Attach. 6 - Appendix E XUMU181025B2 Previous Storm Drain Study.pdf
PDF52112 KBMay 20, 2026
AI Summary
Evergreen JV was contracted by Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB) to evaluate the storm drain system in the cantonment area. This project, detailed in the "Evaluate Storm Drains Cantonment Area Phase 1 Final Study Analysis Report," aims to address issues like sinkholes and road damage from collapsed culverts. The investigation involved environmental surveys for special-status species, storm sewer cleaning, CCTV inspections, and condition assessments of infrastructure like culverts, manholes, and inlets. A key finding was the presence of hazardous asphaltic liners in many pipes, prompting recommendations for replacement or lining. The report also outlines a naming convention for infrastructure, a condition rating system (PACP), and replacement considerations for pipes, recommending Reinforced Concrete Pipe (RCP) or High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) based on location and cover. Unmapped infrastructure was also discovered and added to GIS files for future investigation. The study provides conceptual designs and cost estimates for recommended improvements, with a focus on mitigating environmental concerns and ensuring the integrity of the storm drain system.

AI Summary
The Cantonment Culvert Study, Phase 2, Project Number XUMU181025, is an environmental impact analysis to evaluate existing storm drains and determine future repairs. This study, led by the 30 CES/CEIEA and approved by Tiffany A. Whitsitt-Odell, GS-12, involves cleaning and videoing 364 culverts over 11.3 kilometers to assess their condition. The project is categorized as routine facility maintenance, qualifying for a Categorical Exclusion (CATEX) A2.3.10, provided all attached comments and minimization measures are adhered to. Key environmental concerns include potential impacts on California red-legged frogs and vernal pool fairy shrimp, necessitating pre-activity surveys, biological monitoring, and adherence to specific avoidance measures during the dry season. Hazardous materials, such as road contaminants, will be removed and disposed of off-base. The project emphasizes preventing pollutant discharge into Waters of the U.S. and requires coordination with various environmental functions for compliance with air quality, water resources, and waste management regulations.
