in or near the site and may use the grasslands in the site for foraging. <br /> Burrowing owls could nest in the site if burrow habitat is available and <br /> western pond turtle may be present within Duck Creek. <br /> • Standard Take Avoidance measures outlined in the HCP for nesting <br /> Swainson's hawks and burrowing owl will be required, if identified <br /> necessary by SJCOG in the ITMMs. These will include pre-construction <br /> surveys for nesting Swainson's hawks within 0.5 miles of the site for <br /> construction activities between March 1 and September 15 and pre- <br /> construction surveys for nesting burrowing owls within 250 feet of the site <br /> for construction activities commencing from February 1 through August <br /> 31. If active nests are found, temporal restrictions on construction may be <br /> required. <br /> • Standard Take Avoidance measures outlined in the HCP for nesting white- <br /> tailed kite will be required, if identified necessary by SJCOG in the ITMMs. <br /> These would include pre-construction surveys for nesting white-tailed kites <br /> within 100 feet of the site for construction activities during the nesting <br /> season. If active nests are found, temporal restrictions on construction <br /> may be required. <br /> • The project will also need to obtain a buffer reduction for western pond <br /> turtle to allow work adjacent to Duck Creek. Standard Take Avoidance <br /> measures outlined in the HCP for nesting western pond turtle, primarily <br /> consisting of pre-construction surveys, are expected to be included in the <br /> ITMMs. <br /> • Due to a lack of suitable habitat, giant garter snake is not expected to <br /> occur in the site. Nevertheless, standard Take Avoidance measures for <br /> giant garter snake outlined in the HCP, primarily consisting of pre- <br /> construction surveys, are expected to be included in the ITMMs. The <br /> 3009 Pock Lane: Biology 26 November 24, 2021 <br />
