Excavate and Repair Potable Water Valve– Harbor Development Permit No. 25-057

The Port of Long Beach is issuing an Emergency Project Harbor Development Permit (HDP No. 25-057) to address a leak in a 20-inch potable water valve located at Pier D Ave within Harbor Planning District 5 - Middle Harbor in Long Beach, California. The scope of work requires the excavation of two 8' x 6' pits to isolate and replace the damaged valve with a new one of substantially the same purpose and capacity. All removed equipment must be disposed of in strict accordance with federal, state, and local environmental and regulatory requirements. The project is classified as a forecast under NAICS code 237110 and has been granted a Notice of Exemption from further environmental review under CEQA Section 15302 and statutory exemptions for emergency projects. Key administrative contacts include Project Coordinator Carolina Avendano from the Long Beach Utilities Department and Tyler Hanks, the Director of Environmental Planning for the lead agency. The project was formally documented on November 10, 2025.
