Consolidated Forward Inc. Landfill Page 22 Benchmarks shall be established (these could utilize monitoring well top of casing elevations), which will allow for determinations of settlement/consolidation of fill materials in closed sections of the landfill on an annual basis and following significant seismic events (Modified Mercalli Scale of V or above). In the event that changes are noted, the cause should be determined as should the effect on leachate collection and recovery systems. Repair liners and LCRS as necessary. In addition, remedial grading should be accomplished to restore the original cap's function to repel water and direct surface runoff. H. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES 61(H.2) Identified in This EIR: Night lighting with sodium lamps with sharp cutoff angles shall be used to focus light in active landfill areas (target areas) and to avoid nighttime lighting of adjacent open areas and trees. 62 (H.3) Proposed as Part of the Project: As a participant in the SJCMSCP, Forward will incorporate SJCMSCP guidelines developed to minimize effects of rodenticides to the garter snake, the brush rabbit and the Swainsori s Hawk (Appendix A of the SJCMSCP). Identified in This EIR: Rodenticides and methods of application used at the landfill shall be reviewed by a qualified biologist to determine if they reflect the most effective and safe methods for controlling rodents. That biologist shall make recommendations for improvement if needed. 63 Austin 1994 (F1.a, F1.b, and F1.c) (similar but updated), Austin 2000 (F1.a) (Creek realignment) Monitoring and maintenance for five years following construction. 64 Austin 2000 0.0 Restoration of the riparian area shall include revegetation with trees, shrubs, and grasses native to the area. Plantings shall have a minimum 80% survival after the first year, and 100 % survival thereafter, or shall have attained a 75% cover after three years and a 90 cover after five years. Plantings shall be monitored each year and maintained as necessary until success criteria have been met. In order to assure implementation, the Wetlands Mitigation and Monitoring Plan shall be modified to include these criteria. 65 Austin 2000 (F1.a) A 4.3 -acre detention basin will be constructed in the southwest corner of the project site, as depicted on the project plans (Beck 1993). 66 Austin 1994 (F2.a) (similar), Austin 2000 (F2.a) Under current project plans, 31 of the 32 valley oaks are along the perimeter of the site or are in the designated wildlife preserve adjacent to the creek and would not be removed. 67 Austin 1994 (F2.b) (similar), Austin 2000 (F2.b)
