5 INTRODUCTION 1.1 What is Green infrastructure? "Green Infrastructure" (Gl), also known as "Green Stormwater Infrastructure", is infrastructure that uses various mediums such as vegetation, soils, and natural processes to manage water and create healthier ecosystems and urban environments. At the scale of a city or county, green infrastructure refers to the patchwork of natural areas that provide habitat, flood protection, cleaner air, and cleaner water. At the scale of a neighborhood or project site, green infrastructure refers tdmormwater management systems that mimic nature by soaking up and storing wiler. Green infrastructure provides amenities with benefits beyond water quality improvement and groundwater replenishment, including creation of attractive streetscapes, habitat, reduction of heat island effect, and bicycle and pedestrian accessibility. Examples of Gl include resilient, sustainable systems that slow, ftjfbr, harvest, infiltrate and/or evapotranspirate runoff such as: landscape-based stormvi j er "biotreatment" using soil and plants ranging in size from grasses to trees; pervious paving systems (e.g., interlocking concrete pavers, porous asphaltlsbydervious concrete); rainwater harvesting systems (e.g., cisterns J^j'ain banels) pi^pfner methods tcfilbpture and treat stormwater. These practicesig pf%jsp known cl ^ Impact Development (LID) site design and treatment measures. Gl roadway projects are typically called "Green-Streets"."Another term of art related to street design is "Complete Streets". This term comes from the transportation field and deals with the designing of st _,, particular to increase safety anckaccess for cyclists and pedestrians. The integration of the goals of both Complete Streets and Green Streets has coined several new terms such as "LivingStreets", "Bettepi Pts() and 'fllstainable Streets". This movement recognizes that environmentally and holistically designed streets achieve many benefjtlpfcreased fncreasec fn't)1ti-modal\travel and safety; clean water and air; climate change resilier savings; land mitigati^^>jace^fcking andhfommunity cohesion; habitat and energy j higher property values.% ; A key part of the Gl definitijjptn the /sllihicipal Regional Stormwater National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit is the inclusion of both the private and public realm for the integration of Gl systems. This has been done in order to plan, analyze, implement and credit Gl systems for pollutant load reductions on a watershed scale, as well as recognize all Gl accomplishments within a municipality. However, the primary focus of the Gl Plain and Framework is the integration of Gl systems into public rights-of-way. The Gl Plan is not intended to impose retrofit requirements on private property, outside the standard development application review process for projects already regulated by the MRP, but may provide incentives or opportunities for private property owners to add or contribute towards Gl elements if desired. 5
6 1.2 Stormwater Quality Regulatory Requirements The City of San Jose (City) is subject to the requirements of the recently reissued Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit (MRP) for Phase I municipalities and agencies in the San Francisco Bay area (Order R ),, which became effective on January 1, The MRP applies to 76 large, medium and small municipalities (cities, towns and counties) and flood control agencies that discharge stormwater to San Francisco Bay, collectively referred to as Permittees. Over the last 13 years, under the MRP and previous permits, new development and redevelopment projects on private and public property that exceed certain size thresholds ("Regulated Projects") have been required to mitigate impacts on water quality by incorporating LID site design, pollutant source control, stormwater treatment and flow control measures as appropriate. LID treatment measures, such as rainwater harvesting and use, infiltration, and biotreatment, have been required on most Regulated Projects since December Construction of new roads is covered by these requirements, but projects related to existing roads and adjoining sidewalks and bike lanes are not regulated unless they include creation of an additional travel lane. A new section of the MRP requires Permittees to develop and implement long-term Green Infrastructure (Gl) Plans for the inclusion of LID measures to treat stormwater flow prior to entering into the storm drain infrastructure on public and private lands, including streets, roads, storm drains, parking lots, building roofs, and other elements. The Gl Plan must be completed by September 30, As part of the Gl planning process, the MRP requires Permittees to adopt a Green Infrastructure Plan Framework (Framework) by June 30, The Framework, a work plan for completing the Gl Plan, must at a minimum include a statement of purpose, tasks and timeframes to complete the required elements of fhe Gl Plan. Other sections of the MRP include requirements for municipalities to control pollutants of concern (POC) to water quality in stormwater discharges, including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), mercury, trash and pesticides. LID measures incorporated into green infrastructure can help remove these pollutants from stormwater runoff. For this reason, the MRP establishes a new linkage between public infrastructure retrofits and required reductions in discharges of certain pollutants, specifically PCBs and mercury. Over the next few decades, Permittees must reduce the loads of PCBs and mercury in stormwater discharges through various means, with a portion of these load reductions achieved through the installation of Gl systems. Furthermore, the City reached a settlement agreement with San Francisco Baykeeper that became effective August 11, The lawsuit was brought against the City under the Clean Water Act for exceedance in bacteria levels in the Guadalupe River and Coyote Creek. As a result of the settlement, the City is obligated to develop a Comprehensive Load Reduction Plan (CLRP) that will describe how the City will implement green infrastructure to reduce bacteria entering the storm sewer system. The CLRP will likely be a part of the Gl Plan. The settlement agreement also requires the City to appropriate a total of at least $100 million over a 10 year period to implement the CLRP. 6
7 1.3 Purpose and Goals of Green Infrastructure Plan The purpose of San Jose's Gl Plan is to describe how the City will transform its urban landscape and storm drainage systems from "gray" to "green"; that is, shift from traditional storm drain infrastructure, where stormwater runoff flows directly from impervious surfaces into storm drains and receiving waters, to a more resilient, sustainable system that reduces and slows runoff by dispersing it to vegetated areas, promotes infiltration and evapotranspiration, collects runoff for non-potable uses, and treats runoff using biotreatment and other green infrastructure practices. The Gl Plan will also be used to demonstrate the City's long-term commitment to implementation of green infrastructure to help reduce loads of POCs, particularly mercury, PCBs, and bacteria discharged in stormwater to local waterwagbhe Gl Plan will be coordinated with other City plans and existing regulations relat^lllillknd use, transportation, parks, urban forestry, and sustainability plans, to achiey^pultipl^lp;ptential benefits to the community, including improved water and catfjlality, reduc&f.flooding, increased water supply, traffic calming, safer pedestrian and bicycle facilities, climate resiliency, improved wildlife habitat, and a more healthful urban environments ^Slik The purposes of this Framework are to: 1. Provide background on the MRP requiremenfsfor Gl Planning; 2. Describe the purpose, goals, and tasks to deffjgp the City's Gl Plan; and, 3. Outline the time frames for the creation of the City's Gl Plan and other Gl tasks required in the MRP. The goals to be achieved by the Gl plan includef;??- Create or enhance recreational and public use areas, open space and parks. Increase water reuse an ^cyclingif jhon-potable reuse and direct and indirect potable reuse. ijjg^ Utilize local and regional surface and underground water storage, including groundwater aquifer recharge projects. 'Reduce, managejtfeat/br capture stormwater. Demonstrate quanlijpively that PCBs load reductions will be achieved through implementation of green infrastructure. Demonstrate quantitatively that mercury load reductions will be achieved through implementatissof green infrastructure. Educate the public^thot storm water and dry weather runoff are underutilized sources of surfaclllrater and groundwater supplies and should be considered resources. Eliminate harmful bacteria from discharging to creeks from the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4). Capture and "re-purpose" storm water for a variety of potential benefits, including (but not limited to) water supply, flood control, habitat enhancement/restoration, and creating green spaces. Retrofit public right-of-ways to exhibit complete streets or sustainable streets features. 7
8 1.4 Overall Approach to Developing a Green Infrastructure Plan The Gl Plan will ultimately serve as an implementation guide and reporting tool during this and subsequent MRP terms to provide reasonable assurance that urban runoff waste load allocations will be met. This is a large undertaking for a city of San Jose's size and will require close collaboration amongst all City departments including those that may affect future alignment, configuration, or design of impervious surfaces. Prior to implementing the plan the City will also need to provide information to the public and Council to ensure understanding of the goals of Low Impact Development and green infrastructure and to encourage acceptance of future projects. The overall approach to developing a Gl Plan will involve three steps broadly defined as identifying pollutants, identifying control measures, and selecting locations for control measures. There are many stormwater pollutants to be addressed by Gl but for the purpose of this Gl plan the focus will be on PCBs, mercury, and bacteria. Monitoring in San Francisco Bay (Bay) has revealed the bioaccumulation of PCBs and mercury in sportfish consumed from the Bay. The levels found are thought to pose a health risk to people consuming these fish. This led the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board (Water Board) to develop TMDL waste load allocations for PCBs and mercury in the Bay. In addition, Baykeeper found bacteria to exceed applicable receiving water limitations in local creeks for which MS4 discharges may be causing or contributing to impairment. The Gl Plan must show how PCBs, mercury, and bacteria will be reduced by control measures. There are many control measures identified as effective in reducing pollutant loading related to bacteria, PCBs, and mercury. Control measures typically fall into three categories: Institutional Controls, Distributed Green Infrastructure, and Regional Stormwater Projects. Institutional controls are non-constructed measures that limit the amount of stormwater runoff or pollutants to be transported through the storm drain system and to the creeks. Examples of institufional controls include policies and ordinances requiring proper disposal of construction debris or household hazardous items, or inclusion of trash enclosures on all commercial property. Distributed green infrastructure projects consist of small scale treatment control measures constructed over small or large areas to provide localized treatment. Distributed green infrastructure, for example, can include control measures such as bioretention bulb-outs and permeable pavers along street right-of-ways. Regional stormwater projects are large scale green infrastructure treatment control measures that are intended to collect and treat runoff from a large area. These projects could include large above-ground or below-ground runoff capture facilities located in large open space areas or under existing uses to which runoff from large acreages of impervious surface can be directed. 8
9 In order to select locations for control measures, the City will utilize a reasonable assurance analysis (RAA) model that will be developed using hydrologic/hydraulic, pollutant loading, and cost data. The model will be used to determine areas of fhe Cify with higher pollutant loading and the most cost effective ways to implement control measures to provide reasonable assurance of the reduction of pollutant loads. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) will be a component of the model that will help identify potential locations for control measures within the right-of-way and on public property. The City will coordinate the model outputs with the Storm Sewer Master Plan to identify projects that can provide both flood protection and water quality improvement. In addition, projects may be located in arejgs where development and public improvements will provide opportunities to incorporate green infrastructure such as in Urban Villages and Priority Development Areas.jflben infrastructure will also be considered when planning any traffic safety improvement projects to ensure street designs meet complete street guides which incjuftpi^torr^feiter runoff management. 2.0 GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE P 2.1 Summary of Require^Jlements To meet MRP requirements, the C certain mandatory elements: Infrastructure (Gl) Plan will need to contain Project Identification and Priori mechanism by which the City wil planned projects that incorporate drainage areas within the City. These! may be implemented over the long ten 2020, 2030, and The mech and outputs that can be incorporate capital improvendtshf program (CIP) processes. : The Gl Plan must describe the and map potential and infrastructure components in different ;lude public and private projects that with milestones for implementation by include the criteria for prioritizafion ito fhe City's long-term planning and Prioritized Project Locations and Timeframes: The Gl Plan must contain the outputs resulting from'lie identification and prioritization mechanism described above, sue laps of prioritized projects and timeframes for implementati Itputs must also include "targets" or estimates of how much impervious within the City will be converted or "retrofit" to drain to a green infrastructure feature, such as a vegetated area or stormwater capture or treatment facility, by the 2020, 2030, and 2040 milestones. Completed Project Tracking System: The Gl Plan must describe the City's process for tracking and mapping completed public and private projects and making the information available to the public. Guidelines and Specifications: The Gl Plan must include general design and construction guidelines, standard specifications and details (or references to 9
10 those documents) for incorporating green infrastructure components into projects within the City. These guidelines and specifications should address the different street and project types within the City, as defined by its land use and transportation characteristics, and encourage projects to provide a range of functions and benefits, such as stormwater management, bicycle and pedestrian mobility and safety, public green space, urban forestry, etc. Integration with Other Plans: The Gl Plan must describe its relationship to other planning documents and efforts within the City and how those planning documents have been updated or modified, if needed, to support and incorporate the green infrastructure requirements. If any necessary updates or modifications have not been accomplished by the completion of the Gl Plan, the Gl Plan must include a work plan and schedule to complete them. Evaluation of Funding Options: The Gl Plan must include an evaluation of funding options for design, construction, and long-term maintenance of prioritized green infrastructure projects, considering local, state and federal funding sources. Maintenance and Monitoring Plan: As required by the settlement agreement with San Francisco Baykeeper, the City must include in its CLRP a maintenance and monitoring plan to assure BMPs effectively reduce flow. City staff plan to incorporate the CLRP into the Gl Plan. In addition, the City must adopt policies, ordinances, and/or other appropriate legal mechanisms to allow implementation of the Gl Plan. The City must also conduct outreach and education to elected officials, department managers and staffs, developers and design professionals, and the general public as part of development and implementation of the Gl Plan and implementation of specific projects within the Gl Plan. 2.2 Approach to Completion of Required Elements Outreach and Education This section describes the City's approach to each required element. The City is committed to working within its Environmental Services (ESD), Public Works (PW), Planning, Building and Code Enforcement (PBCE), Parks, Recreation, and Neighborhood Services (PRNS), and Transportation (DOT) departments and with the Santa Clara Valley Water District and the Santa Clara Valley Urban Runoff Pollution Prevention Program (SCVURPPP) to complete the required Gl Plan elements described in Section 2.1 Outreach and Education. One of the first steps in the development of the Gl Plan is establishing, among department staff, managers, and elected officials, an understanding of the purposes and goals of green infrastructure, the required elements of the Gl Plan, and steps needed to develop and implement the Gl Plan. It is important that all City departments 10
11 provide their support and commitment to the Plan and this new approach to urban infrastructure. Another important step is local community and stakeholder outreach to raise public awareness and gain public support. The City began this process in fiscal year (FY) and FY by completing the following tasks: Convened interdepartmental meetings with department staff and management to discuss Gl requirements and tasks. Discussed with appropriate department staff the MRP requirements to analyze proposed capital projects for opportunities to incorporate Gl, and completed the first list of planned and potential Gl proieolfbiil Provided training to staff on Gl requiremerfflbnd strq workshops and other training tools developed by SC N jies using the Gl 1PPP. Coordinated with SCVURPPP on a l pmprehensive outreach and education program. Key audiences include: the general public (countywide, and in the neighborhood or municipality where Gl projects are located); tl^development community (e.g., develodbsii&aaineers. law^pbipe architects, and contractors); and elected officials.

Continue to provide outreach to the general public and development community in coordination with SCVURPPP. Continue to conduct internal training, as needed, and send staff to SCVURPPP trainings. 11
12 2.2.2 Project Identification and Prioritization The City will use the following approaches to identify, prioritize and map potential and planned projects that incorporate green infrastructure components in different drainage areas within the City: a. Reasonable Assurance Analysis Model: San Jose will identify and prioritize multi-benefit Gl projects throughout the City, using a metrics-based approach for quantifying project benefits such as reductions in flow from each sub-wafershed of the MS4 to receiving waters. The metrics-based analysis will be conducted using hydrologic/hydraulic and water quality models coupled with GIS resources and other tools. The products of these analyses will be a map of opportunify areas for Gl projects throughout the watershed, an initial prioritized list of potential projects, cost estimates, and strategies for implementation of these and future projects. The list of potential projects within the City will then be incorporated into the City's Gl Plan. Review of Capital Improvement Program Projects for Green Infrastructure Opportunities: As required by the MRP, the City prepared and will maintain a list of public and private Gl projects that are planned for implementafion during the MRP term, and public projects that have potential for Gl measures. The first such list was submitted with the FY Stormwater Annual Report. These lists will be used to provide potential projects for inclusion in the Gl Plan Prioritized Project Locations and Timeframes The Gl Plan will include the prioritized list of projects and map of locations within the City's jurisdiction resulting from Task above, as well as timeframes for implementation. The outputs will also include "targets" or estimates of how much impervious surface within the City will be converted or "retrofit" to drain to a green infrastructure feature, such as a vegetated area or stormwater treatment facility, or converted to pervious surfaces, by the 2020, 2030, and 2040 MRP milestones Completed Project Tracking System This section of the Gl Plan must describe the City's process for tracking and mapping completed public and private projects and making the information available to the public. The City will work with SCVURPPP to develop a consistent countywide approach to tracking and mapping completed projects and estimating expected PCB and mercury load reductions resulting from these projects. 12
13 2.2.5 Guidelines and Specifications The City will support and participate in the SCVURPPP process to develop and adopt Gl Design Guidelines and Specifications for streetscapes and other public infrastructure. A set of model Guidelines and Specifications will be developed at the countywide level which will be used as a reference by the City. San Jose will evaluate the model Guidelines and Specifications for consistency with its own local standards, and revise existing guidelines, standard specifications, design details, and department procedures as needed. The Guidelines and Specifications will also include alternative approaches to sizing Gl facilties where pr< space in public right-of-way, utility conflicts, etc.) required sizing criteria for such facilities Integration with Other Municipal Plans of the regional analysis of constraints (e.g., limited ully meeting the permit- The City will review its existing municipal planning documents and id! ify which documents need to be updated or modified fd%(d op(nfdhd be consi: ; with the Gl Plan, and the timing for those upmteipr modifications.

15 The City will analyze possible funding options for capital and ongoing operation and maintenance costs associated with the projects that will eventually be included in the Gl Plan. Options for capital project funding include fhe State Proposition 1 Stormwater Grant Program implementation grants, Prop 1 IRWMP grants, California Urban Rivers Grants. Additional funding options that will be explored by the City include: Treatment at an Offsite Location - An alternative compliance option in which a private Regulated Project (one required to treat runoff from created and replaced impervious surface on the project) would instead treat runoff from an equivalent amount of impervious surface offsite, potentially in the public right-ofway, in LID treatment facilities it would pav^jfohstruct (and/or maintain). That is, the private developer would fund amjfepxfersee construction of a potential green infrastructure project identified Ipfrhe City.

It must describe the City's process for maintaining and monitoring BMPs to determine compliance with flow reduction requirements. The City will evaluate alternatives to develop a consistent approach to maintaining and monitoring completed projects. 15
16 Adoption of Policies, Ordinances, and Other Legal Mechanisms The City will review its existing policies, ordinances, and other legal mechanisms related to current planning procedures and implementation of stormwater NPDES permit requirements to Identify which documents may need to be updated or modified to help implement the Gl Plan, and the timing for those actions. In addition, the City will develop and adopt a separate legal mechanism to ensure implementation of Gl. All needed updates, modifications, or new mechanism(s) will be completed and adopted by September 30, In the Gl Plan or separately in the 2019 City of San Jose Stormwater Annual Report, the City will describe any updates to ordinances, policies, plans or programs needed to implement the Gl Plan and associated programs, or state that existing mechanisms are sufficient to implement the Gl Plan Completion and Adoption of the Gl Plan The City will draft its Gl Plan to contain all of the elements described above, obtain reviews and approvals by various departments and Council, as needed, and submit the Gl Plan to the Water Board by September 30, Internal deadlines to complete and adopt the Gl Plan are presented in Table 4 below.
