Wildcat and San Pablo Creeks Water Resources Project, Contra Costa County, California
Independent channel improvement is proposed on Wildcat and San Pablo Creeks. Wildcat Creek: No construction in salt marshes; a 250-foot wide earthen floodway from salt marshes to Verde School including trails, picnic areas, a water impoundment, and landscaping; a covered concrete culvert past Verde School, and an open trapezoidal concrete channel upstream to approximately Vale Road, including trails and landscaping. San Pablo Creek: No construction in salt marshes; an earthen floodway to vicinity of the Santa Fe (SF) Railway tracks subsequently allowed to revert to natural vegetation; floodflows will be diverted through a concrete culvert from 17th Street under Road 20 to the vicinity of Giant Highway. The existing channel for the diverted reach will remain unimproved and will carry flows to channel capacity. Environmental impacts and adverse environmental effect are discussed.
