01 Pacific Palisades Technical Reports

AECOM produced three technical reports to document existing conditions, damage, potential
projects, strategies, and recommendations.

These plans were informed by City departments, outside public agencies, and community groups.

Infrastructure Restoration Overview
Cross-departmental analysis and coordination framework for
restoring all fire-impacted infrastructure in the Pacific Palisades
Comprehensive analysis of:
a

(electric, gas, (water, wastewater, infrastructure (slopes, erosion
telecom) stormwater) (pavement, control, watershed)
sidewalks, curbs,
street lighting, trees)
Includes recommendations for how to proceed with implementation

Three-Tier Recovery Approach and Analysis
Consolidation of all agency plans
into one coordinated document

Compiles Tier 1 (emergency response),
Tier 2 (intermediate), and Tier 3 (long-term)
plans across agencies and private utilities

Synthesizes 263 projects into a single
unified document
Multi-dimensional analysis of all
infrastructure projects

Analyzes projects across timeline, scope,
cost, and physical impact area, revealing
the interdependencies between utility
systems, streets, and natural infrastructure

Infrastructure Recommendations
Use Program Management Office approach for work in Palisades until the City
determines that recovery is complete, pending feasibility studies.
Recommendations for long-term resilience across all systems:

Strategic undergrounding, voltage conversion/ standardization, and corridor hardening

Power Distribution Automation, smart metering, and other targeted upgrades

Water, wastewater, and stormwater reliability upgrades

Permanent pavement and streetscape restoration

Tree replanting and urban canopy recovery

Long-term slope stabilization and watershed management

Key Recommendations
Implement coordinated mobility and communication management in the
Pacific Palisades during multi-year reconstruction.
Recommendations for coordinated rebuilding operations:

Adopt a coordinated lane-closure review process to protect emergency access and
prevent overlapping work.

Implement delivery-spreading and staging guidelines to manage peak truck activity.

Establish managed curb and contractor parking zones to preserve residential access.

Provide consolidated, proactive community updates through a single verified source.

Maintain a phased and scalable approach to digital tools based on operational need.

Continuously monitor conditions and refine protocols as rebuild activity evolves.
