REV: 11-19-25 LR <br />b.Task 5.a.2 Modify Criteria: <br />a.Consultant will review the existing City’s open channel level of service <br />criteria, including the details of determining that level of service. Details <br />include the hypothetical design storms: storm depths, storm durations, <br />storm time increments, storm distribution; the channel freeboard, and other <br />requirements. Consultant to document the existing criteria, review with the <br />City’s Project Manager, and City Staff, modify and set the criteria for <br />determining deficiencies for this project. <br />b. Consultant to use the current Creek Model for basis to develop 30-year <br />and 100-year rainfall data. The current Creek model uses 100- and 500- <br />year spatially varying design storms developed using Valley Meter <br />MetSat PFEs. <br />c. Consultant to set tidal boundary conditions and concurrent fluvial and <br />tidal flooding criteria to identify actual flood risk without under-or over- <br />stating this risk. This will be accomplished by evaluating riverine events <br />coupled with appropriate tidal events (and vice versa) to realistically <br />evaluate the potential flood envelop. At the lower parts of the watershed <br />below El Camino Real, the Consultant’s assessment will include the <br />evaluation of both daily and extreme tide levels to assess impacts from <br />both cases overtime to understand the flooding risks due to tidal flooding <br />and Sea Level Rise (SLR). <br />d. Consultant to evaluate conditions for mid-century (2050) and late- <br />century (2100). For future conditions analysis, the precipitation, tidal <br />levels, and ground water table will be adjusted to reflect the impact of <br />changes in climate patterns and SLR. Consultant will utilize the latest <br />SLR guidance document for California (2024 OPC), extreme <br />precipitation guidance such as Cal-Adapt and the 2023 SF Bay <br />Precipitation guidance developed for the City of San Francisco. The <br />2023 CCSF guidebook is a more recent extreme precipitation study for <br />the SF Peninsula, so preferable consideration to this study over the <br />2023 CCSF guidebook will be done by the Consultant. Moreover, the <br />consultant will use the 2022 SFEI Groundwater Report and associated <br />depth to groundwater surfaces to define current groundwater depths <br />and predict future groundwater conditions. The 2024 OPC guidance for <br />Alameda for the Intermediate/High SLR scenario as it is the closest <br />NOAA gage listed in the OPC guidance. A still water tide level approach <br />will be used for modeling as the extent of Project is not currently subject <br />to significant wave hazards. Waves will be considered in the design of <br />improvements in Task 10. <br />c.Task 5.a.3 Modify Criteria: <br />a.The Consultant will use the Creek Model as a base model as it includes the <br />entire project area, and incorporate features from the detailed ELLA Model <br />(such as one-dimensional open channel and bridge modeling in the lower <br />ATTY/AGR.2025.317/Wood Rodgers, Inc.
