Topography. Geomorphology and soils
Topography. The Long Beach Peninsula exhibits long and low parallel north-south dune ridges🕈 interspersed with shallow xxxxx. The following dune forms are found in this landscape: foredune, deflation plain, sand hummock🕈, blowout🕈, dune ridge, and swale🕈. (Xxxxxxxxx, 1984) From west to east, first there is a broad and gradually sloping ocean beach. The foredune is a ridge of sand parallel to the ocean beach and located just above the limit of ordinary wave action. Behind the foredune is a low-lying deflation plain where interdunal wetlands form at surface elevations of 14 feet National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929🕈 (NGVD29🕈) or lower. To the east of the deflation plain is the historic foredune, a dune ridge. The foredune, deflation plain, and dune ridge comprise the city’s dune area, or dune complex, averaging about 2,000 feet in width. The ocean floor from the shore outward to approximately seven (7) miles is considered the inner (nearshore-shallow) continental shelf🕈 with a relatively flat slope and depths up to 131 feet. West of the inner shelf is the midshelf, an irregular band varying in width from seven (7) to 17 miles, also of a relatively flat slope and with depths of 131 to 656 feet. Beyond the midshelf is a the relatively narrow mesobenthal🕈 upper continental slope with depths of 656 to 2,297 feet, and finally is the bathybenthal🕈 lower to toe of the continental slope with depths of 2,297 to 11,500 feet. The substrate of the inner shelf is sand; the substrate of the midshelf and the mesobenthal is sand and mud with some rock outcropping; and the substrate of the bathybental is mud.

Topography. Altering the existing topography of the Property by digging, plowing, disking, or otherwise disturbing the surface is prohibited, unless Grantee determines such requested action will be carried out consistent with the Restoration Plan and will be carried out in a manner that protects the conservation values. Grantor shall obtain Grantee’s written permission in advance of commencing such action.
Topography. Contractor has visually surveyed the general surface conditions of the Project Site topography and represents that, subject to Unforeseen Subsurface Conditions, the same are sufficient for Contractor to construct the Project and perform the Work. Contractor will be responsible for clearance of the Project Site, including the removal of obstructions. Contractor will be responsible for access road construction as described in the Scope of Work. Contractor shall provide for the procurement of or disposal of, as necessary, all soil, gravel and similar materials required for the performance of or otherwise in connection with the Work. Contractor will provide adequate treatment of and protection against water runoff resulting from Contractor’s and its Subcontractor’s work. Contractor will provide for the collection, treatment and disposal of groundwater resulting from Contractor’s and its Subcontractors’ work.
Topography. There shall be no ditching; draining; diking; filling; excavating; removal of topsoil, sand, gravel, rock, or other materials; or any change in the topography of the land in any manner, unless in accordance with the farm conservation plan for agricultural use on the Protected Property referenced in Paragraph C above.
Topography. 4.4 Drainage
Topography. Altering the existing topography of the Property by digging, plowing, disking, or otherwise disturbing the surface is prohibited, unless Grantee determines such requested action will be carried out consistent with the Restoration Plan and will be carried out in a manner that protects the conservation values. Grantor shall obtain Xxxxxxx’s written permission in advance of commencing such action.
Topography. Development would be clustered on existing prominent terraces to the maximum extent practicable in order to minimize development in steeper areas that would require more grading. Under Alternative 1, 2, or 3A, a substantial portion of the Red Rock waste rock pile area would be preserved in a park, rather than grading its slopes to make it suitable for development. Potentially unstable slopes in the waste rock pile would be graded as necessary to improve public safety. Soil and rock slopes created by blasting (if any) shall be maintained according to the City Heights Draft Environmental Impact Statement Required Mitigating Measures March 25, 2020 2 recommendations of the Geotechnical Engineer. Slope inclinations may have to be modified by the blasting contractor if localized sloughing or rockfalls occur. In order to minimize the potential for erosion from areas where blasting is performed, erosion control measures would be installed as soon as practicable, surface water would be diverted away from blast areas, and slopes would be inspected daily until stabilized.
Topography. Except as permitted under the ARAP or DA Permit, there shall be no filling, excavating, dredging, mining, drilling, removal of topsoil, sand, gravel, rock, minerals or other materials, any dumping of ashes, garbage, or of any other material not required for the Property’s maintenance as a protected natural area, nor granting or authorizing surface entry to the Property for any of these purposes, and no changing of the topography of the land in any manner, excepting activities (e.g., wetland restoration, restorative streambank grading) that are essential for the management of the Property as a protected natural area.
Topography. The Lessee will maintain the general topography of the landscape in its present condition and will undertake no excavation or topographic changes until the Lessor expressly has approved the same in writing.
