    A.    That the Alameda County flood control and water conservation district right-of-way, which consists of facilities and property devoted to flood control, storm water drainage, water conservation and related uses and purposes, has attained considerable value in the county; and
    B.    That the act, by any person, of accessing or trespassing into; of dumping, discharging or depositing of rubbish or other materials onto or into; of obstructing, modifying, diverting, destroying, cutting, blocking, removing or using; of tunneling, boring, drilling or excavating onto or under; of interfering with; of spanning, constructing, or installing structures or facilities over, under or adjacent to, of landscaping on, of connecting to, or of performing any other activity which causes damage to the right-of-way, without first having obtained the approval of the district, could adversely affect the planned programs of flood control, storm drainage, water conservation and related purposes that the district has pursued since its inception in order to assure an integrated development of these systems for the benefit of the residents of the county; and
    C.    That investigation and study of the condition of the right-of-way have disclosed evidence of various improper uses and destructive acts which have impeded and hindered the district programs, thereby increasing the costs of operation and maintenance of the right-of-way and causing a corresponding burden on the taxpayers and citizens of the county.
