Chang Su-O Lin, Hong Lien Lin, and Hong Yao Lin (hereinafter Discharger) propose to construct a mixed-use residential, commercial, and open space development on a 515- acre site in the City of Dublin (hereinafter Project). The Project consists of the following elements: a. Approximately 2,730 residential units at varying densities on about 271 acres; b. Approximately 2.3 million square feet of retail, office, and commercial uses on about 146 acres; c. 58 acres of parks; d, Dedication of 45 acres as open space; and, e, Associated roads, utilities, and other infrastructure. 2. There are approximately 10.22 acres of jurisdictional waters of the United States, including creeks and wetlands, on the Project site. In addition, the site contains an unspecified amount of seasonal creeks that are waters of the State. The site's waters of the United States are comprised of a. Freshwater seasonal creeks: 5,548 linear feet (0.52 acres, which includes 0.04 acres of associated seasonal freshwater wetlands, such as seeps); b. 0.92 acres of 1 freshwater pond; c. 8.34 acres freshwater seasonal wetlands; and d. 0.44 acres other wetlands. 3. The Project will result in the direct placement of approximately 20,300 cubic yards of fill into and/or other permanent disturbance of all of the 10.22 acres of jurisdictional waters of the United States, inCluding wetlands, and other waters on the Project site. 4. Waters on the Project site serve as habitat for the federally-listed threatened California Red-Legged Frog (Rana aurora draytonii, hereinafter CRLF), and as habitat for the state listed species of special concern and federal candidate-for-listing California Tiger _.~ Order No, R2-2003-0031 permitting for their construction will be required. However, the Discharger has provided conceptual designs for the ~ee crossings, and the Board anticipates that the crossings and any associated mitigation will be incorporated into the Mitigation Plan, as discussed in that Plan. 9. Financial Assurance: The Discharger has submitted an estimate of the cost of creek and wetland mitigation implementation, intended to serve as an estimate for the provision of financial assurance adequate to ensure the success of the proposed mitigation. This Order requires the Discharger to submit its revised estimates and appropriate supporting information, to address the revised monitoring periods in the Mitigation Plan, The Discharge has submitted the final estimates, but not the supporting information. This Order requires the Discharger to submit, prior to the start of Project construction, a bond or other appropriate instnunent of financial assurance, callable by the Board, in the amount of $3,591,620, plus the additional amount necessary to cover the revised mitigation periods. The financial assurance amount may be stepped down upon the successful completion of a mitigation item (i,e., the Northern Drainage mitigation as a whole, Lin Livermore mitigation as a whole, etc.), as determined by the Executive Officer. In addition, the Discharger may propose to step down the financial assurance for certain items, like fencing, unlikely to fail once they have been appropriately constructed. A proposal to do so must be submitted, prior to the start of Project construction, with the required financial assurance instnunent and proposal. The mitigation [mancial assurance estimates are: a. For the Northern Drainage mitigation, $1,097,740; b. For the Tassajara Creek mitigation, $479,408; c. For the Lin Livermore mitigation, $1,001,340; and, d. For the on-site creeks, $1,013,132. 10. Long-term Management: The long-term management of the mitigation sites will be transferred to an appropriate land management group or agency, subject to the approval of the Executive Officer. The Center for Natural Lands Management (CNLM) is one such group that has expressed interest in serving as the land manager of the Northern Drainage, Tassajara Creek, and Lin Livermore conservation areas. The Discharger has submitted PAR analyses estimating the endowment amounts necessary for the appropriate management, in perpetuity, of the conservation areas. This Order requires the Discharger to work with a third party land manager accepted by the Board to finalize the determination of what amount of money is necessary for an endowment fund to adequately finance the monitoring and perpetual management and maintenance of the preserve and endangered species habitat protection areas, and to submit this determination to the Board, acceptable to the Executive Officer. The Discharger has presently estimated that an amount of $963,525 is necessary, and this Order requires provision of at least this amount, or a greater amomit, as determined through consultation with the accepted land manager. Under the present estimate, the $963,525 is distributed as follows: a. For the Northern Drainage conservation area: $452,083; b. For the Tassajara Creek conservation area: $186,794; and, 4 Order No. R2-2003.0031 c. For the Lin Livermore conservation area: $324,648. 11. On September 21, 2000, the Discharger submitted an initial application for Water Quality Certification and Waste Discharge Requirements for the Project. That application was . subsequently completed by additional submittals. f""1 12. The Board has detennined to Iegulate the proposed discharge of fill materials into waters of the State by issuance of Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs) pursuant to Section 13263 of the California Water Code (CWe) and 23 CCR 93857, in addition to issuing certification pursuant to 23 CCR 93859. The Board considers WDRs necessary to adequately address impacts and mitigation to beneficial uses of waters of the State from this project, to meet the objectives of the California Wetlands Conservation Policy (Executive Order W-59-93), and to accommodate and require appropriate changes over the life of the project and its construction. , 13. The Board, on June 21,1995, adopted, in accordance with Section 13244 et. seq. of the CWC, a revised Water Quality Control Plan, San Francisco Bay Basin (Basin Plan). This updated and consolidated revised Basin Plan was approved by the State Water Resources Control Board and the Office of Administrative Law on July 20, 1995, and November 13, 1995, respectively. A summary of regulatory provisions is contained in 23 CCR 3912. The Basin Plan defines beneficial uses and water quality objectives for waters of the State, including surface waters and groundwaters. This Order is in compliance with the Basin Plan. . 14. The subject wetlands, seasonal creeks, and other waters on the Project site are located in the South Bay Basin, and are tributary to Arroyo Mocho. .Arroyo Mocho flows into the Arroyo de la Laguna, Alameda Creek, and thence to San Francisco Bay. The Northern Drainage and Tassajara Creek mitigation are tributary to Tassajara Creek, and thence to Arroyo Mocho. The Lin Livermore mitigation site is tributary to the Arroyo Las Positas, and thence to Arroyo Mocho. The Basin Plan does not explicitly identifY beneficial uses for waters on the Project site. However, the Basin Plan states that U[t]he beneficial uses of any specifically identified waterbody generally apply to all of its tributaries." The Arroyo de la Laguna and Alameda Creek have the following existing beneficial uses defined in the Basin Plan: agricultural supply, cold freshwater habitat, ground water recharge, fish migration; water contact recreation; non-contact water recreation; fish spawning; wann freshwater habitat; and wildlife habitat. Additionally, waters on the Project site provide potential habitat for the preservation of rare and endangered species, including breeding and dispersal habitat for the federally listed threatened CRLF, and breeding habitat for the state-listed species of special concern CTS. ; ;i r--..;J , 15. The Basin Plan Wetland Fill Policy (policy) establishes that there is to be no net loss of wetland acreage and no net loss of wetland value when the project and any proposed mitigation are evaluated together, and that mitigation for wetland fill projects is to be located in the same area of the Region, whenever possible, as the project. The policy further establishes that wetland disturbance should be avoided whenever possible, and if , 5 Order No. R2-2003-0OJ I not possible, should be minimized, and only after avoidance and minimization of impacts should mitigation for lost wetlands be considered. 16, The goals of the California Wetlands Conservation Policy (Executive Order W-59-93, signed August 23, 1993) include ensuring "no overall loss" and achieving a ".. .long-term net gain in the quantity, quality, and permanence of wetland acreage and values...." Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 28 states that "[i]t is the intent of the legislature to . preserve, protect, restore, and enhance California's wetlands and the multiple resources which depend on them for benefit of the people of the State." Section I3 142.5 of the CWC requires that the "[h]ighest priority shall be given to improving or eliminating discharges that adversely affect... wetlands, estuaries, and other biologically sensitive areas." , . 17. TIlls Order applies to the temporary and permanent fill and indirect impacts to waters of the State associated with the Project, which is comprised of the components listed in Finding I. Construction of the project will result in the permanent placement of fill in and/or disturbance of 10.22 acres of jurisdictional waters, including freshwater seasonal wetlands, seeps, and creeks. The permanent impact of this fill on waters was identified as a potentially significant impact in the Environmental Impact Report (hereinafter EIR) and Negative Declarations certified for the Project. r 18. The Discharger has submitted an Alternatives Analysis and supplemental information described in the Staff Report to show that appropriate effort was made to avoid and then to minimize wetland disturbance, as required by the Basin Plan. Board and federal agency staff held extensive additional discussions with the Discharger regarding its Alternatives Analysis. The Board concurs with the conclusions of the Alternatives Analysis, as supplemented. :r": , , JO.,! 19. Discharges of storm water associated with construction activity will occur. The CEQA documents certified for the Project identify such discharges, including the pollutants associated with them, as a potentially significant impact. The Discharger is responsible for obtaining appropriate pennits for these discharges, including complying with the rules and regulations of National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) pennit requirements. This includes complying with the requirements Of State Water Resources Control Board Water Quality Order No. 99-08-DWQ, the NPDES General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activity (hereinafter General Permit). 20. Discharges of storm water associated with the post-construction operation and maintenance of the Project will occur following its completion. The CEQA documents certified for the Project identifY such discharges, including the pollutants associated with them, as a potentially significant impact. The Discharger is responsible for obtaining appropriate permits for these discharges, including complying with the rules and regulations ofNPDES permit requirements. TIlls includes complying with the requirements placed on the Project under NPDES Permit CAS002983 I, the NPDES ''f 6 Order No, R2-2003-0031 Municipal Storm Water Permit that covers the City of Dublin. The Discharger has submitted a SWMP for its project that, together with the additional submittals required under this Order, is consistent with the requirements ofNPDES Permit CAS002983I, Provision C.3, the permit provisions addressing new and redevelopment projects. 21. Because of the Project's proximity to sensitive resources, including special status species habitat, and potential to discharge materials that could significantly impact those resources, this Order requires the Discharger to submit a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan or Plans (SWPPPs) for the Project, prepared pursuant to the provisions of the General Permit, at least 60 days prior to the beginning of construction for the Project. -.., 22. Discharges of ground water or other non-storm water during construction may be required. This Order considers such discharges covered by the General Permit, contingent on submittal of an acceptable discharge plan at least 30 days prior to such a discharge. 23. The Califomia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires all projects approved by State agencies to be in full compliance with CEQA, and requires a lead agency to prepare an appropriate environmental document (e.g., Environmental Impact Report or Negative Declaration) for such projects. The Board finds, after review of the Project's environmental documents, that all environmental impacts have been identified and, with compliance with the conditions of this Order, will be mitigated to a level of insignificance. On May 10, 1993, the City of Dublin certified the Addendum and Final Environmental Impact Report for the Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan, which includes the Project. On November 18, 1997, the City of Dublin certified Negative Declarations for Dublin Ranch Areas A through E, ar.d on February IS, 2000, for Dublin Ranch Areas F, G, and H, which include the Project area and/or areas associated with the Project and its mitigation. 24. On August 14, 2000; the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) issued a Public Notice for a proposed Individual Pennit for the Project (Corps File No. 25144S) pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. , . 25. On. July 1,2002, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) issued a Biological Opinion for the Project (USFWS File No. I-1-01-F-0208). 26. Pursuant to 23 CCR Sections 3857 and 3859, the Board is issuing WDRs and Water Quality Certification for the Project as described herein. , . 27. The Board has notified the Corps, City, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), CDFG, and other interested agencies and persons of its intent to prescribe WDRs and Water Quality Certification for this discharge. 28. The Board, in a public meeting, heard and considered all comments pertaining to the discharge. 7 Order No, R2-2003-0031 29. This Project file is maintained at the Board under File No. 2199.9439 and Site No. 02-01- C0508. "'1 IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Chang Su-O Lin (aka Jennifer Lin), Hong Lien Lin (aka Frederic Lin), and Hong Yao Lin (aka Kevin Lin)(hereinafter Discharger), in order to meet the provisions contained in Division 7 of the California Water Code and regulations adopted thereunder, shall comply with the following, pursuant to authority under CWC Sections 13263 and 13267: A.
