Landfill 2018 Expansion Project <br /> nesting season in the presence of nests that are known to be occupied. <br /> Setbacks shall be marked by brightly colored temporary fencing. <br /> Mitigation Measure H.Sb. Any observations of Swainson's hawk, Golden eagle, <br /> white-tailed kite,burrowing owl, loggerhead shrike and/or California horned lark <br /> during the falconry program shall be recorded and monitored by the falconer. If any <br /> interactions (i.e. chasing)between the trained falcons and Swainson's hawks or <br /> other special status bird species are observed, this shall be documented and reported <br /> to the USFWS Migratory Bird Treaty Office and CDFW within 48 hours of <br /> occurrence. Appropriate additional measures to avoid impacts to special status birds <br /> shall be determined through consultation with the USFWS Migratory Bird Treaty <br /> Office and CDFW. <br /> H.6. Impacts to Mitigation Measure H.6.Preconstruction surveys, consistent with the MBTA and Less than <br /> Migratory Bird Species. the SJMSCP, shall be conducted for nesting birds during the nesting season (i.e., Feb. Significant <br /> 1 —September 1). Appropriate measures to avoid impacts to nesting birds shall be <br /> determined through consultation with the USFWS Migratory Bird Treaty Office and <br /> CDFW. <br /> H.7. Temporary Impacts Less than significant. None required. Less than <br /> to Foraging Special- Significant <br /> status Bat Species. <br /> H.B. Loss of Agricultural Mitigation Measure H.B. The project shall comply with the SJMSCP mitigation Less than <br /> Fields, Nonnative requirements for the conversion of row and field crop lands (SJCOG 2000). Under Significant <br /> Annual Grassland and the SJMSCP (2000), each acre of Swainson s hawk habitat (i.e., Agricultural Habitat <br /> Ruderal Vegetation, and Lands) converted to non-open space uses would be mitigated by the establishment <br /> Freshwater Emergent of 1 acre of Row and Field Crop/Riparian Preserve (a 1:1 mitigation ratio).This <br /> Wetland. measure would apply to the 8.6 acres of land to be developed in the southern <br /> portion of the property. <br />
