CEQA/ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS<br />
The <strong>District</strong>'s Board of Directors authorized the contract for the Preparation of an Environmental Impact<br />
Report (EIR) for the Chabot Dam Seismic Upgrade Project by Motion Number 134-12 on October 23,<br />
2012. The EIR is expected to be approved by the Board in early 2014.<br />
FISCAL IMPACT<br />
Funds are available for this work in the capital budget for the Chabot Dam Seismic Upgrade.<br />
ALTERNATIVES<br />
Complete the Chabot Dam Seismic Upgrade Projects without grant funding. This alternative is not<br />
recommended, as the project provides benefits consistent with grant requirements, and therefore it is<br />
prudent to take the opportunity to pursue the grant. Grant funding will allow the <strong>District</strong> to complete the<br />
project at the lowest cost to ratepayers.<br />
