Why are we concerned about sediment deposition in Newport Bay and the dredging necessary to remove it ?

Future Task — Development of the HAMP and de minimus Ruling ,,. Priority - High t/. Harbor Resources Division What is the Purpose of a HAMP? -To provide a comprehensive area -wide aquatic resource plan that achieves a balance between aquatic resource protection and reasonable economic development and minimizes individual and cumulative effects of proposed projects. -With the HAMP approach, future projects can be authorized with programmatic level permits, if they meet specific criteria designed to avoid and minimize impacts to aquatic resources. -Under the proposed de minimus ruling losses of eelgrass of less than 10 square meters due to dredging or dock repair or construction would not require mitigation. Harbor Resources Division Accomplishment— Started consultant / staff study to revise harbor wide dock design criteria and standard drawings Future Task — Acquire Harbor Commission and City Council approval for time implementation with anticipated fire code compliance reconfiguration projects Priority - High • Standard's are necessary for consistent construction practices and modern design in the harbor. • Most of the standards and materials usage were established in the 1940's, revised in the early 70's with a few revisions in 1994. • Cash & Associates has been selected to revise and update these standards and practices. • Priority will be given to revision of commercial dock standards for timely implementation with the fire code compliance program. -All dock designs and standards, including public docks and private residential docks will be covered. Harbor Resources Division t Pt dN Future Project • Mooring Layoti t#alignment & Mooring :; Managembrtf K ` • a: Priority - High • There are about 9,900 vessels in the harbor 1,235 or about 12.5% of them are on moorings. The Army Corps has delineated certain areas of the harbor for mooring use. Over the past three decades there has been an excursion of moorings outside the designated areas. The Corps Is working on a plan to continue dredging the federal channels and the moorings need to be moved to within the delineated areas before dredging can proceed. Moorings located outside the designated areas also can inhibit safe navigation. We have proposed a budget Item that would establish a new mooring layout for better efficiency and compliance with federal rules. Harbor Patrol and City staff agree that current mooring management rules should be reviewed concurrent with layout realignment. Possible realignment of U.S. Pierhead Line and mooring area limits will be considered due to fire code and design standards Implementation.
