“Project” means an urban waterfront restoration activity located wholly or partly within the coastal zone for which a plan of urban waterfront restoration has been approved pursuant to Section 32059 and an urban waterfront restoration activity located within the territory of the Sacramento-Yolo Port District, the Stockton Port District, or on a river, lake, or reservoir located within a metropolitan statistical area for which a plan of urban waterfront restoration has been approved pursuant to Section 32059.5. Project includes, but is not limited to, lands, buildings, or roads, and improvements thereto, work, rehabilitation, structure, or property, real or personal, located wholly or partly within the coastal zone or within the territory of the Sacramento-Yolo Port District, the Stockton Port District, or on a river, lake, or reservoir located within a metropolitan statistical area, providing or designed to provide visitor serving commercial facilities, transient visitor accommodations, coastal or inland waterfront dependent industry, public utility systems, mass transit facilities, and public recreation and shoreline access facilities, including, but not limited to, parks, stairways, piers, and wharves, boat berthing facilities, parking facilities, visitor service centers, or interpretive centers, shoreline protection and erosion control facilities, and administrative facilities necessary for the operation of coastal dependent activities. Project does not include new permanent residential structures, office structures for nonmaritime purposes on lands subject to the public trust for commerce, navigation, and fisheries, noncoastal dependent industrial facilities, or other noncoastal related uses, or industrial facilities or other uses that are unrelated to an inland waterfront. A project may include office structures on lands not subject to the public trust for commerce, navigation, and fisheries, or office structures for maritime purposes on lands subject to the public trust for commerce, navigation, and fisheries, if the State Coastal Conservancy finds that the project physically includes all of the elements specified in paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 32059.
