This memorandum provides a status report on the Shoreline Levee and Sea Level Rise Project, which aims to reduce flood risk and restore shoreline in the South San Francisco Bay area. The project is managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers in partnership with local agencies. It includes five reaches and has experienced significant cost increases since its initial authorization. Construction for the first three reaches began in December 2021 and is expected to be completed by summer 2025. Efforts are underway to reduce costs for the remaining reaches, and a Memorandum of Understanding is being developed between the City and Valley Water. The project also involves collaboration with various stakeholders to secure funding and land interests necessary for its completion.

Key points
  • The project is a multi-benefit flood risk reduction and shoreline restoration initiative.
  • It is managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers in partnership with local agencies.
  • The project aims to provide 100-year coastal flood risk management and restore approximately 2,900 acres of former salt ponds.
  • Construction for Reaches 1-3 began in December 2021 and is anticipated to be completed by summer 2025.
  • The project has seen cost increases from an initial $194 million to an updated $545 million.
  • A Memorandum of Understanding is being prepared between the City and Valley Water.
  • The project requires approximately 895 acres of land owned by the Regional Wastewater Facility.
  • Collaboration with stakeholders is ongoing to secure additional funding and land interests.
Limitations
  • The document contains unresolved placeholders and missing information, such as specific dates and dollar amounts.
  • The text appears to be a draft as indicated by the presence of placeholder sections.
