The coastal environment of the southern Big Lagoon land area is composed a variably steep beach shoreline that sharply transitions into steep sheared bluffs (CCC 2014). Atop the bluffs is the Big Lagoon Estates subdivision bordered by spruce forests and a wetland bog. This particular region of the California coastal zone is a coastal interface that is continuously changing because of its consistent exposure to the highly active ocean environment, to human use, development of coastal resources, and the impacts and placement of existing urban development and planned areas of development. The Big Lagoon Estates is one of the several areas of deferred certification within the North Coast Area Plan of the Humboldt County Local Coastal Program. As Big Lagoon Estates fall within the coastal zone, the California Coastal Commission has jurisdiction and has identified that the land use designation and zoning do not appropriately reflect the coastal resources and hazards of this local coastal community for two reasons: (1) coastal erosion in the form of bluff retreat; and (2) inadequate fire flow capacity within the water services infrastructure, the improvement of which has the potential to impact sensitive bog habitat in the area. Humboldt County Senior Planner, John Miller, requested our assistance with this certification effort to provide a policy recommendation that addresses the issues identified by the California Coastal Commission. We assisted in this certification effort by developing policy options based on an understanding of the relevant policy framework and current geotechnical conditions and service infrastructure limitations of the area. We researched extensively, interviewed local experts, including the Humboldt County Planning Department and California Coastal Commission staff and conducted field visits in an effort to inform our geological, technical and spatial analysis of the issues. We found that bluff retreat in the area of Big Lagoon Estates Area of Deferred Certification surpasses land use designations and zoning adjacent to the Area of Deferred Certification. Further, improvement of service infrastructure is a prerequisite for expansion of services to accommodate potential future development and planned retreat; improvement will not affect sensitive habitat in the area. Based on these findings, and with consideration to potential policy options, we recommend an update of the Land Use and Implementation Plans to address coastal hazard by creating a Coastal Erosion Hazard land use designation that incorporates open space land use standards and those special conditions of the Coastal Commission’s Coastal Development Permit policy rulings for otherwise non-conforming structures and future development.

  • Big Lagoon Bog
    Big Lagoon Bog Bob Ziemer • McKinleyville • California • USA • [email protected] The Big Lagoon Bog is an inconspicuous 1.3 ha peatland in coastal northwestern California (Figs. 1&2). A reason the bog is of interest to me is that it contains both Sphagnum and Drosera rotundifolia—neither are rare by any stretch of the imagination. What makes this location special is that the bog is isolated with the nearest Drosera rotundifolia neighbors about 80 km north and 200 km south. Peat bogs are rare at low elevations along the coast in California. In contrast, the Darlingtonia bogs in the Klamath region are perennial wet, nutrient poor, ultramafic outcrops with little or no Sphagnum. The Big Lagoon Bog lies 3 m above sea level and is within 300 m of the Pacific Ocean coastline. The bog drains into Big Lagoon, a 590-ha brackish embayment separated from the ocean by a nar- row 6 km long sand bar. Winter rainfall raises the water level in the lagoon several meters above sea level where hydrostatic pressure and high surf breaches the sand bar allowing the lagoon to drain into the ocean and then receive tidal inflow until wave action reforms the bar. Big Lagoon Bog is one of the few peatlands in California that have received floristic study (Lep- pig 2002; Smith 2014). Leppig (2002) found a total of 77 vascular taxa at the bog of which 5 taxa were rare (Carex huxbaumii, C. viridula, Lathyrus palustris, Lycopodiella inundata, and Lycopus uniflora) and 13 alien taxa. The high proportion of alien taxa is due to the area having been logged and grazed, with adjacent homes, a county park, and a nearby campground.

  • Northern California Coast Northern Focus Area
    14.1 Description of Area 14.1.1 The Land The Northern California Coast - Northern Focus Area is composed of coastal Del Norte and Humboldt counties. The boundary extends eastward from the Pacific coast to the top of the first inland mountain range, and encompasses many of the region's existing and former wetlands. The focus area also includes a few important riparian and floodplain areas adjacent to major coastally draining rivers (Figure 13). In this northernmost California County, the coastline tends to be composed of rocky cliffs and high bluffs which rise steeply into the coastal mountain ranges with their deeply cut 14.0 canyons. Two major rivers drain the interior mountain ranges and empty into the Pacific Ocean within the boundary of Del Norte County: the Smith River, which has its origins in north- eastern Del Norte County and southern Oregon, and the Klamath River with headwaters much farther to the NORTHERN north and east in south central Oregon. Humboldt County, to the south, includes portions of CALIFORNIA the California Coast Range and the southern Klamath Mountains. The most extensive coastal wetlands are associated with floodplains in the lower Eel River COAST─ Valley and the Humboldt Bay area. Other significant wetland habitats include Mad River Estuary, Little River Valley, Redwood Creek Estuary, Big Lagoon, NORTHERN Stone Lagoon, and Freshwater Lagoon. Major rivers and streams draining the mountain ranges of Humboldt County include the Eel River, Van Duzen FOCUS AREA River, Mad River, Trinity River, Klamath River, Mattole River, Bear River, and Redwood Creek. Like the Klamath River, the Trinity and Eel rivers have large drainage basins within the Coast Range and the Klamath Mountains.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA SUMMARY** Indian Gaming Regulatory Act Reversing the district court’s summary judgment, the panel held that the State of California did not violate the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act by failing to negotiate in good faith for a tribal-state gaming compact with Big Lagoon Rancheria. The panel held that a tribe must have jurisdiction over “Indian lands” in order to file suit to compel negotiations under IGRA. Specifically, the tribe must have jurisdiction over the Indian lands upon which the gaming activity is to be conducted. The panel held that although the State’s objection to the “Indian lands” requirement could be waived because it was not a matter of subject matter jurisdiction, the State preserved this issue for review. The panel held that the parcel at issue was not Indian lands, which include lands held in trust for a tribe, because under Carcieri v.
