City of Pleasanton—Villages at the Quarry Project 15183 Consistency Checklist Consistency Checklist 103 project site. None of these resources are located within the project site. In addition, 16 area-specific survey reports are on file with the NWIC for the project site and its 0.5-mile search radius; four reports partially address the project site. This indicates that the project site has partially been previously surveyed for cultural resources. On March 18, 2024, FCS sent a letter to the NAHC in an effort to determine whether any sacred sites are listed on its SLF for the project site. A response was received on March 22, 2024, indicating that the SLF search was negative for the presence of Native American cultural resources in the immediate project area. The NAHC included a list of 18 Tribal representatives available to provide additional information pertaining to TCRs. To ensure that all Native American knowledge and concerns over potential TCRs that may be affected by the proposed project are addressed, a letter containing project information and requesting any additional information was sent to each Tribal representative on March 26, 2024. One response was received on March 27, 2024, from the Amah Mutsun Tribal Band of San Juan Bautista recommending cultural sensitivity training and qualified archaeological and Tribal monitoring during any earth movement if there is any cultural or historic resource sensitivity within 1 mile of the project site. No additional responses have been received to date. Correspondence related to the NAHC letters and Tribal representatives can be found in Appendix D. While unlikely, the possibility remains that TCRs in the form of archaeological resources or human remains may be encountered during project construction. FCS identified project-specific requirements based on the results of the record search and pedestrian survey. In compliance with General Plan Programs 5.1 and 5.2, FCS determined that archaeological and TCR training for construction staff shall be required prior to the start of any ground- disturbing activities in case any resources are inadvertently discovered. Furthermore, FCS determined that a qualified Archaeologist shall be present to monitor during the clearing and grubbing phases of ground disturbance to check for the inadvertent exposure of possible cultural materials. In the event exposed soils indicate cultural materials may be present, this may be followed by regular or periodic archaeological monitoring as determined by the Archaeologist. The proposed project would be required to follow the City’s standard condition of approval that all construction shall stop if TCRs are uncovered
