This Document is an Operating Agreement (hereinafter, "the Agreement")
executed in the City of Rancho Palos Verdes (hereinafter"the City"), which is
effective as of this 15th day of March , 2005, by and
between the City and the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy (hereinafter
"PVPLC" or"the Conservancy"), a non-profit organization. This Agreement
supercedes the prior agreement between the City and the Conservancy, which
was entered into on June 5 , 2001.
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY
The Preserve, (hereinafter"the Premises" or"the Preserve") is described
in Exhibit "A," which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
The Preserve is located at the terminus of Forrestal Drive.
2. PURPOSE
The purpose of the Agreement is to authorize the Conservancy, jointly
with the City, to manage and maintain the Preserve subject to the following:
A. The City has completed the Forrestal Management Plan
(hereinafter " the Plan"). The Plan specifies a variety of
management objectives and functions that are to be completed in
the future. The Plan is hereby incorporated herein by this reference,
and a copy is attached hereto as Exhibit "B". The goals and
objectives defined in the Plan include four broad categories of
activities that will be described as: 1) administration 2) public
works/public safety; 2) habitat enhancement/vegetation
management and 3) recreation management.

B. The following are the two entities and their roles involved in the
management of the Forrestal Preserve:
1. The City of Rancho Palos Verdes owns the property, and is
the lead entity for all public works projects, planning-related
issues, environmental review, and educational programs
through Los Serenos.
2. The Conservancy has a management agreement with the
City and is the lead entity for habitat
enhancement/vegetation management, recreation
management (except for educational programs through Los
Serenos), and some administrative tasks, including the
preparation of an annual report to the City Council.
3. The Conservancy may create an Advisory Board consisting
of persons who represent various groups that utilize or are
interested in the Preserve. The purpose of the Advisory
Board is to advise the Conservancy about its management
of the Preserve. The existence of the Advisory Board shall
not in any way alter the rights, responsibilities, or duties of
the City and the Conservancy as set forth herein.
C. The City and the Conservancy shall manage and improve the
preserve in the manner set forth in Chapter 3, Plan Implementation,
of the Plan.
D. The Preserve shall be used only for natural open space and
passive recreational uses. These uses shall include the right to
improve the property consistent with the purposes of the Plan and
this Agreement. Use of the Preserve by the Conservancy for any
purpose not directly involving the provision of services as detailed
in this Agreement or the administration thereof is prohibited unless
specifically authorized in advance in writing by the City or its duly
authorized representative.
E. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as limiting the City's
ability to mitigate offsite habitat loss on the Preserve, provided that
the Conservancy shall perform or supervise all such habitat
mitigation or enhancement, in accordance with the Conservancy's
scientific and ecological standards, which shall remain subject to
review and revision by the responsible resource agencies, and
further provided that mitigation may only occur in those portions of
the Preserve that have degraded, or are devoid of, coastal sage
scrub habitat. Any habitat mitigation that is performed pursuant to
this Paragraph E shall be performed at a reasonable cost and is to
800905.4 2
be paid for by the City or the entity that caused the environmental
impacts that are to be mitigated.
3. TERM
A. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 12 (Termination), and
Paragraph 13 (Surrender of Premises), the initial term of this
operating agreement shall be for twenty-five (25) years
commencing on the date of execution by the City.
B. The Conservancy may request renewal of the Agreement for an
additional twenty-five-year term by sending a written request to the
City one year prior to the expiration of the Agreement. Such
renewal shall be reviewed and approved by the City Council of the
City, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The one-year lead
time for requesting renewal is required in light of the grant-based
funding that will be required to administer the Premises and the
additional time that is needed to apply for and obtain the necessary
funding and grants.
C. Upon receipt of such written request for renewal, the City will
review the Conservancy's performance and its compliance with the
terms of this Agreement. A satisfactory review shall be the primary
basis, but not the sole determinant, for renewing the Agreement.
D. Following the expiration of the Agreement, and until such time as
either the City or the Conservancy terminates Conservancy's use of
the Premises, or until such time as the Agreement is extended for a
new term and executed by both parties, the Conservancy's use of
the Premises shall be on a month to month basis upon the same
terms and conditions as are specified in this Agreement, except for
the term. Either party upon ninety (90) days written notice to the
other party may terminate such month to month use and
occupancy.
4. CONSIDERATION
No rent is required to be paid by the Conservancy to the City for the use of
the Preserve. Likewise, no compensation is to be paid by the City to the
Conservancy for the Conservancy's services. It is understood and agreed that
the mutual obligations of the parties, which are set forth herein, are the
consideration for this Agreement. It is recognized that the activities of the
Conservancy will inure to the benefit of the City and its residents and to the
general public, since the City does not have the resources and staff to undertake
the maintenance, operation and improvement of the Preserve, which will be
performed by the Conservancy, as well as the environmental education programs
800905.4 3
•c r
and passive recreational activities that will be provided or enhanced by the
Conservancy.
5. HOURS AND USE OF THE PRESERVE
A. Hours of Operation
The Preserve shall remain open to the public from sunrise to sunset daily,
or any other schedule designated by the City Council. The City shall post a sign
at the entrance to the Preserve stating the hours when the Preserve is open to
the public.
B. Assignment
Except as expressly authorized by the City, the Conservancy shall not
sublease or license the Preserve to any other organization for any purpose
without the express written approval of the City.
C. Use of the Preserve
The Preserve may be used for other City purposes or by other City
groups, such as the Docents, provided such uses are compatible with the
purposes of the Preserve, as set forth herein and in the Plan. The Conservancy
shall coordinate use of the site by City and non-City groups. A group is defined
as twenty-five or more individuals. Nothing herein shall be construed to imply
that the use of the Preserve by individuals or groups of fewer than twenty-five
people will be restricted or will be required to obtain Conservancy approval prior
to entering the Preserve.
The Conservancy is authorized to issue day-use permits to groups for use
of the Preserve only for compatible recreational or educational activities at no
charge to the user. Any group must agree to hold the City and the Conservancy
harmless from any liability arising from its use of the Preserve.
D. Development
All proposed uses for and development of the Preserve shall be consistent
with the Plan or any subsequent, mutually agreed upon amendments approved
by the City and the Conservancy.
The Conservancy shall not make, nor permit to be made, any alteration,
modifications or improvements to the Preserve outside the scope of the Plan,
including the re-routing of approved trails, nor construct any structures on the
Preserve without first obtaining the written consent of the City. The Conservancy
must submit all proposed plans to the City for review and written approval prior to
any work being performed that is outside the scope of the Plan. Once approved,

actions contemplated under the terms of this Agreement, the
Conservancy shall be the responsible party and will secure, or
cause to be secured, the necessary administrative approvals from

responsible for obtaining permits or authorizations, or consulting
with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service or other designated
agency for mitigation efforts relating to off-site actions that are not
undertaken by the Conservancy.

reason and at any time after providing the other party with a ninety (90) calendar
day advance written notice. However, if either party contends that the other party
is in breach of this Agreement, the non-breaching party shall provide written
notice thereof to the other party. If the breaching party fails to cure the breach

1. INTRODUCTION
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes is located on the Palos Verdes Peninsula on the
southwest tip of Los Angeles County. The City exists in a very special setting
comprised of 12.3 square miles of land and 7.5 miles of scenic coastline. The unique
topography of the Palos Verdes Peninsula formed over millions of years of
submerging and lifting from the Pacific Ocean. Approximately fifteen million years
ago, the Palos Verdes Peninsula was submerged under the Pacific Ocean. The first
emergence of the Peninsula, when the area became an island, occurred about three
million years ago and coincided with the Ice Age. This island sank and re-emerged
several times before being joined to the mainland after the ocean receded from the
plains of Los Angeles. The forming of the Peninsula has resulted in the unique
terrace configurations and natural settings observed today.
One of the natural beauties of the Peninsula is the 160 -acre Forrestal Property. The
Forrestal Property contains one of the City's best stands of undisturbed coastal sage
scrub, which serves as habitat for the federally protected California gnatcatcher
(Polioptila californica californica) and as habitat for ocean milk vetch (Astragalus
trichopodus var. lonchus), the host plant for the Palos Verdes blue butterfly. In order
to preserve the site's natural habitat while providing passive recreational
opportunities to the residents of Rancho Palos Verdes and the general public, the
City of Rancho Palos Verdes purchased the Forrestal Property in December of 1996
with funding from several sources: the Los Angeles County Regional Park and Open
Space District, the California Wildlife Conservation Board, and the State Coastal
Conservancy. Historically, this area was once mined by the Livingstone Truck and
Material Company, which ceased its operations in 1956. During the next decades,
several residential development projects were proposed for the property, with a
project for 42 homes approved during the 1980's. That project contemplated
significant changes to the topography that would have dramatically changed the
appearance of the site. However, with the City's purchase of the property, that
threat of development no longer exists.
After purchasing the Forrestal Property, the City Council formed a Forrestal Sub-
committee assigned with the task of preparing a plan to guide the maintenance and
management of the property consistent with the habitat preserve and passive
recreational park envisioned by the City. The Sub -committee was comprised of
members from the City's Recreation and Parks Committee, the City's Equestrian
Committee, the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy, the Los Serenos de
Point Vicente docent members and City Staff. The Forrestal Sub -committee spent
approximately one year preparing this Management Plan, which was subsequently
reviewed and approved by the City's Recreation and Parks Committee, the Finance
Advisory Committee, and eventually adopted by the City Council.
On June 5, 2001, the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes adopted the
Forrestal Management Plan and entered into an agreement with the Palos Verdes
Peninsula Land Conservancy for management of the Forrestal Nature Preserve.
1-1
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
The Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy had played a major role in
identifying funding opportunities and in negotiating the acquisition of the Forrestal
Property. The agreement signed in June 2001 accepted the Conservancy's offer to
manage the property on the City's behalf. Under the agreement, the Conservancy
will utilize its expertise and volunteers to undertake the day-to-day management of
the Preserve consistent with the shared recreational and conservation goals for the
property, while the City will continue to oversee the maintenance of the Preserve.
This document, the Forrestal Management Plan, is intended to guide the
management of the property toward the habitat preservation and recreational goals
envisioned when the property was acquired, and to enhance this valuable public
asset for habitat and passive recreation purposes. In order to oversee the
implementation of the Forrestal Management Plan, in September 2001, a Advisory
Board was formed, comprised of representatives from the Palos Verdes Peninsula
Land Conservancy, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, and community members.
The community members selected to serve on the Board represent various view
points, such as a local homeowner's association representative, an equestrian
representative, a natural resource/habitat representative and a trail expert.
The Board meets on a monthly basis and serves in the capacity of a formal advisory
body for the implementation of this Management Plan. Since the Committee will
modify the recommendations for management as work continues and knowledge is
gained about the Property, amendments to this Plan can be expected. Any
amendments will be reviewed and approved by the Rancho Palos Verdes City
Council.

ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
2. GOALS, PURPOSE, AND USE
The general principles behind the Forrestal Management Plan are:
1. To ensure preservation of the significant natural habitat assets present at
the Forrestal Nature Preserve;
2. To allow passive recreational opportunities on the Preserve; and,
3. To enhance or restore disturbed portions of the Preserve.
2.1 Goals and Objectives
The foregoing principles are translated into the following specific goals:
1. Preserve and restore the natural habitat of the Forrestal Property.
The focus of this goal will include preservation of existing significant habitat and
plants including the coastal sage scrub plant community and the host plant for the
Palos Verdes blue butterfly (Astragalus trichopodus var. lonchus). To achieve this
goal, removal of invasive plants will be undertaken followed by restoration to
natural habitat through replanting of native plants.
2. Provide passive recreational opportunities appropriate for persons of a wide
range of abilities.
This goal includes maintenance and enhancement of trails so that persons of all
abilities can enjoy this public space and the natural experiences available at the
site. Trails will be improved, or designed and constructed to provide different
levels of difficulty as appropriate for the topography and potential habitat impacts.
3. Construct barriers and/or implement access restrictions in areas with steep
cliffs and/or stability problems.
This goal encompasses defining areas of safety concern, determining the
appropriate control mechanisms, and implementing safety enhancing measures.
4. Resolve drainage issues on the site.
This goal aims to implement appropriate drainage controls throughout the
Preserve, including the use of erosion control on the trails. Additionally, the
Quarry Bowl area, including the stream that enters the Quarry Bowl, should be
addressed as deemed necessary.
5. Periodically monitor the property to create a history of the
preservation/restoration work and the results of those efforts.
2-1
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
This goal aims at the creation of an ongoing record of the property and the
restoration activities that have been undertaken. This activity will include annual
inspections of the Preserve and documentation of the changes over the course of
the year. This will include photo documentation from fixed photo points so that
progress can be measured over time.
6. Provide informational and directional signs on the property to effectively
direct recreational users throughout the site, and minimizing the size and
number of signs in order to maintain the natural appearance of the property
This goal recognizes the need for well planned and informative signs that will
enhance the recreational users' experience at the site, but also realizes the need
to minimize signs to maintain the natural feeling of the area to the greatest degree
possible.
7. Provide educational opportunities for students and the general public
regarding the unique and important plants, geology, animals, and birds that
inhabit the Preserve.
The focus of this goal is to continue educational opportunities within the Preserve
including Los Serenos de Point Vicente Docent led tours of the site. Educational
opportunities that develop an understanding of the unique assets and natural
habitats that the Forrestal Preserve contains will be encouraged.
8. Discourage uses of the property that result in environmental degradation.
This goal reinforces the need to balance potential recreational use of the property
with the natural habitat restoration goals of the management plan. The Forrestal
Management Plan will preserve the surrounding environment and natural habitat
by prohibiting activities that will result in damage to the resources of the property.

' action that results in a permanent change to the Preserve. Maintenance and
repair of trails, habitat restoration, signs, and other minor changes included in
the Plan are not projects.
I2. Improvement Project Review Process
' Possible improvement projects will be considered in the following two ways:
A. Advisory Board Projects — The PVPLC will maintain a list of projects
' consistent with the proposed Management Plan implementation in
priority order. This list will be reviewed and approved by the City
Council as appropriate for the property, generally as part of the Annual
' Report.
Members of the public (Eagle Scouts, etc.) may submit ideas or
' requests for projects not included on the list. These proposals will be
considered by the Board, and added to the list or denied.
1 3-5
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
If the Board feels that a proposed project is a desirable improvement
that is not consistent with the Management, Plan, the PVPLC or the
City can write an amendment to .the Management Plan, which will then
need to be reviewed and approved by the City Council before the
project can be added to the list.
B. Public Works Projects - The City Public Works Department will identify
projects necessary to improve drainage, stability or safety on the
project.
3. Other Projects
For any other projects proposed for implementation, the PVPLC will work with
Advisory Board members, and other outside experts and project proponents to
produce a Project Description (PD). This description will include the following:
• Project parameters including a location map at a scale sufficient to identify the
impact area of the project;
■ Description of need for the project
■ Identification of location of vegetation and/or sensitive species that may be
impacted by the project
• Budget and funding source for the work (volunteer, time is an acceptable
source)
• Project schedule
• Projected maintenance requirements
• Project materials
The Project Description shall be reviewed by the Advisory Board.
The PVPLC will make a recommendation regarding the amount and level of
biological review, if any, to be conducted by a qualified biologist approved by the
Department of Planning, Building and Code Enforcement and the PVPLC. If a
review by a qualified biologist is recommended, any recommendations of that expert
will be incorporated into the PD before the project moves forward.
The Department of Planning, Building and Code Enforcement will make a
determination regarding the amount and level of review, if any, by the following:
• City liability
■ Review by the Public Works Department
• Review under CEQA
• Review by streambed permitting agencies
The Advisory Board will participate in any review effort for the project.
3-6
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005

3.7 Funding
IThere are a number of funding sources that should be explored to determine the
possibility of funding both the initial and ongoing work on the Forrestal property. The
1 following is a brief description of three possible funding sources.
In the past, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes has worked closely with a variety of
I Federal and State Government organizations to pursue and obtain funds for a
number of comparable projects. Although most government agencies supply the
necessary forms used to apply for grants, it is imperative to follow each agency's
I instructions when applying for money. It is equally important to adhere to the
published timeline for the application process.

1. Foundations
Foundations are another possible source of funds for the work at Forrestal.
Foundations differ from governmental agencies in that they have varied criteria for
awarding grants.
2. Corporate Philanthropy
Funding could be obtained from the private business sector. Many major
corporations set up their own philanthropic foundations to assist non-profit
organizations. These kind of gifts, while numerous and varied, are often more
difficult to locate.
3. Charitable Donations
Charitable donations from local residents are another possible source of funding.
Funding from tax-deductible charitable donations to the PVPLC can be used toward
the ongoing maintenance of the Forrestal Nature Preserve.
3.8 Volunteer / Educational Opportunities
1. Volunteer Opportunities
Los Serenos de Point Vicente Docents, a volunteer organization of the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes, leads pre -arranged organized hikes on a year-round basis.
The hikes generally last two hours and usually include a tour of the Ladera Linda
Discovery Room. The tours can be modified to suit a specific group's age, hiking
ability, or area of interest such as merit badge requirements, geology, fossils, etc.
Currently, the majority of pre -arranged, educational hikes are for scout or school
groups.
There are no regular published times for tours; a volunteer docent -coordinator
monitors a City -operated hike line and coordinates the hike schedule with hike
leaders, City staff, and the visiting group. Groups range in size from 10-60.
Additionally, volunteers will be needed for the Educational Trails Unit to educate
users of the Preserve to be responsible trail users. A training program will be
required of ETU volunteers (see Chapter 7 for more detail).
Volunteer efforts may also include trail maintenance and trash removal. Such
volunteer efforts are routinely performed by scouts and other organizations that
conduct community services.
2. Educational Opportunities
3-9
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
The Forrestal Preserve is an extraordinary resource for education and provides an
excellent opportunity to improve public awareness and appreciation of the species,
habitat, and natural environment of the preserve. Educational efforts can
contribute to improved protection of this valuable resource and should be
encouraged.
Los Serenos and PVPLC currently provide guided hikes through the Preserve as
well as other educational programs. Other organizations having specific ecological,
biological, wildlife, and plant expertise such as the California Native Plant Society
(CNPS); Audubon; Endangered Habitats League; and California Invasive Plant
Council (Cal IPC) should be encouraged to provide educational programs in the
preserve.
,Benefits of education programs in and about the Preserve include:
• To introduce the public to the natural resources of the Preserve and to
promote the enjoyment and appreciation of those natural resources.
• To provide accurate and up-to-date information about the flora, fauna, and
ecology of the Preserve and related issues.
• To foster an understanding of ecological relationships between species;
seasonal and climatic adaptations of local native plants and wildlife; variations
and characteristics of the different vegetation communities within the
preserve; habitat needs; potential impacts to habitat and wildlife; and other
topics.
• To provide a range of educational resources ranging from a basic introductory
appreciation level to a level of more sophisticated detail and understanding of
the natural resources in the Preserve.
• To motivate people to volunteer to assist in the management and care of the
natural resources of the Preserve.
• To encourage residents surrounding the Preserve and recreational users in
and around the Preserve to make responsible choices in their own
landscaping and activities that may affect the Preserve.
• To provide the public with an accessible rationale for decisions that are made
in habitat management for the Preserve.
• To encourage biological and ecological research and continuing education.

4. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
The 160 -acre Forrestal Nature Preserve contains one of the City's best -stands of
undisturbed natural habitat. This chapter describes the biological character of the
site in terms of flora and fauna. Furthermore, the biologic condition of the site is
discussed in terms of restoration and preservation.
4.1 Existing Conditions
The vast majority of the Preserve is populated with native vegetation comprised
dominantly of coastal sage scrub habitat. Although the site has been disturbed in the
past by mining activities, much of the site was left undisturbed and is now home to
some of the best coastal sage scrub in the City and to a number of animal species
that rely on this unique plant community. The Resource Inventory section that
follows, details the plant communities and the significant species that have been
documented on the Forrestal Property.
In addition to the coastal sage scrub, there is southern cactus scrub to the west of
Intrepid Drive and on the upper slopes, as well as a disturbed area with ruderal
vegetation and annual grassland at the southeastern corner of the property. This
disturbed area abuts Forrestal Drive and the neighboring residential development to
the east.
Although the quality of the natural habitat on the property is very good, there remain
areas of invasive plants which should be removed from the site. The most
significant invasive plant is fennel (Foeniculum vulgare), which is not native to
California. Significant stands of this invasive exist in the lower southeastern corner of
the property, and smaller stands exist in other parts of the property. In addition to
the fennel, there are small pockets of other invasives including iceplant, garland
daisy, mustard, castor bean and pampas grass.
The Forrestal Property contains a stream that trickles at the surface almost year
round. The stream ends in the northwestern quarry bowl area where the water
percolates into the ground. Although there are some non-native plants within the
riparian areas, restoration efforts have removed many of them. Native riparian
vegetation, such as willow (Salix lasiolepis), and giant wild rye grass (Leymus
condensatus), occurs in the canyons.

1 Most of the information contained in this section was compiled from the maps and documentation
prepared by and for the City of Rancho Palos Verdes in conjunction with the preparation of a Natural
Community Conservation Plan.

ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
In addition to the previously listed plants, a number of other plant species either
occur or are likely to occur on the site. A listing of these species is contained in
Appendix A of this plan.
In the vegetation map prepared by and for the City of Rancho Palos Verdes in
conjunction with the preparation of a Natural Communities Conservation Plan, the
majority of the vegetation on the Forrestal Property is characterized as coastal sage
scrub, which is a plant community comprised of low, soft -woody subshrubs to about
1 meter in height. The coastal sage scrub community in that map is further
categorized based on the dominant plant in a given area, as follows:
• Artemisia Dominated Scrub
• Eriogonum Dominated Scrub
• Salvia Dominated Scrub
• Encelia Dominated Scrub
• Baccharis Dominated Scrub
• Rhus Dominated Scrub
As indicated in the ,NCCP mapping for this area, the main differentiations present on
the Forrestal Property are the Rhus Dominated and Artemisia Dominated
communities, with a significant portion of the site categorized as undifferentiated
coastal sage scrub indicating that there is no single dominant plant. It should be
understood, however, that the NCCP mapping was not done to a level of detail
where dominant species were determined for all vegetation communities.
In addition to the cage scrub plant communities, there is a small pocket of southern
cactus scrub identified just to the west of Intrepid Drive. This plant community is
characterized as )ow -density scrub with succulent shrubs consisting primarily of
prickly pear species and coastal cholla, with a limited presence of the plants found in
the coastal sage scrub community (see Appendix C).
A more detailed vegetation map will be compiled as basis for future vegetation
management and restoration projects.

other animal species either occur or are likely to occur on the site. A listing of these
species is contained in Appendix B of this plan.
The above species of animals rely on the coastal sage scrub and/or southern cactus
scrub plant communities, and are an integral component of this dwindling
ecosystem.
4.3 Areas of Preservation
As discussed in the prior sections, a majority of the Forrestal Property is populated
with high quality coastal sage scrub (CSS), and therefore requires little remedial
work other than ensuring that the stands are not degraded. Through trail
maintenance and efforts to keep users of the property on the trails, impacts to the
existing CSS should be minimal. Additionally, as discussed in Section 11 — Annual
Inspection, ongoing monitoring of the site and identification of appropriate future
preservation measures should achieve the preservation goals.
The northeastern section of the property (above and beyond the Quarry Bowl) and
the area following along the City of Rancho Palos Verdes' shared boundary with
Rolling Hills have low occurrences of invasive vegetation, however, they should be
monitored for the potential occurrence of invasives such as Euphorbia terracing. The
4-4
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
lower areas of the property (on a pseudo plateau above Forrestal Drive) and the
portion to the west of Intrepid Drive include patches of invasive materials. The high
quality CSS that exists in these areas should be preserved and invasive plants
removed, as discussed in the following section.
Appendix C includes a map that identifies the rough boundaries of areas that should
be restored, and all other unmarked areas are those which should be preserved.
This appendix will be updated over time as additional detailed information becomes
available.
4.4 Areas of Restoration
The Forrestal Property is largely vegetated with high quality CSS, which requires
little or no restoration or revegetation. However, some areas of the site contain
invasive plant species. In order to bring the property back to its natural condition,
these invasive materials should be removed, and where necessary, the area should
be replanted with native materials.
The information available at the time of the drafting of this plan does not contain the
detail necessary to definitively establish all areas that require removal of invasive
materials. However, significant stands of fennel exist in the southeasterly portions of
the property (south of the Quarry Bowl and west of the intersection of Hightide Drive
and Oceanridge Drive), and iceplant has been noted on the eastern side of the
Quarry Bowl Trails south of the Quarry Bowl itself.
As part of the ongoing management of the property, detailed information on the
areas in need of restoration will be compiled, and integrated into the implementation
plan for completion of the restoration activities. A plan will be prepared for proposed
restoration projects, to include the exact areas of restoration, what should be
removed, and what (if any) replacement materials should be planted. Any replanting
should be completed in a manner that minimizes the need for irrigation, and takes
advantage of the seasonal precipitation patterns to the greatest degree feasible.
The vegetation map in Appendix C identifies the rough boundaries of areas that
should be inventoried and reviewed for potential restoration activities. This appendix
will be updated over time as additional detailed information becomes available.
4.5 Collection Policy
Collection of specimen material must be tightly controlled on the site due to the
potential impacts to biological resources. The following policies (as shown in
Appendix D) shall apply:
u Collecting of rocks, minerals, fossils and bones on a recreational basis is
allowed, with the restriction that people can only remove what they can carry
in their hands. Reporting of significant finds to the City or the PVPLC is
4-5
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
required, and . items of archeological, mineralogical, historical or
paleontological importance must be turned over to the Point Vicente
Interpretive Center. Commercial and/or large-scale removal of materials is
prohibited and will be controlled by staff and volunteers. Collection activities
must not disturb plants or wildlife.
❑ Collecting of plant material or flowers is generally forbidden due to its
potential impacts to plant reproduction and on fauna which may be dependent
on the plants for food and habitat, and due to the potential impact on soil
erosion and geological stability. Collecting of seeds and cuttings may be
permitted only with the written permission of the City and the PVPLC.
❑ Research on and collection of insects and birds may be permitted only with
the appropriate agency permits and the written permission of the City and the
PVPLC. All entities shall receive a copy of the research results.

5. CULTURAL RESOURCES
The history of Rancho Palos Verdes goes back much farther than the days of El
Rancho de los Palos Verdes. There are no written records that document man's
activities during these times, often erroneously called "pre -history." The only records
that exist are uncovered from archaeological sites. Through careful excavation of
archaeological sites, information may be obtained that provides insight on earlier
times. Through the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), and the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA), archaeological sites are to be considered resources that may be adversely
impacted by a project.
5.1 Cultural Resources
Southern California has had human residents for at least 10,000 years. Preliminary
archaeological researches on the Palos Verdes Peninsula have identified a number of
sites, some more than 5,000 years in age. The Forrestal Property lies within a larger
region identified as an archaeologically sensitive area in the Rancho Palos Verdes
General Plan. Significant Native American artifacts have been found in Abalone Cove
and other sites in Rancho Palos Verdes; San Pedro and the harbor area --previously
an extensive wetlands/estuary--were relatively heavily populated, according to early
historical accounts, and it is not unlikely that prehistoric artifacts may be found on the
Forrestal Property. Over the last two centuries, historical ranching, whaling, farming,
quarrying, and other subsistence and commercial activities have been pursued in the
vicinity of the Forrestal Property, and may have left physical traces on the site.
Management policy regarding cultural resources on the Forrestal Property should
address the issues of balancing public access and safety with protection of cultural
resources; sensitivity to groups whose cultural remains may lie within the property;
criteria for evaluating proposals for archaeological research and its impacts on
cultural, biological, and geological resources, and area hydrology.
5.2 Site Archaeology
A "cultural evaluation" of the Forrestal Property, consisting of a review of archival
records and a systematic walkover examination, was conducted by A.V. Eggers as
one component of a 1979 Environmental Impact Report. No archaeological resources
were reported on the property. The 1979 site survey was unable to systematically
examine all of the parcel, due to the particularly dense vegetation in areas, such as
the Northeast corner of the property, which was cited as being "relatively attractive as
a potential Indian campsite" because of the proximity of fresh water and lithic
resources, and salient landscape features (numerous sites across Southern California
have been identified on or near bluffs, ridges, and other strategic viewpoints). The
1979 report does not address historic cultural resources (i.e. dating since Juan
5-1
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
Rodriguez Cabrillo's arrival during 1542-43), which might include artifacts introduced
in the course of ranching, whaling, commercial shipping, farming, mining and other
activities.
5.3 Site Degradation
Around 1920, the Livingstone Truck and Material Co. used the site for quarry material,
primarily basalt. Some of the basalt taken from the quarry was used in building
breakwaters around Long Beach Harbor. The quarry was closed in 1956. The mining
activities created a range of slope conditions, which include near vertical walls in some
areas.
After mining ceased, a number of developers conducted extensive geological tests
and surveys for the purpose of building residential tracts. No houses were ever built
in the area. In 1992, the City was granted Measure "A" Funds, in addition to other
funding, to purchase the Forrestal property to be designated as open space. The City,
along with the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy, began negotiations to
purchase the Forrestal property from Diamond Brothers Developers. Ownership of
the property was transferred to the City in December of 1996.
Because of developments during the 20th century, particularly the operation of the
quarry site, much of the site has been seriously degraded as a potential cultural
resource. Nonetheless, there are extensive areas of the property which do not appear
to have been substantially impacted by quarry operations, geologic borings, landscape
grading, plowing, discing, or other potentially destructive activities.
5.4 Cultural Resource Management
While reconstruction of local and regional history is an important goal, it cannot be
achieved haphazardly; there is at present no compelling reason to aggressively seek
and recover cultural resources. The highest priority should be to minimize the risk of
degradation or destruction of any cultural resources which may exist on the parcel.
Cultural resources on the Forrestal Property should be managed passively, given the
intended use of the site as passive open space, and the fact that active search
techniques, such as excavation, can significantly reduce the informational value of
artifacts by removing them from, and often destroying, their context and associations.
Guidelines should be established to:
A. Prevent unintentional impacts on cultural resources.
B. Identify and consult appropriate archaeological, cultural, and legal authorities in
conjunction with any proposed impacts or modifications of the property.
5-2
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
C. Develop criteria for evaluating proposals for legitimate archaeological research
as well as its probable impact on cultural, biological, and geological resources,
area hydrology, and public access and use of the property.
Except in the case of critical/emergency operations requiring immediate action, any
proposed activities or operations involving significant modification of undisturbed (i.e.
non-quarried)areas, especially any operations likely to disturb the subsurface of areas
of potential archaeological significance, must be conducted in accordance with all
applicable laws and regulations, as established by appropriate counsel prior to
undertaking the proposed action.
Archaeological research methods vary substantially in their impacts on cultural, biotic,
pedological, hydrological and geological resources, and on public access and use.
Remote sensing (e.g. from airplanes or satellites) is benign; surface reconnaissance
and the use of relatively nonintrusive technologies such as ground -penetrating radar,
metal detectors, and electrical conductivity sensors, involve a moderate level of impact;
and excavation may have major impacts. Any research proposal should describe, in
detail, sampling strategies and likely impacts. No excavation or other high -impact
activities should be permitted unless there is significant evidence from minimally -
intrusive remote sensing or surface reconnaissance to justify the impact.
Any requests/proposals for research within the Preserve should be evaluated in terms
of the qualifications of ,the investigators; the goals, objectives, and methods of research,
including sampling strategies; the availability of resources sufficient to complete their
search in a timely matter; impacts on cultural, biotic, and other resources, and public
access and use ofl thero ert . The evaluation of proposals should include
p p Y
consultations with thq City of Rancho Palos Verdes, representatives of the Tongva/
Gabrielino tribe, the California Native Heritage Commission, and other relevant
organizations. Any intrusive research should include consultation with a trained
Tongva/Gabrielino site monitor and/or other appropriate representatives of impacted
groups.

6. GEOLOGY, HYDROLOGY, AND MINERALOGY
The Forrestal Nature Preserve is the product of complex geological forces and
significant human impacts, the combination of which raise safety and access issues
regarding management and use. There are fundamental conflicts between the
competing goals of optimizing public access and use, alleviating safety hazards, and
preserving/restoring native habitat. The following chapter addresses, in order, natural
conditions and resources, historical modifications/impacts, geological hazards,
hydrological hazards, remediation options, and management recommendations.
6.1 Natural Conditions and Resources
The geology of the Palos Verdes Peninsula is dominated by a northwest -trending,
doubly -plunging anticline, the core of which was uplifted during the Pleistocene epoch.
The foundation material is Mesozoic Catalina schist, overlain particularly during the
Miocene epoch by Monterey Formation elements, including Altamira shale, Valmonte
diatomite, and Malaga mudstone. Miocene volcanism introduced basaltic materials as
well, causing metamorphism of some adjacent rock and also depositing ash. The
volcanic materials were degraded and compacted in many areas to form layers of
impermeable bentonite clays between other rock strata. Soils around the peninsula are
typically expansive clays which absorb moisture and expand when wet, then contract as
they dry out.
The Forrestal Parcel shares the general features of the peninsula. The dominant
geological feature is an anticlinal fold axis running parallel to the face of the quarry;
there are several subsidiary folds, which generally have steep dip points around the
folds. Elevations on the parcel range from 280 feet along Klondike Canyon on the
western boundary to 1200 feet in the northeastern section. Near -surface geological
strata are characterized as basalt/volcanics (Tb) and Altamira shale (Tma), the latter
composed of interbedded tuff, bentonite, clayey siltstone, shale, silicious shale, fine-
grained dolomite, and minor deposits of sandstone. The Altamira shale ranges from 19
to 80 feet in thickness. Basalt/volcanic materials increase upslope, and are up to 300
feet thick. As a result of uplifting, there are three distinct areas of fluvial terrace
deposits, with marine deposits as well at the base. Surficial deposits of soil, slope wash,
talus, and alluvium reach a maximum depth of about 55 feet along the lower channel of
Klondike Canyon.
Surveys suggest that there are several ancient landslide areas on the parcel, above the
historic quarry areas. There are no significant seismic faults. One USGS blue line
stream flows across the property. As a result of deposition from mineral -bearing
groundwater, dip joints and other fractures are typically filled with barite or dolomite, and
Tess commonly with gypsum or clay. Sulfide -bearing rocks are prevalent in subareas of
the parcel, notable under the degraded stretch of Forrestal Drive. Crystalline materials
such as quartz, barite and dolomite are found in quantities that attract recreational
6-1
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
collectors, but are generally not sufficient for commercial development. Quantities of
phosphatic rock, diatomite, and silicious limestone ("Palos Verdes Rock") are negligible.
Although oil has been extracted from as near as three miles to the north, there is none
at the Forrestal Parcel.
6.2 Historical Modifications and Impacts
The 160 acres of the Forrestal property lie north and west of Forrestal Drive, less than a
mile from the coastal bluffs overlooking the Pacific. The site has a diverse topography
that is a result of both natural and human. processes. Forrestal was formerly known as
the Goode and Goode parcel.
The Forrestal Parcel has been significantly altered during the 20th century, in particular
as a consequence of the operation of the Livingston Quarry, which extracted basalt from
the 1920s until 1956. The primary quarrying area was along what is now the western
extension of Forrestal Drive; roughly 500,000 cubic yards were also removed from the
Quarry Bowl area in the eastern portion of the property. Blasting operations contributed
to destabilization and degradation of remnant basaltic materials and adjacent
sedimentary strata, and increased their permeability. Waste materials from the quarry
were used on site as fill, or to construct working surfaces. Additional grading, including
introduction of certified compacted fill, was completed in 1969 for development of the
Ladera Linda School athletic fields.
Recreational activities, particularly the use of off-road motorcycles, have denuded some
areas and contributed to erosion problems. Among the consequences of these historic
modifications are geological and hydrological hazards, which are discussed in the two
following sections.
6.3 Geological Hazards
The Forrestal Preserve is subject to a variety of natural geological hazards, some of
which have been exacerbated by human activities in past decades. Although there are
no seismic faults on the parcel, and no major risk of liquefaction, the area is
nonetheless vulnerable to stresses originating on major faults in the surrounding region
of Southern California. The Newport -Inglewood Fault, among others, is capable of
generating significant accelerations with the potential for impacting the Forrestal
property. Landsliding is a regional concern due to the existence of seaward -dipping
sedimentary strata with weak shear strength, which in many areas are undercut at the
base by wave action. Landsliding characteristically occurs above impermeable
bentonite clay strata, when heavy rainfall has saturated overlying expansive clay soils
and rock strata, and lubricated the bentonite layers. Major seismic events can also
trigger landslides. There are several areas of ancient landsliding on the Forrestal
Preserve, and some minor recent slides in the Quarry Bowl area; several significant
slides have occurred adjacent to the property in recent decades, notably the Klondike
6-2
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
1
Canyon, Flying Triangle, and Portuguese Bend landslides to the immediate northwest
and west.
' The recent slides in the Quarry Bowl area are believed to have resulted from the
removal of anchoring materials in the course of quarry excavations. In general, the
' presence of more stable basaltic intrusions reduces the likelihood of sliding for the less
stable Monterey Formation materials; The installation of dewatering pumps has helped
stabilize the area of the Forrestal Parcel immediately adjacent to Klondike Canyon.
Quarrying activities on the Forrestal Parcel have created another set of problems,
particularly rockfall hazards. Geotechnical studies have identified incipient failure blocks
typically 2 to 4 feet thick, 10 tol 5 feet long, and 10 to 20 feet deep where the steepness
and height of quarry walls have induced tension cracking, often magnifying fracturing
degradation associated with quarry blasting operations. While the possibility exists for
toppling or sliding failure, triggered perhaps by seismic events or heavy rainfall, the
' potential for large scale rockslides has been judged by City consultants to be low to
negligible. While large-scale failure is unlikely, ongoing small-scale raveling is evident,
and poses a potential hazard, albeit one difficult to compute with any reliability. Because
the quarry walls in many areas exceed the angle of repose of the component materials,
and are subject to surficial degradation as a consequence of the expansion and
contraction of soils and rock strata, small-scale rockfall is inevitable. Loose rocks on the
quarry faces which range up to 225 feet in overall height, up to 100 feet in sheer vertical
faces also present something of an attractive nuisance problem with rock climbers, who
may attempt to use unstable rocks as handholds or footholds. Similarly, hikers who
approach the rim of the main quarry or Quarry Bowl may find insecure footing, and risk
1 falling.
In addition to the Quarry Bowl rock -fall concern, the area along and at the end of
Forrestal Drive to the western edge of the property has the potential for rockfall.
Furthermore, the terrace drains located along Forrestal Drive are undermined and have
the potential to collapse. These concerns can be addressed in various ways, each of
which would include different costs and different impacts to the site and to trail usage.
As a precautionary measure, it is advised that the trail segments in these areas be
temporarily closed from public use with the installation of warning signs.
1 6.4 Hydrological Hazards
Hydrological concerns on the Forrestal property center around runoff and related issues
of ponding and groundwater. There is one blue line stream on the parcel, (although
there is some question as to whether it is fed wholly from natural sources, or
significantly augmented by domestic sources). Quarrying operations and subsequent
modifications of the land surface have altered both surface and subsurface flow,
interacting with geological conditions affecting the stability of soil and rock strata. The
only significant ponding occurs in the Quarry Bowl, where surface drainage from roughly
80 acres of land upslope has been obstructed, and as a consequence, runoff collects
6-3
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
until it either evaporates or percolates into the ground. Percolation has also been
intensified as a result of the quarry's use of explosives which fractured and degraded
the basalt formations and increased their permeability.
It is believed that the Quarry Bowl ultimately drains into Klondike Canyon, at or below
the toe of the slide. Groundwater surveys have generally not detected saturation in
borings to 75 feet on the site; a boring in the northwest corner of the parcel, near the
Klondike Canyon slide, found groundwater at depths of 81 to 98 feet. South of the
parcel, in lower Klondike Canyon near the beach, water has been found at depths of 66
to 96 feet. Degradation of the Forrestal road surface and adjacent concrete retaining
structures is in part linked to surface and groundwater flow; water transports and
dissolved sulfide deposits, reacting to form sulfuric acid, which degrades the asphalt
and concrete.
6.5 Remediation Options
During the extended period when residential development projects were proposed for
portions of the Forrestal parcel, a number of remediation strategies were presented to
address the hazards discussed in previous sections. Although many of them were
intended specifically as elements of residential development plans, they nonetheless
merit mention here.
The most substantial remediation proposal involved extensive grading over two million
cubic yards of cut and fill to alleviate both geological and hydrological hazards. 810,000
cubic yards of the total would have consisted of grading of residential sites, but the bulk
of the operation would have been remedial grading to address geological and
hydrological hazards by removing over a million cubic yards from steep slopes and
unstable areas, and using the resultant cut material as strategically placed fill to improve
surface drainage and stabilize potential slide areas. This estimate was based on the
assumption that the slope needed to be reduced to at least 1.5:1 gradient in order to
achieve the angle of repose of local geological materials and thereby adequately
alleviate geological hazards. The more comprehensive grading proposal above
addressed slope and drainage issues in both the western area of the parcel along the
Forrestal Drive extension, and in the Quarry Bowl in the eastern area of the parcel.
Alternative grading proposals have been submitted concentrating only on the Quarry
Bowl in the eastern section of the parcel. The City Geotechnical Engineer determined
that a minimum of 400,000 cubic yards of fill material would be required to buttress a
landslide block on the northwest slope of the Quarry Bowl, and eliminate the ponding
area to prevent it from recharging the water table. The developer's engineer
subsequently concluded that it would require a minimum of 95,000 cubic yards of fill in
the Quarry Bowl to eliminate ponding, provide surface for installation of drainage control
facilities, and achieve a 3:1 slope gradient (the maximum gradient not requiring drainage
benches by code); the city geologist, as previously noted, has indicated that a 3:1 slope
gradient would not adequately alleviate geological hazards.

ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
Other proposals to reduce the risk of Iandsliding and associated hydrological hazards
have included the installation of groundwater monitoring/dewatering wells; installation of
drains and berms to direct runoff toward storm drains; and intensive planting of native,
xeriphytic vegetation (with an irrigation system in some proposals) in order to stabilize
soils, reduce erosion, and remove groundwater by plant transpiration. To mitigate
rockfall hazards, installation of catchment fences or berms to catch falling debris has
been proposed. The costs, benefits and other impacts of these proposals are difficult to
assess.
Insofar as the parcel is no longer designated for residential development, the present
discussion does not anticipate a need to prevent damage to residential properties or
residents; and, by the same token, this discussion does not anticipate the availability of
developer resources to cover the costs of extensive hazard mitigation. While potential
geological and hydrological hazards are serious considerations, within the framework of
the present plan for management of passive open space and wildlife habitat they must
be weighed against costs, habitat impacts, and impacts on recreational use of the site.
Extensive grading would carry a substantial price tag, and would require a considerable
investment of city staff time and resources in reviewing plans and inspecting their
execution in order to ensure compliance with relevant codes, rules, and regulations of
the city and county, the South Coast Air Quality Management District, the state
Department of Fish and Game, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and other entities.
Any grading on site would probably necessitate contracting biological, archaeological
and paleontological monitors. Grading would generate significant amounts of dust and
other pollutants (CO, NOx, SOx, and reactive organic compounds) as well as noise and
traffic (it was estimated that the 2 million cubic yard grading proposal would require
approximately seven months, working five days a week from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., to
complete).
Erosion control on graded surfaces, and revegetation, would be additional
considerations in conjunction with grading. In addition to construction costs, any
catchment facilities for water runoff or falling rocks would require ongoing monitoring
and maintenance, and periodic removal of debris and sediment; to accomplish these
ends, access routes for personnel and equipment would also need to be built and
maintained. In evaluating the geological hazards associated with rockfall from
steepslopes, the city's consulting firm Moore and Taber reviewed the historical
performance of steep slope cuts on the Forrestal parcel and elsewhere on the peninsula
(cuts at Mainsail Drive; along Palos Verdes Drive South near Point Vicente; on
Hawthorne Boulevard near RPV city hall; and the "Douglas Cut" on Palos Verdes Drive
West in PVE). While these cuts vary in age, both the Douglas Cut and the Point Vicente
cut (also referred to as the "miniature Douglas Cut") have been in place since prior to
the 1933 Long Beach earthquake, and neither incorporated any drainage or other
control measures. There is no record of significant rockfall or other geological failure at
any of the sites from either the Long Beach earthquake or any subsequent tremors.
Similarly, the review found relatively little erosion from any of the steep cut surfaces.
6-5
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
The great preponderance of tallus at all sites consisted of soil -to -gravel -sized material.
The Forrestal cut slopes have accumulated some rocks up to 12 inches in diameter,
and a rock two feet wide was observed at the base of one of the other cuts. The report
concluded that the cut slopes were relatively stable, and that the potential for Targe
scale rock slides is low to negligible.
Particularly in light of the prioritization of habitat preservation and restoration, any
hazard mitigation strategies need to be assessed in terms of their potential impact not
only on listed and candidate species but also on overall habitat quality (as defined by
Natural Communities Conservation Plan/NCCP criteria).
6.6 Management Recommendations
Geological and hydrological conditions in the Forrestal Parcel are complex and pose a
number of potentially significant hazards. Any management plan will entail costs and
benefits not only financial, but aesthetic, biological, legal, etc. The challenge is to
balance hazard reduction along with optimization of: (1) recreational access and use,
and (2) habitat preservation and restoration. In view of the clear costs and unclear
benefits, it is recommended that no grading measures be undertaken at this time. The
risks of property damage or bodily harm from Iandsliding or rockfalls on the parcel are
relatively low, and can be conveyed to site users by appropriate signage and/or
installation of fencing: The impact of grading on listed and candidate species and
habitat, as well as o,n user access, air quality, noise, etc., would be substantially
negative. Steep slopQ hazards can be reduced by such management strategies as (1)
restricting rock climbing and (2) keeping trails away from high risk areas at the base of,
or atop,steep slopes.
Again, in view of significant costs and ambiguous benefits, it is recommended that no
measures be undertaken to modify surface or groundwater flow. The present ponding
area in the Quarry BpwI enhances the habitat for many species of wildlife, including
large numbers of migratory birds. The USGS-designated blue line stream that drains
into the Quarry Bowl would potentially complicate efforts to modify the drainage, as
federal and state agencies would have to be consulted. Construction of surface
drainage facilities, or groundwater monitoring/dewatering wells would impact the habitat,
recreational access, and aesthetics, without clear-cut benefits and would require
periodic maintenance. Additionally, research of potential landslide agravation has
concluded that impacts from this water source are speculative, as there has been no
indication of accelerated movement in the past and that the dewatering wells in the
Klondike Canyon area west of the Forrestal property are relatively low in production.
Further, the costs of a study to definitively answer this question would be significant as
groundwater flow patterns would need to be determined which would require many
monitoring wells and the disturbance appurtenant to their installation. Since no
substantial stability threat has been demonstrated or discovered to date, it may be
advisable to leave the drainage characteristics of the site as they are rather than impact
the natural features of the property.

ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
The cross drains on the slope adjacent to Forrestal Drive are in a state of disrepair and
are undermined in various locations. These drainage facilities must be repaired, or
replaced with alternate drainage controls; given the slopes involved the costs for these
repairs could be significant.
In addition to the improvements to the cross drains on Forrestal, further improvements
are recommended for the slopes off Intrepid Drive. In areas that cannot be repaired,
trail routes; as indicated in Section 7, will be re-routed to maintain trail segments.
6.7 Collection Policy
Collection of specimen material must be tightly controlled on the site due to the potential
impacts to soil erosion, geologic stability, and biological resources. The following
policies (as shown in Appendix D) shall apply:
■ Collecting of rocks, minerals, fossils and bones on a recreational basis is
allowed, with the restriction that people can only remove what they can carry in
their hands. Reporting of significant finds to the City or the PVPLC is required,
and items of archeological, mineralogical, historical or paleontological importance
must be turned over to the Point Vicente Interpretive Center. Commercial and/or
large scale removal of materials is prohibited and will be controlled by staff and
volunteers.
• Collecting of plant material or flowers is generally forbidden due to its potential
impacts to plant reproduction and on fauna which may be dependent on the
plants for food and habitat, and due to the potential impact on soil erosion and
geological stability. Collecting of seeds and cuttings may be permitted only with
the written permission of the City and the PVPLC.
• Research on and collection of insects and birds may be permitted only with the
appropriate agency permits and the written permission of the City and the
PVPLC. All entities shall receive a copy of the research results.
Trail layout should seek to minimize impacts to erosion -prone areas, and should
incorporate water -diversion barriers and other design/layout strategies to reduce
erosion along trails. The management plan should include regularly scheduled
monitoring of significant geological and hydrological conditions and features, both for
inventory purposes and for feedback and refinement.

7. TRAILS
For years, the general public and the City's Recreation and Parks Department have
used the Forrestal property and its existing trails for recreational purposes and
organized hikes with the permission of the owner. After the City assumed ownership
of the Forrestal property in 1996, the trail system was reviewed for safety purposes,
and maintenance repairs were completed to continue the ongoing recreational use
of the site. On a regular basis, the City's docent organization, Los Serenos de Pt.
Vicente, conducts organized hikes on some of the existing trails.
As part of the Forrestal Management Plan, this chapter is dedicated to the
preservation and maintenance of a network of trails. The Advisory Board has
reviewed the existing trails in use on the property with the goal of creating a
comprehensive trail system that would provide public access to the Preserve for
passive recreation. Furthermore, the goal was to create a trail system that would
leave large contiguous areas of habitat undivided in order to reduce detrimental
edge effects and disturbance to wildlife and its habitat.
The Advisory Board determined that there are existing trails that are generally
consistent with the trail alignments identified for the Preserve by the City's
Conceptual Trails Plan, including a series of trails that are part of, or connect to, the
Palos Verdes Loop Trail. These trails are retained as the basis for the trail network
within the Preserve presented in this section of the Forrestal Management Plan.
Other trails currently in use by the public were added to the recommendation, in
order to identify a functional trail system for the Preserve. Since there is a long
record of shared uses on the site by different user groups without serious conflict or
safety issues (See Appendix G, "Survey of Trail Use at Forrestal Nature Preserve"),
many of the trails were designated for multiple uses. Figures 7.1 and 7.2 show the
trail map and uses approved by the City Council. The current status and condition;
restrictions on usage; scheduled or identified mitigation and upgrade projects; etc.
are presented for each trail in the Trail Status Report, in Appendix E. This appendix
will be updated annually by the Advisory Board and included in each Annual Report
submitted by the Conservancy to the City.
The implementation of the trail system described in this Plan will eventually result in
a managed trail network. A project description will be prepared and reviewed as
spelled out in Chapter 3, Plan Implementation, for any project that is determined to
be necessary for trail safety and usability.
The City's Conceptual Trails Plan in use today was approved by the City Council on
January 22, 1990, and revised by the City Council on December 6, 1991 and
September 7, 1993. The purpose of the Conceptual Trails Plan is to identify the trail
opportunities within the community, so that the acquisition and development of new
public trails, through new development proposals, public works projects, and
voluntary efforts can be integrated into the City's existing public trails network. The
7-1
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
development of the Forrestal Management Plan will implement the Forrestal
component of the Conceptual Trails Plan.
7.1 TRAIL GUIDELINES
All of the trails that are included in the Management Plan are existing trails. The
goal of the management effort is to provide safe trails for visitors to the Preserve and
to minimize impacts to habitat. The trails should be managed for use by all age
groups.
Trail use designations have considered slope and safety factors, as well as the
potential for erosion. The trails should be maintained in a manner that best uses the
natural topography, provides the most comfortable hike, and provides access to
open areas and vistas while avoiding impacts to sensitive natural areas. The route
'and configuration of a trail should avoid disruption of any native vegetation, habitat,
or wildlife, as identified in the Natural Conservation Communities Plan (NCCP). The
following discussion outlines the design elements required to maintain the existing
trail segments:
A. Tread and Trail Clearing Width
Trail widths should be the minimum that is practical for the designated uses. Trails
should not be widened solely to accommodate multiple uses. No trails should be
widened unless there is compelling evidence that widening is need for safety and
can be accomplished with the least possible damage to habitat.
Tread and trail clearing limits should not exceed three (3) feet in width or +/-
eighteen (18) inches from tread centerline. Turn -out or passing areas should not
exceed three (3) feet from tread and trail clearing edge. All of the trails should be
maintained so that they are clear of vegetation. Rocks or debris from trail
maintenance activities must not be relocated in such as way as to potentially impact
adjacent sensitive plant species, such as native bulbs and/or drought deciduous
perennials.
B. Grade (For New Trails Only)
There is no plan to construct new trails within the Preserve. However, there may be
cases where portions of trails may need to be reconstructed or relocated. Wherever
possible, the course of a trail should follow the natural topography of the site. Trails
should only be relocated if there is compelling evidence that the work is necessary
for public safety. While the optimum grade should not exceed a maximum of 15%,
existing trails should not be modified to reduce grades if current uses can continue
without such modifications. Trail usage designation must be consistent with safety
on existing trail grades. If switchbacks are determined to be necessary, they should
be used on grades that exceed 15% for more than 300', or where a trail would not
7 -2
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
be stable on a steep slope. In some cases a short steep trail may be preferable to
the additional scarring of switchbacks.
C. Trail Surface
Trails should be maintained with natural material, suitable for the trail use or surface.
Areas needing attention should be maintained with materials, such as decomposed
granite. Drainage control should be provided at appropriate points in such a way
that the trail is not adversely affected by water erosion.
7.2 TRAILS NETWORK
The following discussion addresses each trail segment within the Forrestal Nature
Preserve as shown in Figure 7.1. To arrive at the trails network presented in Figure
7.1 and the definition of allowable uses presented in the Trails Usage Matrix, Figure
7.2, the Forrestal Advisory Board began a review of the trails within the Preserve in
November 2001. This review consisted of three major activities. First, the Board held
approximately 45 meetings over three years, all open to the public, including
presentations on habitat preservation, equestrian interests, the local community's
perspective, trail design, and public safety issues. The Board heard from experts
and user groups in many areas, including representatives from the Palos Verdes
Loop Trail Project, Ladera Linda Homeowners Association, Sierra Club, Concerned
Off Road Bicyclists Association, Palos Verdes Peninsula Horsemens Association,
Lomita Sheriff, and held a Saturday trail workshop at which experts from other
jurisdictions shared information. Second, all of the existing trails were hiked by the
committee on many occasions during scheduled meetings of the Advisory Board.
Finally, the Board deliberated, segment by segment, to come up with its trail
recommendations. The Trails Network Plan shown in Figure 7.1 and the Trails
Usage Matrix shown in Figure 7.2 are the products of those deliberations, and were
approved by the Advisory Board for inclusion in the Forrestal Nature Preserve
Management Plan.
The Advisory Board's recommendations for trails were forwarded to the City Council
for review and approval. The Tails Network Plan contained in this Plan was adopted
by the City Council on December 4, 2004 as a result of the approval process stated
herein.
Ongoing monitoring of the trails will be performed by PVPLC staff, as shown in the
Monitoring Protocol included in Appendix F. The information generated by this
monitoring will be included in the Annual Report to the City. Any concerns or issues
of note will be reported to the Advisory Board or the City, as appropriate.
An ongoing educational effort will be a key part of the management of the trail
network. It will consist of the following components:
7-3
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
1. Signs at the entry points to the Preserve showing the Trails Network
Map and the approved uses for each trail.
2. Trail maps available at the entry points.
3. Informational brochures about the Preserve.
4. An Educational Trails Unit (ETU) of volunteers from any and all users
of the Preserve, to provide information about the sensitivity of the
habitat, trail safety, and the importance of respecting the approved trail
locations and uses.
5. The Advisory Board will hold an annual public workshop each fall to
provide an opportunity for public comment on the trail plan, including
the uses of each trail, proposed additions or deletions to the plan, and
proposals for trail and other improvements to the Preserve. The
Committee will then consider the public input and, if appropriate, make
recommendations to the City Council for any changes to the Plan.

8. PASSIVE RECREATIONAL AMENITIES
The following chapter outlines the amenities, existing or proposed, on the Forrestal
Property for passive recreational activity by the general public. These amenities
provide specific activities to take place throughout the property.
8.1 Parking Facilities
Based on the past use of the Forrestal Property, combined with existing parking
spaces, parking is not anticipated to be a problem. No additional parking spaces
need to be provided to satisfy the reasonable requirements of groups or individuals
who want to visit the site. Furthermore, most larger organizations, such as school or
scout groups, come by bus or car pool, so their impacts on parking are minimal.
For daily use of the Forrestal Nature Preserve, there are seventeen (17) striped
spaces in the Ladera Linda Community Center's main parking lot. In addition to the
paved parking spaces at Ladera Linda, approximately sixty (60) unmarked spaces
are available in a gated dirt parking lot located within walking distance to the Quarry
Bowl trailhead. The dirt parking lot is open when the Ladera Linda Community
Center is open, and can be made available for additional public use if arrangements
are made with the City.
Additional off-site parking spaces are available on Forrestal Drive before the
entrance gate. For special events, parking is available on Forrestal Drive behind
the gates provided that arrangements are made with the City to open the gate.
8.2 Bench Locations
As a means of capturing coastal vistas, while providing trail users a designated rest
area, the following sites have been identified as possible location for the installation
of some type of simple, rustic bench or rock seating amenity (see map insert):
1. On the flat rocky area within the Quarry Bowl
2. Vista on Cristo Que Viento Trail
3. Vista at bend on Flying Mane Trail
4. Vista at equestrian destination on Basalt Trail
5. Vista at Packsaddle Trail
6. Vista on top of Fossil Hill, on Forrestal Vista Point Trail.
7. At the west end of Intrepid Drive
Any benches or other seating amenities approved by the Steering Committee for
the above locations will be situated along the appropriate trails and designed to
blend with the natural environment through the use of materials such as wood or
stone. Benches should be designed and treated to deter potential vandalism, and
secured to the ground to prevent unauthorized removal or relocation.

DECEMBER 4, 2004 DRAFT
8.3 Water Locations
Water fountains are currently available on sites adjacent to the Ladera Linda
Community Center and the paddle tennis court area. Water facilities, such as
drinking fountains, are not available on any of the trail routes. In order to inform
hikers that water is not available along the trail routes, signs should be posted at
the trail outlets that indicate the nearest location to water fountains.
8.4 Trash Bin Locations
As a means of encouraging the public's role in the maintenance of the trails and the
surrounding grounds, it is recommended that trash bins be installed at strategic
locations that are accessible to the general public and City maintenance crews.
The proposed trash bins will be constructed from materials that blend with the
natural terrain. Trash bins will be located adjacent to those bench locations and at
other appropriate locations that are easily accessible to City maintenance crews.
For security reasons, it is recommended that the trash bins are mounted to the
ground or chained to a solid structure, such as a sign pole or bench, to prevent
tampering.

9. SIGNS
9.1 Sign Types
Signs primarily serve to identify the general nature of a use or establishment, such
as a product, place, person, or activity. As identification devices, signs should not
subject the public to excessive visual competition, but rather be an appropriate
identification device that naturally blends with the surrounding environment and
other signs in the area.
Signs provide a great deal of information to the public, and can perform the following
functions:
1. Warning and Public Safety Signs - serves as warning devices, to keep visitors
away from unsafe areas;
2. Informational Signs - provides information such as the approved uses,
connections or destinations of trails, or permitted activities in a particular area.
3. Interpretive Signs - enhances public understanding of the history, geology,
wildlife, habitat and special characteristics of an area.
In conformance with the intent of the Sign Section of the Municipal Code, the size,
shape, color and placement of all proposed signs located on the Forrestal Nature
Preserve should be compatible with existing signs used throughout City's parks.
Any major identification signs located in the public right-of-way should use the
standard colors for City identification signs, which are blue, green and white. All
identification signs shall be no larger than thirty-two (32) square feet and no higher
than six (6) feet, as measured from adjacent grade. The proposed signs should be
in the shape of a square or rectangle. Any sign within the right-of-way that does not
conform with these requirements must be reviewed and approved by the City's
Public Works Department.
9.2 Warning and Public Safety Signs
The City Public Works Department shall be responsible for the design and
placement of warning and public safety signs within the Preserve. Any proposed
signs within the Preserve shall be reviewed and approved by the Director of
Planning, Building and Code Enforcement prior to installation.
It is recommended that precautionary "warning signs" be installed at designated
areas deemed to be hazardous based on geologic instability concerns. The City's
Public Works Director and the City's Geotechnical Consultant shall identify the exact
on-site location for each precautionary "warning sign."
9-1
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
Precautionary "warning signs" relating to the temporary closure of certain trail
segments should be posted at strategic and visible locations, pursuant to the City
Attorney's guidance. These signs should feature graphic representations of the
potential danger, based on the nature and location of the hazard.
The placement and design of these signs should be reviewed by the Advisory Board
prior to installation.
9.3 Informational Signs
In consideration of the public's health, safety and general welfare, signs should be
posted that provide information to users of the Preserve and outlining the rules and
regulations of the City. The sign text should be consistent with signs on other City
property.
Informational signs should provide an overview map of the Preserve's trails network,
with additional information about trail locations and uses. There should be additional
signs at appropriate locations for each trail showing the trail name, distance,
elevation change, permitted/prohibited uses for each trail segment and any other
information as deemed appropriate.
9.4 Interpretive Signs
Interpretive Signs should provide information to Preserve visitors about the habitat,
geology and history of the Preserve.
1. Large signs, not to exceed thirty-two (32) square feet in area, outlining the
basic rulesand regulations. These signs should include an overview map of
the trails network and should be located at the Quarry Bowl Trailhead
adjacent to Stalwart and at the junction of Stalwart and Intrepid.
2. Medium signs, not to exceed twenty (20) square feet in area, outlining the
basic rules and regulations. The sign should include a welcoming statement
and an overview map of the trails network. The medium sign should be
placed at the trail entrance to the Forrestal Nature Preserve located at the
end of Coolheights Drive.
3. Small signs, preferably made from carsonite material, should be provided
throughout the trails network to indicate the distance, elevation change,
name, and permitted/prohibited uses for each trail segment. It is
recommended that these signs be posted at the trail heads.
9.5 Sign Review Process
The specifications regarding proposed signs, including their general placement,
should be reviewed and approved by the Forrestal Steering Committee prior to
9-2
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
installation. The installation of the signs located throughout the Forrestal Nature
Preserve should be completed by the City's Public Works Department. Signs that
are in a state of disrepair, vandalized, weathered or removed should be repaired
immediately. The City's Public Works Department should be contacted when a sign
is in need of repair.

ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
10. MANAGEMENT AND MAINTENANCE ISSUES
10.1 TRAIL MAINTENANCE
Trails are to be maintained in accordance to the Trail Guidelines specified in
Section 7 of this Management Plan. Maintenance crews will remove any
overgrown vegetation from the trails, including overhead growth of trees and
bushes that disrupt the trail patterns used by pedestrians or equestrians. In order
to prevent any significant disturbance to surrounding vegetation, all trails will be
maintained by hand, and every effort should be made to minimize impacts to the
site. All prunings should be removed from the site. No clearing of trails is to be
permitted beyond the designated trail width without first being reviewed and
approved by a qualified biological consultant consistent with the Agreement
between the City and the PVPLC.
To the greatest extent feasible and the given available resources, the trails are to
be maintained so that the surface is continuous and integral. Those areas that
consist of soil are to be smooth, and after a yearly inspection any pits or erosion
channels should be back filled and compacted. Surfaces such as decomposed
granite should have any bald areas back filled. Accumulation of surface material
will be smoothed onto the trail, and particular attention will be paid to erosion
damage during the rainy season and to vegetation overgrowth during the growing
season.
In the event trail blockage or surface damage occurs and is reported by
pedestrians or equestrians, special maintenance arrangements should be made
correct the problem as soon as possible. Reports of such incidents shall be
made to the City in a timely manner.
10.2 GARBAGE REMOVAL
In accordance with Section 8 of this Management Plan, trash collection bins
should be placed at the specified trailheads. These bins are to be maintained by
the City of Rancho Palos Verdes on a regular basis as part of the regular trash
collection service at the Ladera Linda Community Center.
It is also recommended that periodically trash collection teams be dispatched
throughout the trail system to remove any debris.
10.3 DRAINAGE CONTROL ON TRAILS
Drainage breaks will be installed at critical locations in the trails. These breaks
will be inspected after any storm that results in more than 1" of precipitation and
should be maintained to assure that erosion does not render them ineffective.
10-1
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
Locations whereponding occurs are to be identified and plans for drainage of
these areas will be created and implemented.
10.4 FIRE CONTROL
As a designated wildlife management area, the Preserve is exempt from fire
suppression requirements. Notwithstanding, it is a reasonable expectation for the
City to conduct clearance of vegetation around structures in or around the
Forrestal Nature Preserve where the City deems the vegetation removal to be
necessary to protect public safety. Such fire management and fuel modification
actions shall remain the City's responsibility, as specified in the Management
Plan. The Los Angeles County Fire Department's rules should be adhered to at
all times.
10.5 HANDICAP ACCESS
Handicapped access will be provided where appropriate in accordance with the
regulations and criteria of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
10.6 COMMUNITY SERVICES
Since trail maintenance and trash removal are activities that lend themselves to
volunteer opportunities, the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy will
endeavor to enlist local volunteer groups in these projects. Scout Troops are a
fertile ground for volunteers. The City and/or the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land
Conservancy will assist with planning and coordination of Gold Award and Eagle
Scout projects suitable for the preserve.
10 -2
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
11. ANNUAL INSPECTION
The following chapter outlines criteria to be used to manage the Forrestal Nature
Preserve and to implement the programs set forth in this Management Plan for the
preservation and restoration of the existing terrain.
11.1 PROCESS
In accordance with the June 5, 2001 Management Agreement, the Palos Verdes
Peninsula Land Conservancy will be responsible for conducting the required annual
inspections. The inspections will occur after the rainy season, usually in April. The
inspection team should consist of a City Representative and one or more
representatives from the Forrestal Nature Preserve Steering Committee. The
inspection team will walk all of the trails to note any maintenance items requiring
attention, as well as conducting an inventory of property to identify and document
any changed conditions that occurred in the past year. In the course of the
inspection the Project Inspection Report Sheet (Appendix H) must be completed.
11.2 PHOTO DOCUMENTATION
During the first Annual Inspection a set of Baseline photographs will be taken. The
points from which these photos are taken will be marked, and yearly photos will be
taken from these same points. In addition to the established photo point locations,
photographs will be taken of areas that require maintenance and areas with specific
changed conditions during the prior year. In addition to the photographs described,
aerial photographs of the entire area may also be taken periodically.
Photo Point Establishment:
Photo point locations have been chosen to capture large expanses of the project
site. The combined photo point views include all areas of the site for future
comparative purposes. This does not mean that all sections of the site require
detailed photographs.
In selecting photo point locations, areas of significant habitat have been avoided to
preclude impact to such resources. Locations adjacent to the trails included in the
plan have been chosen to minimize potential damage when the markers are
installed and each following year when photos are taken. Modifications to the
locations may be made if conditions change.
Each photo point location should be identified in such a manner that consistency of
viewpoint can be replicated.
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
Yearly Photographing Methods:
All photographs should be taken with a high quality camera. A series of
photographs should be taken from each photo point, meaning one in each direction
necessary to capture all portions of the property visible from that point.
A record of each photo (or series of photos) must be made each year. A standard
form to be completed for each photo is attached as Appendix I. To ensure
accuracy and completeness of the record, the form should be filled out at the time
the photo (or series) is taken.
11.3 Vegetation Monitoring For Revegetation Areas
When revegetation of areas of the site is undertaken, vegetation surveys should be
completed prior to commencement, and at periodic intervals to monitor the progress
of the effort. The inventories would ideally be completed in April after the rainy
season.
Monitoring methods will be defined in conjunction with any revegetation plans, but
should consist of a 50 -meter point -transect and plot method. This method entails
identification of a 50 meter by 5 meter area and a transect through the center of the
plot, running the 50 meter length. The plot should be located in areas of
homogeneous vegetation, and may be curved, or otherwise modified to
accommodate smaller areas of revegetation. The plots should be marked so that
the same area can be monitored by each survey to allow for valid comparison and
to provide accurate information on revegetation progress.
Once the 0.5 -meter points along the entire length of the transect are identified,
these points are projected vertically, and the vegetation intercepting this vertical
projection is documented. The presence of the plant is documented based on its
height from the ground. Finally, a list of all plants present in the 250 square meter
plot is made. A form for this documentation is attached as Appendix J. Appendix J
includes a short and a long form for the documentation, and each should be used
as appropriate.
11.4 Annual Report To The City
After completion of the Annual Inspection by the Inspection Team, the Palos Verdes
Peninsula Land Conservancy (PVPLC) will prepare a report for the City Council's
review. This report should be reviewed and approved by the Steering Committee
and City staff before being submitted to the City Manager, in care of the Director of
Planning, Building and Code Enforcement. It shall be submitted no later than 30
days from the anniversary date (June 5) of the Management Agreement, or as
otherwise agreed to by the PVPLC and the City.
11 -2
ADOPTED: MARCH 15, 2005
The report must include, but is not limited to the following components:
• Executive Summary — This should include anything significant occurring
during the period, including revegetation and maintenance actions taken
during the period and identification of maintenance needs observed during
the annual inspection.
• Project Inspection Report Sheet (See Appendix H).
• Copies of the annual photo documentation and photo point record sheets
(see Appendix 1).
• Copies of any vegetation surveys completed during the prior year.

COLLECTION POLICY
Appendix D
COLLECTION POLICY
Collection of specimen material must be tightly controlled on the site due to the potential
impacts to biological resources. The following policies shall apply:
o Collecting of rocks, minerals, fossils and bones on a recreational basis is allowed,
with the restriction that people can only remove what they can carry in their hands.
Reporting of significant finds to the City or the PVPLC is required, and items of
archeological, mineralogical, historical or paleontological importance must be turned
over to the Point Vicente Interpretive Center. Commercial and/or large-scale removal
of materials is prohibited and will be controlled by staff and volunteers. Collection
activities must not disturb plants or wildlife.
❑ Collecting of plant material or flowers is generally forbidden due to its potential
impacts to plant reproduction and on fauna which may be dependent on the plants for
food and habitat, and due to the potential impact on soil erosion and geological
stability. Collecting of seeds and cuttings may be permitted only with the written
permission of the City and the PVPLC.
o Research on and collection of insects and birds may be permitted only with the
appropriate agency permits and the written permission of the City and the PVPLC. All
entities shall receive a copy of the research results.

TRAIL MONITORING PROTOCOL FOR THE
' FORRESTAL NATURE PRESERVE
As a part of the management of the Forrestal Preserve, the PVPLC will monitor
' trail use in the Preserve. This monitoring will provide information for ongoing
management and for the yearly review of trail configuration and uses.
Each year the PVPLC does biological monitoring of the preserve. Many of the
photographs at the established photo points show areas with trails. Up to ten
' additional sites will be selected to show areas of specific concern with respect
to trails and trail uses. During the year, the location of trail monitoring photo
points will be revised if conditions warrant.
' The Status Report required by the Forrestal Management Plan, combined with
the Annual Report submitted in May of 2004 will serve as the baseline for the
' preserve monitoring.
PVPLC staff will continue to perform a property review on a monthly basis,
' checking the site for its general condition, the health of the habitat, and any
maintenance needs, in addition to noting activities on the site. The trail
' monitoring will be added to the monitoring already being performed, as follows:
January Property review and trail monitoring, up to 20 photos taken
iFebruary Property review
March Property review and trail monitoring, up to 20 photos taken
April Complete biological and trail monitoring, 60-75 photographs
' taken
May Yearly report written; property review
' June Property review and trail monitoring, up to 20 photos taken
July Property review
August Property review and trail monitoring, up to 20 photos taken
' September Property review; annual public meeting to review trail
configuration and uses and to recommend any changes to
City Council
' October Property review
November Property review and trail monitoring, up to 20 photos taken
December Property review
A new form that will be part of the property review will allow PVPLC staff to note
' the condition of each trail on a monthly basis.

FORRESTAL NATURE PRESERVE -TRAIL USER QUESTIONNAIRE
I Forrestal is a unique NATURE PRESERVE, home to rare plants and important animal habitats. It is a significant part of the
proposed NCCP Preserve for the Palos Verdes Peninsula.The Forrestal Steering Committee has been established by the City
of Rancho Palos Verdes,which owns the property,and the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy,which has a contract with
the City to manage the Preserve. One of the Committee's tasks is to recommend to the City Council for approval a system
I of trails that will provide public access to this property. The approved trail system will then be implemented over the next few
years. Some trails will need to be improved. Trails not included in the system will be officially closed, and measures will
eventually be taken to discourage their use.This questionnaire has been developed to provide the Committee with information
