Alternatives Considered. Rehabilitation or Replacement of the existing bridge structure in place: Any localized remediation to the existing bridge foundations would only be a temporary fix due to the effects of river scour, expending maintenance funding and pushing back the inevitable need for long term replacement. It is not practical to attempt to replace the bridge foundations while the bridge remains in operational service. Closure of the bridge to perform construction work would require a suspension in railroad operations throughout this portion of the Orange Subdivision for a period of two years, severely impacting both passenger and freight services.
Alternatives Considered. There is no alternative to the proposal to execute the C&M Agreement with Caltrans. Caltrans proposes to widen SR-55 to improve capacity and traffic flow throughout the location and so the Authority needs to provide railroad protection support services to ensure continued safe operation throughout the construction period. The Cooperative Agreement with OCTA provides up-front funding to the Authority to ensure that the Authority does not draw down on its own operational funds before being compensated for the services by Caltrans. The alternative would be for the Authority not to execute the Agreement and to use operating funds prior to Caltrans reimbursement.

Alternatives Considered. The PMC and industry members discussed different alternatives to this action at the PMC’s April 3, 2003, meeting.

During the suspension, the industry will have the opportunity to consider possible order amendments to the volume control provisions. Another alternative was to terminate the marketing order. Many on the PMC and in the industry deemed termination too drastic an action and preferred to preserve the marketing order and make necessary changes to it to meet current industry needs and to reflect current industry marketing practices.
