  • SUMMARY of BEACH FIRE RULES in CALIFORNIA! There Are Approximately 435 Beaches in the State of California ( Sitelist.Html)
    !SUMMARY of BEACH FIRE RULES in CALIFORNIA! There are approximately 435 beaches in the State of California (http://www.beachcalifornia.com/ sitelist.html). Of these about 38 beaches allow fires (http://www.beachcalifornia.com/beach- !bonfires-california.html) . ! It appears that ONLY Carmel Beach allows unlimited numbers of fires and ONLY Carmel does !not require a designated fire pit! Two major new programs have been implemented to try to further manage this issue, one in the National Park Service at Ocean Beach and one at Newport Beach. They are outlined below. !Following that are the published beach fire rules from the remaining beaches, cities or counties. ! ! NPS PILOT PROJECT Ocean Beach Fire Revised Pilot Program On Friday, May 23 new regulations went into effect for fires on Ocean Beach. This follows a proposal announced on April 21, 2014 to implement a Revised Pilot Program for fires at Ocean Beach. The Revised Pilot includes changes to the existing program in order to address growing concern about the unsafe conditions resulting from these fires, and the unsustainable level of staff effort required to ensure public safety and compliance with regulations. Public feedback was received through May 16, 2014. Information about this Revised Pilot, which includes an impact assessment, response to public comments, amendment to the compendium, and copies of the data collection forms that will be used can be found on this webpage; click Document List on the left, then click on the document title to download. Changes to the Fire Program: - 12 new fire rings installed - Fires must be extinguished at 9:00 PM - Fires prohibited on all Spare the Air Days year-round - Data will be collected on compliance with regulations At the end of the Revised Pilot, once the data collected is evaluated, The National Park Service will determine the next steps for the fire program on Ocean Beach.

  • Assessing the Economic Benefits of Reductions in Marine Debris: a Pilot Study of Beach Recreation in Orange County, California
    FINAL REPORT Assessing the Economic Benefits of Reductions in Marine Debris: A Pilot Study of Beach Recreation in Orange County, California FINAL | June 15, 2014 prepared for: Marine Debris Division National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration prepared by: Chris Leggett, Nora Scherer, Mark Curry and Ryan Bailey Industrial Economics, Incorporated 2067 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02140 And Timothy Haab Ohio State University Executive Summary Marine debris has many impacts on the ocean, wildlife, and coastal communities. In order to better understand the economic impacts of marine debris on coastal communities, the NOAA Marine Debris Program and Industrial Economics, Inc. designed a study that examines how marine debris influences people’s decisions to go to the beach and what it may cost them. Prior to this study, no work had directly assessed the welfare losses imposed by marine debris on citizens who regularly use beaches for recreation. This study aimed to fill that gap in knowledge. The study showed that marine debris has a considerable economic impact on Orange County, California residents. We found that: ● Residents are concerned about marine debris, and it significantly influences their decisions to go to the beach. They will likely avoid littered beaches and spend additional time and money getting to a cleaner beach or pursuing other activities. ● Avoiding littered beaches costs local residents millions of dollars each year. ● Reducing marine debris on beaches can prevent financial loss and provide economic benefits to residents. Marine debris is preventable, and the benefits associated with preventing it appear to be quite large. For example, the study found that reducing marine debris by 50 percent at beaches in Orange County could generate $67 million in benefits to Orange County residents for a three­month period.

    720 East Sixth St. HABS No. CA-2851 Santa Ana Orange County California PHOTOGRAPHS WRITTEN HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE DATA HISTORIC AMERICAN BUILDINGS SURVEY National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior 1849 C Street NW Washington, DC 20240-0001 HISTORIC AMERICAN BUILDINGS SURVEY 720 EAST SIXTH ST. HABS No. CA-2851 Location: 720 East Sixth St. is located in the block bounded by East Sixth St., Lacy St., East Fifth St., and North Porter St. The property is situated within the Fruit Addition tract.1 The property is located at latitude: 3734728.998, longitude: 420286.1564. The coordinate was taken in August 2010, near the front door of the residence at 720 East Sixth St., using a Garmin GPS 60CSx unit with accuracy of +/-5 meters before post processing the data. The coordinate’s datum is North American Datum (NAD) 1983. The location of 720 East Sixth St. has no restriction on its release to the public. Present Owner/ Occupant: City of Santa Ana Present Use: Vacant Significance: The single-family residence at 720 East Sixth St. is architecturally significant as an intact and representative example of a bungalow with Colonial Revival-style influences. Located in the Lacy neighborhood, the property is also historically significant as one of the original residences of the “Fruit Addition” tract, which was associated with increased residential development in the vicinity of the new railways that reached Santa Ana during the late 1800s, providing vital connectivity to the city. Due in part to their proximity to the railroad and the downtown business district, centered at Fourth and Main Streets, buildings in the Fruit Addition tract supported a mix of residential and industrial uses and were some of the earliest developed areas of Santa Ana.
