(ECORP) will conduct a biological resources assessment for the proposed 60.±- <br /> acre Gill Women's Medical Center, located at 11000 North West Lane in unincorporated San Joaquin <br /> County, California.This assessment will include a reconnaissance site visit to characterize current site <br /> conditions, an assessment of potential waters of the U.S., including wetlands, natural communities, and <br /> special-status species habitats.Additional baseline information evaluation will include soil data, California <br /> Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service species lists, special-status species <br /> distributive data, and other pertinent resources. <br /> A summary of the findings will be incorporated into the biological resources assessment report.The <br /> report will provide the regulatory context, as well as the methods, results, findings, and recommendations <br /> for mitigation measures to address potential impacts to biological resources. As part of the biological <br /> resource analysis we will also identify the likely required state and federal permits and approvals to <br /> implement the project design and construct the project. ECORP has had an on-call contract with the San <br /> Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG) since 2010 and has extensive knowledge of the San Joaquin <br /> Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan (SJMSCP) through work with the on-call <br /> contract. EOCRP will use their understanding of the SJMSCP to evaluate the projects compliance with the <br /> Plan. <br /> Assumptions: <br /> The scope of work assumes that the project boundary for the Project will be provided in AutoCAD format <br /> to ECORP at the start of preparation, and that no changes to the original project boundary or land use <br /> components occur. The biological resources assessment does not include protocol level surveys for any of <br /> the potential status species evaluated as part of this study. One round of revisions is included in this <br /> report. <br /> Task 2C: Cultural Resource Inventory <br /> ECORP will conduct a cultural resources inventory and evaluation of the proposed Gill Women's Medical <br /> Center Project property, comprised of 60.83 acres of APNs OS9-080-07, -29, and -30, located at 11000 N. <br /> West Lane in unincorporated San Joaquin County, California. <br /> The cultural resources inventory and evaluation will include a records search and literature review with the <br /> California Historical Resources Information System's (CHRIS) Central California Information Center (CCIC), <br /> a search of the Native American Heritage Commission's Sacred Lands File, and an intensive pedestrian <br /> survey of the property. This scope also includes identification, recording, and evaluation of up to three <br /> cultural resources for the National Register of Historic Places and California Register of Historical <br /> Resources. <br /> 9 <br /> ECORP Consulting,Inc. <br /> EN'l'ERONIIENTAL IONSI:LTRN-ll <br />
