The document is a status report on the Shoreline Levee and Sea Level Rise project, managed by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) with local sponsorship from the Santa Clara Valley Water District. The project aims to provide coastal flood risk management and restore habitat. Work was paused in September 2021 due to cost escalations, but additional federal funding was secured in February 2023, and a value-engineering exercise is underway.
