Marina Heights Project/Abrams "B" Housing Project

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has issued an amended Incidental Take Permit for TH Sea Haven LLC related to the Sea Haven Phase 5b project, which involves the construction of residential units, paved roadways, and landscaping within a larger 248-acre, 1,050-unit subdivision. The project will permanently impact 2.9 acres of habitat critical to Monterey gilia, a plant species listed as threatened under the California Endangered Species Act. The amended permit expands the scope of authorized activities to include two additional measures designed to minimize and fully offset the impacts of habitat loss, ensuring compliance with conservation requirements. Though the project is situated in Marina, California, the permit is issued by the state agency and not the City of Marina, which serves only as the local lead agency for planning purposes. The project’s environmental oversight is managed by senior state biologists with direct contact provided for regulatory inquiries, and all actions are constrained by the conditions outlined in the amended permit to protect the threatened species.
