Reason for Recommended Action/Background

On April 9, 2019, the Yolo County Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 19-46 accepting funds from the California Department of Water Resources ("DWR") for a State-Federal Flood Control System Modification Program project titled: Huff's Corner Levee Raise & Channel Reconfiguration Project ("Project").  On August 7, 2019, the County and DWR executed Agreement No. 2019-FSRP-NA21-01 ("Project Agreement") for the Project.  The Project involves raising the Huff's Corner Levee to its original design height and reconfiguration the Cache Creek channel to control erosional forces acting against the levee.  

The California Legislature recently approved a provision to extend the deadline for the termination of Prop 1E funds.  The Project is a recipient of these funds through DWR Agreement No. 4600013693 ("Agreement") (Attachment A).  The Agreement terminates on December 31, 2022.  Adoption of this resolution will formally request a 2-year extension to the Agreement.  This extension is necessary for the County to fully utilize all the granted funds from DWR.

Collaborations (including Board advisory groups and external partner agencies)

The Office of County Counsel has approved the resolution as to form.
