SPECIAL CONDITIONS:

1. Eelgrass Survey(s).

A. Pre-Construction Eelgrass Survey. A valid pre-construction eelgrass (Zostera marina) survey shall be completed during the period of active growth of eelgrass (typically March through October). The pre-construction survey shall be completed prior to the beginning of construction and shall be valid until the next period of active growth. The survey shall be prepared in full compliance with the “California Eelgrass Mitigation Policy” dated October 2014 (except as modified by this special condition) adopted by the NMFS and shall be prepared in

7/25/2025 consultation with the CDFW. The applicant shall submit the eelgrass survey for the review and approval of the Executive Director within five (5) business days of completion of each eelgrass survey and in any event no later than fifteen (15) business days prior to commencement of any development. If the eelgrass survey identifies any eelgrass within the project area which would be impacted by the proposed project, the development shall require an amendment to this permit from the Coastal Commission or a new coastal development permit.

B. Post-Construction Eelgrass Survey If any eelgrass is identified in the project area or the 10 meter buffer area by the pre-construction survey required by Subsection A of this condition, within 30 days of completion of construction, or within the first 30 days of the next active growth period following completion of construction that occurs outside of the active growth period, the applicant shall survey the project site and the 10 meter buffer area to determine if any eelgrass was adversely impacted. The survey shall be prepared in full compliance with the CEMP adopted by the NMFS (except as modified by this special condition), and in consultation with the CDFW. If side-scan sonar methods are to be used, evidence of a valid permit from CSLC must also be provided prior to the commencement of each survey period. The applicant shall submit the postconstruction eelgrass survey for the review and approval of the Executive Director within thirty (30) days after completion of the survey. If any additional eelgrass has been adversely impacted beyond the area of impacted identified in the pre-construction eelgrass survey, the applicant shall replace the impacted eelgrass at a minimum final 1.38:1 ratio on-site (mitigation: impact), or at another location, in accordance with the CEMP. Any exceptions to the required 1.38:1 minimum final mitigation ratio found within the CEMP shall not apply. Based on past performance of eelgrass mitigation efforts, in order to achieve this minimum, the appropriate regional initial planting ratio provided in the CEMP should be used. Implementation of mitigation to ensure success in achieving the minimum final mitigation ratio (1.38:1) shall require an amendment to this permit or a new coastal development permit unless the Executive Director provides a written determination that no amendment or new permit is required.

2. Pre-Construction Caulerpa Sp. Survey. Not earlier than 90 days nor later than 30 days prior to commencement or re commencement of any development authorized under this Coastal Development Permit (the “project”), the applicant shall undertake a survey of the project areas, the dredging areas and deposition areas and a buffer area at least 10 meters beyond the project area to determine the presence of the invasive alga Caulerpa taxifolia. The survey shall include a visual examination of the substrate. If any portion of the project commences in a previously undisturbed area after the last valid Caulerpa taxifolia survey expires, a new survey is required prior to commencement of work in that area.

The survey protocol shall be prepared in consultation with the Regional Water Quality Control Board, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the National Marine Fisheries Service. Within five (5) business days of completion of the survey, the applicant shall submit the survey:

1) for the review and approval by the Executive Director; and

2) to the Surveillance Subcommittee of the Southern California Caulerpa Action Team (SCCAT).

If Caulerpa taxifolia is found within the project or buffer areas, the applicant shall not proceed with the project until 1) the applicant provides evidence to the Executive Director that all Caulerpa taxifolia discovered within the project and buffer area has been eliminated in a manner that complies with all applicable governmental approval requirements, including but not limited to those of the California Coastal Act, or 2) the applicant has revised the project to avoid any contact with Caulerpa taxifolia. No revisions to the project shall occur without a Coastal Commission approved amendment to this coastal development permit unless the Executive Director determines that no amendment is legally required.

3. Beach Profile Monitoring Report. The permittee shall submit for the review and approval by the Executive Director a Beach Profile Monitoring Report in conformance with the Beach Profile Monitoring Plan submitted on March 26, 2025, and shall include at a minimum the following:

A. Pre-nourishment survey conducted between 180 and 30 days prior to nourishment; and

B. Post-nourishment survey conducted within 30 days of completion of nourishment;

and

C. Post-nourishment survey conducted between 1 year and 1.5 years after completion of nourishment.

No revisions to the plan shall occur without a Coastal Commission approved amendment to this coastal development permit unless the Executive Director determines that no amendment is legally required.

4. Avian Monitoring & Avoidance Plan. PRIOR TO ISSUANCE OF THE COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT, the applicant shall submit to the Executive Director for review and written approval an Avian Monitoring and Avoidance Plan that provides for the following:

A. Sand placement activities that occur during western snowy plover breeding season (March 1 to August 31) and California least tern breeding season (April 1 to September 15) will take the following steps to mitigate impacts to these species. A designated avian biological monitor with stop-work authority will conduct pre- and during construction surveys as needed within the project area and within 500 feet of the work area to determine the location of any active special status avian roosting and nesting areas. If western snowy plovers or California least terns are observed during any survey, the following measures will be implemented:

i. If western snowy plovers or California least terns are observed exhibiting nesting behaviors (scraping, territorial displays or calls, false brooding, etc.)

during the breeding season, no project-related activities will occur within 500 feet of these areas until subsequent monitoring indicates that western snowy plovers or California least terns are no longer present.

ii. If an active western snowy plover or California least tern nest (nest containing eggs or an empty or partial nest with western snowy plovers or California least terns actively exhibiting breeding behaviors) occurs within 500 feet of the proposed construction area, the following measures will be implemented:

a. The biological monitor with stop-work authority will report the nest to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. After initial identification of the nest, the biological monitor will not approach within 50 feet of an active western snowy plover or California least tern nest. Nest monitoring will occur with binoculars. The biological monitor will use the distance to the project limits and local topography to determine if construction activities are likely to damage a nest or significantly disturb nesting activities.

Signage will be installed to deter people from entering any area with an active nest.

b. Where damage or disturbance of any western snowy plover or California least tern nest(s) is likely, the designated biological monitor will implement further measures to avoid the likelihood of nest destruction or disturbance, including: temporarily halting construction activities until the nest fails or until at least 10 days after the young fledge from the nest, with construction activities directed to other areas further than 350 feet from the active nest(s) or where activities will not disturb the active net(s), as directed by the biological monitor.

c. The biological monitor will monitor nest progress, construction activity, and protective fencing to minimize potential construction-related disturbance and will submit a weekly nest status report to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. A post-construction report will be submitted to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service summarizing the weekly nest status report and outcomes within 6 months of project completion.

B. No activities are allowed within 100 feet of active roost areas for the western snowy plover or California least tern unless measures are implemented to minimize the noise and disturbance to those adjacent birds until subsequent monitoring indicates that western snowy plover and California least tern are no longer present. If these conditions cannot be met, the following measures will be implemented:

i. The biological monitor with stop-work authority will report the roost site to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. After initial identification of the roost, the biological monitor will not approach within 50 feet of roosting western snowy plover or California least terns. Roost monitoring will occur with binoculars. The biological monitor will use the distance to the project limits and local topography to determine if construction activities are likely to damage a nest or significantly disturb nesting activities. Signage will be installed to deter people from entering any area with an active nest.

ii. Where damage or disturbance of any western snowy plover or California least tern roosting is likely, the biological monitor will implement further measures to avoid the likelihood of roost disturbance, including temporarily halting construction activities until the birds depart for the season, with construction activities directed to other areas that will not disturb the roost, as directed by the designated biological monitor.

iii. A biological monitor will monitor the roost and construction activity to minimize potential construction-related disturbance and will submit a weekly nest status report to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. A post-construction report will be submitted to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service summarizing the weekly nest status report and outcomes within 6 months of project completion.

C. All participants and contractors for the project will receive educational training concerning special status species within the project area. The program will be conducted during all project phases and will cover the potential presence of listed species; the requirements and boundaries of the project; the importance of complying with avoidance, minimization, and compensation measures; and problem reporting and resolution methods. The designated project biologist and/or other qualified project proponent shall conduct the training and provide a sign-in sheet for each training activity to ensure all participants and contractors are educated on the environmental conditions and associated constraints.

5. Construction Timing. To avoid adverse impacts on grunion (Leuresthes tenuis), California brown pelican (Pelicanus occidentalis) and the California least tern (Sterna antillarum brownie), no deposition of beach material shall take place on Peninsula Beach between February 15th to September 15th without a written statement from the Executive Director authorizing said development between those specified dates. To obtain such a written statement, the permittee must submit a declaration from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDF&W) to the Executive Director stating that implementing the development described in this condition on the specific dates proposed will not cause adverse impacts to any protected species or California grunion or their eggs. The declaration must contain an assessment of the spawning of the California grunion found in the area and a statement that the development activity on the specific dates proposed and in the specified locations will not interfere with the spawning of the California grunion.

6. Construction Staging Plans. PRIOR TO ISSUANCE OF THE COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT, the applicant shall submit, for the Executive Director’s review and approval, two full size sets of construction staging plans which indicate that the construction staging area(s) and construction corridor(s) will avoid impacts to beach areas or to sensitive habitat areas.

A. The plan shall demonstrate that:

i. Construction equipment maintenance activities shall not occur outside the staging area;

ii. Public parking areas are allowed to be used for staging or storage of equipment, but shall be the minimal sized area and shall minimize temporary impacts to public access;

iii. Sandy beach or habitat (vegetated) areas shall not be used as staging areas; and

iv. The staging area for construction of the project shall not obstruct vertical or lateral access to the beach, marina or other recreational facilities

B. The plan shall include, at a minimum, a site plan that depicts the following components:

i. limits of the staging area(s);

ii. construction corridor(s);

iii. construction site;

iv. location of construction fencing and temporary job trailers with respect to existing beaches.

The permittee shall undertake development in accordance with the approved plan.

Any proposed changes to the approved final plan shall be reported to the Executive Director. No changes to the approved final plans shall occur without a Commission amendment to this coastal development permit unless the Executive Director determines that no amendment is legally required.

7. Limit Impacts of Heavy Equipment on Beach. The Applicant shall follow the following best practices to the maximum extent feasible:

A. Avoid driving and turning vehicles on the high tide/wrack line. If crossing the wrack line is necessary, try to return using the same route so as to minimize impacts.

B. Avoid flushing roosting seabirds, gulls, and shorebirds with vehicles. Don't drive through roosting or foraging flocks and proceed very slowly in the vicinity of flocks of birds on the beach.

C. Avoid driving on dunes, hummocks, vegetation, and zones where seedlings are sprouting. Establish and use one path/road through vegetated zones of beaches and dunes as much as possible to reduce extent of impacts.

8. Beach and Recreational Facility Closures. Beach area closures shall be minimized and limited to areas immediately adjacent to the project area (within 200 feet deposition area). All beach areas and recreation facilities outside of the 200-foot radius shall remain open and available for public use during the normal operating hours. The beach bicycle path shall remain open and available for public use during normal operating hours.

9. Turbidity Control. As required by the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), the applicant shall ensure that the project does not result in:

A. Increases of water turbidity by more than twenty percent (20%) of the natural turbidity during non-storm conditions; nor

B. Dissolved oxygen in the receiving waters being depressed below 5.0 mg/l.

10. Construction Responsibilities. Activities authorized under this CDP shall comply with the following construction-related requirements:

A. No construction materials, debris, waste, oil or liquid chemicals shall be placed or stored where it may be subject to wave erosion and dispersion, stormwater, or where it may contribute to or come into contact with nuisance flow;

B. Silt curtains shall be utilized to minimize and control turbidity to the maximum extent practicable;

C. The discharge of any hazardous materials into the harbor or any receiving waters is prohibited;

D. Floating booms will be used to contain debris discharged into coastal waters and any debris discharged will be removed as soon as possible but no later than the end of each day; and

E. Non-buoyant debris discharged into coastal waters will be recovered by divers as soon as possible after loss.

11. Conformance with the Requirements of the Resource Agencies. The permittee shall comply with all requirements, requests and mitigation measures from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDF&W), Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE), and the U.S.

Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) with respect to preservation and protection of water quality and marine environment. Any change in the approved project that may be required by the above-stated agencies shall be submitted to the Executive Director in order to determine if the proposed change shall require a permit amendment pursuant to the requirements of the Coastal Act and the California Code of Regulations. No changes to the approved development shall occur without a Commission amendment to this coastal development permit or a new coastal development permit, unless the Executive Director determines that no amendment or new permit is legally required.

12. Assumption of Risk, Waiver of Liability, and Indemnity. By acceptance of this permit, the permittee acknowledges and agrees (i) that the sites may be subject to hazards from wave uprush, storm conditions, and sea level rise; (ii) to assume the risks to the permittee and the properties that are the subject of this permit of injury and damage from such hazards in connection with this permitted development; (iii) to unconditionally waive any claim of damage or liability against the Commission, its officers, agents, and employees for injury or damage from such hazards; and (iv) to indemnify and hold harmless the Commission, its officers, agents, and employees with respect to the Commission’s approval of the project against any and all liability, claims, demands, damages, costs (including costs and fees incurred in defense of such claims), expenses, and amounts paid in settlement arising from any injury or damage due to such hazards.
