USACE, City of South San Francisco host public meeting for Lower Colma Creek study

San Francisco District Release — Tue, 28 Jun 2022 18:19:00 GMT

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the City of South San Francisco (SSF), together with the SSF - San Bruno Water Quality Control Plant are partnering on a coastal storm damage reduction project for the Water Quality Control Plant and one of its pump stations. Our goal is to manage the risk that coastal flooding poses to this critical infrastructure, to maintain critical services, despite the increasing flood risk that is expected with sea level rise. Flood-inducing plant failure could result in raw sewage backups into homes and streets, as well as emergency sewage releases into Colma Creek. This project aims to reduce the risk of these damages, and increase the community’s resilience to flood risk.
