1 Santa Ana River Channel (OCFCD Facility. E01) Lead Agency: Agency: Project Director: Address: Orange County, Public Works, Infrastructure Programs, Capital Programs Sam Ali 300 N. Flower Street Santa Ana Phone: Cell Phone: General Project Information: Name: Description: Santa Ana River Channel (OCFCD Facility. E01) Dredging Project from Pacific Coast Highway to The project site is located in the lower Santa Ana River, County of Orange, in the earthen-bottom reaches extending from the Santa Ana River mouth (Pacific Ocean) to upstream of Adams Avenue. The length of the River to be dredged is approximately 3.5 miles. The project would return the Lower 3.5 miles of the River to its design grade. In order to remove the sediment, some vegetation removal must be performed. Beach compatible material will be deposited within the near-shore littoral zone at the Newport Beach groin fields between depths of -10 and -30 feet MLLW; near-shore or on-shore at Sunset/Surfside Colony; on-shore Seal Beach East Beach; on-shore at several locations in Huntington Harbor; or at a combination of these sites. An upper grade limit for sediment accumulation was established by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in their Operations and Maintenance Manual for this facility. Once sediment deposition exceeds this limit, the sediment must be removed to return the river to its design invert elevation in order to provide the established level of flood protection. The anticipated maintenance frequency for the lower reach is estimated in the Corps O&M Manual to occur approximately once every 18 years. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has now required the OCFCD to remove the excess sediment. Based on a May 2013 bathymetric survey of the Santa Ana River, the estimated maximum potential volume of export for the currently proposed dredge cycle is 1.1 million cubic yards. Goals/Objectives: 1 of 5

2 Santa Ana River Channel (OCFCD Facility. E01) The goals and objectives of the project are to return the Lower Santa Ana River to its design grade and utilize the excavated material for beach nourishment. 30 sediment samples have recently been tested for chemical composition, grain size, and color and the material is suitable for beach placement. The sand can be placed on the beach without having to close the beach to the public. Need: Sediment deposition continues to occur in the Lower Santa Ana River causing the invert to rise. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers failed the Lower Santa Ana River in a periodic inspection and gave the OCFCD two years to lower the grade line to below the established upper grade line. n-compliance with the Corps directive could result in federal disaster relief funding not being approved within the watershed in the event of a damaging storm event. Meets statutory eligibility gates of 2015 IRWM Grant Funding: IRWM Goals: Safely co-manage flood protection and water conservation. Maintain quality of life. IRWM Type OWOW Plan Project Type: Construction Latitude: Project Location: Longitude: Project is construction improvements to Orange County Flood Control District (OCFCD) Facility.

E01) Water banking, exchange, reclamation and improvement of water quality Multipurpose flood and stormwater management programs Watershed protection and management Drinking water treatment and distribution Ecosystem and fisheries restoration and protection Where Benefits Accrue: Jurisdiction: Explanation: Watershed/Su b-region: Explanation: Synergies: Multiple Communities The benefactors are residences and businesses from Cities of Huntington Beach, Westminster, Fountain Valley, Garden Grove, Santa Ana, Anaheim, Orange, and Yorba Linda. Entire Watershed The Santa Ana River Watershed has a drainage area of 67,840 acres. It is within the E Watershed which has a drainage area of 190,654 acres. The project provides significant synergy in that it provides both flood protection and beach nourishment at the same time. The beach is narrowing within the Newport Beach groin fields and needs additional sand protection from large waves. Benefits to Disadvantaged Communities (DAC) and Native Tribal Communities (NATC) 3 of 5
