Zanker Material Processing Facility Stormwater Basins Project

Zanker Material Processing Facility Stormwater Basins Project

The project consists of a Planned Development rezoning and permit (File Nos. PD23-004, PDC22-007) to allow the construction of two separate, unlined stormwater basins (northwest and southwest basins) to retain, treat, and store stormwater runoff from the existing ZMPF site. The northwest basin (NW Basin) would be located within the existing Planned Development Zoning boundary of the ZMPF, at the base of landfill perimeter levee in the northwest area of the ZMPF site. The NW Basin would have a total capacity of approximately 8.4-acre feet (approximately 366,000 cubic feet or 2.7 million gallons) and a footprint of approximately 1.55 acres. The NW Basin site is undeveloped and is currently used as an unpaved temporary parking lot. The southwest basin (SW Basin) would be located adjacent to the ZMPF site but outside of the existing Planned Development Zoning boundary at the southwest corner of the ZMPF site along Los Esteros Road. The applicant proposes to expand the PD Zoning boundary in order to include the SW Basin site within the ZMPF boundary. The SW Basin would have a total capacity of approximately 21.9-acre feet (approximately 950,000 cubic feet or 7.1 million gallons) and a footprint of approximately 3.03 acres. The area where the SW Basin would be located is undeveloped and consists of historically diked baylands that have had limited to no tidal connectivity since at least 1948. The habitat in this area is considered transitional upland, which is a non-sensitive natural community.
