Authorize an application to the California Department of Water Resources for Proposition IE Stormwater<br />
Flood Management grant funding for the Chabot Dam Seismic Upgrade Project in an amount up to<br />
$10,000,000, and authorize execution of the grant agreement if the <strong>District</strong> is selected to receive the grant.<br />

The proposed action will authorize application for and acceptance of a grant from the California<br />
Department of Water Resources, with a minimum funding match of 50%, to help defray the total cost of<br />

DISCUSSION<br />
The California Department of Water Resources is administering the disbursement of a portion of grant<br />
funds that are available under Proposition IE, the Disaster Preparedness and Flood Prevention Bond Act<br />
of 2006. The Department's Division of Safety of Dams solicited the <strong>District</strong> for a grant application in a<br />
letter received on December 24,2012. The letter indicates that dam-safety-related projects may be eligible<br />
for grant assistance. <strong>District</strong> staff determined that the Chabot Dam Seismic Upgrade project would be the<br />
best candidate for the grant application.<br />
If the Board authorizes the submission of a grant application, staff will complete all necessary grant<br />
application materials for timely submission to the Department. In the event the <strong>District</strong>'s grant<br />
application is approved, the proposed resolution authorizes the General Manager to execute a grant<br />
agreement between the <strong>District</strong> and Department.<br />
Funds Available: FY12-13; CIP#000861 page 2.4-15<br />
