MAC Blasts Project
from June 14, 2023
By Amy Sylvestri CASTRO VALLEY FORUM
The Castro Valley Municipal Advisory Council (MAC) had some harsh words at their Monday night meeting for the East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD), criticizing the utility’s plan to transport tons of dredged soil through town on trucks.
In order to replace old pipes, EBMUD plans to move 17,000 cubic yards of trench soil from a site on Miller Road in the Castro Valley Hills to the Oyster Bay Regional Shoreline in San Leandro.
This would entail approximately 150 trucks making round trips down Redwood Road and through Castro Valley daily for the duration of the project, set for 9:00 a.m. through 4:00 p.m. weekdays from July 10 through August 8.
