survey methodology. The purpose of the survey is to determine if any active
gnatcatcher nests are located in the area to be cleared or graded, or in CSS habitat
within 500 feet of such area. To be considered qualified, the biologist must provide
the City with a copy of a valid Gnatcatcher Recovery Permit from the USFWS.
Resolution No. P-18-08
Page 7
The scope of work shall explain the survey methodology for the biological survey
and the proposed gnatcatcher nest monitoring activities during the
clearing/grading operation. Should the report show, to the satisfaction of the
Director of Development Services, that gnatcatcher nests are not present within
the area to be graded/cleared, or within. CSS habitat located within 500 feet of said
area, approval may be granted to commence clearing/grading within the
gnatcatcher nesting season from February 15 through July 1.
If gnatcatchers are nesting within the area to be graded/cleared, or within CSS
habitat located within 500 feet of said area, no grading will be allowed during this
time until such time as mitigation measures, to the satisfaction of the City and the
USFWS are implemented.
The biologist must attend the City's pre -construction meeting for the project and
must be present onsite during all clearing/grading activities to monitor the
clearing/grading activities stay within the designated limits. During this period, the
biologist shall also monitor and survey the habitat within the area to be
cleared/graded and any habitat within 500 feet of said area for any evidence that
a gnatcatcher nest(s) exists or is being built. Weekly monitoring summaries shall
be submitted to the Planning Division. Should evidence of a gnatcatcher nest(s)
be discovered, the grading operation shall cease in that area and be directed away
from the gnatcatcher nest(s) to a location greater than 500 feet away from the
nest(s).
If grading is required to stop due to the presence of active nests, the applicant shall
be required to provide erosion control, to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. This
paragraph must be included as a note on the cover sheet of the clearing/grading
plan.
At a minimum, all protected biological areas, as shown on the grading plan, shall
be staked by a licensed surveyor and delineated with lathe and ribbon. The
applicant shall have said staking inspected by the Engineering Inspector prior to
any grading, clearing or grubbing. A written certification from the engineer of work,
or a licensed surveyor, shall be provided to the Engineering Inspector stating that
all protected areas are staked in accordance with the approved project plans.

Resolution No. P-18-08
Page 8
14. The consulting archaeologist shall direct the field monitor during grading of all
areas identified for development. During the original cutting of previously
undisturbed deposits, the archaeological monitor shall be on-site, as determined
by the consulting archaeologist, to perform inspections of the excavations. The
frequency of inspections may vary from full time to part time depending upon the
rate of excavation, the materials excavated, and the presence and abundance of
artifacts and features. Isolates and clearly non-significant deposits will be
minimally documented in the field, so the monitored grading can proceed.
15. In the event that previously unidentified historic resources are discovered, the
archaeologist shall have the authority to divert or temporarily halt ground -
disturbance operation in the area of discovery to allow for the evaluation of
potentially significant cultural resources. The archaeologist shall contact the City
at the time of discovery. The archaeologist, in consultation with the City, shall
determine the significance of the discovered resources. The City must concur with
the evaluation before construction activities will be allowed to resume in the
affected area. For significant cultural resources that are discovered, and which will
be destroyed by grading, a Research Design and Data Recovery Program to
mitigate impacts shall be prepared by the consulting archaeologist and approved
by the City before being carried out using professional archaeological methods. If
any human bones are discovered, all grading at that location must stop and the
county coroner and City shall be contacted. In the event that the remains are
determined to be of Native American origin, the Most Likely Descendant (MLD), as
identified by the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC), shall be
contacted in order to determine proper treatment and disposition of the remains.
Before construction activities are allowed to resume in the location of any
discovered significant cultural deposits, the artifacts shall be recovered, and
features recorded using professional archaeological methods. The archaeological
monitor(s) shall determine the amount of material to be recovered for an adequate
artifact sample for analysis.
16. All cultural material collected during the grading monitoring program shall be
processed and curated according to the current professional repository standards.
The collections and associated records shall be transferred, including title, to an
appropriate curation facility, to be accompanied by payment of the fees necessary
for permanent curation. A report documenting the field and analysis results and
interpreting the artifact and research data within the research context shall be
completed and submitted to the satisfaction of the City prior to the issuance of any
building permits.
17. No mechanical equipment shall be used to clear vegetation within the boundaries
of SDI -21,701. Any vegetation clearing needed to adhere to the conditions of the
fuel modification shall be completed by hand with appropriate tools to avoid
damage to any cultural features or subsurface deposits. Prior to the clearing of
the fuel modification zone, an archaeologist shall physically delineate the
northwestern boundary of SDI -21,701 with temporary stakes and flagging. This
temporary delineation shall serve as a boundary between areas where machinery
can be used for clearing and where only hand tools can be used. All work
associated with the clearing of the fuel modification zone within the boundary of
SDI -21,701 shall be monitored by an archaeologist. Should the archaeological
Resolution No. P-18-08

monitor identify any cultural materials, appropriate measures shall be
implemented, including mapping and collecting artifacts, diverting any mechanical
clearing from areas of archaeological importance, and archaeological excavations
to mitigate impacts to any disturbed cultural deposits.
18. At a minimum, all protected areas, as shown on the clearing, building site, and/or
grading plans, shall be staked by a licensed surveyor, and delineated with lathe
and ribbon. The applicant shall have said staking inspected by the Engineering
Inspector prior to any grading, clearing or grubbing. A written certification from the
