Existing Conditions & Project Description Existing Setting Agua Hedionda Lagoon consists of three basins: the outer, middle and inner basins. The outer Agua Hedionda Lagoon (66 acres), between Carlsbad Boulevard and the railroad tracks, was originally dredged in 1954 as part of the construction for the Encina Power Station and has been subject to routine maintenance dredging, approximately every 2-3 years, since that time. The dredging is performed to remove sediment transported into the lagoon by tidal action through the existing jetty structure. The Encina Power Station was retired in 2018 and demolished in 2022, however, sand transport into the lagoon system is further accelerated by the seawater pumping activities associated with operation of the Claude “Bud” Lewis Carlsbad Desalinization Plant which came online in 2015. The plant is dependent on water intake from the ocean and therefore, the plant’s operation causes sand to accumulate in the lagoon faster than erosion alone would. Also part of the project site, Carlsbad State Beach between Oak Avenue and Cannon Road has been identified as the proposed deposition site for dredge material. The area consists of flat, open beaches with recreational Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 1 of 82 PLANNING COMMISSION Staff Report . 0 amenities such as volleyball courts and lifeguard services. In recent years, the continual movement of sand due to erosion has caused the shoreline to recede, reducing the availability of usable beach space. Various regional sand nourishment programs are being studied to address the eroding coastline. The city has processed applications for routine dredges of the lagoon in the past. The most recent approval was the issuance of a Special Use Permit (SUP 06-10X2(A)) which was approved by the Planning Commission on Sept. 20, 2017. The permit was granted with a retroactive extension of 5 years, intended to grant approval for multiple successive dredges prior to its expiration in 2021. The Special Use Permit that will be issued for the 2025 dredge cycle is not an extension of the prior permit because the applicant did not submit a request for extension prior to the 2017 permit’s expiration.

The Lagoon is a 235-acre estuary comprised of an Inner Basin, Middle Basin and Outer Basin. Maintenance dredging within the Lagoon has been conducted routinely since 1954, when the now-decommissioned Encina Power Station opened. Historical sediment removal ensured adequate flow of cooling water to the Encina Power Station, located on the southern edge of the Outer Basin, until its closure in 2018. The Carlsbad Desalination Plant is located at the same site as the former Encina Power Station and currently uses the power plant’s intake and outfall facilities for the desalination process. (Construction is presently underway to provide intake and outfall infrastructure specifically for the desalination plant.) Dredging is required to remove the flood-tide shoal and maintain the intake water flow for the Carlsbad Desalination Plant. Dredging has typically been conducted every 2 to 3 years, with the most recent dredges occurring in 2018 and 2021. Since 1999, dredged material from the Lagoon has been placed on nearby Carlsbad State Beaches. Similar to past operations, dredged material will be characterized to determine suitability for beach nourishment at the adjacent north, middle and south sediment deposition sites located on Carlsbad State Beach (Exhibit 2). The amount of sand placed on each of the receiver beaches will be determined based on existing and historical beach widths and profiles, the consideration of recreational use of each beach, and the avoidance of impacts to sensitive wetland habitat. Maintenance dredging using a hydraulic dredge is planned in the Outer Basin to a design depth of approximately -22 feet below the assessed average low tide level. The total volume of material proposed for dredging is estimated to be 451,400 cubic yards (cy), consisting of 392,400 cy above design depth with up to a 59,000 additional cy of contingency based on the lagoon conditions when the dredging occurs. The staging area would be located at the Tamarack Beach parking lot, resulting in periodic closures of the lot, and the project would use the following equipment: dredger, barge, tugboat, discharge pipe, float line, work skiffs, front end loader, forklift, and dozer. The project is anticipated to include the following phases: (1) Mobilization, (2) Middle Beach Replenishment, (3) South Beach Replenishment, and (4) North Beach Replenishment and (5) Demobilization. The overall construction schedule anticipates approximately 110 days of work, including the pre-dredge preparation, lagoon dredging, and sand deposition. Provided the applicant is able to secure permits from the applicable regulatory agencies other than the city, work is anticipated to start as early as mid-December and will be completed before the end of April 2025. The project’s proposed dredge site is located within the Agua Hedionda Segment of the city’s Local Coastal Program whereas the project’s sand deposition sites are located within both the Agua Hedionda and Mello II segments of the Local Coastal Program. Because the California Coastal Commission retains coastal development permitting authority within the Agua Hedionda Segment and a portion of the Mello II segment where sand deposition is proposed, the applicant will need to obtain a Coastal Development Permit from the Coastal Commission after the permitting process has concluded with the city. The project will also be subject to additional permitting processes through other agencies such as the Army Corps of Engineers and the California Department of Parks and Recreation. In addition to the conditions outlined in Exhibit 1, the applicant will be subject to all state and federal regulations implemented by these agencies regarding right of access, sensitive species monitoring and mitigation, and design and engineering standards for navigable waterways. The city’s determinations and conditions do not supersede those of any state or federal agency. The Special Use Permit, if approved, would be valid for a period of 5 years. The purpose of the 5-year permit would be to allow for multiple dredge cycles to occur without the applicant being required to resubmit an application for a new permit or extension. Under the Conditions of Approval, the applicant will be required, however, to submit written notice and documentation prior to each dredge detailing the proposed project, timeline, and adherence with the conditions and findings of the permit. Prior to the expiration of the permit, an applicant would be allowed to submit a request for extension upon which the application would be subject to a review of consistency and Planning Commission approval. The 5-year permit is consistent with prior approvals of this project, the most recent being SUP 06-10X2 which was approved by the Planning Commission in 2017. An Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 3 of 82 extension to the previous permit was not an option for this dredge cycle as the permit had expired prior to the submission of the request for an extension. Public Outreach & Comment The applicant completed the Early Public Notice procedures pursuant to City Council Policy No. 84 (Development Project Public Involvement Policy). A notice of project application was mailed on Sept. 6, 2024, to all owners of property located within a 600-foot radius and all residents within a 100-foot radius of the project footprint. A total of 625 property owners and residents were notified through the mailed notice of project application. No comments were received as a result of the public notice. The project was not subject to the enhanced stakeholder outreach because it did not meet the minimum qualifying criteria as outlined in Policy No. 84. The applicant posted a sign meeting Policy No. 84 specifications adjacent to the project site notifying all pass-by traffic of the project, which provides the project name, application numbers, description, as well as both developer and city staff contact information. The sign is located on the slope adjacent to the northbound lane of Carlsbad Boulevard south of the bridge over the lagoon’s intake jetty. A Notice of Determination of Exemption was posted on the city’s website on Oct. 7, 2024 and an email was distributed to interested individuals electively subscribed to the city’s environmental notice distribution list on Oct. 9, 2024. The city received no comments regarding the validity of the Determination of Exemption. The only correspondence received following the posting of the exemption was an email received on Oct. 9, 2024 indicating that there is interest from a local community science team who would like to assist with the grunion monitoring program described in the exemption. Project Analysis General Plan Consistency The City of Carlsbad General Plan includes several goals and policies that guide development and land use within the city. A discussion of how the project is consistent with the applicable General Plan policies is summarized in Exhibit 3. Municipal Code Consistency The City of Carlsbad Municipal Code, most notably Title 21 Zoning, includes requirements and provisions that guide development and land use within the city, consistent with the General Plan. Specific compliance with these relevant requirements is described in Exhibit 3. Local Coastal Program Consistency The project site is located within the Coastal Zone, within the permitting jurisdiction of the California Coastal Commission. Specifically, the dredge and sand deposition sites are located within the Agua Hedionda and Mello II segments of the city’s Local Coastal Program. Compliance with the program as required by a finding to grant the Special Use Permit is discussed in Exhibit 3. The project requires a Coastal Development Permit issued by the California Coastal Commission because the project occurs in areas where the commission has permit authority. As part of the issuance of a Coastal Development Permit, the Coastal Commission will be responsible as well for determining whether the project is consistent with the city’s Local Coastal Program, however, the city has also made findings as required by the Special Use Permit that the project is consistent with the Local Coastal Program. Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 4 of 82 Discretionary Actions & Findings The proposed project requires approval of a Special Use Permit, as described below: Special Use Permit - Floodplain (SUP 2024-0006) Approval of a Special Use Permit (SUP) is required if the project site falls within a special flood hazard area, as per the Flood Insurance Rate Map dated May 15, 2012. This permit is necessary to ensure public health, safety, and welfare are protected and to minimize flood-related losses. Staff finds that the required findings for this application can be met for both the dredge and sand deposition sites (Exhibit 1). Environmental Review The City Planner, through the process outlined in Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 19.04.060, has determined that this project is exempt from further environmental review pursuant to State California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guideines Section 15304(g) – Minor Alterations to Land which exempts projects for maintenance dredging where the spoil is deposited in a spoil area authorized by all applicable state and federal regulatory agencies. On Oct. 7, 2024, a notice of intended decision regarding the environmental determination was advertised and posted on the city’s website. No comments were received, and no appeals were filed. Consistent with Chapter 21.54 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code (Procedures, Hearings, Notices, and Fees) the City Planner’s written decision is final. Refer to Exhibit 5 for additional support and justification. Conclusion Considering the information above and in the referenced exhibits, staff has found that the proposed project is consistent with all applicable policies of the General Plan, Local Coastal Program and provisions of the Municipal Code. In addition, there is no possibility that the proposed project will have a significant effect on the environment. The project is conditioned to ensure the project’s compatibility with the surrounding properties and that the public health, safety, and welfare of the community are maintained. The project would be required to comply with all applicable state and federal requirements related to right of access, species protection and monitoring, and design requirements for work on a navigable waterway. Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the resolution approving the proposed project as described in this staff report. Exhibits 1. Planning Commission Resolution 2. Location Map 3.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of Carlsbad as follows: A) That the foregoing recitations are true and correct. B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Planning Commission APPROVES SUP 2024-0006 (DEV06068) - AGUA HEDIONDA LAGOON MAINTENANCE DREDGING, based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: Findings: 1. The project is consistent with the General Plan, Local Coastal Program, the requirements of this chapter, and any other applicable requirements of this code including but not limited to the following goals, policies and requirements: General Plan a. Open Space Open Space, Conservation, and Recreation Element Goals 4-G.3 in that studies and regulations to which the project is subject ensure that sensitive species will not be disturbed by project activities. If a maintenance dredge is not performed, the lagoon will not be able to retain its shape or hold adequate amounts of water, compromising existing habitat. b. Conservation, and Recreation Element Goals 4-G.5 and 4-G.9 in that the placement of dredged sand on the beach will enhance and protect important city open space resources and public recreation opportunities by maintaining or increasing the size (i.e., square footage area) of useable public beach and maintaining the lagoon as a unique seawater lagoon. c. Open Space, Conservation, and Recreation Element Policy 4-P.33 in that dredging the outer lagoon will allow for the continued flow of fresh, nutrient-rich ocean waters into the lagoon, thereby maintaining/improving the overall health of the lagoon. d. Public Safety Element 6-G.1 in that placement of dredged sand on the beach will enhance and protect important city open space resources by assisting the buildup of a deteriorating beach profile and by creating a wider beach which will assist in the protection of coastal Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 7 of 82 bluffs from erosion caused by ocean wave action, thereby protecting private and public property in the vicinity of the beach. e. Public Safety Element Policy 6-P.1 in that the project proposes no improvements in any floodway or flood hazard area and is consistent with the city’s Floodplain Management Regulations (Municipal Code Chapter 21.110). f. Public Safety Element Policy 6-P.2 in that placement of dredged sand on the beach will assist the buildup of a deteriorating beach profile and create a wider beach, which will assist in the protection of coastal bluffs from erosion caused by ocean wave action, thereby protecting private and public property and infrastructure in the vicinity of the beach. Local Coastal Program g. The project conforms to public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act in that the placement of dredged sand on the beach will enhance public recreation opportunities by maintaining or increasing the size (square footage area) of useable beach. Further, during dredging operations, a pedestrian circulation control and signage plan will be implemented to ensure project awareness and safe beach access through means such as signs, fencing, construction methods, and a project information number/hotline. h. The project implements Agua Hedionda Land Use Plan (Agua Hedionda Lagoon segment) Policy 3.3 in that it is conditioned to comply with the requirements of all federal and state agencies. i. The project supports the Coastal Act and Agua Hedionda Land Use Plan Policy 6.5 in that dredging will allow for the continued flow of fresh, nutrient-rich ocean waters into the lagoon, thereby maintaining/improving the overall health of the lagoon and enhancing the outer lagoon for fishing. j. The project supports Mello II segment Policy 4-1, Coastal Erosion, regarding beach sand erosion and shoreline structures in that it will deposit sand onto the beach to help combat beach sand erosion; specifically, Section III of Policy 4-1 states in part, “projects which create dredge spoils shall be required to deposit such spoils on the beaches if the material is suitable for sand replenishment.” Zoning Ordinance k. The project is consistent with Chapter 21.33, Open Space Zone, in that it aligns with the zone’s intent and purpose and permitted uses that provide and encourage open space and recreational uses and protects biological resources of the Agua Hedionda Lagoon. l. The project is consistent with Chapter 21.203, Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone, and specifically Section 21.203.040, in that the temporary dikes and berms created as part of the sand deposition process on the beach help ensure shoreline ocean turbidity does not exceed the limit as set in the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board 401 Water Quality Certifications. Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 8 of 82 m. The project is consistent with the intent of Chapter 21.204, Coastal Shoreline Development Overlay Zone, in terms of maintaining the shoreline as unique recreational and scenic resource and improving public access to it. 2. The site is reasonably safe from flooding in that the proposed dredging will take place within the lagoon. The sand deposition sites along the North, Middle, and South beaches will create an additional buffer and reduce risk from coastal flooding as a result of the planned beach nourishment using the deposited dredge material. Work may be halted during periods of rain or other inclement weather. 3. The project as proposed has been designed to minimize the flood hazard to the habitable portions of the structure in that the project does not propose any habitable structures as defined by the city's municipal code. 4. The proposed project does not create a hazard for adjacent or upstream properties or structures in that no watercourse will be altered or relocated as a result of the project. Project equipment Is not located in a manner that will impede natural site drainage or stormwater flows due to it secured placement on top of lagoon waters and use of an existing land-based pipeline system to transport dredge material from the lagoon to the beach. Further, dredge materials placed on beaches will not block existing drainage. 5. The proposed project does not create any additional hazard or cause adverse impacts to downstream properties or structures in that the dredge hull (barge) will be secured to existing anchors on the shore of the lagoon, and dredge material from the hull will be carried via a floating pipe to a land-based pipeline system along the lagoon shoreline that connects to the beach underneath Carlsbad Boulevard or the Carlsbad Boulevard bridge and then to the North, Middle and South beaches where it will then discharge on the shoreline as a mix of sand and water (slurry). Temporary dikes and berms will be constructed along back-beach areas to de-water the slurry and aid in retention of the sand. Staging areas for equipment will be placed in disturbed or developed areas adjacent to the lagoon and beaches. 6. The proposed project does not reduce the ability of the site to pass or handle a base flood of 100-year frequency. The proposed project will reduce the volume of sand in the lagoon, thereby increasing the lagoon’s capacity to withhold water. The project does not alter the inlet or outflow of the outer lagoon (dredging will occur entirely east of the Carlsbad Boulevard bridge and does not affect the lagoon outlet whatsoever), and thus, does not change the capacity of the lagoon to pass floodwaters. 7. The cumulative effect of the proposed project when combined with all the other existing, proposed, and anticipated development will not increase the water surface elevation of the base flood more than one foot at any point in that the proposed project will reduce the volume of sand in the lagoon, thereby increasing the lagoon’s capacity to withhold water. The project does not alter the inlet or outflow of the Outer Lagoon, and thus, does not change the capacity of the lagoon to pass floodwaters and would maintain existing surface water elevation characteristics. 8. The project is contingent upon compliance with other federal and state regulations as required. The City of Carlsbad is issuing a Special Use Permit related to potential impacts of dredging activities on the land outside of lagoon waters, including beaches, but within the floodplain. The ability to Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 9 of 82 proceed with work will be contingent upon the issuance of all applicable permits from state and federal agencies such as the Army Corps of Engineers and California Coastal Commission. Conditions: NOTE: Unless otherwise specified herein, all conditions shall be satisfied prior to project commencement. 1. Approval is granted for SUP2024-0006 – AGUA HEDIONDA LAGOON MAINTENANCE DREDGING as shown on Exhibits “A” – “H”, dated Nov. 20, 2024, on file in the Planning Division and incorporated herein by reference. Development shall occur substantially as shown unless otherwise noted in these conditions. 2. If any of the following conditions fail to occur, or if they are, by their terms, to be implemented and maintained over time, if any of such conditions fail to be so implemented and maintained according to their terms, the city shall have the right to revoke or modify all approvals herein granted; deny or further condition issuance of all future building permits; deny, revoke, or further condition all certificates of occupancy issued under the authority of approvals herein granted; record a notice of violation on the property title; institute and prosecute litigation to compel their compliance with said conditions or seek damages for their violation. No vested rights are gained by Developer or a successor in interest by the city’s approval of this Special Use Permit. 3. Developer shall comply with all applicable provisions of federal, state, and local laws and regulations in effect at the time of project commencement and any successive dredge occurrences permitted by this approval. 4. If any condition for construction of any public improvements or facilities, or the payment of any fees in-lieu thereof, imposed by this approval or imposed by law on this project are challenged, this approval shall be suspended as provided in Government Code Section 66020. If any such condition is determined to be invalid, this approval shall be invalid unless the City Council determines that the project without the condition complies with all requirements of law. 5. Staff is authorized and directed to make, or require Developer to make, all corrections and modifications to the Special Use Permit document(s) necessary to make them internally consistent and in conformity with final action on the project. Development shall occur substantially as shown in the approved Exhibits. Any proposed development different from this approval shall require an amendment to this approval. 6. This project shall comply with all conditions and mitigation measures which are required as part of the Zone 1 Local Facilities Management Plan and any amendments made to that Plan prior to any dredging activities. Developer shall also pay any applicable Local Facilities Management Plan fee for Zone 1, pursuant to Chapter 21.90. All such taxes/fees shall be paid prior to any dredging activities. If the taxes/fees are not paid, this approval will not be consistent with the General Plan and shall become void. 7. This approval shall become null and void if all approvals, permits and clearances as required by federal, state and local regulations are not issued for this project within 24 months from the date of project approval by the city. Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 10 of 82 8. This Special Use Permit is granted for a period of five (5) years from Nov. 20, 2024, through Nov. 20, 2029. This permit may be revoked at any time after a public hearing, if it is found that the use has a substantial detrimental effect on surrounding land uses and the public’s health and welfare, or the conditions imposed herein have not been met. This permit may be extended for a reasonable period of time not to exceed 5 years upon written application of the permittee made no less than 90 days prior to the expiration date. The Planning Commission may not grant such extension, unless it finds that there are no substantial negative effects on surrounding land uses or the public’s health and welfare. If a substantial negative effect on surrounding land uses or the public’s health and welfare is found, the extension shall be denied or granted with conditions which will eliminate or substantially reduce such effects. There is no limit to the number of extensions the Planning Commission may grant. 9. Prior to project commencement, Developer shall submit to the city a Notice of Restriction executed by the owner of the real property to be developed. Said notice is to be filed in the office of the County Recorder, subject to the satisfaction of the City Planner, notifying all interested parties and successors in interest that the City of Carlsbad has issued Special Use Permit SUP 2024-0006 by the subject resolution on the property. Said Notice of Restriction shall note the property description, location of the file containing complete project details and all conditions of approval as well as any conditions or restrictions specified for inclusion in the Notice of Restriction. The City Planner has the authority to execute and record an amendment to the notice which modifies or terminates said notice upon a showing of good cause by the Developer or successor in interest. 10. Developer/Operator shall and does hereby agree to indemnify, protect, defend, and hold harmless the City of Carlsbad, its Council members, officers, employees, agents, and representatives, from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, demands, claims and costs, including court costs and attorney’s fees incurred by the city arising, directly or indirectly, from (a) city’s approval and issuance of this Special Use Permit, (b) city’s approval or issuance of any permit or action, whether discretionary or nondiscretionary, in connection with the use contemplated herein, and (c) Developer/Operator’s installation and operation of the facility permitted hereby, including without limitation, any and all liabilities arising from the emission by the facility of electromagnetic fields or other energy waves or emissions.

The project’s compliance with each of the above regulations is discussed in detail within the sections below. A.General Plan Consistency The project’s General Plan Land Use designation is Open Space. The project also complies with the other Elements of the General Plan as outlined in Table “A” below: TABLE A – GENERAL PLAN COMPLIANCE ELEMENT USE, CLASSIFICATION, GOAL, OBJECTIVE, OR PROGRAM PROPOSED USES & IMPROVEMENTS COMPLY Open Space, Conservation & Recreation Goal 4-G.3 – Protect environmentally sensitive lands, wildlife habitats, and rare, threatened, or endangered plant and animal communities. The studies and regulations the proposed project is subject to will ensure that sensitive species will not be disturbed by project activities. If a maintenance dredge is not performed, the lagoon will not be able to retain its shape or hold adequate amounts of water, compromising existing habitat. Dredging the outer lagoon and the intake channel, in particular, will allow for the continued flow of fresh, nutrient-rich ocean waters into the lagoon, thereby maintaining/improving the overall health of the lagoon. As the project promotes the biological function of the lagoon and as proposed would not significantly impact sensitive habitat or species, including the California Yes Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 15 of 82 PROJECT ANALYSIS (GENERAL PLAN, MUNICIPAL CODE, AND OTHER REGULATIONS) ELEMENT USE, CLASSIFICATION, GOAL, OBJECTIVE, OR PROGRAM PROPOSED USES & IMPROVEMENTS COMPLY least tern and the western snowy plover, it is consistent with the city’s Habitat Management Plan (HMP). Open Space, Conservation & Recreation Goal 4-G.5 - Maintain a diversified, comprehensive system of open space for outdoor recreation, including, but not limited to: parks; beaches; areas for organized sports; connecting corridors containing trails; water recreation areas (beaches, lagoons, lakes); unique conservation areas for nature study; and, semi-developed areas for camping. The placement of dredged sand on the beach will enhance public recreation opportunities by maintaining or increasing the size (i.e., square footage area) of useable public beach. Yes Open Space, Conservation & Recreation Goal 4-G.9 - Improve and maintain high quality beaches for residents and visitors. The placement of dredged sand on the beach will enhance public recreation opportunities by maintaining or increasing the size (i.e., square footage area) of useable public beach. Yes Public Safety Goal 6-G.1 - Minimize injury, loss of life, and damage to property resulting from fire, flood, sea-level rise, hazardous material release, or seismic disasters. The placement of dredged sand on the beach will enhance and protect important city open space resources by assisting the buildup of a deteriorating beach profile and by creating a wider beach which will assist in the protection of coastal bluffs from erosion caused by ocean wave action, thereby protecting private and public property in the vicinity of the beach. Yes Public Safety Policy 6-P.2 - Continue to implement and pursue flood control programs that reduce flood hazards, such as the city’s Grading Ordinance and the Floodplain Management Regulations. The placement of dredged sand on the beach will enhance and protect important city open space resources by assisting the buildup of a deteriorating beach profile and by creating a wider beach which will assist in the protection of coastal bluffs from erosion caused by ocean wave action, thereby protecting private and public property in the vicinity of the beach. Yes Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 16 of 82 PROJECT ANALYSIS (GENERAL PLAN, MUNICIPAL CODE, AND OTHER REGULATIONS) B.Carlsbad Municipal Code (Zoning Ordinance) 1.Open Space Zone (CMC Chapter 21.33) The project is entirely in the Open Space (OS) zone. The intent and purpose of the zone is as follows: 1.Provide for open space and recreational uses which have been deemed necessary for the aesthetically attractive and orderly growth of the community; 2.Protect and encourage said uses wherever feasible; 3.Be used in conjunction with publicly owned property utilized as parks, open space, recreation areas, civic centers and other public facilities of a similar nature; 4.Designate high priority resource areas at time of development that, when combined would create a logical and comprehensive open space system for the community; 5.Implement the goals and objectives of the general plan; 6.Protect areas set-aside and preserved as natural habitat and the biological resources located in the areas in conformance with the city's habitat management plan. The project is consistent with the Open Space Zone’s intent and purpose in that the dredging and subsequent sand deposition on the North, Middle, and South beaches will enhance recreational opportunities and coastal access by providing necessary maintenance to preserve the structure of the lagoon and supply donor sand for beach nourishment. Routine maintenance dredging is necessary to redistribute sand that has been eroded from the beach due to the presence of a littoral cell that was formed when the lagoon was created. Without maintenance dredges, the lagoon will become inaccessible for recreational uses, including fishing. Further, the project supports the zone’s permitted uses, such as aquaculture, biological habitat preserve, beaches and shoreline recreation, and public parks. The project will not disrupt sensitive ecological uses of the lagoon due to the project’s minimal footprint. The dredge footprint, in accordance with state and federal requirements, was studied to avoid impacts to the California eelgrass growing within the lagoon. Other studies, such as those which are required under the Southern California Caulerpa Control Protocol, have and will provide preventative measures which will ensure that sensitive species are not impacted by either the dredging or sand deposition activity. 2.Special Use Permit – Floodplain (CMC Chapter 21.110) The project is within the “AE” (lagoon) and “VE” (beaches) flood zones. These areas have a 1% chance of being affected by flooding in a given year, also known as the base flood or 100-year flood. In addition, Zone VE recognizes additional hazards that may result due to storm-induced waves. Before construction can begin, a Special Use Permit is necessary to ensure public health, safety, and welfare are protected and minimize flood-related losses. The project’s compliance with the Floodplain Special Use Permit Standards is discussed below: a.The project is consistent with the General Plan, Local Coastal Program, the requirements of this chapter, and any other applicable requirements of this code. (Note: Compliance with this finding is discussed elsewhere in this exhibit under the “General Plan,” “Local Coastal Program,” and “Zoning Ordinance” headings.) Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 17 of 82 PROJECT ANALYSIS (GENERAL PLAN, MUNICIPAL CODE, AND OTHER REGULATIONS) b.The site is reasonably safe from flooding in that the proposed dredging will take place within the lagoon. The sand deposition sites along the North, Middle, and South beaches will create an additional buffer and reduce risk from coastal flooding as a result of the planned beach nourishment using the deposited dredge material. Work may be halted during periods of rain or other inclement weather. c.The project as proposed has been designed to minimize the flood hazard to the habitable portions of the structure in that the project does not propose any habitable structures as defined by the city's municipal code. d.The proposed project does not create a hazard for adjacent or upstream properties or structures in that no watercourse will be altered or relocated as a result of the project. Project equipment Is not located in a manner that will impede natural site drainage or stormwater flows due to it secured placement on top of lagoon waters and use of an existing land-based pipeline system to transport dredge material from the lagoon to the beach. Further, dredge materials placed on beaches will not block existing drainage. e.The proposed project does not create any additional hazard or cause adverse impacts to downstream properties or structures in that the dredge hull (barge) will be secured to existing anchors on the shore of the lagoon, and dredge material from the hull will be carried via a floating pipe to a land-based pipeline system along the lagoon shoreline that connects to the beach underneath Carlsbad Boulevard or the Carlsbad Boulevard bridge and then to the North, Middle and South beaches where it will then discharge on the shoreline as a mix of sand and water (slurry). Temporary dikes and berms will be constructed along back-beach areas to de-water the slurry and aid in retention of the sand. Staging areas for equipment will be placed in disturbed or developed areas adjacent to the lagoon and beaches. f.The proposed project does not reduce the ability of the site to pass or handle a base flood of 100-year frequency. The proposed project will reduce the volume of sand in the lagoon, thereby increasing the lagoon’s capacity to withhold water. The project does not alter the inlet or outflow of the outer lagoon (dredging will occur entirely east of the Carlsbad Boulevard bridge and does not affect the lagoon outlet whatsoever), and thus, does not change the capacity of the lagoon to pass floodwaters. g.The cumulative effect of the proposed project when combined with all the other existing, proposed, and anticipated development will not increase the water surface elevation of the base flood more than one foot at any point in that the proposed project will reduce the volume of sand in the lagoon, thereby increasing the lagoon’s capacity to withhold water. The project does not alter the inlet or outflow of the Outer Lagoon, and thus, does not change the capacity of the lagoon to pass floodwaters and would maintain existing surface water elevation characteristics. h.The project is contingent upon compliance with other federal and state regulations as required. The City of Carlsbad is issuing a Special Use Permit related to potential impacts of dredging activities on the land outside of lagoon waters, including beaches, but within the floodplain. The ability to proceed with work will be contingent upon the issuance of all Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 18 of 82 PROJECT ANALYSIS (GENERAL PLAN, MUNICIPAL CODE, AND OTHER REGULATIONS) applicable permits from state and federal agencies such as the Army Corps of Engineers and California Coastal Commission. 3. Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone The development is subject to the Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.203). The Coastal Resource Protection Overlay Zone identifies areas of protection: a) preservation of steep slopes and vegetation; b) drainage, erosion, sedimentation, habitat; c) seismic hazards, landslides, and slope instability; and d) floodplain development. The project’s compliance with each of these areas of concern is discussed below: Preservation of steep slopes and vegetation (a) and seismic hazards, landslides, and slope instability (c) are not applicable to the project given the geography of the project area which consists of flat beaches and the outer lagoon basin. Regarding Drainage, Erosion, Sedimentation, Habitat (b), the project will adhere to the city’s Master Drainage Plan, Grading Ordinance, Storm Water Ordinance, BMP Design Manual and Jurisdictional Runoff Management Program (JRMP) to avoid increased urban run-off, pollutants, and soil erosion. Further, the temporary dikes and berms created as part of the sand deposition process on the beach help ensure shoreline ocean turbidity does not exceed the limit as set in the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board 401 Water Quality Certifications. The conditional requirements imposed by the city and the other approving state and federal agencies requiring pre- and post-dredge studies regarding the presence of Caulerpa and grunion within the project site will, in addition to the surveys conducted prior to the project application, provide information on protected species. Finally, while the project is within flood zones, no structures of development are proposed. 4. Coastal Shoreline Development Overlay Zone The project is subject to the Coastal Shoreline Development Overlay Zone (CMC Chapter 21.204) as required by the Mello II Segment of the of the LCP. The Coastal Shoreline Development Overlay Zone provides land use regulations along the coastline area including the beaches, bluffs, and the land area immediately landward thereof. The purpose of the coastal shoreline development zone is to provide for control over development and land use along the coastline so that the public's interest in maintaining the shoreline as a unique recreational and scenic resource, promoting public safety and access, and in avoiding the adverse geologic and economic effect of bluff erosion, is adequately protected. The project is consistent with the permitted uses outlined in Section 21.204.030 of the CMC as there will be no structures or uses changed by the project. The project is further compliant with the provisions of the Coastal Shoreline Development Overlay Zone as it adheres to Section 21.204.040(b) of the CMC which identifies the requirement for projects generating dredge spoils to deposit the dredged sand back onto beaches if the sand is determined to be compatible with the existing conditions of the deposition site. The project identifies three beach deposition sites where the lagoon dredge material will be placed if the sand profile tests determine that the dredged material is compatible with the deposition sites. Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 19 of 82 PROJECT ANALYSIS (GENERAL PLAN, MUNICIPAL CODE, AND OTHER REGULATIONS) 5.Habitat Preservation and Management Requirements CMC Chapter 21.210 requires a Habitat Management Plan (HMP) Permit for projects impacting habitat and sensitive species. The project as proposed presents no significant impacts to nesting or foraging areas of the California least tern, western snowy plover, or any other sensitive species. Therefore, no HMP permit is required. C.Local Coastal Program (Agua Hedionda & Mello II Segments) The project conforms to public access and recreation policies of Chapter 3 of the Coastal Act in that the placement of dredged sand on the beach will enhance public recreation opportunities by maintaining or increasing the size (square footage area) of useable beach. Further, during dredging operations, a pedestrian circulation control and signage plan will be implemented to ensure project awareness and safe beach access through means such as signs, fencing, construction methods, and a project information number/hotline. 1.Agua Hedionda Lagoon Segment of the Certified Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies The proposed site is primarily within the Agua Hedionda Segment of the Local Coastal Program (LCP) and is within an area of deferred certification as established by the California Coastal Commission. The California Coastal Commission will be the agency issuing the Coastal Development Permit. While the city does not have Coastal Development Permit authority, under the floodplain regulations of CMC Chapter 21.110, the city must still make a finding of compliance with the Local Coastal Program. The analysis following for the Agua Hedionda segment (the standards and policies of which are contained in the Agua Hedionda Land Use Plan) and for the Mello II segment in the next section provide the consistency analysis for each segment. Under Section 30233(a) of the Public Resources Code, dredging is permitted in accordance with all applicable provisions provided that there is no feasible less environmentally damaging alternative is available and where feasible mitigation measures have been provided to limit adverse effects. Staff determined, through the analysis conducted when preparing the project’s CEQA Determination of Exemption, that the project does not have the potential to cause significant negative impacts on the environment (Exhibit 5). Under Section 30233(b), sand spoil deposition is permitted under the condition that the disposal shall be carried out in a way that will avoid significant disruption to marine and wildlife habitats and water circulation. The LCP also directs that dredge sand spoils be directed to appropriate beaches or longshore current systems. The applicant provided studies that evaluated the carrying capacities of the of north, middle, and south beach sand deposition sites as well as plans outlining how the sand will be tested prior to deposition. Based on the information provided, staff determined that the project does not have the potential to cause significant impacts by placing the sand on the studied deposition sites. Under Section 30233(c), dredging is permitted under the condition that the dredging shall maintain or enhance the functional capacity of the wetland or estuary and be limited to restorative measures amongst other minor, incidental purposes. The purpose of the of the project is to complete routine maintenance Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 20 of 82 PROJECT ANALYSIS (GENERAL PLAN, MUNICIPAL CODE, AND OTHER REGULATIONS) to the lagoon that is necessary to retain use of the lagoon for the Desalination Plant and ensure that the lagoon is able to carry an adequate amount of water unimpeded by large quantities of eroded sand. The project is compliant with this segment of the LCP due to the dredging being a restorative measure intended to regulate the amount of eroded material present in the lagoon. With regards to policies specific to the Agua Hedionda Lagoon Land Use Plan, the project implements Policy 3.3 in that it is conditioned to comply with the requirements of all federal and state agencies. The project supports Policy 6.5 in that dredging will allow for the continued flow of fresh, nutrient-rich ocean waters into the lagoon, thereby maintaining/improving the overall health of the lagoon and enhancing the outer lagoon for fishing. The proposed dredging and deposition activities are consistent with Section 30233 which discuss the allowance of dredging activities and the conditions which must be met to permit dredging. 2. Mello II Segment of the Certified Local Coastal Program and all applicable policies The portion of the project along the beach and north of Tamarack Avenue is in the Mello II Segment of the LCP and is within an area in which the Coastal Commission maintains permit jurisdiction, which means the California Coastal Commission, not the city, will be the agency issuing the Coastal Development Permit. Open Space for recreational uses is an approved use under the provisions of the Mello II Segment and the project’s intended purpose of maintaining existing habitat and providing beach nourishment are thereby compatible with the approved uses within the Mello II Segment. In addition, the project’s deposition of sand onto the beach to help combat beach sand erosion complies with Section III of Mello II Policy 4-1, which states in part, “projects which create dredge spoils shall be required to deposit such spoils on the beaches if the material is suitable for sand replenishment.” Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 21 of 82 Ccityof Carlsbad AUTHORIZATION, CONSENT, AND DISCLOSURE STATEMENT P-1(A) Development Services Planning Division 1635 Faraday Avenue 442-339-2600www.carlsbadca.gov §) APPLICATION AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT INFORMATION This submittal form (Part A through Part F) must be completed as part of your application with the City of Carlsbad.

Applicant Declarations (to be signed by Applicant) I hereby certify that I have read the information below and that: 1. I have carefully reviewed and prepared the application and plans in accordance with the instructions. 2. I understand that the specific information needed to initiate planning case processing corresponds to those items listed in the application form's "Minimum Submittal Intake Requirements Checklist." I also understand that even if the application is duly filed and accepted for intake processing, each application submitted to the Planning Division is required to have specified information included in the application packet before it is determined to be complete. The specific information to determine completeness is in "Completeness Determination Requirements Checklist." 3. The Planning Division has developed policies to help ensure that discretionary permit applications are timely processed. The Permit Streamlining Act shot clock starts on the intake date the Planning staff accepts a duly filed application. 4. I understand that once an application is determined to be complete, project or design changes that will increase the number of units, add uses that were not previously listed, substantially change the site plan, or other changes that trigger the need for additiona l discretionary approvals will require a new application, or the filing of other application permit types, which would restart the review "clock" and extend processing timelines. 5. I understand that upon city review, additional information, documents, reports, entitlements and fees might be required, including any referral fees. I understand that all fees and deposits submitted with this application will be refunded only as provided for by the ordinances, regulations, or policies in effect at the time of the application submittal. 6. I certify that the description of the development and all the plans and supporting documentation are accurate in all material respects as of the date when made. I understand that it is my responsibility to ensure that statements and representations are not misleading. Furthermore, I agree to promptly remove, correct, or add information as needed to correct any misleading or materially inaccurate information. I understand that any misstatement or omission of the requested information or of any information subsequently requested might be Page 4 of 6 P-1 (A) Form Rev 4/2024 Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 26 of 82 grounds for rejecting the application, deeming the application incomplete, denying the application, suspending or revoking a permit issued on the basis of these or subsequent representations, or for the seeking of such other and further relief as deemed appropriate by the City of Carlsbad. 7. If discrepancies exist between the architectural plans and the structural plans, the architectural plans shall take precedence. Ultimately, the scope of work, as described on the permit that authorizes construction, takes precedence over the plans. If there is a discrepancy between the plans and the description on the permit, the permit governs. 8. I understand that all materials submitted in connection with this application might become public record subject to inspection and copying by the public. I acknowledge and understand that the public might inspect and copy these materials and that some or all of the materials might be posted on the city website or elsewhere on line, outside of the city's control. 9. I understand there are no assurances at any time, implicitly or otherwise, whether provided to me in writing or by oral communications regarding final staff recommendations to the decision- making body about this application or the determination of any decision-making body. 10. I understand that the overall design process consists of several steps, each with increasingly more detail. The planning phase is one of the first steps in the design process. A Land Use Review Application (or "planning application") consists only of a schematic design package. If the project is approved or conditionally approved, the schematic design phase is immediately followed by a design development phase (with construction drawings). Construction drawings, such grading and drainage plans, are much more comprehensive and provide additional detail, specificity, and instructions on how to build and implement the project. Review comments, statements, or approvals from the City of Carlsbad concerning a Land Use Review Application are based on the representations of the intent of design and construction. City comments and statements are believed to be accurate; however, such accuracy is not guaranteed when implementing the intended design solution. I understand that the approval or conditional approval of a Land Use Review Application does not replace the more thorough review of the construction drawings by the city or another agency during the design development phase; or services or recommendations provided by design professionals, such as architects, engineers, code professionals, etc. Furthermore, the approval or conditional approval of a Land Use Review Application does not relieve the Applicant of the obligation from complying with all applicable regulations, standards, policies, and guidelines applicable to the design development phase. Therefore, the ultimate design solutions required in construction drawings may differ from the project's initial schematic design. The approved plan set of project drawings, civil plans/grading, sections, site plans, floor plans, architectural elevations, and landscape plans shall not be altered without express authorization by the City Planner. Once a permit has been issued, the Applicant may request permit modifications. "Minor" modifications might be granted if found by the City Planner to be in substantial conformity with the approved plan set, including all exhibits and permit conditions. Page 5 of 6 P-1(A) Form Rev 4/2024 Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 27 of 82 Modifications beyond the scope described in the approved plan set might require subm ittal of an amendment to the permit and approval by the authorized review body. 11. Should any proponent of the project fail to file a timely and valid appeal of the permit within the applicable appeal period, such inaction shall be deemed to constitute acceptance of the permit by the Applicant; and agreement by the Applicant to be bound by, to comply with, and to do all things required of or by the Applicant pursuant to all of the terms, provisions, and conditions of the issued permit or other approval. 12. As part of this application, the Applicant hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the City of Carlsbad, its Council, boards and commissions, officers, employees, volunteers, and agents from any claim, action, or proceeding against the City of Carlsbad, its Council, boards and commissions, officers, employees, volunteers and agents, to attack, set aside, void or annul an approval of the application or related decision, including environmental documents, or to challenge a denial of the application or related decisions.

Include any details necessary to adequately explain the scope and/or operation of the proposed project. You may also include any background information and supporting statements regarding the reasons for, or appropriateness of, the application. Use an addendum sheet if necessary. Channelside Water Resources LP (Channelside) is proposing to conduct maintenance dredging within the Outer Basin of Agua Hedionda Lagoon (Lagoon) in Carlsbad, California. The Lagoon is a 235-acre estuary comprising the Inner Basin, Middle Basin, and Outer Basin. Maintenance dredging within the Lagoon has been conducted routinely since 1954, when the now-decommissioned Encina Power Station opened. Historical sediment removal ensured adequate flow of cooling water to the Encina Power Station, located on the southern edge of the Outer Basin, until its closure in 2018. The Carlsbad Desalination Plant is located at the same site as the Encina Power Station and currently uses the power plant's intake and outfall facilities for the desalination process. Dredging is required to remove the flood-tide shoal and maintain the intake water flow for the Carlsbad Desalination Plant. Dredging has been conducted every 2 to 3 years, with the most recent events occurring in 2018 and 2021. Since 1999, dredged material from the Lagoon has been placed on nearby Carlsbad State Beaches. Similar to past operations, dredged material will be characterized to determine suitability for beach nourishment at the adjacent North, Middle, and South Carlsbad State Beaches. The amount of sand placed on each of the receiver beaches will be determined based on existing and historical beach widths and profiles, the consideration of recreational use of each beach, and the avoidance of impacts to sensitive hard bottom habitat. Maintenance dredging using a hydraulic dredge is planned in the Outer Basin to a design depth of -22 feet mean lower low water (MLLW), plus 2 feet of overdredge allowance. The total volume of material proposed for dredging is estimated to be 451,400 cubic yards (cy), consisting of 392,400 cy above design depth and 59,000 cy of allowable overdredge. The staging area would be located at the Tamarack parking lot and the project would use the following equipment: dredger, barge, tugboat, discharge pipe, float line, work skiffs, front end loader, forklift, and dozer. The project is anticipated to include the following phases: (1) North Beach Mobilization, (2) Middle Beach Replenishment, (3) South Beach Replenishment, and (4) North Beach Replenishment and (5) Demoblization. The overall construction schedule anticipates approximately 110 days of construction, starting in Fall 2024.

Lessor may require any of the following in considering consent of an Assignment: (a} the nature, effective date, terms, and conditions of the assignment; (b} a description of the identity, net worth, and previous business experience of the proposed assignee; (c} a complete business plan prepared by the proposed assignee; and (d} any further information relevant to the proposed Assignment that Lessor reasonably requests.

Maintenance dredging within the Lagoon has been conducted routinely since 1954, when the now-decommissioned Encina Power Station opened. Historical sediment removal ensured adequate flow of cooling water to the Encina Power Station, located on the southern edge of the Outer Basin, until its closure in 2018. The Carlsbad Desalination Plant is located at the same site as the Encina Power Station and currently uses the power plant’s intake and outfall facilities for the desalination process. Dredging is required to remove the flood-tide shoal and maintain the intake water flow for the Carlsbad Desalination Plant. Dredging has typically been conducted every 2 to 3 years, with the most recent events occurring in 2018 and 2021. Since 1999, dredged material from the Lagoon has been placed on nearby Carlsbad State Beaches. Similar to past operations, dredged material will be characterized to determine suitability for beach nourishment at the adjacent North, Middle, and South Carlsbad State Beaches. The amount of sand placed on each of the receiver beaches will be determined based on existing and historical beach widths and profiles, the consideration of recreational use of each beach, and the avoidance of impacts to sensitive hard bottom habitat. Maintenance dredging using a hydraulic dredge is planned in the Outer Basin to a design depth of -22 feet mean lower low water plus 2 feet of overdredge allowance. The total volume of material proposed for dredging is estimated to be 451,400 cubic yards (cy), consisting of 392,400 cy above design depth and 59,000 cy of allowable overdredge. The staging area would be located at the Tamarack parking lot and the project would use the following equipment: dredger, barge, tugboat, discharge pipe, float line, work skiffs, front end loader, forklift, and dozer. The project is anticipated to include the following phases: (1) Mobilization, (2) Middle Beach Replenishment, (3) South Beach Replenishment, and (4) North Beach Replenishment and (5) Demobilization. The overall construction schedule anticipates approximately 110 days of construction. The project is located within the Agua Hedionda Segment of the city’s Local Coastal Program, where the California Coastal Commission retains coastal development permitting authority. The applicant will need to obtain a Coastal Development Permit from the Coastal Commission after the permitting process has concluded with the city. The project site has a General Plan designation of Open Space (OS) and a zoning designation of Open Space (OS). Name of Public Agency Approving Project: City of Carlsbad Name of Person or Agency Carrying Out Project: Channelside Water Resources LP Name of Applicant: Paul Rajmaira Applicant’s Address: 4590 Carlsbad Boulevard, Carlsbad, CA 92008 Applicant’s Telephone Number: 832-488-8298 Name of Applicant/Identity of person undertaking the project (if different from the applicant above): AnchorQEA -Blair Jenet - 9700 Research Drive, Irvine, CA 92618 - 703-408-3413 Exempt Status: (Check One) Ministerial (Section 21080(b)(1); 15268); Declared Emergency (Section 21080(b)(3); 15269(a)); Emergency Project (Section 21080(b)(4); 15269 (b)(c)); Exhibit 5 Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 61 of 82 □ □ □ Revised 07/21 Categorical Exemption - State type and section number: Class 1, 15304(g) – Minor Alterations to Land Statutory Exemptions - State code number: Common Sense Exemption (Section 15061(b)(3)) Reasons why project is exempt: The California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), and its implementing regulations ("CEQA Guidelines"), adopted by the Secretary of the California Natural Resources Agency, list classes of projects that have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and as a result are exempt from further environmental review under CEQA. City staff completed a review of the Project and its potential environmental impacts pursuant to CEQA and concluded that the Project qualified for an exemption pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15304(g) – Minor Alterations to Land. CEQA Guidelines Section 15304 is a Class 4 exemption for existing facilities. It includes subsection (g), which states “maintenance dredging where the spoil is deposited in an area authorized by all applicable state and federal regulatory agencies.” Dredging of the lagoon and deposition of spoil nearby has occurred regularly for over 60 years and is vital to maintain water flow to both past and present critical infrastructure. City approval of the Project is conditioned upon the applicant complying with all federal, state, and local regulations. Besides the city, this requires the Project applicant to obtain approval, permits, and clearances as necessary from the Army Corps of Engineers, United States Fish and Wildlife Service, the California Coastal Commission and the California State Lands Commission before the Project may initiate. Exceptions to the Use of Categorical Exemptions: Planning staff evaluated all the potential exceptions to the use of Categorical Exemptions for the proposed Project (in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2) and determined that none of these exemptions apply as explained below: •Cumulative Impact - "All exemptions for these classes are inapplicable when the cumulative impact of successive projects of the same type in the same place, over time, is significant.” The Project does not havethe potential to have significant impacts due to cumulative impacts from successive dredge cycles. Maintenance dredging of the lagoon has been occurring on a bi-annual basis for over 60 years as it is required to maintain the structure of the lagoon to previously provide a reliable source of cooling water for the former Encina Power Station and currently provide a reliable source of supply water for the Carlsbad Desalination Plant. Construction of the power station and accompanying lagoon dredging in the early 1950s created a littoral cell which causes the disturbance of sediment movement and creates a self-contained zone of erosion. Though the power station was retired in 2018 and subsequently demolished, the need for regular lagoon dredging continues to ensure a water supply for the desalination plant. Due to the cyclical deposition of sand into the lagoon caused by the littoral cell, dredging is necessary to return the eroded sand onto the North, Middle, and South Beaches, which it originated from. Dredging the lagoon is arestorative process which reduces the impacts of erosion. The completion of successive dredges will not have a significant effect because the project area’s health and structure are dependent on the completion of periodic dredge cycles. Furthermore, before the Project commences, all necessary federal, state and local approvals and permits must be obtained. •Significant Effect - "A categorical exemption shall not be used for any activity where there is a reasonable possibility that the activity will significantly affect the environment due to unusual circumstances. There are no unusual circumstances related to the land within the Project footprint that would have a significant impact. The Project area has been regularly dredged for more than 60 years and has been extensively studied and monitored by state and federal agencies, reducing the likelihood that the project will encounter unusual circumstances which may have significant impacts. A previous unusual circumstance which occurred within the project area, the discovered presence of Caulerpa taxifolia within the Agua Hedionda Lagoon, has been mitigated by the California Coastal Commission’s requirements to follow the Caulerpa Control Protocol which requires the applicant perform a comprehensive survey prior to the start of dredging activities. Federal legislation passed under the Noxious Weed Act has also limited the likelihood of accidental contamination due to its prohibition of the interstate sale or transport of Caulerpa strains. The Project is subject to obtaining all necessary state, federal and local approvals and permits before any dredging may occur. •Scenic Highway - "A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may result in damage to scenic resources, including but not limited to, trees, historic buildings, rock outcroppings, or similar resources, within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway.” The Project does not have the potential to disturb scenic resources within a state-designated scenic highway. While the Project is located Nov. 20, 2024 Item #1 62 of 82 ~ □ □ Revised 07/21 within a mile of California Interstate 5, the freeway segment the Project is located nearest to is not included in the state’s list of designated State Scenic Highways as pursuant to Section 263 of the Government Code. •Hazardous Waste Site - “A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project located on a site which is included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.” The Project does not have the potential to disturb hazardous waste sites. A review of available records did not identify any hazardous waste sites within the project footprint which are included on any list compiled pursuant to Section 659.62.4 of the Government Code. •Historical Resources - "A categorical exemption shall not be used for a project which may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource.” The Project does not have the potential to disturb historical resources. A review of the National Register of Historical Places indicated that the projectfootprint does not include any parcels that have been designated as historic places, a determination consistent with previous reviews conducted by certified district engineers of the Army Corps of Engineers. Additionally, previous dredge cycles have not resulted in the discovery of cultural or historical resources, therefore the discovery of new resources is highly unlikely. Continued compliance with all state and federal regulations is required for the proposed and any subsequent dredging cycles. Planning staff also evaluated the two potential exceptions to the use of Categorical Exemptions as defined by Section 19.04.070 B. of the Carlsbad Municipal Code and determined that neither applies as explained below: •“Grading and clearing activities affecting sensitive plant or animal habitats which disturb, fragment, or remove such areas as defined by either the California Endangered Species Act (Fish and Game Code Sections 2050 et seq.), or the Federal Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C. Section 15131 et seq.); sensitive. rare, candidate species of special concern; endangered or threatened biological species or their habitat(specifically including sage scrub habitat for the California Gnatcatcher); or archaeological or cultural resources from either historic or prehistoric periods." •"Parcel maps, plot plans, and all discretionary development projects otherwise exempt but which affect sensitive, threatened or endangered biological species or their habitat (as defined above), archaeological or cultural resources from either historic or prehistoric periods, wetlands, stream courses designated on U.S. Geological Survey maps, hazardous materials, unstable soils or other factors requiring special review, on all or a portion of the site." The Project will not create significant impacts for the aforementioned species or cultural or historical resources. While the Agua Hedionda Lagoon hosts a number of sensitive plant and animal species, the project area and previous dredging have been extensively studied, monitored, and conditioned by state and federal agencies, reducing the likelihood that the scope of work will negatively impact these species. The Project is conditioned to comply with state and federal requirements. The impacts to Zostera marina, known as eelgrass, are mitigated by the applicant’s adherence to the California Eelgrass Mitigation Policy and completion of eelgrass surveys conducted by the Army Corps of Engineers which surveyed the location and growth of eelgrass within the lagoon. The identified dredge footprint of the Project was designed respondent to the results of the survey. The impacts to the Sternula antillarum browni, known as the California least tern, are mitigated by the Project’s required compliance with state and federal requirements to conclude dredging prior to April 15 in observance of the tern’s breeding season. However, surveys conducted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) detailed in the agency’s 2020 publication of the 5-year species review indicate that there have been no observed pairs of terns nesting in the outer lagoon in recent history, so the restriction is included as a project design feature to eliminate any potential conflicts. The outer lagoon is the portion of Agua Hedionda Lagoon where dredging has continuously occurred in the past and where it is proposed. The impacts to the Leuresthes tenuis, known as grunions, are mitigated by the California Coastal Commission’s pre- dredge survey requirements which require a biologist to closely monitor for spawning activity prior to and during the dredge cycle. Monitoring reports conduced for previous dredge cycles did not indicate project interference with grunion runs. Additionally, the Project’s state and federal requirements to conclude prior to April 15 coincides with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s designated closed observation grunion run schedule. No cultural or historical resources have been discovered or disturbed during previous dredge cycles. Therefore, it is highly unlikely that the dredging will uncover new resources.
