Bay Front Dredging Status Karl, Thank you for your response. I think I have some answers to your concerns and might be able to clarify things. According to our records, it looks like #3,4,5 & 7 Harbor Island applied for a dredging permit back in January 2003. At that time, it was true that the overall grain size sample was below the 80% required for beach disposal. Subsequently, the resident at #3 re -applied by himself (because he didn't want to be held back by his neighbors) in July 2003 and completed a new grain size sample which registered at 99% sand. This is the application that I am referring to. Do you have this latest application? If not, we'd be happy to re -send to you. With respect to 403 N. Bay Front, it does not have any eelgrass within 15' from the jobsite. There might have been some confusion because Tom and I made the contractor re -submit his drawing to us when we discovered an inconsistency between their original drawing and the eelgrass survey that our department completed. We got that all straightened up and submitted the corrected drawings to the corresponding agencies. Please see the attached emails from Tom from earlier this summer describing these events. I hope this answers your concerns. We'd be happy to assist you or re -send the documents if you prefer. Please let us know how we can help. Thank you, Chris -----Original Message ----- From: Karl Schwing [mailto:kschwing@coastal.ca.gov] Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2003 2:51 PM To: 'Miller, Chris' Cc: Rossmiller, Tom Subject: RE: #3 Harbor Island & 403 N. Bay Front Dredging Status 11/19/2003 Message Page 2 of 2 Chris, My notes indicate that #3 Harbor Island raised an issue because the material to be dredged didn't meet beach disposal requirements (i.e. greater than 80% sand content)... nevertheless the proposal still included beach disposal. This one needs either a separate permit (because it doesn't meet the requirements of CDP 5-99-282), or the project needs to be modified to conform with the requirements of CDP 5-99-282. With respect to 403 N. Bay Front, my notes indicate that eeigrass is located in the project area and that additional mapping was necessary in order to assure that any impacts to eeigrass can be documented and mitigated. We haven't received any additional mapping or justification as to why such mapping isn't needed. Has Bob Hoffman at NMFS reviewed this project? Was he o.k. with the mapping that was undertaken? If not, was additional mapping done? We need some assurance that either the mapping already done is sufficient to detect impacts, or we need a more detailed map of the eeigrass beds that is of sufficient accuracy that a post -dredging survey will detect impacts. - Karl -----Original Message ----- From: Miller, Chris[mai Ito: CM il ler@city. newport-beach.ca. us] Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2003 1:49 PM To: Karl Schwing Cc: Rossmiller, Tom Subject: #3 Harbor Island & 403 N.
