The City will be responsible for 20% in local matching funds to be provided as a cash contribution. Funding for the project will be allocated from the Planned Local Drainage Fund (Fund 211) and should the City be awarded the grant from OCTA, staff will return to the City Council at a future meeting with a request for appropriation of funds. Recommended Action: Adopt Resolution No. 2024-16, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Authorizing an Application for Funds for the Environmental Cleanup, Tier 1 Grant Program Under Orange County Local Transportation Ordinance No. 3 for the Huntington Beach Trash Removal Project, Phase III - V2."

City of Huntington Beach Page 1 of 2 Printed on 4/10/2024 power LegistarM File #: 24-231 MEETING DATE: 4/16/2024 Analysis: The OCTA Measure M2 Environmental Cleanup Program (ECP), Tier 1 is designed to mitigate the more visible forms of pollution, such as litter and debris that collects on the roadways and in the catch basins prior to being deposited in waterways and the ocean. The program enables eligible jurisdictions to purchase and install structural best management practices such as screens, filters, and other "street scale" low flow diversion devices. Approximately $3 million is available during this call for projects and these funds are meant to supplement existing water quality programs. In an effort to comply with adopted State Trash Provisions to limit trash and debris greater than 5 mm from entering water bodies, the City is requesting to apply for grant funding up to $600,000 from OCTA to retrofit the Hamilton storm water pump station (10101 Hamilton Avenue) with a system designed to capture trash/debris. This system is a custom design (non-proprietary) designed to capture trash/debris within the forebay of the pump station for removal prior to discharge of the stormwater/urban runoff to the adjacent County stormwater channel (the Huntington Beach channel). The retrofit of the pump station will enable the City to reduce the amount of trash and debris reaching local recreational water bodies as well as comply with the requirements in the Trash Provisions. Environmental Status: This action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
