Adopt a resolution authorizing the Executive Director of the Public Works Agency to submit
projects for funding consideration under the OCTA Environmental Cleanup Tier 1 Grant Program.
DISCUSSION
The Orange County Transportation Authority is accepting grant applications for the Measure M2
Environmental Cleanup Program. The Measure M2 Tier 1 Grant Program 2011 Call for Projects
will allocate $2.8 million Countywide in fiscal year 2011-12. The program is designed to support
projects that help prevent transportation-generated pollution.
Projects eligible for funding are those that will filter and prevent litter and debris from entering the
City's storm drain system and ultimately in Orange County waterways. Specifically, this program
includes funding for upgrades to existing catch basins with Best Management Practices, such as
storm water screens, filters, inserts, and other "street-scale" low flow diversion projects.
The City will submit five applications requesting $100,000 each to install catch basin screen/filters
city wide to reduce/remove trash from urban runoff (Exhibit 1). Each application targets a specific
area known to contain land uses that generate high volumes of trash. Collectively, the five
applications aim to help reduce pollution in the Upper Newport Bay, Bolsa Chica State Beach and
the Santa Ana River. The OCTA Board is scheduled to award the grant funds to the cities in July
2011 and the construction of projects must be completed by June 2012.
