Finding of No Significant Impact, Channel Islands National Park, Replace Prisoners Pier at Santa Cruz Island
The National Park Service's Channel Islands National Park proposes to replace the existing pier at Prisoners Harbor, Santa Cruz Island. Currently the park owns the eastern 10% of Santa Cruz Island. The park's holdings will be increased to about 25% at the conclusion of a land transfer from the Nature Conservancy expected to occur by May 2000. (The Nature Conservancy owns the remainder of the island and has a full-time staff living on the island). As a result of this transaction the National Park Service will own the pier at Prisoners Harbor. This pier is one of two on the island. This pier is rapidly deteriorating from natural processes and lack of maintenance, is unsafe and is closed to all use. Many piles, including some complete bents (rows of piles perpendicular to the length of the pier), are missing. Many of the fender piles are missing and the decking is badly worn. In 1998 The Naval Air Weapons Station, Point Mugu, conducted an engineering study of the Prisoners Pier. They recommended an extensive replacement for much of the pier. The pier has deteriorated further since the study was completed.
