Because of the necessity for preparing this additional archaeological work, the County' s biological consultant was able to conduct additional field work and was directed to continue field studies throughout the summer months. Thus, biological field surveys were conducted over a 10-month period from mid-October 1991 to late August 1992 . Based on this extensive additional biological field work, the entire biological section of the DEIR has been revised. In order to satisfy the requirement of Section 15087 of the CEQA Guidelines, these two (2) revised sections of the DEIR are being circulated for a 45-day public review and comment period. These two sections include the following: (1) A revised biological section which will replace the previous biological section contained in the DEIR released for review on February 18, 1992 ; and
