75,000 square feet of community serving

uses and 75,000 square feet of visitor

serving retail uses. The proposed marina

would accommodate up to 700 boat

ships with access to Santa Monica Bay

via a new entrance channel to the main

channel of Marina del Rey. This

Channel would be approximately 200

feet wide and excavated to a depth of

¥16 feet MSL. This proposed

development would result in the dredge

and/or fill of 9.8 acres of degraded

wetlands, 4.8 acres of which would be

within the footprint of the proposed

marina.

Issues

There are several potential

environmental issues that will be

addressed in the EIS/EIR. Additional

issues may be identified during the

scoping process. Issues initially

identified as potentially significant

include:

1. Geological issues including

subsidence, seismic concerns and

landform alternation.

2. Impacts to surface and groundwater

hydrology and water quality.

3. Potential impacts to terrestrial,

aquatic and marine biological resources.

4. Impacts to prehistoric and historic

cultural resources.

5. Impacts to air quality.

6. Traffic and transportation related

impacts.

7. Potential noise impacts.

8. Land use impacts.

9. Impacts to public utilities and

services.

10. Socioeconomic impacts including

population, housing and infrastructure

costs and benefits.

11. Impact to aesthetic resources.

12. Potential impacts on public health

and safety.

13. Cumulative impacts.

Alternatives

Several alternatives are being

considered for restoration of the Ballona

Salt Marsh as well as alternatives to the

marina proposal. These alternatives will

be further formulated and developed

during the scoping process. In addition

to the No Action Alternative (no

restoration), two other alternatives for

salt marsh restoration have been

identified. These are a full tidal

restoration for the entire restoration area

and a muted tidal restoration for the

entire restoration area. In addition, the

EIS/EIR will consider alternatives to the

Ballona Channel as a source of salt

water for the restoration. The EIS/EIR

will also consider alternatives to the

proposed widening of Culver Boulevard.

A range of alternatives to the marina

proposal will be considered in the EIS/

EIR. These alternatives will include

other saltwater boating facility

alternatives with or without a marina

feature as well as other wetland

alternatives and the No Act Alternative.

Scoping Process

A public meeting will be held to

receive public comment and assess

public concern regarding the

appropriate scope and preparation of

the Draft EIS/EIR. Participation in the

public meeting by federal, state and

local agencies and other interested

organizations and persons is

encouraged.

The Corps of Engineers will also be

consulting with the U.S. Fish and

Wildlife Service under the Endangered

Species Act and Fish and Wildlife

Coordination Act, and with the State

Office of Historic Preservation under the

National Historic Preservation Act.

Additionally, the EIS/EIR will assess the

consistency of the proposed Action with

the Coastal Zone Management Act, as

well as executive orders on wetlands

and floodplain protection.

The public scoping meeting for the

Draft EIS/EIR will be held at the Airport

Marina Hotel, 8601 Lincoln Boulevard,

Los Angeles, California on June 7, 1995.

Two sessions, one beginning at 2:00

p.m. and the other starting at 7:00 p.m.

are scheduled. Written comments will

be received until June 21, 1995.

Availability of the Draft EIS

The Draft EIS is expected to be

published and circulated in April of

1996, and a Public Hearing will be held

after its publication.
