Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Page II-35 Forward Inc. Landfill 2018 Expansion Project jurisdictional area to be impacted shall be established within te relocated segment of the South Branch of the South Fork of Littlejohn's Creek(1:1 in-kind replacement of wedands jurisdictional area impacted by the creek relocation), and if required by permit conditions, additional compensatory mitigation will be purchased from an USACE,RWQCB and/or CDFW-approved wetland mitigation bank.These mitigation components are discussed further below. Onsite Replacement of Wetland Habitat A Wefland Creek Channel Mitigation and Monitoring Plan shall be prepared and submitted for agency review to ensure a "no net loss" of wildlife value or acreage of creek habitat wetlands. At a minimum,the Plan shall include the creation of the equivalent(in-kind) acreage of wetlands jurisdictional habitat within the relocated segment of the South Branch of the South Fork of Littlejohn's Creek. The Concept Design Report(Questa 2017)indicates that approximately 1.87 acres of we creek habitat would be created in the longer,relocated creek channel, so an increase in wet1cmd creek habitat(1.87 acres vs. 1.25 acres) is anticipated. The Project Sponsor shall ensure that the mitigation area,along with an appropriate upland buffer, are preserved in perpetuity via recordation of a deed restriction a easement, or similar easement deed re.-StrietiPWI. The 1"'�a Creek Channel Mitigation and Monitoring Plan shall include the following details: • The location(s) of mitigation areas, including the types and extent of each habitat type to be created. • Mitigation for loss of existing wetlands jurisdictional area shall at a minimum include the creation of equivalent acreage of wetlands jurisdictional area habitat present within the channel(as determined by the re-verified jurisdictional delineation). Mitigation wetlands habitats shall replace the existing functions
