Project Description
Citywide Storm Drain Improvement Project – The project consists of construction of various storm drain
improvements to eliminate localized flooding and reduce stormwater pollution including installation of
new catch basins and storm drain, repair of existing broken storm drains and CMP drainage culverts, and
repair of existing storm drains at railroad crossings.
Page 1 of 5
1) Front Street – Installation of two (2) catch basins with trash capture devices and 18” storm drain
pipe.
2) Front Street Alley – Upgrade to existing collapsed 12” ACP storm drain with RCP and install trash
capture devices at 2 existing catch basins.
3) Malone Drive @ South Grasshopper Slough – Replacement of existing 48” CMP arch culvert that
is partially collapsed and undersized (restricts 100-yr flow).
4) Railroad Crossings – Replacement and/or rehabilitation of four (4) 18” storm drains crossing
underneath Union Pacific Railroad Right of Way and installation of trash capture devices.

Project Rationale/Issues Statement
Flood Management:
A large portion of the Wheatland area is designated to be in FEMA Flood Zone A. The project is
intended to increase flood protection and reduce localized flooding during major storm events.
Specifically, the project would:


increase flood protection for the residents of the City of Wheatland
aim to increase collaboration with adjacent reclamation districts to enhance flood management for
public safety
Water Quality Contamination: Urban and Agricultural Run-off:
By installing trash catchment devises the project would improve water quality by mitigating for urban
runoff.

Goals/Objectives/Performance Metrics
Goals Addressed by the
Project
Goal 2: Protect, restore and enhance water quality for water users and
in support of healthy watersheds
Goal 5: Protect public safety through emergency and drought preparedness
and integrated flood management
Objectives Addressed by
Project
What performance metrics
will be used to demonstrate
that objectives are being met?
Wherever possible, provide a
quantitative measurement
2.1 Protect and improve water quality by mitigating for urban,
agricultural and sediment run-off;
5.1 Improve integrated flood management to ensure emergency
preparedness, increase flood protection and enhance regional and
inter-regional collaboration. In particular, this project would eliminate
areas prone to localized flooding.

The project success will be measured by the collaboration of
the City of Wheatland and surrounding reclamation districts to
increase flood protection to the City and surrounding areas
within the floodplain.

Proper routing of runoff
The project incorporates Flood Risk Management
Strategies by constructing necessary drainage
improvements.
Statewide Priorities
Climate Change Response Actions

Adaptation to Climate Change: Water management system modifications that address
anticipated climate
Practice Integrated Flood Management

Improved flood protection
Protect Surface and Groundwater Quality

Protecting and restoring surface water and groundwater quality to safeguard public and
environmental health and secure water supplies for beneficial uses
Climate Change Adaptation
The project will assist in adapting to regional effects of climate change by improving the drainage system
in Wheatland. Improvements to the drainage system will provide lower flood risk to existing right of
way and adjacent property while providing treatment of storm runoff.
GHG Emissions Reduction
Construction- related GHG emissions reduction strategies will be considered during the design phase of
the project.

If you are an Urban Water Supplier: N/A
1. Have you completed an Urban
Water Management Plan and
submitted to DWR?
2. Are you in compliance with
AB1420?
3. Do you comply with the water
meter requirements (CWC Section
525)?
