Project Description
The project is to purchase two vehicles, a street sweeper and vactor truck, for the City of Wheatland
Public Works Department for stormwater management and water quality purposes. Purchase of the
vehicles will allow the City to maintain compliance with the State and Regional Water Quality Control
Boards and the Clean Water Act requirements. The volume of trash and debris collected by street
sweeping and storm drain cleaning will be documented and monitored. This project is an integral

component of the City of Wheatland’s Storm Drain Master Plan and towards the development of a
Stormwater Management Program.
IV.
Project Rationale/Issues Statement
The purchase and use of equipment allows the City’s stormwater program to maintain regulatory
compliance with State and Regional Water Quality Control Board and the Clean Water Act requirements.
Specifically, the project addresses the following identified regional issues:
Water Quality Contamination: Urban Run-off
Maintain and improve water quality by mitigating for urban runoff
Regulatory Compliance
Mitigate for the impacts of regulatory compliance on water management decision-making and
processes, including increased costs and decreased opportunities for collaboration
Climate Change
Respond to projected climate change impacts on water supply reliability, water quality, public safety and
watershed health and develop regional and inter-regional adaptive management strategies
V.
Goals/Objectives/Performance Metrics
Goals Addressed by the
Project
Increase downstream water quality by reducing storm water pollution.
Specifically, this project meets the following Plan goal:
Goal 2: Protect, restore and enhance water quality for water users and
in support of healthy watersheds
Objectives Addressed by
Project
Goal 6: Address climate vulnerabilities and reduce greenhouse gas
emissions
Capture pollutants before they reach receiving waters. Specifically, this
project addresses the following Plan objectives:
2.1 Protect and improve water quality by mitigating for urban,
agricultural and wildland (sediment) run-off;
2.2 Minimize water quality impacts from flood, effluent discharge and
wastewater spills;
2.5 Maintain and improve water quality required to restore and
protect freshwater ecosystems, fisheries and groundwater-dependent
habitat;
2.6 Support regulatory compliance with current and future state and
federal water quality standards.
6.3 Increase system flexibility and resiliency to adapt to climate
variability

What performance metrics
will be used to demonstrate
that objectives are being met?
Wherever possible, provide a
quantitative measurement
reflecting successful project
outcomes.
VI.



Increase monitoring and reporting of pollutants that are
captured annually at each location, and compare year to year
results.
Decrease pollutants entering the stormwater system and
ultimately the river course.
Increase public safety and flood protection
Resource Management Strategies
Improve Water Quality
Pollution Prevention
VII.
The project incorporates pollution prevention by
allowing the City to purchase vehicles designed to aid in
stormwater management and pollution prevention.
Statewide Priorities
Use and Reuse Water More Efficiently

Capture, store, treat, and use urban stormwater runoff (such as percolation to usable aquifers,
underground storage beneath parks, small surface basins, domestic stormwater capture
systems, or the creation of catch basins or sumps downhill of development
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 Response Actions

Adaptation to Climate Change: Water management system modifications that address
anticipated climate
Climate Change Adaptation
This project allows the City to effectively remove debris from the storm drain system as an essential
preventative measure to mitigate for localized flooding. Climate change vulnerabilities for the region
suggest that more extreme storm events may contribute to the intensification of regional flooding. This
project significantly contributes in adapting to these conditions.
GHG Emissions Reduction
The project would purchase a new vactor truck and street sweeper that are cleaner vehicles with lower
emissions than the existing, less effective equipment. The purchase of this equipment would assist the
City in meeting street-level air quality management district standards.
