The purpose of this activity is to reduce biomass from the mature shrub community to avoid encroachment into the trail. The work will be conducted in a manner that will avoid any impacts to sensitive biological resources, including the coastal California gnatcatcher, vernal pool habitat and vernal pool species. This work consists of two components. •Component 1 includes trimming along the straight section of the trail/habitat on the northern 2/3 of the Waters End-owned portion of the preserve. The work will include (a) trimming down to no less than 6 inches in height, in a band of 2-3 feet from the trail, to be conducted with a hedge trimmer or similar manner, and (b) from the 6-inch area to the chain link fence (border between Waters End and NCTD-owned parcels) trimming will be conducted with hand trimmers in a more selective manner (detailed trimming) to reduce biomass while maintaining a more natural growth structure… No trimming will be conducted within the NCTD parcel. •Component 2 includes trimming along the curved “bubble” at the southern end of the preserve. Trimming will be performed within a two-foot wide strip inside the chain link fence (Waters End property) and vegetation between the trail and chain link fence. This trimming will be conducted with a hedge trimmer or other appropriate tool, down to no less than 6 inches in height. •Biological Monitoring – biological monitoring will be conducted by Scott McMillan (vernal pool expert and land manager) to avoid impacts to sensitive biological resources and to ensure appropriate trimming methods are used in the native coastal sage scrub. In addition, a quick nest check will be conducted prior to the work so that any existing nests can be flagged for avoidance (to give birds the opportunity to return to the nest during the next breeding season). •Work will be conducted outside of the bird breeding season and outside of the wet season when soil conditions are dry. •All trimmed material will be hauled offsite and disposed of at an appropriate disposal facility. •No heavy equipment will be used or stored within the habitat area. •Consultant will notify Habitat Management staff of the schedule prior to project initiation and coordinate directly with Parks and Recreation staff regarding trail closure, if trail closure is deemed necessary. •No trimming will be conducted on the east side of the trail. 5 DocuSign Envelope ID: F04833C1-FEB8-4267-8616-C2F6DAE1CE5D DocuSign Envelope ID: F04833C1-FEB8-4267-8616-C2F6DAE1CE5D ~ ACORD® CERTIFICATE OF LIABILITY INSURANCE 8/28/2023 I DATE (MM/DD/YYYY) ~ 8/17/2022 THIS CERTIFICATE IS ISSUED AS A MATTER OF INFORMATION ONLY AND CONFERS NO RIGHTS UPON THE CERTIFICATE HOLDER.
