Water Features
Concord, CA: (Jan-14-08) The government brought a civil lawsuit against Albert D. Seeno Construction Co., alleging that the company improperly filled two water features in the Mira Vista development. Sources stated that a 1979 Environmental Impact Report, however, failed to identify any water features on the property and the city of Antioch did not require further studies during the almost 20 year build out of the project. Additionally, an environmental consultant in 2006 failed to find one of the alleged water features and could not conclusively determine the existence of the other.
The company reached a $2.9 million civil settlement, resolving the case. The money will be used for conservation projects in Eastern Contra Costa County including a fish ladder project for enhanced environmental restoration and creek improvements in Marsh Creek. Additionally, the company will also convey undeveloped land with a creek running through it consisting of 60 acres in Antioch's southern hills to the East Bay Regional Park District.
