SAN DIEGO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT – PROPOSED RUNWAY 9 DISPLACED THRESHOLD SDIA is highly developed (e.g., buildings, paved surfaces, ornamental landscaping) and contains few areas with the potential to support wetlands. Virtually all areas that would be developed under the Proposed Action consist of bare earth, paved surfaces, structures or ornamental (low habitat value) landscaping. Review was undertaken for jurisdictional habitats that may fall under Corps jurisdiction pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344), wetland and streambed habitats under California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) jurisdiction pursuant to Section 1600 of the Fish and Game Code, and wetland habitat under California Coastal Commission (CCC) jurisdiction pursuant to Section 30121 of the California Coastal Act. During this review it was determined that there was no habitat that met the criteria for jurisdictional wetlands per the federal Clean Water Act, California Fish and Game Code, or the California Coastal Act. However, the Navy Boat Channel is regulated as a “waters of the U.S.” under Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899. 3.5.4 FLOODPLAINS Executive Order No. 11988 was enacted in order to avoid, to the extent possible, the long- and short-term adverse impacts associated with the occupancy and modification of floodplains and to avoid direct and indirect support of floodplain development wherever there is a practical alternative. The order was issued in furtherance of NEPA, the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, and the Flood Disaster Act of 1973. Floodplains are defined as lowland and flat areas adjoining waters that are subject to a one percent or greater chance of flooding in any given year, i.e. a 100-year flood event. A portion of the APE, where the MALSR extends into the Navy Boat Channel, lies within the 100-year flood zone as delineated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) maps. FEMA Flood Rate Insurance Map (FIRM) 06073C1881F indicates the floodplains for the APE (Figure 3-4). No other flood zones are contained within the APE. 3.5.5 COASTAL AREAS The Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) of 1972 ensures effective management, beneficial use, protection and development of the coastal zone. Coastal Zone Management Programs (CZMPs), prepared by states according to guidelines issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), are designed to address issues affecting coastal areas. Coastal resources are identified in accordance with the California Coastal Act of 1976 (“Coastal Act”; California Public Resources Code Sections 30,000 et seq.). This act, which is consistent with the Federal Coastal Zone Management Act, contains the State’s adopted policies with regard to the protection of coastal resources. In accordance with the California Coastal Commission, the only Federal actions for the FAA that would trigger a certification of consistency with the State’s California Coastal Management Program (CCMP) are the certificates for the operation of new airports. 31 31 State of California, California Coastal Commission, California Coastal Management Program, List of Federal Licenses and Permits Subject to Certification for Consistency.
