study, it was concluded that results obtained from these methods would still
be rather uncertain. It was decided to use data collected to date,

E-mail from RWQCB. Additional information requested to process 401 certification. RWQCB requests that some mitigation be
proposed to mitigate the impacts of the project. RWQCB in a telephone conversation states
that such mitigation can potentially be trash pick-up, autumn removal of
tidal barrier and shaping of sand, and practice of noting the presence of
sensitive species prior to maintenance activities. RWQCB also states that some educational
signage could potentially be used as mitigation. |

Biological survey scoping begun. This is needed as part of the coastal
development permit process with the California Coastal Commission. This will assess what plants and animals
use the Scour Pond and project area as habitat, and what mitigation measures
are needed, if any. This is anticipated
to be completed in January 2003. |
|
|
Wave run-up study started. This is needed as part of the coastal
development permit process with the California Coastal Commission. This will evaluate the impacts of wave
action on any of the project components, and what mitigation measures are
needed to protect project components.
To be completed by end of January 2003. |

Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) is
finalizing permit conditions for the Section 10 and 404 permit. Public notice of the permit is expected to
be sent shortly. Primary permit condition
to finalize is the condition regarding biological monitoring during scour
pond maintenance activities. Current
proposed permit condition is for the County park ranger responsible for the
beach to prepare a preliminary report prior to maintenance activities
regarding whether or not any listed species have been observed in the
vicinity of the work. If so, then a
biological monitor would be required during maintenance activities. If not, then maintenance activities can
take place without a biological monitor. |
