Covenant and Environmental Restriction State of California Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board

The property at 800 Southerland Avenue in Wilmington, California, jointly owned by the Port of Long Beach and the Port of Los Angeles, is subject to a legally binding Covenant and Environmental Restriction that limits its use exclusively to industrial and commercial purposes. This restriction is enforceable and requires prior written approval from the State of California Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board before any ground-disturbing activities may occur, ensuring compliance with state environmental regulations and protecting water quality in the surrounding area including the Dominguez Channel. The covenant was filed through CEQAnet and qualifies for a Common Sense Exemption under CEQA Section 15061(b)(3), as it imposes controls that prevent significant environmental impacts rather than creating them. The restriction is not a procurement contract and contains no pricing, delivery schedules, or federal acquisition regulation clauses; instead, it serves as a regulatory land use tool managed by the Port of Long Beach as the lead agency. There is no estimated contract value, no line items, and no formal procurement process associated with this action. The obligation is administrative and environmental in nature, with oversight and approval authority vested solely in the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board. The Port of Long Beach is responsible for ensuring adherence to the covenant, with primary contact information provided through Allyson Teramoto and Eamonn Killeen. No federal accounting codes, payment offices, invoicing systems, or contracting officer designations are specified, and no socioeconomic or size status representations are required or included. The covenant is recorded in public land records and applies permanently to the bounded property, which is delimited by the Domingquez Channel, East Anaheim Street, Southerland Avenue, and I Street. Submission of the covenant documentation was completed through CEQAnet, with copies filed with the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/Clerk and the Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation in Sacramento, ensuring its enforceability under California law.
