Document Description
The CA Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery was requested by the Sonoma County Sheriff, the Sonoma county Regional Parks Department Harbor Master, and the CA Department of Fish and Game to remove five abandoned commercial vessels from Bodega Bay before Large winter storms threaten to sink the vessels. Four of the vessels are currently being maintained by the harbor master and the Spud Point Marina and one vessel is aground in the middle of Bodega Bay.
The CA Dept. of Resources Recycling and Recovery approved the remediation project on December 10, 2010, under the authority of Public Resources Code (PRC) Sections 48020 et seq. The project is an action by a State regulatory agency, as authorized by state regulations and codes, to restore and protect the environment.
