Amendment of a General Lease – Public Agency Use – Lease 7082

The California State Lands Commission is administering an amendment to a 10-year General Lease for Public Agency Use, identified as Lease 7082. This action involves the seasonal placement and use of two swim platforms at Butterfly Beach, located on sovereign tide and submerged land in the Pacific Ocean near Goleta, Montecito, and Summerland in Santa Barbara County. The County of Santa Barbara Community Services Department is the proponent for this project. The amendment is categorized under a Class 3 Notice of Exemption, as it is determined that the placement of these small structures will result in only minor physical changes to the environment and will not alter existing activities in the area. Administrative oversight is managed by the California State Lands Commission in Sacramento, with Robin M. Tuohy serving as the primary environmental scientist and Grace Kato as the Acting Executive Officer. No specific financial terms or delivery schedules were provided in the available documentation.
