Re: defective sea wall — 3500 Marcus Ave.
Dear Mr. Imoto:
The City of Newport Beach has become aware that bay water is seeping through your
bulkhead at higher tides and eventually flooding onto City streets. On-site inspections
revealed that the seawater builds up during higher tides requiring the use of a sump pump
to return the water to the bay. This is notice that repairs to your seawall is required to
c . ontain the waters of the harbor and prevent potential flooding.
Under the General Provisions for Harbor Permits, Section H. Repairs: The Permittee shall
keep the structures in good repair -at all times. Failure to repair, when written notice has
been given by City shall be cause for the revocation of the permit.
Please arrange for the repair of the seawall as soon as possible. This work will require a
permit from the Building Department. The pump that you presently have in your yard to
return the water to the bay requires a plumbing & electrical permit also issued by the
Building Department.
The Harbor Resources Division is requiring you to apply for the permit to do the repairs
and to obtain a permit for the pumps within thirty (30) days from the date of this letter.
Failure to comply may result in either an administrative citation or revocation of your harbor
permit.
If you need additional information in regards to this matter, please call 949-644-3034 and
ask for either Tony Melurn or Wes Armand.

Dear Sir:

The City of Newport Beach Marine Division in June 1993 corresponded with the
property owner regarding the deterioration of the bulkhead bayward of the
property at 3500 Marcus Avenue. A copy of the letter is attached for your
information. As of this date we have received no indication that those repairs
have been done. A follow-up inspection by the Marine Division indicate that the
walls are still in a deteriorated condition.
Within the next 45 days, it will be necessary for you to hire an engineer to inspect
the wall, prepare drawings and submit drawings to the billing department for a
building permit. Repairs recommended by your engineer must be completed on
or before December 15, 1996.
Failure to complete these repairs could result in grounds for revocation of the
Harbor Permit as provided by Section 4.H of the Harbor Permit Policies and
Section 17.24.094-5 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code as outlined in the
letter addressed to you of June 22, 1993.

RE: Harbor Permit 335-3500 for bulkhead baywrd of 3500 Marcus Avenue
Dear Mr. Katsumi:
The City of Newport Beach Marine Department has been notified by the City Building Department
that the bulkhead bayward of your property is deteriorating and this deterioration, particularly at
high tide, allows water to leak through the bulkhead. This water eventually ends up on City
streets and increases the chances of flooding of private property and creates a threat to public
safety.
Section 4.H. of the Harbor Permit Policies states:
4.H. "The Permittee shall keep the structure in good repair at all times. Failure to repair,
when written notice has been given by the Marine Department, shall be cause for revocation of
the permit."
As a result of this condition it will be necessary for you to institute maintenance repairs or
replacement of the existing bulkhead to resolve the above condition. Failure to make these
repairs couid result in revocation of your Harbor Permit, as stated in Section 17.24.094 of the
Newport Beach Municipal Code which states:
17.24.094(5): Grounds for Revocation. "Any permit heretofore or hereafter granted for
any structure or work in the waters of Newport Harbor or the Pacific Ocean may be revoked by
the City Council if the Work or structure has fallen into a state of disrepair."

TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Public. Works Department
SUBJECT: 35TH STREET -END REPLACEMENT NEAR MARCUS AVENUE (C-2283)
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt A resolution awarding Contract No. 2283 to Trautwein Brothers
Waterfront Construction for $42,787 and authorizing the Mayor and
the City Clerk to execute the -contract.
DISCUSSION:
'At 11:00 A. M. on January 5, 1982, the City Clerk opened and read the
following bid for this project:
Bidder Amount Bid
Trautwein Brothers Waterfront Construction $42,790
The corrected bid total is.$42,787,,which is 38% above the Engineer's
estimate of $31,000. Most of the disparity between estimated and bid amounts is�
attributed to high unit prices for bulkhead work And uhc.lassifled fill, and to the
lack of comp.eting bidders.
Funding for award is proposed from the following accounts:
Description Account No. Amount
Harbor Street En d Improvement Program 02-4181'-052 $28,000
Storm Drain Improvement Program 0273497-053 16,787
The contract provi'des for (1) replacement of the existing wooden
bulkhead with a precast concrete bulkhead along a -n improved al.ignment, (2)
replacement of the existing street end gate valve'and catch basin, (3) extension
of the street end storm drain, and (4) placement of backfill and extension of the
street end surface improvements to the improved bulkhead alignment (see attached.,�
sketch). Trautwein Brothers is a well-qualified marine contractor which has
successfully completed similar contracts for the City.
L
Although the work constitutes a minor alteration of, existing public
structures for repair and replacement and is th-erefore "categorically exempt"
from EIR requirements, staff has recentl been notified that the City must obtain
� Y.
a Coastal Development Permit (from th6"California Coastal Commission) and a
Department of the Army Permit (from the U.S. Corps of Engineers). These permits
have been applied for and, barringLmforeseen delay, should be received by March 1,
1982. Trautwein Brothers has been informed,:,of these applications and has agreed
not to commence contract work until the permi ts are received.

SUBJECT: Deteriorated Wood Bulkhead at 3500, 3502, 3504 Marcus Avenue
DATE: June 16, 1993
In an effort to reduce property loss due to flooding in the City of Newport
Beach, we investigated the causes of flooding in the 3500 block of Marcus Avenue.
On June 11, 1993 Lloyd Dalton from the Public Works Department and I inspected
the bulkhead at the subject addresses and found that the wood bulkhead is
deteriorated and is allowing earth to leak into the channel. Continued earth
leakage will result in the undermining of structural foundations. When high tide
occurs, water leaks through the bulkhead instead of a delayed rise through the
retained earth. This increases the rate of water accumulation in city streets
during rains and high tide when the tide valves have been closed by the General
Services Department. This results in an increased chance of flooding of private
property and creates a threat to public safety.
The worst bulkhead condition was found to exist at 3500 Marcus Avenue where earth
caved behind the bulkhead due to earth leakage to the bay through the
deteriorated bulkhead. Sand bags have been placed behind the bulkhead. However,
it is not an effective method of solving the problem. Since maintenance of the
bulkhead is under your department's authority, please request that the property
owners at the subject sites replace these wood bulkheads in order to protect
their properties and mitigate the causes of flooding in the area.

Reference- Your letter of September 16, 1996 regarding Harbor Permit OJ5-�502, �bLlkhead Bayward of
3502 Marcus Avenue
Dear Mr. Melurn:
The referenced letter cites a deterioration of the 6ulkhead bayward of my property, It also refers to
correspondence of June 1993 on the same subject. Subsequent to the June 1993 letter, I contacted the
City (probably your office) and discussed the condition of the bulkhead. No further response was received
from the City.
Now, as in 1993, the bulkhead is intact and no substantial leakage is occurring. I had Trautwein Bros. perform
substantial workon the southeast comer of the bulkhead Oust before they left the business). This involved
constructing a poured concrete wall in excess of six feet deep for several feet along the bulkhead, together with
a return of several feet along the south property line. This sealed my property from water encroaching from the
adjacent parcel along this side of my property. To date, this has functioned quite well and I experience little or
no seepage.
What little water does penetrate on excessively high tides is promptly returned to the bay by two sump pumps.
Under no circumstances does water end up on City streets or on adjacent private property. Further, the height
of the bulkhead was increased to the nine foot level at the time that this action was requested by the City.
I have engaged Swift Slip to perform repairs to the walk -way and dock periodically, and they have inspected the
bulkhead each time and found it to be in good condition.
I would be pleased to discuss this with you further, should the above information not answer your questions.
Incidently,.;you-may wish to correct the name and- address�peftdinhg-to-,.th i , s '. VF in yd - ur -records----,,,",
Thank you for your interest in this matter,

Re: Harbor Perrrdt #335-3504
Bulkhead Bayward, 3504 Marcus Avenue
Dear Sir:
The City of Newport Beach Marine Division in June 1993 corresponded with the
property owner regarding the deterioration of the bulkhead bayward of the
property at the above address. A copy of the letter is attached for your
information. As of this date we have received no indication that those repairs
have been done. A follow-up inspection by the Marine Division indicate that the
walls are still in a deteriorated condition.
Within the next 45 days, it will be necessary for you to hire an engineer to inspect
the wall, prepare drawings and submit drawings to the billing department for a
building permit. Repairs recommended by your engineer must be completed on
or before December 15,1996. 1
Failure to complete these repairs could result in- grounds for revocation of the
Harbor Permit as provided by Section 4.H of the Harbor Permit Policies and
Section 17.24.094-5 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code as outlined in the
letter addressed to you of June 22, 1993.
If you have any questions regarding the above or would like to discuss this
further with me, please contact me at 644-3041.
Sincerely,
Tony Melum.

RE: Harbor Permit 335-3504 for bulkhead bayward of 3504 Marcus Avenue
Dear Mr. August:
The City of Newport Beach Marine Department has been notified by the City Building Department
that the bulkhead bayward of your property is deteriorating and this deterioration, particularly at
high tide, allows water to leak through the bulkhead. This water eventually ends up on City
streets and increases the chances of flooding of private property and creates a threat to public
safety.
Section 4.H. of the Harbor Permit Policies states:
4.H. "The Permittee shall keep the structure in good repair at all times. Failure to repair,
when written notice has been given by the Marine Department, shall be cause for revocation of
the permit."
As a result of this -condition it will be necessary for you to institute maintenance repairs or
replacement of the existing bulkhead to resolve the above condition. Failure tc, make these
repairs couid result in revocation of your Harbor Permit, as stated in Section 17.24.094 of the
Newport Beach Municipal Code which states:
17.24.094(5): Grounds for Revocation. "Any permit heretofore or hereafter granted for
any structure or work in the waters of Newport Harbor or the Pacific Ocean may be revoked by
the City Council if the work or structure has fallen into a state of disrepair."
If you have questions regarding the above or would like to discuss this with me, please contact
me at 644-3044.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Tony Melum, Marine Department
FROM: Faysal Jurdi, Chief Plan Check Engineer
SUBJECT: Deteriorated Wood Bulkhead at 3500, 3502, 3504 Marcus Avenue
DATE: June 16, 1993
In an effort to reduce property loss due to flooding in the City of Newport
Beach, we investigated the causes of flooding in the 3500 block of Marcus Avenue.
On June 11, 1993 Lloyd Dalton from the Public Works Department and I inspected,
the bulkhead at the subject addresses and found that the wood bulkhead isi
deteriorated and is allowing earth to leak into the channel. Continu-ed earth
I eakage wi 11 resul t i n the undermi ni ng of structural foundations. When high tide
occurs, water leaks through the bulkhead instead of a delayed rise through the
retained earth. This increases the rate of water accumulation in city streets
during rains and high tide when the tide valves have been closed by the General
Services Department. This results in an increased chance of flooding of private
property and creates a threat to public safety.
The worst bulkhead condition was found to exist at 3500 Marcus Avenue where earth
caved behind the bulkhead due to earth leakage to the bay through the
deteriorated bulkhead. Sand bags have been placed behind the bulkhead. However,
it is not an effective method of solving the problem. Since maintenance of the
bulkhead is under your department's authority, please request that the property
owners at the subject sites replace these wood bulkheads in order to protect
their properties and mitigate the causes of flooding in the -area.
