BUCKEYE RANCH EIR - AMENDED MITIGATION MONITORING PLAN - PAGE 8 (July 27, 1993) Mitigation Measure Monitoring Requirements Person/Agency Responsible Timing or Frequency of Monitoring b) Control illegal trespass on the property. Once the project Visual inspection. SJCCDD PC, PO is approved the land owners will strictly regulate trespass and illegal hunting. This control will protect Swainson's hawks on the property from illegal shooting and uncontrolled disturbance. 12) Control and regulate use of pesticidesand rodenticides.Develop Develop chemical managementplan. Prepare SJCCDD FM a chemical managementplan.The planned control and regulated golf course plan. use of pesticides and rodenticides on the fairways will reduce opportunities for secondary poisoning of raptors foraging within the interfairwayspaces. Land owners have begun developingan integrated pest management plan for the property that will take into account the needs of raptors utilizing the property. Golf course design and construction can eliminate runoff from fairways and greens irrigated during the summer. 13) Schedule course construction to minimize impact on known Undertake nesting study. Visual inspection. SJCCDD PC, PO nesting Swainson's hawks. Limit disturbance for nesting hawks. Prior to project construction, the land owners will determine if Swainson's hawks are nesting on the property. If an active nest(s) is located,the owners will provide a buffer of 400 yards around the nest. No construction within this buffer will occur until the chicks have fledged, generally by the end of July. Future construction of housing sites will follow the same criteria. Once construction is completed, the land owners will limit disturbance around nesting Swainson's hawks to the best of their ability, but are not responsible if the hawks choose to nest in an area of human activity, as the species frequently does in other rural areas. 14) Provide for public education and interpretation.Develop hiking Prepare education plan outline. SJCCDD FM trail for limited access.The land owners are providing controlled access to wildlife enthusiasts along a trail system that begins at the end of Forest Lake Road (at the property's northeastern corner) and allows the public in to view South Tracy Lake. Docent-led trips and education panels will provide interpretive concepts that detail the life history of Swainson's hawk and the interrelationships between the species and humans.
