Valerie Stallings, Councilmember ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The San Diego Regional Beach Sand Project Final Environmental Impact Report/Review Environmental Assessment was prepared by KEA Environmental for SANDAG and the U.S. Navy. The Shoreline Erosion Committee advises SANDAG on coastal issues, and has guided the development of the Regional Beach Sand Project. The Shoreline Erosion Committee membership is: Hon. Ann Kulchin, Chair, City of Carlsbad Hon. Chuck Marks, City of Coronado Hon. Crystal Crawford, City of Del Mar Hon. James Bond, City of Encinitas Hon. Dan Malcolm, City of Imperial Beach Hon. Colleen O’Hara, City of Oceanside Hon. Harry Mathis, City of San Diego Hon. Joe Kellejian, City of Solana Beach Hon. Pam Slater, County of San Diego Comm. Jess Van Deventer, San Diego Unified Port District Dan Muslin, U.S. Navy The following staff of the San Diego Association of Governments participated in the environmental document process: Rob Rundle, Senior Planner, Project Manager Steve Sachs, Senior Planner Greg Smith, Intern The environmental document was prepared by: KEA Environmental MEC Analytical Systems Moffatt and Nichol Engineers GeoArch Marine Archaeology Consultants FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT (FEIR)/ ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (EA) FOR THE REGIONAL BEACH SAND PROJECT SAN DIEGO REGION, CALIFORNIA Lead Agency for the EIR: San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) Lead Agency for the EA: Department of the Navy Title of Proposed Action: Regional Beach Sand Project Affected Jurisdictions: Cities of Oceanside, Carlsbad, Encinitas, Solana Beach, Del Mar, San Diego, and Imperial Beach, all located in the State of California Designation: Final EIR/EA Submitted Pursuant to Public Resources Code 21000 et seq., 14 California Code Regulations 15000 et seq., and 42 U.S.C. 4332(2)(C) State Clearinghouse #: 1999041104 ABSTRACT This joint EIR/EA has been prepared in accordance with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) statutes and guidelines to dredge and place approximately 2 million cubic yards (cy) of sand on a maximum of 13 receiver sites in the San Diego region. The local CEQA project evaluated in this EIR/EA is the proposed dredging and replenishment of up to 13 receiver sites with beach-quality sand. The NEPA federal action is necessary because a majority of the project’s funding derives from the federal government, as appropriated by Congress in fiscal year 1998 Supplemental Appropriations and Recission Act. The EIR/EA evaluates two alternatives. Alternative 1 would involve replenishment of 12 receiver sites using approximately 2 million cy of dredged sediment from six borrow sites. There would be two possible construction variations: (a) would occur on a 24-hour, 7-day per week schedule and (b) would occur with restrictions on construction times and days consistent with local noise ordinances, where applicable. Alternative 2 would involve replenishment of nine receiver sites using approximately 2 million cy of dredged sediment from six borrow sites (one of the receiver sites proposed under Alternative 2 is not proposed under Alternative 1). There would also be two possible construction variations as described for Alternative 1. Also evaluated is the No Action Alternative, in which no beach replenishment or dredging activities would be implemented. This EIR/EA analyzes potential environmental impacts relating to geology and soils, coastal wetlands, water resources, biological resources, cultural resources, land and water use, aesthetics, socioeconomics, public health and safety, structures and utilities, traffic, air quality, and noise. Although no long-term significant impacts are expected, a post-construction monitoring plan would be implemented to verify no significant impacts to marine biological resources, lagoons, and underwater archaeological resources.

  • 4.0 Potential Coastal Receiver Areas
    4.0 POTENTIAL COASTAL RECEIVER AREAS The San Diego shoreline, including the beaches, bluffs, bays, and estuaries, is a significant environmental and recreational resource. It is an integral component of the area’s ecosystem and is interconnected with the nearshore ocean environment, coastal lagoons, wetland habitats, and upstream watersheds. The beaches are also a valuable economic resource and key part of the region’s positive image and overall quality of life. The shoreline consists primarily of narrow beaches backed by steep sea cliffs. In present times, the coastline is erosional except for localized and short-lived accretion due to historic nourishment activities. The beaches and cliffs have been eroding for thousands of years caused by ocean waves and rising sea levels which continue to aggravate this erosion. Episodic and site- specific coastal retreat, such as bluff collapse, is inevitable, although some coastal areas have remained stable for many years. In recent times, this erosion has been accelerated by urban development. The natural supply of sand to the region’s beaches has been significantly diminished by flood control structures, dams, siltation basins, removal of sand and gravel through mining operations, harbor construction, increased wave energy since the late 1970s, and the creation of impervious surfaces associated with urbanization and development. With more development, the region’s beaches will continue to lose more sand and suffer increased erosion, thereby reducing, and possibly eliminating their physical, resource and economic benefits. The State of the Coast Report, San Diego Region (USACE 1991) evaluated the natural and man- made coastal processes within the region. This document stated that during the next 50 years, the San Diego region “…is on a collision course.

Of the 1115 days posted for the year, there were 493 water quality closure and advisory days posted between April 1 and October 31, 2003. This report will present the causes of water quality contact advisories and closures, and the days posted for those events, for the entire county and by coastal jurisdiction. Except for closure events by themselves, comparisons to previous years will use the 493 water quality closure and advisory days posted between April 1 and October 31.

Strategic Plan (SP) reference provided where applicable: LCP Program Status – North Central District (SP Goal 4) LCP Program The North Central Coast district stretches from the north end of Sonoma County at the Gualala River to the San Mateo/Santa Cruz County border near Año Nuevo State Reserve in the south, approximately 258 miles of coastline. It encompasses three offshore National Marine Sanctuaries (Gulf of Farallones, Cordell Bank, and Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuaries). The district has four coastal counties (Sonoma, Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo) and four incorporated cities (San Francisco, Daly City, Pacifica, and Half Moon Bay), each with certified LCPs. There are also two major harbors (at Pillar Point in San Mateo County and Bodega Bay in Sonoma County), two public entities with Public Works Plans (the San Mateo County Resource Conservation District and the Montara Water and Sanitary District), and one with a coastal long range development plan (University of California’s Bodega Marine facility). The North Central coastal zone is diverse, with rugged Sonoma and Marin County coastlines to the north giving way at the Golden Gate Bridge to more urban areas of San Francisco, Daly City, and Pacifica, and even through to Half Moon Bay, then transitioning to more rural landscapes all the way to the Santa Cruz County border and beyond.
