Consider recommendations regarding Public Works Director’s Report on Emergency Response Actions from Impacts of the 2024 Lake Fire and Continuation of Emergency Actions, Third and Fourth Districts, as follows: (4/5 Vote Required)

 

Acting as the Board of Directors, Flood Control and Water Conservation District:

 

a) Receive and review a report from the Public Works Director regarding emergency actions taken pursuant to Resolution No. 19-327 and Public Contract Code Section 22050 related to emergency operations responding to 2024 Lake Fire and the necessity of the action and the reasons the emergency will not permit delay resulting from competitive solicitation of bids;

 

b) Determine that there is a need to continue the emergency actions ordered by the Public Works Director (4/5 vote required);

 

c) Direct staff to return to the Board every 14 days to allow the Board to review the emergency actions and determine, by a 4/5 vote, whether there is a need to continue the emergency actions until the actions are terminated;

 

d) Authorize the Public Works Director or designee to execute an Emergency Watershed Protection Funding Agreement, with concurrence from County Counsel, Risk Management, and the Auditor-Controller, and any other associated documents, necessary to receive Natural Resources Conservation Service funding, if approved, for emergency work in response to the Lake Fire; and

 

e) Determine that the 2024 Lake Fire emergency actions were found by the Board to be exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15269(d) on October 1, 2024.  A Notice of Exemption was filed on this basis on October 1, 2024, and the proposed action is within the scope of that Notice of Exemption.
