Mitigation Measures for Impacts to Biological Resources 1. Fully Protected Species:CDFW recommends that San Joaquin County conduct a thorough review of available data and habitat conditions and disclose all fully protected species with the potential to occur within or adjacent to the Project Area. The environmental document should analyze potential adverse impacts to these species, Including those related to loss of foraging habitat disruption or migratory or breeding behaviors.The environmental document should identify general avoidance, minimization,and mitigation strategies that could be Implemented to reduce indirect impacts to fully protected species.This analysis will help ensure future project-level CEQA documents are based on a well-informed and legally adequate programmatic foundation. 2. Species of Special Concern:CDFW recommends that the environmental document disclose all possible CDFW SSC that may be present in the Project Area and broadly analyze potential adverse impacts to SSC due to habitat modification, loss of foraging habitat,and/or interruption of migratory and breeding behaviors.CDFW recommends the San Joaquin County include in the analysis,general avoidance,minimization and mitigation measures that could be implemented to reduce impacts to SSC. 3. Sensitive Plant Communities:CDFW considers sensitive plant communities to be imperiled habitats having both local and regional significance. Plant communities, alliances,and associations with a statewide ranking of S-1,3-2, S-3, and S-4 should be considered sensitive and declining at the local and regional level.These ranks can be obtained by querying the CNDDB and are included in The Manual of California Vegetation(Sawyer 2009). The environmental document should include measures to fully avoid and otherwise protect sensitive plant communities from project-related direct and indirect impacts. 4. Nesting Birds: Please note that It is the project proponent's responsibility to comply with all applicable laws related to nesting birds and birds of prey. Migratory non-game native bird species are protected by international treaty under the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act(META)of 1916, as amended(16 U.S.C.703 atseq.). CDFW Implemented
