This survey was completed within the eelgrass growing season and per the California Eelgrass Mitigation Policy (CEMP). No eelgrass existed at project site, see Figure 2. No eelgrass existed at reference site, see Figure 3. This is a Pre Construction Survey Report addressing the requirement to determine impact on existing natural habitat and navigational impact to waters and channel. Location Client (Reisdent) at 4553 Cove Drive, Carlsbad, CA is proposing to replace existing dock with a new dock having different dimensions. Purpose This is a Pre Construction survey report addressing one of the requirements under the CEMP to establish a baseline for the density and extent of eelgrass for the purpose of evaluating future proposed impacts on existing natural habitat, in particular eelgrass within the waters of the United States (U.S.), in Carlsbad, California (Refer to Figure 1 ). Please note this survey report is not a scientific research paper. This report is provided to a private individual with limited resources for the purpose of obtaining the required Coastal Development permits to float a dock into place and comply with the CEMP. Survey Method This survey was conducted on April 25, 2018, beginning at approximately 1020 hour. The survey day was overcast with an air temperature of 62' Fahrenheit (F). Water temperature was 59" F. Pursuant to CEMP, Section 11.D. for "Assessing impacts to Eelgrass Habitat"', eelgrass habitats and surrounding potential habitats were measured. Since no eelgrass existed we are addressing the potential for eelgrass to grown in the project site. No quadrats were placed since no eelgrass existed. A look at the area as a whole is perhaps more productive to determine if eelgrass can grow at this project site and conditions are expected to be fairly similar over time. Due to limited private individual resources, a basic assumption was made the lack of eelgrass presence is considered to be the most likely due to sediment composition and other abiotic issues 1 Generally, effects to eelgrass habitat should be assessed using pre-and Pre -project surveys of the impact area and appropriate reference sites(s) conducted during the time period of maximum eelgrass growth (typically March through October for southern California, April through October for central California, April through October for San Francisco Bay, May through September for northern California).

(Refer to Figure 2). The survey area was delineated as 70 feet by 45 feet (3150 square feet). Diver transects were perpendicular to the sea wall and starting at the sea wall. The survey was conducted with 2 divers spaced approximately 1 foot apart. Lanes ran perpendicular to sea wall and the width of each lane was 5 feet wide with divers scanning approximately 1 foot on either side, thus 14 transects were conducted going out 45 feet from sea wall (Refer to Figure 2) covering the entire area to ensure > 75% coverage of bay floor. As per the CEMP and due to the size of the dock slip, other potential eelgrass habitats were also observed and found barren of eelgrass in what might be considered potential habitat for both the project and reference sites. (Refer to Figure 2,3). The potential eelgrass habitat was surveyed and determined abiotic parameters are consistent with existing eelgrass habitat except for sediment bottom composition which was a combination of fine sand, dirt, and rock of various sizes along with shell fragments. A review of any potential differences in the eelgrass habitat and potential eelgrass habit could be compared as both are comparable for the proliferation of eelgrass for the abiotic parameters listed in DIVE OBSERVATIONS below. The one factor that appears to be limiting for eelgrass growth is the bottom sediment composition. Sunlight is also a factor where shading occurs in project site from residence structure with sun tracking over the ocean and not directly overhead. Description of Existing Habitat and Conditions According to CEMP, Section 11, "IMPLEMENTING GUIDELINES FOR CALIFORNIA", factors to be considered in delineating potential habitat areas include appropriate circulation, light, sediment, slope, salinity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, depth, proximity to eelgrass, history of eelgrass coverage, and etc. The data in this report is compared with the data of habitat in P.L.A. Erftemeijer and K.E. van de Wolfshaar (2006) report that describes minimum tolerated, optimum range and maximum tolerated conditions for Zostera marina eelgrass and personal experience of diving in Southern California Bays. (Refer to Dive Observations and Discussion below)2. Please note that in general, abiotic parameters are generally stable year around for this site location. Dive Observations of 4553 Cove Drive: Depth: Depth ranged from O feet near shore to 7 feet at end of survey area at a distance of 45 feet out from sea wall. (Refer to Figure 2). Appropriate Circulation: Circulation in this particular dock is likely similar to the circulation pattern in the main channel of the Carlsbad because of proximity of this survey area to the jetty and main channel. 2 P.L.A.

The origin of the particulate matter is unknown, but is likely to be the same as the condition in the nearby Bay channel. Sediment: The survey area bottom substrate was sand and dirt (sediment) with rock pebbles and shell fragments. The dirt covering bottom was fine and looked as though is a accumulation of fine dirt layered over time due to project site located on main channel were tidal flows are most prominent in Carlsbad. Salinity: Salinity would be expected to be the same in the dock slip as in Carlsbad. Temperature: Water temperature variation ranges from 59° to 62° F in Carlsbad, California. Water temperature is likely higher due to shallow waters. Dissolved oxygen: Hypoxia, which is generally defined as dissolved oxygen levels that are less than 2 to 3 mg/L and creates dead zones where this condition is present in some locations of Carlsbad from water runoff of Carlsbad City. Dissolved oxygen in Harbor Waters near 4553 Cove Drive, Huntington Beach, CA can range from 4.2 mg/L to 10.3 mg/L due to several Abiotic factors. What is important here is this range is acceptable for eelgrass habitats. At time of survey dissolved oxygen was approximately 7.1 mg/L using the LaMotte Dissolved Oxygen Test Kit. The data in this report is compared to the data of habitat in Recommended Options for Maximum Water Temperature Limits and Minimum Dissolved Oxygen limits at a Compliance Point for Discharges from the South Bay Power Plant in San Diego Bay, Necessary to Protect Beneficial Uses May 2, 2003, Richard F. Ford, Ph.D. 3 Please note that in general. abiotic parameters are generally stable year around for this site location. Proximity to eelgrass coverage: The potential eelgrass habitat in the project site and reference site do not exist. The reference site, see Figure 3, is located adjacent to project site. Low Tide Exposure: Optimum conditions for eelgrass habitat include less than O to 5 percent of the time for low tide exposure. Due to the dock's location in the southern portion of Carlsbad, the proposed dock slip would not have any low tide exposure. Slope: Slope descent increases as distance increases from sea wall. The slope of survey site bottom depth starts at 5 feet at the sea wall and slopes 70 feet out from sea wall, where the depth is 10 feet. The slope of the eelgrass covered portion of the survey area (5 foot depth differential / 70 feet from sea wall) is7.1 percent. Circulation: Please note that this tide information is not exact as circulation is difficult to estimate in the Carlsbad because there are no gauges available in that area. However, circulation would be anticipated to be similar as in the Carlsbad channel. Fauna: Observation included common species of Carlsbad mussels on piles4 and common round 3 Richard F.

Styela plicata, Crassostrea gigas, Mytilus californianus, Flora: was not observed at the time of this survey conducted at 4553 Cove Drive, Carlsbad CA. Refer to Figure 2, Tables 2 and attached Eelgrass Survey Reporting Form. Other factors effecting eelgrass growth is visibility, dissolved oxygen, and water depth. Some areas of Carlsbad show signs of hypoxia and no marine life exists in these areas due to water run-off from the city. A complete study of dissolved oxygen in Carlsbad has not been conducted but having dived the harbor since 1995 and observed large areas devoid of much of the marine life. The need to monitor and protect our marine life is paramount in Carlsbad. Findings Caulerpa: No caulerpa was observed (see attached Caulerpa Survey Reporting Form). Eelgrass: Eelgrass was not observed within the survey area (Refer to attached Eelgrass Survey Reporting Form and Figure 2). Reference site, see Figure 3, did not have eelgrass present at time of this survey and has similar abiotic factors and sediment composition as the project site, Figure 2. Discussion: First, it is important to understand that CEMP requires a level of assessment in accordance with the level of impacts, and does not require an exhaustive research report. The observational survey report should provide a baseline for evaluation of future impacts to eelgrass. The survey should provide an assessment of the survey site such that the baseline can be used to adequately assess impacts to eelgrass in the two sequential years. Thus, a selection of sample size and evaluation of the quadrats are of primary importance. Second, it is important to know the history of dock slip. Historically, the existing dock has been present more than 10 years. The distribution of eelgrass within bay and estuarine systems is defined by numerous variables, including light, temperature, salinity, substrate, wave exposure, currents and nutrient availability. Eelgrass forms extensive meadows in soft-bottom habitats from the low intertidal to depths of about 20 feet (6 meters), and from sheltered areas to exposed coasts. In southern California, eelgrass has been reported to occur as deep as 98 feet (30 meters). Optimum temperatures for eelgrass growth seem to lie between 50 and 68°F (10 and 20°C). However, eelgrass is known to survive with a lower tolerance level of 21 °F (-6°C) and an upper level of 104.9°F (40.5°C). Eelgrass is a euryhaline species (able to live in a wide range of salinities) that is capable of growing near stream mouths when the water is fresh at low tide, but does not !ijrow in persistent fresh water. A salinity range of 1 Oto 30 parts per thousand is optimum for growth. 5 Allen, Larry G., Amy M. Findlay, and Carol M. Phalen. 2002.

Circulation may increase in the main Bay channel, which could account for lack of eelgrass in the outer portion of the dock slip, although there are likely other causes for this lack of eelgrass in the potential eelgrass habitat of the dock, which cannot be fully analyzed due to limited resources of the customer. However, circulation would be expected to be suitable to support eelgrass. Reduction in light due to turbidity has been identified as a major cause of the loss of seagrasses worldwide (Shepherd et al., 19898; Green and Short, 20039). Particulate matter in Huntington Harbir is high, but is likely equal in all areas of the dock slip. Visibility in Carlsbad is low due to an increased density of particulates in the sea water. Low visibility has effect on sunlight penetration into water and is a limiting factor for eelgrass existing at deeper than 12-15' depths. This measurement varies throughout Carlsbad. Sediment is a general term, which in this case is used in describing Carlsbad bottom make up which sediment is in this case made up of sand and dirt. Observation of clay or boulders or gravel has been noted while diving throughout Carlsbad docks. There is bedrock that does exist and sometimes some form of obstruction whether rocks/boulders/refuse at varying depths roughly averaging 20 feet below bottom existing slowing down pile installations. This bedrock does not appear to have a visible impact on the surface of the bottom of Carlsbad water ways. Conclusion There is no impact to eelgrass based on proposed dock slip drawing shown in Figure 2 since no eelgrass exists. It appears sediment is the issue limiting the proliferation of eelgrass due to fine sand and dirt that has been deposited over the years which best can be seen as a result of tidal flow from the main channel of Agua Hedionda water body off of which is where this project site is located. Along with sediment composition, shading, due to how the sun tracks and shading produced by residents home is also a limiting factor for eelgrass to grow. Best management practices are recommended implemented in moving existing and proposed dock systems. 7 P.L.A. Erftemeijer and K.E. van de Wolfshaar. May, 2006.
