c. the alteration is , to allow a public park or public <br /> recreational use, or to provide public access to the <br /> shoreline within an area designated as an "urban" or <br /> "conservancy/recreation" environment by the Shoreline <br /> Master Program provided that there is no feasible and <br /> reasonable alternative to making the alteration and-the <br /> alteration does not act to degrade the functions of the <br /> wetland, or the alteration proposed has a reasonable <br /> likelihood of being fully mitigated <br /> d. Enhancement of wetlands is permitted where the wetlands <br /> being enhanced are in a degraded condition and the <br /> enhancement proposed is likely to provide substantial <br /> rehabilitation and improved functional values. <br /> 2.

Non-water dependent activities may be allowed to <br /> alter Category II wetlands only upon demonstration <br /> that: <br /> 16 <br />
