AI Contract Overview

The LAX Transpacific Cable Landing project, forecasted by the City of Los Angeles, involves the installation of subsea fiber optic telecommunications infrastructure by Hood 1703, LLC. The scope of work includes constructing four offshore bore pipes extending 4,000 feet via horizontal directional drilling, two beach manholes at Dockweiler State Beach, up to four ocean ground beds, and approximately four miles of open trenched terrestrial conduit connecting the landing site to regional data centers in Los Angeles and El Segundo. The project is planned in two phases, with the initial phase focusing on infrastructure installation and a subsequent phase for the installation of up to four submarine cables and regenerators. Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin with terrestrial installation in April 2026, followed by drilling operations in October 2026, with full site restoration expected by early 2027. The project is currently undergoing environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act, with oversight from the City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works. Key requirements include the implementation of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, an Oil Spill Contingency Plan, and a Drilling Fluid Management Plan. The project also requires extensive coordination with the U.S. Coast Guard, NOAA, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, as well as consultation with Native American tribes regarding cultural resources.

Full Description

The Project consists of undersea (subsea) fiber optic telecommunications cable landing infrastructure that could receive up to four future submarine cable systems and connect this infrastructure to a terrestrial landing site and terrestrial conduits installed along public ROWs to existing data center(s) in the region. The project would be constructed by Hood 1703, LLC, the applicant (Applicant). The Project would include construction at the Dockweiler Beach landing site, along public ROWs, and offshore to install the following components: Four (4) offshore bore pipes using HDD and extending approximately 4,000 feet offshore Two (2) beach manhole (BMHs) installed at Dockweiler State Beach at approximately 400 feet landward of the mean high water (MHW) line to serve as a terminus point for HDD bores Up to four (4) Ocean Ground Beds (OGBs) at Dockweiler State Beach One (1) HDD bore from one BMH to the intersection of Imperial Highway and Vista Del Mar Approximately four (4) miles of open trenched terrestrial conduit route in the Cities of Los Angeles and El Segundo The Applicant proposes to install the landing infrastructure (e.g., BMHs, bore pipes) in one phase, with cable(s) installation occurring in a subsequent phase based on planning timelines, regulatory approval, and installation availability. Once construction is complete, the landing site and conduit along the ROWs to the data center would be restored to pre-construction condition. While no subsea cables are currently proposed to be installed or operated as part of this initial phase of the Project, the Applicant proposes to evaluate the environmental impacts associated with subsea cable installation to be comprehensive. Anticipated offshore Project components include the HDD marine bore pipes described above, up to four submarine cables, and cable regenerators.
