Title

Patrol Boat Pier and Floating Dock, USCG Sector San Diego Harbor Drive Facility

Description

Under the Proposed Action, the USCG would construct a 242-foot long pier and floating dock to the east of the existing pier and floating dock for use by patrol boats. The floating dock would consist of three main components: pile-supported grated fixed pier, grated gangway, and concrete floating dock. The pile-supported grated fixed pier would be supported by two steel H-piles and the fixed pier itself would be 5 feet wide by 46 feet long. It would be at a fixed elevation and would lead from the shore to the grated gangway. The grated gangway would be hinged on one end and would be 5 feet wide by 36 feet long. It would join the pile supported grated fixed pier to the floating dock. The dock would be 10 feet wide by 160 feet long and made of concrete. It would float with the changing tidal elevation. The pier/floating dock would be constructed perpendicular to shore and be located between the existing adjacent pier/floating dock (to the west) and the sea plane ramp (to the east). The fixed pier and gangway would extend far enough from shore to span the eelgrass (Zostera marina) bed that runs parallel to the southern shoreline of the Facility. Utilities including sewage, potable water, electricity, and telecommunications would run through the floating dock. The proposed pier/floating dock would be of similar size and scale as the existing pier/floating dock to the west.
