South Beach Restoration and Shoreline Access Enhancement Project

The City of Avalon is advancing the South Beach Restoration and Shoreline Access Enhancement Project to combat chronic beach erosion caused by the deterioration of a 40-foot groin wall and wingwall extending from the seawall near the boat launch ramp into Avalon Harbor. The project aims to restore approximately 300 linear feet of shoreline between Green Pleasure Pier and Pebbly Beach Road by replacing the failed erosion control structure, rehabilitating the seawall, boat launch ramp, and beach access stairway surfaces, and importing roughly 6,000 cubic yards of sand to reestablish the beach profile. All work is governed by state environmental regulations under the California Environmental Quality Act, with a Negative Declaration approved as the comprehensive environmental review, eliminating the need for a full Environmental Impact Report. The City of Avalon acts as both the lead agency and contracting entity, with Bob Greenlaw, CIP Director, serving as the primary point of contact. No formal contract value has been disclosed, and no federal procurement structures or FAR clauses apply; the project is administered locally through municipal processes. Payment of administrative fees totaling $3,043.75 has been completed to initiate environmental compliance, but detailed pricing, delivery schedules, inspection criteria, or performance terms are not yet established as the project remains in a planning and pre-award forecasting stage. The place of performance is definitively located on South Beach in Avalon, California, with all work confined to this coastal zone.
