<br />Sequoia Ecological Consulting, Inc. <br />CalVTP Project-Specific Analysis and Addendum <br />Augustin Bernal Community Park Fuel Reduction <br />November 2025 <br />A-26 <br /> <br /> <br />STANDARD PROJECT REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE? <br />(Y/N) TIMING IMPLEMENTING <br />ENTITY <br />VERIFYING/ <br />MONITORING <br />ENTITY <br />Any material suspected of being infected must stay in the area, as close to the <br />origin point as possible. Generally, removal of P. ramorum-infected or killed oak <br />trees is only necessary if the tree is considered hazardous in a park setting. When <br />infected oaks are cut down and left on-site, the branches would be chipped and <br />cut and split, if possible, to reduce fire hazard and facilitate decomposition. If <br />chipping is not possible, material would be lopped and scattered downslope and <br />away from host species to reduce fire hazard and further spread. When debris <br />may not be left, infested material would be disposed of at an approved and <br />permitted dump facility. <br />Special-Status Plants <br />SPR BIO-7: Survey for Special-Status Plants <br />If SPR BIO-1 determines that suitable habitat for special-status plant species is <br />present and cannot be avoided, the project proponent would require a qualified <br />RPF or botanist to conduct protocol-level surveys for special-status plant species <br />with the potential to be affected by a treatment prior to initiation of the <br />treatment. The survey would follow the surveying and evaluation methods for <br />special-status plants and sensitive natural communities (CDFW 2018). <br />Surveys to determine the presence or absence of special-status plant species <br />would be conducted in suitable habitat that could be affected by the treatment <br />and timed to coincide with the blooming or other appropriate phenological <br />period of the target species (as determined by a qualified RPF or botanist), or all <br />species in the same genus as the target species would be assumed to be special- <br />status. <br />If potentially occurring special-status plants are listed under CESA or ESA, <br />protocol-level surveys to determine presence/absence of the listed species would <br />be conducted in all circumstances, unless determined otherwise by CDFW or <br />USFWS. For other special-status plants not listed under CESA or ESA, as defined in <br />Section 3.6.1 of this PEIR, surveys would not be required under the following <br />circumstances: <br />Initial <br />Treatment: Y <br />Treatment <br />Maintenance: <br />Y <br />Prior to and <br />during <br />treatment and <br />treatment <br />maintenance <br />The City of <br />Pleasanton <br />The City of <br />Pleasanton
