RECOMMENDATION: 1. Introduce Ordinance No. 2008 - amending Title 17 of the NBMC to completely reorganize the Title with minor revisions throughout; 2. Introduce Ordinance No. 2008- that relocates Section 17.28.045 (Vehicle Restrictions on Public Piers and Plazas) to Section 11.08.090; 3. Introduce Ordinance No. 2008 - that relocates Section 17.28.060 (Skateboards) to Section 12.57.22; 4. Pass the three Ordinances to 2"' reading, set for January 22, 2008. 5. Amend Council Policy H -1 (Harbor Permit Policy) to relocate most passages into the Title 17; and 6. Amend the Waterfront Project Guidelines and Standards — Harbor Design Criteria: Commercial and Residential Facilities to update to current construction standards and designs. DISCUSSION: Title 17 and Council Policv H -1 Title 17 and Council Policy H -1 are in need of reorganization due to several factors. An essential factor in this reorganization effort is to assist the Planning Department in development of the City's Local Coastal Program (LCP) Implementation Plan which is a document consisting of zoning ordinances, zoning district maps and other legal instruments necessary to implement the City's Coastal Land Use Plan. Title 17, Council Policy H -1 and Design Criteria January 8, 2008 Page 2 In preparing the Implementation Plan, Planning found it necessary to incorporate some of the LCP Policies into Title 17 of the Municipal Code. However, in order to effectively position these Policies into the Code, staff decided it would be best to completely reorganize Title 17 into a logical format that more closely follows the zoning code's organizational style. Although the Implementation Plan has been progress, it is helpful to complete the Title Resources in their management of the harbor. the City Council's priority of aligning the City Plan. through many revisions and is still a work in 17 reorganization process now to aid Harbor In addition, this reorganization is consistent with codes, regulations and policies to the General At the same time, the City Attorney has advised Harbor Resources to incorporate most of Council Policy H -1 into Title 17 in an effort to codify critical portions of the document to make these policies enforceable. The overall result of this effort has been to make minor revisions and to update the terms, definitions and outdated sections to eliminate or reduce ambiguity as well as to add clarity. As a result, Council Policy H -1 is significantly reduced in size — only a singular section addressing the distance piers and floats may extend into the channel, remains. Harbor Design Criteria Independent of the above mentioned reorganization effort, Harbor Resources had been updating our Harbor Design Criteria to reflect current standards and codes for construction. This effort was necessary since Harbor Resources and the Building Department have been referencing documents and drawings from 1973 during their plan check process. In 2003, City Council approved a contract with URS Cash and Associates to completely overhaul and rewrite the standards, figures and drawings with significant input from the Building Department. On March 9, 2005, the Harbor Commission reviewed the new Design Criteria and recommended it be forwarded to the Council for approval. Although the final version of the Design Criteria has been complete for a while, staff felt it would be more effective to present this document with the Title 17 and H -1 revisions to the Council at the same time since everything is closely interrelated. Combined, these documents provide Harbor Resources with the tools necessary to effectively manage the activities in the harbor. All changes to these documents are summarized on the attached Table. COMMITTEE REVIEW. The Harbor Commission reviewed the documents at its September 13, 2006 meeting and recommended it be approved by the Council. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The City Council's approval of this item is categorically exempt from CEQA under the General Rule Exemption (Section 15061 of the CEQA Guidelines.

A. A permit for a pier, dock or float shall not be issued until the rough plumbing for the dwelling unit or the required sanitation facilities serving such pier, dock or float has been installed and approved by the City Building Department. The use of a pier, dock or float will not be allowed until any required sanitation facilities are completed and in operation. B. All public or private commercially operated shore - connected boat marinas shall have a minimum of two restroom facilities, one for women and one for men, for each 20 berthing spaces available in the marina. The walking distance from the farthest boat berth to the restroom facility should be minimized to the extent possible, and shall not exceed a maximum of 1,000 feet in overall walking distance. C. Sewage Pumping Facilities. Permission may be granted to install and operate sewage pumping facilities for boats moored to shore - connected structures providing such installations are first approved by the Harbor Resources Division and the Building Department. 17.45.020 Required Pumpout Facilities. A. Findings and Purpose. The City Council finds and declares as follows: On July 14, 1986, the City Council created the Coastal Bay Water Quality Citizens Advisory Committee in response to growing concerns about the deterioration of the quality of water in Newport Bay. The Committee was specifically empowered to develop information, and make recommendations, on proposed measures to improve water quality of the bay. 2. The Coastal Bay Water Quality Citizens Advisory Committee has, since its inception, conducted monthly meetings and received testimony from representatives of the Regional Water Quality Control Board, the Orange County Health Department, the Harbor Master, businesses that utilize Newport Bay, and experts in the field of water quality. 76 C� 3. The Committee has determined, based upon testimony presented to it, that there are valid reasons for concern about contamination of bay waters caused by the discharge of human waste from vessels using the harbor. 4. The United States Environmental Protection Agency has determined that recreational swimmers exposed to waters contaminated by human waste are at a higher risk of developing gastrointestinal diseases. 5. The failure to take steps to control the discharge of human waste into the bay could result in a quarantine for water contact sports, a prohibition against gathering of shellfish from the waters of Newport Harbor and may lead to the onset and spread of disease in humans. 6. The discharge of human waste into the waters of Newport Bay, if allowed to continue, could jeopardize the economic viability of businesses which utilize, or are located on Newport Bay, and severely restrict recreational use of the bay. The number of public pumpout facilities in Newport Harbor to serve the number of vessels using the harbor and the location of those facilities are not convenient to a large number of vessels that require pumpout of holding tanks. Substantial quantities of human waste have been discharged directly into the bay because of the lack of adequate pumpout facilities. 8. The heaviest commercial users of the bay, and those which have the greatest need for adequate pumpout facilities, are sailing clubs, marine activity permittees, and certified charter operations that load and unload passengers at the docks of harbor permittees located in commercial zones. 9. The installation and use of pumpout facilities by the heaviest commercial users of Newport Bay will help insure that bacteria, coliform and human pathogen levels remain below those which would cause the adverse impacts described in this section. B. Pumpout Facility Required. All sailing clubs, marinas with a capacity of fifty (50) or more vessels and marine activity permittees engaged in providing vessels for lease or charter shall install a vessel waste pumpout system solely for the use of vessels associated with that activity. The pumpout facility shall be installed on dock space under the control of the club or permittee with convenient access to all vessels, owned, leased or chartered by the club or permittee. The pumpout facility shall have a capacity commensurate 17 65 with the capacity of the holding tanks of the vessel or vessels of the club or permittee. 2. All pumpout facilities required by this chapter shall be installed pursuant to permit issued by the Harbor Resources Manager. Application for permit shall be made on forms prepared, and furnished, by the Harbor Resources Manager. No fee shall be charged for the issuance of the pumpout facility permit or any other permit required prior to installation. 3. The application for permit shall be accompanied by appropriate plans and specifications setting forth in detail the work to be done. 4. The application, plans and specifications required by this chapter shall be reviewed by the Harbor Resources Manager to determine if the proposed work meets all requirements of this chapter and other provisions of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. The Harbor Resources Manager shall issue the permit if the proposed pumpout station complies with all applicable ordinances, rules and regulations. A separate permit will be required from the Building Director prior to installation of the pumpout facility. C. Maintenance. Permittee shall maintain the pumpout facility in good condition and repair at all times. 17.45.030 Waste And Refuse; Small Vessel Moorage. A. Discharge of Excreta. No person shall discharge, permit or allow any other person on a vessel under his control or command to discharge any human or animal excreta from any head, toilet or similar facility on a vessel into the waters of Newport Bay. B. Vessel Holding Tank Requirements. Vessel Wastes. No person shall own or operate a vessel equipped with any head (toilet) or receptacle for human body wastes in the waters of Newport Bay unless it complies with all applicable federal, state, county and city standards. 2. Marina Pumpout Facilities. The owner and operator of every commercial marina with a capacity of fifty (50) or more vessels shall provide a permanent holding tank pumpout facility or equivalent services which are operable and available for use at all times and which are capable of servicing all vessels berthed, docked, or moored at the marina. C. Refuse in Navigable Waters. No person shall throw, discharge, deposit or leave or cause, suffer or permit to be thrown, discharged, deposited or left, either from 1$ K the shore or from any pier or vessel or from any factory or elsewhere, any refuse matter of any description, into the navigable waters of Newport Harbor or on the shore of Newport Harbor or any navigable water within the boundaries of the City where the same may be washed into Newport Harbor or such navigable water, either by tides, or by floods or otherwise. D. Refuse and Vessels on Shoreline. No person shall place or allow vessels, boats, materials, garbage, refuse, timber or waste matter of any description to remain on or upon the shorelines of the Pacific Ocean or on the shorelines of Newport Harbor within the City. The Harbor Resources Manager may remove the same with or without notice, at his option, and the cost thereof may be recovered from any person owning the same, or placing or causing it to be placed on the shoreline, in a civil action. E. Refuse — Marinas and Piers. Any owner or operator of a marina or any owner or permit holder who maintains a pier, shall keep the area in and around such marina or pier located on the shorelines of Newport Harbor within the City reasonably free and clear from beached or floating refuse, debris or litter at all times. F. Discharge of Flammable Materials. No person shall pump or discharge from any vessel or tank into the waters of Newport Harbor, oil, spirits, or any flammable liquid, or deposit any rubbish, refuse matter or articles of any similarly offensive character therein or upon any pier or street leading to such facility. G. Dead Animals. No person shall throw, place or leave any dead animal or putrefying matter in the waters of Newport Harbor, or on or along the shore thereof or the shore of any tidewater within the City. H. Signs Concerning Sanitation Regulations. The owner or operator of any commercial boat docking facility or marina located on the waters of Newport Bay shall install and maintain at his expense in conspicuous locations on the premises thereof standard signs to inform the public of the regulations prohibiting the discharge of toilets on any vessel into the waters of Newport Bay and other provisions of this title which relate to harbor sanitation. Uniform standards and specifications for the design and general locations of such signs shall be prescribed by the Harbor Commission. -l� 67 Chapter 17.50 HARBOR DEVELOPMENT PERMITS Sections: 17.50.010 Permits Required For Harbor Structures. 17.50.020 Application For Harbor Development Permits. 17.50.030 Processing of Application. 17.50.040 Rendering of Decision. 17.50.050 Permit Conditions. 17.50.060 Bond Requirements. 17.50.070 Transfer of Permit. 17.50.080 Expiration, Extension, Violation and Revocation. 17.50.090 Structure Without Permit Declared a Nuisance; Abatement. 17.50.100 Securing of Structures. 17.50.110 Appeal. 17.50.010 Permits Required For Harbor Structures.

Steel products in the marine environment require special non -toxic coating protection and cathodic protection, in order to provide extended life spans. (3) Seawalls shall have a top elevation of not less than 9.0 MLLW. Seawall elevations of 10.0 MLLW or more, depending on 26 X53 location within the bay and potential for wave or wake over- topping, are recommended. (4) The distance between seawalls and all floating dock components shall be a minimum of one foot horizontal distance. (5) Seawalls shall be designed to resist all applicable vertical and horizontal loads. (6) A minimum safety factor of 1.5 shall apply to gravity loads, and a minimum safety factor of 1.0 shall apply to seismic loading cases for the stability of seawalls. (7) Decking shall butt to the seawall cap, or cantilever over the top of the seawall, if approved. (8) Wing Walls: Wing walls are retaining walls that project landward and are perpendicular to the seawall. Wing walls may be necessary to isolate the seawall protection system of one property to the adjacent property. Special care must be taken to assure that the construction of a seawall for the subject property does not adversely impact the seawalls of the adjoining properties, either during construction or over the life of the structures. (9) Seawall design requires a soils report from a California- licensed geotechnical consultant experienced with the design of waterfront structures. Any sloping surface on the water or landside of the seawall must be accounted for in the calculations for the seawall. (10) All concrete sheets used for seawall construction shall be designed as pre-cast, pre- stressed concrete elements. Sheet design shall provide for symmetrical distribution and sizing of strands, to prevent curvature of the wall. See "Pilings & Anchorage" for concrete and reinforcing requirements. (11) All seawalls or seawall alterations shall be designed by a California - licensed Civil or Structural Engineer. 7. DREDGING a. All projects that require dredging must follow current local, State and Federal permitting requirements. b. For maintenance dredging projects involving small quantities, the City of Newport Beach, in conjunction with the Army Corps of Engineers 27 (ACOE), has a program allowing for a simplified permitting process, as long as the amount of dredging and disposal quantities are small and meet quality requirements. The applicant is encouraged to inquire about this simplified process with the Harbor Resources Division, to verify qualifications. 8. UTILITIES a. All utility lines in a floating dock system shall maintain clearances as outlined in "Layout & Design Guidelines for Marina Berthing Facilities ". b. Electrical Power and Lighting: (1) All electrical design shall be in accordance with the latest edition of the National Electric Code (NEC) Article 555 — "Marinas and Boatyards ", California State Building Standards "Article E555 Title 24, and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) code, NFPA 303 and NFPA 70.

(3) An electric service connection shall be located at a minimum of every other slip. Electrical receptacles shall be waterproof and approved for marine waterfront exposure. The following are suggested minimum receptacle requirements based on boat size: one (1) 120v, 30 amp outlet at each boat slip under 35ft, two (2) 120v, 30 amp outlets at each boat slip between the sizes of 36 to 45ft, one (1) 120v, 30amp and one (1) 120v, 50 amp receptacle at each boat slip between 46 to 55ft, and two (2) 120v, 50 amp receptacles for boats between 56 to 65ft. For vessels larger than 65ft, special power requirements may be required and the applicant should consult the vessel manufacturer. Some large vessels may require 220v or 480v, 100amp services. Sub metering of each boat slip is recommended and has proven to reduce power usage in marinas where meters have been installed. (4) Lighting shall be provided on all floating structures for pedestrian safety. All lighting shall be so designed as to provide sufficient light for safe pedestrian usage. All lighting on landside structures and buildings shall be designed to provide a minimum reflection/glare on the adjacent water areas with consideration for lighting reductions in evening hours. 28 155 (5) Electrical cables and conduits shall be fastened securely to the dock system and gangways such that the system is protected from damage by boats. All electrical equipment shall be located above the harbor water level per NEC requirements at all times. If distribution cabling will be subject to water contact, cabling shall be rated for submersible use. All strapping supports for conduit shall be stainless steel. All electrical conduit and cables must be concealed within the dock system. (6) Transformers and panels located on the docks shall meet all requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC). Several maintenance receptacles should be placed throughout the marina system to allow dock maintenance crews to use small electric tools without using metered power dedicated to slip renters. (7) Commercial Facilities: (a) Commercial facilities shall provide minimum lighting levels for public safety along the path of travel from land to the berthed vessel. (b) Lighting fixtures with a capacity of 9 watts mounted at heights between 1.5 to 3 feet above the floating deck surface in dock boxes or on individual pedestals along the path of travel will generally meet this requirement. Fixtures should be located such that lighting levels on the walking surface are as uniform as possible. (c) In addition, pole- mounted lighting shall be provided to illuminate vertical access systems such a gangways, steps, and lifts, providing a higher level of illumination at vertical transitions in the path of travel. (d) Lighting systems shall be designed to provide light for the floating walking and access surfaces and not project light into neighboring properties and/or water space. Special lens and/or shields may be required to ensure that stray light is blocked and/or managed. (e) All lighting shall be controlled by photo cells and/or timers, to assure that their operation is automatic and energy conserving. 29 \S6 C. Plumbing (1) Plumbing systems shall be designed by a Civil or Mechanical Engineer, licensed by the State of California, and shall be in accordance with the latest National Mechanical Code, State Plumbing Code, and National Fire Protection Association Code. (2) One hose bib shall be provided for every two (2) boats, as a minimum. Hose bibs for every boat slip are recommended for boater convenience and the reduction of clutter on the docks. (3) Backflow preventers shall be provided for all water supply systems into the site. Pressure reducers or booster pumps may be required to meet pressure and flow requirements. (4) Refer to Section "Sewage Pump Out Facilities" for criteria for sewage system installations. (5) Supply water and sewage piping shall accommodate the full range of tidal movement, via the installation of flexible hoses and/or mechanical swivel pipe fittings. All materials shall be suited for the salt -water marine environment and be rated as "Food Grade" materials. d. Fire Protection: (1) General: (a) All fire protection systems for marinas, wharves and piers shall be in accordance with NFPA Chapters 14 and 303, latest edition, and the California Fire Code Appendix II- C, latest edition. See the attached Newport Beach Fire Department "Fire Protection for Marinas, Wharves, and Piers" for system requirements. (2) Code Requirements: (a) Retroactivity of code provisions: At the option of the Newport Beach Fire Department, the authority can make the conditions and provisions of applicable current codes retroactive, if deemed necessary for public safety. Otherwise, the provisions of applicable codes that existed or were approved for construction or installation prior to the effective date of the standard shall apply. 157 (3) Fire Department connections (FDC's), backflow preventers and pressure reducing assemblies or booster pumps if required, firehose cabinets, fire standpipes and portable fire extinguishers shall be provided on the docks, as required by Code. Meet City of Newport Beach Fire Department requirements for periodic hose testing and replacement. (4) Commercial Facilities: (a) All commercial dock installations shall be provided with a fire fighting system, approved by the City of Newport Beach Fire Department. If the City water pressure is not adequate to produce pressures necessary to meet special City and Code requirements, an auxiliary booster pump system may be required. (b) All new and existing marinas and boating facilities shall meet the requirements described in "Cases" as made part of this Design Criteria. The purpose of these requirements is to facilitate safe boating navigation, as well as provide fire - fighting capability. (5) Residential Facilities: (a) Fire protection systems for single - family residential docks are optional, although highly recommended. The residential owner should contact their insurance carrier for any policy requirements associated with providing a fire protection system. (b) Fire protection for multi - family or condominium residential docks, piers and floats are required to have a fire protection system meeting City and Code requirements. 9. ENVIRONMENTAL a. Commercial Facilities: (1) All commercial facilities shall prepare a Best Management Practices plan to document environmental practices to be applied to daily operations.
