WE HAVE FACILITATED STATE GRANTS FOR WASTEWATER FACILITIES TO UPGRADE TO RECYCLED WATER. WE PERFORM COST FEASIBILITY STUDIES FOR A NUMBER OF INFRASTRUCTURE CHANGES THAT CAN BE MADE TO BENEFIT CLEAN WATER, AND THE OCEAN. WE HAVE CONDUCTED DNA TESTS IN WATERSHEDS AND ARE NOW WORKING WITH GIS MAPPERS TO DELINEATE AREAS OF THE CALIFORNIA COAST THAT WILL BE IMPACTED BY SEA LEVEL RISE CAUSED BY CLIMATE CHANGE - AND WORK WITH REGIONAL WATER QUALITY CONTROL BOARDS THROUGHOUT THE COASTAL REGIONS OF THE STATE TO PREPARE FOR CLEANUP WORK BEFORE THE OCEAN RISESOUR APPROACH TO SOLVING ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS IS UNIQUE IN THAT WE WORK WITH (NOT AGAINST) COUNTIES, CITIES, AGENCIES, WASTEWATER AND WATER DISTRICTS TO MOVE FORWARD WITH MORE SOPHISTICATED TECHNOLOGY TO SOLVE WATER POLLUTION PROBLEMS. WE ACCESS GRANT FUNDS TO HELP PROJECTS THAT IMPROVE OCEAN WATER QUALITY AND TO PROTECT PRECIOUS GROUNDWATER RESOURCES. WE CONTINUE TO HELP HOMEOWNERS TO CONVERT FROM SEPTIC SYSTEMS TO PUBLIC WASTEWATER SYSTEMS. WE CONTINUE TO SERVE ON THE SANTA BARBARA COUNTY INTEGRATED REGIONAL WATER MANAGEMENT (IRWM) STEERING COMMITTEE, WHICH WE HAVE BEEN DOING SINCE 2010, AND IN THIS CAPACITY HAVE SUCCESSFULLY ADVOCATED FOR PROJECTS THAT LEAD TO WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT UPGRADE AS WELL AS GROUNDWATER PROTECTION.I. SEPTIC SYSTEMS:1) SEPTIC SYSTEM POLLUTION OF GROUNDWATER. BUILDING ON OUR SUCCESS WITH THE RINCON (SOUTH COAST BEACH COMMUNITIES SEPTIC TO SEWER) PROJECT, HEAL THE OCEAN CONTINUES TO WORK ON COASTAL AREAS STILL ON SEPTIC SYSTEMS - PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT IN THE TIMES WE ARE NOW IN WITH SEA LEVEL RISE CAUSED BY CLIMATE CHANGE. 2) AB885 UPDATE. UNDER AB885 (JACKSON) THE TMDL (TOTAL MAXIMUM DAILY LOAD) LIST AMENDMENTS ARE TO BE UPDATED EVERY FIVE YEARS TO LIST AREAS THAT REQUIRE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS AS OUTLINED IN THE REGULATIONS UNDER AB 885. HEAL THE OCEAN IS CURRENTLY WORKING WITH THE STATE WATER RESOURCES CONTROL BOARD (SWRCB) TO UPDATE THIS LIST ("ATTACHMENT 2"), TO INCLUDE SEPTIC SYSTEM AREAS THAT NOW NEED TO BE ADDRESSED.3) BEACH CLUB ROAD SEPTIC-TO-SEWER. BEACH CLUB ROAD IS AN ENCLAVE OF 28 HOMES WITHIN THE BOUNDARIES OF THE SOUTH COAST BEACH COMMUNITIES SEPTIC-TO-SEWER PROJECT, LOCATED ON THE OCEAN AND IN A CREEK AREA WITH HIGH GROUNDWATER. THOSE HOMEOWNERS PULLED BACK FROM THE BIGGER PROJECT WITH LEGAL FIGHTS BROKE OUT, BUT WERE STILL INCLUDED IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW PROCESS, AND AS SUCH, ARE STILL COVERED BY CEQA IF THEY WERE TO HOOK UP TO THE PUBLIC SEWER SYSTEM. IN 2020 HEAL THE OCEAN CONTINUED COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE COMMUNITY REGARDING CONVERSION FROM SEPTIC TO SEWER. HEAL THE OCEAN HAS DEVELOPED AN OUTREACH PLAN TO COMMUNICATE THE HOMEOWNERS AND WORKING TO SET UP INFORMATIONAL MEETINGS WITH THE CARPENTARIA SANITARY DISTRICT.4) SANTA YNEZ HORIZON/STADIUM SEPTIC-TO-SEWER PROJECT. IN 2017 HEAL THE OCEAN HIRED DUDEK ENVIRONMENTAL TO SUBMIT A PROJECT PROPOSAL TO THE STATE FOR A LOW-INTERESTING REVOLVING LOAN TO HELP PAY FOR A $6 MILLION SEPTIC-TO-SEWER PROJECT FOR 450+ HOMES OVERLYING A GROUNDWATER BASIN USED FOR DRINKING WATER. IN 2020, MANY HOMEOWNERS IN HORIZON AREA ARE CONNECTING TO PUBLIC SEWER SYSTEM.5) LOS OLIVOS. THIS AREA THAT OVERLIES THE SANTA YNEZ GROUNDWATER BASIN IS HEAVILY POPULATED WITH HOTELS, WINERIES, RESTAURANTS AND PUBLIC FACILITIES, AND IS ON SEPTIC SYSTEMS. IT HAS BEEN CITED AS A "PROBLEM AREA" BY THE SANTA BARBARA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS. IN 2017, LOS OLIVOS CREATED ITS OWN COMMUNITY SERVICE DISTRICT (CSD) TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM, THEREBY SKIRTING THE OFFER OF SANTA YNEZ COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT TO HOOK THEM UP TO A POCKET RECYCLED WATER WWTP, STATING THEY WOULD DO THIS THEMSELVES. HEAL THE OCEAN IS IN THE PROCESS OF PREPARING ENFORCEMENT, SINCE PROGRESS REQUIRED BY LAFCO FOR A PROP 218 VOTE FOR SEWER SERVICE HAS LAPSED BY 2 YEARS.II. UPGRADING WASTEWATER TO RECYCLED WATER:IN 2020 HEAL THE OCEAN CONTINUED EDUCATING, RESEARCHING, ADVOCATING AND FACILITATING THE ADVANCEMENT OF TURNING WASTE(D) WATER INTO RECYCLED WATER. WHEN PROPOSITION 1 FUNDING BECAME AVAILABLE FOR FACILITIES PLANNING GRANTS TO CONVERT WWTPS TO RECYCLED WATER PLANTS, WE APPROACHED NUMBER OF WATER/WASTEWATER DISTRICTS TO PARTICIPATE, AND SUCCEEDED IN GETTING $150,000 PLANNING GRANTS. WE CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THOSE DISTRICTS TODAY.III. GROUNDWATER.A) GROUNDWATER CHARACTERIZATION PROJECT: IN 2017 HEAL THE OCEAN FORMED A TEAM PROJECT WITH THE REGIONAL BOARD ON A GROUNDWATER CHARACTERIZATION PROJECT THAT IDENTIFIED GROUNDWATER QUALITY DATA IN THE SANTA YNEZ GROUNDWATER BASIN. THIS REPORT WAS RELEASED BY THE REGIONAL BOARD IN 2019, AND HEAL THE OCEAN CONTINUES OUR CAMPAIGN TO GET LOS OLIVOS OFF SEPTIC SYSTEMS WITH THIS REPORT AS AN IMPORTANT EVIDENTIARY TOOL. B) CONTAMINATED GROUNDWATER CLEANUP - CITY OF SANTA BARBARA. AS A RESULT OF OUR WORK TO ORGANIZE CONTAMINATED GROUNDWATER DATA INTO THE STATE WATER BOARD GEOTRACKER SITE (A 3-YEAR PROJECT), THE SANTA BARBARA COUNTY ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SERVICES SITE MITIGATION UNIT (SMU) AND REGIONAL BOARD CONTINUES TO REGULATE THE CONTAMINATED GROUNDWATER AREAS BENEATH THE CITY OF SANTA BARBARA, AND REPORTS TO HTO. WE ARE NOTIFIED BY THE SANTA BARBARA CITY AND COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSIONS WHEN A DEVELOPMENT IS PROPOSED FOR SOME OF THESE AREAS, SO THAT WE CAN PRESS FOR CLEANUP BEFORE ANY BUILDING IS PLANNED. IN 2020 THERE WERE APPROXIMATELY 9 CLEANUP ORDERS ISSUED IN THE CITY OF SANTA BARBARA FOR VARIOUS GROUNDWATER AND SOIL POLLUTION VIOLATIONS. C) SEA LEVEL RISE. IN 2020 HEAL THE OCEAN CONTINUED ITS ADVOCACY FOR ADAPTATION PLANS IN SEA LEVEL RISE (CLIMATE CHANGE) PLANNING DOCUMENTS, ILLUSTRATING WITH PHOTOGRAPHS TAKEN BY HTO ADVISORY BOARD MEMBER HARRY RABIN DURING KING TIDES HOW CLOSE THE SANTA BARBARA COUNTY SHORELINE IS TO FLOODING. AT CITY AND COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSIONS, WE ADVISE CAUTION IN ALLOWING BUILDING IN COASTAL ZONES THAT WILL BE FLOODED.IV. ONSHORE POLLUTIONA) OIL POLLUTION (OCEAN DUMPING)I) TREADWELL AND NORTHSTAR OIL WELLS. THE NEXT TWO POLLUTING WELLS OFF SUMMERLAND BEACH WERE CAPPED IN 2020, WITH HEAL THE OCEAN'S ADVISORY BOARD MEMBER HARRY RABIN WORKING CLOSELY WITH THE STATE LANDS COMMISSION ENGINEERS WHO OUTLINED THE PLAN OF ACTION FOR THE WORK. WORK BEGAN THE WEEK OF NOVEMBER 9, 2020 TO CAP THE TREADWELL AND NORTHSTAR OIL WELLS FUNDING FOR THE $3 MILLION OPERATION CAME FROM SB 44, AUTHORED BY SENATOR HANNAH-BETH JACKSON, TO PROVIDE $2 MILLION PER YEAR FOR THE CLEANUP OF HAZARDS AND ABANDONED WELLS ALONG THE CALIFORNIA COAST. (HTO WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN GETTING SB 44 PASSED, BY HIRING CONSULTANTS TO PRODUCE INFRARED MAPS THAT SUCCINCTLY OUTLINED WHERE THE LEAKING WELLS EXISTED.) FOLLOWING THE WELL CAPPING, HARRY RABIN CONDUCTED THE REQUIRED POST-PROJECT MONITORING, FLYING A DRONE OVER THE AREA OF WORK TO IDENTIFY ANY PROBLEM OF OIL ESCAPE. HIS AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE NORTHSTAR AREA SHOW A VISIBLY CLEAR OCEAN. HARRY RABIN CONTINUES HIS WORK WITH INTERACT TO OUTLINE THE NEXT TWO OIL CAPPING PROJECTS FOR SUMMERLAND IN 2021. B) STYROFOAM AND SINGLE USE PLASTIC POLLUTION. HEAL THE OCEAN CONTINUES OUR SUCCESSFUL STYROFOAM RECYCLING PROGRAM WITH MARBORG INDUSTRIES, WHICH HAS ESTABLISHED TWO DROP-OFF FACILITIES FOR THE PUBLIC TO BRING IN RECYCLABLE STYROFOAM - ONE IN THE LOWER MILPAS STREET AREA, THE OTHER IN GOLETA, AT DAVID LOVE PLACE. MARBORG COMPRESSES THE STYROFOAM INTO SOLID BLOCKS THAT THEN ARE TRANSPORTED TO A FACILITY THAT LIQUIFIES THE MATERIAL TO BE MADE INTO PRODUCTS SUCH AS MIRROR AND PICTURE FRAMES, CROWN MOLDING AND OTHER BUILDING MATERIALS THAT TAKE THE PLACE OF WOOD. TO ADD TO THIS PROGRAM, HEAL THE OCEAN NOW OFFERS A PICKUP SERVICE FOR STYROFOAM FROM BUSINESSES THAT DON'T HAVE THE MEANS OF TRANSPORTING STYROFOAM TO THE DROP-OFF SITES. THESE BUSINESSES INCLUDE PACKAGE STORES, RADIO SHOPS, ETC. STYROFOAM RECYCLING FACILITY IN SANTA BARBARA. 279789 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 7 0 1 4 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 0 CA X HILLARY HAUSER 8059657570 1430 CHAPALA ST SANTA BARBARA CA 93101 JEAN-MICHEL COUSTEAU BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 CHARLES VINICK BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 HEATHER HUDSON BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 TOM WHITE BOARD MEMBER 1.00 X 0 0 0 THOMAS DABNEY TREASURER 1.00 X X 0 0 0 JONATHAN WYGANT SECRETARY 1.00 X X 0 0 0 HILLARY HAUSER PRESIDENT 40.00 X X 120000 0 35250 120000 0 35250 1 0 1 0 0 158519 856638 1015157 1275 1275 0 158519 10715 -10715 -10715 1024 6790 -5766 -5766 999951 -5766 0 -9440 X 155250 98972 15525 40753 93995 52353 35624 6018 7228 4026 2739 463 6405 3567 2427 411 17060 17060 13165 13165 62646 53404 7053 2189 21565 15956 2269 3340 25121 1567 22714 840 53265 7428 45837 306 306 1552 1552 DIRECT PROGRAM MATERIAL 28853 28853 PRINTING, POSTAGE, AND 13215 12819 120 276 DUES, FEES, SUBSCRIPTIO 1876 844 1032 501502 279789 167423 54290 57656 118359 428014 659186 11931 200 227201 8158 8158 4270 5270 14307 7995 513 6312 510542 1024686 22929 38624 22929 38624 X 468663 962368 18950 23694 487613 986062 510542 1024686 498449 0 X 0 0 0 X 246076 462463 403035 500079 1015157 2626810 64919 145044 83682 1024 294669 246076 527382 548079 583761 1016181 2921479 10000 7000 10000 27000 0 10000 7000 10000 27000 2894479 128 274 630 1692 1275 3999 128 274 630 1692 1275 3999 246204 527656 548709 585453 1017456 2925478 0.98940 0.99060 0.00140 0.00130 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 10884 4572 6312 3423 3423 0 6312 ANNUAL EVENT 158519 158519 1000 26 0 9689 158519 158519 1000 26 9689 10715 -10715 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 HILLARY HAUSER PRESIDENT 120000 0 0 0 0 0 30000 0 5250 0 155250 0 0 0 FORM 990, PART III, 4A CONTINUATION OF PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS: IV. ONSHORE POLLUTION C) SANTA BARBARA COUNTY HOMELESS. HOMELESSNESS IS WIDELY RECOGNIZED AS A MAJOR SOURCE OF WATER POLLUTION BECAUSE OF LACK OF SANITATION IN THE CAMPS. HEAL THE OCEAN HAS BEEN TACKLING THE PROBLEM IN SUMMERLAND SINCE SPRING 2017, AND IN 2020 JOINED A FIRE DEPARTMENT TASK FORCE TO WORK OUT SOLUTIONS FOR HOMELESS CAMPS CREATING FIRE HAZARDS. HTO CONTINUES COMMUNICATION WITH THE CITY CREEKS DEPARTMENT TO TACKLE THE PROBLEM OF POLLUTION OF CREEKS AND WATERWAYS CAUSED BY LACK OF SANITATION IN THE HOMELESS CAMPS IN THOSE AREAS. HARRY RABIN, HEAL THE OCEAN ADVISORY BOARD CONSULTANT, HAS PRODUCED INTERACTIVE GIS MAPS THAT SHOW THE LOCATION OF ALL THE CAMPS FROM SUMMERLAND TO GOLETA, THEREBY KEEPING TRACK OF THE UNSHELTERED POPULATION WHILE WE WORK WITH OTHER AGENCIES TO INSTITUTE MEASURES TO ELIMINATE CAMPS FROM FLAMMABLE AREAS AS WELL AS CREEKS AND WATERSHEDS, WHICH POSE A THREAT TO PUBLIC HEALTH AS WELL AS OCEAN WATER QUALITY. V. BEACH CLEANUPS: A) BECAUSE OF COVID-19, HEAL THE OCEAN SUSPENDED SCHOOL-SUPERVISED BEACH CLEANUPS ALONG THE CALIFORNIA COAST IN 2020, AND UNTIL THE PANDEMIC LIFTS, WE ARE FOCUSED ON KEEPING TRASH OFF THE BEACH. WE HAVE HIRED MARBORG INDUSTRIES FOR EXTRA TRASH PICKUPS AT VARIOUS BEACHES IN THE COUNTY. IN 2020 WE INSTITUTED A STREET SWEEPING PROGRAM FOR CHANNEL DRIVE, WHICH PARALLELS THE POPULAR BUTTERFLY BEACH IN MONTECITO, WITH TRASH PICKUP ALONG THE WALKWAY, TO KEEP IT FROM GETTING ONTO THE BEACH. B) ABANDONED BEACHFRONT HOMELESS ENCAMPMENT CLEANUP. IN 2020 HEAL THE OCEAN SUCCESSFULLY ORGANIZED AND FUNDED A LARGESCALE CLEANUP OF AN ABANDONED HOMELESS CAMP ON THE BEACH IN MONTECITO, NEAR BUTTERFLY BEACH. THE ABANDONED HOMELESS CAMP WAS SURROUNDED BY TRASH, BICYCLE PARTS, CAR BATTERIES, FLOODED TENTS, AND OTHER OFFAL. AFTER BEING NOTIFIED ABOUT THE CAMP HARRY RABIN NOTED THERE WOULD BE A KING TIDE IN 48 HOURS, MEANING THE OCEAN WOULD SWAMP THE HOMELESS CAMP AND CARRY THE GARBAGE OUT TO SEA. HEAL THE OCEAN ADVISORY CONSULTANT HARRY RABIN USED HIS DIRECT CONTACT WITH TWO COUNTY SHERIFFS, WHO INSPECTED THE SITE TO VERIFY IT WAS ABANDONED AND THEN THEY OPENED THE GATE INTO THE CLARK ESTATE FIELD FOR TRUCK ACCESS TO THE CAMP. HTO WAS ABLE TO CONTACT A LOCAL CLEANING COMPANY, BIG GREEN, ON A LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON - JUST IN TIME - AND THE WORKERS CAME TO THE SITE WITH HAULING TRUCKS TO TAKE THE MATERIAL AWAY. THE CAMP WAS CLEARED OUT IN LESS THAN 48 HOURS BEFORE THE KING TIDE CAME AND ENGULFED THE BEACH. C) BOAT WRECKAGE CLEANUP. IN COLLABORATION WITH MARBORG INDUSTRIES, HEAL THE OCEAN CLEANED UP A BOAT WRECKAGE IN NOVEMBER 2020 BETWEEN EAST BEACH AND HAMMONDS IN SANTA BARBARA/MONTECITO. THE FRACTURED BOAT HAD BEEN ABANDONED NEARLY TWO MONTHS, BREAKING UP IN THE SURF AND LITTERING THE BEACH WITH SPLINTERED PIECES OF WOOD, BOAT MACHINERY, CUSHIONS, ELECTRONICS, OIL BATTERY ACID, SHARP OBJECTS AND OTHER DEBRIS THAT PRESENTED DANGERS TO BEACH USERS. THE WORK, FUNDED THROUGH HEAL THE OCEAN BY THE JOHNSON OHANA FOUNDATION, WAS PERFORMED BY A MARBORG CREW AND HEAVY EQUIPMENT IN A TWO-DAY OPERATION OVERSEEN BY BRIAN BORGATELLO OF MARBORG INDUSTRIES. IT INVOLVED 12 MARBORG LABORERS 1 EQUIPMENT OPERATOR, 1 CAT EXCAVATOR, 1 ROLL-OFF DRIVER AND TRUCK, 1 SEMI-LOW-BED-AND-DRIVER - ALL COMING TO THE WRECKAGE AREA FROM THE EAST BEACH FIELD BY THE CLARK ESTATE. THE PROJECT HAS LED TO HEAL THE OCEAN COLLABORATING WITH THE SANTA BARBARA HARBOR DEPARTMENT, FOR NOTICES OF ABANDONED VESSELS BREAKING THEIR MOORINGS AND HEADED FOR THE BEACH. THE HARBOR OFFICIALS ARE ALSO GUIDING HTO TOWARD A STATE GRANT TO PAY FOR SUCH CLEANUPS IN THE FUTURE. VI. DOG BAG PROGRAM: A) HEAL THE OCEAN RAISED OVER $24,000 IN 2020 TO SEND TO BOTH THE COUNTY AND CITY OF SANTA BARBARA TO PAY FOR COMPOSTABLE DOG BAGS THAT ARE DISPENSED IN COUNTY/CITY DOG BAG DISPENSERS. WE RAISED OVER $20,000 THROUGH OUR DISPENSER SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM AND FROM DIRECT DOGGY BAG DONATIONS THROUGH OUR WEBSITE. WE HAVE EXPANDED THE PROGRAM TO INCLUDE NEW LOCATIONS ACROSS THE CITY AND COUNTY, INCLUDING JALAMA BEACH, A POPULAR SURF/CAMPING LOCATION IN THE NORTH COUNTY.
