6)CURRENT BUSINESS
New Dock Proposed at 2223 Bayside Drive1.
The applicant at 2223 Bayside Drive is proposing to build a brand new dock system which
would be the first dock ever built at this property. Council Policy H-1 requires a special
permit be approved by the Harbor Commission for dock projects in this area of the harbor.
Recommendation:
1. Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant
to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable
indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project
as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title
14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the
environment, directly or indirectly.
2. Review the proposed dock project and approve.

Item 6.2 - Harbor Operations Update - HC Staff Report
March 14, 2018

Harbor Commission Meeting
Central Avenue Public Pier - Vessel Sizes and State Grant Funding3.
The Central Avenue public pier and plaza project is complete and has been in use since
December 2017. However, as part of the last step in receiving the state’s grant funding for
this project, the state is requiring that a designated portion of the float be specifically
reserved to vessels over 26 feet long, therefore limiting access to the intended vessel size
class along the outside face of the dock. Staff is looking for direction from the Harbor
Commission as to whether the requirements of the grant are worth pursuing or not.
Recommendation:
1. Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant
to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable
indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project
as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title
14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the
environment, directly or indirectly.
2. Provide direction to staff as to the vessel size limits for the Central Avenue public dock.

6) CURRENT BUSINESS
Chair Kenney announced that staff has removed Items 6.1, 6.3, and 6.6 from the agenda.
1. New Dock Proposed at 2223 Bayside Drive (Removed from agenda.)
2. City Harbormaster Report on Harbor Operations
City Harbormaster Dennis Durgan will provide an update on Harbor Operations including a presentation by the City's Information Technology (IT) Division detailing their newly created
mooring management software. Recommendation: 1) Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to
Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project
as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations,
2
Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
2) Receive and file.
Harbormaster Durgan reported that staff has been very busy removing rubbish and debris from the Harbor. Code Enforcement Officer Matt Cosylion has issued approximately 130 notices of violation. The
City and the Orange County Sheriff's Department are holding a boat auction on Friday, February 16, 2018 at 9:00 A.M. Staff is beta testing three iPads and new mounts on their vessels. Staff continues working
on software to collect statistics; developing policies and procedures; and handling complaints regarding unkempt boats and impounds stored in the Harbor. Five transfers were completed in January and two
are pending completion.
In response to Commissioners' inquiries, Harbormaster Durgan explained the Coast Guard's regulations for stand-up paddleboarders' use of personal flotation devices. Staff has not issued any citations but
attempts to educate the public. Debris is probably entering the Harbor because upstream catch basins are filled to capacity and overflow during rain events. If the boom were extended during a rain event, it
might catch more debris. Public Works Director Webb added that the City will be applying for OCTA grants to upgrade the boom in order to collect more debris. The Municipal Operations Department cleans
the boom as necessary. Staff is working with upstream cities to install booms upstream to catch more debris before it enters the Harbor.
Senior IT Analyst Avery Maglinti reported that the software used for Marina Park was not sufficiently
flexible to incorporate mooring data; therefore, staff searched for appropriate software and determined that developing software in-house would be best. Staff facilitated the use of the existing software when
the City gained control of the Harbor in July 2017. In December 2017, the IT division delivered a basic application for mooring management. In April 2018, a reservation system will be available for use. The
final component will be a portal that allows permittees to provide and manage individual mooring information. The application will use permittee and location information to generate notices and invoices.
The permittee portal should be tentatively available in August 2018.
In reply to Commissioners' questions, Senior IT Analyst Maglinti indicated the new application was developed with the intent to integrate with City software, and is not likely to be used by other commercial
or public agency operations. Staff will utilize the application to generate notices for permittees to update information or provide current documentation.
3. Mooring Revocation: J-211 (Removed from agenda.)
4. Turning Basin Anchorage – Proposal for Permanent Year-Round Status Recommendation: 1) Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to
Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project
as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the
environment, directly or indirectly. 2) Review the proposal to designate the anchorage area in the Turning Basin as permanent
year-round, and make recommendations for staff to forward to the City Council for consideration.
Harbor Resources Manager Miller reported notices were sent to about 400 residents near the Turning
Basin Anchorage. A few residents have expressed concern about a year-round anchorage. Staff toured the west anchorage with Coast Guard staff who indicated they would need to scrutinize a year-round
anchorage. Coast Guard staff shared information about applying for either a seasonal or a year-round anchorage.
In answer to Commissioners' queries, Harbor Resources Manager Miller advised that one or two minor
issues have been resolved. Harbormaster Durgan indicated staff received one complaint about a raft-up
3
over the New Year's weekend. Harbor Resources Manager Miller estimated approximately ten boats of varying sizes could utilize the anchorage at one time. Chair Kenney recalled that Lieutenant Alsobrook's
reports did not relate any significant issues or complaints with the west anchorage.
Commissioner Beer stated that usage of the anchorage appears to be sufficient for year-round status. Presumably, the west anchorage would relieve some pressure from the east anchorage and would
benefit staff in maintaining safety. The west anchorage provides close access to retail shops, restaurants, visitor sites, and the newly constructed Central Avenue Public Pier. No complaints of noise pollution or
bright lights from vessels in the west anchorage appear to have been made to staff. The Newport Aquatic Center and the commercial charter fleet operators have not reported issues with the west anchorage.
The Newport Aquatic Center Executive Director suggested that the Harbormaster perform a drive-by Friday evening or Saturday morning prior to a race to ensure vessels do not protrude into the finish line.
Initiatives are being discussed to allow the Harbormaster to enforce rules and regulations for the Harbor. Should the west anchorage be made permanent, he suggested removing the marker buoys and closing
the west anchorage during the holiday Boat Parade; prohibiting raft-ups, prohibiting bright lights and loud music after 9:00 p.m.; enforcing length-of-stay rules; at the Harbormaster's discretion, temporarily
relocating, adjusting, or removing buoy markers in the interest of public safety and based upon events and circumstances; and routinely inspecting for vessels that may be a distraction or obstruction to
sanctioned and scheduled racing events that occur near the west anchorage and requesting relocation of such vessels. Historical data and observations demonstrate that the west anchorage supports the
mission of the Harbor Area Management Plan and will not negatively impact navigation, surrounding property owners, or existing Harbor uses.
Jim Mosher questioned whether the public comments referenced by Harbor Resources Manager Miller
were provided to Commissioners.
Chair Kenney advised that he received one email containing the Coles' comments, and that email was provided to all Commissioners, Mr. Miller, and Mr. Durgan. Harbor Resources Manager Miller reported he
spoke with a resident regarding permanent moorings versus an anchorage. Chair Kenney and Commissioner Blank elaborated on the Coles' comments.
Commissioner Beer moved to make the west anchorage permanent and to approve his
recommendations. Commissioner Blank seconded the motion. The motion carried by the following roll call vote:
Ayes: Chair Kenney, Commissioner Girling, Commissioner Cunningham, Commissioner Beer, Commissioner Blank, Commissioner Drayton
Absent: Commissioner McIntosh
5. Harbor Commission Objectives for Calendar Year 2018: Formation of Ad Hoc Committees The Harbor Commission will form ad hoc committees for each of their Functional Areas within the
2018 Harbor Commission Objectives. Recommendation: 1) Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to
Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project
as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the
environment, directly or indirectly. 2) Form ad hoc committees for each of the Functional Areas within the Harbor Commission
Objectives.
Chair Kenney announced that the City Council approved the Harbor Commission's Objectives for 2018. He suggested each Commissioner who was responsible for a Functional Area become chair of the ad hoc
committee for the Functional Area.
4
In reply to Commissioner Blank's question, Chair Kenney reported the City Council discussed the creation of a local port plan and added it to Functional Area 5.
Commissioners proposed the following membership for ad hoc committees:
Functional Area 1: Chair Cunningham, Commissioner Drayton, supported by Miller
Functional Area 2: Chair Drayton, Commissioner Beer, supported by Durgan and Jacobs Functional Area 3: Chair Beer, Commissioner Drayton, supported by Durgan and Jacobs
Functional Area 4: Chair McIntosh, Commissioner Kenney, Commissioner Blank, supported by Miller Functional Area 5: Chair Girling, Commissioner Kenney, supported by Miller
Functional Area 6: Chair Blank, Commissioner Cunningham, supported by Jacobs
Commissioner Drayton moved to establish an ad hoc committee for each Functional Area of the 2018 Objectives and to name Commissioners to each committee as noted above. Commissioner Girling
seconded the motion.
In response to Deputy City Attorney Ann Ewing's inquiries, Chair Kenney explained that the ad hoc committees will pursue the tasks listed for each 2018 Objective in the order listed and provide
recommendations to the Commission.
The motion carried by the following roll call vote: Ayes: Chair Kenney, Commissioner Girling, Commissioner Cunningham, Commissioner Beer,
Commissioner Blank, Commissioner Drayton Absent: Commissioner McIntosh
6. Mooring Lengths within the Offshore and Onshore Fields – Review of Current Practice (Removed from agenda.)
7. Derelict Vessel Definition: Ad Hoc Committee Recommendation At the November 2017 meeting, the Harbor Commission directed the derelict vessel ad hoc
committee to return to the Commission with an updated definition of a derelict vessel. The ad hoc committee does not recommend any changes to the definition at this time. Therefore, the ad hoc
committee's initial responsibilities are complete and the committee consisting of Commissioners Cunningham and Drayton should be disbanded.
Recommendation:
1) Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable
indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations,
Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
2) Receive and file the ad hoc committee's recommendation of not changing the current definition of a derelict vessel.
3) Disband the derelict vessel ad hoc committee.
Harbor Resources Manager Miller reported the ad hoc committee determined that revising the City's derelict vessel definition is not necessary at this time.
At Commissioner Blank's request, Harbor Resources Manager Miller summarized the definition of derelict
vessel.
In answer to Commissioner Drayton's question, Harbormaster Durgan advised that the current definition is sufficient for enforcement purposes.
Commissioner Beer moved to disband the derelict vessel ad hoc committee. Commissioner Girling
seconded the motion. The motion carried by the following roll call vote:
5
Ayes: Chair Kenney, Commissioner Girling, Commissioner Cunningham, Commissioner Beer, Commissioner Blank, Commissioner Drayton
Absent: Commissioner McIntosh
8. Stand Up Paddleboard Ad Hoc Committee: Disband Because the stand up paddleboard ad hoc committee fulfilled their original responsibilities in late
2017, the ad hoc committee consisting of Commissioners Kenney, Blank and Girling should be disbanded.
Recommendation:
1) Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable
indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations,
Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
2) Disband the stand up paddleboard ad hoc committee.
In response to Chair Kenney's inquiry, Harbor Resources Manager Miller advised that the Commission's recommendations could be presented to the Council as early as March.
Commissioner Girling moved to disband the stand-up paddleboard ad hoc committee. Commissioner
Beer seconded the motion. The motion carried by the following roll call vote: Ayes: Chair Kenney, Commissioner Girling, Commissioner Cunningham, Commissioner Beer,
Commissioner Blank, Commissioner Drayton Absent: Commissioner McIntosh
9. Pumpouts in Newport Harbor: Review
Staff will present a brief review of the Harbor's pumpout facilities, particularly the five stations owned and maintained by the City.
Recommendation:
1) Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable
indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations,
Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
2) Receive and file.
Harbor Resources Manager Miller reported that the City owns five pumpout stations in four locations. The Washington Street station is lightly used. The Fernando Street and Balboa Yacht Basin locations are well
used. The most used location is 15th Street, where there are two stations. Each station has placards showing the locations of other public pumpout stations and the number to call for repairs. Stations are
inspected on Mondays and Fridays. The pumpout stations require almost daily repairs.
In reply to Chair Kenney's query, Harbormaster Durgan advised that his staff tests pumpouts almost daily during the summer months.
7) COMMISSIONER ANNOUNCEMENTS (NON-DISCUSSION ITEMS)
None
8) QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WITH HARBOR RESOURCES MANAGER ON HARBOR RELATED ISSUES
6
Harbor Resources Manager Miller reported staff met with Coastal Commission staff regarding the Regional General Permit and administrative improvements in an effort to foster communications between
the two agencies. Staff is preparing for the Lower Bay dredging project. Staff and members of Council will travel to Washington, DC, to lobby for statewide dredging and to discuss Newport Harbor. Collection
of sediment samples in the Lower Bay is complete; analysis is underway and should be finalized in the next two months. Analysis of RGP samples is almost complete, and hopefully approval of the RGP can
be obtained in April.
In reply to Chair Kenney's question, Harbor Resources Manager Miller indicated the Lower Bay was last tested in 2009 or 2010.

March 14, 2018
Agenda Item No. _1_
TO: HARBOR COMMISSION
FROM: Chris Miller, Harbor Manager - 949-644-3043, cmiller@newportbeachca.gov
TITLE: New Dock Proposed at 2223 Bayside Drive ______________________________________________________________________
ABSTRACT:
The applicant at 2223 Bayside Drive is proposing to build a brand new dock system which would
be the first dock ever built at this property. Council Policy H-1 requires a special permit be
approved by the Harbor Commission for dock projects in this area of the harbor.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to
Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable
indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations,
Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
2. Review the proposed dock project and approve.
FUNDING REQUIREMENTS:
There is no fiscal impact related to this item.
DISCUSSION:
The applicant at 2223 Bayside Drive lives in the Carnation Cove area slightly east of the Harbor
Patrol’s facility and within Bulkhead Station Numbers 104 to 106. There has never been a dock system as this location before, and the applicant, Ms. Manzo, is proposing to build a new dock as
described on the attached proposal. The proposed dock is not out of the ordinary, and extends
into the water within the same range as the neighbors’ docks. (The reason this dock and others extend further out into the water is due to the rock outcroppings in this area and the shallow
depths.) The applicant is not asking for a variance on the dimensions nor location of the proposed dock system. There is an abundance of eelgrass in the area, and the applicant will address this issue with the regulatory agencies during the entitlement process.
In this part of the harbor, the Bulkhead and Pierhead Lines are farther out in the water as depicted on the aerial photos. Therefore, Council Policy H-1, Section T states that between U.S. Bulkhead
New Dock Proposed at 2223 Bayside Drive March 14, 2018
Page 2
Station Numbers 104 to 106, piers shall be subject to special permits approved by the Harbor Commission.
Outreach letters were sent to neighbors within 300’ of the property, and as of the agenda publication date, only one inquiry was received with a general question about eelgrass within the
dock footprint.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff recommends the Harbor Commission find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in
a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code
of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to
the environment, directly or indirectly.
NOTICING:
The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of the
meeting at which the Harbor Commission considers the item).

Agenda Item No. _3_
TO: HARBOR COMMISSION
FROM: Chris Miller, Harbor Manager – 949-644-3043, cmiller@newportbeachca.gov
TITLE: Central Avenue Public Pier – Vessel Sizes and State Grant Funding ______________________________________________________________________
ABSTRACT:
The Central Avenue public pier and plaza project is complete and has been in use since
December 2017. However, as part of the last step in receiving the state’s grant funding for this project, the state is requiring that a designated portion of the float be specifically reserved to
vessels over 26 feet long, therefore limiting access to the intended vessel size class along the
outside face of the dock. Staff is looking for direction from the Harbor Commission as to whether the requirements of the grant are worth pursuing or not.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Find this action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to
Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable
indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations,
Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
2. Provide direction to staff as to the vessel size limits for the Central Avenue public dock.
FUNDING REQUIREMENTS:
There is no fiscal impact related to this item.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff recommends the Harbor Commission find this action exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in
