Document Description
The Project involves necessary structural repairs and electrical upgrades to support continued use and function of the Hermosa Beach Pier (Pier) in the City of Hermosa Beach, CA. The Pier is located at 1 Pier Avenue, Hermosa Beach, CA, and is a public resource that provides public access for ocean viewing and recreational fishing. Modifications to repair the existing Pier structure are required to maintain safe public access and function of the Pier, and electrical upgrades are proposed to improve the existing lighting and power at the Pier. The Pier is subject to natural wear due to weather and wave action, and structural repairs to piles, pile caps (bents), and the deck are needed to maintain a safe and operational Pier for public use.
