AI Contract Overview

The San Diego Unified Port District is overseeing a project for the removal of one invasive Mexican Fan Palm tree by San Diego Gas & Electric in National City, California. The removal is necessary because the tree has grown into nearby utility power lines. To mitigate the loss and provide shading, the project includes the replanting of four 15-gallon, moderately drought-tolerant, deciduous Conifer trees within Embarcadero Marina Park South. The removal is scheduled for September 2025 and is expected to take two days, with replanting occurring in Fall 2025. The project is categorized as exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 for existing facilities, as it involves minor alterations without expanding the use of the site. Work will be performed using hand tools, chainsaws, a chipper truck, and a grinder. Because of the limited scope, no significant impacts on air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, or traffic are anticipated, and public access, parking, and streets will remain open throughout the process. The San Diego Unified Port District is responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws regarding stormwater, hazardous materials, and construction demolition debris.

The proposed removal is anticipated to occur in September 2025 and take approximately two (2) days to complete, and the replacement work is anticipated to occur in Fall 2025.

Due to its nature and limited scope, the proposed project would generate a minor amount of vehicle trips and would require limited use of equipment.
