If <br /> avoidance is not possible,then measures may also include(in <br /> consultation with CDFG)passive relocation and destruction of <br /> occupied burrows during the non-breeding season(October— <br /> January).To mitigate for the loss of any burrows,the applicant <br /> shall enhance and/or create burrows at a 2:1 ratio at a protected <br /> site in San Joaquin or Stanislaus Counties.The protected site <br /> shall include 6.5 acres of foraging habitat per occupied burrow <br /> lost contiguous with occupied burrow sites to compensate for the <br /> loss of each pair of breeding owls,or single,unpaired resident <br /> owl. <br /> 4.9.3 The project will not conflict with any applicable habitat No mitigation is required. <br /> conservation plan or natural community conservation <br /> plan.This would be a less-than-significant impact.(LS) <br /> 4.9.4 The project will not have a substantial adverse effect on No mitigation is required. <br /> any riparian habitat or other Sensitive natural community <br /> identified in local or regional plans,policies,or <br /> regulations or by the CDFG or USFWS.This would be a <br /> less-than-significant impact.(LS) <br /> 4.9.5 The project will not interfere substantially with the No mitigation is required, <br /> movement of any native resident or migratory fish or <br /> wildlife species or with established native resident or <br /> migratory wildlife corridors,or impede the use of native <br /> wildlife nursery sites.This would be a less-than- <br /> significant impact. (LS) <br /> 4.9.6 The project will not conflict with any local policies or No mitigation is required. <br /> ordinances protecting biological resources.This would be <br /> a less-than-significant impact.(LS) <br /> O mini Vernalis Qua"Mining and Re amabon Project ES-21 ESA/203015 <br /> Final Environmardal Impact Report June 20013 <br />
