OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
CITY OF BAKERSFIELD LEVEES
ALONG
THE BANKS OF THE KERN RIVER
LOCATED IN KERN COUNTY
PART I - INTRODUCTION
This manual is intended to guide the operation and maintenance of the flood control levee system located along
the banks of the Kern River in the City of Bakersfield. This manual specifies the policies and procedures that are
part of the responsibilities of the City of Bakersfield Water Resources Department (Department) with regard to the
operation and maintenance of these facilities. Also, this manual is developed to meet the requirements of Title
44, Article 65.10 of the Code of Federal Regulations per the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)
Regulations. Essential instructions are provided in sufficient detail to ensure proper operation of the flood control
protective works and maintenance of these facilities in a manner that will assure their continued function.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REGULATIONS
1. The levees of the Kern River, known as the South and North Levees, were constructed utilizing local funds.
Federal monies were not involved. However, in order to comply with Federal requirements implemented by
the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)'this manual
has been developed to meet the requirements of Title 44, Article 65.10 of the Code of Federal Regulations
per the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) Regulations.
2. Title 33, Article 208.10 of the Code of Federal Regulations regarding maintenance and operation of structures
and facilities for local flood protection also applies. An extract has been included in Appendix A of this
manual.
3. Facilities are operated in accordance with the Kern River Channel Maintenance Program adopted in 1985.
AGENCIES RESPONSIBLE FOR OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE
4. The City of Bakersfield Water Resources Department (Department) is the organization responsible for
operation and maintenance of the South and North Levees along the Kern River in the City of Bakersfield.
The Department is required to maintain divisions capable of adequately operating and maintaining the project
units for flood control. The Department shall appoint an official (referred to "Superintendent" in the basic
regulations) who shall be responsible for the inspection, development, and proper functioning of the
Department's Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Division in accordance with instructions in this manual. The
Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Division is charged with the responsibility for the operation and
maintenance of this facility and all other Department facilities.
FUNCTIONS OF THE OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATIONS
5. Functions of the division responsible for the operation and maintenance of the flood control system are
traditionally divided into two categories: those concerned with operations or use of the flood control facilities,
and those involved in the continuing maintenance of the facilities themselves. These functions are detailed in
PART III and Part IV of this manual, respectively, and are summarized here.

ORIGINAL
a. Operation, as defined in this context, encompasses all uses of the flood control system or any of its
components. The principal and overriding purpose of the system is clearly the conveyance of storm -
runoff in such a way that the impact of the runoff on urbanized area through which it passes is
minimized and the efficient functioning of the project produces the benefits set forth in the project
authorization. The operations function, then, is subdivided as follows:
The flood operation function includes responsibility for operating the project in accordance
with Federal and local flood control regulations. There are several aspects to flood -operation
procedures.
1) The Mobilization Function includes responsibility for providing sufficient equipment,
material, and trained personnel for adequate operation of the project units in times of
flood emergency.
2) The Coordination Function requires that appropriate measures be taken to ensure
that the activities of all local organizations connected with the protective works are
coordinated with the operating agency during flood periods.
3) The Inspection Function provides for scheduled patrolling of flood control activities
during periods of storm runoff in order to detect and correct any condition which
endangers the structure. Also included in this function is a complete inspection
following each major high water period, to ascertain if any other damage has
occurred
b. Maintenance includes all activities concerned with ensuring proper and continued functioning of the
project units. The aspects of the maintenance function are as follows:
i. The Inspection Function requires that such inspections shall be made as are necessary to
ensure that the flood control facilities are maintained in a properly functioning condition.
ii. The Public Interest function includes the responsibility for providing police protection of the
project units and the responsibility for public health and safety in connection with the various
flood control facilities.
iii. Federal regulations require that no improvement or construction within the project right-of-
way or change in any feature of the flood control facilities be made without prior
determination by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) District Engineer or
his authorized representative, and that the improvement or alteration will not adversely affect
the structural integrity of the channel and appurtenant facilities and the hydraulic functioning
of the flood control facilities, nor violate environmental agreements. This responsibility
includes all determinations concerning multi-purpose uses of the project. The regulations also
imply a corollary responsibility which requires inspection and supervision of work at all stages
of construction to ensure that such work adheres to proper engineering standards. These
responsibilities are categorized as the project review function.
iv. Use and alteration of Department facilities by others is controlled by an encroachment permit
process within the O&M Division and the Engineering Subdivisions Division of Public Works.
The Permit section is headed by a Civil Engineer. Encroachment permits for all connections
to Department facilities, and/or use of Department property, are issued only if the proposed
use will not have an adverse effect, and is compatible with the facilities' intended function.
v. Federal regulations require that the O&M Division prepare a semiannual report to the USACE
District Engineer covering operation and maintenance of the flood control facilities, together AKF9�

PART II - PROJECT INFORMATION
GENERAL
'This manual is prepared as a guide for the operation and maintenance of the City of Bakersfield levees along the
southern banks of the Kern River located in Bakersfield, CA.
The levees along the southern banks of the Kern River, also known as the South Levee and those levees located
on the north and south banks from the UPRR Bridge to the Manor Street Bridge were constructed by private land
owners in the late 1800's and early 1900's for flood protection against the Kern River in and around the City of
Bakersfield and for irrigation. Before Isabella Dam was constructed by the Army Corp of Engineers in the 1950's
Bakersfield suffered from periodic winter and springtime flooding due to erratic and extreme flows from the Kern
River caused by rainfall, snowmelt, or a combination of both. With the dam in place, coupled with the levees,
flooding occurrences due to the Kern River were minimized. However, in the event of heavy rainfall, high flows
would still course through the Kern River in Bakersfield. Although the Isabella Dam reduces the outflow to the
Kern River to a minimum from the Isabella Reservoir during high inflows, tributaries to the Kern River downstream
of the dam increase flows in the river through Bakersfield. These high flows would cause extensive flooding if the
levees were not in place.
Up until 1976 the Kern River properties, facilities, and water rights through Bakersfield were under private
ownership and operation. In 1976 the City of Bakersfield successfully purchased pre -1914 Water Rights and river
properties, and associated facilities. The City owns most portions of the Kern River Channel between Manor St.
and Enos Lane. The City of Bakersfield Water Resources Department assumed all responsibilities for the Kern
River Levee District in June of 2000. The river and its facilities, excluding the north levee which is maintained by
the Kern County Water Agency, is now operated and maintained by the City of Bakersfield Water Resources
Department.
Since the purchase of the river the City has replaced all existing weirs along the river and has made other
significant improvements. The City has constructed and maintains and operates the Kern River Parkway along
the South Levee which consists of various parks and.mostimportantly the Bike Path. The Bike Path is a paved
road atop of the South Levee that is used for bicycle transportation and as a levee maintenance road. The South
Levee generally follows west along the left bank of the Kern River from Manor Street to the extension of Renfro
Road. The North Levee extends from Manor Street to the UPRR Bridge and is also maintained and operated by
the City of Bakersfield. Side slopes of the levees vary, with a maximum of 2H:1V. Where warranted by higher
than 2 feet per second velocity flows, the levee banks have a revetment consisting of rock riprap.

PART III - OPERATION
Chapter 1 - Introduction
GENERAL
1. The term "operation" encompasses all uses of the flood control system or any of its components. Clearly, the
principal use of the system, the purpose for which it was designed and constructed, is to collect and convey
storm runoff in such a way that its impact on urban areas is minimized. The maintenance program and flood -
operation procedures are oriented toward this purpose.
2. One of the guidance for this section of the.manual is the Department's Storm Patrol Manual (Appendix D),
which presents the guidance and direction of the Department during flood alerts. The Department's manual
covers duties and responsibilities, and administration and logistics of each division during the flood events.
Included topics are operation and repair of the facilities, patrol, data collection, and data evaluation. The
responsibilities for each level of the Storm Center Chain of Command are included in Section 9 of the Storm
Patrol Manual and are shown on Figure 1.
3. The Department's Storm Patrol Assignments identify areas (levee reaches) of responsibilities and facilities in
those areas and lists potential problem areas in each section. A "Storm Patrol Observations" form is included
for use by each patrol. Emergency procedures for operations and maintenance of Department facilities are
also contained in the Storm Patrol Manual.

PART IV — MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
Chapter 1 — Introduction.
OVERALL MAINTENANCE RESPONSIBILITIES
1. Periodic inspections of the levees need to be conducted to determine if any corrective actions are necessary
in order for the facilities to operate as required. Routine inspections are to be conducted semiannually;
however, inspections may take place more often after a major storm event.
2. The Data Sheets in Appendix B provides relevant information of significant features for the levee. This
information includes reach descriptions; structural information; access roads and ramps to top and toe of
levees, bridges, and other pertinent features; and river gage locations and flood level limits.
The Code of Federal Regulations, Title 33, Article 208.10, Section (b) states, "The Superintendent shall
provide at all times such maintenance as may be required to ensure serviceability of the structures in time of
flood." Although the broad scope of this directive allows considerable freedom of interpretation, it clearly
implies a responsibility to detect and correct any condition which might adversely affect the functioning of the
flood control system. Explicitly defined are the maintenance function, which involves actual repair and
restoration procedures; and the inspection function, which includes programs and procedures necessary to
detect hazardous or malfunctioning conditions.
4. Implicit in this directive are also several additional functions which are less directly related to the immediate
maintenance requirements, but which affect the continued functioning of the system in a manner appropriate
to its design purposes. These implicit functions include the public interest, project review, and reporting
functions.
Chapter 2 — Maintenance Function
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE MEASURES
5. The Code of Federal Regulations, Title 33, Article 208.10, Section (b) Levees— (1) Maintenance, specifies in
some detail the routine maintenance procedures for various types of flood control facilities. The entire Article
is provided below:
The Superintendent shall provide at all times such maintenance as may be required to insure serviceability
of the structures in time of flood. Measures shall be taken to promote the growth of sod, exterminate
burrowing animals, and to provide for routine mowing of the grass and weeds, removal of wild growth
and drift deposits, and repair of damage caused by erosion or other forces. Where practicable, measures
shall be taken to retard bank erosion by planting of willows or other suitable growth on areas riverward of
the levees. Periodic inspections shall be made by the Superintendent to insure that the above maintenance
measures are being effectively carried out and, further, to be certain that:
i. No unusual settlement, sloughing, or material loss of grade or levee cross section has taken place;
ii. No caving has occurred on either the land side or the river side of the levee which might affect
the stability of the levee section;
iii. No seepage, saturated areas, or sand boils are occurring;
iv. Toe drainage systems and pressure relief wells are in good working condition, and that such
facilities are not becoming clogged;
V. Drains through the levees and gates on said drains are in good, working condition;
vi. No revetment work or riprap has been displaced, washed out, or removed;
OAKF
11 p� 9cP�
v o
ORIGINAL
vii. No action is being taken, such as burning grass and weeds during inappropriate seasons, which
will retard or destroy the growth of sod;
viii. Access roads to and on the levee are being properly maintained;
ix. Cattle guards and gates are in good condition; /
X. Crown of levee is shaped so as to drain readily, and roadway thereon, if any, is well shaped and
maintained;
xi. There is no unauthorized grazing or vehicular traffic on the levees;
xii. Encroachments are not being made on the levee right-of-way which might endanger the structure
or hinder its proper and efficient functioning during times of emergency.
Such inspections shall be made immediately prior to the beginning of the flood season; immediately
following each major high water period, and otherwise at intervals not exceeding 90 days, and such
intermediate times as may be necessary to insure the best possible care of the levee. Immediate steps will
be taken to correct dangerous conditions disclosed by such inspections. Regular maintenance repair
measures shall be accomplished during the appropriate season as scheduled by the Superintendent.
The Water Resources Superintendent shall provide for periodic repair and cleaning of debris basins, check
dams, and related structures as may be necessary.
6. Facilities are operated in accordance with the Kern River Channel Maintenance Program adopted in 1985.
7. Periodic inspections shall also be performed to verify that:
a. No undermining of levee revetment, floodwalls, and drainage structures are occurring;
b. No cracks of concrete structures are occurring.
8. Any areas of the levee that require maintenance and repairs must be identified during the inspection function,
described in Part IV Chapter 3 of this manual. The recommended repair actions are described below. The
terms are organized by the terms under which the items on the inspection form are categorized. In case of
severe damages on the levee and/or concrete structures, it is important to investigate the cause of the
problems as to apply necessary repairs.
a. Vegetation —All unwanted vegetation that could reduce the performance of the levee should be
removed by mechanical or manual means.
b. Depressions and Rutting — Any depressions, ruttings, or settlements in levees that cause a change in
grade or cross section should be backfilled and compacted to original line and grade with material
similar to the existing levee. This repair would also prevent water from collecting on the top of levee
and spilling down along the slopes to cause surface erosions.
c. Erosion / Bank Cavinq — Erosions will first be identified as an occurrence by nature or some other
identifiable occurrence. Types of erosion should include both surface erosions at top and side slopes
of the levee and toe erosions which may cause undermining of levee toe and structure foundation.
After the source has been identified, all corrective measures will take place. Erosions will be
backfilled and compacted to the original state with material similar to the existing levee.
Surficial Slope Stability — For slope stability problems identified after the inspection, the Department
maintenance with the assistance of Engineering will take the appropriate action to correct the,
problem.

f- m
U r
O
ORIGINAL
e. Deep Seated Slope Stability — For deep seated slope stability problems identified after the inspection,
the Department maintenance with the assistance of Engineering will take the appropriate action to
correct the problem.
Cracking — Cracking on grouted stone revetment and concrete floodwalls needs to be repaired.
Continued development of crack patterns and increase in size are evidence of stress and possible
loss of integrity in the levee structure. Large cracks greater than 6 inches deep should be sealed to
prevent penetration of the structure by water and migration of backfill material through the cracks. If
cracking is identified during the inspection of levee, the Department maintenance will review the
problem and, if a field determination cannot be made to correct the problem, will ask for the
assistance of Engineering to evaluate the condition and recommend repairs.
g. Animal Burrows —All levees will be monitored for any and all rodent activity during the course of the
year. Animal burrows can lead to seepage and slope stability problems of the levee structure.
Appropriate measures will be taken to determine the need for proper rodenticides for any infestation
identified. Burrows and runways formed within the levees should be opened and backfilled with
material similar to the existing levee through compaction.
h. Encroachments — Levees will be monitored throughout the year for any encroachments. Proper
signing will be maintained and any access gates will be secured.
i. Revetments and Banks —All riprap and grouted stone revetments on banks of the levees will be
maintained annually. Any deficiencies will be repaired in kind with the appropriate type of material
and/or hardware. This would include replacing deteriorated or displaced riprap and grouting due to
storm damages and wear and tear on the structure due to the age.
j. Closure Structures — Closure Structures will be checked for proper operation and an assurance will
be made that all devices function as intended. The devices will be opened during the maintenance to
remove any debris accumulation inside outlets and check the conditions of culverts. All culverts will
be maintained to assure they drain properly and that all culverts are in good operational condition.
k. Under -seepage and Relief Wells — Levees with sub drains and toe drains will be cleaned and flushed
as needed to function properly. Any vegetation obstructing these drains will be removed as needed.
Water Seepage will be monitored and a determination will be made on the corrective action to be
taken.
Maintenance and Emergency Accesses — Maintenance and emergency roads and ramps will be clear
of obstructions and in good conditions. Fence gates will be secured and regularly adjusted for ease of
operation.
NON -ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
9. Certain maintenance procedures, which are not explicitly described as routine by the sections of referenced
Title 33, are implied by the directive to ensure serviceability in times of flood. Such procedures would include
repair of any damage caused by earthquake, storm runoff, maintenance of the embankment roadway and the
right-of-way fencing (so as to provide unimpeded access to the project units at all times), restoration of
subdrain system, and other such required maintenance which occurs on an irregular basis.
10. Following a significant earthquake in the region, the Department should perform inspection of the levees with
consultation from an experienced geologist or seismologist. After the inspection, the Special Report is
required to be submitted to the USACE District Engineer (See Part V, Chapter 1). Data regarding a seismic
event (magnitude, peak ground acceleration, etc.) can be found at the internet site
www.earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/. The seismic events that would require the inspection of the levees are
as follows:
13 o��AK�c9s
a �

v o
ORIGINAL
a. A magnitude 5.5 or greater earthquake with an epicenter located within a 50 mile radius of the levee.
b. Any seismic event that generates a peak ground acceleration of 0.20g or greater in the proximity of
the levee.
c. Any seismic event that causes ground cracking or subsidence in the vicinity of the levee alignment.
EQUIPMENT AND MATERIAL FOR FLOOD FIGHTING ACTIVITIES
11. Equipment and material used for flood fighting activities will be coordinated by the Field Operations Center.
The Storm Patrol Manual (see Appendix D) lists the addresses and contact information of the maintenance
yard and equipment pools of the Department to be used during the emergencies. It also includes names and
phone numbers of staff in charge of the yards.
12. The list of equipment available for flood fighting activities is updated annually. Currently the available
equipment includes dozers (2), dump trucks (22), loaders (15), excavators (1), motor graders (3), backhoes
(6) skid steers (3), and a lowbed (1). The equipment is available at the Water Resources Department and the
City's Corporation Maintenance Yard.
Chapter 3 — Inspection Function
PERIODIC INSPECTIONS
13. Inspections shall be made immediately prior to the beginning of the flood season, immediately following each
major high water period, and otherwise at intervals not exceeding 90 days, and at such intermediate times at
such may be necessary to ensure the best possible care of the protective works.
14. The purpose of these inspections is to determine whether or not the flood control system is in a properly
functioning condition. This responsibility involves locating and recommending repairs for any damage which
may have been caused by storm runoff or the action of other natural forces, ensuring that access to all project
units is maintained at all times, and preventing unauthorized encroachment on or access to the project right-
of-way. The Code of Federal Regulations is quite specific on this point; Title 33, Article 208.10, Section (a)(4)
states:
No encroachment or trespass which will adversely affect the efficient operation or maintenance of the
project works shall be permitted upon the rights-of-way for the protective facilities.
15. Inspections of the levee system will be made by qualified staff who are familiar with the design, construction,
and maintenance of small dams and levees. Personnel from the Department will use information included in
this manual as well as the publication "Levee Owner's Manual For Non -Federal Flood Control Works"
prepared by the US Army Corps of Engineers (March 2006) as guidance for levee inspection. The inspection
reports will be reviewed by a registered Civil Engineer of the State of California.
16. The Data Sheets in Appendix B of this report provide the criteria for locating and recommending repairs. They
define each reporting feature, and briefly summarize the features' pertinent design criteria. This information
provides the inspection personnel with a design background to assist in determining recommended repair
measures. The Data Sheets in Appendix B provide a complete listing of reporting features.
17. The results of the periodic inspection are noted in the appropriate semiannual report; these results provide the
basis for the maintenance program as a whole.

Chapter 4 — Public Interest Function
POLICE PROTECTION
18. The operation and maintenance division is responsible for providing police protection for the project units,
obtaining adequate ordinances protecting the units, and obtaining limited police authority for the operation
and maintenance organization. Adequate policing will minimize litter and damage due to malicious mischief.
The City of Bakersfield Recreation and Parks Department and the Water Resources Department are
responsible for removing litter and repairing any such damage.
PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY
19. The operation and maintenance department should develop liaison with organizations responsible for public
health in order to prevent the accumulation of waste discharges, insect -breeding areas, and other menaces in
the flood control rights-of-way.
20. Unimpaired access to all flood control facilities by authorized personnel must be provided at all times.
However, this access must be restricted to prevent trespassing or uses which might interfere with flood
control. The facilities may be regarded as an attractive nuisance, and adequate fencing must be provided to
prevent unauthorized persons, especially children, from gaining access to the right-of-way and harming either
themselves or the facilities. However, security provisions must consider recreational uses, where applicable.
Chapter 5 — Project Review Function
AUTHORIZATION
21. The basic authorization of the Project Review Function derives from the Code of Federal Regulations, Title
33, article 208.10, section (a)(5), which reads in part as follows:
No improvement shall be passed over, under, or through the walls, levees, improved channels or
floodways, nor shall any excavation or construction be permitted within the limits of the project right -of
way, nor shall any change be made in any feature of the works without prior determination by the District
Engineer of the Department of the Army or his authorized representative that such improvement,
excavation, construction, or alteration will not adversely affect the functioning of the protective facilities.
Such improvements or alterations as may be found to be desirable and permissible under the above
determination shall be constructed in accordance with standard engineering practice.
Advice regarding the effect of proposed improvements or alterations on the functioning of the project and
information concerning methods of construction acceptable under standard engineering practice shall be
obtained from the District Engineer or, if otherwise obtained, shall be submitted for his approval.
Drawings or prints showing such improvements or alterations as finally constructed shall be furnished the
District Engineer after completion of the work.
22. These specifications apply to the Project review for all federally -constructed flood control facilities.
REVIEW PROCEDURES
23. Federal regulations assign the responsibility for providing an interface between the general public and the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers project review to the Local Sponsor. Applications for permits are submitted to
the Local Sponsor, which requests comments from the USACE and then issues or denies a permit. This
procedure applies to all facilities for which reports are made to the Corps of Engineers, but does not apply on
those units for which reports are not made.
15 o�gAKF��
T
ORIGINAL
24. The review procedures adopted by the USACE in the Sacramento District are detailed in the "Flood Control
Projects Manual".
25. The project review by the Department includes responsibility for engineering evaluation of any improvement
or alteration. In most cases, such improvements are part of the purpose for which the flood control right-of-
way was obtained, such as street or utility crossings and side drain connections. In some cases, however, an
evaluation must be made to determine if the proposed work will adversely affect the functioning of the flood
control facilities. Any future utility or pipe crossing that will be installed on the levees are required to be
reviewed through full engineering analyses, plans and specs, and permit process and approved by the
Department and the USACE.
26. The USACE maintains "as permit constructed" plans which reflect all changes or modifications in the project
units. Maintenance of current plans requires drawings or prints of all proposed work and a completion notice
to indicate that a project is finished.
27. An important part of the project review procedure is the requirement that an appropriate block -letter channel
station number visible from invert, access ramps, or embankment roadway be placed wherever possible to
identify the location of a reporting feature for inspections or maintenance work. On vertical channel or spillway
walls the block -lettering should be at a height above the invert which is convenient for lettering and readily
visible. On grouped or ingratiate stone side slopes, the lettering should be applied on flush mortared pad
areas. This identification is the responsibility of the operation and maintenance organization. Where initial
stationing was placed as a part of the construction contract, the local sponsor is responsible for maintaining
the markings.
PROJECT INSPECTIONS
28. The Department will inspect project construction to ensure that improvements or alterations do not interfere
with the proper functioning of the project and that the construction follows acceptable standard engineering
practice. These inspections will also verify locations to ensure the "as -permit constructed" plans accurately
reflect the actual condition of the project unit.

PART V — OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REPORTS
Chapter 1 — Report Function
GENERAL REPORTING ACTIVITIES
The basis for the report function is given in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 33, article 208.10, section
(a)(6) which reads as follows:
It shall be the duty of the superintendent to submit a semiannual re -port to the District Engineer covering
inspection, maintenance, and operation of the protective works.
2. Although the Department is required to submit several types of operation and maintenance reports to the
USACE District Engineer, all reporting activities must be oriented toward the submittal of two basic reports
each year. These semiannual reports are then supplemented by additional reports as necessary.
3. The following sections of this chapter define the required reports, report organization, and reporting
terminology. The reports can be narrative letter reports or summarized on a form designed by the City. The
suggested forms included in this document have been used on other projects and are included as examples.
The only requirement is that the information identified be included in the reports.
TYPES OF REPORTS
4. SEMIANNUAL OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE REPORT. The semiannual reports, which are the basic
communication on the functioning of the flood control system, are prepared in two phases: the spring phase,
which indicates the maintenance requirements of the project units at the end of the flood season; and the fall
phase, which indicates the ability of those units to accommodate storm runoff after the summer maintenance.
The two phases, with the supporting reports which may accompany the basic reports, give a successively
revised picture of the operation and maintenance of the project from the start of one flood season to the start
of the next.
5. QUARTERLY OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE INSPECTION. Federal regulations require a complete
inspection at least every 90 days to determine the need for temporary or permanent maintenance and to
initiate the necessary maintenance for the project units. However, because two such quarterly inspections
coincide with the two phases of semiannual reports, the requirements for quarterly reports are as follows:
January ................A separate report is required on a rapid inspection to determine maintenance needs. A
copy of this report is also included with the spring semiannual report.
April.....................The April quarterly inspection is for the sole purpose of determining whether conditions
exist that would interfere with the detailed inspection required for the spring phase of the
semiannual report. A separate report is not required, since the results of the April
inspection are indicated on the semiannual report form.
July.....................The July quarterly inspection is essentially a progress report on summer maintenance. A
separate report is not required, although a copy must be included in the fall semiannual
report.
October ................Maintenance work performed during the summer is repeated in the fall phase of the
semiannual report; a separate report for the quarterly inspection is not required.
The required reports need only be very brief summary descriptions of maintenance needs and the status of
the project units.
17 O� OAK�c9�
H- m
� o
ORIGINAL
6. STORM FLOW OPERATION REPORT. A supporting report which accompanies the spring phase of the
semiannual report is the storm flow operation report, which contains the log of operations during those
periods in which storm runoff is above the staff gage reading indicated on the Data Sheets in Appendix B. The
log report form shall be the responsibility of the operation and maintenance division.
7. SPECIAL REPORTS. Special reports are prepared to describe any unusual occurrence which affects the
flood control system; such phenomenon may include large flood flows or unusual damage from storm runoff,
earthquakes, or other causes. A Special Report is to be transmitted to the USACE District Engineer within
one week of the occurrence. A copy is to accompany the next following semiannual report.
8. MANUAL REVISION REPORT. The revision report should include comments, suggestions, and additional
data from those directly concerned with operation and maintenance, as well as policy-making, administration,
funding, and programming information. The Department is particularly concerned with maintaining the
accuracy of this manual.
REPORT ORGANIZATION
9. TIME OF SUBMITTAL. The spring phase of the semiannual report shall be submitted to the USACE District
Engineer on or before June 1ST and the fall phase on or before December 1ST. Included with these reports are
any quarterly reports, storm flow reports, and manual revision reports. Special reports are transmitted as
indicated previously.
10. FISCAL STATEMENTS. Information on cost of operation and maintenance is required as part of the
semiannual report. Actual costs are to be given when possible. Estimates may be used for items where actual
costs are not available. Operation and maintenance costs for any work performed or paid for by the operation
and maintenance organization are to be shown irrespective of the source of funds. Costs for work performed
by other agencies and not reimbursed by the Department are not required.
11. Inclusions in Semiannual Report.
a. The list of reports which may be included in the spring submittal is given below:
i. Spring phase of the semiannual operation and maintenance report (including the April
inspection).
ii. Copy of the January quarterly report.
iii. Storm flow, operation reports.
iv. Manual revision reports.
v. Special reports (the originals of which were previously submitted).
b. The list of reports which may be included in the fall submittal is given below.
all phase of the semiannual operation and maintenance report (including the October
inspection)
ii. July quarterly report.
Chapter 2 — Spring Semiannual Reports
PREPARATION OF FORMS
12. FORMS TO BE USE. The reporting agency has the option to use either Appendix C. Flood Control Works
(FCVV) Inspection Guide from the Levee Owners Manual for Non -Federal Flood Control Works (USACE
ORIGINAL
2006) or a similar form specifically developed for the levee facility
included in Appendix C of this report.
A copy of the FCW Inspection Guide is
13. REPORTING FEATURES. For each levee segment, all the possible reporting features are identified in the
Data Sheets of Appendix B. These are the minimum features that have to be covered in the report, and any
future improvements or conditions that warrant reporting should be included in the report.
14. RATED ITEMS. Rated items are presented in the FCW Inspection Guide. Using these items, each of the
reporting features will be rated:
a. Acceptable
b. Minimally Acceptable; Maintenance is required
c. Unacceptable
d. Not Applicable
15. If more than one reporting features is needed to be discussed for each reporting item, a third column under
"Location/Remarks/Recommendations" needs to be used to elaborate the findings. If any issue arises that is
not covered under the rated items, additional papers should be used to report them.
GENERAL REPORTING ACTIVITIES
16. SPRING HOUSECLEANING. Effective inspection and maintenance requires physical and visual accessibility
to all reporting features. Debris and vegetation should be cleared away, although meticulous neatness is not
required. The guiding principle should be that to the general public the appearance of the project units reflects
on the competency and adequacy of the flood control facilities. A specific task to be performed is the removal
of debris obscuring inspection or hindering maintenance. Accumulations on bridge piers should be removed,
and debris on toe blocks and invert slabs should be windrowed lengthwise along the invert to permit
inspection and maintenance and to prevent ponding. Vegetation obscuring inspection of channel condition
should be removed, eradicated, or trimmed, as applicable.
17. RELATIONSHIP TO APRIL QUARTERLY REPORT. As previously stated, the April quarterly report is made
for the sole purpose of determining whether conditions exist that would interfere with the detailed inspection
required for the spring phase of the semiannual reports. A separate April quarterly report is not necessary; the
results of this inspection are noted on the semiannual report.
18. CLEANING DEFERRAL. If the reconnaissance indicates that cleaning maintenance may reasonably be
performed at intervals longer than one year, the inspector should give his reasons for recommending deferral
in a similarly lettered note on an applicable backup page. However, cleaning should not be deferred if debris
or vegetation accumulation might be objectionable, and in no event shall such maintenance be phased over a
period of more than five years or deferred for more than a year. Approval of phasing or deferral by the
operation and maintenance organization must also be indicated in the note and the year that the maintenance
will be performed should be recorded.
19. The spring semiannual report should be reviewed by the Water Resources Superintendent for signature. The
reports are then used to make at least two copies of the entire report, one copy of which is filed for reference
by the operation and maintenance division and another of which is submitted to the USACE District Engineer
as indicated in the "Report Organization" subsection of "Report Functions" in this Part. The reports are then
filed by the operation and maintenance organization for use in preparing the fall semiannual report.
Chapter 3 — Fall Semiannual Report
20. The fall semiannual report describes the final inspection of repairs and project construction scheduled for
completion before the start of the flood season. It also serves to verify that the project units are ready for
storm flow.

1. Sod Cover
A There is good coverage of sod cover over the levee.
M Approximately 25% of the sod cover is missing or damaged over a significant portion
or over significant portions of the levee embankment. This may be the result of over-
grazing or feeding on the levee, unauthorized vehicular traffic, chemical or insect
problems, or burning during inappropriate seasons.
U Over 50% of the sod cover is missing or damaged over a significant portion or over
significant portions of the levee embankment. This may be the result of over -grazing

A The levee has a good grass cover with little or no unwanted vegetation (trees, bushes,
or undesirable weeds) and has been recently mowed. Except in those cases where a
vegetation variance has been granted by the Corps, a 5 meter (15') zone, free from all
woody vegetation, is maintained adjacent to the landward/ riverside toe of the FCW
for maintenance and flood -fighting activities. Additionally, a I meter (3') root free
zone is maintained to protect the external limits of the levee cross section. Reference
EM 1110-2-301 and/or local Corps policy.
M Minimal number of trees (5 cm (2") diameter or smaller) and/or brush present on the
levee or within the 5 meter (15') zone, that will not threaten the integrity of the
project but which need to be removed.
U Tree, weed, and brush cover exists in the FCW requiring removal to reestablish or
ascertain FCW integrity. (NOTE: If significant growth on levees exists, prohibiting
the inspection of animal burrows or other inspection items, then the levee inspection
should be ended until this item is corrected.)
3. Depressions/ Rutting

Instructions for the Inspection Guide
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS.
1. The sections of this report labeled 'Basic Eligibility" and "FCW Engineering" only need to be completed during Initial Eligibility Inspections.
2. Determination of Minimum Elevation for Levees and Floodwalls (#I under FCW Engineering):
Depending on available data and local Corps policy, the minimum elevation required may be calculated using traditional methods, with the addition of 1 foot of freeboard in agricultural areas and 2 feet
of freeboard in urban areas, or using annual exceedance probability, which numerically accounts for the natural variation and uncertainty when estimating discharge -probability and stage -discharge
functions so that additional requirements for elevation are based on the level of risk in the data.
3. All other sections of this guide that correspond to project features in the Flood Control Work must be fully completed during every Continuing and Initial Eligibility Inspection.
4. RODI stands for 'Requires Operation During Inspection". Items marked "RODI" will be rated based on the way they work during the inspection.
5. Additional areas for inspection will be incorporated by the inspector into this guide if the layout or physical characteristics of the project warrant this. Appropriate entries will be made
in the REMARKS block.
RATINGS OF INDIVIDUAL ITEMS:
The following terms and definitions are used when determining the rating for each item and/or component in the flood control work.
A - Acceptable: The rated item is in satisfactory condition, with no deficiencies, and will function as designed and intended during the next flood event.
M - Minimally Acceptable: This rated item has minor deficiencies that need to be corrected. The minor deficiencies will not seriously impair the functioning of the item during the next flood event.
The overall reliability of the project will be lowered because of the minor deficiency.
U - Unacceptable: The deficiencies are serious enough that the rated item will not adequately function during the next flood event, compromising the projects ability to provide reliable flood
protection.
DETERMINATION OF OVERALL PROJECT CONDITION CODE:
The lowest single rating given for a rated item will determine the overall condition of the project:
1. If all items are rated as Acceptable, the overall project condition will be rated as Acceptable.
2. If one or more items are rated as Minimally Acceptable, the overall project condition will be rated Minimally Acceptable.
3. If one or more item is rated as Unacceptable, the overall project condition will be rated as Unacceptable.
PROJECT CONDITION AND ELIGIBILITY FOR PL84-99 ASSISTANCE:
1. Projects rated as Acceptable are considered "Active" and eligible for PL84-99 post flood or storm damage rehabilitation assistance from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
2. Projects rated Minimally Acceptable are considered "Active" and eligible for PL84-99 rehabilitation assistance during the time that it takes to make needed corrections. This timeframe will be agreed
upon between the project sponsor and Corps inspector at the time of the inspection (or shortly thereafter). If the project sponsor does not present the Corps with proof of completion of the
repairs/maintenance by the end of this timeframe, then the project will be "Inactive" and will be ineligible for PL84-99 rehabilitation assistance.
3. Projects rated as Unacceptable are immediately put in an "Inactive" status and are not eligible for PL84-99 post flood or storm damage rehabilitation assistance from the Corps of Engineers. The
project will remain in an inactive status until the project sponsor presents the Corps with proof that all of the required repairs/maintenance has been completed. (This includes any repairs/ maintenance
required for project features rated minimally Acceptable, as well as those rated Unacceptable.)

SECTION 2 - GENERAL INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
Patrols are to report to the Water Resources Department to pick up all required supplies. Work in pairs.
For Stage 3 Flood Alert:
Patrol Shifts
7:00 a.m. — 7:30 p.m. Daylight Shift
7:00 p.m. — 7:30 a.m. Night Shift
EOC Shift
8:00 a.m. — 8:30 p.m. Daylight. Shift
8:00 p.m. — 8:30 a.m. Night Shift
2. Equipment and supplies to be carried by each patrol:
a. Gate keys on vehicle keys
b. Sandbags (Sandbags may be supplied to citizens during emergencies only. Sandbags are empty and
sand is available at the City's Corporation Yard. Ten or twenty bags may be given out depending on
needs of the requesting party.)
c. Hook or shovel
d. Flashlight
e. Rope
f. Rain Gear
g. Camera
h. Phone/Radio (if available)
3. Maintain contact with EOC at least every 2 hours by radio or telephone.
4. Inspect all City/Water Resources Department facilities in your area. Gate keys will be with vehicle keys. Note
flows, problems, and take photographs as appropriate. Keep record of findings and photos on report form and
turn it in at the end of patrol. Personnel going off duty should brief personnel coming on for each area
assigned.
5. Report the need for ongoing monitoring of any facility to the Water Resources Director immediately. Public
Works Director will designate Maintenance Crew, Survey Crew or Construction Inspector to such facilities for
monitoring and continuous inspection.
6. The Public Works Department will perform clean out of catch basins where safe and feasible.
7. Only Water Resources Department.personnel assigned to inline and closure structures will regulate structure
gates. Changes in structure discharges shall be relayed to the Water Resources Director or Superintendent
for coordination.
8. Expected response to citizen complaints received or referred by EOC:
a. Evaluate situation.
b. Document what you see, do and who you talked to.
c. Department cannot perform work on private property unless a Department facility is in jeopardy.
d. Refer to local City and County Fire Department. Fire Departments have a ready supply of
manpower and sandbags and may assist residents. They are usually nearer the problem than
Department personnel.
e. Concentrate efforts on observing existing Department facilities and observing flooding conditions in
area of planned projects.
4 ��ibAK, 9q
ORIGINAL
f. Report problems to Shift Manager as soon as possible.
CONTRACTOR SUPERVISION
If a contractor is hired by others, Department Construction Inspectors shall be on the job to assist, advise, and
direct Department forces and equipment as needed. All efforts involving outside contractors in flood fights are
to be coordinated with the Water Resources Manager. Corps of Engineers' representatives will direct
operations, maintain records of equipment, manpower and material used if they are involved in the flood fight.
Department staff should do likewise and turn in all paper work at the end of each shift. The authority and
responsibility for issuing orders or proclamations to the public remains with the Department, therefore,
Department representation is required when the Corps engages in a flood fight.
2. When the Corps abandons a flood fight, immediately report this information to the Water Resources Manager.
If the Department Manager authorizes the Department to take over, Department staff will advise contractors
they are now working for the Department. Department personnel shall continue to keep records and turn in all
paperwork after each shift.
3. Maintain detailed reports on "Extra Work Report" forms including:
a. Description of equipment
b. Hours worked
c. Materials delivered to jobsite
d. Personnel
OPERATION OF RADIOS
Call numbers are assigned to persons who regularly use radios. During flood periods other persons should
check to identify their radio call sign before leaving the office. Their call sign. is the patrol they are assigned
(e.g., 4A). When calling anyone, use their number first and then your number. Talk in a normal tone and be as
brief as possible. Use assigned numbers to request the person you want. Wait for the repeater to shut off
before trying to talk. Remember that many people today have scanners and can listen to all of your
conversations. Use appropriate language.
2. Some areas of the Department have poor reception. The most common way to correct poor reception is to get
elevated such as on a hill, freeway overpass or bridge. Reception can also be improved by changing the
direction the vehicle is heading or by having the engine idling.
3. Avoid talking while you are gathering your thoughts, i.e., "Okay, 10-4, will do, WHF95, 613 clear". Mobile and
base radios should sign off with WHF95.
4. Identify the area, channel and problem. Many channels have similar names and identification of the areas can
become a problem.
