Document Description
The Miller Road stockpile site supports EBMUD's efforts to proactively replace and rehabilitate critical water system infrastructure. Annual pipeline replacement is estimated to increase from 20 to 25 miles per year to approximately 30 miles per year by 2030. There is a need to increase the stockpiling and storage of materials to support this increase in pipeline replacement needs. The Project involves the continued operation of the Miller Road stockpile site, including import, temporary storage, and periodic removal of trench soil. The Project also includes continued operation of the rock and sand stockpile site located approximately 1 mile south of the Miller Road soil stockpile site on EBMUD-owned property within the Project site. Materials from the rock and sand stockpile site are used to backfill trenches from the pipeline construction and maintenance activities. Continued operation of the rock and sand stockpile site includes import, temporary storage, and removal of these backfill materials. The Project includes a gradual increase in the volume of trench soil stockpiled at the Miller Road site, routine removal of stockpiled trench soil (off-haul events), and an increase in the Import and off-haul of backfill materials to and from the rock and sand stockpile site.
