SDP 03-18. HDP 02-14. CP 02-13 The purpose of this Addendum to the adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration (approved April City Council Resolution No. 2004-096,) is to describe revisions to the Mitigation Monitoring^ Reporting Program as a result of the adoption of the City of Carlsbad's Habitat Management Plan (HMP), and to state the determination that this revision does not create any new significant environmental effects, that none of the conditions contained in Section 15162 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) have occurred, and that a subsequent Mitigated Negative Declaration is not required. Subsequent to the adoption of the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for this project, the City of Carlsbad Habitat Management Plan was adopted. The adopted HMP is a comprehensive plan to protect native plant and animal species and their habitats by the creation of a citywide, regional habitat preserve system. In return, impacts to native habitats outside the citywide, regional preserve system boundaries are allowed. The native habitat contained on this project site is not a part of, or of any biological value to the HMP citywide regional habitat preserve system, and will not jeopardize the existence or survival of any rare, threatened or endangered plant or animal species. The revision contained in this addendum eliminates Mitigation Measures 4, 5, and 6 from the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, and replaces them with the following mitigation measure: Prior to the recordation of the Final Map or issuance of a grading permit, whichever occurs first, the applicant shall pay habitat in-lieu mitigation fees consistent with the HMP and the biological report as follows, Group D: 1.12 acres of unoccupied coastal sage scrub/mixed chaparral; Group E: 2.5 acres of annual (non-native) grassland; and Group F: 2.07 acres of disturbed lands. This revision is not considered substantial or significant as it relates to the environmental effects associated with the project or the conditions contained in Section 15162 of CEQA. When City staff completed the initial environmental impact assessment for the adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration, the Habitat Management Plan was in its draft form. The analysis prepared by Affinis Environmental Services appropriately categorized the biological habitats on-site into four categories: Landscaped (2.7 acres), Disturbed (3.6 acres), Non-Native Grassland/Landscaped (0.6 acres), and Non- occupied Coastal Sage Scrub/Mixed Chaparral (1.1 acres). With the adoption of the HMP, it has now been determined that the project site (and the general area) is not identified as either an existing or proposed HMP Hardline or Standards Preserve Area and is not a part of the ultimate Preserve System. As such, the HMP habitat in-lieu mitigation fees for Habitat Types "D," "E," and "F" would apply, and it is no longer necessary to, 1) consult with the United States Fish & Wildlife Service regarding impacts to the project and permits, 2) stake and flag the lower boundary of the coastal sage scrub/mixed chaparral habitat prior to grading, and 3) acquire mitigation credits in a pre-approved mitigation bank. This revision does not create any new significant environmental effects, nor does it cause any of the conditions contained in Section 15162 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to occur, and a subsequent Mitigated Negative Declaration is not required.
