What You Need To Know
Because of levee and dam improvements, most of the City is outside the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). While
these dams and levees provide us excellent protection,
they are still subject to failure and any property in the City remains at risk of flooding.
Sacramento’s vast floodplain and flood risk are due to our proximity to the Sacramento and American Rivers, as well as our local creeks and streams, and drainage systems
which rely on pumps to drain properly. In the past 36
years, areas of the City have been subject to significant flooding — most notably in 1986, 1987 and 1997. This risk of flooding means that it is important that you and your
family protect yourself and your property against flooding.
The SFHA, as designated by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency, represents the 100-year regulatory
floodplain. This means that in any given year, your
property has greater than a 1-in-100 chance of flooding.
But all homes, in and out of the SFHA, are subject to
floods.
Flood Insurance – Are You Covered?
For many of us, our home and its contents are our greatest investment, so it is important to realize that standard homeowners and renters insurance policies do not cover losses due to flooding. You are encouraged to buy flood insurance – whether or not your home is located within the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). Effective October 1, 2021, FEMA's National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) has implemented Risk Rating
2.0 policy rating methodology. Premiums are determined based on an individual property's flood risk. Individuals will pay based on multiple factors including flood risk variables, rebuilding costs and valuation of homes.
Also, Communities will continue to earn National Flood Insurance Program rate discounts of 5% - 45% based on the Community Rating System classification. The discount will be uniformly applied to all policies throughout the participating community, regardless of whether the structure is in the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA).
Remember, you don’t need to live in the SFHA to be affected by flooding. In fact, 30% of all claims occur outside the SFHA.
Recent levee improvements have reduced but not eliminated the flood risk to our community. Be sure to insure your property and its contents. There is a 30-day waiting period for most flood insurance policies to take effect. If you are buying a home and need flood insurance, purchase the insurance before the close of escrow, so the policy will go into effect at the close of escrow.
Whether it is required or not, property owners in flood-prone areas should always consider flood insurance as their first and last line of defense in protecting their family and property. Call your insurance agent or the National Flood Insurance Program at (800) 427-4661 to get your policy before the winter rains! Residents can also contact the City's Floodplain Information Line, (916) 808-5061, for general flood insurance information.
How Does the City Know a Flood is Coming?
The California Data Exchange Center (CDEC) provides a
centralized location to store and process real-time water level information gathered by various cooperators throughout the State including the City’s Automated Local Evaluation in Real Time (ALERT) gauges located on City creeks. The CDEC can be used to signal us about possible flooding. CDEC provides continuous reports from river, creek, and rainfall gauges online at www.cdec.water.ca.gov. With it, we can receive advanced warning of impending high water levels.
Know the Warnings
In case of a flooding emergency, the City may use different means to alert you to the situation and possible evacuation routes. •EME RGENCY ALERTS
Sacramento Emergency Communications Personnel will
use the Everbridge system to alert residents via phone or email if there is a need to evacuate. Listen carefully to the information and instructions provided to get help if you need assistance evacuating. To sign up for Everbridge
alerts, please visit: www.Sacramento-Alert.org.
•Listen for Sirens. In the case of an emergency, police and fi rst officials will use their sirens and loudspeakers to alert you to necessary information about the emergency.
•Turn On TV or Radio. During large storm events, turn on a television set or radio and tune to a local station to find out information about emergency and evacuation routes. The
emergency broadcast station for Sacramento is KFBK Radio 1530-AM.
Planning Ahead
Follow these tips to help your family be prepared in case of flooding.
1. Buy flood insurance. Know your insurance policies – what is covered and what isn’t.
2. Create a family emergency plan. Check out
www.ready.gov/plan for tips on what to plan for and a plan template.
3. Be familiar with the routes in and out of your
neighborhood in case you need to evacuate. Remember to
check TV or radio to find the preferred route out of your area before you leave your home.
4. Keep all of your important paperwork, including
insurance policies and birth certificates in a safe
place such as a deposit box, or get “tech ready” by having documents saved to a password-protected flash drive
or cloud storage. If you keep them at home, be sure to take them with you when you leave your house.
5. Find the high points in and around your home. If you are caught in a flood, stay out of the water if at all possible. Do not drive through flooded streets. Even shallow water can have a deadly current and may be contaminated. When
moving to upper floors, roof or higher ground, be sure to take your emergency supplies with you.
6. Teach children to dial 9-1-1 in case of emergency.
7. If you live in an area that is frequently flooded, keep sandbags, plywood, plastic sheeting and lumber on hand.
DO NOT stack sandbags against your
building’s foundation.
8. Consider improvements to your property, such as
grading or correcting drainage problems
that will help keep water away from your
structure.9. Keep areas open between homes, property lines, and levees.
10. For individuals with disabilities or medical
conditions, review FEMA’s additional preparedness
steps at
https://www.ready.gov/individuals-access-functional-needs.
Help Us Help You
There are several things that you can do to help the City. Make sure to properly dispose of yard waste in containers provided by the City. Remember illegal dumping is against the law. Keep drain inlets, drainage ditches and canals clear of junk and debris, and report any illegally dumped materials to the City by calling 311 or (916) 264-5011. Also, during a storm event, if you see a storm drain backing up, please call 311.
To find out if your home is located within the SFHA, floodway, in or around historic flooding, or additional hazards,
please contact the City’s Floodplain Information line at fl[email protected] or (916) 808-5061. A City representative will respond to your request within two business days. Floodplain maps and filed list of elevation certificates can be found at our City DOU website and can be requested through our information line or email: fl[email protected].
Get a permit before you start construction. Remember, all floodplain development and redevelopment, including grading, building and retrofitting, requires a permit. If you know of a non- permitted development project, please contact the City at (916) 264-5011 or 311.
Note: In SFHA zones A, AE, AH, and AO, if the cost of
reconstruction, rehabilitation, addition or other improvements to a structure is more than 50% of the building’s market value, then the structure must meet the same structural requirements as a new structure. This standard also applies to our local Magpie Creek floodplain. Technical assistance for retrofitting homes and additional information can be obtained from the Floodplain Information Line at fl[email protected] or
(916) 808-5061.

Floodplain Protection
While flooding is a natural hazard in the Sacramento area, it is important to protect our waterways and the environment.
Floodplains can provide valuable wildlife habitat and are a natural part of Sacramento. Understanding and protecting the natural functions of floodplains helps reduce flooding damage and protect our environment. The City of Sacramento is part of the Sacramento Stormwater Quality Partnership. The
Partnership educates the public about illegal dumping into our waterways and stormwater pollution prevention. For more information, please call (916) 808-4H2O (808-4426) or visit www.beriverfriendly.net.
In addition to the American and Sacramento Rivers, several waterways traverse the City. These include Steelhead Creek (Natomas East Main Drainage Canal), Arcade Creek, Magpie Creek, Robla Creek, Morrison Creek, Florin Creek, Elder Creek, Strawberry Creek, Unionhouse Creek, Laguna Creek,
Sacramento Canals, Pocket Area Canals, and
Hagginwood Creek.

Levee Patrol:
The best defense against flood related issues and or levee failure Is to identify problems early and repair them immediately. Biannual levee inspections and effective high patrolling make this possible.
- Operate under the SEMS / ICS system and report to the Operations Section Chief. - Each patrol vehicle to have a copy of the Flood Fight Methods handbook. - Assign no less than two staff members to each patrol vehicle. - Assign each patrol vehicle an area no larger than can be inspected at least every two hours with more frequent patrols as conditions warrant. Foot patrols may offer a more thorough inspection.
- Identify potential problems: boils, seepage, erosion, cracks, sloughing, and rodent damage.
- Patrol vehicles should remain on high ground in threatened areas, always know your escape routes and pass on to responders.
Procedure: Levee Patrol SOP
- Communicate with patrol staff frequently.
- Be aware of the locations of stockpiled flood fighting materials. - Report all issues to the Supervisor in charge or the Operations Section Chief. - Fill out levee condition logs and turn in at the end of every shift to the supervisor.
Levee Patrol Responsibilities:
- Each crew should leave with a plan of action for their shift. - Make sure equipment is fueled prior to each shift.
- Record gauge readings (see attachment for locations and log sheet) - Inspect fences on the riverside of the levee, keep free of debris - Inspect access roads and ramps are usable and clear of debris. - Take photographs of all significant issues. Upload to inspection data base, email to supervisor immediately if an emergency. (Use date and time stamp with GPS locations) - Complete levee condition log when an issue is located. Call supervisor immediately. - Look for sand boils or unusual wet areas landward of the landside toe. - Look for seepage on the landside levee.
- Look for slides or sloughs in levee slopes.
- Look for wave wash or scouring of the waterside slope. - Look for low areas in the levee crown.
- Look for down or uprooted trees and vegetation.
- Monitor relief wells (see attachment)
- Monitor phisometers (see attachment)
- Inspect flap and sluice gates for proper closure
- Inspect stop logs and flood gates if installed.
- Inspect flood walls for movement or cracking.
- Inspect pump stations.
- Inspect known areas of seepage.
- Inspect areas with high rodent activity.

Levee Patrol Safety:
- Patrolling is the key to effective flood fighting. Patrols will identify, initiate control, and monitor trouble spots in effected areas. Vehicle patrols should travel in two-person teams with dependable communication devices. Lifelines, flotation devices and a blanket should be in the vehicle for possible water related accidents. Foot patrols should also have the same considerations. Extreme caution should be exercised when travelling saturated, cracking, or sloughing areas.
- Vehicle placement in work areas along the levee should remain parked on high ground.
This is usually the crown of the levee. Vehicles should be parked facing their access point. An escape plan should be communicated to all flood workers. - Changing weather patterns can affect existing conditions and create more serious situations. Always know the forecast and how it affects vulnerable areas, workers, and the public.
- Changing water patterns can change the rise and fall of water gradually or very quickly.
Knowledge of high water and how it relates to levees, communities and workers is essential. Continuous monitoring and communication of water level influences, reservoir releases, tides and drainage inflow are very important, always know your area and flood history around you.
- Swift water and high velocities of water are common during flood events. Extreme caution should be used when anyone is exposed to high water. Workers should have flotation devises, throw ropes and lifelines in the immediate area. Swift water rescue teams may be available. Use common sense and sound judgement around swift water.
Know your resources and how to activate them prior to the event.
Procedure: Levee Patrol SOP
- Insect and animal exposure in flooded areas force a variety of animals to evacuate to high ground. Workers in these areas should be aware of these animals and not handle them. Stinging and biting insects are prominent in certain flood prone areas. - Contamination of flooded areas can potentially carry high levels of contaminates.
Common contaminates include fuel, sewage, and pesticides. Always wear protective clothing to help limit contact with water.
- Exhaustion and stress combined with long, physical demanding hours can have an adverse effect on the flood worker. It is very important to recognize exhaustion or sleep deprivation and treat them immediately. Shift rotation will help eliminate fatigue factors.
- If levee inspections via boat or transporting materials and personnel to worksites are needed, Operators of watercraft must be certified. Flotation devices must be available for every passenger. Extreme caution must be taken while loading and offloading. (See Vessel SOP for more requirements)

Observation Well Inspection:
All elevations referenced in this section are in NAVD88 Datum and measured in relation to the gauge at I St. bridge in the Sacramento River. The river stage elevation measured at the I St. bridge will determine the timing of the implementation of monitoring the observation wells, during a flood emergency, the following steps are to be taken by the LMA.
The LMA is responsible for high water monitoring of the observation wells 48 to 72 hours before the Sacramento River at I St. bridge reaches 21.37 Ft. and continue 48 to 72 hours following the return of river stage below 21.37. Observation will be conducted in 12 hr. intervals.
Construction of a slurry cutoff wall in the City of Sacramento levee between Miller Park and Sutterville Rd. observation wells were placed in various locations along the slurry cutoff wall.
The observation wells monitor seepage from the water side levee to through the cutoff wall to the landside levee.
Maintenance of the observation wells shall include determining individual sediment levels annually, by measuring from the top of the PVC riser to the sediment in the slotted interval.
Ensure the well is capped between readings and the cap is vented with a 1/8 th inch diameter air
hole. No fluids such as antifreeze or preparations designed to lubricate the inside of the riser pipe shall be introduced not any observation well. These types of fluids can damage the watertight joints promote clogging of the slotted interval and introduce contaminates into the groundwater. Any well observed with signs of tampering or vandalism should be measured for depth and checked for obstructions.
Monitoring:
- When the Sacramento River at I St. bridge reaches 21.37 Ft. the LMA will start monitoring the observation wells every 12 hrs.
- Locate and stake the wells for staff.
- All observation well readings shall be referenced from the top of the PVC riser pipe - Remove observation well lid.
- Remove PVC cap.
- Use the phisometer to measure down to the top of water and record the elevation on the observation well log. Complete log completely with all information. (see log) - Place cap back on PVC pipe and set lid back on well.
- Clean phisometer.
- Check surroundings for visual signs of levee distress such as cracking, sloughing and settlement.
- Check for seepage emerging at or above the landside toe. - Check for saturation and or development of boils near the landside toe.
Procedure: Levee Patrol SOP
- Check for sudden or rapid rise of water levels in the landside observation wells. (6 inches in a 12hr period)
- Report all issues immediately to the Operations Section Chief or Supervisor.
If any of the following conditions are noted, they should be reported immediately to the chief of emergency management division 916-557-6919 and the chief geotechnical branch 916-557-7197.

Relief Well Monitoring and Inspection:
All elevations referenced in this section are in NAVD88 Datum and measured in relation to the gauge at I St. bridge in the Sacramento River. The river stage elevation measured at the I St. bridge will determine the timing of the implementation of monitoring the relief wells, during a flood emergency, the following steps are to be taken by the LMA.
The purpose of the relief wells is to relieve pressure in shallow, silty and sand layer beneath the levee thereby preventing future boils. As the water level rises during flood events, under seepage will collect in the relief wells. When the water level in the relief wells rises above the top of the well, the over top flow will exit the well into the discharge pipe. Pilot holes were drilled prior to relief well installation to determine the depth, slotted interval, filter pack gradation, and slot diameter of each individual well.
Inspection and Reading:
- When the water surface elevation reaches monitor stage, begin monitoring the relief wells.
- Relief wells will only flow during flood events during the flood season, normally between October 15
th to April 30th. During the dry season it is recommended that the relief wells be inspected once every 3 months.
- Remove manhole cover, grate or lid, and inspect well for water flowing out of the top of pipe.
- If water is flowing or not flowing mark this on the relief well log report. - Complete all information needed on the relief well log completely. - If water is flowing inspect for sediment. If sediment is present mark this on the log and notify the Operations Section Chief or the Supervisor immediately. - Water surface measurements from the top of pipe to the top of water could be monitored if this information is requested.
- Look for unusual settlement, sloughing or material loss of grade of the ground or embankment in or around the wells.
- Look for relief well lid is clearly marked with relief well number. - Look for caving or erosion under or near the concrete pads due to rodents or surface run off.
- Look for seepage, saturated or green areas in the vicinity. - Look for rodent activity or debris in the relief well chamber or discharge pipe. - Look for bending or other damage to the discharge pipe or well casing.
If any of the above items are noted, corrective action should be taken to prevent potential damage to and or loss of efficiency of the wells. Settlement, sloughing, caving, erosion or saturated areas should be evaluated further to determine cause.
Procedure: Levee Patrol SOP
The wells should be sounded for total depth and ground water level once per year, preferably right before flood season. The water level of river or creek should also be recorded at the same time for comparison purposes. Comparison of the depth readings over multiple years will indicate the amount and rate of siltation in the relief wells.
All water level and flow data for the relief wells should be on a spread sheet and plotted.
Plotting the data facilitates observation of patterns in how the water level or flow rate in the relief wells compares with the water level in the river or creeks and historical storm events. A major change in relief well water levels or flow rates in relation to the river or creek water levels should be investigated.
Pumping test:
USACE Engineering regulation states that relief wells should be pump tested every 5 years. If a major change in relief well water levels or flow rates in relation to the local water surface elevation is noted, then it is recommended that a pump test be performed on the effected wells regardless of the time since the previous pump test.
Pre-Flood Season Maintenance:
- Visually inspect wells or valves to make sure they are closed, and no sediment or debris has entered the system.
- If evidence of rodent intrusion is discovered during inspection of the relief well chamber, it is recommended that the discharge pipe be flushed. - If manhole cover and locks are cut or vandalized, then the locks should be replaced immediately to prevent relief well vandalism and future well damage. - Excessive siltation may result in decreased well efficiency, the wells are constructed with a 3 to 5-foot-long silt trap at the bottom, beneath the slotted interval. It is recommended that the sediment be removed from the well if more than 1 ft. has accumulated. In no instance should sediment be allowed to accumulate such that it blocks any part of the screened interval.
- Oil locks and hinges.
- Repair, paint, re-label as needed.
- Spray and keep vegetation clear from relief wells.

Dear Mr. Tibbitts:
Kleinfelder has been tasked by the Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency (SAFCA) with evaluating the seismic vulnerability of the Sacramento area levees located in Sacramento and Sutter Counties, California in support of the Urban Levee of Protection (ULOP) (DWR, 2013) level certification effort. For the evaluation, the Sacramento area levees have been divided into three areas [North Area Streams (NAS), Natomas Basin, and American River South Levee System (ARSLS)], and the seismic risk in each area was evaluated following the Urban Levee Design Criteria (DWR, 2012). which were compared to criteria. A separate Seismic Performance Summary Report has been prepared for each of the three areas. MBK assisted Kleinfelder by working with SAFCA to identify potential borrow source locations and provide a brief discussion of where these sources are located.
The purpose of this Post-Earthquake Remediation Plan (PERP) is to present the anticipated effects of a seismic event on the levee segments found to have medium to high seismic vulnerability and includes general procedures for the interim and long term remediation of cracked and slumped levee sections after a seismic event. A general discussion of the PERP is contained in the report with an Appendix for

1 INTRODUCTION
___________________________________________________________________________________
Kleinfelder has been tasked by the Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency (SAFCA) with evaluating the seismic vulnerability of the Sacramento area levees located in Sacramento and Sutter Counties, California that fall under SAFCA’s jurisdiction in support of the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) Urban Level of Protection (ULOP) (DWR, 2013) certification effort. The ULOP requires levees be evaluated for seismic vulnerability in accordance with Section 7.7 Seismic Vulnerability of the DWR Urban Levee Design Criteria (ULDC) (DWR, 2012) and that levees with moderate or high vulnerability have a Post-Earthquake Remediation Plan (PERP) in place to repair the levee in the event of an earthquake that damages the levee.
For the evaluation, the Sacramento area levees have been divided into three areas displayed on the Figure 1 site map - North Area Streams (NAS), American River South Levee System (ARSLS), and Natomas Basin (NB). The seismic risk in each area was evaluated following the ULDC. A separate Seismic Performance Summary Report (SPSR) has been prepared for each of the three areas and the results of the SRPS reports were used as the basis for the damages addressed in this plan.
The purpose of the PERP is to present the anticipated effects of a seismic event on the levee segments found to have medium to high seismic vulnerability and includes general procedures for the interim and long term remediation of cracked and slumped levee sections after that seismic event. A general discussion of anticipated damages and repair activities is contained in the main portion of the PERP with a separate Appendix for each of the three basins that contains estimates of the type and extent of damage expected to affect the levee and the approximate quantity of earth material needed to restore the levees as required by the ULDC.
The PERP addresses considerations identified in Section 7.7.1 Intermittently Loaded Levees 1 of the
ULDC, which are presented below.
• An estimate is to be developed of the general magnitude and locations of damage expected throughout the levee system along with the amounts and locations of material needed to restore the levee system’s grade and dimensions (e.g., appropriate crown width – such as 20 feet along
1 The subject levees are classified by the Urban Levee Evaluation Project (ULE) (URS, 2015a, 2015b, 2015c) as intermittently loaded, as they do not experience a water surface elevation of one foot or higher above the elevation of the levee toe at least once a day for more than 36 days per year on average.

a major stream – and 3h:1v levee slopes) sufficient for protection against the 10-year flood, with 3 feet of freeboard.
• The interim repairs would need to restore 10-year grade and dimensions within 8 weeks or less to avoid prolonged exposure of the community during flood season. • The long term repairs would need to restore a 200-year level of flood protection. • Borrow areas and/or stockpiles that could easily provide the materials needed for interim and long term repairs need to be identified. Such materials should meet the levee fill requirements of the USACE Sacramento District’s Geotechnical Levee Practice Standard Operating Procedures. • Haul routes for fill placement need to be identified. • Slope protection for the newly placed fill needs to be included. • To the extent that seismic damage to the levee system would be so significant and widespread that it would be infeasible to restore 10-year grade and dimensions within eight weeks, seismic strengthening is required to provide the urban level of flood protection. • The public should be informed as quickly as possible after a damaging earthquake as to system damages and the resulting interim level of protection that will be provided.
The PERP provides an initial estimate of the amount and extent of damage that might be sustained following an earthquake with a 200-year-return-period, as discussed in the SPSR reports for each levee system. It describes recommendations, including estimated quantities of fill material needed, that would be necessary for repairing the levee systems to the interim conditions, which are to be performed within 8 weeks of the event, and long term conditions, which are considered final. Immediate emergency response actions should follow the procedures outlined by the appropriate Local Maintaining Agency (LMA) emergency response plan, including flood fighting methods, if necessary. Immediate emergency response is not a part of the scope of this PERP. Borrow sites and haul routes for repair construction are included in Attachment B of Appendices D, E, and F (pending).
Per the ULDC, interim repairs are defined as those necessary to restore the levee system’s grade and dimensions within 8 weeks that are sufficient for protection against the 10-year flood with 3 feet of freeboard (referred to herein as the Interim Repair Design Elevation or IRDE). Levee grade and dimensions for interim repairs have been assumed to equal the minimum levee prism defined in Section DRAFT

7.8 Levee Geometry of the ULDC: a crown width of 20 feet and levee slopes of 3H:1V waterside and landside for major streams and a crown width of 12 feet and levee slopes of 3H:1V waterside and landside for minor streams. Long term repairs are defined to be the repairs required to return the levee to a 200-year level of flood protection or the design water surface elevation (DWSE) for urban areas.
The PERP uses 200-year-return-period ground motions. However, it is acknowledged that earthquakes exceeding the 200-year return period are possible. Although the subject levee system has not been analyzed for such ground motions, it is likely that the potential locations of damage expected from 200- year-return-period ground motions would also be considered the most likely damage locations for more severe ground motions.
MBK worked with SAFCA to evaluate existing properties owned by or covered by existing agreements with SAFCA and properties known by SAFCA to be owned by the State of California or other local agencies with properties that have available borrow material. These locations are provided in Appendix B.

2 SCOPE
___________________________________________________________________________________
The PERP contains general information for levees under SAFCA jurisdiction about the potential damages that a seismic event can produce on a levee system, provisions for emergency preparations, procedures for post-earthquake mobilization and response actions, and general approaches for interim and long term repairs. Each appendix contains specific information for NAS, ARSLS, and NB levees.
Elements of the PERP addressed in the following sections include:
1. Potential seismically induced damages (Section 3)
2. Emergency preparations (Section 4)
3. Procedures for mobilization, data gathering, response actions, and notifications (Section 5)
4. Provisions for interim repairs and long term repairs (Section 6)
5. Guidelines for interim and long term repair implementation (Section 7)
According to the ULDC, the PERP contains estimates of the general magnitude and locations of damage expected from seismic loading. It then includes approximations of the magnitude of repair material needed for interim repairs, which will restore each levee segment’s grade and dimensions to sufficiently protect against the IRDE. Estimated volumes for long term repairs are also provided. Appendices D, E, and F (pending)
2 contain this information for the NAS, ARSLS, and NB levees, respectively.
This report has been prepared consistent with the requirements of the approved scope of work for the subject project outlined in Kleinfelder’s proposal dated May 5, 2023. Kleinfelder was tasked with performing a high-level study and no new data was collected to evaluate the seismic vulnerability. As such, certain limitations apply to the evaluation:
1. The extents of seismic segments remain unchanged from the Urban Levee Evaluation (ULE) performed for each study area from 2013 to 2015 by URS Corporation. These were delineated by URS based on similarities in levee height, subsurface layer properties, and other geometric and stratigraphic features.
2 Appendix F for NB to be prepared and added to the PERP upon completion of seismic evaluation of the NB levees.

© 2024 Kleinfelder
2. The expected deformation of High Vulnerability segments was based on conclusions from the aforementioned ULE reports, including critical cross sections and post-seismic slope stability analyses for the segments.
Due to the above methodology, potential seismically-induced damages were assumed to be the same across large spans of the levee systems. Differences in geometry and stratigraphy within each segment could be further investigated in more detailed studies, which may result in varying amounts of damage and material quantities needed for repair than those estimated in this report. Additional investigations and soil testing data would refine the estimated extents of damage and volume estimates discussed in this PERP.

3 POTENTIAL SEISMICALLY INDUCED DAMAGES
___________________________________________________________________________________
Strong ground shaking due to a seismic event may result in strength losses within the levee structure and/or the foundation materials. The most common forms of seismically induced damages to a levee system are expected to be slumping or settlement of the crown, lateral spreading or bulging of the lower slopes, and cracking associated with liquefaction or softening of the foundation soils.
Settlement of the levee crown can result in loss of freeboard and potential overtopping from future high-water events. Longitudinal cracks along the levee and transverse cracks crossing the levee can occur in conjunction with crown settlement or as surface manifestations of other conditions.
Longitudinal cracks are typically associated with tension near the crown due to lateral spreading, levee slope instability, and downslope or horizontal ground movement. Longitudinal cracking frequently occurs in conjunction with crown settlement but may occur on its own if instability is limited in extent.
Transverse cracks may be found at the boundaries between liquefied levee reaches and non-liquefied levee reaches, at locations where liquefied levee reaches contain or abut appurtenant structures with rigid or deep foundations and other locations where the condition of the levee changes abruptly.
Abrupt changes in stiffness may be caused by changes in construction type , structure transitions such as a core wall or large pipelines, changes in soil compaction, or by the proximity to a very stiff or very soft subsurface layer. Transverse cracks have the potential to lead to levee failure from seepage erosion through the cracks if the adjacent water levels are high enough.
The actual degree and patterns of damage will vary with the local soil conditions and seismic response, the magnitude of ground shaking, the groundwater level, as well as the water level against the levee, if any. Some areas along the levee alignment have foundation soil deposits of soft clay, fine sand, and silt.
Figure 2, Typical Liquefaction-Induced Damage Patterns, depicts examples of possible deformation patterns of the levee cross section as a result of liquefaction in the foundation soils. Relative levels of damage may be described as follows:
• Type D-1 includes settlement of the crown with corresponding heave at the toe. Longitudinal cracks near the crown may also be present.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 7 of 43 April 18, 2025
© 2024 Kleinfelder
• Types D-2 and D-3 involve progressively more extensive lateral spreading with associated longitudinal cracks and crown settlement. Transverse cracks, especially near the end points of the longitudinal damages, may also be present.
• Type D-4 is essentially collapse of the levee section.
Figure 3, Representative Post-Earthquake Levee Damages, provides photos of post-earthquake levee damages including slope movement, cracks, and sand boils. In the photos, transverse cracks are noted adjacent to slope movement and at the transition areas between liquefied foundation soils and those previously repaired with a mix-in-place, soil-cement foundation treatment. Plastic sheeting was placed where post-earthquake cracks may be exposed to inundation from rainfall. This measure helps to minimize rainfall penetration into the cracks, which could exacerbate the earthquake-induced damages.
3.1 SEISMICALLY INDUCED SETTLEMENT DAMAGES
Data from boring logs (including blow counts, fines content, layer thickness and soil classification) was used to identify the approximate locations and extents of the levee system with the potential for seismically induced levee settlement. Subsurface stratigraphy and estimates of in-situ soil strengths were used to identify layers that are potentially susceptible to seismically induced strength loss. The magnitude and peak horizontal acceleration (PHA) of a 200-year-return-period earthquake was used to calculate the factor of safety against liquefaction for these layers. Residual undrained strength values for layers likely to liquefy were used in models representing the post-seismic strength of a levee.
Two primary types of seismically-induced damages for levees are flow failure and seismic deformation.
Flow failure can occur when the low residual strength of a liquefied layer cannot support the levee, and portions of the levee collapse along a failure plane. Deformation can occur when the levee does not collapse, but instead slumps and/or displaces vertically to damage the levee crown and upper shoulders.
Because of the variability of soil properties within levee systems, it is unlikely that all levee sections would experience severe deformation to the same degree. In addition, soil from portions of the damaged levee will likely be usable for levee repairs. Therefore, the estimated levee repair fill volumes in Appendices D, E, and F (pending) were intended to provide conservative estimates for those reaches that were considered potentially susceptible to damage during seismic shaking. Fill volumes actually used would be determined based on post-earthquake inspections and subsequent engineering analyses as appropriate. Needed fill from borrow sites would depend on the ability to reuse existing levee DRAFT

materials. It is anticipated that the primary interim-repair levee fill could come from reuse of existing levee materials.
3.2 SEEPAGE CUTOFF WALL DAMAGES
Seepage cutoff walls installed at levees are susceptible to damage resulting from seismic loading effects.
For instance, flow failure could cut and displace the upper portion of a seepage cutoff wall along the failure plane, and deformations are expected to impact the upper portions of the seepage cutoff walls.
As part of post-seismic event damage reconnaissance, the seepage cutoff walls should be evaluated by the LMA District Engineer
3 to assess the need, extent, and type of seepage cutoff wall repair. Shallow damages may only require restoring the embankment above the undamaged portion of the seepage cutoff wall.
Reconstruction of seepage cutoff walls may be necessary for long term levee remediation to meet ULDC requirements. The construction procedures include degrading the levee to a working platform elevation, installing the wall to the design tip elevation, and rebuilding the levee crown. Seepage cutoff wall options include open-trench slurry-based designs such as soil-bentonite (SB) walls and drill-based installations such as deep mix method (DMM) walls. Isolated and/or limited extent repairs can be performed using jet grouting. The method selected will be determined by the District Engineer based on their evaluation of damage to the cutoff wall, which may require advancing drilled borings and/or cone penetration tests (CPTs).
3.3 SEISMICALLY INDUCED CRACKING
As noted previously, there are various factors that affect crack formation in levees and the susceptibility of cracks to remain open. Factors that may influence levee crack formation and behavior include:
• Height and geometry of the embankment – these factors may influence the amount of settlement. Abrupt changes in geometry may cause concentrated stress locations and potential crack locations.
• Foundation soils – Low density or low strength soils may be prone to strength loss during seismic loading, including liquefaction. Liquefied foundation soils may result in a loss of foundation support resulting in slope failure or full levee failure, with associated longitudinal

24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 9 of 43 April 18, 2025

cracks near the crown. Transverse cracks may form at the boundaries between failed and non- failed levee sections and other locations.
• Other stress factors or stress points in the levee system – these factors may tend to focus stresses because of differing response characteristics to dynamic forces. Contributing factors may include utility crossings, penetrations, extensive rodent holes in an area, and rigid structures or foundations. Each of these factors may produce a different seismic response than the surrounding soil mass, leading to potential cracks in the contact/transition zone. Also, significant or abrupt changes in the levee construction, levee shape or alignment or levee stiffness might result in differing seismic responses and potential cracks in the contact/transition zone.
• Local ground motion intensity and characteristics – ground motions provide the dynamic forces that lead to embankment deformation and variations in subsurface conditions (i.e., buried river channels) may result in non-uniform shaking at the ground surface. • Adjacent river stage – river stage may affect earthquake behavior and resulting performance of the levee and the component materials.
• Saturation level of an embankment and foundation– Saturated soils will react in a different manner than dry soils, which affects the dynamic behavior of the levee. • Soil type, plasticity, and moisture content – these soils properties may control deformation and the ability for cracks to form and stay open. A highly plastic clay soil that is wet of optimum moisture content will have less tendency to crack and to have the cracks remain open after a seismic event. A soil that is dry of optimum is more brittle and cracks will generally tend to remain open. Typically, a sandy, cohesionless soil will tend to close more quickly than a clay soil. • Relative compaction and different compaction techniques – soil density and construction methods can influence levee behavior. Soils compacted dry of the optimum moisture content will be more brittle than those compacted wet of optimum. Dense soils may be more brittle than loose soils.
Figures 2 and 3 show examples of typical post-earthquake crack types. Some general guidelines and common characteristics are described below:

1. Longitudinal cracks are roughly linear. These most often occur with foundation or levee slope movements, which result in horizontal soil mass movement away from the crown and consequent cracks approximately parallel to and near the crown. a. A higher potential for longitudinal cracking would likely be associated with portions of the levee segments with the highest potential for severe seismically induced settlement or horizontal displacement.
2. Transverse cracks are roughly linear and most often occur at or near abrupt foundation or levee structure transitions, such as boundaries of crown settlements/slumps/depressions or differential foundation conditions (firm ground vs. soft or liquefied ground); adjacent to structures and utilities (including pipelines); and potentially near the ends of cement-based seepage cutoff walls.
a. A higher potential for transverse cracking would be expected in zones with adjacent levee components producing potentially differing seismic responses.
3. Desiccation cracks are generally smaller (less width and depth) and more extensive over the levee surface than longitudinal and transverse levee cracks. Pattern cracking is typical of desiccation cracks, usually found in the dry season and during drought periods. These cracks should not be confused with the more linear structural cracks, although they may be present in the same area.
3.4 LEVEE REPAIR MATERIALS AND BORROW SOURCES
A map showing locations of potential borrow areas that could provide the materials needed for interim and long-term repairs is provided in Appendix B as well as attachments to the site-specific PERPs included as Appendices D, E, and F (pending). The identified sites have enough available material to meet the interim repair requirement to restore the levee to the IRDE and the long-term repair requirement to restore the levee to the 200-year flood level of protection as estimated by this PERP. The borrows (except for the Zoned Open Space Agricultural Land) have previously been used as borrow sources for USACE levee projects. This includes screening-level testing per current USACE geotechnical and environmental fill criteria. If other borrow sites are planned to be used, it is recommended that SAFCA review each site to confirm the borrow material meets the geotechnical requirements for levee fill and does not contain contaminated or environmentally hazardous materials.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 11 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
The potential borrow sites include the following:
• Brookfield Borrow Site: An existing borrow site owned by SAFCA that was used for previous Natomas Levee improvements is located in the northeast corner of the Natomas Levee System.
Currently there is no equipment on-site and no access restrictions. • Cache Creek Settling Basin: This site is owned by the State of California and contains settled out sediment that has collected in this basin. SAFCA will rely on current relationships with the State to access this material in the event of an emergency. Currently there is no equipment on-site and no access restrictions.
• Granite Construction Bradshaw Plant: A commercial construction material supplier with general pit run and overburden soils consisting of sand, silt, and clay. This material is available throughout the year. SAFCA does not have a current agreement or contract with them, however, in an emergency a MOU or something similar may be processed quickly between the City/County and Granite. This site has loading equipment provided by Granite. Trucks would be covered under existing JOC agreements between SAFCA and vendors. • Teichert Aggregate Perkins Plant: A commercial construction material supplier with general pit run and overburden soils consisting of sand, silt, and clay. This material is available throughout the year. SAFCA does not have a current agreement or contract with them, however, in an emergency a MOU or something similar may be processed quickly between the City/County and Granite. This site has loading equipment provided by Granite. Trucks would be covered under existing JOC agreements between SAFCA and vendors.
• West Sacramento Deep Water Ship Channel Dredge Material: The Port of Sacramento periodically dredges the turning basin to remove deposited materials. This dredged material becomes available at locations adjacent to the Deep Water Ship Channel. Typical material consists of sand, silt, and clay. Currently there is no equipment on-site and no access restrictions. Trucks for hauling and equipment for loading would be covered under existing JOC agreements between SAFCA and vendors.
• ECHO Water Borrow Site: A variety of stockpiled material at the ECHO Water Project is available under agreement between SAFCA and Sacramento Area Sewer District (SASD). This agreement is only available for a limited time, of which SAFCA is tracking. Currently there is no equipment on- site and access requires coordination with SASD.

24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 12 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
• Zoned Open Space Agricultural Land: Private land owners with property used for agricultural purposes may be utilized in an emergency. SAFCA does not have a current agreement or contract with property owners in the south Sacramento County area, however, in an emergency a MOU or something similar may be processed quickly between the City/County and the property owner. Typical material consists of sand, silt, and clay. Currently there is no equipment on-site. Trucks for hauling and equipment for loading would be covered under existing JOC agreements between SAFCA and vendors.
3.5 HAUL ROUTES AND STOCKPILES
Maps showing the locations of potential borrow areas, potential haul routes and potential stockpile locations that could provide the materials needed for interim and long-term repairs are provided as an attachment to each levee system specific PERP included as Appendices D, E, and F (pending). Stockpile locations may or may not be used depending on the extent of repair needed.
Stockpile locations would allow for staging of levee repair material by large haul trucks that may not be able to access the levee and for material processing/blending operations. The stockpile locations should be used at the discretion of the District Engineer.
The haul routes shown include major routes from the potential borrow locations to a stockpile location adjacent to the subject levee. The Reclamation Districts and SAFCA have maps of available access ramps up to the levee. After an event, stockpiling, haul routes, and levee access points will need to be evaluated by the District Engineer based on the location and extent of damage, type of haul vehicle, potential damage to roadways, and selected borrow location.

4 EMERGENCY PREPARATIONS
___________________________________________________________________________________
As part of their regular operations, each LMA maintains a Flood Safety Plan (FSP) and Emergency Response Plan to respond to potential flood emergencies. These plans include having emergency responsibilities already assigned in their FSP to prepare service support plans, operating procedures, and checklists detailing the use and disposition of their resources in an emergency. Such plans and procedures include coordination and communication lines with counterpart organizations of other jurisdictions.
Earthquakes provide no warning. As such, post-earthquake flood preparedness begins with emergency preparations before an earthquake so that response procedures and equipment are in place and ready when the earthquake occurs. The FSP plans and procedures apply for post-earthquake preparedness and are supplemented as applicable for the specific requirements of post-earthquake response. One aspect is the anticipated addition of post-earthquake response training to the DWR annual flood safety training for personnel. This component of the training will address post-earthquake mobilization criteria, levee inspection procedures, earthquake damage response, and potential interim repairs.
In addition, levee construction plans as well as a baseline survey, periodic inspection/survey records, and current status records are maintained at the LMA office.
Emergency personnel initially involve the LMA operations personnel and designated levee inspection teams. Minimum equipment for post-earthquake levee inspection teams includes:
• Levee vehicle with minimum two-person team
• Radio communications equipment for contact with LMA General Manager or designee • Watertight LED flashlights (2) with backup batteries
• Flat-tipped shovels (2)
• 6-foot-long folding rulers (2) – for crack depth estimating • Tape measure (2)
• Hand level (2)
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 14 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
• Measuring wheel
• GPS unit – note that hand levels and measuring wheels or tape measures could be eliminated if accurate enough GPS units are available
• Marking flags (30 each) – red, yellow, orange
• Digital photo capability (2) – cameras or smart phones Contact information for each level of personnel involvement is included in the FSP protocol. Emergency material haulers have been pre-contracted by the LMA on a force account basis.

5 RESPONSE PROVISIONS
___________________________________________________________________________________
Specific provisions for earthquake response are outlined below and discussed in the following sections and include:
1. Initial response and field mobilization criteria (Section 5.1)
2. Data gathering procedures and priorities (Section 5.2)
3. Damage analysis and response, including contact with other agencies and public notifications (Section 5.3)
5.1 INITIAL RESPONSE AND MOBILIZATION
Special post-earthquake inspections are conducted if:
• Post-earthquake damage is observed
• The ground motion is felt on or in the vicinity of the levee • The earthquake epicenter is within the distances shown in Table 1

5.2 INITIAL POST RESPONSE DATA GATHERING
When a post-earthquake inspection is triggered, designated levee inspection teams will be deployed to inspect the levees. Levee inspection teams will consist of properly trained levee patrol crews (refer to the appropriate FSP) and include representatives of the District Engineer if they are available for first response. Appendix D through F of this document contains specific information for each system including recommended initial post-earthquake inspection areas.
Initial field data gathered by the field inspection team(s) are important for levee damage evaluation.
Weather conditions can quickly mask the presence or extent of some levee damages. The teams will log levee sections by Unit number and Levee Mile, identifying and documenting areas of the following:
1. Levee crown settlement, depressions, and crown width loss
2. Longitudinal and transverse cracks
3. Slope movement, sloughing, and lateral (toe) spreading
4. Sand boils
5. No observed damage
The teams will map damaged locations with the GPS unit, document the levee sections by Unit number and Levee Mile, approximate the extent of damage with measurements and photographs, and mark the damaged areas with flags. An IRDE Damage Classification and a Long Term Damage Classification as described in Sections 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 along with the levee extents associated with the classifications will be documented.
Both IRDE and Long Term Damage Classifications are based on visual inspection; probing and measurement of cracks from the surface; and measurement of levee crown settlement. The IRDE Damage Classification should be assigned first as it is intended to provide prioritization of levee segment repair to meet the IRDE within the required 8-week time frame. Once an IRDE Damage Classification has been assigned to a levee segment, the levee segment should be evaluated and assigned a Long Term Damage Classification as described in Section 5.2.2.
It is expected the LMA will perform a rapid elevation survey of the levee crown to aid in the damage assessment for both the IRDE and long term conditions. This can be accomplished with LiDAR using a drone, for instance, and is necessary for comparison to the calculated IRDE and the long term top of levee elevation. Professional survey data should ultimately be used to evaluate levee crown settlement; however, during the initial emergency response, levee crown settlement based on levee height can be DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 17 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
estimated by measuring the height above the landside levee toe to begin damage classification and repair prioritization. Table A-1 in Attachment A of each of the site-specific PERP Appendices D, E, and F (pending) lists the IRDE and Long Term top of levee elevations at 100-foot intervals provided by MBK.
Landside toe point elevations at 100-foot intervals compiled from sources that are documented within the table are summarized in Table A-1 . Appendices D through F only includes data for levees segments categorized as high or medium vulnerability. For instance, the levee elevations for the NEMDC, Dry Creek, and Robla-Arcade levees were not listed because all were found to be low vulnerability.
Sections 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 discuss the IRDE and Long Term Damage Classification Criteria.
5.2.1 IRDE Damage Classification
An estimated IRDE Damage Classification will be assigned in accordance with Table 2A based on levee cracking and settlement observations. Table 2A summarizes the criteria used to classify liquefaction- induced damage as it relates to the IRDE based on longitudinal and transverse crack widths and remaining freeboard above the IRDE as follows:
• Longitudinal Cracks: Should be evaluated based on the opening width and location relative to the IRDE levee prism. The IRDE prism is defined as the minimum levee prism repair to be constructed within 8 weeks after a seismic event. Longitudinal cracks extending into the IRDE levee prism should be assigned a Damage Classification of I-3 or higher. Longitudinal cracks that do not appear to extend into the IRDE levee prism and are assigned a Damage Classification of I- 1 or I-2 should be evaluated by the District Engineer to assess whether additional investigation is needed to confirm the crack does not impact the IRDE levee prism. • Transverse Cracks: Should be evaluated based on the opening width and location relative to the IRDE. Transverse cracks extending into the IRDE levee prism should be assigned a Damage Classification of I-3 or higher. Transverse cracks that do not appear to extend into the IRDE and are assigned a Damage Classification of I-1 or I-2 should be evaluated by the District Engineer to assess whether additional investigation is needed to confirm the crack does not impact the IRDE levee prism.
• Settlement: Assesses the levee elevation relative to the IRDE. If the levee elevation is below the IRDE it should be assigned a Damage Classification of I-3 or higher. Levee heights will vary between locations, so settlement greater than one foot may result in more severe damage at a shorter levee compared to a taller one. Therefore, it is recommended to use cracking DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 18 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
observations and remaining freeboard above the IRDE elevation along with settlement to assign a Damage Classification to a damaged levee area.
o Note: Levee crown settlement should be estimated and documented. Levee crown settlement of 1 foot or greater, where the levee crown is above the IRDE and the levee does not exhibit any visible cracks should be evaluated by the District Engineer.
Figure 2 shows typical liquefaction-induced damage patterns in drawings D-1 through D-4 that can be used as a general reference for the expected levee deformation shapes.
The overall IRDE Damage Classification of the section should be selected based on the category with the highest IRDE Damage Classification; for instance, if a section has settled approximately 0.7 foot (Class I- 2); has over 1 foot of freeboard above the IRDE (Class I-1); has transverse cracks with a maximum width of 2 inches and above the IRDE (Class I-2); and has longitudinal cracks with a maximum width of 11 inches (Class I-4), the section would be classified as Class I-4.

It should be noted that at some stations the levee landside toe elevation exceeds the IRDE and Table A-1 presents freeboard above IRDE as greater than 100% of the levee height. Additionally, at some locations the IRDE is very close to or above the top of levee elevations due to presence of high ground or a berm, which resulted in a calculated levee height of less than 1 foot. To more accurately estimate levee height for the section, these elevations were replaced with estimates based on nearby toe elevations; these estimates are italicized and described in Table A-1.
In general, any damaged section where the deformed crown elevation is below the IRDE will require interim repair, and all damaged sections will require long term repair. Sections anticipated to deform below the IRDE based on seismic effects are denoted as “Priority 1” in Appendices D, E, and F (pending); however, damage may occur at any point on the levee. Once an IRDE Damage Classification and extent of the classification has been assigned to a levee segment, the levee should be assigned a Long Term Damage Classification.
5.2.2 Long Term Damage Classification
The Long Term Damage Classification assumes the IRDE levee prism will be restored separately or the damage was not identified as impacting the IRDE levee prism. The Long Term Damage Classification is intended to be general and to help inform the extent and degree of long term repair along the impacted levees. Table 2B summarizes the criteria for Long Term Damage Classification. Appendix A provides typical repair drawings, and the subsequence report sections discuss repair procedures and guidelines.

Photographs will be taken at the initial observation of damages and after flags are placed. A short sequence of photos will be taken to provide an area overview followed by more detailed damage photos. The area overview photo will be used to place the detailed photos in context. Flagging will be placed to locate and delineate areas of damage to allow for further evaluation as appropriate. The flags will be placed as follows:
• Transverse cracks and sand boils – red flags
• Crown settlement and lateral spreading – orange flags • Longitudinal cracks and isolated slope movement – yellow flags
5.3 ANALYSIS AND RESPONSE
The levee damage information will be provided to the LMA General Manager or the General Manager’s designee, who will make a determination regarding the observed damages. After review of the levee inspection data, further action may be taken per the following:
A) If no damage is reported:
• Take no further action.
B) For minor to moderate damage:
• Request District Engineer’s review to evaluate if interim requirements are met or if immediate repair is necessary.
o Determine crack depths by digging out cracks, and schedule repairs as appropriate. o Request District Engineer’s evaluation for presence of slope movement, lateral spreading, or sand boils.
o Cover all major cracks with plastic sheeting to safeguard against moisture inundation from rainfall prior to interim and/or long term repairs. Perform this as an emergency repair in accordance with the LMA FSP and emergency response plan.
C) For major damage or greater:
• Initiate emergency repairs immediately per the LMA FSP and emergency response plan flood fighting procedures.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 24 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
The public should be notified as appropriate per the FSP protocol. Damages to levees will be prioritized for repair based on protection of nearby populations; severity of cracking and/or the amount of freeboard lost, if any. The degree of damage should be compared to the IRDE levee prism and prioritized over damaged levees meeting or above the IRDE levee prism but below the long term repair condition.
IRDE Damage Classification of I-3 to I-5 do not meet the required IRDE levee prism. IRDE Damage Classification of I-0 to I-2 should meet the IRDE levee prism but likely does not meet the long term condition. IRDE Damage Classification of I-1 and I-2 should be reviewed by the District Engineer to assess if additional investigation is needed to confirm the IRDE levee prism is not impacted. If a levee segment is damaged and/or the crown settles below the IRDE, the long term and interim repair guidelines in Section 7 will be followed.
Once an IRDE has been assessed and repairs scheduled, the long term damage classes should be assessed and long term repairs planned. Long Term Damage Classification of L-2 and L-3 do not meet the required long term levee prism. Long Term Damage Classification of L-0 and L-1 should meet the long term levee prism. Long Term Damage Classification of L-0 to L-1 should be reviewed by the District Engineer to assess if additional investigation is needed to confirm the long term levee prism is not impacted. If a levee segment is damaged and/or the crown settles below the long term DWSE, the long term and interim repair guidelines in Section 7 will be followed.
If conditions, in particular during flood season, exceed the LMA’s capabilities on any of the levee systems, the LMA will contact the DWR Flood Operations Center (FOC) for technical assistance, following the FSP protocol.

6 GENERAL REPAIR PROVISIONS
___________________________________________________________________________________
The degree of seismically induced damages can vary from surficial slumps, cracks, and minor depressions to major levee cracks and settlement of portions of levee reaches below the IRDE to full collapse of a levee section. The following sections address general guidance for post-earthquake damage evaluation and remediation of damaged levee reaches, including initial direction, permitting, the District Engineer’s evaluation, documentation, and interim and long term repairs.
6.1 INITIAL DIRECTION
Minor damages (as categorized in Table 2) are typically handled under normal LMA operational protocol with the District Engineer’s review. Damages beyond a Minor Damage Classification include larger cracks and settlement require more detailed evaluation of crack location(s) and extent and of levee geometry by the District Engineer or their designee. These repairs may be handled under normal operational protocol or require interim and/or long term repair protocol based on the extent of damages, availability of equipment, and timing relative to the flood season.
When settlement or slope failure of a levee section causes the crown to settle such that an appropriate crown width is below the IRDE required by the ULDC, interim repairs are required to restore the IRDE and satisfactory levee dimensions. This repair must be accomplished within 8 weeks to minimize exposure of the protected community during flood season. Long term repairs should be scheduled during the dry season.
Initial repair activities also include confirming repair priorities, rights-of way, haul roads and staging areas, borrow sites, construction easements (if needed), permit acquisition, and contractor supplies and equipment availability.
6.2 PERMITTING
It is beyond the scope of this document to describe the various engineering, environmental, and regulatory permitting processes that govern the implementation of levee modifications. In general levee repair (interim and long term) activities are covered under a host of federal, state, and local laws and regulations including but not limited to:
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 26 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
• Central Valley Flood Protection Board (CVFPB) regulations and standards contained in Title 23 of the California Code of Regulations
• The federal Rivers and Harbors Act for structures or work in or affecting navigable waters of the United States (WOUS), administered by the USACE
• Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) for the discharge of dredged or fill material in WOUS, and CWA Section 401, Water Quality Certification.
Additional environmental requirements include compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the California Endangered Species Act (CESA), the Federal Endangered Species Act (FESA) and regulatory programs implemented by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), such as streambed alteration agreements, the California Water Resources Control Board, and Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board.
In general, emergency response actions necessary to maintain service essential to the public health, safety or welfare may be temporarily exempt from CEQA and from NEPA in cases where there is Federal funding, permits, land, or FESA involved in a project. However, complying with NEPA and the CWA is necessary to ensure participation in the PL 84-99 program and when seeking FEMA reimbursements.
Consultation with natural resource agencies including CDFW and the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) should be made prior to and while engaging in emergency response actions to protect and preserve sensitive resources and their habitats. FWS is available to assist with compliance with FESA during emergency events by providing recommendations for minimizing adverse effects to listed species during the emergency response. For short-term levee repairs needed to save lives and property, DWR, LMAs, or landowners can go ahead with repairs that restore the flood control structures to substantially the same conditions under emergency provisions of FESA, informally and formally consulting with trustee agencies as required.
During flood conditions, if an earthquake were to cause significant levee damage resulting in an emergency situation, it is possible that the incident would be covered by a Regional General Permit (RGP) #8 issued by the USACE Sacramento District’s District Engineer. This permit would be requested through DWR and would allow for USACE “emergency actions authorizing structures or work in or affecting WOUS and the discharge of dredged or fill material in WOUS, including wetlands, for necessary repair or protection of existing structures, facilities or fills where an imminent threat to life or property exists due to unforeseen events during an emergency incident.” However, even with emergency actions, DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 27 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
regulatory agencies must be notified, environmental compliance requirements must ultimately be addressed, and actions must be documented.
6.3 DISTRICT ENGINEER’S REVIEW/EVALUATION
Levee construction plans as well as a baseline survey and current status records are maintained at the LMA office. The LMA and the District Engineer will meet as soon as the field inspection teams identify any of the listed damages to the levee system to schedule a damage evaluation/review as appropriate.
The District Engineer’s preliminary evaluation may involve reviewing the initial field data gathered, comparing the data with the as-built drawings, and performing an initial site visit. The available information will be used to assess the overall embankment stability and, in the case of significant damages, to compare with the typical levee grade and dimensions for an interim (10-year flood) level of protection. For example, Table A-1 in Appendix D, North Area Streams Levees, provides the 10-year flood water surface elevations (as well as existing crown elevations) for the American River North Levee segments analyzed. Based on this evaluation, the District Engineer may identify a remnant levee prism suitable for an interim level of protection or provide preliminary recommendations for interim repairs.
Additional field investigation of the levee damages (including field sampling, laboratory testing, and field surveys) may be appropriate, especially if later, long term repairs are anticipated. The District Engineer will coordinate with the LMA to establish priorities on how to return the damaged levee section(s) to serviceability within a reasonable timeframe. Subsequent sections discuss the process for interim and long term repairs in more detail.
6.4 INTERIM REPAIRS
Following preliminary levee damage evaluation, the District Engineer and LMA will establish priorities to restore all damaged levee segments to the minimum grade and dimensions sufficient for protection against the IRDE. Per ULDC requirements, the interim repairs are to be completed within 8 weeks to avoid prolonged exposure of the protected communities during flood season. The priority will be to utilize on-site levee materials to repair the damaged levee sections. Where deformed materials are not able to be reused, then borrow materials referenced in Section 3.4 will be transported to the site and used for interim repairs.

Section 7 provides a general set of procedures and guidelines for the interim repair of cracked and slumped levee sections, including general procedures for excavating and filling cracks, removing disturbed or slumped ground, and keying in new fill.
6.5 INTERIM REPAIR DOCUMENTATION
Documentation is critical throughout the repair process, especially to meet the regulatory requirements discussed in Section 6.2. Lack of good documentation may endanger the ability of the levee to be certified for ULDC and FEMA requirements. The LMA and District Engineer should assure that thorough documents are prepared and preserved before, during, and after the repair, as discussed below.
Before Repair – All communications related to the earthquake incident are documented on the District office call log. If field inspection teams are deployed, their operations are documented on a Division Activity Log using FEMA ICS
4 Form 214. All hand-generated field data (locations, descriptions, measurements, etc.) are organized in a paper file and scanned into a computer for digital archiving. The scanned documents and any electronically generated documents (i.e., field notes and observations on tablets) are organized in computer files along with all GPS data and digital photos, including a photo log.
During Repair – The following field information is maintained: daily field reports, photo documentation of earthwork activities, copies of field and laboratory test results, notes from on-site meetings, and communications concerning the Contractor, District Engineer, and LMA.
After Repair – The documentation generated during repair is archived electronically. As-built drawings and completion-survey information documenting the completed levee repairs are updated and maintained in the LMA office.
6.6 LONG TERM REPAIRS
Whereas interim repairs only require a 10-year level of flood protection, long term repairs are defined as those required to return the levee system to an urban level of flood protection, i.e., a 200-year level of flood protection or DWSE. Accordingly, long term repairs require more detailed field investigation and analyses than the interim repair process. The LMA General Manager with assistance from the District Engineer will establish priorities on returning all damaged levee segments to an urban level of flood protection.

The process for implementation of long term repairs is similar as that outlined above in Sections 6.4 and
6.5 for interim repairs. Repairs outlined in the PERP may be followed to restore the levee grade to the DWSE. The public will be kept apprised of progress and will be notified following completion of repairs and the return of all damaged levee segments to an urban level of flood protection.
In addition, it may also be appropriate to perform a geotechnical investigation to investigate the condition of the remnant levee and foundation to determine if additional actions are warranted. This is particularly important in cases where seepage cutoff walls extend into the levee foundation. At a minimum, a geotechnical investigation should include the following items.
• evaluation of the extent of the damaged embankment zone • evaluation of the on-site soils for reuse in levee repairs • consideration of mitigation factors to improve foundation conditions related to the observed levee damages
• evaluation of other factors as appropriate that may have contributed to the observed damages • Evaluation of flood control features that remain in the area damaged by the earthquake such as seepage cutoff walls
If the geotechnical investigation indicates deficiencies that require remediation, levee repair construction plans, specifications, and cost estimates will then be prepared. Funding sources for the necessary work will be pursued, permits will be obtained, a contractor will be selected, and the repair work performed.
Future levee patrols should include close observation of any areas where damages were recorded and repaired. Any signs of cracking, slumping, seepage, or other deficiencies should be reported to the LMA.

7 INTERIM AND LONG TERM REPAIR GUIDELINES
___________________________________________________________________________________
This section provides a general set of procedures for the interim repair of cracked and slumped levee sections, including general procedures for excavating and filling cracks, removing disturbed or slumped ground, and keying in new fill. These guidelines were developed using a template type approach. The levee repair templates identified in Table 3 and included in Appendix A have been developed to address common earthquake-related distress issues, including longitudinal and transverse cracks, slope movement including lateral spreading, and crown settlement including partial to full collapse.

The templates in Appendix A provide basic guidelines for interim levee repairs without specifying design standards, as the specific type, location, and extent of damages will be better defined by the initial damage evaluation. The appropriate response will be then determined based on suitable preparation, practical evaluation of the current conditions, and modification of the guidelines to address the situation at hand using engineering evaluation and judgment.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 31 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
The levee repair templates illustrate the repairs as landside slope repairs. However, the guidelines are considered appropriate for both landside and waterside seismically induced damages, except during flood conditions when the waterside will experience varying river stages. Levee repair should follow the requirements of the CVFPB regulations and standards contained in Title 23 of the California Code of Regulations and USACE Sacramento District’s Geotechnical Levee Practice Standard Operating Procedures.
The probability of the simultaneous occurrence of a major flood condition and a damaging earthquake is very low, and significantly less than the probability of only one of those events. Seismically induced damages would be more likely to occur on the waterside during high-water conditions because the flood-induced saturation of the levee waterside slope and foundation may increase the vulnerability of the levee to seismic damage. In the worst-case scenario, a seismically induced levee collapse when the river is at flood stage could lead to a levee breach and flooding of the protected area. A higher probability scenario would be some seismically induced damage to the waterside requiring interim repair activities. The subject of repairs of waterside damages is discussed further in Section 7.4.
7.1 GENERAL IMPLEMENTATION PROVISIONS FOR REPAIR TEMPLATES Specific repair guidelines are discussed in the following sections, and major features are shown on the repair templates in Appendix A. The following are some general provisions to be employed as appropriate during repairs:
• The existing as-built drawings and project surveys should be used when planning, designing, and implementing repair alternatives.
• The LMA will determine whether adequate rights of way are available and obtain the necessary rights of way, if needed.
• Test pits and/or soil borings and more detailed site surveys may be used if deemed necessary by the District Engineer or their designee. Engineering judgment will be used in evaluating the need for and level of subsurface explorations and engineering analyses as well as the extent of interim repairs to be performed.
• Surface sloughing is considered a maintenance problem, as it usually does not affect the levee’s structural integrity and is handled by the regular maintenance personnel.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 32 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
• For damaged sections, the existing slope or ground surface will be prepared for embankment or berm material placement. Surface preparation will include removing selected vegetation, debris, downed timber or tree roots, rubbish, loose soil, and other obstructions. A minimum of 6 inches of a slope or ground surface will be removed as part of the surface preparation. Additional excavation will be performed as necessary to remove damaged/disturbed soils. The exposed subgrade will be scarified, moisture conditioned, and recompacted to provide a stable base to work from.
o To account for the potential to encountered unstable subgrade conditions at the subgrade level, geotextile stabilization fabric was used in several of the interim repair alternatives in which the new embankment construction is keyed into the foundation material. A properly installed, suitable mid-range or better, geotextile stabilization fabric (for example Mirafi RS380i, Propex Geotex 801 or similar; see Appendix C for the property data sheets for these examples) helps provide a stable base for embankment reconstruction. Geotextile stabilization fabric and/or geogrids should be used in areas where unstable soils are encountered that impede earthwork construction since these materials will help bridge over unstable soils and help construction to proceed. Proper soil placement and compaction are still required. Several brands of geotextile stabilization fabric are readily available at local distributors. If stable subgrade soils are exposed at the base of excavations, geotextile stabilization fabric and/or geogrids are not required. Use of geotextile stabilization fabric and/or geogrids will be determined by the District Engineer.
• After subgrade preparation, fill is placed in horizontal, loose lifts and properly compacted. If bridging/reinforcement is needed, a suitable mid-range or better biaxial geogrid product (such as Tencate Miragrid 8XT, Tensar BX1500, StrataGrid SG 550 or equivalent; see Appendix C for the product property data sheets for these examples) is placed beginning at about 2 feet above the stabilization fabric and continuing at about a 2-foot vertical spacing for a minimum of three total geogrid layers or as determined by the District Engineer. Several brands of the mid-range geogrid product are readily available at local distributors. • Embankment and berm materials are placed in horizontal lifts and properly compacted to the specified degree of compaction to provide maximum 6-inch-thick compacted lifts using heavy construction equipment or maximum 4-inch-thick compacted lifts using hand-operated compaction equipment to help achieve stable conditions. The fill is tested for relative compaction in accordance with applicable standards.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 33 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
• All slope backfill is placed and compacted above the slope line and then cut back to finished slope grade. Slope protection (revegetation) is provided for any newly placed fill material. • Interim repairs involving partial levee replacement to the IRDE are constructed to match the waterside toe and slope angle of the adjacent levee segments where feasible. The intent is to present a continuous waterside slope face to potential floodwaters. • Constructing a crown roadway repair includes: 1) sloping (at least 2 percent) the levee crown 5 beneath the aggregate base (AB) surfacing to drain in both directions from the levee’s centerline so as to provide proper drainage, 2) placing an AB surface on the levee crown to the thickness of the adjacent levee crown with a minimum properly compacted thickness of 4 inches, and 3) reusing the existing AB when possible.
• When multiple repairs are required in a single location or levee segment, repair priorities and coordination are established before work begins.
• Sacramento County Office of Emergency Services and/or Board of Supervisors will keep the public informed. The public will be kept apprised of progress and notified following completion of interim repairs as appropriate.
7.2 LONGITUDINAL AND TRANSVERSE CRACKS
Repair of levee cracks typically involves initial determination of the length, width, and depth of the cracks. The length and width will be determined during the initial data gathering, and the depth is determined to the extent possible. Depending on the type and location of the observed cracks, test pits may be necessary, especially if deeper transverse cracks are encountered.
Large cracks in the levee are often indicative of high shear stresses accompanied by excessive deformation. Slope movement causes both longitudinal and transverse cracks. Thus, crack repair is often related to other distress issues on the levee, and repair coordination may dictate incorporating crack repair into the repair procedures for larger deformations. Slope stability is a larger structural problem and is addressed in Sections 7.3 and 7.4. This section addresses activities related only to specific longitudinal and transverse crack repair. Those activities include:
5 Note: The elevation of the waterside levee hinge point, not the levee crown, is considered the top of levee elevation.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 34 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
• Updating/confirming crack dimensions from the initial crack surveys, plotting cracks on a site plan, and evaluating the impact, if any, on the levee’s structural integrity. • For longitudinal cracks (see Sheet LC-1):
1. Excavating a working bench at least 8 feet wide or one equipment width (whichever is greater) in the side slope to a minimum depth of 2 feet on the crack
2. Excavating below the bottom of the crack, as appropriate, with a bucket excavator
3. Backfilling and compacting in thin lifts with a wheel attachment on the excavator to the working bench elevation with the excavated material or an equivalent material
4. Replacing and properly compacting the excavated bench material including benching the fill material into the excavation slope
5. Overfilling with properly compacted fill at the slope face followed by trimming to finished grade
6. Revegetating the slope face to provide slope protection • For transverse cracks (see Sheet TC-1):
1. Excavating a working bench at least 8 feet wide or one equipment width (whichever is greater) below the bottom of the crack
2. Backfilling and compacting, in thin lifts, with the excavated material or an equivalent material
3. Overfilling with properly compacted fill at the slope face followed by trimming to finished grade
4. Grading the levee crown for positive drainage to both sides followed by placing properly compacted AB
5. Revegetating the slope face to provide slope protection • The backfill material for the crack repair and the working bench replacement is the existing levee material or equivalent.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 35 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
• In areas with multiple cracks, the excavation is modified to address the additional cracks (e.g., Sheet LC-1-B).
7.3 SLOPE MOVEMENT AND LATERAL (TOE) SPREADING
Slope movement is often associated with reduction of soil shear strength and/or increased shear stress, both of which can be caused by ground shaking. Levee slope distress can manifest as surface sloughing, a shallow slide through the levee embankment only, a deep-seated slide through the embankment and the foundation material, or mass deformation of the levee. Surface sloughing (to a depth of a few feet) is considered a maintenance issue and is not addressed further here. Most forms of slope movement exhibit a characteristic loss of material at the upper limit of the observed distress and a bulging or spreading at the lower extent of distress.
Once the basic movement is determined, a general plan of repair can be developed and executed.
Typically, the better the information gathered, the more efficient the repair will be. For example, in some cases a deep-seated slide surface may be apparent from a prominent longitudinal crack with vertical offset (head scarp) and a corresponding toe bulge, but the location of the slip surface may not be well defined. A working bench may be cut into the slope at the head scarp to allow for more accurate slip-surface determination using a line of cone penetrometer soundings between the scarp and the slope face. This can provide a relatively quick definition of the slip surface and allow for more efficient repair planning. In this way, less material needs to be moved, and less time is spent on the repair because of the more accurate information.
Slope movement repair includes the following activities (Sheet SS-1):
• Removing slide debris and excavating the existing levee embankment and foundation to below the slip surface (as needed).
• Preparing the subgrade and reconstructing the levee as follows:
Slip surface in the embankment only (no keyway required) – Sheet SS-1-A o For a slip surface in the embankment only (no keyway required), scarifying, moisture conditioning, and recompacting the exposed subgrade to provide a stable base for embankment construction. If unstable subgrade soils are exposed, a suitable, woven, geotextile stabilization fabric or geogrid should be placed.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 36 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
o Placing and properly compacting the fill (existing embankment material or an equivalent material) in horizontal lifts to 2 feet above the subgrade and continuing with properly moisture conditioned and compacted fill placed in maximum 6-inch thick loose lifts. If additional bridging/reinforcement is needed, reinforcing the embankment with a suitable geogrid placed at about a 2-foot vertical spacing for a minimum of three total geogrid layers or as determined by the District Engineer.
Deep-Seated Slides – Sheet SS-1-B through E
o For deep-seated slide repairs, excavating a keyway into the foundation materials, then scarifying, moisture conditioning, and recompacting the exposed subgrade to provide a stable base for embankment construction. If unstable subgrade soils are exposed, a suitable, woven, geotextile stabilization fabric should be placed. o Backfilling the keyway and reconstructing the levee with existing embankment material or an equivalent material, by moisture conditioning and properly compacting the material in horizontal lifts with a maximum loose lift thickness of 6 inches. o If additional bridging/reinforcement is needed, reinforcing the embankment with a suitable geogrid product beginning 2 feet above the stabilization fabric and continuing at about a 2-foot vertical spacing for a minimum of three total geogrid layers or as determined by the District Engineer.
• Overfilling with properly compacted fill at the slope face followed by trimming to finished grade. • Revegetating the slope face to provide slope protection. • Grading the levee crown for positive drainage to both sides followed by placing properly compacted AB.
Note that Sheets SS-1-B and SS-1-E depict the condition of a relatively shallow liquefiable layer in the foundation soils. As a result of liquefaction during an earthquake, the levee support can diminish to the extent that the center of the embankment sags, resulting in a longitudinal tension crack as the two sides pull away from each other.

7.4 WATERSIDE DAMAGES
In the case of seismically induced slope movement on the levee waterside slope when the river stage is high, waterside slope improvement or stabilization may not be feasible for interim repairs. The current preferred approach is to stabilize the remnant levee from the landside to the ULDC interim repair standard by constructing an undrained stability berm similar to that shown on Sheet SS-1-C.
Construction of the berm includes the following activities:
• Stripping the top layer (minimum 6 inches) of the landside slope, as well as the ground surface at the landside toe where the stability berm foundation will be located. • Excavating a keyway into the foundation materials, then scarifying, moisture conditioning, and recompacting the exposed subgrade to provide a stable base for embankment construction. If unstable subgrade soils are exposed, a suitable, woven, geotextile stabilization fabric should be placed.
• Backfilling the keyway and constructing the stability berm with properly moisture conditioned and compacted fill placed in maximum 6-inch thick loose lifts. If additional bridging/reinforcement is needed, reinforcing the berm with a suitable geogrid product beginning 2 feet above the stabilization fabric and continuing at about a 2-foot vertical spacing for a minimum of three total geogrid layers or as determined by the District Engineer. • Overfilling and properly compacting the material at the slope face followed by trimming to finished grade.
• Fill material for the repair is the existing levee material or equivalent material or levee embankment material that meets CVFPB and USACE criteria, as directed by the District Engineer.
• Revegetating the new landside slope to help stabilize the slope face. • Re-establishing the crown road so that ideally there is a 20-foot-wide patrol road with a minimum of 4 inches of compacted AB over a drained subgrade (minimum 2%), and providing a means of transitioning to the patrol road on the adjacent upstream and downstream levee segments whether via a ramp from the crown of the berm (10% maximum grade) or via a toe access road along the berm and landside access ramps to the adjacent levee sections.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 38 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
Some waterside stabilization measures have been considered, including the use of geotubes. Any waterside stabilization alternative must be reviewed and approved by CVFPB and USACE and demonstrate practicality, including the following features and characteristics: 1) effectiveness as a slope and erosion stabilizer, 2) ease of installation by local personnel and equipment, 3) immediate availability, 4) cost effectiveness, and 5) durability/dependability. Waterside stabilization may be a temporary method to provide the required flood protection and may be required to be removed for the permanent repair.
7.5 CROWN SETTLEMENT
Whereas a minor crown depression can be repaired without significant modification to the existing levee geometry, crown settlement is often associated with slope movement and lateral spreading or bulging at the levee toe. Therefore, the repair efforts must be prioritized and coordinated. In general, slope stabilization activities must proceed before crown repair can be completed. Repair activities related to slope stabilization issues are addressed in Sections 7.3 and 7.4. This section addresses activities ranging from repair of simple crown settlement to partial or full replacement for levee collapse. Those activities include:
1. For minor (up to 1 foot) settlement or depression of a levee section (see Sheet CS-1):
• Removing and stockpiling the existing AB surface and then scarifying and recompacting the exposed subgrade (minimum 6 inches).
• Backfilling levee materials with maximum 6-inch thick loose lifts that are properly moisture conditioned and compacted.
• Match the upstream and downstream crown elevation grade with positive side drainage (minimum 2%).
• Fill material for the repair is the existing levee material or equivalent material or levee embankment material that meets CVFPB and USACE criteria, as directed by the District Engineer.
• Placing a minimum 4-inch-thick properly compacted and drained AB surface. • Adjusting the slope grade of the new fill and the existing slope to provide a smooth transition and revegetating any new slope construction.
DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 39 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
2. For larger (up to 6 feet) settlement of a levee section (see Sheet C-1):
• Removing and stockpiling the existing AB surface and then scarifying and recompacting the exposed subgrade (minimum 6 inches).
• Backfilling levee materials with maximum 6-inch thick loose lifts that are properly moisture conditioned and compacted.
• Fill material for the repair is the existing levee material or equivalent material or levee embankment material that meets CVFPB and USACE criteria, as directed by the District Engineer.
• Establishing a final subgrade with a maximum 10% transition grade between the interim repaired levee section and the existing levee segments and a 2% drainage grade to each side.
• Placing a minimum 4-inch-thick properly compacted and drained AB surface. • Adjusting the slope grade of the new fill and the existing slope to provide a smooth transition to upstream and downstream levee crown and slopes and revegetating any new slope construction.
3. For partial to full levee replacement repair for levee collapse, (see Sheet C-1):
• Evaluating the stability of the ground surface for levee replacement under the direction of the District Engineer.
• Removing slide debris and excavating the existing levee embankment and foundation (as needed).
• Excavating a keyway into the foundation materials, then scarifying, moisture conditioning, and recompacting the exposed subgrade to provide a stable base for embankment construction. If unstable subgrade soils are exposed, a suitable, woven, geotextile stabilization fabric should be placed.
• Backfilling the keyway and constructing the embankment with properly moisture conditioned and compacted fill placed in maximum 6-inch thick loose lifts. If additional bridging/reinforcement is needed, reinforcing the embankment with a suitable geogrid product beginning 2 feet above the stabilization fabric and continuing at about a 2-foot DRAFT
24001006.001A/SAC24R167153 Page 40 of 43 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder
vertical spacing for a minimum of three total geogrid layers or as determined by the District Engineer.
• Fill material for the repair is the existing levee material or equivalent material or levee embankment material that meets CVFPB and USACE criteria, as directed by the District Engineer.
• Overfilling and properly compacting the material at the slope face, followed by trimming to finished grade and revegetating all new construction slope faces to provide slope protection.
• Grading the partial replacement (interim) levee crown for positive drainage to both sides, followed by placing a minimum 4-inch thickness of properly compacted and drained AB. • Constructing a means of transitioning to the adjacent upstream and downstream levee segments, whether via a ramp (10% maximum grade) along the interim levee crown or via a toe access road along the interim levee embankment and landside access ramps to the adjacent levee sections.
7.6 SAND BOILS
Sand boils can form due to liquefaction of underlying sandy layers if the water table is high enough and the ground shaking strong enough. The extent of repairs, if any, will be dependent on the size, location, and quantity of sand boils. Note that an earthquake-induced sand boil indicates liquefaction in an underlying aquifer layer, but in and of itself it does not indicate an underseepage deficiency. However, a sand boil could increase underseepage risk since a subsurface pathway is now open to the ground surface. Post-earthquake sand boils encountered by the field inspection teams may be useful in identifying liquefiable zones and will be flagged for review by the District Engineer, who will evaluate whether any interim repairs are necessary.
Sand boils resulting from excessive underseepage pressures have been addressed using the following methods: 1) simply locating and flood-fighting, 2) excavating and backfilling individual sand boils with a sequence of progressively larger cohesionless soil particles (i.e. an inverted filter) to reduce the potential for future piping, and 3) installing more complex remediation measures such as seepage cutoff walls, relief wells, or seepage berms. Refer to the DWR Flood Fighting Methods (DWR, 2024), which include procedures for controlling boils using sack rings.

Determine crack depth at several locations with hand probe, paint or dye penetration, & backhoe/excavator.
Crack excavation should extend 2' below bottom of crack. Cracks that extend below the levee embankment into the foundation should be addressed per plan sheet xx.
Excavate a working bench to allow minimum 2' soil cover over farthest outboard crack.
Starting with the crack farthest up slope, excavate below bench to confirm crack depth & repair crack with embankment trench spoils, or similar imported backfill.
Soil backfilled should be compacted in 6" loose lifts at 97% compaction using ASTM D698. Fill should be benched into excavation slope.
Properly compact backfill & trim back to final grade. Match original or existing slope inclination.
Revegetate slope following CVFPB/Levee Maintenance Agency requirements.
If repair extends to levee crown, replace crown road AB with equivalent depth as existing (minimum 4") & restore to original crown width.

Notes:
NOT TO SCALE
A-TYPICAL SINGLE LONGITUDE CRACK REPAIR
B-TYPICAL MULTIPLE LONGITUDE CRACK REPAIR
Geotextile/Geogrid Placement
14. If unstable subgrade soils are exposed,
a suitable, woven, geotextile stabilization
fabric or geogrid should be placed.
15. If additional bridging/reinforcement is
needed, reinforcing the embankment with a
suitable geogrid placed at about a 2-foot
vertical spacing for a minimum of three total
geogrid layers or as determined by the
District Engineer.
Quality Control Testing
16. In-place density testing should be
performed for all repairs. Testing should be
performed by the nuclear density test
(ASTM D6938) for every 500 cubic yards of
material placed with a minimum of 1 test
per lift. One sand cone density test (ASTM
D1556) should be performed for every 10
nuclear density tests.
17. A sample of material from each test
should be taken to a geotechnical testing
laboratory for moisture density curve
(ASTM D698), sieve analysis (ASTM C136)
and Atterberg limits (ASTM D4318).
Surface Preparation
1.For damaged sections, the existing slope or
ground surface will be prepared for
embankment or berm material placement.
2.Surface preparation will include removing
selected vegetation, debris, downed timber or
tree roots, rubbish, loose soil, and other
obstructions.
3.Remove existing aggregate base (AB) and
stockpile for reuse.
Subgrade
4. A minimum of 6 inches of a slope or ground
surface will be removed as part of the surface
preparation. Additional excavation will be
performed as necessary to remove
damaged/disturbed soils.
5. The exposed subgrade will be scarified to a
depth of 6 inches. To provide a stable base to
work from, subgrade should be moisture
conditioned and compacted to +/-2% of
optimum moisture content and 95% relative
compaction using ASTM D698.
Engineered Fill/Backfill Placement
6. New fill soil should be uncontaminated and have
similar classification to the existing soil.
7. Soil used for backfill should be placed in maximum
6-inch-thick loose lifts.
8. New fill should be benched into the existing levee
in 4 to 12 inch vertical steps with the step width equal to the step height or greater.
9. Fill extending below the original ground surface
should be keyed into the native soil as shown on the
repair details.
10. The fill should be moisture conditioned to +/-2% of optimum moisture content using ASTM D698.
11. The fill should be compacted using construction
equipment and should achieve 97% relative
compaction using ASTM D698.
Grading
12. The fill should be placed and compacted above
the slope grade and then trimmed to final grade.
Match original or existing slope inclination, then
revegetate slope following CVFPB/LMA requirements.
13. If repair extends to levee crown, replace crown
road AB with equivalent depth as existing (minimum
4-inch depth) and restore to original crown width.

If the tensile crack is outside of the interim levee landside slope or landsideslope projected below the ground surface, see Detail A for long term repair. This condition assumes the undamaged levee belowthe Interim Repair Design Elevation is large enough to encompass the minimum interim levee dimensions shown in Detail A.If a tensile crack is within the interim levee landside slope or landside slope projected below the ground surface, see Detail B fortypical repair.Depth and width of excavation to be selected based on evaluation of embankment/foundation conditions causing slopeinstability and should encompass the entire failure plane. Minimum depth is 3 feet into foundation material and 1 foot belowbottom of failure plane.Key-in material should be similar type as foundation soil and should not create a bathtub or seepage block condition. Useone layer of mid-range, geotextile stabilization/separation fabric under repair section, if needed for stability.Embankment material to be same as existing or higher permeability than embankment to avoid a seepage blockcondition. Gap-graded materials that may allow material migration should not be used. Reinforce new fill with mid-rangegeogrid product beginning with the first lift and continuing at a 2-foot vertical spacing for three total geogrid layers ifneeded for stability or as directed by District Engineer.Refer to Sheet G-1 for general construction guidelines.See Report Sections 7.1 and 7.3 for additional guidance.

Kleinfelder Project # 24001006.001A
Dear Mr. Tibbitts,
Kleinfelder has been tasked by the Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency (SAFCA) with evaluating the seismic vulnerability of the Sacramento area levees located in Sacramento and Sutter Counties, California in support of the Urban Levee of Protection (ULDC) (DWR, 2012) level certification effort. As part of this project, a Post-Earthquake Response Plan (PERP) has been prepared to assist SAFCA in planning a response to earthquake damaged levees. This appendix to the PERP addresses the anticipated effects of a seismic event on the North Area Streams (NAS) levee segments found to have High Vulnerability in the Seismic Performance Summary Report (SPSR) that was prepared for the NAS area. This includes estimating the amount and extent of damage done to the levee and the approximate quantity of earth material needed to restore the levee to a sufficient level of protection against the 10- year flood, as well as the quantity of material to restore the existing top of levee.
Sincerely,
KLEINFELDER, INC.

The NAS basin, as shown in Figure D-1, features the American River as a major stream and Natomas East Main Drainage Canal (NEMDC), Arcade Creek, Robla Creek, and Dry Creek as minor streams. In total, four seismic levee segments along the American River North Levee (ARNL) were found to have High Vulnerability: Segment 8 (Station 3016+00 to 3044+48), Segment 10 (Station 3085+35 to 3088+60), Segment 13 (Station 3167+50 to 3306+00), and Segment 15 (Station 3458+85 to 3482+50). The remaining segments were found to have Low Vulnerability and are described further in the SPSR (Kleinfelder, 2024).
The PERP addresses criteria identified in Section 7.7 Seismic Vulnerability and Section 7.7.1 Intermittently Loaded Levees of the Urban Levee Design Criteria (ULDC) published by the State of California Department of Water Resources (DWR) (DWR, 2012). The subject high vulnerability levees were classified by the Urban Levee Evaluation Project (ULE) (URS, 2015) as intermittently loaded, as they do not experience a water surface elevation of one foot or higher above the elevation of the levee toe at least once a day for more than 36 days per year on average. For intermittently loaded levees, if seismic damage from 200-year-return-period ground motions is expected, the ULDC requires that a PERP be developed as part of a flood safety plan (FSP) developed in coordination with pertinent local, state, and federal agencies.
The PERP includes an initial estimate of the amount and extent of damage that might be sustained following an earthquake with a 200-year-return-period. It also provides an estimate of the amount of earth and other materials that would be necessary for interim repairs, as well as the amount needed to restore the full levee prism to pre-earthquake elevations and dimensions during long-term repair.
Borrow sites and haul routes for repair construction were provided by MBK Engineers (MBK). Per the ULDC, interim repairs are defined as those necessary to restore the levee system’s grade and dimensions within 8 weeks and sufficient for protection against the 10-year flood, with 3 feet of freeboard [referred to herein as the Interim Repair Design Elevation (IRDE)]. Levee grade and dimensions for interim repairs have been assumed to equal the minimum levee prism defined in Section
1 A PERP addresses medium and high vulnerability levees. The NAS basin levees did not include any medium vulnerability levees.

7.7.1 of the ULDC: a crown width of 20 feet for major levees and levee slopes of 3H:1V waterside and landside.
The PERP uses 200-year-return-period ground motions. However, it is acknowledged that earthquakes exceeding the 200-year return period are possible. Although the subject levee system has not been analyzed for such ground motions, it is likely that the potential locations of damage expected from 200- year-return-period ground motions would also be considered the most likely damage locations for more severe ground motions.

2 SCOPE
______________________________________________________________________________________________
This Appendix to the PERP assesses only the four NAS levee segments with High Vulnerability for seismic failure. The remaining segments were found to have Low Vulnerability and are described further in the SPSR (Kleinfelder, 2024).
This Appendix describes the expected seismically induced damages and failure modes for each of these NAS segments along ARNL. Based on these expected damages, estimates are included for the amount of material required to restore each segment’s grade and dimensions to sufficiently protect against the IRDE, as well as the amount needed to restore the full levee prism during long-term repairs. The Appendix also discusses the causes and effects of potential damages on the levee prism and cutoff walls.
For response and repair procedures, refer to Sections 4 through 7 of the PERP main report.

3 POTENTIAL SEISMICALLY INDUCED DAMAGES
______________________________________________________________________________________________
As described in the PERP, seismic loading may induce strength losses within the levee and/or foundation, resulting in slumping, vertical displacement, and cracking. Overtopping during high water events can occur when freeboard is lost. As a result, it is necessary to estimate the location and severity of levee failures instigated by a seismic event. The actual degree and patterns of damage will vary with the local soil conditions and seismic response, the magnitude of ground shaking, the groundwater level, and the water level against the levee (if any).
In 2015, a Geotechnical Evaluation Report (GER) (URS, 2015) for the American River Study Area evaluated ARNL segments 8, 10, 13, and 15 as having High Vulnerability to a 200-year return period seismic event – which was a magnitude 6.5 and peak horizontal acceleration (PHA) of 0.13g to 0.15g.
This classification was due to likely liquefiable layers above Elevation 0 feet (per NAVD88 datum 2 ) with
low residual undrained strengths, which affected the levee strength and stability. Based on the Kleinfelder update of the regional ground motion hazard analysis, the PHA ranges from 0.12g to 0.14g associated with a controlling earthquake magnitude of 6.8 in the NAS SPSR (Kleinfelder, 2024). However, the extents, thicknesses, and strengths of these likely liquefiable layers were found to be the same for the updated ground motion values. As described in the SPSR, the 2024 evaluation used the same seismic analysis water surface elevations (WSEs), typically the mean winter groundwater elevations, as the 2015 study for each segment. This was because the 2015 WSEs were higher in elevation than the current mean winter groundwater elevations and would provide conservative results for liquefaction. Therefore, the 2015 GER models of the segments were used as the basis for estimating the damages.
MBK provided estimates of the ULDC Design Water Surface Elevation (DWSE), Minimum Top of Levee (MTOL), Hydraulic Top of Levee (HTOL), existing top of levee, and 10-year WSE for ARNL and the Lower American River (MBK, 2024). These values are provided in Table A-1 of Attachment 1 and were used to model the geometry and estimate the volumes needed for interim and long-term repair. 2024 Psomas point elevations of the landside levee toe at each segment are also included in Table A-1 and were used to estimate levee height. Finally, Table A-1 includes freeboard calculations to support the damage classifications discussed in Section 5 of the PERP main report.

Post-earthquake levee inspections should be performed as discussed in Section 5 of the PERP main report. Recommended prioritization of inspection of levee segments are shown below.
• Priority 1 - High vulnerability segments with estimated crest deformations below the IRDE, as shown on Figure D-4
• Priority 2 - Long-term levee repair areas not previously inspected, as shown on Figure D-5 • Priority 3 - American River North levee segments (AR) not previously inspected, as shown on Figure D-1
• Priority 4 - NEMDC, Arcade Creek, Robla Creek, and Dry Creek levee segments (NMDE 1 through 8), as shown on Figure D-1
Transitions are also an area of focus for post-earthquake levee inspections. These are discussed in Section D.3.4.
3.1 SEGMENT ANALYSES
Sections D.3.1.1 through D.3.1.4 describe the geometry of each High Vulnerability segment and the damages estimated as a result of a magnitude 6.8 earthquake. Flow failure is expected to damage Segments 8 and 10 with large seismic deformations, and freeboard loss from seismic deformation is expected for Segments 13 and 15. The amount of levee material damaged was estimated using the elevations provided by MBK and the segment geometry from the 2015 American River GER. Finally, estimates are provided for the amount of material needed to restore each segment to the existing top of levee (long-term) and to the interim minimum levee prism defined in Section 7.7.1 of the ULDC: a crest at the IRDE, a crown width of 20 feet, and levee slopes of at minimum 3H:1V waterside and landside. This ULDC geometry, with the crest at the existing top of levee elevation instead of the IRDE, was also used for long term repairs.
According to the ULDC (DWR, 2012), the interim repairs should be sufficient to restore an adequate level of flood protection within eight weeks. If seismic damage to the levee system would be so significant and widespread that it would be infeasible to restore the levee to the IRDE grade and dimensions within eight weeks, then seismic strengthening is required to provide the urban level of flood protection.
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 6 of 21 April 18, 2025

The MTOL values listed in Table A-1 of Attachment 1 are the minimum levee crest elevations required to provide protection against the 200-year flood. The existing top of levee values in Table A-1 of Attachment 1 exceed their corresponding MTOL value by at least 1 foot in elevation. Because the ARNL features high freeboard values, repairing the crest to the MTOL would build the levee to a lower elevation than the upstream and downstream crown. Therefore, the long-term volume estimates were calculated using the higher, pre-earthquake existing top of levee elevation instead of the MTOL.
Regarding freeboard, it should be noted that in some locations, the levee landside toe elevation (Psomas, 2024) exceeds the IRDE, and Table A-1 presents freeboard above IRDE as greater than 100% of the levee height. Additionally, some elevations recorded by Psomas were very close to or exceeded the top of levee elevations due to the presence of high ground or a berm, calculating levee height as less than 1 foot. To more accurately estimate levee height for the section, these elevations were replaced with estimates based on nearby toe elevations; these estimates are italicized and described in Table A-1.
3.1.1 Segment 8 (2,848 Feet Long)
Segment 8 lies between levee alignment Stations (STA) 3016+00 and 3044+48 and is located southeast of California State Route 160. The levee geometry and cross section for the 2015 American River Study Area ULE GER (URS, 2015a) includes a crest elevation of 44 feet and a soil-bentonite (SB) cutoff wall built to tip Elevation -5 feet per NAVD88. Based on SPT-based liquefaction analyses performed using information from soil borings taken at the segment, a Likely Liquefiable layer exists from Elevation 0 to
15.5 feet.
A post-seismic stability analysis performed by URS modeled the levee at STA 3025+00 (URS, 2015a). The post-seismic slope stability factors of safety for the levee waterside were less than 1 for the wedge and circular failure planes provided in the GER. However, these two planes do not represent the widest possible slip surface the levee could fail along; they only show the failure planes with the smallest FOS values. Therefore, as a conservative estimate for the purpose of providing embankment repair quantities, it was assumed the widest failure plane would extend to the levee landside toe, and the whole prism would be lost to flow failure or severely damaged to the point that it no longer functioned as a levee.
It is acknowledged that the as-built levee segment has a soil-cement-cement-bentonite (SCCB) wall installed instead of the SB wall used in the aforementioned analysis (USACE, 1999). Because the strength of a SCCB wall is typically higher than a SB wall, the failure plane shape may be different from the
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 7 of 21 April 18, 2025
© 2024 Kleinfelder www.kleinfelder.com
assumed failure plane. Refer to Section D.3.6 for further details on the effects of levee deformation on the seepage cutoff wall.
As shown on Sheet C-1 in the repair schematics of Appendix A of the PERP, in the event of riverbank collapse and/or instability, the levee embankment should be setback on firm, stable ground as directed by the District Engineer. For consistency, this appendix assumes the stable ground elevation matches the landside toe elevation of the Segment 8 cross section from the ULE American River GER, which is approximately Elevation 27.3 feet (URS, 2015a). The actual ground elevation is expected to vary across the span of the segment, which would change the total volume estimate.
Construction of a replacement levee prism requires excavation to 3 feet below the original ground surface and 3 feet beyond the projected waterside and landside levee toes. After constructing the new foundation, the interim levee should be rebuilt with at minimum 3H:1V slopes and a 20-foot crown width up to the IRDE. For these American River North Levee segments, long-term repair crown elevations should match the original Top of Levee (TOL). Refer to Details B and C on Sheet C-1 of the PERP.
Table A-1 of Attachment 1 contains MBK’s 10-year WSE and TOL elevations for ARNL at 100-foot intervals beginning at Station 3000+00. These values vary from Elevation 37.77 to 38.41 feet across the span of Segment 8. To estimate the total volume of the interim repair levee across Segment 8, the following steps were performed and the results are shown in Table A-2 of Attachment 1:
• Calculate the IRDE at each 100-foot interval by adding 3 feet to the 10-year WSE. • Assume the bottom of the interim repair levee prism is at Elevation 27.3 feet (Segment 8 landside toe from the ULE GER cross section).
• Calculate the difference between the IRDE and Elevation 27.3 feet for each interval. This is the levee height, denoted as “(d)” in Figures 1 and 2 below. • Calculate the cross-sectional area of the ULDC interim levee prism using the equation in Figure 1 (geometry based on the ULDC requirements):
Figure 1 – Levee Prism Area Calculation (Square Feet)
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 8 of 21 April 18, 2025

- Calculate the cross-sectional area of the foundation using Figure 2 (geometry based on Sheet C- 1 in Appendix A of the PERP):
Figure 2 – Levee Foundation Area Calculation (Square Feet)
• Multiply each area by 100 feet to calculate the levee volume at each interval, then convert cubic feet to cubic yards.
o The final interval, from STA 3044+00 to 3044+48, was multiplied by 48 feet instead of 100 feet.
• Sum the interim levee prism and foundation volumes of each interval. • Round the total volume up to the nearest 1,000 cubic yards to account for variation in levee height across the segment, ramps used during construction, and other uses of additional fill.
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 9 of 21 April 18, 2025

Using this procedure, approximately 60,000 cubic yards of levee material is needed for the interim levee prisms and an additional 28,000 cubic yards are needed for the foundation. In total, approximately 88,000 cubic yards of levee material are needed to construct the minimum levee prism for the IRDE.
The long-term repair volume was estimated similarly to the interim volume. Instead of using the difference between the IRDE and Elevation 27.3 feet for the height (d) in Figures 1 and 2, the difference between the TOL and Elevation 27.3 feet was used. The results are shown in Table A-3 in Attachment 1:
approximately 128,000 cubic yards for the prism and 40,000 cubic yards for the foundation.
Approximately 168,000 cubic yards of levee material (which includes the 88,000 cubic yards for interim repair) would be required to restore the segment to the existing top of levee, which provides the 200- year level of flood protection. If unstable subgrade soils are exposed, a suitable, woven, geotextile stabilization fabric or geogrid should be placed. If additional bridging/reinforcement is needed, reinforcing the embankment with a suitable geogrid placed at about a 2-foot vertical spacing for a minimum of three total geogrid layers or as determined by the District Engineer.
As explained on Sheet C-1 in Appendix A of the PERP, in the event of riverbank instability and/or collapse, the levee embankment should be setback on firm, stable ground as directed by the District Engineer. The repair volumes may therefore be greater or smaller than the estimates provided here depending on if the ground elevation is below or above the elevation of the original landside toe.
3.1.2 Segment 10 (325 Feet Long)
Segment 10 lies between STA 3085+35 and 3088+60 (325 feet long) and is located east of where the Union Pacific Railroad tracks cross the levee. This segment was determined as having High Vulnerability due to liquefiable layers identified by low blow counts in levee crest Boring 2F-11-164. It is acknowledged that the adjacent borings located in Segments 9 and 11 feature significantly higher blow counts and non-liquefiable layers, so seismically induced damage is anticipated to be limited to the extent of Segment 10.
Based on the boring logs, levee geometry, and liquefaction analysis information from the 2015 American River Study Area ULE GER (URS, 2015a), an approximately 8-foot-thick Likely Liquefiable silty sand layer with low residual undrained strength extends from Elevation 8.0 to 16.0 feet. It was assumed the segment would experience flow failure extending from the landside toe to beyond the waterside toe, similar to Segment 8, and the levee would need to be rebuilt on firm, stable ground. Using the
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 10 of 21 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder www.kleinfelder.com
aforementioned levee geometry information from the GER, the landside toe elevation is at approximately Elevation 29.0 feet.
The volume calculations used the same procedure described for Segment 8 in Section D.3.1.1. The stable ground elevation was assumed to be Elevation 29.0 feet. The interval calculations are shown for the interim repair in Table A-4 and long-term repair in Table A-5 in Attachment 1. Across the span of Segment 10, approximately 10,000 cubic yards of levee material are needed for the interim repair.
Approximately 21,000 cubic yards (including the 10,000 used for interim repair) are needed for long- term repair.
As explained in the schematics in Appendix A of the PERP, in the event of riverbank instability and/or collapse, the levee embankment should be setback on firm, stable ground as directed by the District Engineer. The repair volumes may be greater or smaller than the estimates provided here depending on if the elevation of the firm, stable ground is below or above the elevation of the original landside toe.
Additionally, deformation is expected to damage the existing soil-cement-bentonite (SCB) seepage cutoff wall within the segment; refer to Section D.3.6.
3.1.3 Segment 13 (13,850 Feet Long)
Segment 13 lies between STA 3167+50 and 3306+00 (13,850 feet long) and extends from the Cal Expo area to approximately 1,000 feet east of Howe Avenue. Per the 2015 URS GER, the segment has an 11- foot-thick Likely Liquefiable layer 18 feet below the landside toe with an estimated residual undrained strength 160 pounds per square foot (psf). A post-seismic stability analysis on the STA 3238+00 cross section determined the levee was unlikely to collapse from flow failure, but the waterside stability analyses had a factor of safety above 1.0 but less than 1.3, which required deformation analysis.
Following the procedure shown on the Figure D-2 flowchart, this analysis produced a Newmark displacement of 6 feet with an estimated freeboard loss of 4.2 feet; crest displacement was 35 percent relative to the landside levee height.
A review of the subsurface information available determined the cross section and liquefiable layer appropriately represented the full segment. The NAS SPSR (Kleinfelder, 2024) performed analysis using the same Peak Horizontal Acceleration values as the 2015 ULE, so the seismic coefficients Ky and Kmax were not changed from 2015. However, because the NAS SPSR (Kleinfelder, 2024) analyzed ARNL using magnitude 6.8 instead of 6.5, the resulting Newmark displacement was updated to 7.5 feet using Figure D-3 (adapted from the ULE DWR chart), and the estimated freeboard loss became 5.3 feet (70% of Newmark displacement).
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 11 of 21 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder www.kleinfelder.com
To determine which portions of the levee would not meet the IRDE after post-seismic displacement, the existing top of levee with 5.3 feet of freeboard removed was compared to the IRDE in Table A-1 of Attachment 1. Upon applying the freeboard loss of 5.3 feet, 7,300 feet of the 13,850-foot-long levee fell below the IRDE. The deformed sections are not continuous and are expected to settle to different depths below the IRDE. The portions of the Segment 13 levee which would deform beneath the IRDE are displayed on Figure D-4, Initial Post-Earthquake Inspection Areas. The full segment is displayed on Figure D-5, Long-Term Levee Repair Areas. Table A-6 in Attachment 1 displays the difference between the IRDE and crest elevations after deformation for every 100 feet of the segment (column “d”). Three assumptions were made to estimate the volume lost below the IRDE: the crest width was 25 feet (the maximum width recorded in the segment range) throughout Segment 13, the repairs would keep the same inclination as the existing slopes (waterside 3H:1V, landside 2H:1V), and the deformation calculated at the beginning station continued for the next 100 feet. The cross-sectional area of the repair prism was determined as shown in the calculation attached to Table A-6 in Attachment 1. As with the Segment 8 and 10 calculations, the area of each interval was multiplied by 100 feet to calculate volume.
Ultimately, approximately 4,000 cubic yards of levee material are needed to restore the deformed sections of Segment 13 to the IRDE. As shown in Table A-6 of Attachment 1, the additional volume needed to restore the existing top of levee was also calculated for each 100-foot section. Approximately 105,000 more cubic yards of material are required for long-term restoration to the original top of levee and levee slopes, which results in a total long-term material volume need of approximately 109,000 cubic yards and provides the 200-year level of flood protection. Additionally, deformation is expected to damage the SCB seepage cutoff wall within the segment; refer to Section D.3.6.
3.1.4 Segment 15 (2,365 Feet Long)
Segment 15 lies between STA 3458+85 and 3482+50 (2,365 feet) and is located approximately 2 miles northeast of Watt Avenue. Per the 2015 ULE evaluation, the segment has a 12-foot-thick Likely Liquefiable layer 38 feet below the landside and waterside toes with an estimated residual undrained strength of 240 psf. A post-seismic stability analysis on the STA 3470+00 cross section determined the levee was unlikely to collapse from flow failure, but the waterside slope required deformation analysis.
This analysis produced a Newmark displacement of 4.5 feet with an estimated freeboard loss of 3.2 feet; crest displacement was 39 percent relative to the landside levee height.
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 12 of 21 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder www.kleinfelder.com
A review of the subsurface information available determined the cross section and liquefiable layer appropriately represented the full segment. The NAS SPSR (Kleinfelder, 2024) performed analysis using the same Peak Horizontal Acceleration values as the 2015 ULE, so the seismic coefficients described in the Figure D-2 flowchart were not changed from 2015. However, because the NAS SPSR (Kleinfelder, 2024) analyzed ARNL using magnitude 6.8 instead of 6.5, the resulting Newmark displacement was updated to 5.5 feet using Figure D-3, and the estimated freeboard loss became 3.9 feet (70% of Newmark displacement).
To determine which portions of the levee would not meet the IRDE after post-seismic displacement, the existing top of levee with 3.9 feet of freeboard removed was compared to the IRDE. Upon applying the freeboard loss of 3.9 feet, no section of the segment fell below the IRDE. The levee remains with at least
4.5 feet of freeboard throughout the segment, as shown in Table A-7 in Attachment 1. However, the deformation is expected to damage the seepage cutoff wall, as described further in Section D.3.6. Based on the area of a representative levee prism with height 3.9 feet, crest width 20 feet, landside slope 2H:1V, and waterside slope 3H:1V (116 square feet, as calculated in Table A-7 in Attachment 1), long- term restoration to the original top of levee and levee slopes requires approximately 11,000 cubic yards of material, which provides the 200-year level of flood protection. Segment 15 is displayed on Figure D- 5, Long-Term Levee Repair Areas.
3.2 SEISMICALLY INDUCED SETTLEMENT
Certain parts of the levee system have been identified as potentially susceptible to seismically induced strength loss. This was determined using estimates of in-situ soil strengths, including residual strengths for layers likely to liquefy, and estimating the levee and foundation soils response to anticipated ground shaking from a 200-year-return-period earthquake. Based on this information, the approximate locations and extents of potential seismically induced levee settlement were identified along each segment.
Representative cross sections of the potentially susceptible reaches of the levee system were analyzed for slope failure modes. The remaining freeboard after potential failure was estimated by determining the “ULDC prism” that could fit into the remnant portion of the levee cross-section, assumed to be undamaged. The “ULDC prism” used in the analyses was a trapezoidal levee cross section with a 20-foot- wide crown at the IRDE and 3H:1V levee slopes. As described in Sections D.3.1.1 through D.3.1.4, settlement from deformation and/or flow failure is anticipated for over 2.4 total miles of the ARNL.
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 13 of 21 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder www.kleinfelder.com
The soil quantity for needed repairs along a given levee reach (cubic yards) was estimated by comparing the representative remaining ULDC prism to the required minimum post-earthquake levee dimensions needed to meet the IRDE. Segments 8 and 10 were anticipated to fail completely from waterside slope instability. For these segments, the volumes of interim and long-term repair levees were calculated based on the ULDC requirements, the American River WSEs provided by MBK, and the segment geometry information from the ULE American River GER. To find the square footage of material needed for repairs at Segment 13, the difference between the estimated post-settlement elevation and IRDE was multiplied by the maximum crest width recorded for the segment, as described in Section D.3.3 and Table A-6 in Attachment 1. The long-term repair volumes for Segments 13 and 15 were calculated using freeboard loss, representative crest width, and segment length.
Table 3-1 summarizes the levee reaches with estimated potential for seismically induced settlement due to ground shaking from a 200-year-return-period earthquake. The table indicates the height of the estimated remaining ULDC prism within the estimated remnant levee and the estimated fill volume required to meet the IRDE.

Notes:
1 – American River North stationing is based on the system established by URS for ULE. Stationing begins at the south end of Natomas East Main Drainage Canal (NEMDC) East at STA 3000+00 and runs eastward toward the Carmichael area, terminating at STA 3582+70.
Because of the variability of soil properties within the levee system, it is unlikely that all the levee sections in Tables 3-1 and 3-2 would experience severe deformation to the same degree, or that a damaged section would “run out,” leaving only the remnant prism. In addition, soil from portions of the damaged levee will likely be usable for the interim levee repairs. Therefore, the estimated levee repair fill volumes in Table 3-1 are intended to provide conservative estimates for those reaches that are considered potentially susceptible to damage during seismic shaking. Fill volume actually used would be determined based on post-earthquake inspections and subsequent engineering analyses as appropriate.
Needed fill from borrow sites would depend on the ability to reuse existing levee materials. It is anticipated that some interim-repair levee fill could come from reuse of existing levee materials if they are deemed suitable by the District Engineer.
3.3 CUTOFF WALL DAMAGES
Seepage cutoff walls previously installed at each levee segment are susceptible to damage resulting from seismic loading effects. The seepage cutoff walls along ARNL are typically two to three feet wide and are covered by a clay cap of thickness two to four feet. The cutoff walls installed in 2000 between STA 3051+00 and 3485+78 extend approximately 60 to 72 feet below the levee crest (USACE, 1999), while the cutoff walls installed in 2013 between STA 3000+00 and 3051+00 were built to approximately
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 15 of 21 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder www.kleinfelder.com
40 to 55 feet below the crest (KGJV, 2012). Table 3-3 below displays each segment with the type and elevation of cutoff wall for its representative cross section.

Flow failure and deformation are expected to impact the upper portions of the seepage cutoff walls. In the post-seismic stability waterside analyses performed by URS, the failure planes cut through the seepage cutoff wall near the bottom of the Likely Liquefiable Layer for Segments 8 and 10. Damage to the upper portion of the seepage cutoff wall is also possible due to deformation. As part of post-seismic event damage reconnaissance, the seepage cutoff walls should be evaluated by the District Engineer or their designee to assess the need, extent, and types of seepage cutoff wall repair.
Reconstruction of seepage cutoff walls may be necessary for long-term levee remediation to meet ULDC. Shallow damage less than 5 feet below the levee base can likely be replaced with a key trench for a new levee embankment. The construction procedures include degrading the levee to a working platform elevation, installing the wall to the design tip elevation, and rebuilding the levee crown.
Seepage cutoff wall options include open-trench slurry-based designs such as soil-bentonite (SB) walls and drill-based installations such as deep mix method (DMM) walls.
3.4 SEISMICALLY INDUCED CRACKING
Because of the various factors affecting cracking, it is difficult to provide a definitive prediction of crack formation at ARNL. This section calls attention to some, but not all, areas which may develop cracking based on their higher susceptibility to the factors outlined in Section 3.7.1 of the PERP main report.
Figure D-4 shows the locations identified as having the highest potential to fall beneath the IRDE; these areas at minimum should be part of the initial inspection.
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 16 of 21 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder www.kleinfelder.com
One historical observation of cracking was observed within Segment 8 during the February 1986 storm event. Longitudinal cracks of two-inch width and 18-inch maximum depth on the levee waterside were reported between STA 3023+00 and 3037+00 (USACE, 2024; URS, 2015). The investigation performed by USACE and Wahler Associates concluded the cracking likely resulted from saturation subsidence due to weakly bonded or poorly compacted levee fill. This area was degraded and reconstructed for slag- cement-cement-bentonite cutoff wall installation by USACE in 2013.
Transitions in geometry along the levee may constitute locations with higher likelihood for cracking.
Table A-8 in Attachment 1, retrieved from the American River North Supplemental Geotechnical Data Report (URS 2015), lists ranges of ARNL designated by their geometric properties, including typical heights, slopes, and crest widths. While Segments 8 and 10 are entirely within one Station Range, transitions between ranges occur within Segments 13 and 15. The stations listed below separate one range of general geometric properties from another based on the following characteristics:
• Segment 13: STA 3183+00
o Waterside: Decrease in general height, increase in slope verticality. o Landside: Increase in general height, decrease in slope verticality. • Segment 13: STA 3263+00
o Waterside: Increase in general height.
o Landside: Increase in general height.
• Segment 15: STA 3460+00
o Waterside: Decrease in general height, increase in slope verticality. o Landside: Decrease in general height.
Changes in geometry occur throughout ARNL, and the above stations do not constitute all areas of transition. For instance, Table A-8 in Attachment 1 notes that between STA 3153+00 and 3183+00, much of which is Segment 13, the typical levee height is 5 or 10 feet, indicating abrupt height changes within the range. Areas featuring manmade structures, including street crossings, bridges, turnouts, ramps, structure abutments, and utilities may have been widened or narrowed as well. Table A-1 in Attachment 1 includes the top of levee elevation at every 100 feet of ARNL, as well as locations indicating significant crossings, bridges, and overpasses at certain stations. Maps and past construction plans should be reviewed to determine additional points of geometric change.
Pertaining to below the levee, each seismic segment is differentiated by its representative subsurface stratigraphy. Based on boring logs and SPT liquefaction calculations, all four segments discussed in this
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 17 of 21 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder www.kleinfelder.com
report feature at least one Likely Liquefiable (LL) layer of thickness 8 to 15 feet. In the URS 2015 post- seismic stability analyses for Segments 8, 13, and 15, the failure plane terminated at the bottom elevation of each segment’s upper Likely Liquefiable layer. The analysis described in Section D.3.1.2 assumed the same behavior for Segment 10 based on its stratigraphic similarity to Segment 15. The upper Likely Liquefiable layers are summarized in Table 3-4.

It is crucial to note that the characteristic cross sections are based on locations with the highest vulnerability, as determined by the boring logs and liquefaction calculations. Damage requiring interim repair is primarily expected at the reaches displayed on Figure D-4. Total slope stability failure and settlement as described in Sections D.3.1.1 through D.3.1.4 may not occur continuously along the entire length of the segment. However, liquefied layers may still result in longitudinal cracks along the crest due to settlement, and transverse cracks may develop adjacent to failed and non-failed portions of the levee. It is assumed that significant damage would occur at the cross-section stations listed in Table 3-4, but cracking of various lengths and depths may occur at any location due to the factors described in Section 3.7.1 of the PERP main report.
3.5 LEVEE REPAIR MATERIALS
Locations of potential borrow areas and/or stockpiles that could provide the materials needed for interim repairs have been identified. The priority will be to utilize on-site levee materials to repair the damaged levee sections. Where deformed materials are not able to be reused, then borrow materials referenced in Section 3.4 will be transported to the site and used for interim repairs. For immediate response situations, American River Flood Control District (ARFCD) maintains the following stockpiles:
• Limited stockpiles of aggregate base (AB) for roadway repair (10 cy), sand for sandbags (10 cy), and clay soil for levee structure repairs (100 cy) at the RD maintenance yard.
24001006.001A/SAC24R167155 Page 18 of 21 April 18, 2025 © 2024 Kleinfelder www.kleinfelder.com
• Clay soil stockpile (100 cy) by Unit 8 for levee structure repairs. • Cobble stockpile (40 cy, up to 8-in size) for slope protection by Pump Station 3 (Unit 9).
SAFCA has also identified additional borrow sources which are listed in Section 3.4 of the PERP main report. Attachment 2, Potential Borrow and Stockpile Sources, shows locations of potential borrow areas and stockpiles that could provide larger quantities of materials needed for interim and long term repairs as well as preliminary haul routes to the relatively centrally located Cal Expo levee access which is located in the middle of three identified seismic deformation zones. The temporary stockpile location at Cal Expo is generally centrally located in close proximity to the levee segments and ramp access points. Additional ramps and access points can be construction to access the critical repair areas, as needed to expedite repair. The three proposed borrow sources have been screened for geotechnical properties and environmental contaminates and accepted for use as fill material for on-going USACE levee projects. Therefore, additional testing is not considered necessary at this time. However, these are active borrow sites and additional screening maybe necessary when the PERP is reviewed as part of the 5-year certification review process since these borrow sites are active and material availability may change over time.
3.6 EMERGENCY PREPARATIONS AND RESPONSE PROVISIONS
The Levee Maintaining Agency for the American River North Levee is the American River Flood Control District (ARFCD). The ARFCD Flood Safety Plan (FSP) outlines plans and procedures to address flooding induced by an earthquake. Refer to PERP Sections 4 through 7 for general emergency response provisions and levee repair guidelines.
