Hi Greg.
I spoke with DWR, WRC, and NMFs. We have all written our comments and recommended to
constructed the pier over the marsh, even if dredging will be required under the boat slips. Anne did not
think your idea to build a living shoreline by relocating the shell cultch and shellfish would work. She
further commented that DMF's stance would be, new dredge of extensive shallow bottom, even
without shellfish, would be grounds for recommending against this, especially because there is an
alternative.
Thank you for your time.

Thanks for forwarding Gregg.
Kim,
We did evaluate locating the proposed facility out on the AIWW adjacent to the southern docks
and even had a set of figures prepared for that. However, after a site visit we noticed the water
depths are extremely shallow and those floating docks actually sit on the bottom at low tide. We
met onsite with DCM and DWR (Katherine and Holley) and reviewed the current plan and they
can confirm the depths. So, dredging would need to be proposed at that location too and the
square footage would actually be greater since we can't utilize the existing dredged channel. With
the shorter pier and reduced dredge footprint that utilizes the existing dredged channel, the
proposed layout is the best option and there are no significant shellfish resources in the dredge
footprint.
Considering this, can you please revise your comments? I would be happy to discuss in a phone
call if needed. Thanks,
