Fitzgerald Marine Reserve (rocky intertidal)
Mirada Road (road, Coastal Trail, restaurant/inn)
California Coastal Trail
HMB Landfill (closed)
SAM Wastewater Treatment Plant

AVP’s will describe an asset’s function or service, along with the sensitivity of the asset and its function to flood depth and duration. The AVP will also characterize the adaptive capacity of that asset, and will discuss the potential consequences (economic, social/equity, environmental, or otherwise) that could result from its loss. Following asset manager questionnaires and interviews, a draft AVP will be available for public review and comment period.
