Based on the Project's avoidance of significant impacts on biological resources with <br /> implementation of mitigation measures,CDFW concludes that a Mitigated Negative Declaration <br /> is appropriate for the Project. <br /> Comment 1:Revision needed to mitigate impacts from Project phasing to less-than- <br /> significant <br /> The IS/MND does not include a description of timeframe or period(luring which construction will <br /> occur.Project activities may have additional significant biological impacts due to Project phasing <br /> over time.Phasing and the additional impacts from phasing are not discussed,analyzed,or <br /> mitigated for in the IS/MND.Projects that include multiple phases with different sections or <br /> parcels built out at different time periods or phasing that includes whole-site grading with <br /> separate sections or parcels developed at later dates have impacts over a period longer than <br /> one year.This delay in full build out of a Project allows wildlife to utilize resources that develop <br /> post-grading on vacant sections or parcels.These resources include, but are not limited to; <br />
