Alternate II,80mgd,would take care of District No.2’s
needs and provide 30 mgd capacity for the immediate require
ments of upstream agencies.Alternate III,l8’4 mgd,would
provide a backbone facility with pipe capacity for anticipated
future ultimate requirements of the Santa Ana River Basin.
The three alternate bids were taken because it was not known at
the time if Chino Basin Municipal Water District would partici
pate in the project.However,Alternate I may now be eliminated
from consideration inasmuch as the Water District has advised
that they will proceed with joint participation in the construc
tion of the interceptor.
The proposed concept for increasing the capacity,which has been
approved by the State Water Resources Control Board subject to
approval by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),would be
accomplished by issuing a change order to the contractor to
construct the larger diameter pipe line (Alternate III,l8~mgd).
This would increase the pipe capacity by 122%at an additional
cost to District No.2 of only approximately $l.Ll million or
22%,and provide a system to enable the optimum multiple use of
major facilities to Improve environmental quality in the Basin,
which is the largest self—contained natural drainage basin in
Southern California.The State and Federal construction grant
program wduld not share the additional cost.
Director Finnell pointed out that members of the Environmental
Protection Agency’s staff expressed concern that the larger
pipe size might encourage population growth in the Southern
California area which is contrary to existing Federal policy,
and for this reason,EPA had reservations of approving the
concept.
Federal representatives have suggested that the District Board
declare its intent with respect to increasing the capacity of
the interceptor,following which EPA will further consider the
proposal arid advise the Board of their decision in this regard.
Following a report by the Director of Finance concerning the
financing capability of the District to fund the cost of increasing
the capacity of the Santa Ana River Interceptor,the Board entered
into a general discussion of the proposal.It was then moved,
seconded and duly carried:
That the letter from the State Water Resources Control Board,
dated August 2Lt,1972,approving the concept for increasing
capacity of the Santa Ana River Interceptor,Contract No.2—1~4—l,
be received and ordered filed;and,
FURTHER MOVED:That the Board of Directors hereby declares Its
intent to increase the capacity of the Santa Ana River Interceptor
Sewer from Reclamation Plant No.1 to Katella Avenue,Contract

proposed to be awarded under Alternate II (80 mgd)to Alternate III
