adequate information to permit listing or rejection for state or federal status, such <br />as those included on List 3 in the CNPS Inventory. <br />The likelihood of occurrence of listed, candidate, and other special -status species <br />in the work areas is generally low. Table 3 provides a summary of the listing <br />status and habitat requirements of special -status species that have been <br />documented in the greater project vicinity or for which there is potentially suitable <br />habitat in the greater project vicinity. This table also includes an assessment of <br />the likelihood of occurrence of each of these species in the site. The evaluation <br />of the potential for occurrence of each species is based on the distribution of <br />regional occurrences (if any), habitat suitability, and field observations. <br />SPECIAL -STATUS PLANTS: Twelve (12) species of special -status plants were <br />identified in the CNDDB (2021) search: alkali milk -vetch (Astragalus tener var. <br />tener), heartscale (Atriplex cordulata var. cordulata), big tarplant (Blepharizonia <br />plumosa), watershield (Brasenia schreberi), palmate-bracted salty bird's -beak <br />(Chloropyron plamatum), recurved larkspur (Delphinium recurvatum), San <br />Joaquin spearscale (Extriplex joaquinana), woolly rose mallow (Hibiscus <br />lasiocarpos var. occidentalis), delta tule pea (Lathyrus jepsonii var. jepsonii), <br />Sanford's arrowhead (Sagittaria sanfordii), Suisun marsh aster (Symphotrichum <br />lentum), and saline clover (Trifolium hydrophilum) (Table 3 and Attachment B). <br />No additional special -status species are identified in the USFWS IPaC Trust <br />Report (Attachment B). <br />Special -status plants generally occur in relatively undisturbed areas in vegetation <br />communities such as vernal pools, marshes and swamps, seasonal wetlands, <br />riparian scrub, and areas with unusual soils. All of the special -status plants <br />identified in Table 3 occur in habitat types that do not occur in the site. The site <br />contains ruderal grassland species that is routinely disked, The site has been <br />historically farmed for decades and is not suitable for special -status plants. Due <br />to its ephemeral flow regime, Beihle Drain does not contain marsh or swamp <br />habitat required by several of the special -status plant species in Table 3; most of <br />2706 Pock Lane: Biology 12 November 23, 2021 <br />
