Executive Summary
The top of the berm would be constructed to an elevation of approximately 12 feet above MLLW and
would be flat, with a width of approximately 150 feet. The beach fill would then slope seaward
approximately 150 feet at a slope of 10:1. The North Carlsbad receiver site would be moved back
R
approximately 35 feet to the rip-rap at the back of the beach during final design.

Beach replenishment at the South Carlsbad North site would consist of the placement of dredged sediment
near the Palomar Airport Road intersection with Carlsbad Boulevard, stretching to the south for 2,100 feet
(0.4 mile) near the Encinas Creek outlet. A berm would be constructed to an elevation of approximately
12 feet above MLLW. The berm would be flat with a width of approximately 170 feet. The beach fill
would then slope seaward approximately 100 feet at a slope of 10:1.
Beach replenishment at Batiquitos would involve the placement of dredged sediment from a point
approximately 850 feet southofthe Batiquitos Lagoon, into the community of Leucadia and Leucadia State
Beach, a distance of approximately 1,390 feet (0.3 mile). The northern part of the site is known as
"Ponto." A berm would be constructed to an elevation of approximately 12 feet above MLLW and would
have a width of approximately 110 feet. The beach fill would then slope seaward approximately 375 feet
at a slope of 20:1.
The Leucadia beach fill plan would include creation of a berm of approximately 12 feet above MLLW,
extending seaward approximately 70 feet. The top of the berm would be flat. The beach fill would then
slope seaward approximately 125 feet at a slope of 10:1. The proposed receiver site at the Leucadia site
extends approximately 2,700 feet (0.5 mile) from just south of the Grandview access stairs to Glaucus
Street.
The Moonlight Beach receiver site's berm would be constructed to a height ofapproximately 12 feet above
MLLW. The beach fill would be relatively flat and would extend seaward approximately 130 feet seaward
and would then slope seaward at a slope of 20:1. Toward the north, the slope would extend approximately
150 feet, while at the southern part of the berm, the slope would extend approximately 250 feet. The
proposed receiver site would be approximately 770 feet (0.1 mile) long.
Beach replenishment at the Cardiff site would consist of the placement of dredged sediment along 780 feet
(0.1 mile) of Cardiff State Beach south of the San Elijo Lagoon inlet and Restaurant Row. A berm would
be constructed at this location to an elevationofapproximately 12 feet above MLLW. The beach fill would
be flat and extend seaward approximately 115 feet. The beach fill would then slope seaward
approximately 350 feet at a slope of 20:1.
