d) Development of an annual report summarizing monitoring results. <br /> 16) Eliminate the equestrian facilities and trail system. <br /> 17) Design and construct the sanctuary type golf course. <br /> 18) Restrict rodenticides to burrow fumigants only to control gophers and ground <br /> squirrels. <br /> 19) Grassland Pilot Restoration Projects. Perennial grass test plots will be established <br /> in locations representing a range of soil and vegetation combinations. The four <br /> habitat types are 1. open savanna, 2. shady, sandy-soil forest, and 3. buffer zones. <br /> One acre plots will be establishedand several species and techniqueswill be tested. <br /> 20) In carrying out the operations of the Project, applicant shall take no actions which <br /> violate the provisions of the California Endangered Species Act or any other laws or <br /> regulations pertaining to the protection of the Swainson's hawk. Compliance with <br /> said laws shall be the sole responsibility of the applicant, and applicant agrees to <br /> indemnify, defend, and hold the County harmless from and against any claim or <br /> action by affected state agencies as to the project's compliance with said laws. <br /> 21) Eliminate all cattle grazing and initiate the grassland restoration plan as suggested <br /> in the Resource Plan prepared by applicant. Limited grazing may be used as a tool <br /> for grassland management. <br /> 22) Restore 30 acres of riparian and habitat along the South Tracy Lake shoreline as <br /> replacement compensation for the 13 acres of previously cleared woodland. <br /> Finding (H-2) <br /> EIR Impact (4.7-2) <br /> 1) Design and construct a "Scottish-type"golf course. This area would be preserved <br /> in an enhanced state in which the rodent production on the fairways could exceed <br /> that presently occurring over the entire alternative development area. As stated in <br /> the FEIR, the Swainson's hawk is readily disturbed on its nesting sites by human <br /> presence; however, this behavior doe snot appear to extend beyond the nesting <br /> territory to foraging sites. <br /> 2) Apply the grassland restoration plan as suggested in the Resource Plan prepared <br /> by the applicant. <br /> 3) Incorporate mitigation measures proposed in the Resource Plan for the protection <br /> of the native trees on the site. This will ensure that the mature oaks and buckeye <br /> trees of the northwest savannah area are not lost. <br /> 6 <br />
