The Oro Loma Sanitary District has applied to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), San Francisco District, for a Department of the Army Permit for the proposed Oro Loma Sanitary District Wet Weather Equalization and Ecotone Demonstration Project , which would construct a multi-purpose wet-weather equalization facility that will include both a treatment wetland and an upland ecotone slope for polishing of treated wastewater. The facility would accommodate infrequent peak wet-weather flows, and provide an opportunity to pilot several adaptation strategies related to sea level rise, water quality protection, and infrastructure sustainability. The proposed project is located near the eastern shoreline of San Francisco Bay, approximately 4 miles south of the Oakland International Airport.
