Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Page II-41 <br /> Forward Inc. Landfill 2018 Expansion Project <br /> defined in CDFG 2012,page 5)no less than 14 days prior to the initiation of <br /> ground disturbance. A final survey shall be conducted 24 hours prior to <br /> ground disturbance. <br /> • Ongoing rodent control measures at the landfill facility shall conform to the <br /> guidelines outlined in the SJMSCP (Appendix A) (see Impact H.10,below). <br /> • The Project Proponent may plant new vegetation or retain existing <br /> vegetation entirely covering the site at a height of approximately 36" above <br /> the ground. Vegetation should be retained until construction begins; tall <br /> vegetation will discourage colonization of the site by burrowing owl. <br /> • Alternatively,if burrowing owls are not known or suspected on a project site <br /> and the area is an unlikely occupation site for red-legged frog, San Joaquin <br /> kit fox or tiger salamander,the Project Proponent may disc or plow the entire <br /> project site to temporarily close ground squirrel burrows and render the <br /> construction site temporarily unusable by burrowing owls. <br /> • During the breeding season(February 1 through August 31), occupied <br /> burrows shall not be disturbed in accordance with the following restrictions <br /> (CDFG 2012): <br /> o Between 1 April and 15 August,minimum setbacks from occupied <br /> burrows shall be 200 m(656 ft)for low disturbance levels, and 500 m <br /> (1640 ft)for medium and high disturbance levels. <br /> o Between 16 August and 15 October,minimum setbacks from <br /> occupied burrows shall be 200 m (656 ft)for low and medium <br /> disturbance levels, and 500 m(1640 ft)for high disturbance levels. <br /> o Between 16 October and 31 March,minimum setbacks from occupied <br /> burrows shall be 50 m(164 ft)for low disturbance levels, 100 m (328 <br /> ft)for medium disturbance levels and 500 m (1640 ft)for high <br />
