The report should describe and analyze the following:
A. That information required in Section 21.11.060(A) which has not previously been reviewed and/or requires up-dating
B. Present extent of the habitat, and if available, maps, photographs or drawings showing historical extent of the habitat area
C. Previous and existing ecological conditions:
1. The history, ecology and habitat requirements of the relevant resources, such as plants, fish and wildlife, in sufficient detail to permit a review of functional relationships (the maps described above may supply part of this information),
2. Restoration potentials
D. Present and potential adverse physical and biological impacts on the ecosystem
E. Alternatives to the proposed development, including different projects and off-site alternatives
F. Mitigation measures, including restoration measures and proposed buffer areas
G. If the project includes dredging, explain the following:
1. The purpose of the dredging,
2. The existing and proposed depths,
3. The volume (cubic yards) and area (acres or square feet) to be dredged,
4. Location of dredging (e.g., estuaries, open coastal waters or streams),
5. The location of proposed spoil disposal,
6. The average grain size distribution of spoils,
7.The occurrence of any pollutants in the dredge spoils
H. If the project includes filling, identify the type of fill material to be used, including pilings or other structures, and specify the proposed location for the placement of the fill. The quantity to be used and the surface area to be covered and any proposed use of the fill area
I. If the project includes diking, identify on a map the location, size (length, top and base width), depth and elevation of the proposed dike(s), as well as the location, size and invert elevation of any existing or proposed culverts or tide gates
J. If the project is adjacent to a wetland or wetland buffer and may cause mud waves, a report shall be prepared by a qualified geotechnical engineer which explains ways to prevent or mitigate the problem
K. Benchmark and survey data used to locate the project, the lines or highest tidal action, mean high tide, or other reference points applicable to the particular project.
