5/11 /2021 Mail = Palmer, Ann@Waterboards - Outlook <br /> Hi Gerald, <br /> I am following up on the call that we had on January 21 regarding the former cogeneration plant <br /> in San Joaquin. For PCB cleanup sites , EPA looks into whether the Endangered Species Act may <br /> apply. We did a preliminary search for species within the vicinity of the cogeneration plant. Below <br /> are recommendations to pass on to the RP based on our findings . <br /> Attached are two applicable species lists for the cogeneration plant in San Joaquin. The species <br /> that we think the RP may need to pay particular attention to are : <br /> • the Riparian Brush Rabbit <br /> • the Giant Garter Snake <br /> S the Valley Elderberry Longhorn Beetle <br /> • the Large-flowered Fiddleneck <br /> Depending on site- specific characteristics, the RP may be able to easily cross some or all of these <br /> species off the list. For example (this is only hypothetical), perhaps one of the species needs to <br /> live on a river and there are no rivers near the site — so that species could be crossed off the list. <br /> We have already crossed off the species that need to live in water (e . g. shrimp , fish) , assuming the <br /> cogeneration plant site doesn't have vernal pools or rivers . If that ' s incorrect and rivers and/or <br /> pools are present at the site, please let me know. <br /> Best, <br /> Carmen D.
