O'Donnell talks about breakwater study on Saturday
Councilmember Patrick O'Donnell will host a public meeting Saturday (Oct. 4) to discuss the timeline and scope of the Long Beach Breakwater Reconnaissance Study.
The study, which was approved by the Council in 2005, but remained unfunded until July of 2007, could help determine the federal government's interest in a full assessment of the breakwater's reconfiguration, his staff noted..
"I am looking forward to this discussion, which could be the first step towards clean water and restoring our shore," O'Donnell said in a prepared statement released Tuesday. "This is the public's first opportunity to learn about the scope of the reconnaissance study."
.
The meeting is scheduled from 9 to 10 a.m. at the Aquarium of the Pacific's Honda Theater. This event is free to the public. There will be a $6 charge for parking. For more information, please call (562) 570-6918.
