Los Angeles
County Service Planning Area 8-South Bay/Harbor-is a
mosaic of communities, ports, and incorporated
municipalities, including the corridor that links the
City of Los Angeles to all major ports of entry for
international trade.
The
coastline along the Pacific Ocean serves as the western
and southern border of SPA 8, from the City of El
Segundo to the north, around the Palos Verdes Peninsula
to the Los Angeles and Long Beach Harbors on the south;
the SPA includes Santa Catalina Island. The eastern
boundaries of the City of Long Beach, generally parallel
to the San Gabriel River, constitute the eastern border
for SPA 8. Its northern boundary is a jagged line that
runs from 64th Street in the City of
Inglewood-at the northernmost tip of the region-to
Figueroa Street, south to State Highway 91 (the Artesia
Freeway), and east along the northern border of the City
of Long Beach to 70th Street. |
