Book Description
A 1:75-scale undistorted hydraulic model was used to determine wave conditions at the entrance to Noyo River and Harbor as a result of an offshore breakwater. The impact of the improvements on long-period wave conditions in the harbor as well as wave-induced and riverine bed-load sediment patterns was evaluated. The model reproduced the river from its mouth to a point approximately 15,000 ft upstream, both Noyo Harbor and Dolphin Marina located on the south bank, approximately 3,400 ft of the California shoreline on each side of the river mouth, Noyo Cove, and sufficient offshore area in the Pacific Ocean to permit generation of the required test waves. A 45-ft-long wave generator, crushed coal sediment tracer material, and an automated data acquisition and control system were utilized in model operation. It was concluded from the model investigation that: a. Existing conditions are characterized by rough and turbulent wave conditions in the Noyo River entrance. Maximum wave heights ranged from 8.5 to 13.7 ft in the entrance for operational conditions (incident waves with heights of. 14 ft or less) and from 12.2 to 15.2 ft for extreme conditions (waves up to 32 ft in height) depending on incident wave direction.

Book Description
Supplement 1 to the Final Environmental Impact Statements for improving the Oakland Outer and Oakland Inner harbor channels. Channels would be widened in some areas and deepened to -42 feet MLLW. Sediment accumulation at the selected in-Bay disposal site and adjacent to Alcatraz Island has required the consideration of other disposal sites and disposal alternatives. The selected plan would remove 6.5 million cubic yards of material from the Federal Channels. An additional .5 million cubic yards will be removed from the berthing areas by the local sponsor. Disposal of the dredged sediment will be at an ocean disposal site to be approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The proposed site is located at a depth of 300' and is approximately 30 nautical miles from the Golden Gate Bridge (haul distance). The SEIS uses the criteria established by the Marine Protection Research and Sanctuaries Act in selecting the appropriate ocean disposal site for use under Section 103 of the Act.

Book Description
Presented is a plan of improvement for the harbor at San Diego, California, was authorized by the River and Harbor Act approved 13 August 1968 (Public Law 90-483, 90th Congress, 2d Session), to provide adequate waterways for access to newly constructed terminals and to meet the growing demand for additional marine-oriented industry. The district engineer now submits a recommended plan of improvement which consists of widening and straightening sections of the north bay channel; deeping and widening the central bay channel; deeping, widening and extending the south bay channel.
