On Pages 59 and 60, the last paragraph on page 59 and the first two paragraphs on page
60 should be mvid to read au follows:
The Commission finds that the northern and eastern slopes on this Planning Area L are environmentally Rensitive habitat arcas containing coastal sage sctub or southern
maritime chaparral vegetation and are protoctcd by Scction 30240 of the Coaetd Act,
These slopes and vegetation provide valuable habitat for the gnatcatcher as well as other
sensitive species. In addition, these slopes arc &pi-wwwhicm
coiitiguous with the proposcd open space system and major habitat corridors. Therefore,
the Comdssion find8 that the environmentally sensithe habitat area andon
the eastern and northern portion of proposed Planning Am L should bc designated as open space tw part of this LCP amendment.

Dear Chaipcrson Wan:
Carlsbad LCP Amendment t-WD, Kelly Rancb '
As you know, the Departmmt of Fish and Game hag worked extansh"cly with the U.S. Fish and Wdd& Service, the Resources Agency, local goveramentJ and private landowners, to
prepare conservation plans mdcr tho California Natural Commdty Conservation Planning
(NCCP) Act. We have worked diligently over the last several years with the City of Carlabad and
participating Carlsbad landownas to prepare their Habitat Management Plan (HMP), whbh
convlilutos an NCCP subarea plan within the Multiple Habitat Consewation Program (h4HCP) for
northwestcrn Sm Diego County.
The goal of NCCP is to establish an eoosystom CoIlSCfVllfiOn program with a regional
scope to oome sensitive and diverse biological resources. inoludimg endangered species, while
allowing reasonable development conshtent with the adopted NCCP and local land use polioies.
The conservation strategy addrcsscs protection of core habitat areas, Aulotional wild& corridors
and habitat linkages which will support the fill may of native vegetation and animal species over
time.
The basic tcmts of cOflServation biology fon the fbundation of the NCCP approach to
ensuring biological divcaity, Tho preserve system should fbcw on protacting large blocks of
contiguwi habii to serve BS core reserves for WildW. The plan should avoid protecting
isolated, "postage stamp" SW habitat blocks as these have.greater edge effects iiom adjacent human uses and can actually result in higher momlity rates rcsdting in a net loss to pies. Small res- areas arc only efktive for speciality prcaenas fbr htphly endangered species that are
fbunci nowhere else, Core mwes should bc cbse together and connected through habitat
lirtkages that arc of sufficient sizc to provide liveable wildlife habii, not a narrow, tenuous
connection. Establishing preserves on a regional basis is much mre efbctivc than protecting -
perods on an individual, case-by-CW basis. A regional preserve system should contain a diverse representation of physical and environmental conditions, and should largely be ppmted brn
signiticant human dbtwbmcc.

gowwnts alou with pmperty owners to balancc sound resource pwmtion, protection and
enhanmd with development. Large projects, such as the Kelly Ranch and other coastal zone
projects, fit well with the region-wide MHCP, The Kelly Ranch plan BS agreed to by the City of
Carlsbad, the propedy owner, and the Wildlife agemias results in a fhr superior biological aonservation prom than the previously approved 1985 plan.

Prior to review by the Coastal Commission, thc particiithg groups have conducted
lengthy ncgotlations resuitii in a consansus-bascd resolution ofbiolopical and development
issues for a regional preserve system that fdly mccts the NCCP conservation standards We
raapectfblly urge the Commissbn to participte in and support the dWc10pM Ofrsgiod
preserve systems though thc NCCP process.
