Creek and Flood Protection Update
I’m sharing some information regarding the
maintenance activity along the canal behind 7th Avenue. I toured the area with
OneShoreline staff this morning. SFO is continuing maintenance on its West of
Bayshore property, including removing sediment, cattails, downed trees and
other material from the channel between San Bruno Avenue and the Angus Pump
Station.
Gravel has also been placed on the access road to help control weed
growth. This portion is nearing completion north of the Angus pump station.
Due
to the endangered species (California Red Legged Frog and San Francisco Garter
Snake) the work takes much longer to complete.
OneShoreline is scheduled to
complete additional hand clearing of cattails and downed trees by the end of
the month for the segment of the creek south of the Angus pump station and a
generator is also planned for placement near Walnut Avenue as a additional
contingency measure.
Work is also moving forward on longer-term flood
protection improvements. This includes concept design and environmental review
for improvements to the Angus Pump Station, coordination with San Bruno’s Storm
Drain Master Plan, and approximately $226,000 secured from Caltrans for the 7th
Avenue Stormwater Project Concept Design.
That project will include community
involvement as the design moves forward. This is important work for District 4.
I will continue working with San Bruno staff, OneShoreline, SFO and our
regional partners to improve drainage, reduce flood risk and keep residents
informed.
