STATEMENT OF THE PREP ARER'S QUALIFICATIONS Plamen Petrov, P.E., the preparer of this report, holds a Master of Science in Structural Engineering from University of Architecture, Structural Engineering & Geodesy of Sofia, Bulgaria, and is a Licensed Civil Engineer by the State of California Certificate No. C66947. For the last 22 years of his professional career, he has been actively involved in the design and entitlement of many Waterfront Developments such as custom homes, seawalls, piers, platforms, floating docks and marinas. A great number of Bulkhead Condition Reports prepared by him have been reviewed and accepted/approved by California Coastal Commission. All the above being said, Plamen Petrov, P .E. shall be considered a qualified preparer for the Bulkhead Conditions Report on this project. OBSERVATION A cursory observation of the existing seawall/bulkhead was conducted by a representative of our office on October 7, 2021. Observed was the visible/exposed portion of the waterfront face of the seawall. Due to the site conditions, tie-backs were not accessible, thus not observed. FINDINGS The pre-cast jetted-in concrete panels and cast-in-place concrete coping of the seawall were found in generally good condition, without noticeable evidence of distress. Some minor cracks were observed, which is a typical condition for many of the seawalls of this vintage in the area. 1 PA2022-046
