Sequoia Ecological Consulting, Inc. CalVTP Project-Specific Analysis and Addendum Augustin Bernal Community Park Fuel Reduction November 2025 A-17 STANDARD PROJECT REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE? (Y/N) TIMING IMPLEMENTING ENTITY VERIFYING/ MONITORING ENTITY The project proponent would require crew members and contractors to receive training from a qualified RPF or biologist prior to beginning a treatment project. The training would describe the appropriate work practices necessary to effectively implement the biological SPRs and mitigation measures and to comply with the applicable environmental laws and regulations. The training would include the identification, relevant life history information, and avoidance of pertinent special-status species; identification and avoidance of sensitive natural communities and habitats with the potential to occur in the treatment area; impact minimization procedures; and reporting requirements. The training would instruct workers when it is appropriate to stop work and allow wildlife encountered during treatment activities to leave the area unharmed and when it is necessary to report encounters to a qualified RPF, biologist, or biological technician. The qualified RPF, biologist, or biological technician would immediately contact CDFW or USFWS, as appropriate, if any wildlife protected by CESA or ESA is encountered and cannot leave the site on its own (without being handled). This SPR applies to all treatment activities and treatment types, including treatment maintenance. Sensitive Natural Communities and Other Sensitive Habitats SPR BIO-3: Survey Sensitive Natural Communities and Other Sensitive Habitats If SPR BIO-1 determines that sensitive natural communities or sensitive habitats may be present and adverse effects cannot be avoided, the project proponent would: • Require a qualified RPF or biologist to perform a protocol-level survey following the most current CDFW protocols (CDFW 2023a) of the treatment area prior to the start of treatment activities for sensitive natural communities and sensitive habitats o Sensitive natural communities would be identified using the best means possible, including keying them out using the most current edition of A Manual of California Vegetation (including updated natural communities data; CNPS 2023) or referring to relevant reports (e.g., reports found on the Vegetation Classification and Mapping Program website) Initial Treatment: Y Treatment Maintenance: Y Prior to treatment and treatment maintenance The City of Pleasanton The City of Pleasanton
