No contractor or subcontractor may be awarded a contract for public work on a public works project, unless registered with the Department of Industrial Relations pursuant to Labor Code section 1725.5. Contractors MUST be a registered "public works contractor" with the DIR AT THE TIME OF BID. Where the prime contract is less than $15,000 for maintenance work or less than $25,000 for construction alternation, demolition or repair work, registration is not required.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on a Resolution Ordering the Vacation of an Electric Easement and Wire Clearance Easement at 2690 Scott Boulevard
COUNCIL PILLAR
Promote and Enhance Economic, Housing, and Transportation Development
BACKGROUND
On November 8, 2013, the Architectural Committee approved the construction of a 20,219 SF office building (Project) at 2690 Scott Boulevard (Property) for Botham Construction (Owner). The Project was conditioned to vacate the existing electric and wire clearance easements on the Property as they conflict with the new building footprint. A conditional building permit release was issued on November 8, 2013 to allow for the issuance of the building permit with the condition that the easement be vacated prior to final building inspection or occupancy. For reasons unknown, the building permit was finalized, and the easements were not vacated. The Owner completed the construction of the Project in 2014 and a new underground electrical easement was dedicated to serve the site. On November 1, 2021, the Owner reached out to the City to request the outstanding easement be vacated as a cleanup item for their property.
DISCUSSION
Due to the redevelopment of the Property, the existing electric easement and wire clearance easement encumbering the Property have been relocated or determined to be excess, and these easements are no longer necessary. The Owner has requested that the City vacate the subject easements to clear these unnecessary encumbrances on the Property. Any relevant facilities previously within said easement have been removed or abandoned. Silicon Valley Power, the only agency having an interest in the easements, concurs that these easements are eligible to be vacated. Staff has reviewed this proposal and found that these easements are no longer necessary for public purposes and therefore recommend that they be vacated according to subsection C of California Streets and Highways Code Section 8333.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15332, In-fill Development Projects.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no additional cost to the City other than staff time and expense.
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the City Attorney’s Office and Silicon Valley Power.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on Award of a Purchase Order to American Truck & Trailer Body Co. for Automated Valve Operators and Installation Services
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
The Water & Sewer Utilities Department (Department) delivers potable water to approximately 26,000 residential, commercial, and industrial customers. In doing so, Department staff maintains, rehabilitates, repairs, or replaces approximately 335 miles of potable water mains throughout the City. These water mains are controlled by valves that can control, direct and regulate water flow in pipes.
The valve turning equipment is used to exercise main line valves throughout the distribution system to assure reliable operation and maintain water quality. It is used during routine water main replacement and emergency main breaks to stop water flow to the segment(s) being replaced.
During an emergency main break, the valve turning equipment will play the vital role of stopping the flow of water, thereby mitigating property damage in the area. This equipment will make the process safer and more efficient. Having multiple pieces of equipment provides the redundancy necessary in a water distribution system.
DISCUSSION
Pursuant to City Code Section 2.105.330, a formal Request for Bids (RFB) was conducted as the solicitation method for this procurement, with the award recommendation based on the “lowest bid”.
In April 2022, the RFB for the purchase and installation services of three (3) automated valve operators was issued using the City’s e-procurement platform. A total of 16 companies viewed the RFB and one bid was received as follows:
Bidder Total Base Bid
American Truck & Trailer Body Co. (AT&TBC) $156,844
In addition to the automated bid notifications sent to potential bidders through the e-procurement platform, staff reached out to firms in the industry.
City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 2 Printed on 8/10/2022
powered by Legistar™
22-662 Agenda Date: 8/16/2022
Staff recommends award of purchase order to AT&TBC as the sole bidder meeting all RFB specifications and requirements.
Under this purchase order, AT&TBC will provide and install three (3) automated valve operators onto the front of City vehicles. Pricing shall be fixed for the one-year term of the purchase order.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378 (b)(2) in that the proposed actions are agreements for the purchase of products and services that are continuing maintenance and administrative activities.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is sufficient budget in the Water Utility Fund of the Water & Sewer Utilities Department’s FY 2022/23 adopted operating budget to cover the costs of this purchase order ($156,844) and a recommended 10% contingency amount ($15,684).
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the Fleet Division of Public Works Department, Finance Department and City Attorney’s Office.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on a Request for a Special Permit to Allow Seasonal Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree Sales Events at 2610 El Camino Real from September 17, 2022 through December 24, 2022
COUNCIL PILLAR
Promote and Enhance Economic, Housing and Transportation Development
BACKGROUND
The applicant, Holly Prinz of ABC Tree Farms, LLC, is requesting a Special Permit pursuant to Zoning Code Section 18.60.030 to allow seasonal Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree sales events located at 2610 El Camino Real (the Moonlite Shopping Center). The property is zoned for commercial use (Community Commercial). The Community Commercial zoning district does not identify outdoor seasonal sales events as a use permitted by right or through issuance of a Use Permit. However, City Code Section 18.60.030 allows activities to be performed in any non-industrial Zoning District for any use not otherwise regulated within the Zoning Code upon issuance of a Special Permit by the City Council.
The site is developed with commercial uses. Neighboring land uses include Saratoga Creek, multifamily residential, and commercial development.
The Pumpkin Patch sales event is proposed to begin on September 17, 2022 and end on October 31, 2022, with setup commencing on September 1, 2022 and the breakdown of the setup to be completed by November 10, 2022. The Christmas Tree sales event will begin on November 19, 2022 and end on December 24, 2022, with setup commencing on November 10, 2022 and the breakdown of the setup to be completed by December 31, 2022. The hours of operation for the Pumpkin Patch will be 10:00 a.m.-9:00 p.m., Sunday through Thursday, and 10:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m., Friday and Saturday. The hours of operation for the Christmas Tree lot will be 10:00 a.m.-9:00 p.m., Sunday through Thursday, and 9:00 a.m.-9:30 p.m., Friday and Saturday.
The proposed Pumpkin Patch sales event would include temporary tents, children’s inflatable entertainment units, a dumpster area, and a storage container. The Christmas Tree sales event would include similar temporary facilities. Power will be supplied by Silicon Valley Power. The property is owned by Moonlite Associates LLC, which has provided written authorization for the temporary use.
DISCUSSION
The proposed temporary use, with limited duration and operations proposed, is not anticipated to adversely impact the surrounding land uses in that the events will occur over a limited time period City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 3 Printed on 8/10/2022
powered by Legistar™
22-900 Agenda Date: 8/16/2022
and will be subject to conditions which mitigate potential negative impacts, including a condition of approval that the use be conducted in a manner that does not create a public or private nuisance.
Any possible impacts would also be offset by the benefit to the community from the event. The Special Permit is subject to revocation should a problem arise. Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree lots operated at this location in prior years have not resulted in any known negative impacts to the community.
The proposed project will allow the purchase of pumpkins and trees for the surrounding community.
The proposed use could impact the availability of parking to support the host shopping center.
However, given the site context and the limited timeframe of the proposed use, the benefits of providing access to holiday décor outweigh the potential disadvantages, and conditions of approval help protect the surrounding community from adverse impacts.
Draft Permit and Conditions
The proposed permit would be subject to conditions of approval as follows:
1. Special Permit shall be valid from September 17, 2022 through December 24, 2022; with setup beginning on September 1, 2022, and breakdown/clean-up to be completed by December 31, 2022, with the following sales allowances:
a. Pumpkin Patch sales: September 17, 2022 through October 31, 2022; b. Christmas Tree sales: November 19, 2022 through December 24, 2022;
2. Pumpkin Patch hours of operation: Sunday through Thursday from 10:00 a.m.-9:00 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 10:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m.;
3. Christmas Tree lot hours of operation: Sunday through Thursday from 10:00 a.m.-9:00 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 9:00 a.m.-9:30 p.m.;
4. The applicant shall obtain and comply with all applicable Santa Clara Building Division and/or Fire Department directives, permits, and requirements, including but not limited to temporary electrical and tent permits;
5. The applicant shall obtain an amplified music permit and shall comply with City Code Section
9.10.040, noise and sound regulation;
6. The applicant shall obtain temporary sign permits for all temporary signs advertising the events;
7. There shall be no “searchlight” beams, streamers, or roof-mounted balloons during the events;
8. Upon conclusion of the Christmas Tree sales events, the parking lot shall be cleaned and returned to its prior condition; and
9. The use shall operate in a manner that does not create a public or private nuisance.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered is categorically exempt from formal environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15304(e) (Class 4 - “Minor Alterations to Land”) as it consists of “minor temporary use of land having negligible or no permanent effects on the environment, including carnivals, sales of Christmas trees, etc.”
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no cost to the City other than administrative staff time and expense.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on a Request for a Special Permit to Allow Seasonal Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree Sales Events at 3590 Benton Street from October 1, 2022 through December 24, 2022
COUNCIL PILLAR
Promote and Enhance Economic, Housing and Transportation Development
BACKGROUND
The applicant, Holly Prinz of ABC Tree Farms, LLC, is requesting a Special Permit pursuant to Zoning Code Section 18.60.030 to allow seasonal Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree sales events located on a vacant lot at the southeast corner of Lawrence Expressway and Benton Street (3590 Benton Street). The property is zoned as Single Family Residential (R1-6L). However, City Code Section 18.60.030 allows activities to be performed in any non-industrial Zoning District for any use not otherwise regulated within the Zoning Code upon issuance of a Special Permit by the City Council.
The site is adjacent to a church and the Calabasas Creek. Neighboring properties include singlefamily, multi-family, and commercial uses.
The Pumpkin Patch sales event is proposed to begin on October 1, 2022, and end on October 31, 2022, with setup commencing on September 1, 2022 and the breakdown of the setup to be completed by November 10, 2022. The Christmas Tree sales event will begin on November 20, 2022, and end on December 24, 2022, with setup commencing on November 10, 2022 and the breakdown of the setup to be completed by December 31, 2022. The hours of operation for the Pumpkin Patch will be from 10:00 a.m.-9:00 p.m., Sunday through Thursday, and 10:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m., Friday and Saturday. The hours of operation for the Christmas Tree lot will be from 10:00 a.m.-9:00 p.m., Sunday through Thursday, and 9:00 a.m.-9:00 p.m., Friday and Saturday.
The proposed pumpkin sales event would include temporary tents, children’s inflatable entertainment units, a dumpster area, and a storage container. The Christmas Tree sales event would include similar temporary facilities. Power will be supplied by Silicon Valley Power. The property is owned by the County of Santa Clara which has provided written authorization for the temporary use.
DISCUSSION
The proposed temporary use, with limited duration and operations proposed, is not anticipated to adversely impact the surrounding land uses in that the events will occur over a limited time period and will be subject to conditions which mitigate potential negative impacts, including a condition of approval that the use be conducted in a manner that does not create a public or private nuisance.
Any possible impacts would also be offset by the benefit to the community from the event. The City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 3 Printed on 8/11/2022

Special Permit is subject to revocation should a problem arise. Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree lots operated at this location in prior years have not resulted in any known negative impacts to the community.
The proposed project will allow the purchase of pumpkins and trees for the surrounding community.
The proposed use could impact the availability of parking to support the host shopping center.
However, given the site context and the limited timeframe of the proposed use, the benefits of providing access to holiday décor outweigh the potential disadvantages, and conditions of approval help protect the surrounding community from adverse impacts.
Draft Permit and Conditions

2. Special Permit shall be valid from October 1, 2022 through December 24, 2022; with set-up beginning on September 1, 2022, and breakdown/clean-up to be completed by December 31, 2022, with the following sales allowances:

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action to Authorize the City Manager to Negotiate, Execute, and Administer an Agreement with the City of San Jose for the Stevens Creek Boulevard Vision Study and Related Budget Amendment
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High-Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
On November 19, 2019, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 19-8781 (Attachment 1) in support of a Stevens Creek Corridor Complete Streets and Transit Study to: 1) explore transit options including Complete Streets elements along the Stevens Creek Boulevard corridor and 2) consider potential options for a grade-separated high capacity transit system for the Stevens Creek Boulevard corridor to connect the Cities of Santa Clara, Cupertino, and San Jose. The Cities of Cupertino, San Jose, and the County of Santa Clara have also adopted resolutions in support of a Stevens Creek Corridor Complete Streets and Transit Study.
Stevens Creek Corridor Steering Committee: A Stevens Creek Corridor Steering Committee (Steering Committee) was formed and includes elected officials from the Cities of Santa Clara, Cupertino, San Jose, and the County of Santa Clara. The Steering Committee has met two times - on July 20, 2020 and December 13, 2021. During both meetings the Steering Committee discussed the potential joint study of the Stevens Creek corridor for complete streets and transit improvements.
On July 20, 2020, former Councilmember Teresa O’Neill, Vice Mayor Chappie Jones (City of San Jose), Councilmember Dev Davis (City of San Jose), Mayor Darcy Paul, (City of Cupertino), former Councilmember Rod Sinks (City of Cupertino) and staff from Santa Clara, San Jose, Cupertino, VTA, and the County of Santa Clara met as a part of the Steering Committee to discuss a proposed scope to study the Stevens Creek corridor. At the meeting, the Steering Committee gave direction to proceed with a study that would provide a vision for the Stevens Creek Corridor. The Stevens Creek Boulevard Vision Study (Vision Study) would be developed through a community engagement process that would be supported by illustrative concepts versus engineered drawings. Final approval for the scope of the Vision Study and budget allocations would require approval of each affected jurisdiction. Additionally, the Vision Study was to be included as an amendment to VTA’s Strategic Plan with the VTA as the lead for consultant contract management. In late 2020, the City of Cupertino’s City Council elected not to participate in the Vision Study and, consequently, the Vision Study was put on hold.
In spring 2021, the staff-level working group met to discuss options to reengage on a possible joint study for the Stevens Creek Corridor. With continued interest in a joint study, staff continued to work on possible options and funding strategies. Additionally, staff from the City of Cupertino expressed City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 4 Printed on 8/11/2022

22-561 Agenda Date: 8/16/2022
interest in re-presenting the study concept to the Cupertino City Council. During the summer of 2021, it was determined that the option to include the Vision Study as an amendment to the VTA’s Strategic Plan had expired. The City of San Jose proposed an option in which the Vision Study would be included as an amendment with their contract with Iteris and Winter Consulting for the West San Jose Multimodal Transportation Improvement Plan, which is a City of San Jose effort to identify, prioritize, and recommend transportation projects and programs for West San Jose, which includes a portion of the Stevens Creek corridor (within San Jose’s jurisdiction).
On December 13, 2021, the Steering Committee, comprised of Mayor Lisa Gillmor, Councilmember Anthony Becker, Vice Mayor Chappie Jones (City of San Jose), and Councilmember Kitty Moore (City of Cupertino), met and gave direction to staff to proceed with the Vision Study subject to the approval of each respective City Council or Board, if necessary.
DISCUSSION
Since the December 2021 Steering Committee meeting, staff has continued to meet monthly with staff from the City of San Jose, City of Cupertino, County of Santa Clara, and the VTA on the Vision Study. As this is a multi-jurisdictional effort with required funding from each agency, a cooperative and funding agreement with the lead agency who is contracting with the transportation planning consultant is necessary. The Council previously adopted Resolution No. 6603 which, among other items, authorizes the City Manager or designee to approve and execute certain documents including partnership, cost-sharing, and service agreements with other public agencies or private entities. Due to the prominent nature of the Stevens Creek Boulevard Corridor, staff determined it to be prudent to update Council and confirm the authorizations for the City Manager to proceed with implementation of the project under an agreement with the City of San Jose.
Presented below are key items for the Vision Study:
· Study limits are Stevens Creek Boulevard from Foothill Boulevard (Cupertino), through Santa Clara and San Jose, transitioning to West San Carlos (San Jose) to Diridon Station (San Jose) - See Attachment 2, Study Area Location Map
· Estimated 19-month study schedule
· Total cost estimate of $794,400
· City of San Jose to amend its contract with Iteris and Winters Consultants to include the Vision Study
· City of San Jose to lead contract management for the consultant · Cities of Santa Clara, Cupertino, San Jose, County of Santa Clara, and VTA to all have active leadership roles in the technical and community engagement portions of the study · Each jurisdiction to provide fair-share funding for the Vision Study based on each jurisdiction’s proportionate share of mileage along the study corridor · Key Study deliverables include:
o Existing conditions report
o Public outreach results
o Vision statement
o Alternative improvement concepts considered and evaluated City of Santa Clara Page 2 of 4 Printed on 8/11/2022
powered by Legistar™
22-561 Agenda Date: 8/16/2022
o Final vision concept
o Implementation and a funding strategy
· Study progress and updates to be presented to each respective jurisdiction’s relevant Committees, Commissions, and Council/Board for feedback and direction at key Study milestones.
The key provisions of a cooperative and funding agreement with the City of San Jose would possibly include:
· City of San Jose to lead the study, contract administration, and project closeout · Term of agreement in effect through December 31, 2024 · City of Santa Clara to provide funding in the amount of $100,296 to the City of San Jose for the Vision Study
· Reimbursement costs based upon actual payments made to the consultant procured by the City of San Jose
· Payment made to the City of San Jose on a quarterly basis · City of San Jose would act as Lead Agency for compliance with CEQA for the project.
It is estimated that the Vision Study will start in fall 2022 and would be completed in 2024. Staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to negotiate, execute, and administer an agreement with the City of San Jose to complete the Vision Study.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(4) in that it is a fiscal activity that does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potential significant impact on the environment. Should a project move forward to construction it would be reviewed in accordance with CEQA as part of the approval process.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Vision Study is estimated to have a total cost of $794,400 and is shared by each jurisdiction (Table 1). The cost to Santa Clara is $100,296 and is based on Santa Clara’s share of mileage along the Stevens Creek/West San Carlos corridor in Santa Clara’s city limits.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Actions on a Resolution Adopting the Updated Sanitary Sewer Outlet Charge - Conveyance Fee Report and List of Improvements, and a Resolution Accepting the Amended AB1600 Report on Development Impact Fees for Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2021
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
In 2007, a Conveyance Fee component of the Sanitary Sewer Outlet Charge was approved by City Council (Resolution 07-7415). The Conveyance Fee funds required capacity improvements to the sanitary sewer system due to intensification and densification of land uses permitted by the General Plan and associated development land use amendments. Updates to the fee were made in 2009 and 2010 through the following actions:
· Resolution 09-7643 approved in June 2009 updated the fee to include costs of bond issuance to fund and implement projects
· Resolution 10-7741 approved in June 2010 updated the fee with consideration of the following: a) resolution of other funding opportunities (i.e. redevelopment and stimulus funds); b) incorporation of latest land use information from the General Plan update finalized in 2010; and c) adjustments to the capacity project improvements listing resulting from a) and b).
The initial establishment of the Conveyance Fee was based upon projects identified in the 2007 Sanitary Sewer Capacity Assessment. This assessment accomplished the following key objectives:
a) develop wastewater flow projections for the City’s collection area using up-to-date water use and land use information; b) develop a hydraulic model of the trunk sewer system; c) use the model to identify existing capacity deficiencies and future capacity requirements; and d) develop phased capital projects, including budget cost estimates, for implementing the required capacity improvements to the wastewater collection system. It is also important to note that the assessment fulfilled the requirement for a capacity evaluation and capacity assurance plan as required for all sewer system agencies overseen by the Regional Water Quality Control Board.
Another sewer capacity assessment was conducted in 2009 (an update to the 2007 assessment) that accounted for land use changes resulting from the in-progress General Plan Update which was finalized in 2010. In June 2010, recommended changes to the capacity project improvements listing and project budget cost estimates were approved through City Council Resolution 10-7741.

DISCUSSION
2016 Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update
In 2015, the City initiated work on a comprehensive update to the prior capacity assessment work completed in 2007 and 2009. The analysis considered the latest information on water use and land use changes since 2009. The 2016 Sanitary Sewer Master Plan (SSMP) Update was completed by the City’s consultant, RMC Water and Environment, and issued in April 2016 (Attachment 1). As with prior reports, the SSMP recommended a phased capacity improvement project listing including budget cost estimates. Also, the hydraulic model update served as an important tool in the continuous evaluation of individual development proposals with respect to sanitary sewer capacity impacts and resulting development conditions of approval. 2022 Addendum to 2016 Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update In 2021, the City initiated work on an addendum to the 2016 SSMP Update to analyze two identified deficiencies and update the Tracy Drive Sewer Improvement project. The two identified deficiencies included one on the Calabazas Creek trunk, which was due to the 2021 discovery of existing sewer network conditions that were different than the hydraulic model and one on the Great America Parkway West trunk resulting from new development in the sewer tributary area. The Tracy Drive sewer project was to be revised to better balance downstream flow between the Homestead Road and Pomeroy Avenue intermediate trunk lines.
The extent of the Calabazas Creek trunk line deficiency was evaluated, and four alternatives were studied, resulting in three recommended alternatives carried forward to the capacity improvement project listing. Also, a solution to the Great America Parkway West trunk line deficiency was identified resulting in a recommended project.
The 2022 Addendum (Attachment 2) provides an update to the 2016 capacity improvement project listing resulting in a combined listing of the 2016 projects with the additional projects identified in the 2022 analysis.
Upcoming Work and Recommended Actions
A comprehensive update to the SSMP is planned to commence in late 2022 and be completed by early 2024. Similar to prior work, this assessment will update the hydraulic model with the latest water use and land use changes. Further analysis will aid in identifying any existing deficiencies and future anticipated deficiencies with a resulting capacity improvement project listing that includes budget cost estimates. After identifying the total project costs, a rate analysis will be performed to determine if the existing conveyance fee rate is appropriate for the needed improvements.
The attached Sanitary Sewer Outlet Charge - Conveyance Fee Report (Attachment 3) provides more detail on the history of the Conveyance Fee and supporting analysis work that is summarized in this memorandum.
It is recommended that the updated Conveyance Fee Report and the updated capacity improvement project listing contained herein be approved. This will allow for continued capacity improvement projects to move forward in parallel with the planned Master Plan Update work. Because the City of Santa Clara Page 2 of 4 Printed on 8/11/2022

comprehensive update to the SSMP will be initiated in 2022, and the update will include a conveyance fee rate analysis, it is recommended that the current conveyance fee rate be held constant pending completion of the future rate analysis.
Amended AB1600 Report on Development Impact Fees and Recommended Actions Attachment 5 provides the Amended AB1600 Report on Development Impact Fees for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Staff has updated the AB1600 Report previously approved by the Council on February 22, 2022 to include the Sanitary Sewer Conveyance Fee. This section reflects the activity for the Sanitary Sewer Conveyance Fee from FY 2016-17 through FY 2020-21. This fee had initially been omitted from the report as the master planning efforts were underway.
This report is supplied pursuant to Government Code Section 66006(b). Staff has determined that the City does not have to refund any Sanitary Sewer Conveyance Fees as these fees have been programmed to fund capital projects. Therefore, staff is submitting the attached Resolution (Attachment 6) to accept the Amended AB1600 Report and make findings that there is a continuing need for unexpended balances of impact fees.
On July 29, 2022, the City posted notice and made copies of the Amended AB1600 Report available for public review in the City Clerk’s Office, the Finance Department, and online at www.Santaclaraca.gov/Finance. In addition, written notice of the time and place of the regularly scheduled City Council meeting on August 16, 2022, along with a copy of the Amended AB1600 Report were sent to interested parties as requested. More than 15 days will have elapsed as of the date of Council review since the report was made available to the public, as required by applicable state law.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Sanitary Sewer Master Plan updates and assessments mentioned in this report analyzed both existing conditions and future expected land uses based on the General Plan Phase III 2035 Scenario. Public Utilities, including wastewater systems, are addressed in the Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the 2010-2035 General Plan. The EIR considers the environmental impacts of increased land use densification and the resulting need to increase sanitary sewer capacity. For any specific project from the capacity improvement project listing that moves from the programming stage to construction, the project will be evaluated in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act as part of the approval process.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact other than staff time. The current Conveyance Fee will continue to be assessed at the current rate to fund capacity improvement projects.
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the Finance Department and the City Attorney’s Office.

Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update Executive Summary

Executive Summary
This report summarizes the results and recommendations of the Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update (Master Plan) for the City of Santa Clara (City). The Master Plan was prepared by RMC Water and Environment (RMC) in close coordination with City staff. The Master Plan will be used to guide improvements to the City’s sanitary sewer system to accommodate current and future development and ensure that the City continues to provide a high level of service to its customers.
Background and Purpose of Master Plan
The City of Santa Clara is located in central Santa Clara County adjacent to the Cities of San Jose, Cupertino, and Sunnyvale. The City has a population of approximately 120,000 and is served by a wastewater collection system consisting of approximately 270 miles of sewer pipelines and seven sewage pump stations. The system collects wastewater flows generated within the City limits and also flows from the major portion of the Cupertino Sanitary District (CuSD) via a connection at Homestead Road and Swallow Drive. Flow is conveyed eastward to the City of San Jose’s interceptor sewer on Zanker Road and also northward to the Northside and Rabello Pump Stations, where the flow is pumped to the San Jose/Santa Clara Regional Wastewater Facility (SJ/SC RWF) for treatment and disposal. The City’s sewer system and service area are shown in Figure ES-1.
The City’s last sanitary sewer master plan was completed in 20071 . Since that time, the City has completed
a number of sewer improvement projects and is experiencing significant growth and redevelopment in a number of areas, necessitating an evaluation of the capacity of the sanitary sewer system to handle future wastewater flows. This Master Plan will help identify future capital needs for capacity improvements and associated requirements for financing those improvements through increased connection fees or other sources of funding.
The City is also required to comply with the Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems (GWDR) adopted in 2006 by the State Water Resources Control Board. The GWDR, which applies to all publicly-owned sewer systems in California, includes the requirement to complete a Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP). The SSMP addresses the overall management, operation, and maintenance of the sanitary sewer system and must include a System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan (SECAP). Therefore, this Master Plan is also intended to satisfy the SECAP requirements of the SSMP.
The overall objectives of this Master Plan are to develop wastewater flow projections for the City’s collection area using up-to-date water use and land use information and flow monitoring data; develop an updated hydraulic model of the trunk sewer system; use the model to identify existing capacity deficiencies and future projected capacity requirements; and develop a Capital Improvement Program (CIP), including budget estimates, for implementing the required capacity improvements to the collection system.
This Executive Summary is presented in two parts:
How the Capacity Assessment Was Prepared describes the scope and methodologies of the planning effort, including the key planning and technical assumptions incorporated into the sewer system capacity analysis.
Recommended Capacity Improvement Program presents the recommended CIP, including capacity improvement projects, priorities, and estimated costs. In addition, recommendations are presented for implementing the proposed capacity improvement program.

How the Capacity Assessment Was Prepared
The City’s wastewater collection system includes sewer pipelines ranging in size from 4 to 48 inches in diameter. The larger pipes, primarily the 10-inch and larger sewers and a portion of the smaller diameter pipes, comprise the trunk sewer system, which is the primary network for conveying flows generated from the City’s service area and CuSD to the SJ/SC RWF. The trunk sewer system, comprising about 34 percent of the total pipe footage in the system, was the focus of the capacity assessment in this study.
The project team used a systematic process that incorporated land use planning information, water use and flow monitoring data, and design criteria for estimating wastewater flows, applied in a computer hydraulic model of the trunk sewer system. The modeled system is shown in Figure ES-2. The model was used to assess how the system would perform under various planning and flow scenarios and identify pipes and/or pump stations that may not have sufficient capacity to convey the predicted flows under existing or future conditions. Improvement projects were developed to provide the required capacity, the capital costs of the required projects were estimated, and the projects were prioritized based on the model results.
Capacity Assessment Considers Existing and Future Planning Scenarios Two planning scenarios were evaluated for this study: existing (2015) and future (2035) scenarios. The existing scenario examined the current capacity of the sewer system based on existing land use, with flows defined based on winter water use data and calibrated to flow monitoring data collected in the 2014/15 winter season. The future scenario incorporated information on planned development provided by the City.
Figure ES-3 shows the location of the areas of anticipated development. Planned development within the City represents over 15,000 new residential dwelling units and over 20 million square feet of commercial and industrial building floor space. In addition, CuSD has also projected an increase in their base wastewater flow due to anticipated additional development. Together, these projections are estimated to increase current base wastewater flows by over two folds. The future scenario was used to examine the impact on the system of future increases in wastewater flows due to anticipated development and determine the required sewer system capacity needed to serve both existing and future users.
Potential Capacity Deficiencies under Existing and Future Flow Conditions For each of the planning scenarios, projected dry and wet weather flows were simulated in the hydraulic model. The model was calibrated to flow monitoring data to ensure that it represents a reasonably accurate depiction of system conditions. For this study, a flow monitoring program consisting of 25 temporary flow meters installed in the system during the 2014/15 wet weather season was conducted to provide data to calibrate the hydraulic model and verify existing system flows. The collected data was useful for confirming dry weather flows and characterizing the relative wet weather flow response in different areas of the system.
The model integrates various dry and wet weather flow parameters to determine system capacity under different flow and planning scenarios. Key flow components incorporated into the model included: base (dry weather) wastewater flow (BWF), estimated based on winter water use data; groundwater infiltration (GWI), which occurs when water seeps into pipes under the ground through cracks and pipe joints; and rainfall-dependent infiltration and inflow (RDI/I) during storm events. For this Master Plan, a 10-year return period, 24-hour duration rainfall event was selected as the “design storm” to serve as the basis for computing design peak wet weather flows in the system. A 10-year return period has become a standard design storm criterion for many Bay Area agencies. Table ES-1 presents the estimated existing and future average dry weather flow (ADWF) and peak wet weather flow (PWWF) for the selected design storm for the City’s sewer system, based on the modeling conducted for this study. 0 0.5 1 Mile

1. Assuming that trunk sewer capacity deficiencies are relieved with recommended capital improvement projects presented in Table ES-2.
2. Includes groundwater infiltration for a typical wintertime period. ADWF and first value shown for PDWF includes typical non-game day flow from Levi’s Stadium; second value shown for PDWF includes a peak game day flow from Levi’s Stadium.
3. For 10-year design storm; assumes non-game day flow from Levi’s Stadium.
4. Assuming peak wet weather flow from CuSD would not increase above its contractual maximum flow of 13.8 mgd.
Model results were examined to determine trunk system capacity needs, as indicated by areas where the flow in the pipes would exceed their capacity and cause surcharge conditions (water levels higher than the tops of the pipes). Figure ES-4 shows the capacity assessment results for future PWWF conditions, indicating existing trunk sewers that were predicted by the model to be surcharged due to “throttle” conditions (peak flow exceeding full pipe capacity) or due to backwater from a downstream throttle condition, and locations of where the model predicts a surcharge condition severe enough to violate the City’s capacity criteria, defined as water level that exceeds one (1) foot above the top of pipe. Most of these locations were predicted to be capacity issues only under future PWWF. Note that the locations of criteria violations are not necessarily the locations of the actual capacity-deficient pipes, but are typically located further upstream due to backwater from downstream deficiencies.
Note that no overflows are predicted under design storm conditions. Furthermore, all of the modeled pump stations have adequate firm capacity (capacity with largest pumping unit out of service) to convey the predicted PWWF without violating freeboard criteria or resulting in sewer overflows, although for two of the stations (Westside and Tasman), noticeable backwater surcharge was predicted because the switch-on set points for the lead pumps are higher than the influent lines.
Recommended Capacity Improvement Program
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) recommended in this study is designed to provide for adequate sewer system capacity for the City’s existing and anticipated future development. Figure ES-5 and Table ES-2 present the recommended capacity improvement projects. Projects have been assigned relative priorities based on the extent of criteria violations or surcharge. Priority 1 and 2 projects are required to address capacity deficiencies that result in criteria violations under current conditions, while Priority 3 projects are those that result in criteria violations under future conditions. In addition to these projects, there was also an additional project (Project E1) that was triggered by an entitlement requirement, discussed in more detail in Chapter 5.

Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update Executive Summary
April 2016 ES-7
As indicated in Table ES-2, the total estimated cost of the recommended capacity improvement program (without Project E1) is about $1.7 million. The total estimated cost, if the City implements Project P6-Alt instead of P6, would be approximately $2.8 million. Note that implementing Project P6-Alt would also increase the peak flow to the Rabello and Northside Pump Stations by about 1 mgd to each pump station, which could require further evaluation of and potential improvements to increase pump station capacity.
Implementation Recommendations
The City should begin implementation of the Capital Improvement Program recommended in this Master Plan, starting with the highest priority projects. The following items should be considered in project scheduling and design, and in future updates of the Master Plan. ƒ The alignments and sizes of projects should be verified with detailed predesign analyses, including topographic surveys, geotechnical investigations, utility research, and constructability reviews. ƒ The estimated costs assumed open cut construction, but alternative methods such as trenchless construction or construction of parallel relief pipes could be considered during design. The decision to parallel or replace existing sewers should consider the physical condition and remaining useful life of the existing pipelines; the availability of pipeline corridors for new sewer construction; and operation and maintenance concerns.
ƒ The hydraulic model has been developed to assist the City in performing capacity analyses and updating the Master Plan in the future. The model should be kept up-to-date with changes to existing sewer connections, development plans, and sewer system facilities. ƒ The City should conduct additional flow monitoring at key locations in the sewer system, particularly the area tributary to the Chromite/Machado trunk sewers where both the 2006 and 2015 flow monitoring programs indicated high I/I. The City should also conduct smoke testing and television inspection to identify potential sources of I/I. Flow levels during large storm events should be compared to the peak flows simulated by the hydraulic model to verify the modeling predictions for the 10-year design storm and confirm the need for and sizing of Project P3 (Cabrillo Avenue Sewer Improvement). ƒ The City should coordinate with the CuSD on flow and planning assumptions to ensure that adequate capacity exists in the Santa Clara system to handle future flows from the District. The City should encourage CuSD to monitor the flows at the flow meter that it operates and maintains on Homestead Road at Swallow Drive on an on-going basis and periodically confirm meter calibration to verify the wastewater flows entering the Santa Clara system.
ƒ The City should coordinate with the City of San Jose to ensure that its flow criteria and planning assumptions are consistent with those used by San Jose in its capacity master planning. ƒ The City should verify the need to implement project E1 (Tracy Drive Sewer Improvement). The project is triggered by the large sewer discharge assumed for parcel APN 316-17-018, which holds an entitlement agreement to discharge a potential flow of 0.95 mgd; however, it is currently discharging less than 10 percent of the entitled rate. While the City is obligated to provide capacity for entitlement holders, it is important to note that implementing this project now may result in oversized sewers where the current daily flow is not sufficient to provide the minimum cleaning velocity and thus creating potential debris and odor issues.

Introduction
April 2016 1-1
Chapter 1 Introduction
This report presents the results and recommendations of the Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update (Master Plan) for the City of Santa Clara (City). The report was prepared by RMC Water and Environment (RMC).
1.1 Background and Study Objectives
The City of Santa Clara is located in central Santa Clara County adjacent to the Cities of San Jose, Cupertino, and Sunnyvale. The City has a population of approximately 120,000 and is served by a wastewater collection system consisting of approximately 270 miles of sewer pipelines and seven sewage pump stations. The system collects wastewater flows generated within the City’s service area and also wastewater flows from the major portion of the Cupertino Sanitary District (CuSD) via a connection at Homestead Road and Swallow Drive. Flow is conveyed eastward to the City of San Jose’s interceptor sewer on Zanker Road and also northward to the Northside and Rabello Pump Stations, where the flow is pumped to the San Jose/Santa Clara Regional Wastewater Facility (SJ/SC RWF) for treatment and disposal. The City’s sewer system and service area are shown in Figure 1-1.
The City’s last sanitary sewer master plan was completed in 20072 . Since that time, the City has completed
a number of sewer improvement projects and is experiencing new development in a number of areas, necessitating an evaluation of the capacity of the sanitary sewer system to handle future wastewater flows.
This evaluation will help identify future capital needs for capacity improvements and associated requirements for financing those improvements through increased connection fees or other sources of funding. This Master Plan will confirm flows in the collection system and identify capital needs for capacity improvements.
The City is also required to comply with the Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems (GWDR) adopted in 2006 by the State Water Resources Control Board. The GWDR, which applies to all publicly-owned sewer systems in California, includes the requirement to complete a Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP). The SSMP addresses the overall management, operation, and maintenance of the sanitary sewer system and must include a System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan (SECAP). Therefore, this Master Plan is also intended to satisfy the SECAP requirements of the SSMP.
The overall objectives of this Master Plan are to develop wastewater flow projections for the City’s collection area using up-to-date water use and land use information and flow monitoring data; develop an updated hydraulic model of the trunk sewer system; use the model to identify existing capacity deficiencies and future anticipated capacity requirements; and develop a phased Capital Improvement Program (CIP), including budget estimates, for implementing the required capacity improvements to the collection system.

1.2 Scope of Study
The scope of the Master Plan, as well as a brief discussion of work conducted under each task, is described below.
Task 1 – Project Management and Coordination. Periodic progress meetings were held with City staff to review project status and discuss project issues, and monthly status reports were prepared to document the work completed. Quality control was carried out, including checking of data and calculations, as well as senior review of proposed criteria, recommendations, and project deliverables. Task 2 – Data Collection and Review. Data, maps, geographic information system (GIS) files, and previous reports related to the wastewater collection system were reviewed to identify the information available for completing the Master Plan.
Task 3 – Flow Monitoring. A flow monitoring program, consisting of the 23 meters and 4 rain gauges installed in the collection system for a period of about two months during the 2014/15 wet weather season was conducted to obtain data to characterize flows in the system and calibrate the hydraulic model. Two additional FloDar meters were also installed at the Guadalupe Chart Station on the Trimble Road trunk sewer to confirm flows recorded by the City’s existing permanent meters at that site. Four of the sites were installed early, including a meter at Levi’s Stadium to capture the 2014 Thanksgiving Day football game, and at the three most downstream meters to capture total flows to the Rabello and Northside Pump Stations.
Task 4 – Hydraulic Model Update. An expanded hydraulic model of the City’s trunk sewer system was developed using InfoWorks™ CS modeling software. Subcatchments (small areas of unmodeled sewers that contribute flow to the modeled system) were delineated to define areas loading to the model, and flow loads to the model were compiled using water use and land use data and flow factors representing unit base wastewater flow (BWF) rates, diurnal BWF patterns, and infiltration/inflow (I/I).
The expanded model also included the Northside and Rabello Pump Stations, the two associated force mains, and a junction structure between the pump stations and the SJ/SC RWF. Meetings were held with City planning staff to identify and obtain pertinent land use data and to discuss specific planning issues and potential growth or development areas in the City. Additional meetings were also held with the City of Cupertino and the CuSD to obtain updated flow projections. The model was verified for system connectivity, calibrated for dry weather conditions, and then calibrated for wet weather conditions using actual storm events from the flow monitoring program under Task 3. Task 5 – Evaluate System Hydraulic Performance and Develop Capital Improvement Projects.
The model was used to determine sewer system capacity requirements and identify capacity deficiencies under peak dry and wet weather flow conditions, defined based on a design storm and system performance criteria. Potential solutions to capacity deficiencies were identified and tested in the model, and capacity improvement projects and associated costs were developed based on these analyses. The model was also used to confirm the results of the City’s 2010 Pump Station Evaluation to determine if the City’s pump stations are adequate to convey future flows. The recommended capacity improvement projects were prioritized to develop a Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Task 6 – Prepare Sanitary Sewer Master Plan (Update) Report. This report was prepared to summarize and present the results and recommendation of the study. 0 0.5 1 Mile

Chapter 2 Basis of Flow Estimates
This chapter presents the basis of wastewater flow estimates for the City’s sanitary sewer system. The section describes the wastewater flow components used in the hydraulic model and the existing and projected future land uses for the City, which form the basis for generating base wastewater flows. Design flow estimates were developed based on criteria developed for each flow component: base wastewater flow, groundwater infiltration, and rainfall-dependent infiltration and inflow, and confirmed through model calibration, as described in Chapter 3 of this report.
2.1 Wastewater Flow Components
Wastewater flows include three components: base wastewater flow (BWF), groundwater infiltration (GWI), and rainfall-dependent infiltration/inflow (RDI/I), as illustrated conceptually in Figure 2-1. BWF represents the sanitary and process flow contributions from residential, commercial, institutional, and industrial users of the system. GWI is groundwater that infiltrates into defects in sewer pipes and manholes, particularly in winter and springtime in low-lying areas. GWI is typically seasonal in nature and remains relatively constant during specific periods of the year. RDI/I is storm water inflow and infiltration that enter the system in direct response to rainfall events, typically through direct connections such as holes in manhole covers or illegally connected roof leaders or area drains or, more commonly, through defects in sewer pipes, manholes, and service laterals that may have resulted from poor initial construction, settlement of trench backfill, or deterioration due to age. RDI/I typically results in short-term peak flows that recede quickly after the rainfall ends.

2.2 Base Wastewater Flow
For the City’s Master Plan Update, BWF loads were developed for both existing and future development conditions. Existing loads were developed based on average winter water use data from the City’s customer billing records, and future loads were based mainly on the General Plan Phase 3 (2035) development forecast and known development and redevelopment projects that had occurred in recent years. The loading methodology for existing conditions and for projecting future BWF are discussed in the following subsections.
2.2.1 Existing Base Wastewater Flow
Existing BWF was estimated based on actual water billing records in the City’s customer billing database.
Data were first processed to exclude non-wastewater generating accounts such as fire, construction, or irrigation accounts; data for the remaining accounts were converted to average water use (in gallons per day, gpd) using the billing dates and quantities. Each account’s BWF was estimated based on the average water use during the four winter periods between December 2010 and February 2014. Each user was also assigned one of three land use types (residential, commercial, or industrial) according to the account’s North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) designation.
The City also has customers who use domestic wells and/or recycled water. The BWF for these customers were individually estimated based on their winter well usage data and recycled water billing data.
The BWF data (both water use and land use type) were further processed in GIS by geocoding the data to their corresponding parcels using the account’s service address. The total BWF for each sewer subcatchment was then estimated by overlaying the subcatchment boundary on the parcels and summing the BWF of all parcels within each subcatchment.
The data were then imported into the hydraulic model to perform a dry weather simulation run, and the results were compared to the flow data collected during the most recent flow monitoring program, in which a total of 25 meters were installed at selected locations throughout the system and collected actual flow data between November 2014 and March 2015 (see further discussion of model calibration in Chapter 3). It was noticed that the modeled flows were consistently about 10 to 20 percent higher than the observed flows.
One possible explanation was that there was some level of irrigation activities occurring even in the winter months due to the lack of rainfall in recent years. As such, a wastewater return factor of 10 to 20 percent was applied to the estimated BWF based on the water use data to attain a more reasonable match with actual flows observed in the field. The revised estimated BWF including the wastewater return factor is 6.5 million gallons per day (mgd) for residential accounts and 4.4 mgd for commercial and industrial accounts. These estimates do not include flow from the Levi’s Stadium, which varies widely depending on the use of the venue and could potentially generate daily peak flows ranging from less than 0.1 mgd (for local events such as team practice or stadium public tours) to 1.0 mgd or higher (for major events such as the Super Bowl).
2.2.2 Future Base Wastewater Flow
The future scenario for this Master Plan Update refers to the projected flow condition in year 2035, which is the planning horizon for the City’s current General Plan. The BWF for this scenario was estimated using multiple data sources, including the original General Plan Phase 3 development forecast that was prepared in 2009 plus various additions and corrections that City staff identified in 2015, development and redevelopment projects that have occurred between 2009 and 2015, and entitlement agreements for specific parcels. These areas are shown in Figure 2-2. A more detailed map and tabulation of the recent developments are included in Appendix G.

Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update
Chapter 2
Basis of Flow Estimates
April 2016 2-4
The original future BWF projection was developed in 2009 as part of the City’s overall General Plan Update effort, in which over one thousand parcels with development potential were identified and their developments were quantified in terms of dwelling units (for residential developments) and/or building square footage (for non-residential developments). The development quantities were multiplied by the corresponding unit flow factors depending on land use to convert the information into BWF estimates.
These unit flow factors are summarized in Table 2-1.
Table 2-1: Base Wastewater Flow Unit Flow Factors
Type of Development Unit Flow Factor (1) Basis
Single Family Detached 245 gpd/DU 3.5 people/DU, 70 gpcd Townhouse or Condominiums 175 gpd/DU 2.5 people/DU, 70 gpcd Apartments 154 gpd/DU 2.2 people/DU, 70 gpcd
Hotels 100 gpd/room n/a
Commercial Offices 0.1 gpd/sq. ft. n/a
R&D Offices 0.15 gpd/sq.ft. n/a
1. All unit flow factors are consistent with factors used in the 2007 Capacity Assessment.
Parcels that were not identified with development potential were assumed to retain the same land use through 2035 and therefore also maintain approximately the same level of wastewater generation, which was developed based on their 2005-2006 winter water billing data. This version of the future BWF projection has since then been used for various capacity evaluations, and was updated regularly when new development or redevelopment project applications were submitted to the City for capacity evaluation.
In 2015, the City identified a number of additional developments that were not accounted for in the original General Plan Phase 3 development forecast prepared in 2009. The City also identified a list of parcels with entitlement agreements that allow the owners of these parcels to discharge wastewater up to a certain flow rate without applying for permission or notifying the City. Neither set of data was accounted for in the original projection. Furthermore, the revised existing BWF estimates are noticeably lower than those developed based on the 2005-2006 winter water billing data. The decline could be mostly attributed to increased water conservation activities in response to the recent drought. This is also evidenced in the City’s potable water sales records, which shows a sharp decline in the past ten years despite continuous population growth in the City. While it is possible that water use could rebound if and when the drought is over (e.g., behavioral changes such as reverting back to longer showers), some of the reduction is likely to remain permanent as a result of installing water-efficient plumbing fixtures and greater awareness of the need to continue conserving water.
In light of the various changes in water use and development information, a focused effort was undertaken to revise the City’s future BWF projections. Parcels that were identified to have development potential in the revised General Plan Phase 3 forecast were re-processed using the updated development quantities.
Parcels that were not identified with development potential were assumed to maintain their current water use, which is the updated existing BWF described in the previous section, instead of the original BWF based on previous 2005-2006 water use data, plus a 10 percent rebound factor to account for possible increase in water use in the future. For parcels that are on the list of development/redevelopment projects that the City has received between 2009 and 2015, their BWF was estimated according to the development quantities specified in their project applications. For parcels that hold entitlement agreements, BWF was set to their entitled flow rates.

2. Does not include flow from the Cupertino Sanitary District (CuSD), which is discussed in section 2.5.
2.2.3 Diurnal Curves
In most sewer systems, BWF typically exhibits distinctive diurnal patterns depending on the land use, usually categorized as residential, commercial, and industrial. For Santa Clara, flow monitoring data showed typical responses to commercial and industrial patterns, but also two residential patterns: the northeastern part of the City in the vicinity of Lafayette Street and Montague Expressway appeared to have a more pronounced morning peak flow and a lower evening peak, while the rest of the City had a less peaky morning peak and a somewhat higher evening peak. As such, two residential diurnal curves were created to represent these two patterns.
. Each subcatchment was assigned one of the residential curves Figure 2-3 The diurnal curves are shown in according to its location (Lafayette Area vs. all other areas); and one of the non-residential curves according to the primary type of non-residential establishments (commercial or industrial).

Some of the City’s large water users do not exhibit typical diurnal curves. To ensure their flow patterns are accurately reflected in the model, nonresidential accounts with average water use of over 50,000 gpd were identified and individually researched. A total of 18 such large users were identified, and City staff contacted each user to collect operational information regarding their sewer discharge pattern. Individual diurnal curves were created for each based on the operational hours indicated on their wastewater discharge permits or surveys. These large water users are summarized in Table 2-3.

2.3 Groundwater Infiltration
Groundwater infiltration is generally quantified based on actual flow monitoring data, since it is difficult to predict GWI rates based on physical system data alone. In the context of design flow criteria, GWI represents the incremental groundwater infiltration that occurs during the wet weather season above the “baseline” infiltration level during the driest months of the year.
GWI can be estimated based on minimum flows during non-rainfall periods during a wet weather flow monitoring period. Minimum flows typical occur during the nighttime or early morning hours when base wastewater flows are at a low. Alternatively, GWI can be estimated as the difference between average metered flow during non-rainfall periods and computed average BWF. In either case, the resulting GWI, is expressed on a unit basis (gpd/acre or gpad) by dividing by the sewered acreage of the monitored area.
Typical GWI rates may range from about 100 to 1,000 gpad.
GWI were estimated through the model calibration process (described in Chapter 3) by comparing modelsimulated BWF to actual flow measurements from the temporary flow monitoring programs. Cases where model-predicted BWF was noticeably lower than monitored flow indicated the possible occurrence of GWI.
2.4 Rainfall-Dependent I/I
RDI/I flows result from rainfall events that produce infiltration and inflow of storm water into the sewer system. RDI/I can be quantified as the difference between the total flow during and immediately following a storm event and the non-rainfall “base flow” (BWF plus GWI) that is estimated to have occurred during the storm period. The magnitude of the resulting RDI/I response is typically described by the percentage of the rainfall volume (called the “R value”) represented by the volume of the RDI/I hydrograph. The R value can vary from storm to storm, depending on such factors as the degree of soil saturation (due to antecedent rainfall) prior to the storm event.
The shape of the RDI/I hydrograph is also important in determining the peak RDI/I response. The RDI/I hydrograph shape is often defined by separating the total RDI/I hydrograph volume into components, representing different response times to rainfall (fast, medium, and slow). Each component is identified by a percentage of the total RDI/I volume and specific time to peak (T) and recession coefficient (K), illustrated in Figure 2-4. The R component percentages and T and K values can be applied to each hour of rainfall to generate a “synthetic hydrograph” that approximates the volume and shape of the hydrograph from the actual observed event. These parameters, when applied to a different rainfall pattern, can be used to estimate the RDI/I response to that particular rainfall event. This methodology is used to synthesize RDI/I hydrographs for a “design storm” for collection system modeling (see Chapter 3 for discussion of design storms).
Design criteria for RDI/I include design R values and hydrograph shape parameters and the hourly rainfall for the selected design storm event. As described in the next chapter, R values and hydrograph parameters are determined through the process of model calibration, in which actual observed rainfall events are simulated in the hydraulic model, and the resulting model hydrographs are compared to the measured flows at flow meters locations. The RDI/I parameters are adjusted as needed to achieve the best match of modeled to monitored flows. Once calibrated, the model RDI/I parameters can be applied to a design storm to simulate wet weather flows for a design event.

2.5 Flow from Cupertino Sanitary District
CuSD provides sewer collection services for the majority of City of Cupertino, portions of the City of Saratoga, and several unincorporated areas within Santa Clara County east of San Jose. Most of the flow is discharged into the Santa Clara system via a 27-inch sewer line in Homestead Road; the rest is discharged into the City of San Jose (CSJ) system at various other connection points.
CuSD maintains a permanent flow meter at its discharge point in Homestead Road. Meter data between November 2014 and March 2015 were reviewed and analyzed; the average dry weather flow (ADWF) was about 3.5 mgd. Similar to the declining trend observed for the City, CuSD’s flow has also declined over 28 percent from the 2007 estimates of 4.9 mgd to the current estimates of 3.5 mgd, most likely also due to increased water conservation activities in response to the recent drought.
Multiple meetings were held with City staff and CuSD staff to discuss development projections within the CuSD service areas in an effort to estimate the future BWF for the CuSD system. Information from sources such as the City of Cupertino’s General Plan 2020 and General Plan 2040, CuSD-SJ Joint Interceptor Cost Sharing Agreement (which indicates how much flow CuSD would be discharging into the San Jose system), ABAG projections, and CuSD meter data were discussed. Characteristics of the CuSD system, such as system age and I/I, planned sewer improvements, and known large development projects were also considered. Preliminary model simulations were conducted to understand the potential impact of the CuSD flow on the Santa Clara system under future peak design storm condition. For this Master Plan Update, City staff has directed RMC to use 6.90 mgd as CuSD’s future ADWF, and cap its future PWWF at 13.8 mgd, which is the maximum flow rate set forth in the agreement3 between the City and CuSD.

Chapter 3 Hydraulic Model Development
This chapter describes the process of developing and calibrating the hydraulic model for use in the capacity assessment, including the flow monitoring program that was conducted for this study.
3.1 Modeling Terminology
Network refers to the representation of the physical facilities being modeled. The primary components of the modeled network are pipes, manholes, and pump stations.
Nodes are primarily manholes, but also include pump station wet wells, outfalls (discharge points of the modeled system) and breaks (changes in slope or diameter without a structure, such as at the vertical bends in inverted siphons). The primary data associated with nodes are rim and invert elevations. In the case of wet wells, the data also includes the diameter (for a circular well) or cross-sectional area.
Pipes are connections between nodes. The primary data associated with pipes are upstream and downstream node IDs, pipe length, diameter, and upstream and downstream invert elevations. Pipes include both gravity sewers and force mains.
Pumps are represented by links connecting the wet well node(s) and the discharge manhole or upstream end of the force main. Pumps are controlled by a number of user-defined parameters, including the switchon and switch-off levels, types of pumps, and head discharge curves.
Other model components include Gates and Weirs, which are represented by links with zero length.
Primary data associated with gates are the opening width and invert; data associated with weirs are the crest width and crest elevation.
Subcatchments are areas that contribute flow to the modeled sewer network and represent the unmodeled sewers in the collection system. Data associated with subcatchments include base wastewater (sanitary) flow (computed based on population, water use, or other available data), type of land use (which defines the diurnal profile associated with the base wastewater flow), infiltration/inflow (I/I) parameters, and the node at which the flow from the subcatchment enters the modeled system.
Loads are the flows assigned to each subcatchment. Components of model loads include residential and commercial base wastewater flow (BWF), groundwater infiltration (GWI), and rainfall-dependent I/I (RDI/I). As a sum, they represent the total wastewater flow applied to the model.
Models are the combination of a modeled network, its associated subcatchments and loads, and other data files (e.g., rainfall, diurnal profiles, etc.) that comprise a specific model scenario.
3.2 Delineation of Modeled System
A hydraulic model is typically developed to represent the trunk sewer system, which is the network of larger diameter pipes that comprises the “backbone” of the entire system. The City’s original hydraulic model was developed by RMC as part of the 2007 Capacity Assessment project and included approximately 28 percent (about 76 miles) of the total sewer pipelines and four of the pump stations. The model was originally constructed using modeling software MIKE URBANTM (SWMM version) and was converted to InfoWorksTM CS in 2008. RMC has continuously maintained and updated the model as sewer improvement projects were implemented or when new network data became available.
For this Master Plan Update, the model was expanded to include approximately 34 percent (about 92 miles) of the total pipelines and all seven pump stations. The force mains downstream of the Rabello and Northside pump stations were also added. A summary of the system’s pipeline inventory is provided in Table 3-1.
The modeled network is shown in Figure 3-1.

Flows are loaded into the model at “loading manholes,” each representing the point where flows from adjacent parcels or parcels connected to unmodeled sewers discharge to the modeled network. The parcels connected to unmodeled sewers were grouped into sewer subcatchments based on the modeled manhole to which the unmodeled sewers drain. Each subcatchment was associated with a unique load manhole in the model network. Approximately 860 sewer subcatchments and associated loading manholes were delineated for defining the model loads. The subcatchments and load manholes are shown in Figure 3-2.
3.3 Model Network Construction and Validation
Data of the expanded network were compiled from available as-built drawings, field measurements, and Excel files from previous modeling efforts. The network was also validated using the following steps:
The entire modeled network (both the original network and the expanded portion) was checked for connectivity, i.e., verifying that correct upstream/downstream manholes were identified for each pipe and there were no missing links in the network.
Profiles were plotted for each series of pipe segments to visually check for missing or suspect data, such as missing rim or invert elevations, negative pipe slopes, or abrupt steps up or down in pipe inverts.
Where appropriate, data were interpolated or verified through field investigation or as-built drawings. As-built drawings and field data were used to develop details for the modeled pump stations, such as wet well elevations and dimensions, number of pumps, pump types, on/off levels, and discharge curves. Flow splits (manholes with more than one outlet pipe) were identified, and field verification and/or asbuilt drawings were requested as needed for further verification of outlet pipe elevations and/or the existence of weirs or other flow diversion structures.
3.4 Flow Monitoring Program
Flow monitoring was conducted between November 2014 and March 2015 to measure actual flows in the system for analysis and calibration purposes. The monitoring was conducted by V&A Consulting Engineers (V&A) as subcontractor to RMC. The flow monitoring program originally consisted of 23 flow meters and four rain gauges. Most of the meters were installed and operational from December 10, 2014 to March 4, 2015 (approximately 12 weeks). Four of the meters, Meters 1 through 4, were installed earlier on November 22, 2014 to collect data during scheduled game events at the new Levi’s Stadium.
Factors that were considered in selecting the flow meter sites included:
Location of sites used in 2006 flow monitoring program for the City’s previous sewer system capacity assessment study
Similar sized tributary areas
Ability to isolate areas to characterize flows for model calibration Provides more specific information about flow splits
Preferred hydraulic conditions (i.e., manholes on a straight line preferred over manholes on bends or with multiple incoming pipes)
Ease of access and safety considerations
In addition to the 23 sites, the City also owns and maintains two permanent flow meters at the Guadalupe Chart Station just upstream of the connection with the City of San Jose’s Interceptors. Upon review of the data collected at these two meters, it was determined that a field calibration was necessary. V&A performed field calibration, and also installed two temporary flow meters at the same site to verify and ensure data quality of the two permanent meters.
The flow monitoring sites are listed in Table 3-3 and shown on Figure 3-3. A flow meter schematic is shown on Figure 3-4. Four rain gauges were installed to collect representative rainfall data over the service area during the monitoring period. The rain gauge locations are also shown on Figure 3-3.

During the flow monitoring period, all of the monitoring sites and the two permanent meter sites at the Guadalupe Chart Station were visited approximately biweekly to check meter operation and site conditions, obtain field calibration measurements, and download collected data. Field calibration involves taking manual depth measurements and flow velocity measurements using a portable velocity meter. These calibration measurements were compared to and used to adjust monitor-recorded depth and velocity if needed. Calibration measurements were taken at different times of day in order to obtain calibration points for the full range of typical diurnal flows.
Approximately four storm events occurred during the flow monitoring period. The biggest event occurred on December 11, 2014, in which over 3 inches of rainfall were recorded within a 24-hour period, with a peak hour rainfall of 0.38 inch between 9 a.m. and 10 a.m. This is the event used for wet weather flow calibration, discussed further in Chapter 3.
Plots of the flow monitoring data and a tabular summary of daily average, minimum, and maximum flows for each meter are included in Appendix A.
3.5 Model Calibration
Model calibration is the process of comparing model-computed flows to observed (monitored) flows to verify that the model is accurately simulating flows in the sewer system. As described above, temporary flow monitoring programs consisting of 25 flow meters installed in the Santa Clara system during the 2014/15 winter season as part of the study. The data collected during this flow monitoring program were used for model calibration.
3.5.1 Dry Weather Calibration
The 14-day non-rainfall period from January 17 to January 30, 2015 was used for dry weather calibration.
The dry weather calibration process was used to verify BWF loads and diurnal curves, and to quantify GWI (as indicated by monitored flows that were higher than estimated BWF). Table 3-4 compares the model vs. metered average dry weather flow (ADWF) at each of the meter locations. Figure 3-5 shows an example plot of model vs. metered flow for one of the flow monitoring locations in the system (Meter 5). Dry weather calibration graphs for all meters are included in Appendix B.
Overall, the model calibration resulted in a reasonably good match at most locations, but there were differences at some locations. These differences may be due to inaccuracies in the meter data, water use loadings, or configuration of the system (e.g., upstream flow splits, weir settings, etc.). Extensive effort was made to resolve as many of the calibration differences as possible. As shown in Table 3-4, the sum of the observed flows at the most downstream meters (Meters 1, 2, 3, M1 and M2) was within 6 percent of the modeled flows, which provides confidence that the overall flows in the model are reasonably accurate.
Note that the total model ADWF is higher than the estimated existing BWF shown in Table 2-2 because the model ADWF also accounts for the CuSD flow (observed flow data was used, which was approximately
3.57 mgd for the calibration period) and about 0.35 mgd of GWI that was added to the system during the calibration process, which was applied to the basins tributary to meters 10 and 11, at an estimated rate of 1,000 gpd/acre. As described in Chapter 2, GWI is calculated based on the difference between average flow on non-rainfall days during the flow monitoring period and estimated BWF for meters for which estimated BWF is noticeable lower than monitored flow. Other meter areas may also include some nominal dry weather GWI, which is assumed to be included in the BWF estimates.

1. Meter 4 was installed immediately downstream of the Levi’s stadium with the intention to collect data to study flow patterns during major game events. The meter did capture good flow data for a number of game events, but also encountered a technical issue in late January that caused data collected between January 20 and February 18 (overlapping with the calibration period) to be unrecoverable. As such, data collected between January 11 and January 18 (a 7-day non-rainfall period when the venue was not used for any games) was used to establish the baseline flow for the stadium.
2. Meters 15 and 16 had an unexpected shift in flow distribution between late December 2014 and early January 2015, possibly caused by a temporary blockage upstream of the two meters. City staff was informed of this shift but could not provide an explanation. Although the meter flows did return to a higher level in late January 2015, they never returned to the pre-shift level. As such, their data was deemed not suitable to be used for calibration for each meter basin individually; instead, their tributary subcatchments were calibrated together as one basin using the combined data of the two meters.
3. Meter 23 was located downstream of the Santa Clara University. The dry weather calibration period coincided with the registration week of the school’s winter quarter when student population was not at its maximum. The observed flow for this meter was therefore noticeably lower than the modeled flow (which was developed based normal school period).
4. Downstream (D/S) Meters are meters 1, 2, 3, M1, and M2. See system schematic in Figure 3-4. +-

3.5.2 Wet Weather Calibration
The storm that occurred on December 11, 2014 was used for wet weather calibration. As described previously, RDI/I response to rainfall events was quantified in terms of three sets of triangular unit hydrograph parameters that represent the volume percentage of rainfall that enters the system as RDI/I and the shape of the RDI/I hydrograph as a function of each hour of rainfall. Through the wet weather calibration process, RDI/I hydrograph parameters were developed for each meter area. In general, the response to rainfall in the Santa Clara system is relatively small, as evidenced by the relatively low peak flow response to the rainfall event, with the exception of areas in the western portion of the City near Monroe Street, which showed both a high peak inflow during the rainfall event and an extended period of infiltration after the event.
Table 3-5 lists the “R values” (as percentages of rainfall) for each flow meter area. Figure 3-6 shows an example plot of model vs. metered flow for one of the flow monitoring locations in the system (Meter 5).
A complete set of wet weather calibration graphs of modeled vs. metered flow for all meter locations are included in Appendix C.

Chapter 4 Capacity Analysis
This chapter describes the hydraulic analysis and design criteria used to evaluate system performance and size capacity relief projects, the capacity deficiencies based on the results of model runs, and preliminary solutions to identified capacity deficiencies. The chapter also summarizes the pump station capacity evaluation and analysis.
4.1 Design Event Criteria
Peak design flows for sewer systems consist of dry weather base wastewater flow (BWF), groundwater infiltration (GWI), and rainfall-dependent infiltration/inflow (RDI/I). Criteria for computing existing BWF, GWI, and RDI/I (developed as part of model calibration), and unit flow assumptions for future development were discussed in the previous chapters. However, the peak design flow criteria must also specify the set of conditions (e.g., design storm rainfall and timing with respect to seasonal GWI and diurnal BWF) that will generate the highest peak flows that the sewer system must be capable of hydraulically conveying.
The following subsections discuss design storm criteria, present data from recent storm events, and identify options and recommendations for selection of a design event for use in this Master Plan Update.
4.1.1 Design Storm Condition
The use of wet weather design events as the basis for sewer capacity evaluation is a well-accepted practice.
The approach is to first calibrate a hydraulic model of the system to match wet weather flows from observed storms, and then apply the calibrated model to a design rainfall event to identify capacity deficiencies and size improvement projects. The design event may be synthesized from rainfall statistics, or may be an actual historical rainfall event of appropriate duration and intensity.
A design storm is used to simulate a peak wet weather flow condition to identify system deficiencies and develop solutions for them. Design storms are typically classified by their return period and duration. The return period defines the probability that the design rainfall will be exceeded in any given year. For example, a storm with a 10-year return period means there is a 1 in 10 chance, or 10 percent probability, of exceeding the design rainfall in a given year. The chosen return period reflects the degree of risk an agency will tolerate of experiencing sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) due to future storm events. However, choosing a design storm with a very high return period (reflecting a very low risk tolerance) could lead to the identification of so many system capacity deficiencies that the cost of improvements is prohibitive. Additionally, sizing a system for a very rare event could mean that the system does not function well under typical conditions during much lower flows (due to slow velocities in oversized pipes, or oversized pump stations).
A storm duration must be specified along with the return period. Most Bay Area agencies use a 24-hour storm, though shorter or longer durations may sometimes be appropriate depending on system size and how quickly or slowly the system responds to rainfall. Design storm may be actual historical rainfall events or synthetic events that are designed to represent a certain return period for a specified storm duration or durations.
The City’s 2007 Capacity Assessment used a 10-year, 24-hour storm, with one-hour and six-hour 10-year events included within the 24-hour event. This storm was based on the Santa Clara County intensityduration-frequency (IDF) curve that was current at the time, representing rainfall statistics at the San Jose International Airport. To reflect differences in rainfall characteristics across the service area, the storm was scaled for different areas based on the isohyetal map of average annual rainfall from the Consoer, Townsend & Associates Sanitary Sewer I/I Analysis, dated 1974.
Since the completion of the Capacity Assessment, Santa Clara County released a new County Drainage Manual in October 2007. The Manual includes updated mean annual precipitation isohyetal lines from Santa Clara Valley Water District (SCVWD) and updated, distinct IDF curves for each mean annual City of Santa Clara

precipitation area. In addition to the IDF curves, Appendix D of the 2007 manual includes a 24-hr design storm pattern. According to the manual, this storm pattern is based on an actual event that occurred in December 1955, but with some adjustments to better reflect IDF statistics for various storm durations. Like the previous design storm, the design storm used for this Master Plan Update is also a 10-year, 24-hour storm that varies across the service area, but the storm pattern and hourly rainfall intensities are based on this updated Santa Clara County Drainage Manual. Figure 4-1 shows the design storm hourly rainfall as it occurs in the vicinity of the San Jose International Airport. At this location, the total rainfall for the 1, 6-, and 24-hour durations is 0.65, 1.49, and 2.92 inches, respectively.
Figure 4-1: Design Storm Pattern for the San Jose International Airport MAP Area The design storm represents the “point precipitation” at any single location in the system. The storm is applied in the model at the subcatchment level, with the assumption that the rainfall occurs simultaneously on all subcatchments, which is a conservative assumption.
As noted previously, the timing of the design storm also affects the resulting peak wastewater flows. If the design storm is timed to cause peak RDI/I at the same time as peak base wastewater flow, the total peak wet weather flow will be higher than if the design storm occurs during minimum or average base wastewater flow. Due to variations in the diurnal flow patterns as well as variations in the calibrated I/I response throughout the system, it is not possible to time the rainfall to create a peak-on-peak response everywhere in the system. However, the design storm was timed to achieve a peak-on-peak response in most areas of the system, with the peak hour rainfall occurring at 8:00 a.m. on a weekday.
4.2 Hydraulic Capacity Criteria
The hydraulic capacity criteria determine which sewer pipes should be relieved or replaced due to inadequate capacity to convey existing or future peak flows, and how large the new sewers should be. The criteria adopted by the City should ideally be stringent enough to ensure that sewer overflows caused by capacity limitations (as distinguished from other causes such as obstructions or structural failures) are very rare occurrences, but not so conservative that they cause the City to spend capital improvement funds unnecessarily or result in pipes that are so large that cleaning velocities cannot be achieved under normal flow conditions, causing solids build up and related problems.
The capacity deficiency criteria identify the need to replace an existing facility, while design criteria determine the sizing of new facilities. These criteria are discussed in the paragraphs below. 0 0.1

4.2.1 Capacity Deficiency Criteria
The capacity deficiency criteria are used to determine when the capacity of an existing sewer facility is exceeded to the extent that a relief sewer or larger replacement sewer or potential pump station capacity upgrade is required. Capacity deficiency criteria are sometimes called “trigger” criteria in that they trigger the need for a capacity relief project. These criteria often differ from criteria that are applied to determine the size of a new facility, which are typically more conservative.
It is important that the capacity deficiency criteria be coordinated with the peak design flow criteria. For example, if the peak design flow were to be based on only peak dry weather flow (PDWF), the deficiency criteria would need to be conservative (e.g., require pipes to flow less than full to allow capacity for I/I).
On the other hand, if the peak design flow includes I/I from an infrequent storm event, it may be appropriate to allow the sewers to flow surcharged to some extent, since the peak flows will be infrequent and brief in duration.
Gravity Sewers
Since the peak wet weather design flow as recommended in the previous section of this chapter includes RDI/I from a 10-year return period event and is assumed to be concurrent with peak BWF, the City should consider it acceptable to allow gravity sewers to flow surcharged to some extent before a capacity relief project is triggered. For example, significant surcharging may be acceptable in larger, deeper sewers provided the hydraulic gradeline remains a reasonable distance below the ground surface and no surcharging occurs during dry weather flow conditions. For smaller or shallow sewers, a more conservative criteria could be considered to account for the chance that capacity could also be compromised by factors such as offset joints, roots, grease, and debris (which cannot be accounted for in the hydraulic model), or that surcharge could result in flow backing up into connecting laterals.
Based on discussion of these considerations, the following criteria are proposed under which gravity sewers would be considered capacity deficient:
• PDWF: No surcharge allowed (d/D 1.0)
• PWWF:
o Gravity sewer with less than 6 feet of cover: no surcharge allowed (i.e., d/D 1.0) o Gravity sewer with 6 feet or more of cover: surcharge of up to 1 foot under PWWF (see Figure 4-2 for clarification)
• Case-by-case exceptions could be made for isolated short pipe reaches. Conversely, more stringent criteria could be applied for sewers located in areas where the consequences of an overflow would be greater (e.g., adjacent to creeks, schools, or hospitals). • Note that for evaluating the performance of existing sewers, a Manning’s “n” value of 0.013 is assumed for all pipes, regardless of material or age. Although new pipes, particularly plastic materials, would provide a lower initial roughness factor, it is assumed that over time, a “slime layer” formation on the walls of the pipes and/or other obstructions in the sewer, such as roots, debris, or structural defects, may increase pipe roughness. Therefore, an assumption of 0.013 for all pipes is considered to be appropriately conservative for master planning purposes.
Pump Stations and Force Mains
For master planning capacity assessments, the performance of pump stations and force mains are typically evaluated based on pumping capacity and peak force main velocities. Pump stations are considered to be capacity deficient if the station’s firm capacity (capacity with largest pumping unit out of service) is insufficient to convey the peak design flow. Force mains are considered to be deficient if velocity under peak design flow exceeds 10 feet per second (fps).

4.2.2 Sizing Criteria for New Sewer Facilities
The following criteria are proposed for sizing new trunk gravity sewers as part of the Master Plan. They are consistent with the City’s current sanitary sewer design criteria. Note that the City may use somewhat different criteria for new developments or actual design, e.g., varying Manning’s n for different pipe materials, or a more conservative d/D for smaller diameter sewer mains. These criteria would be based on the modeled design storm peak wet weather flows in the system. • Maximum allowable flow depth-to-diameter ratio (d/D) of 0.75 under peak design flow • A Manning’s ‘n’ of 0.013
• Minimum pipe size of 8 inches diameter in residential areas; 10 inches in commercial areas; and 12 inches in industrial areas
• Minimum velocity of 2 feet per second (fps) at half-full pipe • Maximum velocity of 10 fps at peak design flow
• Downstream pipes at least as large as upstream pipes
• Minimum and maximum pipe slopes determined based on above velocity criteria to the extent feasible (it is recognized that elevation constraints in the existing system may prevent achieving desired minimum slopes for some projects, and terrain may dictate higher maximum slopes in some cases)
• Minimum pipe cover of 6 feet

4.3 Capacity Analysis Results and Proposed Solutions
Based on the criteria described above, the hydraulic model was run for four sets of conditions representing combinations of existing or future development and dry weather flow or design storm wet weather flow.
Figure 4-3 shows the model results for future PWWF conditions. Pipes shown in red are predicted to be surcharged due to “throttle” (peak flow exceeding full pipe capacity), and pipes shown in blue are surcharged due to backwater from a downstream throttle condition. Locations of capacity criteria violations (surcharge of more than 1 foot due to either throttle or backwater conditions) are highlighted in yellow (pipes with criteria violations under both existing and future conditions) or orange (future conditions only).
Note that the locations of criteria violations (i.e., higher than allowable surcharge) are not necessarily the locations of the actual capacity-deficient pipes, but are typically located further upstream due to backwater from downstream throttle conditions. Appendix D includes model hydraulic profiles for each of these areas.
Potential solutions for the identified capacity deficiencies were developed in order to assess the potential extent of required capacity improvements and to estimate the resulting peak flow to the SJ/SC RWF once capacity deficiencies are relieved. Table 4-1 summarizes the predicted flow under each condition. Table 4-2 describes the solutions. The solutions model results indicate that the combined total estimated design storm future PWWF from the City’s system (including flows from CuSD) would be approximately 59 mgd.

4.3.1 Pump Station Firm Capacity Analysis
All seven lift and pump stations in the system were evaluated to determine if each station had adequate firm capacity to handle the design peak flow. Firm capacity is defined as the capacity of a station with the largest pump out of service. Table 4-3 below provides a summary of station firm capacity compared with peak inflow for future PWWF conditions.

1. Peak inflow refers to the maximum flows predicted by the model under future peak wet weather scenario using the solution network. The solution network eliminates flow restrictions upstream of the pump stations.
2. Peak inflow reflects the maximum flows predicted by the solution network in which CIP Project P6 (Sewer Diversion at Calabazas Boulevard and Machado Avenue) is implemented, which would divert excess flow from the 24-inch sewer line along Calabazas Boulevard into the 21-inch sewer line in Machado Ave, ultimately flowing to the City of San Jose’s interceptor in Zanker Road. This would reduce the flow conveyed north to the Rabello and Northside Pump Stations to the values shown in the table. Conversely, implementation of Project P6-Alt. would increase the peak flow to the Rabello and Northside Pump Stations by about 1 mgd to each pump station, which could require further evaluation of and potential improvements to increase pump station capacity.
3. Source: Table 1 (Pump Station Firm Capacities and Inflows) of the City of Santa Clara Sanitary Sewer Pump Station Evaluation, Schaaf & Wheeler, December 2010. The firm capacities of Primavera, Tasman, Westside, and De La Cruz lift stations were determined by performing a drawdown test.
4. Based on results from field drawdown tests conducted on September 17, 2015.
5. Source: Rabello and Northside Pump Station Capacity and Forcemain Calibration Technical Memorandum, Schaaf & Wheeler, November 13, 2015. See Appendix E.
6. The lift and pump stations have sufficient firm capacities within the accuracy of the estimated peak flows and capacities.
Although no capacity issues were identified for the pump stations, review of pump station drawings and current on/off set points for the pumps revealed that four of the stations may experience backwater issues in the influent pipes. The current set point of the lead pump at Tasman, Westside, and De La Cruz is above the crown of the influent gravity line. Under this condition, the lead pump will not turn on until the influent line is completely submerged, causing backwater issues upstream. This can be resolved by adjusting the set points to be equal or lower than the invert of the influent line. Primavera Lift Station has a similar condition with the set point of the lag pump. Table 4-4 summarizes the review findings and presents the suggested set points for each of the four stations. Set point revisions for Westside and Tasman are needed to address capacity criteria violations (Deficiencies 1 and 2 in Table 4-2). These settings should be evaluated by the City's pump operators to determine feasibility and if there are other operational issues that should be considered.

Chapter 5 Recommended Capacity Improvement Program
This section summarizes the capacity improvement projects recommended for the City of Santa Clara’s sanitary sewer system. Recommended improvements were developed from the results of hydraulic modeling of the trunk sewer system for predicted flow conditions, as described in Chapter 4. This section discusses the projects needed to address potential capacity deficiencies and unnecessary backups in the existing trunk sewer system including estimated capital costs and priorities for construction.
5.1 Development of Capacity Improvement Projects
Based on the proposed solutions described above, each proposed project was reviewed to identify potential design, permitting, environmental, and constructability issues. Feasible construction methods were also identified for each project, and preliminary estimates of probable construction costs were prepared.
Estimated costs for capacity improvements were based on cost data compiled by RMC from similar projects. The costs are conceptual level estimates, considered to have an estimated accuracy range of -30 to +50 percent, suitable for use for budget forecasting, capital improvement program development, and project evaluations, with the understanding that refinements to the project details and costs would be necessary as projects proceed to design and construction. All costs are presented in 2015 dollars and include a 30 percent allowance for contingencies for unknown conditions and a 25 percent allowance for engineering, administration, and legal costs.
Figure 5-1 shows the locations of the proposed improvements, and Table 5-1 presents the recommended capacity improvement projects, including brief project descriptions and estimated capital costs. Relative priorities have been assigned to the projects based on the flow scenario in which deficiency criteria are violated. Priority 1 and Priority 2 projects are required to address deficiencies that result in criteria violations under current flow conditions. Priority 3 projects are required to address deficiencies that result in criteria violations under future (2035) flow conditions.
Note that an alternative for Project P6 is also presented. While substantially more expensive than Project P6, this alternative would maintain the current system flow configuration of conveying all flows in the Calabazas Creek trunk sewer (including flows from CuSD) to the Northside and Rabello Pump Stations and avoid increasing flows in the Machado, Chromite, and Walsh Avenue trunk sewers that may be needed in the future to handle additional new development within the City. Implementation of Project P6-Alt would also increase flow to the Rabello and Northside Pump Stations by about 1 mgd to each pump station, which could require further evaluation of and potential improvements to increase pump station capacity.
The total estimated cost of the recommended capacity improvement program is approximately $1.7 million.
The total estimated cost, if the City were to implement Project P6-Alt instead of P6, would be approximately $2.8 million. More detailed project descriptions and cost estimates and maps of the recommended capacity improvement projects are included in Appendix F.
One of the projects was triggered due to the large sewer discharge assumed for parcel APN 316-17-018, which holds an entitlement agreement to discharge a potential flow of 0.95 mgd; however, it is currently discharging less than 10 percent of the entitled rate. While the City is obligated to provide capacity for entitlement holders, it is important to note that implementing this project may result in oversized sewers where the daily flow is not sufficient to provide the minimum cleaning velocity and thus creating potential debris and odor issues. This project is included in the summary table as project E1 (Tracy Drive Sewer Improvement), and is not part of the recommended Capital Improvement Program. It is recommended that the City implement project E1 as part of its Capital Improvement Program before the parcel begins to discharge its entitled flow of 0.95 mgd.

5.2 Implementation Recommendations
The City should begin implementation of the Capital Improvement Program recommended in this Master Plan, starting with the highest priority projects. The following items should be considered in project scheduling and design, and in future updates of the Master Plan. ƒ The alignments and sizes of all recommended projects should be verified with detailed predesign analyses, including topographic surveys, geotechnical investigations, utility research, and constructability reviews.
ƒ The estimated costs assumed open cut construction, but alternative methods such as trenchless construction or construction of parallel relief pipes could be considered during design. The decision to parallel or replace existing sewers should consider the physical condition and remaining useful life of the existing pipelines; the availability of pipeline corridors for new sewer construction; and operation and maintenance concerns.
ƒ The hydraulic model has been developed to assist the City in performing capacity analyses and updating the Master Plan in the future. The model should be kept up-to-date with any changes to existing sewer connections, development plans, and sewer system facilities. ƒ The City should conduct additional flow monitoring at key locations in the sewer system, particularly the area tributary to the Chromite/Machado trunk sewers where both the 2006 and 2015 flow monitoring programs indicated high I/I. City should also conduct smoke testing and television inspection to identify potential sources of I/I. Flow levels during large storm events should be compared to the peak flows simulated by the hydraulic model to verify the modeling predictions for the 10-year design storm and confirm the need for and sizing of Project P3 (Cabrillo Avenue Sewer Improvement). ƒ The City should coordinate with the CuSD on flow and planning assumptions to ensure that adequate capacity exists in the Santa Clara system to handle future flows from the District. The City should encourage CuSD to monitor the flows at the flow meter that it operates and maintains on Homestead Road at Swallow Drive on an on-going basis and periodically confirm meter calibration to verify the wastewater flows entering the Santa Clara system.
ƒ The City should consider adjusting its set points for the four lift stations identified in Table 4-4 to address upstream backwater issues and capacity criteria violations. These settings should be evaluated by the City's pump operators to determine feasibility and if there are other operational issues that should be considered. In addition, the City should continue to conduct regular maintenance as needed to maintain adequate firm pumping capacity at all pump stations, including cleaning the force mains as needed.
ƒ The City should coordinate with the City of San Jose to ensure that its flow criteria and planning assumptions are consistent with those used by San Jose in its capacity master planning. ƒ Parcel APN 316-17-018 holds an entitlement agreement to discharge up to 0.95 mgd into the City’s system; however, it is currently discharging less than 10 percent of its entitled rate. While the City is obligated to provide capacity for entitlement holders, it is important to note that implementing this project may result in oversized sewers where the daily flow is not sufficient to provide the minimum cleaning velocity and thus creating potential debris and odor issues. However, the City should implement project E1 (Tracy Drive Sewer Improvement) to address the potential capacity deficiency before the parcel begins to discharge its entitled flow of 0.95 mgd.
