The purpose of the program is to ensure that the mitigation measures required by the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan Amendment EIR are properly implemented. The City will monitor the mitigation measures required for development and operation of the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan Amendment EIR. The Mitigation Monitoring Checklist provides a mechanism for monitoring the mitigation measures in compliance with the EIR, and general guidelines for the use and implementation of the monitoring program are described below. MITIGATION MONITORING CHECKLIST The Mitigation Monitoring Checklist is organized by categories of environmental impacts, (e.g., Biological Resources, Land Use, Traffic/Circulation). For each impact area, the potential impacts identified in the EIR are summarized and the required mitigation measures are listed. The following items are identified for each mitigation measure to ensure proper implementation and to establish a monitoring system: Monitoring Agency, When Implemented, Implementation Mechanism and Status. A description of these items is provided below. Monitoring Agency For each mitigation measure, the Monitoring Agency is identified. The monitoring agency is responsible for ensuring that the mitigation measures are properly implemented. City departments charged with community development, resource management, infrastructure and public services are typically assigned monitoring responsibilities. If mitigation measures have been requested by an agency that has jurisdiction by law over some component of the environment, the City can request the agency to prepare a mitigation monitoring program for those mitigation measures. When Implemented The mitigation measures required for the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan EIR will be implemented at various times as development proceeds and during operation. Some measures must be implemented during construction activities, while others must be implemented when the land use is developed and in operation. For each mitigation measure, the implementation schedule is identified as Pre-Construction, During Construction and Post Construction (during operation). Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan Amendment City of Carlsbad Final Program EIR November 1995 Mitigation Monitoring Program 1 in Monitoring Mechanism The Monitoring Mechanism identifies the specific step in the development regulatory process where implementation of the measure will be required. For example, completion of geotechnical studies may be required prior to approval of the grading plan. The information in this column tells the Monitoring Agency how specific measures will be incorporated into the development process and when monitoring should occur. Status The Status column of the checklist has been intentionally left blank. City staff will use this column to make notes about the progress made in implementing each measure. Upon full implementation of the measure, the completion date will be entered. HOW TO USE THE MONITORING PROGRAM The EIR for the Carlsbad Ranch Specific Plan identifies a number of mitigation measures to reduce significant environmental impacts. Some of the mitigation measures apply to the entire project site and must be implemented before any development occurs. Other mitigation measures will be implemented during project operations. As a result, the implementation schedule for each measure varies as described in the table.

The l-5/Cannon Road interchange improvement portion of the project is located in an area that potentially contains paleontological resources. Mitigation Measures 2. A portion of site CA-SDI-8797 within the Carlsbad Ranch was identified as significant/important under City of Carlsbad and CEQA criteria and was recommended to be mitigated of impacts through avoidance (Gallegos and Kyle 1992). This site shall be placed within an open space easement and capped. Capping shall include placement of 1-2" of sand followed by 12 to 24 inches of sterile fill soil. Vegetation allowed within the fill soil should include grasses and other shallow rooted plants that will not penetrate the underlying prehistoric site. This area could also be used for a parking area, upon completion of capping. Placement of utility lines or other underground lines shall be placed outside this sensitive area. 3. Mitigation of impacts for that portion of CA-SDI- 8797 within the additional survey area shall be achieved through avoidance or the completion of a City of Carlsbad approved data recovery program. If a data recovery program is conducted for this site, the program shall be completed in compliance with the City of Carlsbad's "Cultural Resource Guidelines'.

In most cases this fossil salvage can be completed in a short period of time. However, some fossil specimens (such as a complete large mammal skeleton) may require an extended salvage period. In these instances the paleontologist (or paleontological monitor) shall be allowed to temporarily direct, divert, or halt grading to allow recovery of fossil remains in a timely manner. Because of the potential for the recovering of small fossil remains, such as isolated mammal teeth, it may be necessary in certain instances, to set up a screen-washing operation on the site. * Fossil remains collected during the monitoring and salvage portion of the mitigation program shall be cleaned, repaired, sorted, and cataloged. ' Prepared fossils, along with copies of all pertinent field notes, photos, and maps, shall be deposited (as a donation) in a scientific institution with permanent paleontological collections such as the San Diego Natural History Museum. Donation of the fossils shall be accompanied by financial support for initial specimen storage. * A final summary report shall be completed that outlines the results of the mitigation program. This report shall include discussions of the methods used, stratigraphic sections(s) exposed, fossils collected, and significance of recovered fossils.

Mitigation Measures 6. A certified paleontologist shall monitor all grading activity associated with the improvements to the I- 5/Cannon Road interchange. If buried cultural materials are unearthed during construction, work shall be halted in the vicinity of the find until a qualified paleontologist can assess its significance. If the testing demonstrates that a resource is significant, then a data recovery program will be necessary. Compliance with this measure shall be verified by Caltrans. Direct Impacts 1 . Diegan coastal sage scrub impacts should be mitigated by creation or restoration at ratios of 2:1 and 1 :1 , respectively, within Preserve Planning Area 3 or the purchase or preservation at a 1 :1 ratio within the HCP area of Carlsbad. 2. To avoid direct impacts to the area proposed as natural open space and to the proposed open space deed restriction, the boundaries of these areas should be surveyed and fenced. The erection of fencing and its proper location should be verified by a biologist or planning department representative. After project completion, permanent fencing may need to be established to prevent human intrusion into the areas.

It is anticipated that the gnat catcher pair located immediately off-site to the east of the project will be taken during construction of the municipal golf course being proposed by the City of Carlsbad. As a result, no mitigation for construction noise impacts that may occur to this pair are proposed. If through final design of the City proposed golf course it is determined that this gnat catcher pair is not taken, the following mitigation measure for noise impacts shall be implemented: During the gnatcatcher breeding season (February 15 through August 15), noise levels during grading shall not exceed 65 decibels, averaged over a one- hour period on an A-weighted decibel (dBA), measured at the edge of Diegan coastal sage scrub habitat that is occupied by the coastal California gnatcatcher. Grading could be initiated in areas adjacent to occupied gnatcatcher habitat prior to August 15 if the pair has successfully fledged young and the fledglings are at least three weeks out of the nest. Grading will be allowed adjacent to habitat occupied by unpaired individual birds. 4. Lighting should be selectively placed, shielded, and directed away from the areas listed above, in particular to avoid potential impacts to the coastal California gnatcatcher(s) east of the future LEGOLAND Carlsbad and any that may occur in the proposed open space.
