The Cunningham Report, a respected publication that covers the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles, calls the odds of the Long Beach Breakwater coming down "pretty slim."
The project would "have too many negative impacts that cannot be mitigated, including impacts on the Port of Long Beach," the Cunningham Report states. "That's unwelcome news to area surfers who have been pushing to remove the breakwater for decades."
Meanwhile, the City Council was expected to review the breakwater study tonight.
It doesn't need to come down. It needs to be reconfigured. And the port should pay for it.
