<br />14 <br />level rise related flooding of up to 72 inches or more. See Figure 9 for a map of areas inundated by 72 <br />inches of sea level rise, and Figure 10 for a list of key exposed assets under different levels of sea level <br />rise. At 72 inches, the Marina and neighborhoods east of it are completely inundated. This includes <br />Mulford Gardens and Marina Faire neighborhoods, as projected flooding reaches most of the area west <br />of the railroad and extends out into the neighborhoods east of the railroad and south of Fairway Drive. <br />Exposed assets include two non-emergency ambulance facilities located on Wicks Boulevard, <br />Washington Manor Middle School, James Madison Elementary School, St. Felicitas School, and the <br />Marina Community Center, which also serves as a National Shelter Service facility. <br />To the north, additional flooding occurs behind the Oyster Bay Regional Shoreline. Ten facilities that use <br />or contain hazardous materials onsite are inundated at this magnitude of sea level rise throughout the <br />city, with five facilities clustered inland of the Oyster Bay Regional Shoreline and the Oakland <br />Metropolitan Golf Links. These include the Davis Street Smart, Copper Harbor Company, Foamex <br />Innovations Operating Company, Safeway Milk Plant, Benkiser Electric, Cast Aluminum and Brass <br />Corporation, and the Wyman Gordon Company properties. To the south, the East Bay Dischargers <br />Authority Joint Outfall and facilities owned by the US Printing Ink Corporation, Coca Cola Bottling <br />Company of California are also exposed. <br />By 96 inches, flooding creeps further into the neighborhood south of Cedar Avenue and west of the I- <br />880 by another two or three blocks. While few additional critical assets are immediately impacted as <br />water levels rise above 72 inches, the number of people affected will continue to increase significantly. <br />Overall, the potential impacts to the sewer system and the number of schools threatened by sea level <br />rise flooding will increase threats to public health from sewer overflows and backups, mold and rust, <br />limit the number of community resources available to use as shelters, and threaten vulnerable <br />neighborhoods in the southwest regions of the city. In addition, as water levels encroach on shoreline <br />amenities along the Bay and into the industrial and manufacturing areas slightly inland, many of the <br />resources that the city depends on to thrive economically may be challenged and forced to close or <br />relocate outside the city. Appropriate planning and adaptive measures focused on mitigating these <br />impacts will be essential for the City of San Leandro. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />58
