SUBJECT: Amendment No. 1 to the Contract for Eelgrass Planting and Survey
ISSUE:
Should the City amend the contract with Coastal Resources Management to conduct eelgrass
surveys and to transplant eelgrass into mitigation sites in Newport Harbor?
tI=8 ,I
Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute Contract Amendment No. 1 with Coastal Resources
Management in a substantially similar format to the attached contract
DISCUSSION:
Underwater Eelgrass Survevs
Coastal Resources Management (CRM) has completed underwater eelgrass habitat surveys in
Newport Harbor for the City of Newport Beach Harbor Resources Department. The purpose of
the investigation is to provide updated, detailed maps of eelgrass resources within Newport
Harbor that can be used as a baseline of eelgrass conditions in the Newport Bay ecosystem,
identify potential eelgrass transplant sites, and conduct eelgrass transplants into Newport
Harbor Eelgrass Mitigation Bank areas.
The mapping project updated the results of surveys conducted by CRM for the City of Newport
Beach in 2003 and 2004, which produced the first bay -wide maps of eelgrass. The results of
the 2003 -2004 and the 2006 -07 surveys have been provided in a publicly accessible interactive
map form, and can be found on the City's web site.
These maps have provided City resources management personnel and the public with important
information relative to dock and dredging projects. Because of the extreme rainfall and runoff
into Newport Bay during the storms of 2004 -05, the comparison of the before and after storm
location of the eelgrass beds is critical to the understanding of the cycle nature of eelgrass

PROPOSAL TO CONDUCT REMOTE EELGRASS SENSING SURVEYS IN
NEWPORT HARBOR, CALIFORNIA
Prepared for: Tom Rossmiller, City of Newport Beach, CA,
Harbor Resources Department
Coastal Resources Management, Inc. (CRM) proposes to conduct sidescan sonar surveys
and remote -video surveys in Newport Harbor to map eelgmss habitats located in deeper
areas of the harbor that cannot safely or effectively mapped by using divers. These
surveys are necessary so that the City has a detailed and complete knowledge of eelgrass
bed resources within Newport Bay as part of the Newport Harbor Area Management Plan
(HAMP).
Sidescan surveys have been used since the early 1990s to map sensitive habitats such as
reefs, eelgmss and kelp beds. We have used sidescan sonar to map large areas of eelgrass
within Linda Isle, and through the Lower Newport Harbor Marina for the City of
Newport Beach, with excellent results and will be using this technique for the City of
Morro Bay in early March. Eelgrass beds in outer Los Angeles Harbor were mapped
using remote sensing methods in 2000. A sidescan investigation of the condition of the
Newport Harbor entrance jetties in the 1990's located extensive beds within the channel.
National Marine Fisheries Service subsequently mapped eelgmss beds in wide -open areas
and the channel entrance of Newport Bay in winter 2003.
For this study, Coastal Resources Management Inc. and Nearshore Wetland Surveys
propose to:
(1) Conduct marine biological field studies in Newport Harbor to identify deepwater
eelgrass habitats located between the Harbor Entrance Channel and Balboa Island; and
(2) Prepare a summary report of our field survey findings and a detailed GIS habitat map
that will be included in the City of Newport Beach GIS mapping system and on the City's
website. These tasks are identified in more detail below.
SCOPE OF WORK
TASK 1. CONDUCT FIELD SURVEYS IN LOWER NEWPORT HARBOR
CRM proposes to conduct underwater surveys of Lower Newport Harbor to identify
eelgrass vegetation employing a combination of sidescan sonar remote sensing, high -
resolution underwater video, and ground -truth diver surveys. The survey area is shown
in Figure 1. The survey area extends between the ocean entrance channel and the Balboa
Bridge on the north, and the ocean entrance channel to the Balboa Pavilion/Ferry Docks

on the west. The area will include open water habitat, areas within vessel mooring fields,
and potential eelgrass mitigations sites on the south side of Balboa Island.
CRM will incorporate sidescan sonar technology linked with high - resolution underwater
video and thirdly, site - specific diver - biologist ground - truthing surveys. Large -scale diver
surveys conducted within active navigational channels can present significant diver safety
issues and can be extremely labor - intensive. Limiting underwater time by divers by
using remote sensing techniques (sidescan sonar/underwater video) significantly reduces
diver safety and liability issues in such an active boating environment as the Lower
Newport Harbor Marinas. However, when CRM conducts dive surveys in active harbors
and marinas, CRM also puts a priority on diver safety by utilizing Ocean Technology
Systems (OTS) underwater communications and vessel -to -diver underwater
communications which significantly enhances diver safety in high- traveled regions of
bays and harbors.
It is important to note that remote sensing methods are an approved technique to map
eelgrass as outlined in the Southern California Eelgrass Mitigation Policy (National
Marine Fisheries Service 1991 as amended), therefore, methods employed by CRM and
NWS to map in Newport Harbor will be accepted by the resources agencies.
Phase 1 Field Operations. Coastal Resources Management, Inc. (CRM) and Nearshore
and Wetland Surveys (NWS) have developed a technique that overcomes the limitation
of using sidescan sonar in shallow water areas and in areas where maneuverability is
restricted. The method is based on the use of an Imagenex Sportscan sidescan sonar.
The small towfish is readily accommodated in either a 16 -ft skiff that can operate within
confined marina basins or in a larger 23 -ft vessel in more exposed regions of the survey
area.
The sidescan sonar data are logged using Hypack data acquisition software. Following
acquisition of the data, a mosaic image of the seafloor will be produced Areas of interest
will be documented using a high - resolution underwater color video camera (Ocean
System, Inca Deep Blue Professional Grade Color Underwater Video Camera) that
integrates GPS data and time on the recorded video image. The seafloor mosaic will be
visible on the navigation display, allowing the vessel to be steered to specific targets.
Field personnel will be able to view eelgrass vegetation in real -time as the survey vessel
is maneuvered across the areas of interest. The real -time information is simultaneously
recorded on a Digital Video Recorder (DVR) and will be used later in the laboratory to
verify the sidescan sonar locations and density of eelgrass, and collect additional
information of the types of fish and marine life present within the survey area.

Laboratory Processing of Data. The processing package of the Hypack software allows
for the production of bayfloor mosaics (maps), which prominently displays the location
and extent of eelgrass vegetation. Once the mosaic for each marina basin survey area is
produced, eelgrass habitat will be digitized, areal cover calculated, and further verified as
eelgrass vegetation from the GPS- labeled underwater video records and dive surveys.
From these combined records, final eelgrass habitat maps will be prepared in ArcView
9.2 data format for the City's GIS Department and the Harbor Resources Department.
All of the AutoCAD and GIS produced eelgrass maps can be integrated with the City's
bathymetric maps and dredge plan drawings to provide an overlay of eelgrass habitat vs
areas potentially impacted by Newport Harbor improvements. Amount of eelgrass
habitat, and other sensitive habitats affected by the project can then be calculated using
this method.
Phase 2 Field Dive Operations. It is important to ground -truth and field - verify the
results of the remote sidescan sonar that identify eelgrass habitat obtained during Phase 1
Field Operations. In addition, eelgrass wrion density (a measurement of celgrass density)

needs to be estimated using biologist/diver - survey methods Therefore, a one -day focused
dive survey will be conducted by marine biologists to estimate eelgrass cover and turion
density and collect site - specific marine biological information.
TASK 2. PREPARE PROJECT REPORTS
Based upon the results of the field survey, CRM will prepare a summary field report that
will provide methods, results, and the GIS compatible eelgrass habitat map for the City.
TASK 3: PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Mr. Rick Ware, Senior Marine Biologist and Principal of CRM will be the principal
investigator /project manager for this project. He will be responsible for the timely
execution of field work and project submittals. He will be assisted by Mr. Rick Hollar,
Principal of Nearshore Wetland Surveys (NWS), and Mrrs. Stephen Whitaker, and Tom
Gerlinger, CRM marine biologists. Mr. Ware will attend one project meetings to discuss
results with the City Harbor Resources Department.
PROJECT TIMING
CRM can initiate project tasks within two weeks of receiving a contract and an
authorization to proceed from the City of Newport Beach. We expect that field activities
will be conducted over a period of five days and that draft project reports can be
delivered to the City of Newport Beach within three weeks following the completion of
the field surveys.

Proposal to Produce Eelgrass Habitat Maps and Conduct Eelgrass Transplanting for the
City of Newport Beach, CA.
Dear Mr. Miller:
Coastal .Resources Management is proposing to conduct underwater eelgrass habitat
surveys in Newport Harbor for the City of Newport Beach Harbor Resources
Department.
The purpose of the investigation is to provide updated, detailed maps of eelgrass
resources within Newport Harbor that can be used as a baseline of eelgrass conditions in
the Newport Bay ecosystem, identify potential eelgrass transplant sites, and conduct
eelgrass transplants into Newport Harbor Eelgrass Mitigation Bank areas.
The mapping project will update the results of surveys conducted by CRM for the City
of Newport Beach in 2003 and 2004, which produced the first bay -wide maps of eelgrass.
We will also be mapping two additional areas of Newport Harbor not mapped during the
2003 -2004 survey -the Linda Isle embayment and the east side of Lido Peninsula.
The results of the 2003 -2004 surveys in report form and in interactive, public-accessible
map form can be found at:
h": / /www6.diiy.ngnort- beach. ca. us / website llntemetiveWp /harborm4p.mR.
These maps have provided City resource management personnel and the public with
important information relative to dock and dredging projects. Because of the extreme
rainfall and runoff into Newport Bay during the storms of 2004 -2005, these maps are
now outdated: Consequently, there is a need to update these maps for use by both City
resource managers, and the public who may have to apply for local and state permits to
conduct dredging or dock renovation projects. The location and distribution of eelgrass
is important to document since the City is in the process of preparing the Harbor Area
Management Plan (HAM]?) which will be used in the long -term management of Newport
Harbor.

Our total- not -to- exceed cost estimate is $50,000.00. This cost assumes that final GIS
maps will be produced by the City of Newport Beach GIS Deparhnent, similar to the
project in 2003 -2004. The CRM team will work directly with the City of Newport Beach
GIS department in producing the maps.
CRM looks forward to working with the City again on this important project. Please give
me a call if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
COASTAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT

SCOPE OF WORK
EELGRASS HABITAT MAPPING
Coastal Resources Management will conduct a bay -wide eelgrass (Zostera marina)
mapping project to document the extent and abundance of this seagrass within Newport
Bay between the ocean entrance channel and the De Anza Marsh Peninsula in Upper
Newport Bay.
Field Surveys. Eelgrass vegetation will be mapped using a Global Position System
(GPS) and a team of Coastal Resources Management biologists consisting of a diver and
a surface support biologist. The biologist -diver first will locate the beginning of an
eelgrass bed and mark it with a yellow buoy. The surface support biologist working from
a kayak will then initiate tracking of the biologist diver using GPS technology as he
swims the perimeter of the individual eelgrass bed. Once the diver returns to the
beginning point, the GPS track will be terminated. Eelgrass patches too small to survey
or that are located in difficult areas to obtain a GPS signal (i.e., behind docks /under
piers) will be referenced as a GPS "point' and a size of the eelgrass patch will be
estimated by the diver. The accuracy of the mapping will be approximately one meter
using differential GPS post - processing software from Thales Navigation. This may
decrease however, in back of docks, and in areas where obtaining a GPS signal.
We will also collected information on eelgrass "turion" density, which provides an
indication of habitat cover within the perimeter of the bed. Turions are eelgrass units
consisting of the above - sediment portion of the eelgrass consisting of a single shoot and
"blades" (leaves) that sprout from each shoot (Figure 1). Turion density will estimated'
by the SCUBA - diving biologist counting the number of live, green shoots at the
sediment/shoot interface within replicated 0.07 square meter (sq m) quadrats set between
the shallow and deep area of each sampling site. Initial standardization of counting
methods will be conducted to ensure the accuracy of counts between different team
members.
Fourteen areas of Newport Bay will re- sampled for turion density counts. Sixty,
replicate samples will be counted along a transect in shallow, mid, and deep areas of the
eelgrass bed. The data will then summarized. for each area using graphical and statistical
methods.
Other background information collected during the survey will include general eelgmss
health, eelgrass blade length and width information,, sedimentary conditions (sand or
silt), water visibility, water depth, and plants and animals observed in the eelgrass beds
during the survey.
Data Analysis. Field data will be downloaded into a laptop computer using Geographic
Information Systems Software (Thaler Mobile .Mapping Software, GPS PRO Tracker,
and ARCVIEW. Data files will be.transferred to the City of Newport Beach

Team Members. The primary survey team will include Mr. Rick Ware (B.S. Zoology,
M.A., Biology, CSULB), Mr. Stephen Whitaker (BS. Marine Biology, College of
Charleston, South Carolina, /currently in Masters Program at CSUF); and Mr. Lein
Jenkins (B.S., Biology, James Cook University, Townsville, Queensland, Australia).
These individuals conducted the prior eelgrass habitat mapping project for the City and
have extensive experience conducting eelgrass bed resource surveys and eelgrass
transplants throughout southern California. Mr. Ware will be the principal
investigator /project manager. He has over 28 years of experience conducting marine
biological studies throughout California, and has extensive experience within Newport
Bay.
City of Newport Beach GIS personnel (Mr. Scott Watson and Mr. Ryan Stadlman) will
prepare the final GIS graphics and habitat area calculations based on CRM's field work
similar to the 2003 -2004 eelgrass mapping project. Mr. Tom Rossmiller and Mr. Chris
Miller will be CRM's Newport Beach Project Manager, and will provide logistical
support..
SCOPE OF WORK
EELGRASS MITIGATION BANK TRANSPLANTS
CRM also proposed to conduct eelgrass transplants at up to two prospective eelgrass
mitigation banking sites in Lower Newport Bay for the Harbor Resources Department.
This program will (1) identify two potential eelgrass mitigation sites in Lower Newport
Bay and (2) conduct eelgrass transplants at each site. The selection of each mitigation
site will be made based upon (1) site selection dive surveys at potential locations in
Lower Newport Bay, and (2) recommendations from both the California Department of
Fish and Game and the National Marine Fisheries Service. Some of the sites that were
initially transplanted during 2003 Army Corps and City of Newport Beach Experiment
Eelgrass Transplants will also be given consideration, since the extremely heavy winter
of 2004 and 2005 likely resulted in high mortality of eelgrass that was transplanted at
each of the six experimental sites.
Transplant Methodology and Techniques. An anchor/bundle technique will be used for
the transplant The donor stock material will be assembled into eelgrass bundle units at a
base location such as the 106' Street Beach. Eelgrass bundles will then be transported by
vessel and transplanted to the receiver area by divers.
Eelgrass will be replanted at depths between -1 and -6 ft MLLW along a pre- determined
planting grid. The amount of eelgrass to be transplanted, and the amount to be used as
donor material will be determined once the transplant sites are identified, and once it is
determined how much transplant area is available at each site. We estimate however, that
the transplants will cover a minimum of 25 to 50 square meters of habitat at each site. Each
bundle will consist of 10 shoots of eelgrass. Transplants will be conducted on 1 meter (328
ft) centers.
