Item #14 CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT FOR THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JUNE 18, 2002 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS FROM: AMER JAKHER, P.E., CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION REQUEST SUBMITTED BY CHM2HILL, INC., TO APPROVE THE TEMPORARY ROAD CLOSURE OF SLOVER AVENUE, BETWEEN PEPPER AVENUE AND SYCAMORE AVENUE, BEGINNING JUNE 23, 2002, AND ENDING JULY 7, 2002, FOR THE PURPOSE OF INSTALLING A WELL MONITOR AND UNDERGROUND CABLES. DATE: JUNE 6, 2002 BACKGROUND: Currently, there are three (3) existing Groundwater Monitoring Wells installed within the right-of- way adjacent to the CAL-NEV Pipe Line property located at 2051 E. Slover Avenue. These wells were constructed in October of 2001, as a part of a site investigation conducted by Kinder Morgan Energy Partners (KMEP), operating partnership of Cal-Nev, in association with the State of California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). The installation of these permanent wells was done by CHM211ill, Inc., who will be installing an additional Groundwater Monitoring Well and underground cables in this same area. In order to install the additional well, CHM211ill, Inc. has requested an Encroachment Permit and a Street Cut Permit, and the closure of Slover Avenue between Sycamore Avenue and South Pepper Avenue, beginning 12:00 midnight, June 23, 2002, and ending 12:00 midnight, July 7, 2002. ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION: This area is in the "fly zone". CHM211ill, Inc. has contacted the Department of Fish and Wildlife and received permission to excavate in this area; a Fish and Wildlife official will be monitoring the excavation process. The Encroachment Application submitted by CHM2Hill (see Exhibit "A", attached) has been reviewed by Engineering Department staff, and an Encroachment Permit and a Street Cut Permit are ready for issuance based upon the information submitted by CHM2Hi11, hic. Slover Avenue has been closed for this type of work on previous occasions, and the inconvenience to local residents is minimal as the location is Industrial in nature. An Engineered wet -signed Traffic Control Plan has been required of the applicant, and must be approved prior to closure. The proposed detour route is included in Exhibit "A", attached.
