Participation in the SJMSCP satisfies requirements of both the <br /> state and federal endangered species acts, and ensures that the impacts are mitigated below a <br /> level of significance in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA). <br /> Although participation in the SJMSCP is voluntary, lead agents should be aware that if project <br /> applicants choose against participating in the SJMSCP, they will be required to provide <br /> alternative mitigation in an amount and kind equal to that provided in the SJMSCP. <br /> SJCOG, Inc. has reviewed application PA-0300649 (MS). This project involves subdiving two <br /> parcels totaling 372.84 acres to create 8 forty acre parcels and 52.84 acre remainder. The project <br /> is located on the southwest corner of Gawne Road and Van Allen Road; east of Stockton. <br /> Any future structure(s) will require the conversion of Row and Field Crops (unditched) and as <br /> such should condition the project applicant(s)to participate in the SJMSCP. The current fee for <br /> the conversion of Valley Grasslands is $1,724/acres. <br /> The project is located within the unmapped land use areas and as per the requirements of the <br /> SJMSCP those projects are subject to case-by-case review by the Habitat Technical Advisory <br /> Committee(TAC) prior to participation. <br /> If you have any questions, please give me a call at (209) 468-3913. <br />
