Alternative 4—Ocean Disposal/Minimal 

Port Development 

Disposal at Berth 243–245 (8 acres), 

Consolidated Slip Cap (20 acres), 

Cabrillo Shallow Water Habitat 

Expansion (35 acres) and/or Cabrillo 

Shallow Water Habitat Island (15 acres); 

Ocean Disposal at LA–2 or LA–3 

(remaining material). 

Alternative 5—No Action 

Complete the current project to the 

extent possible utilizing the disposal 

capacity and sites previously 

authorized. 

4. Scoping Process 

a. Potential impacts associated with 

the proposed action will be fully 

evaluated. Resource categories that will 

be analyzed are: Biology, air quality, 

hydrology/water quality, cultural 

resources, land use, geology, 

recreational, aesthetics, ground and 

vessel transportation, noise, public 

health and safety, utilities, 

socioeconomics (environmental justice), 

and cumulative impacts. 

The USACE and the Port of Los 

Angeles (POLA) are preparing a joint 

SEIS/SEIR to address potential impacts 

associated with the proposed project. 

The USACE is the Lead Federal Agency 

for compliance with NEPA for the 

project, and the POLA is the Lead State 

Agency for compliance with CEQA for 

the non-Federal aspects of the project. 

b. Participation of affected Federal, 

State, and local resources agencies, and 

concerned interest groups/individuals 

are encouraged in the scoping process. 

Public participation will be especially 

important in the environmental analysis 

by providing assistance in defining the 

scope of analysis in the SEIS/SEIR; 

identifying significant environmental 

issues and impact analysis in the SEIS/ 

SEIR; and providing useful information 

such as published and unpublished 

data, personal knowledge of relevant 

issues, and recommending mitigation 

measures associated with the proposed 

action. Those wishing to provide 

information or data relevant to the 

environmental or social impacts that 

should be included or considered in the 

environmental analysis can furnish this 

information by writing to the point of 

contact indicated above. 

c. The Draft SEIS/SEIR (DSEIS/SEIR) 

document will incorporate public 

concerns in the analysis of impacts 

associated with the Proposed Action 

and associated project alternatives. The 

DSEIS/SEIR will be sent out for a 45-day 

public review period, during which 

time both written and verbal comments 

will be solicited on the adequacy of the 

document. The Final SEIS/SEIR (FSEIS/ 

SEIR) will address the comments 

received on the DSEIS/SEIR. In 

compliance with NEPA, the FSEIS will 

be sent out for a 30-day public review 

period. Copies of the FSEIS/SEIR will be 

furnished to all who commented on the 

DSEIS/SEIR, and to anyone that requests 

a copy. The final step involves, for the 

federal SEIS, preparing a ROD and, for 

the state SEIR, certifying the SEIR and 

adopting a Mitigation Monitoring and 

Reporting Plan. The ROD is a concise 

summary of the decisions made by the 

USACE from among the alternatives 

presented in the FSEIS/SEIR. A certified 

SEIR indicates that the environmental 

document adequately assesses the 

environmental impacts of the proposed 

projects with respects to CEQA. Any 

required permit would be issued 

concurrently or soon after the issuance 

of the ROD.
