The proposed wetlands was described in the program EIR, and a mitigation measure required the project proponen~ to consult with agencies responsible for wetlands restoration. Those agencies have recommended that on-site wet.lands restoration be carried out on the proposed site. 2. The establishment and maintenance of these wetlands will not be injurious or detrimental to the surrounding neighborhood in the community. 3. The proposed wetlands is consistent with the City's General Plan. 4. The changes to the Specific Plan brought about by the addition of the wetlands do not conflict with the established policies or regulations of the Specific Plan or the goals, objectives, or policies of the General Plan. Pursuant to Section 15168 of the CEQA Guidelines, a program EIR (87-1) has been prepared and certified by the City of Seal Beach, and this amendment is within the scope of the certified program EIR. 5. 6. A Supple~ental EIR has been prepared which adequately describes the general environmental setting of the project, its significant environmental impacts, and the alternatives and mitigation measures related to each significant environmental effect, and that no additional environmental documentation is needed. --....> Ordinance Number /.:l1f NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Seal Beach does hereby approve the amended Hellman Specific Plan for the Hellman Ranch area, as shown in Attachment "A".

I I I I Ordinance Number ~~~ AMENDMENTS TO SPECIFIC PLAN Attachment A 1. Table II-I is amended per attached, with a reduction shown to a total of 355 single family homes. 2. Exhibit II.l, II.2, II.3, ILI0, IL11, ILl2, ILI3, II.l4 are hereby amended as per attached. Exhibi t ILl shall show a total of 355 single family units. The development project area will include a restored tidal influenced wetlands located generally in the southwest corner of the site, with an approximate size of 37.9 acres. The size of the wetlands is based on a wetlands assessment and restoration recommendation by the Department of Fish and Game. The project proponent shall participate in the preparation of a wetlands restoration plan and submitting this plan to the responsible agencies, such as the Department of Fish and Game, the California Coastal Commission, and the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers. This section provides a general background to this plan1 the final design will depend on a number of factors to be determined, such as hydrology, and is subject to review and approval by responsible agencies. Hydrological factors play an important role in the final design of the wetlands. Factors such as the volume of tidal flow which can be supplied to the site and tidal fluctuations that will occur. The wetlands area will be hydraulically connected to the San Gabriel River via the existing culvert which passes between the intervening cooling water channel and empties into the river through a tidal gate or any feasible means which provides tidal fluctuation. This connection will result in tidal and muted tidal fluctuations at the restored wetlands. Habitats of a tidal wetland can be described in terms of the tidal zones, i.e., the frequency of inundation of various portions by the tidal waters. For the Hellman property wetlands we envision three basic zones or areas. The lowermost zone will be the subtidal area. This area will be at an elevation such that it will always be under water, i.e., below the extreme low tide. On the Hellman property this zone will most likely take the form of relatively narrow channels which radiate into the various portions of the marsh. This subtidal zone may support beds of Eel Grass and serves as a breeding area for some types of fish. It provides a potential foraging ground for birds which feed on these fish, including the endangered California Least Tern and diving ducks. The middle tidal zone is that which ranges from the extreme low tide to the lower of the two daily high tides. In other words, this zone is inundated for a large portion of every day, and is exposed during the low tides. This zone is usually characterized by mud flats, since it is SUbjected to extremes of water and temperature, to which most plants cannot adapt. In the restored Hellman wetlands, we envision this zone as a relatively narrow band of mudflat which borders the subtidal channels. This area supports invertebrates, which bury themselves in the mud, and provides a foraging ground for many wading birds such as Herons, Egrets, and Sandpipers. ' The uppermost tidal zone is the actual salt marsh, which ranges from the lower high tide range to the extreme high tide. This zone supports a variety of salt tolerant plants, ranging from Cord Grass at the lower elevations (if a sufficient tidal prism exists) to Salt Grass in the higher areas, but is perhaps best characterized by the familiar pickleweed. This area will constitute the largest single component of the restored Hellman wetlands. The salt marsh provides habitat to a large variety of birds, including many of the long legged wading birds as well as perching birds such as the endangered Belding's Savannah sparrow. Ordinance Number /:279 , SECTION II LAND USE DEVELOPMENT PLAN II.l LAND USE DISTRIBUTION AND LOCATION The development plan for Hellman Specific Plan divides the I project site into six (6) planning areas. Each planning area is associated with its own specific land uses. Primary land uses within the Hellman SDecific Plan include single-family residential, open space/wetlands, community park, flood control basin and oil production. Table II-l indicates acreage of the various land uses, and permitted number of dwelling units for each of the six (6) planning areas. Section III of the SDecific ElAn sets the precise development starndards for planning areas 1 and 2, and general development standards for planning areas 3 through 7. The general location of all principal land uses is shown on Exhibit II.l, Land Use DeveloDment Plan and depicted in schematic form in Exhibit 11.2, the Illustrative site Plan. All construction within the SDecific Plan area shall conform to exhibi t II .l and to the development standards established in Section III herein.
