City of Pleasanton Hidden Canyon Residences and Preserve Project Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program FirstCarbon Solutions 10 https://adecinnovations.sharepoint.com/sites/PublicationsSite/Shared Documents/Publications/Client (PN-JN)/2148/21480016/MMRP/21480016 Hidden Canyon Residences and Preserve Project MMRP.docx Mitigation Measures Method of Verification Timing of Verification Responsible for Verification Verification of Completion Date Initial xx If an effective no-activity zone cannot be established in either case, an experienced golden eagle Biologist will develop a site specific plan (i.e., a plan that considers the type and extent of the proposed activity, the duration and timing of the activity, the sensitivity and habituation of the eagles, and the dissimilarity of the proposed activity with background activities) to minimize the potential to affect the reproductive success of the eagles. Compensation The project proposes to preserve approximately 104.6 acres of the project site outside of the grading envelope as open space. This amount of open space would more than sufficiently compensate for any loss of golden eagle foraging habitat. Additionally, Focal Species Impact/Mitigation Scoring Sheets located in Appendix E of the EACCS were used as part of the assessment for suitability of mitigation lands for the golden eagle. Standardized mitigation ratios for the golden eagle, according to Table 3-10 in the EACCS, is 3:1 within the East Bay Hills Mitigation Area where the project and associated conservation land are sited. The majority of the area proposed for preservation consists of grassland habitat, although it also includes woodland and riparian woodland habitat. MM BIO-1e: Avoidance and Minimization Measures for American Badger: Pre-construction surveys conducted for burrowing owls (MM BIO-1i) will also be used to determine presence or absence of badgers within or immediately adjacent to the development footprint. Therefore, the burrowing owl study identified in MM BIO-1i will include American badger. If an active badger den is identified during pre construction surveys within or immediately adjacent to the construction envelope, a construction-free buffer of up to 300 feet (or other distance specified by California Department of Fish and Wildlife [CDFW]) shall be established around the den. Because badgers are known to use multiple burrows in a breeding burrow complex, a Biological Monitor shall be present on the project site City of Pleasanton, Community Development Department Planning Division for review and approval; review of documentation prepared by a qualified biologist and field verification and site inspections. Prior of issuance of grading or construction permits. City of Pleasanton Community Development Department Planning Division, USFWS, CDFW
