cultural Resources. I’m available to discuss on the phone and can set up calls/meetings with the Town if that is preferred.

Please let me know how you would like to proceed.

Thank you,
Monica

I Responses to Comment Letters Received during
Public Review of Draft PEIR
I.1 Introduction
This Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) was prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Cal. Pub. Res. Code Section 21000, et seq.) and State CEQA Guidelines (Cal. Code Regs. Section 15000, et seq.). The Town of Paradise is the lead agency for the environmental review of the proposed Paradise Sewer Project and has the principal responsibility for approving the project. This Final PEIR assesses the expected environmental impacts resulting from the adoption and implementation of the proposed project and responds to public comments received on the Draft EIR.

The following sections contain
1) a review of CEQA Guidelines pertinent to public comments and responses, 2) a matrix of all letters and corresponding Town responses, and 3) copies of the original comment letters.

In two cases, comments received on the Draft PEIR prompted the addition of text to the final version of the document i.e., the Final PEIR. These changes are shown in bold format in the Final EIR. No deletions were made as a result of public comments. Small grammatical or punctuation changes that were made are not specifically called out (e.g., adding a period at end of sentence, fixing misspellings). No changes were made to the Draft PEIR appendices (App. A – H); however this appendix (Appendix I) is a new attachment to the Final PEIR.

The Final EIR also includes informational updates and clarifications. Beyond the requirements set by CEQA and relevant court cases discussed below, every attempt has been made to respond to comments that address the project in general, in an effort to provide the most complete information possible.

I.2 Responsibilities of the Town
CEQA Guidelines Section 15088(b) requires that responses be made to only those comments that are specific to the Draft EIR. In addition, in the court case Browning-Ferris Industries of California, Inc. v. San Jose 181 Cal. App. 3d 852 (1986), the court stated that the Lead Agency must respond to all significant environmental comments in a level of detail commensurate with that of the comment, citing Gallegos v. California Board of Forestry 76 Cal. App. 3d 945 (1978), Twain Harte Homeowners Association v. County of Tuolumne 128 Cal. App. 3d 664 (1982), and Cleary v. County of Stanislaus 118 Cal. App. 3d 348 (1981). Following are additional Lead Agency responsibilities as described in CEQA Guidelines (Section 15088):
• (a) “The lead agency shall evaluate comments on environmental issues received from persons who reviewed the draft EIR and shall prepare a written response. The Lead Agency 1623
shall respond to comments raising significant environmental issues received during the noticed comment period and any extensions and may respond to late comments” (15088(a)) • (b) “The lead agency shall provide a written proposed response, either in a printed copy or in an electronic format, to a public agency on comments made by that public agency at least 10 days prior to certifying an environmental impact report” (15088 (b)). • (c) “The written response shall describe the disposition of significant environmental issues raised (e.g., revisions to the proposed project to mitigate anticipated impacts or objections).

In particular, the major environmental issues raised when the Lead Agency‘s position is at variance with recommendations and objections raised in the comments must be addressed in detail giving reasons why specific comments and suggestions were not accepted. There must be good faith, reasoned analysis in response. Conclusory statements unsupported by factual information will not suffice. The level of detail contained in the response, however, may correspond to the level of detail provided in the comment (i.e., responses to general comments may be general). A general response may be appropriate when a comment does not contain or specifically refer to readily available information, or does not explain the relevance of evidence submitted with the comment” (15088(c)). • (d) “The response to comments may take the form of a revision to the draft EIR or may be a separate section in the final EIR. Where the response to comments makes important changes in the information contained in the text of the draft EIR, the Lead Agency should either:
1) Revise the text in the body of the EIR, or
2) Include marginal notes showing that the information is revised in the response to comments (15088(d)).

Finally, “if any public agency or person who is consulted with regard to an EIR or Negative Declaration fails to comment within a reasonable time as specified by the Lead Agency, it shall be assumed, without a request for a specific extension of time, that such agency or person has no comment to make. Although the Lead Agency need not respond to late comments, the Lead Agency may choose to respond to them” (CEQA Guidelines Section 15207).

The Town’s responses to each comment on the Draft PEIR represent a good-faith, reasoned effort to address the environmental issues identified by the comments. Accordingly, Town staff’s and its consultants’ final analysis provided in the responses to comments are backed by substantial evidence. Likewise, the Town’s legal counsel prepared and/or independently reviewed responses to the Draft PEIR comments.

I.3 Responsibilities of the Commenter
CEQA Guidelines Section 15132(d) requires that the Final EIR consist of the responses of the Lead Agency to significant environmental points raised in the review and consultation process. In addition, CEQA Guidelines Sections 15201 and 15204 discuss public participation regarding the review and evaluation of EIRs. Specifically, Section 15204 states the following:
• “(a) In reviewing draft EIRs, persons and public agencies should focus on the sufficiency of the document in identifying and analyzing the possible impacts on the environment and ways in which the significant effects of the project might be avoided or mitigated. Comments are most helpful when they suggest additional specific alternatives or mitigation measures that 1624
would provide better ways to avoid or mitigate the significant environmental effects. At the same time, reviewers should be aware that the adequacy of an EIR is determined in terms of what is reasonably feasible, in light of factors such as the magnitude of the project at issue, the severity of its likely environmental impacts, and the geographic scope of the project.

CEQA does not require a lead agency to conduct every test or perform all research, study, and experimentation recommended or demanded by commentors. When responding to comments, lead agencies need only respond to significant environmental issues and do not need to provide all information requested by reviewers, as long as a good faith effort at full disclosure is made in the EIR” (15204 (a)).
• “(c) Reviewers should explain the basis for their comments, and should submit data or references offering facts, reasonable assumptions based on facts, or expert opinion supported by facts in support of the comments. Pursuant to [CEQA Guidelines] Section 15064, an effect shall not be considered significant in the absence of substantial evidence” (15204 (c)).
• “(d) Reviewing agencies or organizations should include with their comments the name of a contact person who would be available for later consultation if necessary. Each responsible agency and trustee agency shall focus its comments on environmental information germane to that agency’s statutory responsibility (15204 (d)).
• (e) This section shall not be used to restrict the ability of reviewers to comment on the general adequacy of a document or of the lead agency to reject comments not focused as recommended by this section (15204 (e)).
• “(f) Prior to the close of the public review period for an EIR or mitigated negative declaration, a responsible or trustee agency which has identified significant effects on the environment may submit to the lead agency proposed mitigation measures which would address those significant effects. Any such measures shall be limited to impacts affecting those resources that are subject to the statutory authority of that agency. If mitigation measures are submitted, the responsible or trustee agency shall either submit to the lead agency complete and detailed performance objectives for the mitigation measures, or shall refer the lead agency to appropriate, readily available guidelines or reference documents which meet the same purpose” (15204 (f)).

I am inquiring for my partner, who lost his home in the fire… How do I find out if his property would be affected by an Easement should this sewer project be approved? This could impact how/when he rebuilds. Property address is 5975 N.

Libby. Is there a list of locations where the easements would be going?
Thank you for your message. You can go to https://paradisesewer.com/ and scroll down to “Find My Property”. If you input your friend’s address, it will show you whether it is within the proposed sewer area.

Linda Barton July 25, 2022 W2 1
I am about to choose a builder to finally rebuild in Paradise.

At this moment, it appears the sewer project for Paradise will help those businesses on Skyway. Which means 99%+ of the residents won't benefit from this undertaking. Who is going to pay for this very expensive but necessary project? I am not interested in seeing it listed when I get my property tax bill.

The Town has secured grant funding for the development of the preliminary engineering and preparation of the environmental documentation. We are also working to secure grant funding for the design, right-of-way, and construction stages of the project. The connection fees have not yet been determined for property owners connecting to the system.

Thank you for the information that you provided on federal regulatory requirements that must be met as part of the Town’s proposed Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) funding application process. We understand that the list of necessary actions referenced in your comment letter pertain to the Town’s pursuit of CWSRF funding, along with the corresponding CEQA+ process. We understand that this is not a list of actions and materials that are being recommended for inclusion in the Draft PEIR; therefore, no change has been made to the PEIR.

I saw on the project schedule that these phases are
anticipated to begin in Summer 2022, but I wasn't sure if that meant they have already started or not. Thank you! Thank you for your comment and question. We have not yet started design or right of way, as we are still seeking funding for this phase of the design. We will update paradisesewer.com as soon as an updated timeline is established.

Will the agreement with Chico permit all pumped septic
loads to be disposed of in paradise rather than continuing to be disposed of at the County land fill lagoon. Own property at 2199 De Mille Rd.

The publlic Sewer Regionalization Project Advisory Committee (SRPAC) drafted the Principals of Agreement, which were the outline of the draft Intermunicipal Agreement (IMA) between the Town of Paradise and the City of Chico. Currently, only residential and commercial sewer connections are identified and accounted for in the Sewer Service Area (SSA) and sewer discharge that will be discharged at the City of Chico Water Pollution Control Plant. Pumped septic systems discharges from residents or businesses are not accommodated in the discharge to the Chico WPCP. Disposal of pumped septic loads will not change as it is outside of the scope of this Project.

Pam Galloway Aug 2, 2022 W5 1
I think it is a stupid waste of money that could be used for a different project. The cost of the project, the amount of time necessary to complete the sewer project and the number of people who would benefit from it should make it a non
starter.

Thank you for your input. The Town appreciates all viewpoints and opinions expressed by our community.

Brian Anderson Aug 3, 2022 W6 1 Who will handle the collection system and pump stations daily operations?

Brian Anderson 2 What type(s) of odor control systems will be used? The Proposed Project includes the use of odor control canisters, as stated in Section 2.8 of the Draft PEIR.

Section 3.3.4.4 explains "Routine operations and maintenance activities will include periodic inspection of the odor control cannisters, which will be provided at the Export Pipeline System’s flow control and metering structure." Section 2.8 further elaborates: "Physical on-site inspection and maintenance of the air release valves and odor control canisters would be done according to the maintenance protocols that accompany the devices, and would occur every 6 months to ensure optimal performance of these devices. Air release valves would be inspected to ensure they are operating properly. The odor control canisters would be replaced as needed when the carbon media becomes saturated and loses the ability to absorb odors." Brian Anderson 3 And projected annual cost? The current level of design has not yet supported this level of detailed planning; annual costs have not yet been projected.

Brian Anderson 4 Where will biosolids and sewage debris be removed to? Town of Paradise flows will join with City of Chico flows at the Chico Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP), from which point they are treated per the Chico WPCP's current processing standards. Section 2.4.2 in the Draft PEIR outlines this process: "The sludge (biosolids) portion of the wastewater is treated by anaerobic digestion, followed by mechanical dewatering. The resulting biosolids are then hauled directly from the Chico WPCP for land application in unincorporated Sacramento County, California." Brian Anderson 5
How many full time employees will be hired to operate and maintain Paradise Wastewater Collection and
Transportation?
As stated in Section 3.3.4.1 of the Draft PEIR : "About 5-10 permanent employees would be required to serve the Proposed Project during operations and maintenance." Section 2.8 provides a further breakdown of that number: "The wastewater operations team would include…: administrative and reception staff, accounting staff, three field crew/utility staff, and one on-site service technician." Brian Anderson 6 Under what jurisdiction/license will Paradise Wastewater be in compliance with State Water Resources Control Board? The treatment and discharge of the flow from the Town of Paradise will be handled under the City of Chico's current permits, as outlined in Section 2.4.2 of the Draft PEIR: "The Proposed Project… would not increase nor substantially decrease the availability of sewer service within the City or County (see more details in Section 2.5.1 Core Collection System and assessment of effects in Section 3.18.4, Impact Analysis [Utilities and Service Systems]). Therefore, the Town’s connection falls within the requirements of this NPDES permit." Currently, the City's treated wastewater "is regulated in accordance with National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit No. CA0079081", as also stated in Section 2.4.2.

Brian Anderson 7 What city department will oversee Paradise wastewater operations?
The Town's Public Works department would oversee the operations of the Proposed Project. See Section 2.8 of the Draft PEIR: "The existing Public Works director would serve in a management role over sewer functions."
Ivan Garcia Aug 5, 2022 W7 1
Good luck on the project. Would like to encourage and
support the paving of a multi-use path on top of your sewer line with the ability to connect this new path to the
intersection of Honey run/Skyway near Skyway golf park on the west and to the Paradise Memorial Trail in Paradise. I would suggest paving so that you can send emergency
equipment up the hill to fully utilize the Skyway for
emergency evacuations.

Thank you for your comment. The Proposed Project includes a sewer pipeline and wastewater collection system. The design and construction of pedestrian or bicycle facilities are outside of the scope of the Proposed Project. Skyway falls under County jurisdiction, and is outside of the Town's jurisdiction. Your recommendations have been noted and will be referred to the County as a potential feature for coordination with future project opportunities.

As natural disasters increase in frequency and severity, climate change is becoming harder and harder to ignore. The rise in these disasters along with an overall growing sense of crisis when it comes to the environment is causing an
increase in climate anxiety.

In fact, a recent Yale survey found that 70 percent of
Americans are now “very or somewhat worried about global warming.”
I thought this would be an interesting topic to cover in a guest article for your website. I would address the increase in climate anxiety and what your site visitors can do to relieve their stress while also helping the environment.

What do you think?
Thank you for your email. I appreciate your offer. Right now we are focused on the Paradise Sewer EIR, but if we see a fit in the future, we will let you know.

Rick Hoddinott Aug 8, 2022 W9 1
Along the proposed alignment for the export pipeline on Entler Avenue, what is the pipe constructed of and where will it be located along the roadway?
Thank you for your questions. Section 2.5.2 of the Draft PEIR explains that the Export Pipeline System would be located within the Butte County right-of-way on Entler Avenue. As stated in Section 2.5.2.3, "the following materials are anticipated to be used on the Export Pipeline System construction:
• PVC pipe and miscellaneous fittings
• Concrete maintenance holes
• Precast concrete cylinders for the Transition Chamber, the Flow Control and Metering Structure, and associated mechanical and electrical equipment for installation at each of the two structures • Metal carrier pipe at each of the five trenchless crossings • Temporary and permanent paving (asphalt)
• Backfill material"
Rick Hoddinott 2 How will the project address nearby wells which may be located near the proposed alignment?
As stated in Section 3.10.1.4: "Historical use of high-density septic systems and leach fields in Paradise have resulted in surface and groundwater contamination". Because it has been shown that septic systems can lead to "effluent in water supply resulting in degradation of water quality" (Section 3.19.1.4), implementing a sewer system would lessen the risk of contaminating nearby well water quality. All pipelines will be subject to inspection and maintenance as outlined in Section 2.8 of the Draft PEIR. Specifically, per Section 2.8 "The Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems (Sanitary Sewer Systems General Order, or SSSGO) was adopted by the SWRCB in May 2006. The purpose of the SSSGO was to provide a consistent statewide approach for reducing sanitary sewer overflows (including leakages). Per the SSSGO, and subject to its terms, the Town will need to develop a sewer system management plan. The sewer system management plan will include policies, procedures and activities covering the planning, management, operation and maintenance of the collection system. As part of this sewer system management plan, the Town must also develop and implement an overflow emergency response plan to identify measures to protect public health and the environment." Additionally, the Proposed Project would not impact the availability of water in nearby wells. Section 3.10.4.2 of the Draft PEIR states that construction of the Proposed Project "would not cause a new deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the groundwater table" and that "no impact would occur on groundwater supply and recharge during operations and maintenance." Also see responses to Ripley's comment #L10-7.

Rick Hoddinott 3 Was the old railroad (Old Sacramento Northern) right of way considered for the pipe alignment in lieu of Entler Avenue? The specific route you propose would not reduce any environmental impacts of the chosen Entler Avenue Alternative, and therefore, was not analyzed in the Draft PEIR. As stated in Section 5.1.1 of the Draft PEIR, "CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6(a) states that 'an EIR shall describe a range of reasonable alternatives to the project, or to the location of the project, which would feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the project but would avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project, and evaluate the comparative merits of the alternatives. An EIR need not consider every conceivable alternative to a project.'" Rick Hoddinott 4
During construction, how will the project address temporary traffic control along Entler Avenue, considering CHP uses the roadway as direct access.

The Proposed Project includes implementation of mitigation measure MM-HAZ-6: Traffic Management Plan to reduce potential traffic impacts during construction. The traffic management plan will be enforced by the Town and/or contracted construction manager hired by the Town for the project and will include requirements such as: Schedule truck trips outside of the peak traffic hours, Store all equipment and materials in designated staging areas, Install traffic control devices where traffic conditions warrant, Coordinate all construction activities with the emergency service providers in the area, and Post notices and/or appropriate signage to notify the public of upcoming construction activities. Refer to Section 3.9.4.6 of the Draft PEIR for a detailed description of MM-HAZ-6: Traffic Management Plan.

As discussed in 3.9.4.6, "per the SSSGO, and subject to its terms, the Town will need to develop a sewer system management plan. The sewer system management plan will include policies, procedures and activities covering the planning, management, operation and maintenance of the collection system. As part of this sewer system management plan, the Town must also develop and implement an overflow emergency response plan to identify measures to protect public health and the environment".

I am so happy to see this project going forward. As a 36 year resident of Paradise I am well aware of all the projects that have fallen thru due to lack of sewers or septic capacity. I look forward to seeing new businesses in Paradise that were made possible because of the sewer project. The entire town population will certainly benefit, even if they are not directly connected.

Could the pipeline go west on the unimproved portion of Edgar Ave instead of Chico Ave. Then north to Taffee. This would save us from having to destroy a paved road (Chico Ave). I understand those are public right of ways.

Thank you for your question. City ownership of the unimproved portion of Edgar Avenue could not be confirmed. Additionally, the specific route you propose would not reduce any environmental impacts of the chosen Entler Avenue Alternative, and therefore, was not analyzed in the Draft PEIR. As stated in Section

Chico Velo supports the Town of Paradise and the Sewer
Project and encourages the project or project sponsor to include the paving of a multi-use path for bicycles and pedestrians on top of the proposed project.

Currently, Skyway is not a safe route for bicyclists or pedestrians traveling to or from Paradise. This project provides a unique opportunity to solve dual challenges of meeting the need for wastewater infrastructure and also providing a safer, more direct route between Chico and
Paradise for bicyclists and pedestrians. If the new multi-use path followed the sewer line all the way to Southgate Lane on the East side of Hwy 99, it would connect users to the existing Midway bike path on the West side of 99.

Additionally, a multi-use path could enable emergency
equipment to drive up the path and allow Skyway to be fully utilized as an emergency evacuation route.

Thank you for the consideration- please let us know if you have questions or if Chico Velo can provide additional
support.

Thank you for your comment. The Proposed Project includes a sewer pipeline and wastewater collection system. The design and construction of pedestrian or bicycle facilities are outside of the scope of the Proposed Project. Skyway falls under County jurisdiction, and is outside of the jurisdiction of the Town. Your recommendations have been noted and will be referred to the County as a potential feature for coordination with future project opportunities.

I own a 20 acre walnut orchard at 3662 Hegan Ln. Chico
cross from Fimple/Hegan intersection. PG&E installed a new gas line on the north side of Hegan (2-3 ft.) north of edge of pavement. Where is the sewer line going to be placed in my area, under Hegan Lane? north side of Hegan Lane or south side of Hgean Lane? If on the same area as PG&E gas line, what is the minimum distance from gas line? What is the diameter of sewer line? My concern is if this trenching will kill the walnut trees/root system? or if trees will have to be removed for the trenching?
Thank you for your questions. We appreciate your concerns. The Proposed Project would not remove any trees during trenching. As stated in Section 2.5.2.1 of the Draft PEIR, the ridge gravity section (from connection with Core Collection Service to transition chamber located just before pipeline reaches Chico) will consist of two separate gravity sewer pipes: one 8 inches in diameter to handle low flows, and one 10 inches in diameter that would accommodate the build out flows. The pipeline would be placed under Hegan Lane, within the public right-of-way. The Town will be following all requirements of the PG&E Greenbook (https://www.pge.com/en_US/large-business/services/building-and-renovation/greenbook-manualonline/greenbook-manual-online.page) 1632

Thanks for your inquiry. I understand your question is about the discharge/effluent from the Chico Water Pollution control plant. Although the Town of Paradise proposed to connect to the WPCP in the future, we do not yet have a connection (which is being analyzed in the current Draft PEIR). I would suggest you contact the City of Chico Water Pollution Control Plant directly to inquire about the effluent.

Brian Anderson Aug 22, 2022 W16 1 What agency will have jurisdiction to provide collection services within the Town of Paradise?
Thank you for your comments on the Paradise Sewer Project. The Town of Paradise will own and operate the sewer system. We are currently scheduled to start Design and Right of Way in the near future, as funding becomes available, and the details of implementing the system will be identified at that time. Some specific details, such as the operator name license information, are not yet identified. Information on the current permit structure for the Town can be found in Section 3.10.1.6 of the Draft PEIR: "As required by Phase II of the NPDES, Butte County operates under a Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) stormwater permit, which authorizes the discharge of stormwater to surface water in the state from small municipal separate storm sewer systems. The Town’s MS4 Permit is currently operating under an approved waiver secured in 2021 due to the reduced population associated with the 2018 Camp Fire and other factors. See Section 2.4.2 for information on the Chico WPCP and associated NPDES permit." Brian Anderson 2 Who holds the license to operate wastewater services within Paradise jurisdiction?

What methods of odor control will be employed at each
pump station, wet well and other areas where wastewater may come in contact with atmosphere? Odor mitigation is of critical importance to our community.

The Proposed Project includes the use of odor control canisters, as stated in Section 2.8 of the Draft PEIR.

Section 3.3.4.4 explains "Routine operations and maintenance activities will include periodic inspection of the odor control cannisters, which will be provided at the Export Pipeline System’s flow control and metering structure." Section 2.8 further elaborates: "Physical on-site inspection and maintenance of the air release valves and odor control canisters would be done according to the maintenance protocols that accompany the devices, and would occur every 6 months to ensure optimal performance of these devices. Air release valves would be inspected to ensure they are operating properly. The odor control canisters would be replaced as needed when the carbon media becomes saturated and loses the ability to absorb odors." Additionally, see Section 3.3.4.4: "Once complete, the Proposed Project would provide an overall odor benefit, because it will replace existing septic tanks within the sewer service area that emit unpleasant odors." Brian Anderson 5 24 hour response to spills and overflows is critical.

As stated in Section 2.8 of the Draft PEIR, the Town will "develop and implement an overflow emergency response plan… Pursuant to [the Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems], the Town will be required to report sanitary system overflows... using an electronic reporting system. Review and approval by the City and County of the Town’s proposed sewer system management plan would be required prior to start of operations." See Section 2.8 of the Draft PEIR for a list of minimum requirements of the Town's sewer overflow response plan.

2 Information is needed regarding the projected increase in size of the current Chico Wastewater Treatment Plant in order to accommodate this increase in treatment. Keeping in mind Chico's current growth-rate and several other LARGE development projects that will also increase demand on this facility - Valley's Edge and Barber Yard, this facility will need to expand, but to what extent?
As stated in Section 3.18.4.1 of the Draft PEIR: "The Regionalization Planning Report for the Paradise Sewer Project determined that the Chico WPCP has adequate capacity to serve the Proposed Project’s projected demand and commitments, in addition to serving the City’s service area within its jurisdictional boundaries (Carollo Engineers 2022)… Based on these factors, the Proposed Project would not stress the capacity of the current system. The Proposed Project would not require the construction or relocation of wastewater facilities, nor would it require expansion of the existing Chico WPCP facility." This section goes on to outline in further detail: "The Chico WPCP… has an existing capacity of 12 mgd with future expandability of up to 15 mgd. The annual average flow coming into the Chico WPCP currently is 6.3 mgd. The Proposed Project would add an additional 0.109 mgd of wastewater to the Chico WPCP influent at the time of initial connection (estimated for 2026) and a maximum of 0.464 mgd at full build-out (estimated for 2057) and would not increase or decrease the availability of sewer service within the City or County. " Further, as discussed in Section 2.4, "due to estimated future wastewater flow increases to the Chico WPCP based on the City’s current and future population, including the estimated Town sewer discharge in 2026, the City would need to implement a project at the WPCP, consisting of the addition of a fourth secondary clarifier. This clarifier would be installed within the footprint of the existing plant, adjacent to three existing secondary clarifiers.

The fourth clarifier is required whether Paradise connects to the Chico WPCP or not. Considering the Town’s maximum of 0.464 mgd flow anticipated to connect to the City’s WPCP in 2026, the fourth clarifier would be needed in 2028. Without the Town’s additional flow, the fourth clarifier is needed in 2029. Finally, Chico City Code Section 15.40.285, Regulation of Waste Received from Other Jurisdictions , requires that any project with another municipality which would utilize the Chico sanitary sewer system requires an intermunicipal agreement (IMA) and sets out the requirements for such agreement. 3 Information and analysis are needed to fully understand the impacts of removing the equivalent of 1/8th of Big Chico Creek's average annual flow out of the current hydrological cycle based on projected peak flow at sewer build out. The long-term impacts of effectively pumping that much water out of the hydrological cycle helping feed local aquifers and creeks (chiefly, Butte Creek, the last viable salmon run off the Delta river system) is unconscionable. Paradise, preCamp Fire, was renowned for its forest, largely of Ponderosa pine, growing at lower altitudes than commonly
encountered. The additional ground water these trees
received from leach lines, not to mention additional
nutrients, helped support this rich forest. Taking that life support away will certainly forever change the forest of Paradise's future canopy. Property owners wishing to
replicate that forest will need to pump even more ground water to use in their landscapes further exacerbating the drying of downstream aquifers.

The Proposed Project does not include any pumping of groundwater. We understand you are referring to the removal of leach fields and the presumed loss of water to the local system. The Paradise Irrigation District (PID) supplies water to the Town of Paradise, as demonstrated in Section 3.5.1 of the Draft PEIR. From 2022 PID UWMP: "PID overlies an area with fractured rock aquifers as the only potential groundwater supply.

These types of aquifers are not expected to provide a significant source of water". At the time of plan preparation, PID is not within a designated basin and not subject to compliance with the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA). Big Chico Creek average annual flow is 300 cfs (https://sacriver.org/explore-watersheds/eastside-subregion/big-chico-creekwatershed/#:~:text=Records%20show%20that%20the%20average,during%20winter%20storm%20runoff%20 events.), or 139.9 mgd (https://www.convertunits.com/from/cfs/to/million+gallon/day+[US]). At the Project's proposed full buildout, which may not occur until 2057, the projected flow would be 0.464 mgd, which is 0.3% of the Big Chico Creek average annual flow, not 1/8th. 1635

4 The proposed path crosses three surface flow creeks (Butte, Comanche and Little Chico) that countless wildlife (and residents) relies on for sustenance and recreation. While the current engineered solution for these crossings may provide sufficient cover, over time, erosion will continue to drop current creek elevations eventually exposing these lines making them vulnerable to damage and leakage.

The proposed pipeline path does not cross surface creeks; it goes underneath them at a minimum depth of 20 feet below the creek bed surface (as stated in Section 2.5.2.2 of the Draft PEIR, and shown in Figure 2-14).

Further, it was determined that "Operation and maintenance activities… would not include ground disturbing activities that could expose or disturb soil. Therefore, operation and maintenance of the Proposed Project would not result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil" (Section 3.7.4.2). The Town's sewer system management plan, outlined in Section 2.8, will contain a sewer overflow response plan to respond to damage or leakage of the pipeline system, including the following minimum requirements: "Proper notification procedures so that the primary responders and the regulatory agencies are informed of all overflows in a timely manner;... Procedures to ensure that appropriate staff and contractor personnel are aware of and follow the Town's sewer overflow response plan and are appropriately trained to do so;... A program to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken to contain untreated wastewater and prevent discharge of untreated wastewater to waters of the US and minimize or correct any adverse impact on the environment; The Town Public Works Department would have on-hand the equipment and spare parts necessary to rapidly implement a repair."
5 The system will require frequent clean out and regular servicing in order to remain functional. To fail to do so could result in calamitous disaster and contamination of numerous entities (rivers, creeks, farmland, etc.). Encumbering future municipal operations with this laborious task over such a long pipeline will certainly result in failure and/or increased costs to the consumer. There is simply no way to guarantee that funding for this team of pipeline workers and
equipment will be sustainable.

Section 2.8 of the Draft PEIR includes inspection, monitoring, and maintenance procedures that will be included in the Town's sewer system management plan, which is required to comply with the Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems. Procedures that relate to clean out and regular servicing include, but are not limited to, the following: "Inspections of the Core Collection System and the Export Pipeline System would occur one to two times per year, depending on deposition observed within the system… As needed, based upon the results of the camera inspections, the pipelines would be flushed to push deposited material farther down the pipelines to the Chico WPCP… Physical inspection and maintenance of instrumentation would occur monthly according to the maintenance protocols that accompany the instruments." Funding for operations is outside the scope of this PEIR. As commenter provides an opinion on future funding availability with no reference, the Town can not respond to the final sentence.
6 Paradise's septic waste system served to provide a governor to check unbridled growth. Removing that check, will
certainly further increase Paradise's growth potential
resulting in an escalating list of long-term impacts for future Butte County residents. The increase growth potential will make future fire suppression impossible, trigger roadway expansion, increase sprawl and further tax our limited
natural resources, most acutely, our water resources.

We appreciate all viewpoints and opinions expressed by our community; however, since this comment consists of strictly opinion on future growth potential with no supporting evidence, the Town has no response to the commenter's thoughts. However, growth inducing impacts in the Town have been analyzed and are outlined in Section 4.4, and it is concluded that "Any inducement of the population growth that might occur as a result of the Proposed Project in the shorter term would be a return and/or regrowth and repopulation toward pre-fire levels. Any growth beyond pre-fire levels that could occur in the longer term would be consistent with the Town of Paradise 2022-2030 Housing Element Update (Town of Paradise 2022a). This growth would be limited by (1) the current boundaries of the Town, (2) the capacity of the Proposed Project infrastructure, and (3) the Chico WPCP operational (disposal permit allowance) and existing plant infrastructure (facilities limitations) capacity." Further, as noted in multiple locations in the Draft PEIR, this CEQA effort is limited to within the Paradise town boundaries and does not allow for sewer connections outside of the Town.
7 This country has a rich history of failed environmental engineered solutions to current challenges. Measures like this start out seemingly a "good idea at the time" only to create unforeseen impacts for future generations to solve.

8 I encourage you to reconsider grandfathering in previous property-owner's septic systems to allow our neighbors who have suffered so much to return to their homes and preserve the future of Paradise by ensuring large developers a
toehold to urbanize our beloved mountain communities.

The scope of the Proposed Project is intended to cover the Core Collection System, and at a programmatic level, cover the potential for future connections at the request of property owners outside of the Core Collection, yet within the Town limits, which is considered in the Extended Collection System assessment.

This includes an opportunity for other Town property owners to apply to connect to the sewer system in the future, following buildout of the export system. Further, Section 1.1.2 of the Draft PEIR states: "The overall purpose of the Proposed Project is not to serve the entire Town; areas will continue to exist that are served by the existing Onsite Wastewater Management Zone. Instead, the Extended Collection System would provide an opportunity for other property owners within Town limits to connect." Ryan Duncanwood Aug 22, 2022 W18 1 ITS GOOD Thank you for your input.

I lived behind the Optimo Lodge from o/a 1948 until I went into the Service, 1960. Of course, along the way of those years, my dad went to Chico, down Neal Road, for the
Crocker Bank and I might have accompanied him and used a restroom after he made the deposit.

By this time, local dogs wiped out our chickens and after the Crocker Bank, we went to a Chico outfit that gave us the number of cleaned chickens we needed.

The following week our destination was some place in
Oroville for the steaks we needed for the next week, a long trip down Clark Road was used.

So when talk of sewers for Paradise comes up, I remember the leech fields where I got my fishing worms...

I would like to request that we do not damage our new
Skyway Roads that have just been installed/updated. Thank You.

Repaving of roadways would occur consistent with Town policy, such that Town paved areas that are impacted by the Proposed Project will be repaved in full lane widths, to avoid trench patchwork. For those roadways not within the Town, Butte County or the City of Chico would have jurisdiction over any repaving requirements for those sections of road.

Has the town looked into putting turbines inside the 18 mile pipeline to generate electricity? I believe this has been done in other cities and might give Paradise a chance to control our own energy independence.

Thank you for your input. This is not currently part of the proposed project, as directed by Town Council.

Michael Schwartz Aug 22, 2022 W22 1 Not the best idea they have. For too many reasons. I vote no. Thank you for your input. We appreciate all viewpoints and opinions expressed by our community.

Gary Wolt Aug 22, 2022 W23 1 What policy is in place to control cost increases in the future?
Thank you for your comments and questions. The City of Chico will be the wastewater operator for the Chico Water Pollution Control Plant, and the treatment portion of the fees will be administred by the City. The Intermunicipal Agreement (IMA) between the Town of Paradise and the City of Chico addresses noticing for costs, which are compliant with all public noticing requirements for future rate increases. The Principles of Agreement, which will inform the IMA are available on the project website at paradisesewerproject.com. 2 Will the town of Paradise be subsidizing Chico's wastewater system, with no control on whatever increase they want or need. The ability to justify any price increase seems to be a normal phenomena.

The Town of Paradise and the City of Chico performed an assessment of the value of the existing City of Chico Water Pollution Control Plant, which are included in the Technical Memorandum and reports located on Paradisesewer.com. The connection fee identified pays for the value of the plant at the time of connection, and accommodates the Sewer Service. See response to Comment #W23-1 for more information. 1637

3 Are they incorporating any valving in the design for
emergency use in the event that the pipeline or Chico's waste water facility experiences a catastrophic failure? Yes, appropriate valving is being provided. As part of the discussion under Flow Control and Metering Structure in Section 2.5.2, in description of transition chamber, it is stated: "The first below-ground chamber would be dry (the wastewater would remain within the pipe that is exposed within the chamber) and would contain a magnetic flow meter and a pressure gauge on the pipeline, with the chamber being the access point to this flow meter. The second chamber would be wet, with the wastewater discharging into the chamber via a modulating plug valve. A modulating plug valve would keep the Transition Chamber and Gravity Force Main Sections full, to maintain the hydraulic function of the Gravity Force Main Section. 4 Would valving be in place to allow Paradise to construct there own wastewater facility, or have a load out facility at a future point in time?
No, there is no valving being provided for a future Paradise wastewater facility, nor is any accommodation being provided for a load out facility, as these fall outside the scope of the proposed Project..

I would like to mention my support for the addition of a multi use path along the Skyway during construction of the sewer line. This path would be of historic interest as it would continue the "line" used by trains in the past as well as provide a safer route for non motorized travel to and from Paradise via the Skyway. The path would also be a
viable option as an alternative route for emergency vehicles or as an additional route of evacuation, should the need arise. Thank you in advance.

It would be an ideal time to put in a wide paved bike trail up to Paradise on the skyway corridor. You could also put in fiber optical cable for internet use along the same right of way with the sewer project. Take advantage of multiple uses for the construction project on the sewer system. Also, the paved bike path provides superior access to the fiber optical cable and sewer lines when repairs or access is needed.

Perhaps power could also be delivered from the Chico area to Paradise in an underground line rather than on poles! Planning makes for a better future!

Seems the Draft PEIR a done deal? So confusing. We need a more comprehensive review other than a commission
and/or Board. A citywide meet up for face to face speaking is necessary. And are there any ideas on building UP in
downtown. Apartment buildings may be most suitable for
many residents. What about beautification projects with help of citizens? So many ideas and no leadership. Time is a wasting and we should have already planted thousands of trees.

Thank you for your input. The PEIR provides the environmental review for the proposed Paradise Sewer Project. Density (multi-family housing or vertical construction) becomes more feasible with a sewer system, and is one of the benefits of the sewer project. Section 1.3.1 of the Draft PEIR describes the public notices, scoping meetings, and public review meetings that have taken place so far: "Due to restrictions under State of California Executive Order N-33-20, scoping for the Proposed Project occurred under Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) restrictions; therefore, electronic postings, virtual meetings and physical mailings were the appropriate venues for information distribution… The Town hosted two virtual public scoping meetings to seek public and stakeholder input on the environmental scope of the Proposed Project. The first virtual public meeting took place on May 13, 2021, and included 29 public attendees. The second virtual public meeting took place on May 25, 2021, and included 14 public attendees. Public meeting attendees were encouraged to ask questions and provide input on the Proposed Project and process." Beautification projects and other potential Town projects are not included in the scope of this sewer system assessment, but all comments are being reviewed by the Town for future opportunities.

I live along the Little Chico Creek bike path and have cycled to Paradise up the Skyway at least once a month over the last 7 yrs.

It was very disappointing not to see a dedicated two-way bike path installed when PG&E put their electrical
infrastructure underground. Then it was extremely
disappointing when a dedicated bike path was not installed when the Skyway was recently paved.

Let's not strike out by not creating a dedicated bike path when the sever line is extended from Paradise to Chico.

First, the responsibility of Government is the safety and protection of its citizens; our basic rights of life, liberty and property. When you meet those basic rights; then, and only then, do you look for other benefits to the community that you govern.

So, the question is about the Town Govt. meeting the basic needs of the folks in Town. The basic services for public safety are police, fire, and emergency medical services. Then ask yourself if you feel safe with the current facilities and staffing. (Remember, the third fire station was never built, the hospital is gone, and our cops are stretched thin). And there is no plan for change in these vital areas. Having a sewer does not correct or improve the absence of the above.

We are no safer by having a sewer!
Thank you for your input. This comment has been considered, and is outside the scope of the PEIR. 2 Second, there is no good justification to change from a septic system to a sewer system. Septic systems have worked extremely well for many rural communities for many many years. In Paradise, we have had very few failed or questionable septic systems; but let me just highlight a few examples of addressing a 'questionable' system. Cozy Diner: The Town, (based on limited space concerns) wanted to close the restaurant; there was no room to extend the leach field and the volume produced at the diner was exceeding the capacity of the existing septic system.

Cozy management found a solution, agreed to spend a lot of money, and made the necessary improvements. Next, the Holiday Market leach field (it is under the asphalt parking lot) (which is not the best location for a leach field); Holiday was willing to spend a lot of money to dig up the old system and replace it with deeper drainage. It works just fine. Next, the MacDonalds Restaurant on Clark Rd. Here was another "questionable" leach field, and there was not enough property to expand it. MacDonalds Corp.
increased the parking lot size to accommodate additional leach field space (at a substantial cost). And lastly, the new Safeway Store on Skyway, they wanted to add a gas station and restaurant on the property, but there wasn't enough space for an extended leach field. So, Safeway Corp. bought additional acreage to be able to accommodate a larger leach field. Each of these examples show that whatever the concern is from the Town about a septic system, there was a remedy, if the property owner was willing to spend the dollars and improve the system. Have you ever heard of someone having an 'ailment' of any kind, because the septic system failed? Septic systems are not unsafe or unhealthy.

There are other CA communities with similar concerns that have never been forced by the local Govt. to re-do their septic systems.

We appreciate all viewpoints and opinions expressed by our community. Section 2.3.1 Project Need includes information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), including: "Research on septic system failure is limited, but some research indicates that septic systems should be studied more carefully. “In 2013, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) looked at nearly four decades of data on disease outbreaks linked to drinking untreated groundwater. The data was drawn from 248 outbreaks that were reported to the CDC between 1971 and 2008. Of the 172 cases in which a source of contamination was determined, 67 percent were linked to a septic tank or an improperly designed well” (Circle of Blue 2015)." Further, Section 2.3.2 Project Objectives and Goals provides references and information from the State Water Resources Control Board and engineering findings that demonstrate the value of changing to a contained sewer system. In addition, examples noted in your comment focus on very large corporate entities that have surplus resources; however, small businesses that would also support diverse economic growth in the Town may not have the capital to fund such property expansions that, as you note, can be quite substantial in cost. Therefore, small businesses may not be able to open new retail stores or restaurants, which can then limit opportunities for regrowth of the downtown retail area. 1641

3 Looking at the benefits to having a sewer system, is not based on what problems you get rid of (see above); but
consider the possible benefits to collection sewerage,
treating it, and using the effluent. Many folks thought that if the Town got some benefit from having a sewer system,
then maybe it was a good idea. There are samples all over CA where treated wastewater is used for irrigation
(especially on large grass areas - schools, playgrounds, golf courses, cemetery districts, etc.) Anywhere that reclaimed water can be used reduces the amount of potable water
used. Some communities have plumbed all the fire hydrants with treated wastewater. But that is not the plan for
Paradise (there was an original plan to have local treatment), but the current proposal is to run a pipe (nearly 20 miles) from Paradise to Chico. The wastewater from Paradise
would end up at the Chico treatment plant. The discharge of treated wastewater goes into the Sacramento River; ergo, neither Paradise nor Chico get a benefit from our
wastewater.

We appreciate all viewpoints and opinions expressed by our community. This is a statement of opinion and the subject matter is responded to in depth in the commenter's remaining responses and in responses to Mr.

Ripley below.
4 And, there are costs that go along with having a sewer system: a cost to get hooked up (including, the digging up the street), a cost to discharge, a permit fee (annually or monthly), and, is that cost then passed on to consumers? The Town is seeking grant funding for the design, right of way and construction phases of the project. The sewer pipe and lateral to the property line will be covered by the project costs. When the septic system switches over to sewer, the cost to connect the commercial facility to the sewer system will be borne by the parcel owner. The parcel owner will also be responsible for monthly sewer service fees once connected to the sewer. However, costs are not detailed in the PEIR, as they will be determined by the Town once the PEIR is approved and funding is identified.
5 Would all the commercial facilities with new sewers raise thier prices to cover the costs of using a sewer?

When the septic system switches over to sewer, the cost to connect the commercial facility to the sewer system will be borne by the parcel owner. Commercial facilities would determine pricing for their merchandise/services. 6 Would Paradise folks go to Magalia (with no sewer) and shop to avoid the price increases in Paradise?
We appreciate your thoughts and opinions, but can not forecast customer behavior, nor what commercial owners will charge for services.

I just finished paying off a $22,000.00 hookup bill in another address. We were not in the zone to be on the first to hook up from septic, to sewer, so were required to wait. We were not able to hook up, but years later we were required to and the price hugely increased. We were told the cost would be even more if we didnt do it "now". I now live in a zone that is not part of the first hook ups. Does that mean another huge financial cost to me, in the future?
The Town is seeking grant funding for the design, right of way and construction phases of the project. The sewer pipe and lateral to the property line will be covered by the project costs. When the septic system switches over to sewer, the cost to connect the commercial facility to the sewer system will be borne by the parcel owner. The parcel owner will also be responsible for monthly sewer service fees once connected to the sewer. Costs for connections within the Core Collection System area or at the Expanded Collection System area are not evaluated in the PEIR, as they will be determined by the Town once the PEIR is approved and funding is identified.

The proposal to hook Paradises new sewer system to an expanded Chico sewer water treatment system at the Sacramento River sounds good at first. It saves money and utilizes efficiently excess capacity of said water treatment facility. It also simplifies Paradise’s process into a pipeline construction project.

However, as we all have noted from the years of the long ongoing drought, the foothills need every drop of water they can get and /or save or reuse. This plan will export millions of gallons of water from Paradise, and therefore is not good. Instead the wastewater should be treated and returned as close as possible and feasible to the water area it comes from.

The single best feature of the existing septic tank/reach line system has been retention of treated wastewater in the
ecosystem.

A similar goal can be accomplished by constructing a primary sewage treatment plant in Paradise followed by a final treatment in a constructed wetland polishing system. This will produce many local benefits.

After the wetland the water can flow to another reservoir location or allowed to be absorbed into the ground or flow through a stream, other kind of recharge. The benefits of retaining water cannot be overestimated. Streams with added wastewatereffluent can improve water quality and support water re-use, while creating habitat and providing urban amenities The Cost–benefit analyses of stream-flow augmentation projects many times fail to account for the full value of ecosystem services provided, including renewed habitats and enhanced urban amenities. (References provided in original attached letter) Thank you for your input. We appreciate all viewpoints and opinions expressed by our community. As required by CEQA (CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6), the City has reviewed alternatives and examined thoe which meet the goals of the project and reduce the potential for environmental impacts. One of the goals of the Proposed Project (Section 2.3.2) is to address the public health threat by removing individual septic systems. Other goals discussed in the same section noted above, was to allow return of population, and to provide for affordable housing. The local treatment option has been reviewed a number of times (Section

2.2) and each time it has been determined that the regional connection ws recommended as the best longterm solution for the Town (Section 2.2.1). Therefore, in 2020, the Regional Board stated that "it is the Board's strong recommendation for the Town to conserve limited resources and focus its feasibility analysis on the regionalization option" (RWQCB 2020, as referenced in Section 2.2.2). Further, Chico City Code Section

15.40.285, Regulation of Waste Received from Other Jurisdictions , requires that any project with another municipality which would utilize the Chico sanitary sewer system requires an intermunicipal agreement (IMA) and sets out the requirements for such agreement.

1. Permitting Authority: The PEIR acknowledges that the details of the required permitting and agreements that will be needed for the construction and ongoing operations of the Export Pipeline System within the County right-of-way have yet to be determined. Table ES-1 summarizes the
anticipated required project permits and approvals for
agencies and jurisdictions (p. xxiv). However, the table does not specify permitting authority for Butte County.

The need for obtaining encroachment permits for work
within the County rights-of-way is discussed several times in the PEIR, including Section 1.5 Issues to be Resolved (p.10).

Butte County is a Responsible Agency based on its
discretionary approval power over certain aspects of the project including permitting authority which should be
specifically recognized in Table ES-1.

As discussed in the Draft PEIR in Sections ES1 and 1.1, which indicate "Butte County… [is] considered [a] Responsible Agenc[y] under CEQA based on their discretionary approval over aspects of the Proposed Project and their utilization of this PEIR for their CEQA compliance. Specifically... The County will rely on this CEQA analysis to make its decision on project elements impacting County-owned and maintained rights of way".

More specific language (see new bolded text below) clarifying Butte County's permitting authority has been added to the "Permit, Approval, or Clearance" column in Table ES-1 and Table 1-1 in the Final PEIR, to read:

Approval for installation and operations and maintenance of the export pipeline and any appurtenant facilities located within County rights of way; specifically for encroachment permits within County rights of way.
2 2. Impact HAZ-6 Impact and Analysis: Section 3.9 Hazards and Hazardous Materials does not appear to provide
adequate discussion and analysis on how the proposed
mitigation measures will reduce Impacts HAZ-6 and HAZ-7 to a less than significant level.

Impact HAZ-6: Impair implementation of or physically
intefere with an adopted emergency response plan or
emergency evacuation plan
Impact HAZ-7: Expose people or structures, either directly or indirectly, to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving wildland fires
The Department requests that additional discussion and
analysis should be provided in the PEIR to demonstrate how the proposed Mitigation Measures, specifically MM-HAZ-3, MM-HAZ-4, and MM-HAZ-5, will reduce the identified
significant impacts to a less than significant level. For example, further discussion providing information on the importance of a Rapid Demobilization Plan and how rapid demobilization will be critical during an emergency would support the proposed mitigation measures.

In response to the comment, the following text has been added or updated to Section 3.9.4.6, Mitigation.

Per Section 3.9.2.3, any contractor on the project, whether in the Town, City or County, will be required to implement procedures defined in the Butte County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update, as adopted and annexed by the Town of Paradise. As stated in Section 3.9.2.3, The Butte County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update (Butte County 2019b) includes an assessment of the county’s risk and vulnerability related to natural and other identified hazards and a comprehensive mitigation strategy which includes actions and projects designed to mitigate or reduce the impacts of those hazards and to increase community resiliency.

The Proposed Project will be held to the strategies in the Butte County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update. In addition, the same section also refers to the Butte County General Plan 2030 (Butte County 2012), noting that the Town would be held accountable to multiple goals and associated policies related to hazards and hazardous material, such as: "Policy HS-P15.3: Emergency access routes shall be kept free of traffic impediments." Finally, Section 3.9.2.3 also states that the Town will be held to their own policies presented in drafts of the "Town of Paradise General Plan, Safety Element (2022) and Hazardous Waste Management Element (2022)". Policies within these elements include: Policy SP-1: New and unmitigated land use development shall not cause the police and fire protection services emergency response times to fall below the service levels established by this plan, and Policy SP-2: Through the development review process, adequate roads shall be required to be constructed and/or improved for emergency vehicle access, particularly in high wildland fire hazard areas. Proposed Project mitigation measures, discussed below support implementation of the County and Town policies by ensuring evacuation routes would not be blocked during an emergency, that emergency response services have access to major routes, which is critical during an emergency, and that there is a plan for rapid demobilization in a situation requiring evacuation. Further, for each of the three noted mitigation measures, the following has been added to restate existing requirements prior to describing mitigation measure: The Proposed Project will be held accountable to the Butte County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update and policies included in the Butte County General Plan and the Town’s draft Safety Element (2022) and Hazardous Waste Management Element (2022).

The City understands that the Paradise Sewer Project (Project) is a critical component to the Town of Paradise's (Paradise) overall Camp Fire recovery effort and that the design of the project is in an early phase. Given the scope of the Project, the alignment of certain segments of the proposed pipeline, the location of associated equipment located within or adjacent to the City limits and Sphere of Influence, and the pipeline's ultimate connection to the City's Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP), we look forward to coordinating closely with Paradise during the design, construction, and implementation phases of the Project.

Close coordination will be particularly important for numerous reasons, including, but not limited to: 1) Avoiding potential conflicts between the Paradise Sewer Project and the City's proposed infrastructure projects that are located along or adjacent to the Project's proposed alignment (e.g., the P-18 sewer trunkline segments located within the railroad grade in South Chico and within the Entler Avenue and Midway rights-of-way, the intersection improvements at Hegan Lane and Midway, etc.). 2) Ensuring collaboration regarding the design of those project components (e.g., the Transition Chamber located off lower Skyway, the Flow Control and Metering Structure proposed near the WPCP, and all connections to the City's existing and proposed facilities) that are located within or adjacent to the City to avoid and minimize the potential environmental impacts (soil
contamination, water pollution, odors, etc.) that could result from system failures.

Thank you for your comments. The Town also looks forward to closely coordinating with the City during the design, construction, and implementation phases of the Project. The Town agrees that close coordination will avoid and minimize the potential environmental impacts that could result from conflicts during construction or system failures at new infrastructure. Further, as discussed in Section 2.8 Proposed Operations and Maintenance, "The... Sanitary Sewer Systems General Order... (SSSGO) applies to all publicly owned sanitary sewer collection systems in California with more than one mile of sewer pipe... and would be overseen by the RWQCB during permitting the proposed project under the (SSSGO). Since the Town’s collection system will have more than one mile of sewer pipe, and the Town will own and operate the collection system, the Town will comply with the SSSGO. Per the SSSGO, and subject to its terms, the Town will need to develop a sewer system management plan. The sewer system management plan will include policies, procedures and activities covering the planning, management, operation and maintenance of the collection system." It is anticipated that the Town, County and City will be coordinating as this plan is being developed. Further, Chico City Code Section 15.40.285, Regulation of Waste Received from Other Jurisdictions , requires that any project with another municipality which would utilize the Chico sanitary sewer system requires an intermunicipal agreement (IMA) and sets out the requirements for such agreement. 2 The City appreciates Paradise's inclusion of the permitting requirements in the PEI R, including the Sanitary Sewer Systems General Order and associated conditions requiring the preparation of a Sewer System Management Plan and an Overflow Emergency Response Plan that will be both
reviewed and approved by the City of Chico. These
documents will provide the policies, procedures and
activities covering the planning, management, operation, and maintenance of the collection system. In addition, these efforts will result in emergency response planning to identify measures to protect public health and the environment,
particularly as they relate to an inadvertent release of sewage.

The Town agrees with the City's statements, and again, will be coordinating with the City during development of the Sewer System Management Plan. Further, the Town will abide by Chico City Code Section 15.40.285, Regulation of Waste Received from Other Jurisdictions , which requires that any project with another municipality which would utilize the Chico sanitary sewer system requires an intermunicipal agreement (IMA) and sets out the requirements for such agreement.

3 According to the PEIR, wastewater studies prepared for the Town determined the Project export pipeline system design should be based on an estimated average wastewater
conveyance and treatment need for the Paradise sewer
service area to be 0.464 million gallons per day (mgd). Due to the conceptual nature of the inclusion of the entire Extended Collection System outside of the Core Collection System, as identified in Figure ES-1, it is unclear at this time if serving the greater area would have the potential to exceed the maximum design of 0.464 mgd. Any future
expansions should be analyzed and agreed to by the City to prevent any unforeseen wastewater exceedances that could negatively affect pipeline and plant capacities.

The 0.464 million gallon per day estimated discharge from the Town of Paradise to the City of Chico Water Pollution Control Plant is the agreed upon discharge, and an effective capacity limit. The Principles of Agreement developed between the Town of Paradise and City of Chico, which are currently being drafted into an Inter-Municipal Agreement to be adopted by the Town Council and City Council, include the maximum discharge amount and methods in which this amount would be monitored and controlled by both the Town and City. In addition, the Principles of Agreement state “The Town and the City agree to prohibit future connections to the export pipeline in the portion of the pipeline that sits outside of the Town limits or City limit.” (www.paradisesewer.com, 1st Draft Principles of Agreement version 7, 21-March-2022). Finally, the extent of area and associated flow that could be served by the sewer system within the Town (ie., the core collection system area alone, or expanded to include the extended collection system area) would be forecasted in advance to determine when and if the 0.464 million gallon per day allotment could be reached.

At such a time, the Town of Paradise would approach the City of Chico in a similar fashion to determine if a mutual desire existed to accept additional flows from the Town based upon the City’s treatment plant capacity, needed connection payments and other factors – similarly as the original 0.464 million gallon per day agreement is currently being negotiated.
4 The City looks forward to collaborating with the Town of Paradise and its professional sewer design team in the
development of the project and looking for partnership
opportunities that will benefit both communities.

Thank you for your comments.

(handwritten letter - transcribed) Public Information - There needs to be a very accessible public forum of information regarding the Town of Paradise Sewer Project. Very few
people have participated and know of plans to date
regarding this immense project. Blue Flamingo could be a group to widely disseminate information. There are
numerous and very complex issues to deal with as this
project moves forward. Residents should have opportunity for input.

Thank you for your comments and reference to Blue Flamingo. The Town has made information available on multiple platforms, to provide information to the community and as required by CEQA statute: 1) the Town has put up a website to include all information related to the Proposed Project (https://paradisesewer.com); virtual public scoping meetings were held in May 2021. 3) In support of the scoping meetings and corresponding comment period, social media and email blasts went out before and after the virtual meetings, postings were made in newspapers (Paradise Post and Enterprise-Record) and project information regarding the meetings and solicitation of public comments were posted at multiple public locations.

Similarly, public meetings were held in August 2022 during public review of Draft PEIR. Many of the same outlets were used in this draft release outreach, but "live" public meetings, rather than virtual, were held in Paradise and Chico.
2 (handwritten letter - transcribed) Water Retention: We are hearing from individuals a very strong concern regarding grey water and stormwater retention. Both have been a
significant part of Paradise's groundwater for many decades.

The installation of signal lights and reconfiguring the intersection at the top of Clarke Road directed stormwater runoff to be diverted from the triangle of land between Skyway Rd and Clark. Trees on that property died over the course of a couple of years. They were cut off from their supply of water. As streets throughout town are repaired and upgraded, will the storm drains immediately run off the ridge or be directed to catchment basins? What are the
details of all the plans?
Thank you for your input. The Town is considering all comments in the development of detailed design. 1646

Development/Commercial Development: is on hold until a

As included in Section 2.6 Proposed Schedule of the Draft PEIR, construction of the Core Collection System is proposed to be constructed between August 2024 and May 2026. The Export Pipeline System is proposed for construction between August 2024 and July 2026. The Extended Collection System would be constructed caseby-case and could occur 2026 through 2056. In terms of roadways, repaving would occur consistent with Town policy, such that Town paved areas that are impacted by the Proposed Project will be repaved in full lane widths, to avoid trench patchwork. For those roadways not within the Town, the County or Chico would have jurisdiction over any repaving requirements for those sections of road. 4 (handwritten letter - transcribed) Cal Poly: water/design ideas presented by students in Spring of 2019 should be revisited.

Section 2.5.1 of the Draft PEIR provides the preliminary design for the Core Collection System: "The Core Collection System would consist of approximately 157,000 feet of 6- to 8-inch-diameter gravity sewers, 29,000 feet of 2- to 4-inch-diameter force mains, and up to 28 pump stations. The pipelines would be buried approximately 3 to 15 feet below the ground surface, depending on local topography and sewer system design features and constraints." These 28 pump stations would provide the necessary pressure to transition the sewage to the Export Pipeline System. There are no pumps included in design of Export Pipeline System, which depends on gravity flow.
10 (handwritten letter - transcribed) Land installations: Another drought issue the Town of Paradise could and should deal with immediately is lawn development/ installation. Curtail or limit it immediately there is no water, Mount Shasta is bare of snow except for a few glacial remains.

Environmental Impact Report, pg 429 Hydrology and Water Quality HYD-2: is in need of more evaluation. The removal of all waters from households and businesses could have a very long lasting impact. Details of well level is swayle when opened to install solar water pump was about 6" from
ground level during drought year when wells were failing in the Valley.

The Town believes it conducted sufficient analysis in Section 3.10 to meet the requirements of CEQA. All findings were disclosed and discussed in Section 3.10.4. To clarify one point, the project is limited to sewer effluent, not any potable water, which is managed by Paradise Irrigation District; therefore, there would be no removal of "all waters from households and businesses". At the time of plan preparation, Paradise Irrigation District (which services much of the Town) is not within a designated basin and not subject to compliance with the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA). The nearest adjacent basin is the Vina Groundwater Subbasin, of which the Paradise contribution is negligible. Groundwater existing conditions are described in Section 3.10.1.3 Groundwater.

Dana Ripley August 29, 2022 L10 1
The opportunity to provide this public comment on the
Paradise Sewer Project Draft ProgramEnvironmental Impact Report (PEIR) is appreciated. As you are aware, I have been advocating for nearly two years a local water reuse project in Paradise as an alternative to the 18-mile wastewater export identified as the superior project in the draft PEIR. On November 30, 2021 I submitted to your office a white paper entitled Town of Paradise, Butte County CA, Sewer, Water Reuse and Wildfire Defense Integrated Plan (SWRWD Plan).

That white paper is included in this public comment as
Exhibit A. (Exhibit A attached with comment letter following spreadsheet)
Thank you for your input. We appreciate all viewpoints and opinions expressed by our community. The document you label a "white paper" has been referred to here as "Mr. Ripley's Sewer, Water Reuse and Wildfire Defense Integrated Plan (SWRWD Plan)" and was submitted along with proposal to the project team for review. In the document, engineering and other services are offered by you for the project that is advocated for in the SWRWD Plan, which implies a vested business interest in selection of the SWRWD option, which should be recognized. Throughout our responses to comments below, we will address the points brought up in comments that related to the SWRWD Plan. As explained, the DEIR discusses those alternatives which are reasonable and can adequately achieve the basic objectives and goals of the project, while reducing the proposed project's potential for impacts to the physical environment. Comments and information collected in Mr. Ripley's SWRWD option do not show that the chosen alternatives manifestly are unreasonable. Further, the Town's determination to eliminate the local options was discussed and reasons identified are tabled in Section 5.2 of the PEIR; it is not required by CEQA for the Town to re-defend its findings as discussed in the PEIR. Per Laurel Heights, supra, 47 Cal.3d at p.393 as referenced in Save Our Access-San Gabriel Mountains vs Watershed Conservation Authority, supra, 68 Cal.App.5th 8 , CEQA Guidelines define "substantial evidence as enough relevant information and reasonable inferences from this information that a fair argument can be made to support a conclusion, even though other conclusions might also be reached." Further, the Laurel Heights court "cautions that a court may not set aside an agency's approval of an EIR on the ground that an opposite conclusion would have been equally or more reasonable.

CEQA's purpose is to compel government to make decisions with environmental consequences in mind" (Laurel Heights, supra, 47 Cal.3d at p.393 as referenced in Save Our Access-San Gabriel Mountains vs Watershed Conservation Authority, supra, 68 Cal.App.5th 8 ). The Town's proposed project was not found to cause any environmental consequences after applying appropriate mitigation measures (Section 3.20 of the PEIR). Having said that, the Town has decided to respond to Mr. Ripley's comments, to the extent the comments are supported by fact and documented calculations. 2 In light of the broad implications of the export versus local reuse options for Paradise, it may be instructive to consider the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines which includes as an advantage of the “Program” EIR the following: Allow the lead agency to consider broad policy alternatives and program-wide mitigation measures at an early time when the agency has greater flexibility to deal with basic problems or cumulative impacts. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Agreed, the Town has and will continue to adhere to CEQA Guidelines Section 15168 (b)(4). In addition, Section 15126.6 (a) states: "An EIR need not consider every conceivable alternative to a project..." and "an EIR shall describe a range of reasonable alternatives to the project, or to the location of the project, which would feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the project but would avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project..." (15126.6(a)). In findings of Save our Access-San Gabriel Mountains vs Water Conservation Authority 68 Cal.App.5th 8 , in discussion of the number of alternatives evaluated, the court found: "The rule of reason (in deciding which alternatives to include) 'requires the EIR to set forth only those alternatives necessary to permit a reasoned choice' and to 'examine in detail only the ones that the lead agency determines could feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the project.'" (Bay-Delta, supra43 Cal.4that p 1163 was used as reference in court findings). 1648

3 Area of Known Controversy #1: Growth Inducing Impacts:

The draft PEIR, Section 1.4, recognizes that there may exist growth inducing impacts specifically in the City of Chico and rural Butte County outside of Town and City limits. In a November 4, 2020 letter from the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board, Region #5 (R5) addressing the local facility versus regional alternatives for Paradise, the statement is made that the “Pipeline to Chico can be costeffectively sized to accommodate a large range of flows.” In a tabulation of pipe carrying capacities of the 10.5 mile 12” diameter export pipe force main along the valley floor (from Skyway at Butte Creek to the Chico WPCP) utilizing
reasonable flow velocities ranging from 3 feet per second (fps) to 7 fps, the available capacity could potentially be as high as 1.758 million gallons per day (mgd) average daily flow (ADF). This capacity is approximately 3.8 times the

0.464 mgd ADF capacity allocated to Paradise in the intermunicipality agreement between Chico and Paradise considered as part of the draft PEIR. The tabulation indicates that up to approximately 1.3 mgd ADF of wastewater export pipe force main capacity could be available to undeveloped properties in southeast Chico as well as rural Butte County along the pipeline alignment. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

In reference to the first sentence (bolded in comment), the reference to Section 1.4 and extracted text is misrepresented. The Draft PEIR and the Town do NOT "recognize(s) that there may exist growth inducing impacts specifically in the City of Chico and rural Butte County outside of Town and City limits". Section 1.4 Areas of Known Controversy in the Draft PEIR (which is the section referenced in the comment) does state that these potential impacts "have been raised by other agencies, the public, or other stakeholders" and that the issue has been previously communicated to the Town or identified in the PEIR scoping process - there is no statement in which it could be inferred that the Town recognizes this issue may, in fact, be valid and Section 4.4 Growth Inducing Impacts speaks specifically to the Town's rebuttal of the potential for inducement in the City or Butte County, stating: "There would be no precedentsetting action that might trigger expansion of the Town as the proposed sewer system would not change Town boundaries and does not allow for service beyond those boundaries. As such, there would be no resulting development or encroachment to isolated or adjacent areas of open space. Further, the Proposed Project would not trigger unplanned expansion of the existing Chico WPCP. The proposed sewer service is within the current capacity, facility function, and purpose of the Chico WPCP." In addition, the engineering work completed by HDR did not include provision for any such additional connections to the Gravity Force Main. Finally, the Principles of Agreement developed between the Town of Paradise and City of Chico, which are currently being drafted into an InterMunicipal Agreement to be adopted by the Town Council and City Council, states “The Town and the City agree to prohibit future connections to the export pipeline in the portion of the pipeline that sits outside of the Town limits or City limit.” (www.paradisesewer.com, 1st Draft Principles of Agreement version 7, 21-March-2022). In conclusion, as noted multiple times in the Draft PEIR and demonstrated above, the scope of the Draft PEIR and any CEQA clearance that it would provide would be limited to infrastructure to support sewer connections within the Town of Paradise boundaries.

In regard to the export pipeline, the section of the export pipeline referred to in the comment is the Gravity Force Main. Again, the comment appears to relate to a concern about additional connections happening along the export pipeline, between the Town of Paradise and the Chico Water Pollution Control Plant. As stated in Section 2.5.2: , “A single 12-inch diameter pipe is needed for the Gravity Force Main for pipe to flow full, creating a beneficial force main based on the hydraulic behavior of the sewer (eliminating the need for a pump station, which is not a part of this system), so the effluent can reach the Chico WPCP. No pump stations would be required” and “A modulating plug valve would keep the Transition Chamber and Gravity Force Main sections full, to maintain the hydraulic function of the Gravity Force Main Section. The Gravity Force Main was sized based on a differential head criteria, not based on a velocity criteria, such as the 3 to 7 feet per second figures stated in the comment. 1649

4 Area of Known Controversy #2: Reconsideration of Local Treatment Option: The draft PEIR, Section 1.4, recognizes potential reconsideration of local treatment plant construction instead of the proposed connection to the Chico WPCP, which was evaluated in 2017 and 2020.

In both Bennett 2017 and HDR 2020, the local treatment alternatives described did not consider distributing recycled water to all parcels served by the sewer system. Conversely, the SWRWD Plan considers extensive urban reuse serving all collected parcels thereby adding a water supply component to PID’s portfolio enhancing its drought preparedness and supply resiliency. As described in the white paper, the dual distribution included in the SWRWD Plan has multiple benefits including 1) delivery of non-potable recycled water for residential, park, sports, commercial, and buffer area irrigation, 2) seasonal shallow aquifer recharge in winter months, 3) automated community-scale wildfire defense for essential facilities, public/private buildings and evacuation routes, 4) high pressure supplemental water supply for fire suppression, 5) protection of Paradise Irrigation District’s (PID) potable distribution from depressurization in the event of another extreme wildfire event, and 6) beneficial use of nutrients inherent in municipal wastewater. The draft PEIR, Section 5.2.1, Table 5.2- 1 Local Alternatives and Reasons for Elimination from Consideration, lists as Local Alternative #3: Local WWTP with Water Recycling with the Town for Local Reuse and Wildfire Defense. In response to the 12 bullet points asserting infeasibility, included in this public comment is Exhibit 2 providing a rebuttal to each point individually in table format. (Exhibit 2 rebuttals are considered separately beginning with Comment #9 below; all references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Similar to the response in Mr. Ripley's Comment #3, the bolded text in this comment has been misrepresented and it is not true that the Draft PEIR or the Town recognizes this statement as accurate; in fact, the Town rebukes reconsideration of the local option and provides reasoning for the elimination in Section 5.2.1, Table 5.2-1.

Thank you for sharing your document (referred to in the responses as "SWRWD Plan" - see response to L10-1) that provides your personal viewpoint regarding one of multiple local project options that have, in different forms, been considered by the Town. As noted in the comment, the “Local Treatment Option”, which in various forms has been assessed multiple times over the past 10-15 years, was eliminated from consideration and was not carried through the Draft PEIR as an alternative, for those reasons identified in Section 5.2.1, Table 5.2-1. CEQA Guidelines state that an EIR: "must describe a range of reasonable alternatives to the project... which would feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the project but would avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project..." (CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6 (d)(a); italics added). Save Our Access-San Gabriel Mountains vs. Watershed conservation Authority (2021) 68 Cal.App5th 8 at p.18 (Save Our Access) found that "... plaintiff (hadn't) explained how any of the alternatives would 'avoid or lessen one or more of (the project's) significant impacts...”. “As the WCA (Watershed Conservation Authority) board found, no significant impacts were identified that could not be avoided or reduced to a less than significant level."

This same condition applies to the Paradise Proposed Project, which realized no significant impacts during analysis that could not be mitigated to a less-thansignificant level. Mr. Ripley’s letter and all other public comment letters received and responded to in this spreadsheet do not, in fact, present any opposition to specific Draft PEIR significance findings with or without mitigation incorporated, as appropriate. Further, with reference to South of Market Community Action Network vs. City and County of San Francisco (2019) 33 Cal.App.5th pp. 321, 345 (South of Market) findings, Save Our Access' elaborates; courts found that "CEQA 'does not require that an agency consider specific alternatives that are proposed by members of the public or other outside agencies' " (Save Our Access, supra, 68 Cal.App5th 8 at p.17 with reference to South of Market proceedings pp. 321, 345).

Additional discussion on the feasibility and reasoning for elimination of this specific option is included in response to Mr. Ripley's comment #1 above and #9 below.

5 Lost Opportunity for Recycled Water: Assuming the export pipe force main has an ADF capacity of about 1.8 mgd, the potential lost opportunity for urban water reuse in Paradise and southeast Chico could be as much as 2,000 acre-feet per year (afy). On August 11, 2022, Governor Newsom announced California’s Water Supply Strategy, Adapting to a Hotter, Drier Future. Part of the Strategy is to increase urban water recycling in coastal and inland communities to about 0.8 million acre-feet per year (MAF) by 2030 and to about 1.8 MAF by 2040. Urban water reuse in Paradise and southeast Chico would clearly be consistent with the Strategy and likely would be eligible for significant grant funding included in the 2021-2022 $5.2 billion state appropriations for California water systems including water recycling. In its 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP), PID indicated that the community will continue to work to examine the viability of a centralized sewer system and any associated opportunities to develop a recycled water supply as it continues to recover from the Camp Fire and look to the future of rebuilding and redevelopment of Butte County. The 18-mile export plan would foreclose on any opportunity in the foreseeable future to develop a recycled water supply in Paradise. In similar fashion, Cal Water-Chico District indicated in its 2020 UWMP that Cal Water continues to actively investigate recycled water opportunities, such as satellite, or decentralized, recycled water generation at select areas within the Chico area, for use in that area. The 10.5-mile export force main pipeline would likely also foreclose on Cal Water’s ability to a develop recycled water supply in southeast Chico in the foreseeable future. In both Paradise and southeast Chico, the export pipeline would represent a lost opportunity to develop local recycled water resources that might otherwise be available. This would be inconsistent with the Governor’s Water Supply Strategy to maximize alternative urban water supplies, including recycled water for non-potable urban demands, for a more secure and resilient water supply future. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

In order to best understand calculations and comparisons presented in this comment and others, it may be easier to use consistent measures. Therefore, if you convert 0.464 million gallons per day (0.464 MGD) of Paradise effluent (that is, the maximum proposed to be conveyed to the Chico WPCP in the Draft PEIR) to acre-feet per year, you have 520.09138 acre-feet per year of wastewater (www.convertunits.com/from/million+gallon/day+[US]/to/(acre+feet)+per+year). Once you then convert acre-feet per year to MILLION acre-feet per year, which is referenced in the Governor's strategy and other municipal and agency goals, the maximum wastewater to be conveyed for treatment to the Chico WPCP from Paradise is 0.00052 million acre-feet (MAF) per year. (https://citizenmaths.com/flow/520.0913772803632- acre-feet-per-year-to-million-acre--feet-per-year). This amount equates to 0.065% of the 0.8 MAF annual increase goals mentioned in comment that the Governor's strategic plan introduces, which would likely not be considered a significant input in isolation. It is agreed that this .00052 MAF would be conveyed to Chico and, as commenter states, would not be available for Paradise as recycled water. However, Paradise has no authority over how the Chico WPCP treats wastewater, and in the future, recycling of Chico WPCP effluent for secondary use in and around the Chico area could be considered by the WPCP. As stated in the Regional Water Board's letter of November 4, 2020 which is referenced in the Draft PEIR, "The City of Chico already provides recycled water for waterfowl habitat uses, and City staff have stated that expanded recycled water use would be desirable and may be pursued in the future. Revenue generated through regionalization with Paradise could make recycled water projects more feasible for Chico."Therefore, since the Governor's California Water Supply Strategy includes increasing urban water recycling generally "in coastal and inland communities", as you have noted, and given the Regional Water Board's findings noted above, implementation of this project does not represent a "lost opportunity", as the opportunity remains to develop recycled water treatment at the Chico WPCP where there are more available resources, if doing so becomes a viable option for them in the future.

6 Issue to be Resolved: Butte LAFCo service extension approval: The draft PEIR, Section 1.5 indicates that Butte LAFCo’s approval of the 18-mile extension of sewer service by Chico to Paradise is an issue to be resolved. However, the required LAFCo approval may be in conflict with state Government Code as indicated by the Executive Officer’s letter of May 20, 2021 which states: Provisions for extension of service requests are found in Government Code §56133 and in Section 4.5 of the Commission Policies and Procedures. Service extensions outside of an agency's Sphere of Influence may only be approved by LAFCo if there is "an existing or impending threat to the health or safety of the public or the residents of the affected territory. (§56133(c)) . . . . . The City/Town will need to provide documentation/justification of the existing or impending public health and safety threat the extension of services would address. This is a critical prerequisite to the project as it is the only legally permissible justification available [emphasis added] to the LAFCo to approve a service extension request outside of an agency's (Chico) Sphere of Influence. Since an existing or impending threat to the health or safety of the public or the residents does not exist, it appears that Butte LAFCo cannot approve the sewer extension request even if it wanted to. The only path forward on this may in fact be a waiver by the state legislature and Governor similar procedurally to Assembly Bill 36 (Gallagher, 2021). Recognizing that the 18-mile extension request is contrary to the Governor’s Water Supply Strategy because it could potentially foreclose on up to 2,000 afy of urban water recycling, the Governor would likely not support the waiver legislation even if approved by the State assembly and senate. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Govt. Code Section 56133 applies to the request to Butte County LAFCO for Chico to provide sewer services to the Town through the pipeline; the Town is outside the City's boundary and its sphere of influence:
(a) A city or district may provide new or extended services by contract or agreement outside its jurisdicƟonal boundary only if it first requests and receives written approval from the commission of the county in which the affected territory is located. (b) The commission may authorize a city or district to provide new or extended services outside its jurisdicƟonal boundary but within its sphere of influence in anticipation of a later change of organization. (NOTE: Chico City Code Section 15.40.285, Regulation of Waste Received from Other Jurisdictions , requires that any project with another municipality which would utilize the Chico sanitary sewer system requires an intermunicipal agreement (IMA) and sets out the requirements for such agreement. (c) The commission may authorize a city or district to provide new or extended services outside its jurisdicƟonal boundary and outside its sphere of influence to respond to an existing or impending threat to the health or safety of the public or the residents of the affected territory, if both of the following requirements are met: (1) The enƟty applying for approval has provided the commission with documentation of a threat to the health and safety of the public or the affected residents. (2) The commission has noƟfied any alternate service provider, including any water corporaƟon as defined in SecƟon 241 of the Public Utilities Code, that has filed a map and a statement of its service capabilities with the commission.

In Section 2.2, the EIR discusses the existing threat to the health and safety of the public and Town residents from the existing septic systems as follows: "Failed septic systems can release untreated wastewater into groundwater at the ground surface or cause pipe failures in buildings, resulting in environmental degradation and public health risk due to water contamination or exposure to untreated wastewater." Section 2.2 cites multiple studies which assess the public health concerns related to failing septic systems, concluding: "Concurrent to and since the Town’s numerous wastewater management studies, public health […] impacts associated with septic system usage continue to persist." In regards to comment on the Governor's Water Supply Strategy, it is important to note that it is a strategy and policy document, rather than a law. Further, the Water Board currently has water reuse policy and regulations in place (https://www.waterboards.ca.gov/water_issues/programs/recycled_water/), and still issued its 2020 Evaluation of Wastewater Treatment Plant Options letter to Paradise with those requirements in place and full awareness of the reuse issue, as can be seen from the letter's reference to recycled water and Chico (https://paradisesewer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/2020- Central-Valley-Regional-Water-Quality-Control-Board-Alternatives-Analysis.pdf). 1652

7 Scalable to Sewer Entire Town: The export project as
proposed in the draft PEIR limits the Paradise wastewater contribution to the Chico WPCP to 0.464 mgd. This limits sewer service to about 1,500 residential and commercial parcels within the sewer service area (SSA). The SWRWD
Plan, conversely, is scalable to whatever service area
Paradise chooses long term, including service to all 10,600 parcels served by PID pre-fire. This would be consistent with a local Paradise Post press report stating: (Congressman Doug) LaMalfa pointed to the sewer as an essential
infrastructure need for Paradise. “You know, a portion of this is going to help with that longtime need for a sewer system to this town, which unlocks a lot of possibilities for (Paradise),” he said. He also pointed out that as Paradise rebuilds, it can be part of an important part of California’s need to build more housing, pointing out that California is

2.5 million units short of what it needs. For context on the limitations with sewer service only to within the SSA, the draft PEIR states: Prior to the Camp Fire, which almost completely destroyed the town in 2018, Paradise was the largest unsewered community in California. This metric
would likely remain unchanged with the 18-mile export plan serving only the SSA – Paradise would still be the largest unsewered community in California since the SSA includes only about 14% of the permitted parcels within the Town. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).
- As described in Section 5.2.1, Table 5.2-1 regarding the specific reasons for not carrying the local option forward as an alternative in the Draft PEIR, the Town did not find proposed infrastructure corresponding to the local option to be “scalable”. As discussed in the draft PEIR and further elaborated on in the Regional Water Board's analysis included in a letter dated November 4, 2022 and referenced in the Draft PEIR, (https://paradisesewer.com/wpcontent/uploads/2021/04/2020-Central-Valley-Regional-Water-Quality-Control-Board-Alternatives-Analysis.pdf), the options would be to either (1) build small at a lower current cost to accommodate estimated levels of effluent over next 5-10 years and require an upgrade and/or demolish/rebuild of infrastructure at some future cost as the treatment needs increase with population growth in the future, or (2) build facilities to some estimated maximum capacity now at much higher short term costs and only use a small portion of the facilities for the next 10-40 years, depending on realized future population growth. Per the Regional Water Board's findings in their November 4, 2022 letter, the local option would be: "Not easily scalable. (A Paradise) WWTP would be sized for currently-proposed collection system.

Adding additional service area in the future would necessitate expansion of the WWTP and conveyance infrastructure.

Depending on available Rights of Way and treatment/disposal areas, suitable additional areas may not be available.

Further, treatment processes may not be easily scalable without substantial redesign and reconstruction of WWTP elements. Expansion of the WWTP to accommodate larger, future flows would be costly." (https://paradisesewer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/2020-Central-Valley-Regional-Water-Quality-Control-BoardAlternatives-Analysis.pdf) - Depending on the final buildout within the Core Collection System area plus the number of future sewer expansions that may be requested during the Extended Collection System implementation, as well as changes that would be expected to occur in other California communities, the Town would not remain "the largest unsewered community in California" with implementation of the Proposed Project, but could become “the largest community in California with unsewered areas”. As a note, this sentence was used to introduce the Town's post-fire history and was referenced from Butte County Association of Governments documentation (BCAG 2019a); it was not intended to provide "context on the limitations with sewer service only to within the SSA" as stated in the comment. - The information presented in Mr. Ripley's SWRWD Plan and in his comment letter do not manifestly show the alternatives that were assessed in the draft PEIR are unreasonable or that they do not contribute to a range of alternatives which are capable of attaining most of the basic objectives of the project. 8 State-of-the-Art Infrastructure: The same local Paradise Post press report indicated that: [Paradise Mayor Steve] Crowder pointed out that the undergrounding project by Pacific Gas and Electric is also a critical project that will make Paradise “a state-of-the-art community with a brand new
infrastructure.” Beyond underground electrical power
distribution, “state-of-the-art” infrastructure should also include sewer collection, potable water distribution, nonpotable water distribution, independent high pressure supplemental fire supply, fiber optic distribution, and community-scale wildfire defense integrated with the
recently authorized wildfire early warning system. Clearly, all underground utility construction should be coordinated and should precede construction of any new public roads where the utilities are installed. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Thank you for your input. The Town also considers financing options when pursuing a project. The Town is seeking grant funding for Design, Right of Way and Construction of the sewer project, which is available for septic to sewer conversions, but is not currently available for the alternative utility systems described.

Analysis of timing and funding for utility construction and new roadways is not included in the Draft PEIR for Town sewer service; CEQA documentation requirements for utilities construction and/or new public roads would be determined and carried out when corresponding projects are defined. 1653

9 (Appendix B) 1.0 State and Regional Water Board Policies supporting regionalization: Any State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) or Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) policy supporting “regionalization” is an out-of-date policy predicated on “disposal” of wastewater and not beneficial reuse.

RWQCB Central Valley Region #5 (R5) Resolution R5-2009-0028 indicating support for “Regionalization” in the same resolution supports “Reclamation, Recycling, and Conservation.” In the context of the Town of Paradise proposed 18-mile export pipe, the increased discharge of secondary effluent to the Sacramento River runs against California’s long-standing strategy to minimize potable water demand and increase water recycling. The SWRCB encourages water recycling with more recent statewide policies and orders including the 2018 Water Quality Control Plan for Recycled Water and the 2016 General Order for Water
Reclamation Requirements for Recycled Water Use. Further, Governor Newsom this month released California’s Water Supply Strategy which establishes a plan for significant increases in urban water recycling by both coastal and inland communities. The plan targets an increase of 0.8 million acre-feet (MAF) by 2030 and 1.8 MAF by 2040 (see Figure 1 [in App B]). Based on the state’s overwhelming need to reduce potable water demand and
beneficially recycle water wherever feasible, it is the 18-mile export plan that would likely not be supported Governor’s office and would likely not be supported by state and federal funding agencies. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Please see response to Mr. Ripley's comment #5 to statements regarding the Governor's California's Water Supply Strategy and comment response #6 for discussion of the Regional Water Board's understanding of water recycling and reuse value. In regards to regionalization policies, in a letter dated November 4, 2020 from the Regional Water Board to the Paradise Town Manager cited above and in the Draft PEIR multiple times (https://paradisesewer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/2020-Central-Valley-Regional-WaterQuality-Control-Board-Alternatives-Analysis.pdf), preliminary findings of the Regional Water Board are as follows: "... it is the opinion of the (Regional Water) Board's technical staff that the regionalization option presents an objectively more sustainable long-term solution to the Town's wastewater infrastructure needs.

Due to the apparent overwhelming advantages of the regionalization option, it is the (Regional Water) Board's strong recommendation for the Town to conserve limited financial resources and focus its feasibility analysis on the regionalization option." Further, the Regional Water Board states: "Informing this evaluation is the (Regional Water) Board's decades of experience that local wastewater treatment plants of the type being considered by the Town consistently struggle to comply with applicable regulatory requirements to protect groundwater and surface water." In the Regional Water Board's qualitative analysis attached to their Nov 2020 letter, the Board finds that: "... it is not clear if a sufficient number of users are available, or that a recycled water delivery system (within the Town) would be feasible" and "The City of Chico already provides recycled water for waterfowl habitat uses, and City staff have stated that expanded recycled water use would be desirable and may be pursued in the future. Revenue generated through regionalization with Paradise could make recycled water projects more feasible for Chico." Finally, the Regional Water Board's analysis regarding viability of financial assistance finds that a local alternative is: "Likely to receive less favorable consideration, or outright denial, especially if regionalization has similar or better overall feasibility. May not comply with State and Regional Water Board policies supporting regionalization of wastewater services." (https://paradisesewer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/2020-Central-Valley-Regional-Water-QualityControl-Board-Alternatives-Analysis.pdf). Given the Regional Water Board's negative findings regarding local project feasibility, funding access, and potential for further groundwater and surface water impacts, as well as other reasons captured in Section 5.2.1, Table 5.2-1, the Town eliminated local alternatives from consideration in the Draft PEIR.
10 (Appendix B) In the Town’s case, “regionalization” assumes connection to Chico’s water pollution control plant (WPCP) which discharges secondary effluent to the Sacramento
River. In light of R5’s intent to require Chico to remove nitrogen from its discharge, the draft PEIR should not
overlook the cost and energy intensity required to nitrify and denitrify prior to discharge. As a related example, R5
required Sacramento Regional Sanitation District’s WPCP in Elk Grove to remove nitrogen prior to discharge to the
Sacramento River at a capital cost exceeding $2 billion. Local reuse, conversely, would beneficially utilize nitrogen and other nutrients for agricultural, landscape, and turf
fertilization. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Regarding the "R5 intent to require" the City to nitrify and denitrify (treated water) prior to discharge, the comment has been considered, and is outside the scope of the PEIR, which is about construction, operation and maintenance of the pipeline; rules for use of it are separate. For response to comments regarding local reuse being considered in the future at the Chico WPCP, please refer to the response to Mr. Ripley's comments #5 and #9. Finally, the intent of an agency cannot be confirmed or disputed by the Town as there is no backup information supporting the statement.

11 (Appendix B) 2. Regional Board November 2020 letter
supporting regionalization: The November 2020 R5 letter fails to compare local urban water reuse with river discharge and “recycled water for waterfowl habitat uses”. Nor does the letter consider the multi-benefits of a dual distribution system within the Town that would include 1) non-potable recycled water for landscape, park, turf and agricultural irrigation, 2) seasonal aquifer recharge dispersed throughout the service area, 3) state-of-the-art community-scale wildfire defense, 4) high pressure supplemental water supply for fire suppression, 5) protection against any future
depressurization of PID’s potable distribution system and 6) beneficial use of nutrients inherent in wastewater. Upgrades to the Chico water WPCP for river discharge and/or
agricultural reuse could easily exceed $300 million for nutrient removal and other treatment process
improvements over the next decade. The Town would be
responsible for it’s proportionate share of costs and its contribution would offer zero benefit to Paradise Irrigation District’s (PID)water supply portfolio and zero benefit for the Town’s fire suppression capability. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

This comment has been considered, and is outside the scope of the PEIR. It is not within the Town's jurisdiction to question or explain the Regional Water Board's findings as stated in the November 2020 letter, nor has data resulting from any level of planning/design been publicly released by the Chico WPCP that could be accurately used to estimate costs for upgrades at the Chico WPCP for recycled water or to estimate the financial contribution that the Town could be required to make. The scope of the PEIR is limited to construction of a sewer system and does not include an assessment of the potential for future water recycling at the Chico WPCP.

Although the comment is not relevant to the project, some explanation may be of assistance. Regarding reference to the dual distribution system acting as protection against any future depressurization of PID’s potable distribution system, PID’s 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (2020 UWMP; pidwater.com) described what occurred during the Camp Fire: “Several hours into the duration of the Camp Fire, PID’s pipe network experienced a significant depressurization in a majority of its water mains. A significant number of the 10,480 individual service laterals and/or meters melted and the system partially drained. Though the WTP continued to produce water during the fire, demands from fire sprinklers, firefighting activities, and free-flowing service connections where structures once stood drained significant portions of the system. This depressurization event resulted in negative pressure in many areas throughout the main network..”. Since the same or less costly pipe materials, meters and valves are generally used in constructing purple pipe lines (recycled water) as is used in potable water lines, what occurred in the Camp Fire wouldn’t be stopped by increasing the number of lines, but by upgrades to pipeline materials or other safeguards, as would be determined by Paradise engineering team (pidwater.com) pp. 3-3 and Annex F-27).

Further, the Mitigation Plan attached as part of PID's 2020 UWMP presents Action 9. Backup Portable Generators as a mitigation action based on their risk assessment study. Benefits that would result from funding this action include “The District would not experience a depressurization of distribution system (and would not) lose the ability to treat water for the Town of Paradise…”. As such, PID presents backup portable generators as the solution to mitigate the potential for a long power outage or depressurization during wildfire (pidwater.com, 2020 urban water management plan, Annex F-47).

12 (Appendix B) The R5 letter indicates that [the] “Pipeline to Chico can be cost-effectively sized to accommodate a large range of flows.” This indicates that the pipeline can likely accommodate significant wastewater flows over and above the needs of the Town for planned developments within
Chico’s southeast sphere of influence and rural Butte County along the pipeline route. Table 1 presents pipeline capacities for the proposed 10.5 mile 12” export pipe force main based on a range of flow velocities. Table 3 presents the carrying capacity of plastic pipe from an engineering manual which indicates velocities for 12” pipe within the range of 1.3 to

10.12 feet per second (fps). The 7 fps maximum figure
presented in Table 1 is well within the range presented in the engineering manual. At that flow velocity, the export pipe capacity is about 2,400 gallons per minute (gpm), or about 1.7 million gallons per day (MGD) on an average day flow (ADF) basis and 3.4 mgd on a peak hour flow (PHF)
basis. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

The section of the export pipeline referred to in the comment is the Gravity Force Main. As stated in the Draft PEIR (pp. 43-51), “Flow leaving the Transition Chamber would be under pressure based on the gravity flow from the steep Ridge Gravity Section, and the pipe would flow full, creating a beneficial force main based on the hydraulic behavior of the sewer (eliminating the need for a pump station, which is not a part of this system), so the effluent can reach the Chico WPCP. A modulating plug valve would keep the Transition Chamber and Gravity Force Main Sections full, to maintain the hydraulic function of the Gravity Force Main Section." Therefore, the Gravity Force Main was sized based on a differential head criteria, not based on a velocity criteria, such as the 3 to 7 feet per second figures stated in the comment.

The comment appears to relate to a concern about additional connections happening along the export pipeline, between the Town of Paradise and the Chico Water Pollution Control Plant. The engineering work completed by HDR did not include provision for any such additional connections to the Gravity Force Main.

In addition, the Principles of Agreement developed between the Town of Paradise and City of Chico, which are currently being drafted into an Inter-Municipal Agreement to be adopted by the Town Council and City Council, states “The Town and the City agree to prohibit future connections to the export pipeline in the portion of the pipeline that sits outside of the Town limits or City limit.” (www.paradisesewer.com, 1st Draft Principles of Agreement version 7, 21-March-2022). Please also refer to response to L10-6 and other discussions of the Regional Water Board's 2020 study and letter to the Town. 13 (Appendix B) At 1.7 mgd ADF, the lost opportunity for local water recycling in the Town, southeast Chico and rural Butte County could be about 2,000 acre-feet per year (afy) as indicated in Table 2. “Regionalization” as a primary
justification for the 18-mile export project is clearly in conflict with the Governor’s California’s Water Supply
Strategy since it forecloses on a potential 2,000 afy of urban water recycling in the Town and southeast Chico. Based on current drought and wildfire threat conditions, the
Governor’s office would likely strongly support the local reuse alternative over the export alternative. In that same light, the grant funding opportunities for local water reuse would likely be significantly greater than for the 18-mile export based on the Governor’s strong emphasis on urban reuse projects anywhere in the state. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Please see responses to Mr. Ripley's comments #5 and #9. Anticipating what level of support would be imparted by the Governor's office would be speculative and does not speak to the Draft PEIR's adequacy or accuracy; therefore, this comment has been considered, but does not require specific response. However, it is anticipated that the Governor may give some deference to the findings of the Regional Water Board. 1656

14 (Appendix B) The R5 letter fails to acknowledge that Butte LAFCo cannot approve an 18-mile extension of sewer service absent an existing or impending public health and safety threat. The 0.1 mgd post-fire subsurface dispersal in the sewer service area (SSA) that had a pre-fire permitted
subsurface dispersal capacity of about 0.5 mgd cannot be considered an existing or impending health threat. Absent such a threat, Butte LAFCo cannot approve the extension as it is the only legally permissible justification available to LAFCo to approve a service extension request outside of an agency’s (Chico) Sphere of Influence. The only path forward with the extension request therefore would likely be a
waiver approved by the state legislature and the Governor, similar procedurally to Assembly Bill 36 (Gallagher, 2021). (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Please see response to Mr. Ripley's comment #6 above. Further, it is not within the Town or commenters' jurisdiction to interpret regulatory guidance or make a determination regarding what Butte LAFCo can or will approve, and, more immediately, is outside the scope of this Draft PEIR. LAFCo staff are uniquely qualified and appointed to make such determinations based on regulatory guidance and experience and the agency has its own process for public review and appeals.
15 (Appendix B) The R5 November 2020 letter did not confirm the presence of an existing or impending public health and safety threat in Paradise of which it has the technical and regulatory authority to determine. Even if R5 made such a determination, the proposed export project serving only 14% of the Town would not alleviate most of the threat since there is ample high density residential, commercial, health careand institutional development outside of the proposed SSA which could also have subsurface dispersal issues.

Absent an existing or impending health and safety threat, the 18-mile export project as indicated above is legally impermissible. In its alternative analysis of the
regionalization versus local reuse options available to the Town, R5 erred in not considering Government Code
restrictions on any extension of utility service from one jurisdiction to another in California. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Please see responses to Mr. Ripley's coments #11 (Town's lack of jurisdiction/expertise to explain findings of Regional Water Board), and #'s 6 and 14 (LAFCo Government Code restrictions). Further, the 2020 Regional Water Board letter was not required to discuss a public health and safety threat, as they had already declared it as such in their In a letter dated May 4, 1992; at that time the RWQCB approved the Town’s plans to establish an “Onsite Wastewater Management Zone” to address public health and environmental concerns noted in previous studies (RWQCB 1992). The 2020 letter was intended, as titled, to present an Evaluation of Wastewater Treatment Plant Options (https://paradisesewer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/2020- Central-Valley-Regional-Water-Quality-Control-Board-Alternatives-Analysis.pdf). Please also refer to comment response L10-14. Further, Chico City Code Section 15.40.285, Regulation of Waste Received from Other Jurisdictions , requires that any project with another municipality which would utilize the Chico sanitary sewer system requires an intermunicipal agreement (IMA) and sets out the requirements for such agreement; therefore, the Town is following existing regulatory guidance. 1657

Siting local wastewater facility within residential and business areas: Figure 2 presents an image of a California Title 22 water reclamation facility sited in a residential setting in southern California. This facility was permitted by R8 (Santa Ana Region) under Title 22 criteria and had operated continuously between 1981 and 2006
when the facility was decommissioned with the arrival of an Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA) purple pipe extension to two adjoining golf courses. During its 25-year operation, this author was not aware of a single odor or noise

Although the comment is not relevant to the project, some explanation may be of assistance. In review of the text accompanying the figure in this case study (Tchobanoglous, G., et al, Water Reuse, Technologies, and Applications, McGraw Hill, 2007, Figure 12-17), as introduced by the commenter, some points require clarification. The author of the textbook does state "The plant... is provided with odor control facilities. The design features have proved that a wastewater facility can be constructed and operated in a residential-type setting without nuisance" (p.760). However, there is no information on noise or odor complaints received and no description provided to understand the criteria used to determine "without nuisance" or to understand what the author's thresholds were. The project "was initially conceived and built by a developer who needed a golf course to improve marketability and value of the residential property", was used solely for the Upland Hills Country Club (p.760) golf course irrigation, and payment was made by the golf course for the recycled water. The author found that "Because the influent wastewater is of domestic origin and the influent has a TDS of about 485 mg/L, the effluent is well-suited for golf course irrigation (p.761). Treatment of the wastewater, as described in the case study, was limited as compared to another case study in the same textbook for the Solaire Building in New York constructed around 2005 (751). Reclaimed water at the NY facility was limited in use to only toilet flushing and cooling tower makeup, and later added irrigation at an adjacent park. However, the NY system also required ozone oxidation, ultraviolet disinfection, and ultrafiltration membrane units, injection of potable water, and later, for irrigation, the addition of a reverse osmosis system - all absent from the process flow description for the golf course facility as described in the textbook, possibly due to changing water quality requirements for reclaimed water over time or variances in state/regional regulatory requirements. Therefore, noise and odor effects could be very different if the golf course facility were required to add those additional treatment systems. Further, the facility was decommissioned because "... the facilities are in need of upgrading to preserve their integrity. Lack of adequate local financing for improvements is an obstacle in implementing necessary upgrades. ... unfunded replacement reserves would have facilitated needed rehabilitation and upgrades to ensure continued operations without full system replacement" (p.761). Therefore, the decision was to decommission the failing local facility and connect to the Inland Empire Utilities Agency facilities (as described in commenter's discussion).
17 (Appendix B) 4. Lack of sufficient recycled water users in area Table 3 indicates PID’s pre-fire estimate of total water demand in 2040 of 7,817 afy. This compares with 3,576 afy of PID’s pre-fire estimate of 2040 wastewater dispersal as indicated in Table 4. These two values indicate that, on an annual basis, the total service area pre-fire potable and raw water demand is roughly 2.2 times the wastewater
generation. On a seasonal basis, the non-potable exterior irrigation demand could be as high as 4 times the interior potable demand on peak summer days. Clearly, with dual
distribution to all served parcels, the annual average nonpotable demand exceeds the potential recycled water supply. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

PID updated their Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) in 2021, which reports much lower estimates of demand over a 20 year horizon (2025 - 2045; published in June 2021 and available at:
https://pidwater.com/docs/about-your-water/water-supply/2001-pid-2020-urban-water-managementplan/file). Given there is no water reuse in the Town at this time, the calculations include all water needs for the community. In this document, PID reports: "There is no known deficit of supply in the planning horizon of this UWMP, even considering the likely impacts of climate change in that time period with increasing temperature, reduction in rainfall, and declining snowpack." (PID UWMP 2021, Section 6.13, p.6-12) In the same document, DWR Tables 7-2, 7-3, and 7-4 (pp. 7-6 to 7-7) compare PID supply with Town estimated demand 2025-2045. These calculations look at a normal year (7-2), a single dry year (7-3), and up to five years of consecutive drought conditions (7-4). Even with up to five years of consecutive drought conditions, 2025- 2045, PID shows a minimum estimated 1,312 acre-foot overage. PID states: "It is important to note that in all scenarios shown in these tables, Normal Year demands are shown, without the expected conservation percentages ranging from 10-50% that would be expected in drought conditions. By comparing reduced supply volumes in dry years to Normal Year demand levels, it is shown conservatively that PID is able to successfully meet demand in all year types." (p. 7-6). The 2015 UWMP appears to no longer be available at the PID website noted above; further, there are no estimates for "wastewater dispersal" in PIDs 2022 document; therefore, the quoted wastewater numbers in this comment can not be verified or discussed. 1658

18 (Appendix B) 5. Large effluent storage facility needed for winter flows: Based on information provided by Town
engineers, the heat of the Camp Fire at the ground surface did damage some septic tanks, particularly those
constructed of plastic or fiberglass. However, of the 11,000+ leachfields there has been no reported damage. With that context, the Sewer, Water Reuse, and Wildfire Defense
(SWRWD) Plan proposes to utilize the existing 11,000+
leachfields for shallow aquifer recharge in the winter months eliminating the need for a seasonal effluent storage facility.

The dual distribution will be in place, and individual
irrigation controllers will be used to control and meter delivery of tertiary effluent to existing leachfields in the winter months as/when needed. Ultimately, the pre-fire
2040 estimate 3,576 afy dispersal of septic tank effluent would be reduced to about 980 afy dispersal of tertiary effluent meeting strict Title 22 unrestricted irrigation standards. These values assume the long-term objective of the SWRWD Plan to serve most if not all of PID’s 10,600 service connections and not just the 1,500 connections in the proposed SSA. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

As stated in Comment Response 17, based on PID's Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) (2025 - 2045; published in June 2021 and available at: https://pidwater.com/docs/about-your-water/water-supply/2001- pid-2020-urban-water-management-plan/file) the 2022 UWMP (PID 2021 - reference in Comment Response 17), there is no projected shortage of water.

20 (Appendix B) 7. Local WWTP construction would be a lengthy process: The 2016 General Order for Water Reclamation
Requirements for Recycled Water Use provides an expedited path for recycle permits, since most non-potable recycled water projects rely on the same regulatory framework
provided in Title 22. With low-pressure effluent collection and temporary treatment facilities at say, the abandoned Lava Creek golf course, time to first-flush would likely be less than 18 months, perhaps as little as 12 months from
authorization to proceed. This compares with estimates of the gravity collection and 18-mile export project taking as much as a decade to first-flush. There is ample precedent in R5 for satellite water reuse facilities permitted under Title 22 criteria for disinfected tertiary recycled water. In
combination with the 2016 General Order, the R5 approval process could be concurrent with the facility design thereby expediting the project delivery schedule. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

The project as proposed will be operational by Summer 2026, as shown in the schedule on paradisesewer.com.
21 (Appendix B) 8. Auxiliary water system would for fire suppression would be a separate pipeline system: Yes, a separate pipeline system would be required modeled after El Dorado Irrigation District’s dual distribution system (in operation for over four decades) and San Francisco’s
auxiliary water supply system (in operation for over a
century). In addition, the dual distribution provides access to individual leachfields for winter subsurface dispersal and would provide assurance that, in the event of a repeat of an extreme wildfire event, that PID’s potable system would be protected from depressurization caused by the abrupt
increased demand from residential sprinklers and firefighting activity. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Thank you for your comments. They are outside the scope of the project and fire suppression is not one of the identified objectives of this project.

22 (Appendix B) 9. Inefficient oversizing of treatment facility in early years: Inefficient oversizing of infrastructure is not unique to wastewater treatment facilities – it is a given on any infrastructure project – water import and treatment facilities, power generation and transmission, highways, airports, rail facilities, ports, etc. etc. Utilization is never near optimum in the early years, and full utilization may come decades after construction is complete. For context, how efficient is a $184 million export project when the initial flow estimate is only about 0.1 mgd serving a 2026
connected population of 1,391? Since the $184 million
figure is only a Class 5 estimate (- 30% to +50%) coupled with the recent inflation spike, the actual construction bid cost could easily exceed $300 million – with no possible
opportunity for interim temporary facilities or phasing.

Where’s the early year efficiency in that? (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

The pipeline has been sized to accomodate the flow from the Core Collection and Extended Collection system, as well as the Treatment Plant capacity, within the 30-year planning horizon as laid out in the Town of Paradise 2022 General Plan Housing Element Update (Section 2.5.1.1 of the Draft PEIR). Further, Chico City Code Section 15.40.285, Regulation of Waste Received from Other Jurisdictions , requires that any project with another municipality which would utilize the Chico sanitary sewer system requires an intermunicipal agreement (IMA) and sets out the requirements for such agreement. Estimates regarding "actual construction bid costs" would be speculative at this level of design. 23 (Appendix B) 10. O&M for a full-scale treatment facility would be supported by a small initial ratepayer base: Figure 4 presents a satellite water reclamation facility owned and operated by Fresno County Special Districts, County Service Area #34. This facility was permitted by R5 under Title 22 criteria in 2005. Table 6 presents the 2022-2023 projected operating budget for operation and maintenance (O&M) of this facility. Compare that Fresno County CSA #34 O&M
value with estimates for the export project O&M:
$254,000/yr for the regional pipeline, $1,022,000 for the gravity collection system, and the $491,000 contribution to Chico WPCP O&M. These annual costs total $1,767,000/year starting at first-flush. How can the Town afford this when most of the SSA parcels are currently vacant? Add to this annual O&M cost the annual cost of the local share of loan debt repayment since it is unlikely that the project will achieve 100% grant funding for capital costs. If interior residential water use is reduced to 42 gallons per person per day (gpcd) by 2040 in accordance with recommendations by the California Department of Water Resources, the Town
connected population served by a similar Title 22 facility (CSA #34 plant) could potentially be about 4,700, equal to the estimated population in the SSA at Year 2050. (All
references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

The local treatment alternative does not meet the goals of the project as set out in Section 2.3.2, Project Goals and Objectives. Further, as explained above, the Town has secured grant funding for the development of the preliminary engineering and preparation of the environmental documentation. We are also working to secure grant funding for the design, right-of-way, and construction stages of the project. The Town is aware of the cost estimates associated with design, construction, and operation of the sewer project, as is estimated at this early point in design. As noted in previous and subsequent comment responses, this comment does not speak to the physical environmental assessment of potential impacts that could result from proposed project implementation and speaks to potential costs, which is outside of the scope of the PEIR.

24 (Appendix B) 11. Treatment processes not easily scalable:

The export plan has zero potential for phasing and cannot be scaled up ever once capacity is reached in the collected area of the SSA. The local treatment collection system and local water reuse plant, however, can be scaled up to ultimately serve all 10,600 connections and be designed to operate efficiently even at low initial flows. (All references used in text can be found as part of original letter and exhibits [attached]).

Please see Comment Response #L10-7 regarding scalability. 25 (Appendix B) 12. Extensive ongoing monitoring required for local recycling: Table #6 does not call out monitoring costs since Fresno County operators conduct in-house lab tests as part of their normal daily and weekly routines. Monitoring costs are included in the “Professional and Specialized Services” line item. Monitoring reports are submitted by the operators to R5 on a quarterly and annual basis. All
operators are state-certified and are employees of Fresno County.

Thank you for the information. The PEIR is to analyze the proposed Town sewer pipeline construction, operation and maintenance and does not include a discussion of costs.

4 3. I am requesting that the Final PETR include a copy of my letter comments, dated June 3, 2021, regarding the Notice of Preparation which were submitted on that date and that
they be included in the Response to Comments on the DPEIR for the proposed sewer line project, including the article that I prepared which analyzes the public policy, legal, and environmental benefits to be gained by reconsidering the "Preferred Project." The issues raised in my letter of June 3, 2021 have not been addressed, analyzed, or considered in the DPEIR and that they be analyzed and considered in the "Project Alternatives" section of the EIR prepared for the proposed project.

As requested, the June 3, 2021 letter with attachments has been appended to the (this) current comment letter from Mr. Harriman (#L11) and issues raised are addressed here. Since Mr. Ripley’s SWRWD Plan and comments appear to be consistent with Mr.

Harriman’s June 3, 2021 letter and current comments, some issues have already been responded to and therefore, references to Mr.

Ripley’s L10 comment letter (comments 1 – 25) are provided, as appropriate.

Issue 1. Response: Your agreement with LAFCo NOP comment letter dated May 20, 2021 is noted and the referenced LAFCo letter is attached to June 3 letter as part of this response to comments appendix; Issue 2. Response: Thank you for providing your “Urban Water Conservation: Another Alternative” opinion paper. Similar to the SWRWD Plan, calculations and opinions are included that the Town is not required to provide responses to as there is no substantiation or factual documentation to consider. Further, comments on costs and financing options are outside the scope of the PEIR. Any remaining points described in the your paper are similar to, and in some cases identical to, the SWRWD plan and are responded to in responses to Mr. Ripley’s letter (#L10, 1 to 25).

Issue 3. Assessment of environmental, planning, and economic impacts corresponding to updates to the General Plan would be speculative and are outside the scope of this sewer project PEIR – as noted by Mr. Harriman, both the Town and City have separate CEQA documentation to analyze effects that may result from future updates to both communities’ General Plans.

Issue 4. Given that the Proposed Project Description has evolved and been updated between the commenters letter date of June 3, 2021 and the posting of the Draft PEIR for public review on July 14, 2022, this issue has been resolved. There were no comments received on the Draft PEIR from Mr. Harriman or any other commenters on the Draft PEIR that contested the completeness or accuracy of the description of the Proposed Project. Further, this comment again focuses on opinion regarding the rationale for project, but does not reference facts to support the opinion; therefore, the Town is not required to respond.

Issue 5. As you request in comment, the PEIR does “disclose, analyze, discuss and address the potential significant impacts to the environment which may occur”. However, the EIR cannot address possible future changes to the final project, as they are unknown and would be speculative; however, as required by CEQA (Section 15162 (a) and (a)(1)), “When an EIR has been certified… for a project, no subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project unless the lead agency determines… (that) substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous EIR… due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects”, the Town would be required to complete additional CEQA analysis if either of the conditions referenced above were to result from changes to the final project.

Section 5.2 of the PEIR describes why the Town has eliminated the “local option” from consideration as a feasible alternative; therefore, there is no discussion of the issues presented in the letter within the “Project Alternatives” section of the PEIR, rather all are addressed here. Please also see responses to Ripley’s letter – L10, Responses #4 and #11 regarding alternatives. 1663

5 4. The benefits for prevention of significant adverse environmental effects from recurrent wildfires on the Ridge that could be provided by the alternative recommended by Dana Ripley in his comments regarding the true "Preferred Alternative" were not considered in the previous Study
relied upon in the DPEIR. The previous Study and Analysis needs to be updated in light of advantages of the locally owned and controlled specially engineered Treatment
Facility on the Ridge. The reason for this request is that the previous analysis relied upon in the DPEIR was prepared before lhe Paradise Camp Fire and needs to be updated, due to the elevated risk of recurrent wildfire, which can be mitigated by the re-use of treated effluent to irrigate and enhance the defensive open space needed to protect new
urban development in the Town of Paradise and in the
County of Butte.

Regarding existing wildfire risk, the PEIR evaluated the proposed project in light of this resource and, with mitigation incorporated (Section 3.18.4, Table 3.19-1), the Town’s analysis found that implementation of the proposed project did not result in “significant adverse environmental effects” on Wildfire, a finding that was not disputed by Mr. Harriman in this comment letter. Development of solutions to current wildfire conditions would be a separate project and is not within the scope of this PEIR.

As relates to the reference to Mr. Ripley’s comment, Mr. Ripley’s “preferred alternative” (as defined by Mr.

Ripley and not related to the Town's CEQA analysis) was considered but eliminated from consideration as an alternative as described in the Town’s response to Mr. Ripley’s comment #L10-4. In addition, this is the first mention of the “Treatment Facility on the Ridge”, which has not been described or otherwise mentioned in comments received on Draft PEIR; the only reference to “the Ridge” was found in a letter Mr. Harriman distributed at a meeting with the Town and Town attorney, that he had written to the Chico EnterpriseRecord on June 4, 2021 (Letter is provided as an attachment to Mr. Harriman's comment letter following the June 3, 2021 letter discussed in L11-4 above). In this letter to the press, “the Ridge” is described as being part of unincorporated (Butte) County, not within the Town boundaries. The Town would not have jurisdiction to propose facilities outside of the Town boundaries; therefore this is outside of the scope of this Paradise sewer project PEIR. Finally, regarding the request for additional studies and analysis, ParadiseSewer.com provides links to all of the studies considered in developing the Proposed Project (under the “Project Materials” tab); the list does include pre-wildfire studies, but they are matched in number by those completed since 2020, post-fire.

Further, please refer to Comment Response #L10-4 regarding the requirements to analyze an alternative under CEQA.
6 5. Although I have made this comment at public meetings regarding the proposed project, it should be noted that the DPEIR does not address, analyze, or consider the
environmental, planning, and economic impacts of not
requiring lhe preparation of the updated General Plans and Environmental Impact Reports for Town of Paradise and the City of Chico as part of the "Preferred Project" analysis, although the Butte County LAFCo has been requesting the Town of Paradise to do so, since 1985. The DEIR should
require a Condition to require such updates to be prepared and approved, prior to the commencement of construction of the proposed project or as a condition of approval by LAFCo.

As stated in multiple Sections of the Draft PEIR, including Sections 2.2.1, 2.2.2, and 2.3.1, the Proposed Project is consistent with the goals of the 1994 Town of Paradise General Plan and accounts for growth consistent with the recently updated Town of Paradise 2022 Housing Element. Further, a resolution (#13-04, included in Appendix B of the PEIR) was adopted by the Paradise Planning Commission in 2013 finding the "1994 Paradise General Plan substantially complies with the statutory mandates under Government Code Section 65302" (Appendix B). Please also review response to L11-4 above, which discusses environmental review of updates to general plans.

7 6. The Project Description is not stable, finite, and accurate.

Draft Program EIR should be revised, amended, corrected, and re-circulated and the public comment period be reopened and new public Scoping Meetings held by the lead agencies, including both the City of Chico and the Town of Paradise. The reason for require the requested action is that because the
purported rationale for the proposed project [expedited redevelopment of the Town of Paradise] will not be achieved by the development and construction of the proposed
project, as defined. In fact, the construction of the Project Alternative advocated by Civil Engineer Dana Ripley could be expedited and achieved much more rapidly than the
construction of the "Preferred Alternative" recommended for adoption in the DPEIR.

The project as proposed fulfills the Project Goals and objectives stated in Section 2.3.2 of the Draft PEIR.

Please also review response to L11-4 above, which discusses sufficiency of the project description. 8 7. The DPEIR fails to disclose, analyze, discuss and address the potential significant impacts to the environment which may occur, depending on what changes arc made to the
"Final Project" pursuant to the "Design Build" legislation adopted in AB 36 (Gallagher). The adoption of AB 36 by the State Legislature has rendered the DPEIR's analyses legally inadequate, because the proposed Preferred Alternative
may bear little or no resemblance to tbe proposed Preferred Project Alternative, due to currently unknown changes made to the final design prior to and/or during construction of the project. Further, due to the preparation of a Draft "Program" EIR, the actual project may be significantly changed during construction by circumventing the project description in the Final PEIR tluough the use of multiple Project Addendums that do not require notice to the public or public review during the course ol' construction of the Final Project design, whatever it may be.

Please see response to L11-4 above, which discusses future project plan updates. Further, County of Inyo, supra, 71 Cal.App.3d at p.199 as referenced in South of Market v City and Co of San Francisco, supra, 33 Cal.App5th 321 at p.8, concludes that "the CEQA reporting process is not designed to freeze the ultimate proposal in the precise mode of the initial project; indeed, new and unforeseen insights may emerge during investigation, evoking revision of the original proposal". The Town recognizes that "Project Addendums" are not required to be noticed to the public; however, CEQA Addendums are also only allowed "if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions (described in CEQA Section 15162 (a), which is quoted in L11-4, Comment 5 above)..." that would call for preparation of a subsequent EIR (new significant effects or substantially increased effects and others listed in Section 15162), would occur. Therefore, if updates to the Proposed Project did occur in the future, the Town would consider what level of additional CEQA analysis, if any, was appropriate based on the potential for new or increased physical effects on the environment or other conditions occur described in Section 15162. Further, Chico City Code Section 15.40.285, Regulation of Waste Received from Other Jurisdictions , requires that any project with another municipality which would utilize the Chico sanitary sewer system requires an intermunicipal agreement (IMA) and sets out the requirements for such agreement; therefore, regulatory requirements already in place are being adhered to. 1665

9 8. However, the most egregious legal inadequacy of the DPEIR is that it is barely readable and understandable, due to the lack of a Table of Contents and inadequate
organization and disclosure of the Comments made during the Notice of Preparation process. The DPEIR glosses over the numerous comments and objections that were made in
the Notice of Preparation process. Specifically, without having the Town General Plan updated since 1980, the
changes in density requirements and other legislation that has been adopted by the State Legislature to provide for more dense residential dwelling units and reduction of
Green House Gasses are barely even mentioned in the
DPEIR, which results in accelerated "urban sprawl" within the Town's Sphere of Influence. Instead of focusing on dense multi-story and affordable multi--family housing in the Town's previously developed urban footprint, the "Preferred Alterative" supports and incentivizes accelerated inefficient sprawl in the Town and into the County's Jurisdiction.

The Draft PEIR document begins with a Table of Contents. All comments received during the NOP public comment window are included with the DPEIR in Appendix A: NOP Scoping Report, organized into a Comment Matrix, as well as Town responses. All comments received in response to release of the Draft PEIR have been reviewed and considered in the process of creating the Final PEIR, in addition to comments received from Mr. Harriman outside of both public comment periods (see response to Comment L11-4).

The version of the The Town of Paradise General Plan used in the development of the Draft PEIR, drafted in 1994, rather than 1980, includes amendments through 2008, and the Town of Paradise Housing Element referenced in the Draft PEIR was updated in 2022 (see response to L11-6 and PEIR, Appendix B).

Density (multi-family housing or vertical construction) becomes more feasible with a sewer system, and is one of the benefits of the sewer project. Please see Comment Response #W17-6 regarding growth outside of the Town of Paradise. Regarding the Draft PEIR focus on affordable housing, as stated in 2.3.2 Project Objectives and Goals, providing economic recovery and construction of affordable housing are integral to the Proposed Project, being identified as the primary objectives and goals of the project to meet the needs of the community (Section 2.3.1).
10 9. Finally, the DPEIR's failure to adequately disclose, analyze, discuss, consider, and compare and contrast the expense of the Preferred Alternative to the more efficient and
expandable specially engineered waste treatment facilities discussed in great length in the Comments submitted by
Dana Ripley in his Comments and "White Paper"
demonstrates the legal inadequacy of the DPEIR and the
failure to proceed in the manner required by law, pursuant to Public Resources Code sections 21 168 and 21 168.5.

Please see Comment Response #L10-4 and #L11-5 regarding the requirements to analyze an alternative under CEQA. CEQA Guidelines Section 15064 describes how to determine significance of effects. Section 15064 (d) states that a Lead Agency should "consider direct physical changes in the environment which may be caused by the project" and defines a "direct physical change" as "a physical change in the environment which is caused by..." the project (Section 15064 (d)(1)). CEQA Guidelines Section 15124, defining what must be include in a project description, does not state that cost of a project is required. Often estimated costs at the early levels of design, such as here, carry huge contingencies as there isn't sufficient detail to make a refined cost estimate. What is required in the CEQA Project Description is "A general description of the project's technical, economic, and environmental characteristics" (Section 15124 (c)). As noted in previous response, economic recovery of the community is integral to the Proposed Project and a primary objective (Section 2.3.1).

I only wanted to know how the sewer was going down the
hill. After repaving the skyway, I would hope you would not have to dig it back up. I can not see where the town plans on digging.

Thank you for your comment. Section 2.5.2.1 outlines how the sewer flows travel the Export Pipeline System, including the Ridge Gravity Section for downhill flows and the Gravity Force Main Section for uphill flows. Any digging will take place in the public right-of-way. Much of Skyway falls under County jurisdiction, and is outside of the jurisdiction of the Town.

As a funding agency and a state agency with jurisdiction by law to preserve, enhance, and restore the quality of California’s water resources, the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) is providing the following information on the EIR to be prepared for the Project.

The State Water Board, Division of Financial Assistance, is responsible for administering the CWSRF Program (Program). The primary purpose for the Program is to implement the Clean Water Act and various state laws by providing financial assistance for wastewater treatment facilities necessary to prevent water pollution, recycle water, correct nonpoint source and storm drainage pollution problems, provide for estuary enhancement, and thereby protect and promote health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants of the state.

The Program is partially funded by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and requires additional “California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)-Plus” environmental documentation and review. Two enclosures are included that illustrate the Program’s environmental review process including the additional CEQA-Plus federal requirements. For the complete environmental application package and instructions please visit:
http://www.waterboards.ca.gov/water_issues/programs/grants_loans/srf/srf_forms.shtml . The State Water Board is required to consult directly with agencies responsible for implementing federal environmental laws and regulations. Any environmental issues raised by the federal agencies or their representatives will need to be resolved prior to the State Water Board’s approval of a CWSRF financing commitment for the proposed Project. For further information on the Program, please contact Mr. Brian Cary, at (916) 449-5624.

Mr. Mattox - 2 - July 27, 2022
It is important to note that prior to a CWSRF financing commitment, projects subject to provisions of the Federal Endangered Species Act (ESA), must obtain ESA, Section 7 clearance from the United States Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), and/or the United States Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) specific to any potential effects to special-status species.

Please be advised that the State Water Board will coordinate with the USEPA to consult with the USFWS, and/or the NMFS regarding all federal special-status species that the Project has the potential to affect if the Project is to be financed by the Program. The Town will need to identify whether the Project will involve any direct effects from construction activities, or indirect effects such as growth inducement, that may affect federally listed threatened, endangered, or candidate species that are known, or have a potential to occur in the Project site, in the surrounding areas, or in the service area, and to identify applicable conservation measures to reduce such effects.

In addition, CWSRF projects must comply with federal laws pertaining to cultural resources, specifically Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (Section 106). The State Water Board is responsible for ensuring compliance with Section 106 and is required to consult directly with the California State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO). The SHPO consultation is initiated once sufficient information is provided by the CWSRF applicant
(https://www.waterboards.ca.gov/water_issues/programs/grants_loans/docs/cultural_res ources_report_prep.pdf). If the Town decides to pursue CWSRF financing, please retain a consultant that meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualifications Standards (http://www.nps.gov/history/local-law/arch_stnds_9.htm) to prepare a Section 106 compliance report.

Note that the Town will need to identify the Area of Potential Effects (APE), including construction and staging areas, and the depth of any excavation. The APE is threedimensional and includes all areas that may be affected by the Project. The APE includes the surface area and extends below ground to the depth of any Project excavations. The records search request should extend to a ½-mile beyond project APE. The appropriate area varies for different projects but should be drawn large enough to provide information on what types of sites may exist in the vicinity.

Other federal environmental requirements pertinent to the Project under the Program include the following (for a complete list of all federal requirements and instructions please visit
http://www.waterboards.ca.gov/water_issues/programs/grants_loans/srf/srf_forms.shtml :

A. An alternative analysis discussing environmental impacts of the Project. The alternative analysis must include:
1669
Mr. Mattox - 3 - July 27, 2022
• A “no project/no action” alternative.
• Comparative analysis among the alternatives that includes discussions of beneficial and adverse impacts on the existing environmental, future environmental, and individual sensitive environmental issues associated with the project.
• Analysis of direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts on sensitive environmental resources, if applicable.
• Appropriate mitigation measures to mitigate adverse impacts, if appropriate.
• Thorough discussion of the rationale for selection of the chosen alternative for the project.

B. A public hearing or meeting for certification of the EIR.

C. Compliance with the Federal Clean Air Act: (a) Provide air quality studies that may have been done for the Project; and (b) if the Project is in a nonattainment area or attainment area subject to a maintenance plan; (i) provide a summary of the estimated emissions (in tons per year) that are expected from both the construction and operation of the Project for each federal criteria pollutant in a nonattainment or maintenance area, and indicate if the nonattainment designation is moderate, serious, or severe (if applicable); (ii) if emissions are above the federal de minimis levels, but the Project is sized to meet only the needs of current population projections that are used in the approved State Implementation Plan for air quality, quantitatively indicate how the proposed capacity increase was calculated using population projections.

D. Compliance with the Coastal Zone Management Act: Identify whether or not the Project is within a coastal zone and the status of any coordination with the California Coastal Commission.

E. Protection of Wetlands: Identify any portion of the proposed Project area that should be evaluated for wetlands or United States waters delineation by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), or requires a permit from the USACE, and identify the status of coordination with the USACE.

F. Compliance with the Farmland Protection Policy Act: Identify whether or not the Project will result in the conversion of farmland. Identify the status of farmland (prime, unique, local or statewide Importance) in the Project area and determine if this area is under a Williamson Act Contract.

G. Compliance with the Migratory Bird Treaty Act: List any birds protected under this act that may be impacted by the Project and identify conservation measures to minimize impacts.

H. Compliance with the Flood Plain Management Act: Identify whether or not the Project is in a Flood Management Zone and include a copy of the Federal Emergency Management Agency flood zone maps for the area. 1670
Mr. Mattox - 4 - July 27, 2022
I. Compliance with the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act: Identify whether or not any Wild and Scenic Rivers would be potentially impacted by the Project and include conservation measures to minimize such impacts.

Following are specific comments on the Town’s draft EIR:

1. On page 70, there might be an error in the section references as most of the references say Section 0.

Please upload to the Financial Assistance Application Submittal Tool (FAAST) (https://faast.waterboards.ca.gov/) the following documents applicable to the proposed Project following the Town’s completion of the CEQA process: (1) one copy of the draft and final EIR, (2) the resolution certifying the EIR and making CEQA findings, (3) all comments received during the review period and the Town’s response to those comments, (4) the adopted Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program and (5) the Notice of Determination filed with the Butte County Clerk and the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research, State Clearinghouse. In addition, we would appreciate notices of any hearings or meetings held regarding environmental review of any projects to be funded by the State Water Board.

Wouldn't it be nice if there was a plan to use treated wastewater here in Paradise to irrigate our new golf course?
Other comments: there are septic systems in CA, where there is no requirement for an inspection every ten years.

This is a summary of numerous comments/complaints I received since the question of a sewer for Paradise came up seven + years ago. But, remember, this happened before and the Town Council was 'recalled'!

Subject: Draft Program Environmental Impact Report for the Paradise Sewer Project Dear Ms. Curtis,
The Department of Public Works has reviewed the Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) that was issued for the public review and comment period on July 14, 2022. Based on our review, the following comments have been prepared under Butte County's authority as a Responsible Agency:
l. Permitting Authority: The PEIR acknowledges that the details of the required permitting and agreements that will be needed for the construction and ongoing operations of the Export Pipeline System within the County right-of-way have yet to be determined. Table ES-1 summarizes the anticipated required project permits and approvals for agencies and jurisdictions (p. xxiv). However, the table does not specify permitting authority for Butte County.

The need for obtaining encroachment permits for work within the County rights-of-way is discussed several times in the PEIR, including Section 1.5 Issues to be Resolved (p. 10). Butte County is a Responsible Agency based on its discretionary approval power over certain aspects of the project including permitting authority which should be specifically recognized in Table ES-1.

2. Impact HAZ-6 Background and Analysis: Section 3.9 Hazards and Hazardous Materials does not appear to provide adequate discussion and analysis on how the proposed mitigation measures will reduce Impacts HAZ-6 and HAZ-7 to a less than significant level. • Impact HAZ-6: Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan
• Impact HAZ-7: Expose people or structures, either directly or indirectly, to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving wild land fires
The Department requests that additional discussion and analysis should be provided in the PEIR to demonstrate how the proposed Mitigation Measures, specifically MM-HAZ-3, MM-HAZ-4, and MMHAZ-5, will reduce the identified significant impacts to a less than significant level. For example, further discussion providing information on the importance of a Rapid Demobilization Plan and how rapid demobilization will be critical during an emergency would support the proposed mitigation measures.

L7
1678
Both the Rapid Demobilization Plan and Evacuation Warning Procedures should be provided to Butte County Public Works for review as part of the encroachment permit application process.

Please feel free to contact me at (530) 538-7681 or at [email protected] if you have any questions.

Sincerely,
��--

RE: DRAFT PROGRAM ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT (PEIR) FOR PARADISE SEWER PROJECT (SCH# 2021050008)
Dear Ms. Curtis -
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the above referenced project. The City has reviewed the Draft PEIR and offers the following comments:

The City understands that the Paradise Sewer Project (Project) is a critical component to the Town of Paradise's (Paradise) overall Camp Fire recovery effort and that the design of the project is in an early phase. Given the scope of the Project, the alignment of certain segments of the proposed pipeline, the location of associated equipment located within or adjacent to the City limits and Sphere of Influence, and the pipeline's ultimate connection to the City's Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP), we look forward to coordinating closely with Paradise during the design, construction, and implementation phases of the Project.

Close coordination will be particularly important for numerous reasons, including, but not limited to:
1) Avoiding potential conflicts between the Paradise Sewer Project and the City's proposed infrastructure projects that are located along or adjacent to the Project's proposed alignment (e.g., the P-18 sewer trunkline segments located within the railroad grade in South Chico and within the Entler Avenue and Midway rights-of-way, the intersection improvements at Hegan Lane and Midway, etc.).
2) Ensuring collaboration regarding the design of those project components (e.g., the Transition Chamber located off lower Skyway, the Flow Control and Metering Structure proposed near the WPCP, and all connections to the City's existing and proposed facilities) that are located within or adjacent to the City to avoid and minimize the potential environmental impacts (soil contamination, water pollution, odors, etc.) that could result from system failures.

The City appreciates Paradise's inclusion of the permitting requirements in the PEI R, including the Sanitary Sewer Systems General Order and associated conditions requiring the preparation of a Sewer System Management Plan and an Overflow 11 D 'i tr n A C b '-'

Paradise Sewer Project, Draft Program EIR
Public Comment
The opportunity to provide this public comment on the Paradise Sewer Project Draft Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) is appreciated. As you are aware, I have been advocating for nearly two years a local water reuse project in Paradise as an alternative to the 18-mile wastewater export identified as the superior project in the draft PEIR. On November 30, 20211 submitted to your office a white paper entitled Town of Paradise, Butte County CA, Sewer, Water Reuse and Wildfire Defense Integrated Plan (SWRWD Plan). That white paper is included in this public comment as Exhibit A.

In light of the broad implications of the export versus local reuse options for Paradise, it may be instructive to consider the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines which includes as an advantage of the "Program" EIR1 the following:

Allow the lead agency to consider broad policy alternatives and program-wide mitigation measures at an early time when the agency has greater flexibility to deal with basic problems or cumulative impacts.

This public comment will attempt to respond to the draft PEI R's assertions that the SWRWD Plan is infeasible and further highlight the benefits to Rebuild Paradise goals and aspirations for restoring a vibrant community with state-of-the-art infrastructure to serve many generations to come. This PEIR is now at an early time when Paradise has the opportunity to reconsider broad policy alternatives that may have been overlooked or misunderstood in the draft report.

This draft PEIR public comment is presented as follows.

Area of Known Controversy #1: Growth Inducing Impacts
The draft PEIR, Section 1.4, recognizes that there may exist growth inducing impacts specifically in the City of Chico and rural Butte County outside of Town and City limits.

In a November 4, 2020 letter from the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board, Region #5 (RS) addressing the local facility versus regional alternatives for Paradise, the statement is made that the "Pipeline to Chico can be cost-effectively sized to accommodate a large range of flows." In a tabulation of pipe carrying capacities of the 10.5 mile 12" diameter export pipe force main along the valley floor (from Skyway at Butte Creek to the Chico WPCP) utilizing reasonable flow velocities ranging from 3 feet per second (fps) to 7 fps2
, the available capacity could potentially be as high as 1.758 million gallons per Paradise Sewer Draft Program EIR

8. However, the most egregious legal inadequacy of the DPEIR is that it is barely readable and understandable, due to the Jack of a Table of Contents and inadequate organization and disclosure of the Comments made during the Notice of Preparation process. The DPEIR glosses over the numerous comments and objections that were made in the Notice of Preparation process. Specirically, without having the Town General Plan updated since 1980, the changes in density requirements and other legislation that has been adopted by the State Legislature to provide for more dense residential dwelling units and reduction of Green House Gasses are barely even mentioned in the DPEIR, which results in accelerated "urban sprawl" within the Town's Sphere of Influence. Instead of focusing on dense multi-story a1\d affordable multifamily housing in the Town's previously developed urban footprint, the "Preferred Alterative" supports and incentivizes accelerated inefficient sprawl in the Town and into the County's Jurisdiction.

9. Finally, the DPEIR's failure to adequately disclose, analyze, discuss, consider, and compare and contrast the expense of the Preferred Alternative to the more efficient and expm1dable specially engineered waste treatment facilities discussed in great length in the Comments submitted by Dana Ripley in his Comments and "White Paper" demonstrates the legal inadequacy of the DPEIR and the failure to proceed in the manner required by law, pursuant to Public Resources Code sections 21 I 68 and 21168.5.

Please include this letter and Comments in the Record of Proceedings and include all of the Comments made regarding the Notice of Preparation previously relied upon by the public to review this very expensive and unnecessary public project in a Revised and Amended Draft ElR for the Prefen-ed Project, instead of Program EIR for this vague, inadequately described, and expensive "Preferred Project". In addition, please remand the review of this proposed project back to the Public Works Department Staff for the preparation of an updated Project Review and Analysis, based on current water resource conditions and Wildland Urban Interface (WU!) environmental setting and background on the Town of Paradise, in the light of the Governor's Water Resiliency Portfolio and recently adopted Water Policy focusing on more efficient use of our water and energy resources. Finally, the Town of Paradise should be required to conduct the updated Study while contemporaneously updating the Town's Genera I Plan,
Thank you for the opportunity lo comment on the DPElR. Please put me on your circulation list for the this Draft EIR and/or any changes in the process, including recirculation of a revised or amended NOP, Project Description, and/or revised or amended Draft EIR for this amorphous project.

Submission Date Letter Number/ # Comments First Name Last Name Comment Jul 17, 2022 W1/1 Alice Patterson Good morning--
I am inquiring for my partner, who lost his home in the fire... How do I find out if his property would be affected by an Easement should this sewer project be approved? This could impact how/when he rebuilds. Property address is 5975 N. Libby. Is there a list of locations where the easements would be going?
Thank you.

Alice
Jul 25, 2022 W2/1 Linda Barton I am about to choose a builder to finally rebuild in Paradise. At this moment, it appears the sewer project for Paradise will help those businesses on Skyway. Which means 99%+ of the residents won't benefit from this undertaking. Who is going to pay for this very expensive but necessary project? I am not interested in seeing it listed when I get my property tax bill.

Jul 28, 2022 W3/1 Kat Carlisle Hello,
Can you tell me when the final design and right of way acquisition phases will begin for the Paradise Sewer Project please?
I saw on the project schedule that these phases are anticipated to begin in Summer 2022, but I wasn't sure if that meant they have already started or not.

Thank you!
Aug 1, 2022 W4/1 Earl Eckert Will the agreement with Chico permit all pumped septic loads to be disposed of in paradise rather than continuing to be disposed of at the County land fill lagoon.

Aug 2, 2022 W5/1 Pam Galloway I think it is a stupid waste of money that could be used for a different project. The cost of the project, the amount of time necessary to complete the sewer project and the number of people who would benefit from it should make it a non starter.

Aug 5, 2022 W7/1 Ivan Garcia Good luck on the project. Would like to encourage and support the paving of a multi-use path on top of your sewer line with the ability to connect this new path to the intersection of Honey run/Skyway near Skyway golf park on the west and to the Paradise Memorial Trail in Paradise. I would suggest paving so that you can send emergency equipment up the hill to fully utilize the Skyway for emergency evacuations.

Thank you.

Aug 5, 2022 W8/1 Joe Rees Hi,
As natural disasters increase in frequency and severity, climate change is becoming harder and harder to ignore. The rise in these disasters along with an overall growing sense of crisis when it comes to the environment is causing an increase in climate anxiety. In fact, a recent Yale survey ound that 70 percent of Americans are now “very or somewhat worried about global warming.” I thought this would be an interesting topic to cover in a guest article for your website. I would address the increase in climate anxiety and what your site visitors can do to relieve their stress while also helping the environment. What do you think?
Thanks so much for your time,

2. How will the project address nearby wells which may be located near the proposed alignment?

3. Was the old railroad (Old Sacramento Northern) right of way considered for the pipe alignment in lieu of Entler Avenue?

4. During construction, how will the project address temporary traffic control along Entler Avenue, considering CHP uses the roadway as direct access.

Aug 10, 2022 W10/1 Ronald Lassonde I am very impressed with the due diligence that the Paradise Town Staff has put into the Sewer EIR. The Sewer is absolutely necessary for businesses to rebuild in our Down Town. A rebuilt Down Town is critical to the overall recovery of our town.

We need the PEIR approved as soon as possible so we can move forward and rebuild our Town Aug 10, 2022 W11/1 Mandi McKa7 HelloChico Velo supports the Town of Paradise and the Sewer Project and encourages the project or project sponsor to include the paving of a multi-use path for bicycles and pedestrians on top of the proposed project.

Currently, Skyway is not a safe route for bicyclists or pedestrians traveling to or from Paradise. This project provides a unique opportunity to solve dual challenges of meeting the need for wastewater infrastructure and also providing a safer, more direct route between Chico and Paradise for bicyclists and pedestrians. If the new multi-use path followed the sewer line all the way to Southgate Lane on the East side of Hwy 99, it would connect users to the existing Midway bike path on the West side of 99.

Additionally, a multi-use path could enable emergency equipment to drive up the path and allow Skyway to be fully utilized as an emergency evacuation route.

Thank you for the consideration- please let us know if you have questions or if Chico Velo can provide additional support.

Thank you.

We be never had a link from Chico to that Bike path although the right of way has been preserved from the Midway by Hagen Lane. It would also provide for service and inspection of the eventual sewer line. A Dual Use facility. There might also be transportation dollars available to do this.

Aug 22, 2022 W16/6 brian anderson I have not read in the reporting the following:
1)What agency will have jurisdiction to provide collection services within the Town of Paradise? 2) Who holds the license to operate wastewater services within Paradise jurisdiction? 3)Who will maintain and operate the pump stations ?
4)What methods of odor control will be employed at each pump station, wet well and other areas where wastewater may come in contact with atmosphere?
As a retired SWRCB licensed WWTP operator of 29 years in the Bay Area the question above are very relevant.

Odor mitigation is of critical importance to our community. 24 hour response to spills and overflows is critical.

An 18 mile pipeline with about a 1500 ft elevation loss, gravity flow management is critical and demands highly skilled personnel.

Submission Date Letter Number/ # Comments First Name Last Name Comment Aug 22, 2022 W17/8 Steven Cismowski I am writing in opposition to the proposed Paradise Sewer Project. Given the increase of ground water concerns in the north state, coupled with the impacts the current and projected drought cycle is having on our groundwater resources, this project is perilously flawed. In my review of the PEIR, I could not find any information addressing the following items:
1) Information is needed regarding the projected increase in size of the current Chico Wastewater Treatment Plant in order to accommodate this increase in treatment. Keeping in mind Chico's current growth-rate and several other LARGE development projects that will also increase demand on this facility - Valley's Edge and Barber Yard, this facility will need to expand, but to what extent? 2) Information and analysis are needed to fully understand the impacts of removing the equivalent of 1/8th of Big Chico Creek's average annual flow out of the current hydrological cycle based on projected peak flow at sewer build out. The long-term impacts of effectively pumping that much water out of the hydrological cycle helping feed local aquifers and creeks (chiefly, Butte Creek, the last viable salmon run off the Delta river system) is unconscionable. Paradise, pre-Camp Fire, was renowned for its forest, largely of Ponderosa pine, growing at lower altitudes than commonly encountered. The additional ground water these trees received from leach lines, not to mention additional nutrients, helped support this rich forest. Taking that life support away will certainly forever change the forest of Paradise's future canopy. Property owners wishing to replicate that forest will need to pump even more ground water to use in their landscapes further exacerbating the drying of downstream aquifers. 3) The proposed path crosses three surface flow creeks (Butte, Comanche and Little Chico) that countless wildlife (and residents) relies on for sustenance and recreation. While the current engineered solution for these crossings may provide sufficient cover, over time, erosion will continue to drop current creek elevations eventually exposing these lines making them vulnerable to damage and leakage. 1776
Submission Date Letter Number/ # Comments First Name Last Name Comment 4) The system will require frequent clean out and regular servicing in order to remain functional. To fail to do so could result in calamitous disaster and contamination of numerous entities (rivers, creeks, farmland, etc.). Encumbering future municipal operations with this laborious task over such a long pipeline will certainly result in failure and/or increased costs to the consumer. There is simply no way to guarantee that funding for this team of pipeline workers and equipment will be sustainable. 5) Paradise's septic waste system served to provide a governor to check unbridled growth. Removing that check, will certainly further increase Paradise's growth potential resulting in an escalating list of longterm impacts for future Butte County residents. The increase growth potential will make future fire suppression impossible, trigger roadway expansion, increase sprawl and further tax our limited natural resources, most acutely, our water resources.

This country has a rich history of failed environmental engineered solutions to current challenges.

Measures like this start out seemingly a "good idea at the time" only to create unforeseen impacts for future generations to solve. I encourage you to reconsider grandfathering in previous property-owner's septic systems to allow our neighbors who have suffered so much to return to their homes and preserve the future of Paradise by ensuring large developers a toehold to urbanize our beloved mountain communities.

Aug 22, 2022 W19/1 Bud Linggi I lived behind the Optimo Lodge from o/a 1948 until I went into the Service, 1960. Of course, along the way of those years, my dad went to Chico, down Neal Road, for the Crocker Bank and I might have accompanied him and used a restroom after he made the deposit.

By this time, local dogs wiped out our chickens and after the Crocker Bank, we went to a Chico outfit that gave us the number of cleaned chickens we needed.

The following week our destination was some place in Oroville for the steaks we needed for the next week, a long trip down Clark Road was used.

So when talk of sewers for Paradise comes up, I remember the leech fields where I got my fishing worms... Bud

Will the town of Paradise be subsidizing Chico's wastewater system , with no control on whatever increase they want or need. The ability to justify any price increase seems to be a normal phenomena.

Are they incorporating Any valving in the design for emergency use in the event that the pipeline or Chico's waste water facility experiences a catastrophic failure? Would valving be in place to allow Paradise to construct there own wastewater facility, or have a load out facility at a future point in time?
Aug 23, 2022 W24/1 Matthew Carlson I support the sewer project and along with it believe a multi use path would be an invaluable asset to the community. It would encourage community health and growth. Paradise lacks safe routes currently so this is needed.

Aug 24, 2022 W27/1 Kevin Baxter I would like to mention my support for the addition of a multi use path along the Skyway during construction of the sewer line. This path would be of historic interest as it would continue the "line" used by trains in the past as well as provide a safer route for non motorized travel to and from Paradise via the Skyway. The path would also be a viable option as an alternative route for emergency vehicles or as an additional route of evacuation, should the need arise. Thank you in advance.

Kevin Baxter
Aug 24, 2022 W28/1 Steve DePue It would be an ideal time to put in a wide paved bike trail up to Paradise on the skyway corridor. You could also put in fiber optical cable for internet use along the same right of way with the sewer project.

Take advantage of multiple uses for the construction project on the sewer system. Also, the paved bike path provides superior access to the fiber optical cable and sewer lines when repairs or access is needed.

Perhaps power could also be delivered from the Chico area to Paradise in an underground line rather than on poles! Planning makes for a better future!
Aug 24, 2022 W29/1 Andrew Keller I support the project and encourage the project to include a multi use paved path for bikes and pedestrians on top of the sewer project. Such a path could be used by emergency equipment to drive up the hill even while Skyway itself is functioning as a one-way downhill evacuation route. This is a great opportunity to also include new regional multi-use non-motorized path to connect Chico and Paradise from the intersection at Honey Run and Skyway to the Paradise Memorial Path Aug 24, 2022 W30/1 William Llamas Seems the Draft PEIR a done deal? So confusing. We need a more comprehensive review other than a commission and/or Board. A citywide meet up for face to face speaking is necessary. And are there any ideas on building UP in downtown. Apartment buildings may be most suitable for many residents. What about beautification projects with help of citizens? So many ideas and no leadership. Time is a wasting and we should have already planted thousands of trees.

It was very disappointing not to see a dedicated two-way bike path installed when PG&E put their electrical infrastructure underground. Then it was extremely disappointing when a dedicated bike path was not installed when the Skyway was recently paved.

Let's not strike out by not creating a dedicated bike path when the sever line is extended from Paradise to Chico.

We have a multifamily property at 5830 Greenthumb Lane, which is just outside of the coverage area, even though it covers the area essentially across the street (Elliott Rd). We would like to have our property included, please. Thank you Aug 26, 2022 W37/1 Maurine Hansen I just finished paying off a $22,000.00 hookup bill in another address. We were not in the zone to be on the first to hook up from septic, to sewer, so were required to wait. We were not able to hook up, but years later we were required to and the price hugely increased. We were told the cost would be even more if we didnt do it "now". I now live in a zone that is not part of the first hook ups. Does that mean another huge financial cost to me, in the future?

Submission Date Letter Number/ # Comments First Name Last Name Comment Aug 28, 2022 W38/1 Roger Cole The proposal to hook Paradises new sewer system to an expanded Chico sewer water treatment system at the Sacramento River sounds good at first. It saves money and utilizes efficiently excess capacity of said water treatment facility. It also simplifies Paradise’s process into a pipeline construction project.

However, as we all have noted from the years of the long ongoing drought, the foothills need every drop of water they can get and /or save or reuse. This plan will export millions of gallons of water from Paradise, and therefore is not good. Instead the wastewater should be treated and returned as close as possible and feasible to the water area it comes from.

The single best feature of the existing septic tank/reach line system has been retention of treated wastewater in the ecosystem.

A similar goal can be accomplished by constructing a primary sewage treatment plant in Paradise followed by a final treatment in a constructed wetland polishing system. This will produce many local benefits.

After the wetland the water can flow to another reservoir location or allowed to be absorbed into the ground or flow through a stream, other kind of recharge. The benefits of retaining water cannot be overestimated. Streams with added wastewater-effluent can improve water quality and support water reuse, while creating habitat and providing urban amenities The Cost–benefit analyses of stream-flow augmentation projects many times fail to account for the full value of ecosystem services provided, including renewed habitats and enhanced urban amenities.

Constructed Treatment Wetlands (PDF)
Phoenix Arizona Constructed wetland Project (EPA)
In 1990, city managers in Phoenix, Arizona, needed to improve the performance of the 91st Avenue Wastewater Treatment Plant to meet new water quality standards issued by the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality. After learning that upgrading their treatment plant might cost as much as $635 million, the managers started to look for a more cost-effective way to polish the treatment plant’s wastewater discharge into the Salt River. A preliminary study suggested that the city consider a constructed wetland system that would polish effluent, while supporting high-quality wetland habitat for migratory waterfowl and shorebirds, including endangered species, and protecting downstream residents from flooding at a lower cost than retrofitting their existing treatment plant.

As a result, the 12-acre Tres Rios Demonstration Project began in 1993 with assistance from the U.S.

Army Corps of Engineers, the Bureau of Reclamation and EPA’s Environmental Technology Initiative and now receives about two million gallons of effluent per day.

The demonstration project was so successful that the city and the Bureau of Reclamation asked EPA for help in expanding the project to a full-scale, 800-acre project.

Council Agenda Summary
Date: November 7, 2022
Agenda Item: 6(a)
ORIGINATED BY: Ashley Stanley, Engineering Division Manager REVIEWED BY: Kevin Phillips, Town Manager
SUBJECT: Paradise Sewer Project Division of Financial Assistance Authorizing Resolution for Funding Applications

LONG TERM
RECOVERY PLAN:

Yes, Tier 1 “Sewer”
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED:

1. Consider adopting Resolution No. 2022-__, A Resolution of the Town Council of the Town of Paradise Authorizing A Financial Assistance Application To The State Water Resources Control Board For The Paradise Sewer Project And Designating The Town Manager Or Designee To Sign And Submit The Application
Background:

Since its incorporation in 1979, the Town has sought a formal wastewater treatment solution for the community, with service for commercial and densely populated residential areas being a priority. Failed and failing septic systems create public health and environmental concerns and have limited economic growth. Prior to the Camp Fire, which almost completely destroyed the town in 2018, Paradise was the largest unsewered community in California. The Town has prepared numerous studies to address its need for a centralized wastewater treatment solution, and in its most recent study, the Town identified a proposed sewer service area. The proposed sewer service area includes the Town’s commercial corridors, and as described in the 2017 feasibility study, it represented the area that had the most septic systems that had failed or were projected to fail by 2022.

The Proposed Project would consist of three primary components: Core Collection System, Export Pipeline System, and Extended Collection System. The Core Collection System would support the centralized businesses and housing in Town, including approximately 1,500 parcels along the Skyway, Clark Road, and Pearson Road corridors. The proposed Export Pipeline System would start at the southern end of the Core Collection System as a gravity sewer line and would continue southwest approximately 18 miles to the City of Chico for connection to the Chico Water Pollution Control Plant. Other than the Town of Paradise flow, no other connections will be allowed to the export pipeline. The Extended Collection System would be an extension of the Core Collection System that would allow collection of sewage from parcels outside the Core Collection System, but within the Town limits.

The Town of Paradise is seeking construction funding concurrently to related environmental review procedures to maintain readiness
Analysis:

The Budget Act of 2021 (Senate Bill 129 and Senate Bill 170) appropriated $1.55 billion to the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) in item 3940-106-0001 (the Infrastructure Appropriation). The budget bill specifies that $650 million (M) is for wastewater projects, with priority given to septic-to-sewer conversions.
1783
The Town of Paradise is working with the State Water Resources Control Board to maximize potential funding which could contribute to the construction of the Paradise Sewer Project.

As a component of the application process for this funding opportunity, the Town is required to adopt a resolution designating authority to sign and submit the application.

Financial Impact:

There are no financial impacts associated with this specific action requested. Project funding is addressed separately through various Council Actions and various funding sources. 1784

Agenda Item: 6(b)
ORIGINATED BY: Marc Mattox, Public Works Director/Town Engineer REVIEWED BY: Kevin Phillips, Town Manager
SUBJECT: CDBG-DR Infrastructure Authorizing Resolution

LONG TERM
RECOVERY PLAN:

Yes.

COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED:

1. Consider adopting Resolution No. 2022-__ , “A Resolution of the Town Council of the Town of Paradise Authorizing and Approving Execution of a Grant Agreement to Receive an Allocation of Funding from the 2018 CDBG-DR Infrastructure Program and any Forthcoming Amendments, Thereto.”
Background:

On January 27, 2020, United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) published Federal Register Notice 85 FR 4681 allocating $1,017,399,000 in CDBG-DR funding, related to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Major Disaster Declarations DR4382 from July to September 2018 and DR-4407 in November 2018. The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) is the grantee responsible for administering the CDBG-DR funds allocated to the State of California. CDBG-DR supports the State of California’s unmet recovery needs related to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Major Disaster Declarations DR- 4382 from July to September 2018 and DR-4407 in November 2018.

Recognizing unmet infrastructure recovery needs, related to DR-4382 from July to September 2018 and DR-4407 in November 2018, HCD allocated $317,428,488 of the CDBG-DR funding to the Disaster Recovery Infrastructure Program (DR-Infrastructure).

Council Agenda Summary
Date: November 7, 2022
Agenda Item: 6(c)
ORIGINATED BY: Ross Gilb, Finance Director / Town Treasurer REVIEWED BY: Kevin Phillips, Town Manager
SUBJECT: FY 2022-23 Operating and Capital Budget Update COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED:

1. After presentation, review and file the financial information provided by staff concerning the FY 2022-23 operating and capital budgets; and

2. Approve staff recommended budget adjustments. (ROLL CALL VOTE) Background:

The fiscal year (FY) 2022-23 operating and capital budgets were adopted July 12, 2022. The General Fund was adopted with a balanced budget, which was achieved through a transfer from the PG&E Settlement funds to compensate for revenue shortfalls resulting from the 2018 Camp Fire. During the September 13, September 15, and October 11, 2022 Town Council Meetings, Council approved additional expenditures relating to the restoration of dispatch services project (CIP #7324), the Category 4 Tree Removal program (CIP #7312), various capital projects relating to CDBG-DR Infrastructure funding, and additional public works department positions.

Currently, about four months of transactions have been recorded for the current fiscal year.

Revenues and expenditures from the beginning of FY 2022-23 through the end of October 2022 have been recorded and reviewed in preparation of the analysis below. Staff will continue to closely monitor costs and prepare recommended budget updates regularly to keep the Town Council and community apprised of any significant changes.

Analysis:

A complete budget performance report is attached for detail review, which contains unaudited actual figures for FY 2021-22, the adopted budget for FY 2022-23, the currently amended budget for FY 2022-23 including amendments approved by Council during meetings from the beginning of the fiscal year through October 11, 2022, actual revenues and expenditures to date, proposed budget amendments by general ledger account, and the proposed amended budget for FY 2022-

23. The most significant developments are described in detail for each major fund below.

Additionally, all recommended budget adjustments have been summarized in the attached Adjustment Summary document as well as listed in detail for each fund affected in the attached Budget Worksheet Report.
1792
General Fund (1010):

Revenues:

Property Tax and Sales Tax
Property tax and sales tax revenues make up the majority of the Town’s General Fund revenue budget. The Town has yet to receive any significant property tax or sales tax revenue allocations for the current fiscal year as of the end of the October 2022. Initial allocations are expected to be received for analysis during the mid-year budget review.

Transient Occupancy Tax
The total budgeted amount of Transient Occupancy Taxes expected to be received during FY 2022-23 is $200,000. This budget is based on actual receipts of $225,000 during the prior fiscal year. Currently, there are two facilities remitting transient occupancy taxes within the Town limits.

USDA Revenues
During the first quarter of FY 2022/23, the Town was notified of the availability of grant funding through the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) that would provide up to 60% of the total purchase price of much needed vehicles and equipment for the Town of Paradise. Town staff worked with the USDA to apply for funding to be applied toward the purchase of a new Street Sweeper (estimated purchase price of $300,000), a Community Services Officer truck and related upfit (estimated purchase price of $75,000), and three Ford Rangers (estimated purchase price of $37,000 each) for the Fire Inspector, Code Enforcement Officer, and Construction Inspector positions. The Town was subsequently awarded a grant of $260,000 based on 60% of the originally estimated purchase price of these vehicles and equipment.

The local share of $144,000 for the Street Sweeper is recommended to be funded through the use of Measure V reserves, as described in the applicable expenditure section of the agenda summary below. The cost of the local share of the other vehicles included under this grant were included in the originally adopted budget for FY 2022-23. However, since the time of budget development, the total cost of the vehicle purchases has increased a total of $22,700 for the combined equipment purchases. The additional expenditures have been included as a proposed budget adjustment within the Police and Public Works General Fund departmental budgets. As the Town was able to secure a greater amount of grant funding through the USDA than originally expected at the time of budget development, the proposed additional expenditures are offset by increases to budgeted USDA revenues based on the total amount of the grant award. As such, there is no General Fund impact as a result of the proposed amendments.

Expenditures:

Overall, General Fund expenditures are within revised budgeted expectations for the first four months of the fiscal year.

As mentioned above, during the September 13, September 15, and October 11, 2022 Town Council Meetings, Council approved additional expenditures relating to the restoration of dispatch services project (CIP #7324), the Category 4 Tree Removal program (CIP #7312), various capital projects relating to CDBG-DR Infrastructure funding, and additional public works department positions. The total projected General Fund impact of these approved expenditures for FY 2022- 23 is $145,870. These additional General Fund financial impacts related to the General Fund 1793
portion of costs for the Public Works positions approved during the September 15, 2022 Council meeting ($90,870), the purchase of workstations and equipment for the newly approved Public Works positions ($20,000), and the purchase of a new Ford Ranger for the newly approved Construction Inspector position ($35,000). These additional costs are included in the amended budget column of the summaries below.

In addition to these previously approved expenditures, staff has identified a net $100,500 of recommended additional General Fund expenditures for FY 2022-23 (excluding Measure V), the majority of which are offset by the additional unbudgeted revenues recognized above.

Additionally, staff has identified $144,000 of recommended expenditures to be funded through Measure V reserves.

The recommended changes by department are summarized in the chart below. A detailed description of each change by department is also provided.

TOWN OF PARADISE
General Fund Expenditure Summary by Division
Fiscal Year 2022/23 Budget
Measure V:
o $144,000 Increase: As mentioned above, during the first quarter of FY 2022-23, the Town was awarded grant funding through the USDA that would provide up to 60% of the total purchase price of much needed equipment for the Town of Paradise. A portion of the grant for which the Town was awarded was to be applied toward the purchase of a new Street Sweeper to assist with street clean up during ongoing road construction efforts. The total amount of the grant relating to the street sweeper purchase was $156,000 based on 60% of the originally estimated purchase price of $260,000. Due to inflationary pressures since the time of grant award, the quoted purchase price of the street sweeper has increased to $300,000. As such, the proposed budget adjustment for FY 2022-23 includes the total local match requirement of $144,000 in order to leverage the grant funding available through USDA and secure current pricing for this much-needed equipment. The proposed budget adjustment would increase the total budgeted expenditures for FY 2022-23 from $1,510,994 to $1,654,994. This would reduce the projected Measure V reserves as of the end of FY 2022/23 from approximately $917,000 to $773,000. o The proposed amendment and revised budget for the purchase of the Street Sweeper, as described above, was presented to, and approved by the Measure V Citizen Oversight Committee on October 25, 2022.
1794
Town Manager:
o $0 Net Impact: Based on review of financial activity within the departmental budget, $4,000 of the total funds originally budgeted towards the replacement of departmental equipment are proposed to be reclassified toward employee development and costs related to Town-wide meetings based on anticipated need for the remainder of the fiscal year.

Central Services
o $10,000 Increase: The actual cost of insurance premiums in the amount of approximately $298,000 relating primarily to general liability, mobile equipment and property coverage was approximately $10,000 greater than the budgeted premium of $289,000. o $2,700 Increase: The Town’s apportioned share of LAFCO operating expenses for the fiscal year was approximately $2,700 greater than originally anticipated at the time of budget development.

Finance
o $2,150 Increase: During the first quarter of the fiscal year, staff identified the urgent need for replacement of the fireproof filing cabinet used by the Finance and other administrative departments for storage of deposits and confidential information. The replacement was not originally included in the adopted departmental budget; however, the old cabinet was no longer functional, and the new cabinet is expected to serve the Town for years to come.

Police Department
o $0 Net Impact: Based on direction provided by Council during the prior fiscal year, Town staff has been actively involved in restoring dispatch services to the Town. The originally adopted budget included salaries and benefits for two public safety dispatcher positions for the full fiscal year. Staff continues to work towards recruitment efforts, however as of the time of budget review, neither of the two public safety dispatcher positions have been filled. The lack of expenditures relating to salaries and benefits for these two positions has created budget savings for the first quarter of the fiscal year. A budget adjustment of $10,500 is recommended to provide funds for advertising and ongoing recruitment efforts for these positions. The proposed additional expenditures are offset by savings related to salaries and benefits described above.

Public Works Engineering
o $0 Net Impact: The repairs of traffic loops at two locations throughout Town were needed due to damages incurred. The cost of the repairs totaled $22,950 and will be reimbursed by the parties responsible for the damages. A budget amendment for the expenditures and related reimbursement revenues has been included for proper tracking of financial activity.

Facilities
o $40,000 Increase: The cost of services for the removal of green waste from Town-owned properties has been identified as ongoing need based on continued annual clean up requirements. The recommended amendment of $40,000 is based on the anticipated annual cost for all Town-owned properties.
1795
General Fund Fiscal Impact and Fund Summary:

The total recommended General Fund budget amendments includes $244,500 of net additional expenditures, which is offset by $56,450 of additional revenues. This leaves a total of $188,050 of additional funding requirements. In order to balance the General Fund budget, an additional transfer from the PG&E Settlement Fund in the amount of $44,050 is recommended as well as a draw-down of Measure V reserves in the amount of $144,000. This additional recommended transfer amount brings the total proposed budgeted transfer from the settlement funds to $11,175,297 for the full fiscal year. The Fiscal Sustainability Model has been updated based on this amended transfer amount to ensure ongoing fiscal sustainability based on a medium growth scenario. The details of the updates to the Fiscal Sustainability Model have been included below.

A General Fund and PG&E Settlement Fund budget summary is also included below which presents the beginning fund balances, original and amended budget figures, and summarized actual results to date. A full detail of all figures presented below is included in the attached Budget Worksheet Reports.

TOWN OF PARADISE
General Fund (GF) Summary
Fiscal Year 2022/23 Budget
General Fund Long Term Fiscal Sustainability Model Impact:

The originally adopted budget for FY 2022-23 included a transfer from the PG&E Fund to the General Fund totaling $10,985,377. The originally budgeted transfer amount maintained an ending reserve balance of the PGE Settlement Fund of $205,002,236 as of the end of FY 2022-

23. Based on the fiscal sustainability model projections from the FY 2022-23 adopted budget, the amount of the original settlement amount reserved for use toward operational costs (~$200 million) remaining as of the end of the 25-year projection period is projected to be $64 million, as shown in the charts below.
1796
The amendments to the originally adopted budget that were approved by Council during the September 13, 2022, September 15, 2022, and October 11, 2022 Council meetings increased the total projected General Fund expenditures for FY 2022-23 by $145,870. These additional General Fund financial impacts related to the General Fund portion of costs for the Public Works positions approved during the September 15, 2022 Council meeting ($90,870), the purchase of workstations and equipment for the newly approved Public Works positions ($20,000), and the purchase of a new Ford Ranger for the newly approved Construction Inspector position ($35,000), as described above. These General Fund impacts increased the revised estimated total projected transfer needed from the PG&E Fund to balance the General Fund to $11,131,247. This increase to the budgeted transfer from the PG&E Fund reduced the estimated balance of the PG&E Fund at the end of FY 2022-23 to $204,856,366.

The costs related to the additional public works positions are the only costs that would be expected to be recurring, while the remainder of the costs would be expected to be one-time, nonrecurring expenditures for the current fiscal year. Based on the updated fiscal sustainability model projections from the recurring costs incorporated into the FY 2022-23 amended budget, the amount of the original settlement amount reserved for use toward operational costs (~$200 million) remaining as of the end of the 25-year projection period after is projected to be approximately $2.7 million less than the original estimate based on the adopted budget, or $61.3 million.

Based on review of the actual fiscal activity compared to the amended budget through October 2022, staff has proposed net additional General Fund expenditures totaling $44,050, which would bring the revised estimated total projected transfer from the PG&E Fund required to balance the General Fund to $11,175,297.

During the first quarter of the fiscal year, the Town received reimbursement of the 1% total settlement amount that was originally held back during the settlement to pay for trailing legal costs. The amount of the reimbursement received by the Town was equal to 1% of the total settlement amount ($2,700,000) less final attorney fees ($472,157), for a net reimbursement of $2,227,843. The net effect of the additional increase to the budgeted transfer from the PG&E Fund and the trailing cost reimbursement is projected to increase the estimated balance of the PG&E Fund at the end of FY 2022-23 to $207,040,159.

Based on the further updated fiscal sustainability model projections from the recurring costs of $44,050 incorporated into the FY 2022-23 amended budget, the amount of the original settlement amount reserved for use toward operational costs (~$200 million) remaining as of the end of the 25-year projection period after is projected to be approximately $1.4 million less than the amended estimate based on the adopted budget, or $59.9 million.

However, with the receipt of the trailing costs reimbursement during the current fiscal year, the total amount of the original settlement expected to be remaining at the end of the 25-year projection period is projected to be approximately $62.4 million as shown in the charts below.

The projected balance of $62.4 million is a positive indicator of continued long-term fiscal sustainability through the period projected and provides an additional contingency reserve that can be utilized if revenue backfill is needed beyond the 25-year projection period, or in the event that rebuild activity, or other factors, varies significantly from current projections at any point in the future.
1797
Originally Adopted FY 2022-23 Budget Proposed Amended FY 2022-23 Budget

COVID-19 (Fund 2095)
The original budget included $1,359,500 of approved expenditures for FY 2022-23 and projected an ending fund balance of $1,224,280 as of June 30, 2023.

During Town Council meetings held through October 11, 2022, Council approved $777,561 of total additional expenditures funded through the use of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds. The additional expenditures included $392,561 toward the restoration of dispatch services project (CIP #7324), $90,000 toward the Category 4 Tree Removal program (CIP #7312), $195,000 toward facility repairs to Town Hall, and $100,000 toward facility repairs to Fire Station

81. The amended budget includes $2,137,061 of approved expenditures for FY 2022-23 and currently projects an ending fund balance of $446,719 as of June 30, 2023. 1798
All revenues and expenditures relating to the COVID-19 fund are within revised budgeted expectations for the first four months of the fiscal year. Revenues relating to the second disbursement for the second half of the Town’s allocation of ARPA funds are likely to be realized during the second half of the fiscal year. A detailed budget performance report is attached for review.

Capital Improvement Fund (2100)
o $250,000 Increase: On June 14, 2022 Paradise Town Council declared an emergency to repair or replace the culvert on Stearns Road in the vicinity of the Dry Creek drainage and to make related repairs to the roadway (CIP/DR Project #9418). Since the declaration, Town staff has bid the project, contracted the work, and completed the project of replacing the culvert. Town Council accepted the completed project on October 11, 2022. The $250,000 proposed maximum project cost is based on the maximum estimated project cost for project engineering and construction. All project costs are expected to be funded through local drainage funds, which would result in no additional General Fund impacts. o $100,000 Increase: Additional funds in the amount of $100,000 have been identified as needed towards the completion of the Pentz Pathway Phase 2 (CIP/DR Project #9389).

The original budget estimate included in the CIP/DR plan for FY 2022-23 was $187,450, which was budgeted to be funded through the use of Federal Congestion Mitigation Air Quality funds. The additional $100,000 budget amendment is proposed to be funded through the use of the Town’s transportation funds annual allocations. o $0 Net Impact: Interim Safety Striping for various critical locations throughout Town (CIP/DR Project #9420) has been identified as a critical project proposed to be completed during the current fiscal year. This project is proposed to be funded through the use of transportation funds originally allocated towards the Town’s CDBG Sidewalk Improvements 2022 project (CIP/DR Project #9417). As presented during the October 11, 2022 Council meeting, cost savings are expected to be realized on the CDBG Sidewalk project that would allow for the reallocation of up to $300,000 in additional funds towards other transportation related projects.
o $60,000 Correction: A project to update the Town’s pavement management program software was included under the adopted FY 2022-23 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP/DR Project #9416), which was planned to be funded through use of Gas Tax Funds. The budgeted line item for these costs was inadvertently excluded from the Gas Tax budget and is recommended to be included under the Gas Tax Fund (GL 2120.45.4750.5910.100) to ensure the Town-wide budget document matches the CIP/DR budget. As the entirety of this project was planned to be funded through the use of Gas Tax fund, there is no General Fund financial impact as a result of this adjustment. o All other revenues and expenditures relating to the Capital Improvement fund are within budgeted expectations for the first four months of the fiscal year. Revenues are likely to be realized later in the fiscal year as reimbursement requests are completed for costs incurred during the fiscal year. A detailed budget performance report is attached for review.

Significant expenditures for the first four months of the fiscal year include:
o 9394 Downtown Sewer Environmental Survey: $ 348,969
o 9377 Almond Multi-Modal Improvements: $ 238,093
o 9385 Paradise Gap Closure Project: $ 191,695
o 9418 Stearns Road Culvert Replacement $ 159,819
o 9390 Skyway-Neal Bike-Ped Project $ 41,952

Disaster Recovery Fund (2105)
All revenues and expenditures relating to the Disaster Recovery fund are within budgeted expectations for the first four months of the fiscal year. Revenues are likely to be realized later in the fiscal year as reimbursement requests are completed for costs incurred during the fiscal year.

A detailed budget performance report is attached for review.

Significant expenditures for the first four months of the fiscal year include:
o 7303 On System Road Rehabilitation: $2,683,586
o 7324 Restoration of Dispatch Services: $ 180,044
o 7312 Category 4 Tree Removal: $ 119,137
o 7320 SWRCB Septic Grant $ 98,937
o 7309 Transportation Master Plan $ 60,365
Gas Tax / Street Maintenance (Fund 2120)
All revenues and expenditures relating to the Gas Tax fund are within budgeted expectations for the first four months of the fiscal year. A detailed budget performance report is attached for review.

Business and Housing (Fund 2160)
All revenues and expenditures relating to the Business and Housing fund are within budgeted expectations for the first four months of the fiscal year. A detailed budget performance report is attached for review.

PGE Settlement Fund (7700)
o Revenues:
o The Town has received $381,490 in interest revenues for the first three months of the fiscal year, which is trending in line with total budgeted expectations of $1,100,000 for the full fiscal year. Staff continues to closely monitor revenues as securities mature and funds are reinvested into new investments under this quickly changing interest rate environment.
o As mentioned above, during the first quarter of the fiscal year, the Town received reimbursement of the 1% total settlement amount that was originally held back during the settlement to pay for trailing costs. The amount of the reimbursement received by the Town was equal to 1% of the total settlement amount ($2,700,000) less final attorney fees ($472,157), for a net reimbursement of $2,227,843. o Expenditures / Transfers Out:
o $44,050 Increase: As mentioned above, the total recommended General Fund budget amendments includes $244,500 of net additional expenditures, which is offset by $56,450 of additional revenues, and a recommended draw-down of Measure V reserves in the amount of $144,000. This leaves a total of $44,050 of additional funding requirements. In order to balance the General Fund budget, an additional transfer from the PG&E Settlement Fund in the amount of $44,050 is recommended.
1800
Conclusion:

Overall, the Town-wide financial activity for the first four months of the fiscal year is within budgeted expectations. The total impact to the General Fund of the recommended adjustments above is an additional $44,050 in expenditures, which is recommended to be offset by an additional transfer from the PG&E Settlement Funds. The amended FY 2022-23 PG&E fund total transfer amount of $11,175,297 and projected PG&E Settlement Fund balance at the end of the projection period included in the Fiscal Sustainability model ($62.4 million) is still a positive indicator of ongoing fiscal sustainability based on a medium growth scenario. Staff will continue to closely monitor financial activity against budgeted benchmarks and will bring any additional recommendations for budget amendment during the mid-year budget review process. 1801

Town of Paradise
Council Agenda Summary
Date: November 7, 2022
Agenda Item: 6(d)
ORIGINATED BY: Jessica Erdahl, Sr. Capital Projects Manager REVIEWED BY: Kevin Phillips, Town Manager
SUBJECT: Emergency Relief Project: 2023 On-System Road
Rehabilitation – PSE Approval and Authorize
Advertisement for Bids.

LONG TERM
RECOVERY PLAN:

Yes, Tier 1
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED:

1. Consider adopting Resolution No.2022- , A Resolution of the Town Council of the Town of Paradise approving the plans and specifications for the 2023 On-System Road Rehabilitation Project and authorizing advertisement for bids on the project. (ROLL CALL VOTE)
Background:

Due to the ongoing recovery effort and debris removal operations within the Town and Butte County, the Town’s on-system roadway infrastructure sustained heavy damage in the wake of the Camp Fire. The pavement structural sections were damaged in two ways:

1. Pavement Scarring due to Car Fires – On the day of the Camp Fire, several motorists were required to abandon their vehicles and continue evacuating on foot. The subsequent car fires damaged the pavement, justifying the need for repair.

2. Pavement Structural Section Damage due to Heavy Truck Traffic – Following the Camp Fire, the Town has experienced a staggering level of truck traffic. During the CALOES Debris Removal effort, over 3.7 million tons of material was removed, equivalent to approximately 300,000 truckloads. During that same period, PG&E, Comcast, and AT&T have restored the distribution infrastructure. PG&E has already removed over 92,000 trees, and an additional 100,000 trees are estimated for removal in 2020. The volume of trucks using the Town’s on-system roads has resulted in damage to the pavement structural section, justifying the need for rehabilitation.

The Town coordinated with Caltrans and Federal Highways Administration (FHWA) to secure Emergency Relief permanent restoration funding to repair damaged on-system roads town wide.

Through the Emergency Relief Program, the Town of Paradise has been approved for $55,439,200 for the on-system road rehabilitation project. The approved project is located on Federal-Aid “On-System” roads – meaning the Town’s primary collectors and arterials such as Skyway, Clark, Pearson, Elliott, Bille, Wagstaff, Pentz, etc.

On November 10, 2020, Paradise Town Council awarded master on-call contracts to Mark Thomas, Dokken Engineering, GHD, Inc., Wood Rodgers, Inc. and Dewberry Drake Haglan to perform on-call professional civil engineering services for a variety of local, state, and federallyfunded projects. Subsequently, in January 2021, task orders were issued to Mark Thomas, 1865
Dokken Engineering, and Wood Rodgers, Inc. to perform civil design services on the on-system road rehabilitation project.

The overall scope of work for the Project can be summarized as follows:
 Repair Camp Fire damaged on-system roads to achieve a pre-fire condition.

On June 14, 2022 Paradise Town Council awarded Contract No. 7303.1.CON, 2022 On-System Roadway Rehabilitation –Skyway (Project 1) to Baldwin Contracting Company, Inc. dba Knife River Construction in the amount of their base bid plus additive bid #1,$5,069,864.78.

A vicinity map of the town wide on-system road project limits, as well as the proposed 2023 project limits are provided in this Agenda Summary.

Analysis:

The on-system road rehabilitation project is consistent with priorities identified in the Paradise Long-Term Recovery Plan prepared in response to the 2018 Camp Fire and necessary to restore roadway infrastructure to a pre-fire condition.

Road rehabilitation projects will be identified based on utility undergrounding completion. As segments of utilities are nearing completion, the Town of Paradise will identify and bid specific segments of roadways as individual projects. The goal of this approach is to maximize efficiency, partnership and remain good stewards of precious public funds and community impacts by reducing excavations into recently rehabilitated roadways.

With Council approval of the plans and specifications and authorization to advertise for bids, staff proposes the following schedule:

Project No. 2 (2023) – Dean Road, Merrill Road, Wagstaff Road, Bille Road, Elliott Rd, Sawmill Road, Pearson Road, S Libby Road, Stearns Road, and Country Club Drive (8.5 miles).

Advertise for bid: November 2022
Award Contract: January 2023
Construction: Spring 2023
Future Projects – 2024-2025
Financial Impact:

FHWA Emergency Relief funds have been authorized as Advance Construction (AC) for the construction and construction engineering phases. Advance Construction is a project authorization technique that allows FHWA to authorize a project phase without obligating Federal funds. Projects authorized under Advance Construction procedures will not receive federal reimbursement until Federal funds become available and are obligated on a subsequent sequence. The Town will use local funds to perform the construction and construction engineering phases for future federal reimbursement. Emergency Relief AC funding is typically obligated as federal funds within 6 months following federal authorization to proceed.

The total estimated construction and construction engineering cost for on-system roads town wide is $51,935,200 and $8,8550,50.80 for the 2023 project. The estimated funding breakdown is shown below. A detailed project accounting description for each project bid will be made available at the time of contract award.

Through the Public Assistance Program, the Town of Paradise has been approved for $38,290,000 for the off-system road rehabilitation project. The approved project is located on “OffSystem” roads. Off-system roadway rehabilitation include roadways that are not on the on-system roadways and will be funded by FEMA.

On November 10, 2020, Paradise Town Council awarded master on-call contracts to Mark Thomas, Dokken Engineering, GHD, Inc., Wood Rodgers, Inc. and Dewberry Drake Haglan to perform on-call professional civil engineering services for a variety of local, state, and federallyfunded projects. Subsequently, in January 2021, task orders were issued to GHD, Dokken Engineering, and Dewberry to perform civil design services on the off-system road rehabilitation project.

Analysis:

During the design process, engineering design and code requirements required several modifications of the approved scope of work listed in the FEMA Public Assistance Project Worksheet. This cost-neutral scope change was submitted to CalOES and FEMA in March of 2022. The primary transmittal is attached to this Agenda Summary which explains the scope changes required, including approval of new road rehabilitation techniques, upgrades to pedestrian access ramps and monument preservation.

In recent weeks in coordination with CalOES and FEMA, a recommendation has been made for the Town to make a request for a conversion to an Improved Project in accordance with 44 CFR 206.203(d)(1), copied below:

Improved projects. If a subrecipient desires to make improvements, but still restore the predisaster function of a damaged facility, the recipient's approval must be obtained. Federal funding for such improved projects shall be limited to the Federal share of the approved estimate of eligible costs.

This designation would allow the Town and FEMA to avoid arduous reviews and clarifications on the requested scope change and move forward towards completion. The major caveat with an Improved Project is that in the event project work exceeds the original allocation amount, no additional funds may be awarded – meaning potential cost increases would be borne by the Town of Paradise. Unchanged, however, only incurred actual costs up to the approved amount could be reimbursed.

Staff has reviewed the impacts of this potential action and is requesting Council approval to formally request the Improved Project designation for this work effort. In forecasting future project implementation based on current construction costs and potential global economic changes, staff believes the risk associated with the action is outweighed by the benefits of streamlining the project process and scope revisions needed.

If approved, staff will submit the Improved Project request immediately aiming for a quick approval to ensure no delays are incurred in delivering the 2023 Off-System Paving Project.

Financial Impact:

The total estimated construction and construction engineering cost for off-system roads town wide is $38,290,000. The estimated funding breakdown is shown below.

Required matching funds, $2,393,125 (6.25%), are planned for approved Paradise Community Development Block Grant-Disaster Recovery Infrastructure fund allocations.

Finally, staff recommends the addition of a contingency fund using Paradise Community Development Block Grant-Disaster Recovery Infrastructure fund allocations. Based on recent grant award announcements, staff is planning a CDBG-DR Action Plan Amendment in December 2022 which will allow for additional projects to be funded – including increasing the fund’s commitment from just the minimum match requirement to include a $5M contingency reserve.

This reserve will offset the risk of an Improved Project designation in the event construction costs exceed original approved funding amounts.

Environmental Review:

The project is exempt under State CEQA Guidelines [Section 15269(a)], which states:

The following emergency projects are exempt from the requirements of CEQA. (a) Projects to maintain, repair, restore, demolish, or replace property or facilities damaged or destroyed as a result of a disaster in a disaster-stricken area in which a state of emergency has been proclaimed by the Governor pursuant to the California Emergency Services Act, commencing with Section 8550 of the Government Code.

Subject: Scope Change Request, FEMA-4407-DR-CA PA ID: 007-55520-00 Dear Mr. Gillings:

The Town of Paradise requests a scope of work change for the uncompleted permanent work under PW#363 as a result of the Camp Fire. PW#363 aims to repair surface and structural damage to “Off-System” (non-Federal Highways Administration/National Highway System) roadways in the Town of Paradise. This scope of work change does not increase the overall cost of the project. The following scope of work is currently included in the approved Project Report:
• Replace asphalt concrete pavement
• Replace of hot mix asphalt (.25' Depth)
• Replace of hot mix asphalt (Digouts w/.25' Depth )
• Replace of aggregate base
• Remove roadway
• Replace thermoplastic traffic stripe
• Replace Inductive loop detector
The proposed scope of work change includes the above list as well as the following items of work:
• Pavement Structural Section Repairs
o Full-Depth Reclamation – Cement
o Pulverized Roadbed
• ADA Curb Ramp Reconstruction
• Utility and Monument Adjustments
o Adjust Utilities/Monuments to Grade
o Re-establish Monument
Introduction
Since the Project Worksheet was approved, the Town has retained a team of highly qualified civil engineering team to prepare plans, specifications, and estimates for the off-system road rehabilitation project. Final plans, specifications and estimates were recently completed in January 2022. These plans were prepared with the benefit of proper design using supplemental topographic surveys and detailed geotechnical field investigations, which were not available when the original project was created. These critical items assisted the design process to ensure damage repair techniques are both efficient and effective. 1875
This letter aims to document the repair techniques to be utilized in the revised project, summarized below:

1. Pavement Structural Section Design – Additional geotechnical data has been gathered, including RValues and pavement cores for the various segments of roadways. Generally, R-Values were lower and pavement sections were thinner than what was assumed in original scope request. The road rehabilitation strategies changed as a result.

2. ADA Curb Ramp Reconstruction – Department of Justice requires all curb ramps to be upgraded to meet ADA standards in conjunction with pavement rehabilitation projects. This work was not included in the original scope.

3. Utility and Monument Adjustments – Paradise Irrigation District, a California Special Public Utility District has approximately 791 utility covers in the pavement structural section requiring adjustment during paving operations. The Town of Paradise also has town owned storm drain infrastructure requiring adjustment to accommodate paving operations. Additionally, monument protection and reestablishment, governed by Section 8771 and Section 8725 of the Business and Professions Code and Section 605 of the California Penal Code, need to be included as items of work.

Background
Due to the ongoing recovery effort and debris removal operations within the Town and Butte County, the Town’s roadway infrastructure sustained heavy damage in the wake of the Camp Fire. A vicinity map showing off-system road routes within the Town is included within Attachment 1.

As result of the Camp Fire, the pavement structural sections on Off-System roads were damaged in two major ways:

1. Pavement scarring due to vehicle fires – On the day of the Camp Fire, several motorists were required to abandon their vehicles and continue evacuating on foot. The subsequent vehicle fires damaged the pavement, justifying the need for repair.

2. Pavement structural section damage due to heavy truck traffic – Following the Camp Fire, the Town has experienced a staggering level of truck traffic. During the CALOES Debris Removal effort, over 3.7 million tons of material was removed, equivalent to approximately 300,000 truckloads. During that same period, PG&E, Comcast, and AT&T have restored the distribution infrastructure. PG&E has already removed over 92,000 trees, and an additional 100,000 trees were estimated for removal in 2020. The volume of trucks using the Town’s off-system roads has resulted in damage to the pavement structural section, justifying the need for rehabilitation.

Immediately following the Camp Fire, Town staff worked with FHWA and FEMA to develop a strategy for rehabilitation of all on-system and off-system roads within the Town limits. The direction was to demonstrate “visible evidence” of pavement damage related to the incident, specifically to capture damage due to debris hauling. In response, the Town has performed two road condition surveys. The first survey was performed in January 2019, and the second was performed in September 2019. The timing of the surveys was to document the pavement condition immediately following the fire and then provide evidence of damage after 8 months of intense hauling. The visual evidence suggests that all off-system roads need rehabilitation because of the Camp Fire and are eligible for Public Assistance and Emergency Relief Program funds through FEMA and FHWA, respectively.

The Town prepared a funding request to justify the pavement rehabilitation required for all off-system roads within the Town limits. The request included technical information requested by FEMA, including explicit criteria justifying full-depth pavement reconstruction (Digouts), traffic counts, and Traffic Index (TI) calculations. 1876
Based on the condition surveys, the most apparent evidence of pending pavement failure is due to increased cracking and rutting. An increase in the longitudinal and transverse cracking, with isolated areas of alligator cracking was observed when the two roadway surveys were compared. An increase in rutting, especially in the areas where trucks start and stop was also observed throughout the roadway network.

Based on the evidence provided by the road condition surveys and limited information regarding the existing soil conditions, the Town of Paradise proposed a rehabilitated pavement section including two primary components:
• Full Depth Pavement Reconstruction (Digouts) (3” Hot Mix Asphalt over 4” Aggregate Base) – Digouts will be constructed where changes in cracking and rutting are severe. • Cold Plane and Overlay (2” Cold Plane and 3” Hot Mix Asphalt Overlay) – The grind and overlay will be applied to the entire roadway surface (including digout locations).

When these treatment techniques were selected limited geotechnical data was available and the existing pavement structural sections were unknown. Given the timeframe required to submit the request within the PA program, detailed analysis was deferred to the preliminary engineering and design phase.

Item 1 - Pavement Repair Techniques including FDR and Pulverization Following the completion of required studies and design, critical factors were discovered which require a modified approach to pavement repairs, explained further below.

Traffic Volumes
The original funding application used traffic counts from BCAG’s Post Camp Fire Population Study conducted in November 2019. This scope change request proposes using average daily traffic estimates from BCAG’s regional traffic model developed 2017/2018 (pre-Camp Fire). While traffic volumes are slightly higher in the pre-Camp Fire estimates, the truck ratios are much lower than what was observed in the Post Camp Fire Population Study.

Traffic Index Calculations
Originally calculated TIs using traffic data from the Post Camp Fire Population Study ranged from 8.5 to

10.7. For funding estimate purposes, a TI of 8 was used for all off-system roads in the original funding application. A TI of 8 was intended to provide a resilient pavement section that would serve the town beyond the immediate recovery period.

During preparation of the geotechnical reports, it was observed that using a TI of 8 was too conservative for many of the low-volume off-system roads. The calculated TI’s, using the revised traffic volumes (precamp Fire) ranged from 5 to 7, lower than originally estimated. The reduced TI’s included in the final geotechnical reports helped off-set a portion of the construction cost increases discussed later in this memorandum.

Resistance Values (R Values)
When the original funding application as prepared, an R-Value of 23 was assumed based on available geotechnical testing provided by Butte County. As part of the 100% plans, detailed subsurface geotechnical investigations were performed, and the true R-values were determined. The calculated Rvalues ranged from 8 to 47. However, in order to reduce the number of pavement structural sections required for the project, the R-Values used for final design ranged from 15 to 30. Setting the minimum R-value to 15 resulted in a cost saving measure as well. 1877
After the geotechnical field investigations and lab analysis was complete, the pavement rehabilitation strategies proposed in the original project worksheet need to be expanded. In areas where the estimated digout surface area exceeds 20% of the total surface area of a logical roadway segment, the design team considered the use of Full Depth Reclamation (FDR) or pulverization in lieu of the pavement digout / overlay strategy. Roads with HMA or chip seal surfaces that were less than 0.15 feet thick and are supported on either subgrade soils or relatively thin sections of AB are not suitable for FDR, therefore pulverization was the selected roadway rehabilitation treatment.

Within these roadway segments, the cost of constructing the digouts would be equivalent to or more expensive than placing FDR or pulverizing for the following reasons:
• Labor costs for saw cutting, excavating, placing material, and compaction are eliminated. • Construction process for FDR or pulverization reduces contract working days • Reduced working days results in lower traffic control costs and minimizes disturbance to the travelling public.

The Town understands the need to avoid betterments under the FEMA Public Assistance program. The use of FDR or pulverization will provide a superior product when compared to the digouts for a reduced cost. The proposal for FDR and pulverization was considered very carefully by Town staff and the civil engineering team, and it was determined these strategies represented the most efficient and effective use of critical funding.

Item 2 - ADA Curb Ramp Reconstruction
Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that state and local governments ensure that persons with disabilities have access to the pedestrian routes in the public right of way. An important part of this requirement is the obligation whenever streets, roadways, or highways are altered to provide compliant curb ramps where street level pedestrian walkways cross curbs. This requirement is intended to ensure the accessibility and usability of the pedestrian walkway for persons with disabilities.

Based on guidance from the Department of Justice and Department of Transportation dated July 8, 2013 (See Attachment 5), curb ramps shall be included or upgraded to current standards in conjunction with pavement rehabilitation projects. It is the responsibility of the Town to meet these requirements and remain compliant with Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act . This work was not included in the original funding 1878
documentation. The Town’s civil engineering team prepared ADA Assessment memorandums (See Attachment 4) to document existing conditions, non-compliant curb ramps, and identify construction costs. This scope change request to upgrade ramps to meet current standards does not increase the overall funding request, due to cost saving measure discussed previously in this memorandum.

Item 3 - Utility and Monument Adjustments
Paradise Irrigation District, a California Special Public Utility District has approximately 791 utility covers in the pavement structural section. The off-system road rehabilitation project work necessitates the adjustment of PIDs utility lids below grade (for milling operations) and back to new finished grade following the installation of the roadway treatment. PID is a special public utility district eligible to receive FEMA funding and was also impacted by the Camp Fire. Correspondence with Cal OES on February 16, 2022 indicated that PID utility adjustments are a FEMA reimbursable eligible expense. Further, the Town of paradise owns and maintains storm drain infrastructure. These covers will also require adjustment to accommodate paving operations and have been included in this scope change request.

Section 8771 and section 8725 of the Business and Professions Code and Section 605 of the California Penal Code governs perpetuating, preserving and re-establishing all survey monumentation. Any monuments to be disturbed as a result of construction activities, will require re-establishment under the direction of a Licensed Surveyor. Monuments located in existing well, will require adjustments to grade, similar to the above utilities.

This scope change request to adjust utilities and monuments does not increase the overall funding request, due to cost saving measure discussed previously in this memorandum.

Summary
Leadership from the Town of Paradise, Caltrans, FHWA, FEMA and CalOES have been working together closely to ensure the Camp Fire recovery is a success. Repairing the Town’s roadway network is critical to this objective.

These repairs must be completed as soon as possible and sequenced in the recovery to prevent further damage and costs to the recovery.

We hope this letter provides a clear justification for the scope of work change request. For the sake of consistency amongst other federal recovery partners, a comparable modification request was made to FWHA and subsequently approved on October 7, 2021. This approved request did expand the repair techniques available for the project.

If you would like to meet or require additional information, please let us know. Thank you for effort in helping rebuild Paradise.

This scope of work change request applies to the project listed below according to the FEMA Grants Portal project number:

Background:

Due to the ongoing recovery effort and debris removal operations within the Town and Butte County, the Town’s off-system roadway infrastructure sustained heavy damage in the wake of the Camp Fire. The pavement structural sections were damaged in two ways:

1. Pavement Scarring due to Car Fires – On the day of the Camp Fire, several motorists were required to abandon their vehicles and continue evacuating on foot. The subsequent car fires damaged the pavement, justifying the need for repair.

2. Pavement Structural Section Damage due to Heavy Truck Traffic – Following the Camp Fire, the Town has experienced a staggering level of truck traffic. During the CALOES Debris Removal effort, over 3.7 million tons of material was removed, equivalent to approximately 300,000 truckloads. During that same period, PG&E, Comcast, and AT&T have restored the distribution infrastructure. PG&E has already removed over 92,000 trees, and an additional 100,000 trees are estimated for removal in 2020. The volume of trucks using the Town’s on-system roads has resulted in damage to the pavement structural section, justifying the need for rehabilitation.

The Town coordinated with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to secure Public Assistance permanent restoration funding to repair damaged off-system roads town wide.

Through the Public Assistance Program, the Town of Paradise has been approved for $38,290,000 for the off-system road rehabilitation project. The approved project is located on “OffSystem” roads. Off-system roadway rehabilitation include roadways that are not on the on-system roadways and will be funded by FEMA.

On November 10, 2020, Paradise Town Council awarded master on-call contracts to Mark Thomas, Dokken Engineering, GHD, Inc., Wood Rodgers, Inc. and Dewberry Drake Haglan to perform on-call professional civil engineering services for a variety of local, state, and federallyfunded projects. Subsequently, in January 2021, task orders were issued to GHD, Dokken Engineering, and Dewberry to perform civil design services on the off-system road rehabilitation project.
1881
The overall scope of work for the Project can be summarized as follows:
 Repair Camp Fire damaged off-system roads to achieve a pre-fire condition.

A vicinity map of the town wide off-system road project limits, as well as the proposed 2023 project limits are provided in this Agenda Summary.

Analysis:

The off-system road rehabilitation project is consistent with priorities identified in the Paradise Long-Term Recovery Plan prepared in response to the 2018 Camp Fire and necessary to restore roadway infrastructure to a pre-fire condition.

Road rehabilitation projects will be identified based on utility undergrounding completion. As segments of utilities are nearing completion, the Town of Paradise will identify and bid specific segments of roadways as individual projects. The goal of this approach is to maximize efficiency, partnership and remain good stewards of precious public funds and community impacts by reducing excavations into recently rehabilitated roadways.

With Council approval of the plans and specifications and authorization to advertise for bids, staff proposes the following schedule:

Project No. 1 (2023) – 12.5 miles
Advertise for bid: December 2022
Award Contract: February 2023

Yes, Tier 1 – Multiple
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED:

Upon conclusion of public discussion of the findings of the Transportation Master Plan supplemental Honey Run Road analysis, relating to the Honey Run Road reopening, consider a resolution, or an alternative action:

1. Consider adopting Town of Paradise Resolution No. 2022-____, “A Resolution of the Town Council of the Town of Paradise expressing a desire to reopen Honey Run Road between Town Limits and Honey View Terrace as a Historical Community Route with vehicular speed, weight, and length restrictions;” or

2. Provide alternative action (ROLL CALL VOTE)
Background:

Funded by a United States Economic Development Administration (EDA) grant, the Town of Paradise (Town) has developed the Town of Paradise Transportation Management Plan (TMP).

Approved by the Town Council in 2022, the TMP is a comprehensive effort to evaluate transportation and economic needs and develop recommendations to support recovery following the 2018 Camp Fire. The TMP included extensive public engagement and ranges in topics including daily and emergency evacuation traffic needs, transportation safety, active transportation, economic analysis, community design standards, engineering details and reestablishment of survey monuments and benchmarks.

The compiled TMP includes reports and plans developed through the EDA grant, that will guide the Town’s Camp Fire recovery by recommending transportation initiatives and strategies consistent with the Town of Paradise Long Term Community Recovery Plan (LTCRP) and updates.

The supplemental tasks to the TMP included an analysis of the alternatives to Honey Run Road for consideration in evaluating the re-opening of the roadway.

Due to safety impacts on the roadway following the 2018 Camp Fire, Honey Run Road has remained closed post-fire. Although the historic road was already in poor condition due to lack of funding for maintenance, it’s historic nature, and limited access pre-fire, the roadway was further impacted by post-fire hazardous tree removal and associated heavy equipment loading on the road. As the Town performed studies and sought funding to repair roadways, Honey Run 1888
2 Road remained open within Butte Creek Canyon in Butte County limits only, where the roadway was not impacted.

In alignment with the Long-Term Community Recovery Plan (LTCRP), the Transportation Master Plan (TMP) surveyed the community to determine the desired use of Honey Run Road. Reopening Honey Run Road was identified as the priority (with safety improvements of approximately $80,000, which garnered 63% of the responses), over the other presented alternatives (restrictions on lanes (13%), limit direction of travel (13%), full road closure (6%), “other” (6%)).

Staff engaged the Transportation Master Plan consultants to prepare a memorandum presenting the improvements that could be made to increase safety on Honey Run Road. Initially, the team evaluated the minimal safety improvements in the estimated range of $80,000. This option included evaluation of guardrail at the five narrowest sections of Honey Run Road within the Town limits. The repaving costs already funded in the Off System Roads project were not included in the cost estimate; the Off System Road repaving separately rehabilitates Honey Run Road to pre-fire widths of approximately nine feet of travelled way, through the FHWA funded project (2023 Town Paving Plan). Although establishing guardrail at these five narrow sections would increase safety in those roadway cross sections only and is in alignment with the survey response and estimated costs, these minimal improvements are not feasible due to current standards for guardrail termination/safety. Sufficient length and width on the roadway are required to terminate the guardrail before and after the narrow sections. This is required to ensure the guardrail is not a safety hazard. Thus, the desired, minimal improvement of $80,000 was determined by Staff to be infeasible due to the additional improvements and costs that are necessary for increased guardrail lengths and roadway width improvements it would trigger to maintain two-way traffic (guardrail would narrow the road without additional wall/embankment improvements and costs).

Staff directed the TMP consultants to evaluate additional alternatives to compare to re-opening Honey Run in its existing condition. These alternatives are presented in the Honey Run TMP memorandum.

To meet current roadway design and safety requirements, the following options were presented:

Alternative Roadway Option Estimated Cost Stakeholder Support

1. Two-Way Roadway $6.1M Yes

2. One-Way Southbound Only Roadway $4.4M No

3. Emergency Roadway Only $4.4M No

4. Motor Vehicle Traffic Prohibited $1.9M No
The alternatives presented are significantly more expensive than the community identified desire to re-open Honey Run road with an investment of $80,000 (estimated at the time of the survey, which included guardrail at only the narrow sections). It was determined by Staff that the costs in the alternatives are not in alignment with the survey responses received and level of investment desired by the community, and the alternatives are not supported by other 1889
3 stakeholders (County residents, Butte County Public Works, Cal Fire, Paradise Police Department). Additionally, it should be noted that the Town staff heard from the biking community via Chico Velo, who utilizes Honey Run Road as a cycling route, that their preference was to limit local traffic by establishing two-way bicycle traffic only, or two-way bicycle traffic with emergency vehicle access. These suggested options did not have stakeholder support at the Town, County or other stakeholder level, and were not carried forward, but are feasible to pursue if additional support for these options were presented by project stakeholders.

On October 11, 2022, Paradise Town Council heard staff updates and public comments on the issue and directed staff to continue forward and request Butte County partner with the Town for the proposed resolution adoption for the Honey Run corridor between Merlin Lane and Town Limits as well as a collaborative approach to properly install signage regulating size, weight and speed restrictions of the roadway.

Analysis:

Following direction given by the Paradise Town Council on October 11, 2022, staff immediately contacted Butte County Public Works to explore feasibility of a concurrent action by the County Board of Supervisors. Butte County Public Works indicated a strong commitment to work with Town staff and install specialty advanced signage, including turnaround warnings for large trucks, to protect the safety of all roadway users. Butte County also indicated their section of Honey Run Road does not require a special designation due to the potential of setting unnecessary precedence in comparison to other active County roads.

With this information in mind, staff proposes the following course of action:

1. Paradise Town Council adopts a resolution expressing a desire to reopen Honey Run Road between Town Limits and Honey View Terrace as a Historical Community Route with vehicular speed, weight, and length restrictions

2. Town of Paradise finalizes bid packages to advertise planned road rehabilitation, including Honey Run Road between Town Limits and Honey View Terrace

3. Paradise and Butte County Public Works collaboratively design and install a series of signs leading to entrances of the Honey Run corridor between Merlin Lane and Honey View Terrace which provide opportunities for turnarounds, advanced warning and regulations of speed, weight and length restrictions

4. Town of Paradise performs road rehabilitation activities

5. Paradise and Butte County jointly reopen Honey Run Road, estimated mid-2023. 1890
4 Environmental Analysis:

The Town of Paradise Transportation Master Plan is considered exempt from CEQA pursuant to Public Resources Code 21080(b)(3) Projects undertaken, carried out, or approved by a public agency to maintain, repair, restore, demolish, or replace property or facilities damaged or destroyed as a result of a disaster in a disaster-stricken area in which a state of emergency has been proclaimed by the Governor pursuant to Chapter 7 (commencing with Section 8550) of Division 1 of Title 2 of the Government Code.

Financial Impact:

There is no financial impact by passing this Resolution. Existing Town Staff will implement the Resolution within the FHWA funded and locally matched Off System Roadway repaving project. 1891

MEMORANDUM
To: Marc Mattox, PE Project No.: SA-21111
Cc: Ashley Stanley, PE
From: Paul Martin, PE, TE
Date: September 16, 2022
RE: Honey Run Roadway Alternatives Evaluation
As requested by the Town of Paradise, we have prepared this memorandum discussing the current conditions of Honey Run Road and engineering considerations to re-open the roadway to public use following the 2018 Camp Fire.

Study Area
Honey Run Road parallels Skyway, traveling within Butte Creek Canyon and adjacent to Butte Creek, before ascending in grade to the elevated ridge area where the Town of Paradise is located. Honey Run Road traverses a length of approximately 9.75 miles between Skyway in unincorporated Butte County near State Route 99 (SR-99), at its west end, and Skyway in the Town of Paradise north of Pearson Road, at its east end. The westerly 6.5 miles of the roadway parallels the creek with gentle curves and minor grades. Around mile 6.5, the roadway narrows, and the centerline striping is omitted to convey slower travel speeds and heightened caution for opposing traffic.

The roadway begins to rise in grade higher than Little Butte Creek as it ascends towards the Town of Paradise with curves becoming sharper and more frequent. Around 8.0 miles, the roadway enters the Town of Paradise, and around mile 9.75, Honey Run terminates at Skyway north of Pearson Road. This memorandum focuses on the

1.75-mile length of Honey Run within the Town of Paradise. Refer to Attachment A showing the project study location.

Current Roadway Layout
Honey Run Road before the Camp Fire typically has provided for two-way vehicular travel linking unincorporated Butte County with the Town of Paradise. The roadway is historically popular with cyclists given the length, natural beauty, and low motor vehicle traffic volumes.

Honey Run Road is an older roadway and has not been constructed to modern engineering standards; as a result, it is typically lacking the following elements:

1. Structural base under the asphalt paving.

2. Guardrails to minimize severity of potential errant vehicles leaving the roadway. Note that prior to the Camp Fire, trees provided a de-facto guardrail treatment. These trees were impacted by the fire or post fire hazard removal and are no longer providing slope stabilization or protection from leaving the roadway.

3. Graded or paved shoulders.

4. Motorist turnaround areas to change direction.

5. Wider roadway areas for passing of stopped, parked, or immobilized vehicles. 1892
2 OF 9
There is currently a soft closure in effect via signage at the intersection of Honey Run Road and Honey View Terrace within the Town of Paradise, for traffic leaving town and traveling westerly towards Butte County. The road closure is in place due to the Camp Fire impacts to the road and trees. Since the roadway has been signed as closed, typical daily traffic volumes cannot be measured.
