The Los Cerritos Wetlands Authority (LCWA) will host the first public workshop for the next phase of restoration planning for Los Cerritos Wetlands at 6: 00pm on March 28 at the Mary Wilson Library in Seal Beach.
This workshop will build on the previous work completed for the Conceptual Restoration Plan and will culminate in a Program Environmental Impact Report (EIR).
This Program EIR is the next step in the LCWA’s efforts to provide a comprehensive restoration framework for the Los Cerritos Wetlands. Past work completed by the LCWA includes identification of existing opportunities and constraints for restoration, public access and interpretation, and the Los Cerritos Wetlands Conceptual Restoration Plan (LCW CRP). The Final LCW CRP was adopted by the LCWA Board of Directors in August 2015.
Using information contained in the Final LCW CRP, this current exercise will design an optimized restoration design for the entire Los Cerritos Wetlands complex. This alternative will be studied, and potential impacts analyzed in the Program EIR.
