Approving the State Lands Lease No. PRC 4006.9 Agreement with the California State Lands Commission; 2. Authorizing the City Manager to execute the State Lands Lease No. PRC 4006.9 Agreement and; 3. Directing the City Clerk to record the State Lands Lease No. PRC 4006.9 Agreement. with the Orange County Recorder BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: On August 18, 1969, the City Council approved Resolution No. 1800 authorizing the execution of a 49-year General Lease — Public Agency Use between the California State Lands Commission and the City of Seal Beach for a 10 foot wide leased area.The leased area is for a 10- inch diameter water line and a 6- inch diameter sewer line on sovereign land that serves the Sunset Aquatic Park (`Park"): See Attachment,B, Exhibit B for the boundary map. The water and sewer line is owned and maintained by the City of Seal Beach. Orange County,acquired the 63-acre Park from the U.S. Navy in 1963. The Park provides restrooms, picnic areas, and recreational space for the public. The Park also includes.a marina with boat ramps and 276 boat slips. The 6-inch-diameter sewer line is currently non-operational. Sewer service for the Park's public restrooms and marina, as well as the Orange County Harbor Patrol, have been redirected from the Seal Beach sewer collection system to the Huntington Beach sewer collection system. However, the City wishes to continue to maintain the sewer line as an emergency backup system. Prior to any planned future use, the City will inspect the line, make any necessary repairs, and apply for an amendment to the lease. Agenda Item E With the lease expiring on August 27, 2017;.the City of Seal,Beach applied for a new lease. Staff has been working with the State Lands Commission to renew the proposed lease agreement. At the June 22, 2017 State Lands Commission meeting, the Commission approved the 25-year State Lands Lease No. PRC 4006.9 Agreement: See Attachment D for the State Lands Commission Agenda Item. The proposed Lease Agreement has Special Provisions and General Provisions which act as conditions the City must follow for the entire length of the Lease Agreement. The General Provisions are standard items that are typical to all agencies entering into a State lands Lease. The Special Provisions are conditions;specific•to the City of Seal Beach. For example, the lease requires the City to verify the depth of the existing water and sewer lines. This type of verification:is performed bya burial depth survey. The survey shall be conducted before. August 28, 2019, and subsequent surveys every 5 years on or before August,28` ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: There is no environmental impact related to this item. LEGAL ANALYSIS: The City Attorney has reviewed and approved as to form. FINANCIAL IMPACT: As part of the terms and conditions of the proposed State Lands Lease, the Lease requires a bathymetric depth survey in 2019 and subsequent surveys every 5 years. The cost to perform the survey is estimated at approximately $5,000. The cost for the survey will be budgeted for in the FY 2018-2019 Budget. In addition, in the proposed State Lands Lease, the State reserves the right to impose a lease fee at any time during the lease. It is staff's opinion that the State would impose on a fee based on the intended use for this utility purpose and not for any revenue generating use. This is boiler plate with standard language in all newer State Land Leases. RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 6747 1 . Approving the State Lands Lease No. PRC 4006.9 Agreement with the California State Lands Commission and 2. Authorizing the City Manager to execute the State Lands Lease No PRC 4006.9.Agreement; and Page 2 3.

LEASE TERM: 25 years, beginning August 28, 2017. CONSIDERATION: The public health and safety, with the State reserving the right to set a monetary rent if the Commission finds such action to be in the State's best interests. SPECIFIC LEASE PROVISIONS: • Lessee is required to conduct a'burial depth survey to ensure that minimum burial depth is consistent with as-built plans specified depth of 5 feet. The first survey shall be conducted on or before August 28, 2019, with subsequent,surveys being conducted every 5 years. • Should an emergency situation occur that requires the lessee to immediately return the sewer pipe to an operating condition in order to maintain public health and safety, lessee shall notify lessor of the change in operational status and within 30 days shall submit an application for an amendment to authorize pipe operation. -1- CALENDAR ITEM NO. C60 (CONT'D) STAFF ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION: Authority: Public Resources Code sections 6005, 6216, 6301, 6501.1, and 6503; California Code of Regulations, title 2, sections 2000 and 2003. Background and Lease:.History: On August 28, 1968, the Commission authorized Public Agency Permit No. PRC4006.9, a 49-year Public Agency Permit—Right-of-Way Use, to the Orange County Harbor District (District) for the construction, operation, and maintenance of a 6-inch-diameter sewer line and a 10-inch-diameter water line in Anaheim Bay near the Sunset Aquatic Regional Park (Park), city of Seal Beach , Orange County (Calendar Item 5, August 28, 1968). On January 7, 1970, the.Commission authorized the assignment of PRC 4006.9 from the District to the City of Seal,Beach (City). (Calendar Item C45, January 7, 1970). This Permit will expire on August 27, 2017. The City is now applying for a General Lease— Public Agency Use to allow for the continued operation and maintenance of the two pipelines on State land. Orange County acquired the 63-acrePark from the U.S. Navy in 1963. The Park provides restrooms, picnic.areas, and recreational space for the public. The Park also includes a marina with boat ramps and 276 boat slips. Although located within the corporate boundaries of the City, the Park is segregated'from the main city area by a wildlife refuge and naval weapons station. The lease area contains a.6-inch-diameter non-operational sewer line along with a 10-inch-diameter water line buried parallel and in close proximity to the<sewer'line. The current burial depth of the two pipelines is unknown; the last known depth is based on the:as-built plans dated 1968, prepared by VTN, a private engineering firm, that show a burial depth of 5 feet. However, the lease;requires that a burial depth survey be conducted on or before August 28, 2019, and subsequent surveys every 5 years on or before August 28. The 6-inch-diameter sewer line is currently non-operational. Sewer service for the Park's public restrooms and marina, as well as the Orange County Harbor Patrol, have been redirected from the Seal Beach sewer collection system to the Huntington Beach sewer collection system. However, the City wishes to continue to maintain the sewer line as an emergency backup.system. Prior to any planned future use, the City will inspect the -2- CALENDAR ITEM NO. C.6O (CONT'D) line, make any necessary repairs, and apply for an amendment to the lease. The 10-inch-diameter water line is still in operation and provides water services to the Park's public restrooms, drinking fountains, and marina, as well as the Orange County Harbor Patrol'and the naval weapons station adjacent to the Park. Public Trust and State's Best Interests Analysis: The proposed lease would allow for,the City's continued use and maintenance of the two pipelines to support public health and safety by providing running water and, if needed, emergency sewer facilities to the public Park. The proposed lease would also continue water service to the Naval Weapons Station. Based on the as-built plans provided by the City, dated 1968, the two pipelines were buried approximately 5;feetbelow ground and currently have no known impact to navigation, fishing, recreational boating, or other Public Trust purposes at this location,and,are'.therefore not inconsistent with Public Trust needs and values at this location at this time Additionally, the'water pipeline provides:'fresh:water services to the marina and enhances.Public Trust-consistent uses of the adjacent waterway such as recreational boating. The proposed lease is limited to a 25-year term and,does not grant the lessee exclusive rights to the lease premises. Upon termination of the lease, the'lessee;may be required to remove all improvements from State land. The proposed lease requires thelessee to insure the lease premises and indemnify the State for any liability incurred as a result of the Lessee's activities thereon. •Climate Change: Climate change impacts including sea-level rise, increased scouring of the channel floor from wave,activity, storm events, and flooding are not limited to the open coast. The lease area is located within Anaheim Bay in Seal Beach and may be vulnerable to the impacts of sea-level rise. The lease area contains anon=operational 6-inch-diameter sewer line and a 10-inch- diameter water line buried parallel and in close proximity. Increased scouring of the channel floor over time caused by climate change could expose these pipelines. The leaseiarea is located near the_Park, which may also be vulnerable to climate change impacts; such as, flooding and storm surge events -3- CALENDAR ITEM NO..C60 (CONT'D) because the Park may be similar in elevation to the adjacent Huntington Harbour that is built at near sea-level elevation. The Seal Beach National Wildlife,Refuge wetlands and Boise Chica wetlands nearby could act as natural buffers to storm surges and lessen flood risks. Compared to year 2000 levels, the region could see up to 1 foot of sea-level;rise by the year 2030, 2 feet.by 2050, and possibly over 5 feet by 2100(National Research Council 2012). As stated in Safeguarding California (California.Natural.Resources Agency 2014), climate change is projected to increase the frequency and severity of natural disasters related to flooding, drought, and storms(especially when coupled with sea-level rise). In tidally influenced waterways such as Anaheim Bay, more frequent and powerful storms;can result in increased:flooding conditions and damage from storm-created debris. Climate change and sea-level rise will further influence coastal areas by changing erosion and sedimentation.rates. Beaches, coastal landscapes, and near-coastal riverine areas will be exposed to increased wave force and run up, potentially resulting in greater beach or bank erosion than previously experienced. Conclusion: For all the reasons:above, Commission staff believes the issuance of this lease is consistent with the common law Public Trust Doctrine, will not substantially interfere with PublicTrust+needs at this location at this time and for the foreseeable term of the proposed lease, and is in the State's best interests. OTHERPERTINENT INFORMATION: 1. The proposed action is consistent with Strategy 1.1 of the Commission's Strategic Plan ta deliver the highest level of public health and safety in the production, preservation, and responsible economic use of the lands and resources under the Commission's jurisdiction. 2.
