13.(a) Alternate considered for the high reservoir water land
and road extension was construction of a buttress dam on the ex-
isting land, subject to Right-of-Way Grant No. CA-13255-2800 (NV-
033), to contain the high effluent water in a wet year storm
event, and extension of the access road on top of the buttress
dam. The alternate to the fences required by the California
Regional Water Quality Control Board, Lahontan Region, was no
project mitigation.
(b) The buttress dam and extension of the access road on top
� of the dam was not selected because of excessive cost.

event is required to prevent effluent spills. The road extension
is required above said high water line. The fences are required
by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Lahontan
Region.
15. (a) Included in estimated $14,043,000.00 construction con-

result in an increased cost in excess of $200,000.00.
(c) Effluent spill protection and habitat mitigation.
(d) The alternate to the construction yard would be location
on private property at a considerable increase in cost, destruc-
tion of County paved roads by heavy equipment, and disruption of
agricultural endeavors.
