Inclusion of the Preserve Area in the Habitat Management Plan The proposed Veteran's Park preserve area associated with the Poinsettia 61 Project (Project) off-site mitigation contains a total of 1.92 acres of agricultural land, slated to be restored to CSS habitat and approximately 1.18 acres of undisturbed preserved CSS habitat, for a total of 3 .1 acres of native open space to be included in the Carlsbad Habitat Management Plan (HMP; City of Carlsbad 1999, finalized 2004) Preserve. This Preserve Management Plan (PMP) has been prepared to guide the long-term management of the preserved open space areas (preserve) within the City-owned Veteran's Park (Figures 1 and 2), adjacent to Macario Canyon Open Space and a future City park. The City of Carlsbad (City) is a member of the North County Multiple Habitat Conservation Plan (MHCP; San Diego Association of Governments 2003) and has adopted an HMP, which is a subarea plan under the MHCP. The MHCP is a comprehensive, multiple jurisdictional planning tool designed to create, manage, and monitor ecosystem preserve areas in northwestern San Diego County. The HMP is a citywide implementation plan that outlines how the City, in coordination with the Wildlife Agencies, will preserve and protect native biological resources, while allowing for development that is consistent with City's General Plan. The objectives of the HMP are to assemble a preserve system that conserves the full range of vegetation types with the focus on rare species and habitat; conserves areas capable of supporting covered species in perpetuity; and maintains functional wildlife corridors and habitat linkages. Under the HMP, a portion of the Project area, as well as surrounding lands, are within a Focused Planning Area (FPA) of the City. FPA boundaries were created based on the existing distribution of vegetation communities and sensitive species. The FPAs were further broken down into HMP cores, linkages and Special Resource Areas. 1.1.1 Core 4 Description This preserve area associated with the Project is located within the Local Facilities Management Zone 8, in the central portion of Core Area 4. The HMP describes the Core 4 Focused Planning Area (FPA) as follows: The Core 4 FPA, (approximately 1,063 acres), is located in west-central Carlsbad, includes Agua Hedionda Lagoon and upland habitats immediately east of the lagoon. Critical vegetation communities within this Core include saltmarsh, freshwater marsh, and riparian scrub. Major areas of coastal sage scrub are also present, as are small patches of grassland, southern maritime chaparral, southern mixed chaparral, and coastal sage scrub/chaparral. Critical populations of DUDEK 8058 March 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve saltmarsh skipper butterfly, light-footed clapper rail, western snowy plover, California least tern, and Belding's Savannah sparrow occur in the estuarine habitats associated with Agua Hedionda Lagoon. This coastal wetland is also critical for American peregrine falcon and California brown pelican. A major population of wart-stemmed ceanothus is associated with southern maritime chaparral east of the lagoon. Core 4 has linages to Core 2, Core 3, Core 6, and Core 8 (Carlsbad 2004). Figure 3 provides an overview of the proposed and surrounding development, proposed new preserve, and surrounding existing HMP hardline areas. 1.2 Preserve Area History Veteran's Park is a City-owned, 19.1-acre parcel that sits adjacent to the Macario Canyon open space to the west. Veteran's Park is characterized as open space in the City HMP. It sits adjacent to single- and multifamily residential development to the north and east, Faraday A venue and the Crossings Golf Course to the south, and open space to the west. Macario Canyon is a 21.3-acre parcel that is primarily located adjacent to the Veteran's Park open space, north of Faraday Avenue. The preserve area is owned by the City; the preserve area will remain in City ownership throughout the long-term management of the site. Lennar Homes is the primary funding source for habitat restoration installation, maintenance, and monitoring, and the preserve endowment for the off-site mitigation areas associated with the Poinsettia 61 Project, which includes the Veteran's Park preserve area. 1.3 Purpose of this Management Plan The purpose of this Plan is to: • Meet the requirements for environmental documentation to comply with state and federal statutes and regulations; • Guide management and monitoring of habitats, species, and programs described herein to achieve the City's obligation to protect and enhance wildlife values under the MHCP, HMP, and Implementing Agreement; • Guide appropriate public uses of the preserve area; • Serve as a budget planning aid for annual budget preparation; • Provide a descriptive inventory of native plant and wildlife species and habitats, which occur on or use the preserve area. DUDEK 2 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve 2 VETERAN'S PARK 2.1 General Open Space Site Characteristics The 3.1 acre preserve discussed herein is located in unincorporated HMP areas that are adjacent to both Veteran's Park and Macario Canyon open space. Because the portions that are slated for restoration and in-perpetuity preservation will be incorporated into the Veteran's Park open space, the 3.1 acre preserve discussed herein is referred to as the Veteran's Park preserve (preserve). Within the 3.1 acre preserve area, topography is generally a plateau, transitioning to south-facing slopes. Leading up to the preserve, most slopes are steep and south-facing ranging in elevation from 80 to 240 feet above mean sea level (AMSL) (CNLM and Tierra Data 2016). The preserve currently is dominated by annual grassland that was historically agricultural land, and coastal sage scrub vegetation communities sustaining various levels of disturbance. 2.2 Land Use The dominant land use characterized at the preserve, Veteran's Park and Macario Canyon is open space. A City park is planned for the portions of the open space area along the Faraday A venue. Park planning details are unknown at this time. 2.3 Soil Characteristics Soils found within Veteran's Park are comprised of fine sandy loams. Specifically, soils found within the preserve include: Huerhuero loam, 2 to 9% slopes; Las Flores loamy fine sand, 15 to 30% slopes, and 15 to 30% slopes, eroded; Loamy alluvial land-Huerhuero complex, 9 to 50% slopes, severe; and Marina loamy coarse sand, 2 to 9% slopes (USDA 2017). 2.4 Fire History There have been no recorded fires at Veteran's Park. 2.5 Ownership and Preserve Management The Veteran's Park preserve area is owned by the City; the Veteran's Park preserve area will remain in City ownership throughout the long-term management of the site. The City is responsible for long-term management, which will be implemented through a contract with a qualified long-term manager. This contract is administered by the Parks and Recreation Department. Currently, the long-term manager for City-owned properties is the Center for Natural Lands Management (CNLM). DUDEK 3 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve 2.6 Restrictive Covenant Compliance The Restrictive Covenant (RC), a type of Conservation Easement, describes the permitted and prohibited uses of the preserve. This document is anticipated to be approved by January 2018, and will be recorded thereafter. The following are permitted uses: • Habitat enhancement and restoration activities; • Public access along designated trails; • Debris and exotic species removal; • Installation of signs and fences as needed. The following are prohibited uses: • Supplemental watering, unless for habitat restoration; • Use of pesticides or fertilizers that are not consistent with the City's Integrated Pest Management Plan; • Incompatible fire protection activities; • Use of off-road vehicles unless necessary for restoration/maintenance; • Livestock grazing or other agriculture; • Residential, commercial, retail, institutional, or industrial uses; • Construction or placement of buildings or other improvements; • Dumping of soil, trash, refuse, etc.; • Planting or introducing non-native plants or animals; • Filling, dumping, excavating, etc.; • Altering the topography; • Removing, destroying or cutting trees, shrubs, or other vegetation, unless required for trail maintenance or habitat management; • Manipulating, impounding or altering natural watercourses; • Fuel modification zones. DUDEK 4 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve Compliance monitoring will be conducted on an annual basis to document that the requirements and stipulations in the RC are being followed. The compliance monitoring visit is conducted in conjunction with other regularly scheduled visits and includes filling a form to document that the preserve is in compliance with the RC and taking photographs at the specified photo monitoring points as described in Section 4.1.

Vegetation communities and land cover types found within the preserve are depicted in Table 1. Table 1 Vegetation Communities and Land Cover Types within the Veteran's Park Study Area Vegetation/Land Cover Type I Total* Special-Status Upland Vegetation Communities Coastal Sage Scrub I 1.18 Upland Vegetation Communities Annual Grassland I 1.92 Total* I 3.10 acres Note: Numbers may not sum to total due to rounding. 3.1.1 Coastal Sage Scrub Coastal sage scrub is a soft, low shrubland dominated by drought-deciduous species -California sagebrush (Artemisia californica) and California buckwheat (Eriogonum fasciculatum) -with scattered evergreen shrubs, including laurel sumac (Malosma laurina). Canopy height ranges from 0 to I meter. The shrub layer occurs typically on low moisture-availability sites (Holland 1986). Coastal sage scrub species occur within the Veteran's Park preserve area that borders Macario Canyon. These areas support a high diversity of coastal sage scrub perennial species, including California sagebrush, black sage (Salvia melifera), toyon (Heteromeles arbutifolia), lemonade berry (Rhus integrifolia), coastal sagebrush, buckwheat (Eriogonum fasiculatum), and laurel sumac (Malosma laurina). Annual species found in this area include deerweed (Acmispon glaber), tarweed (Deinandrafasciculata), and telegraph weed (Heterotheca grandiflora). Coastal sage scrub is considered a special-status vegetation community due its rarity and high value for wildlife. DUDEK 7 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve 3.1.2 Annual Grasslands Annual grassland are comprised of a dense to sparse cover of annual grasses that are often associated with numerous species of showy-flowered, native annual forbs ("wildflowers"), especially in years of favorable rainfall (Holland 1986). In San Diego County the presence of Avena, Bromus, Erodium, and Brassica are common indicators. In some areas, depending on past disturbance and annual rainfall, annual forbs may be the dominant species; however, it is presumed that grasses will soon dominate. Germination occurs with the onset of the late fall rains; growth, flowering, and seed-set occur from winter through spring. With a few exceptions, the plants are dead through the summer-fall dry season, persisting as seeds. On the Veteran's preserve site, annual grasslands and associated forbs dominate areas that are slated for restoration (Dudek 2017). Annual grassland areas on the site are regularly disked by the City. 3.2 Special-Status Plant Species Within the Veteran's Park preserve, no special-status plant species were observed. Rare plant surveys were not conducted within the preserve because a majority of the preserve is regularly disked to prevent exotic/invasive species encroachment into the adjacent open space areas. Areas proposed for restoration, associated with the Project, are either regularly disked or are considered disturbed due to over 80% invasion by non-native species, such as black mustard (Brassica nigra). Coastal sage scrub vegetation communities are present adjacent to proposed restoration areas, but no special-status plants species were observed during reconnaissance site visits. 3.3 Special-Status Wildlife Species No HMP-covered wildlife species were detected during reconnaissance surveys conducted at the Veteran's Park preserve area. However, the federally threatened/HMP-covered coastal California gnatcatcher has been observed on adjacent parcels, and is presumed to use the coastal sage scrub portions of the site for dispersal, foraging, and breeding. 3.4 Threats Threats to the native species and habitats present within the preserve could result primarily from adverse "edge effects" from the maintained public trail. Edge effects may include trampling by humans traveling off trail, invasion by exotic plants and animals, exposure to urban pollutants (fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and other hazardous materials), increase or decrease in natural fire regime, soil erosion, and hydrologic changes (e.g., surface and groundwater level and quality). DUDEK 8 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve Non-native plant species pose a significant threat to the preserve. Annual grasslands adjacent to the preserve support non-native annual weed species, which could contribute non-native seed to the preserve, if the site is not disked prior to the development of seeds. Invasions from invasive non-native species such as mustard and star thistle (Centaurea melitensis) are likely to occur. The land manager will continue to work with the City of Carlsbad and any other relevant agencies, to manage and monitor any issues that may arise from public trails and access, including but not limited to pet waste, erosion, non-native vegetation, illegal trails, and homeless encampments. Education and enforcement will be a continued partnership between the land manager and the City to prevent and prohibit illegal or illicit activities, and to minimize any threats to habitat. Additional signage will be posted along the trail in sensitive resource areas. During the monthly patrols, any signs of human trespassing will be noted and maintenance efforts will be allocated to preventing encroachment into the preserve. Should unexpected erosion and/or excessive non-native encroachment occur, these preserve areas will be restored and/or treated by the preserve manager utilizing the contingency funds that have been established through the endowment. DUDEK 9 8058 June 2018 DUDEK Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 10 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve 4 MANAGEMENT AND MONITORING GOALS AND ASMDS This section provides goals and tasks in the form of Area Specific Management Directives (ASMDs) to direct management of and monitoring within this preserve. The monitoring and management of the preserve follows the guidelines set forth in the Open Space Management Plan (OSMP) (City of Carlsbad 2007), Section F(2) and F(3) of the Carlsbad HMP (City of Carlsbad 2004 ), the City of Carlsbad Preserves (CNLM and Tierra Data Inc. 2016), the Guidelines for Preserve Management (T AIC 2009), and the Management and Monitoring Strategic Plan for Conserved Lands in Western San Diego County (SDMMP 2017). Long-term preserve management and implementation of ASMDs will be the responsibility of the Preserve Manager. The management and monitoring tasks prescribed for the preserve are detailed below. Upon issuance of the grading permit, restoration shall be installed in the fall 2018, which shall begin the 120 day plant establishment period and the long-term maintenance and monitoring period. Long-term management will be initiated upon written issuance of the mitigation obligation sign-off by the resource and regulatory agencies and City. Prior to in-perpetuity preservation, initial mitigation/restoration tasks that will be conducted within the preserve include, but are not limited to, weed removal, temporary irrigation use for plant/seed establishment (installation and removal), and restoration of the agricultural and disturbed habitat to coastal sage scrub (Figure 4). The mitigation/restoration is discussed in detail in the Final Conceptual Restoration Plan for the Poinsettia Project (Dudek 2017), and is the responsibility of Lennar Homes. The mitigation/restoration areas will not be included within the preserve until the restoration has met the final performance standards and been issued a written letter of approval/sign-off by the City and applicable resource agencies. 4.1 Biological Monitoring and Management The biological goals detailed in this PMP involve monitoring and management of the post-mitigation and sign-off condition of the restoration and open space areas incorporated into the preserve. 4.1.1 Long-Term Habitat Management and Monitoring Goal 1: Maintain post-mitigation restoration and open space areas, including approximately 3.1 acres of Diegan coastal sage scrub, to provide habitat for species in perpetuity. Objective 1.1: Evaluate threats to native vegetation communities by monitoring changes over time. Use monitoring results to prioritize and implement a management strategy. Within the first year of management, general vegetation and wildlife surveys shall be conducted to establish baseline conditions. This task shall be accomplished within a scheduled monthly DUDEK 11 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve monitoring visit and shall be conducted by a qualified biologist. The preserve will be visually inspected for changes in non-native cover, pest infestations, habitat damage, and overall health of the habitat communities during regular patrol, maintenance, and surveying activities. Post-fire vegetation succession will also be monitored to ensure that the habitat continues to recover as predicted. If monitoring shows substantial changes that could result in degradation of the habitat values (i.e., increase in non-native cover, invasive species/pests, increases in erosion rills/gullies, human-caused habitat damage, etc.), appropriate management actions will be developed and implemented. If necessary, the area will be monitored more closely until it has stabilized naturally or as a result of remedial management measures. ASMD 1.1.1 General Vegetation Monitoring A vegetation monitoring program will be conducted during the first year of long-term management throughout the preserve and every five years thereafter using the following methodology or other suitable method acceptable to the City: • Vegetation will be mapped on a high quality 1 inch= 100 feet scale aerial image and will be updated using the most current vegetation classification system for San Diego County. Vegetation mapping will be conducted concurrently with quantitative monitoring at five year intervals. At this time, it is anticipated that vegetation communities will be classified to conform to the List of Alliances and Associations (CDFG 2010), which follows A Manual of California Vegetation (Sawyer et al. 2009) .. This mapping will be verified by ground- truthing. A minimum mapping unit of 0.25 acre will be used. The final mapping will be digitized and uploaded into a GIS database. • At least four permanent photo-documentation stations will be mapped on an aerial photo using Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) equipment. These locations will be selected to capture large areas of contiguous habitat to allow for monitoring of visual changes in habitat quality and quantity, and will be utilized at least on an annual basis. Photo point locations will be established according to the Preserve Manager in order to obtain the best view. • Three, 25-meter-long permanent point-intercept transects will be established in the preserve areas and mapped with a GPS. The location of the transects shall be determined randomly, but shall be distributed throughout each of the upland and riparian vegetation communities present. In addition, all plant species present within 2.5-meter of the transects will be recorded. All data will be utilized to determine total percent plant cover, percent native cover, percent non-native cover, overall species richness and diversity. Transect monitoring shall take place in the spring, and every five years concurrent with the vegetation mapping described below. DUDEK 12 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve ASMD 1.1.2 Post-Fire Monitoring Post-fire monitoring will be conducted per the established post-fire protocol, based on the Blossom Valley Habitat Conservation Area Postfzre Monitoring (Tierra Data Inc. 2005). Post- fire monitoring will be conducted annually for five years following any fire that occurs in the preserve, using the following approach: • Qualitatively characterize and monitor plant community boundaries in relation to their expected location, the presence/abundance of invasive plant species, and other disturbance processes. The monitoring should include mapping of special-status species occurrences. • Quantitatively monitor the post-fire conditions using 25-meter-long permanent point- intercept transects. The location of the transects shall be determined randomly but shall be distributed throughout burned areas. In addition, all plant species present within 2.5- meter of the transects will be recorded. All data will be utilized to determine total percent plant cover, percent native cover, percent non-native cover, overall species richness and diversity. Transect monitoring shall take place in the spring, and each year during the post-fire monitoring period. • Monitor the trajectory of recovery to determine if succession is proceeding m the predicted way. • Monitor the fuel loads within the natural range of variation within the preserve boundary or in concert with partners in other management areas. Maintain sufficient information on fuel condition to be able to communicate to local residents in the wildland-urban interface about fuel condition. • Characterization of the post-fire areas shall be recorded on an aerial map of the particular post-fire area. The site assessments shall also be documented in an annual memo, which shall be submitted to the City each year that post-fire monitoring occurs. Objective 1.2: Control authorized and unauthorized access to the preserve to prevent damage to native vegetation communities and negative effects to wildlife. No portions of the site shall be legally open to public access, except on the existing City trail (Figure 5). However, unauthorized access to the preserve area is easily accomplished at this time. Recreational uses adjacent to the preserve are proposed to be uninterrupted by the establishment of the preserve. Threats from continued and frequent adjacent public use may cause impacts to native habitat from trampling, unauthorized trails, trash and dumping, and impacts to wildlife from unleashed dogs. DUDEK 13 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve ASMD 1.2 Access Control and General Habitat Management • Signs will be installed for access control and public education around the perimeter of the open space preserve, as well as in sensitive resource areas identified by the land manager. Each sign will identify that the property is protected habitat, provide contact information, a list of illegal activities, and other pertinent management information for the public and the HOA. Four small (14 inches by 20 inches) aluminum signs displaying pertinent restrictive information, such as "Habitat Conservation Area," "No Trespassing," and "No brush management activities beyond this sign" will be installed on posts at potential public access points. Initial installation of signs and replacement will be the responsibility of the Preserve Manager. Should unexpected erosion and/or excessive non-native encroachment occur, these preserve areas will be restored and/or treated by the preserve manager utilizing the contingency funds that have been established through the endowment. Regular (at least monthly) patrols will be conducted by the Preserve Manager to enforce preserve rules and regulations, and to look for signs of unauthorized access, including trash and debris, unauthorized trails, presence of squatting/transient use, and off-leash dogs. The preserve will also be inspected for damage or vandalism to signs or fencing. Any signs of human trespassing will be noted. The Preserve Manager will coordinate closely with the City Ranger Program, and any illegal trespass, transient use, vandalism, and other illegal activities will be reported to the Carlsbad Police Department, or other relevant city department, such as Parks, Public Works, etc. • Trail maintenance, fencing, signage, and kiosks will be the responsibility of the City Parks and Recreation Department; however, the Preserve Manager will work closely with city staff to ensure a coordinated effort to enforce trail regulations and protect habitat. • General habitat management will include trash and debris removal, unauthorized trail closure, and fence and signage repair and installation on an as-needed basis. The land manager and the City will work together on identifying and rectifying any maintenance needs, and on education and enforcement where needed. Habitat enhancement or minor repair of damaged habitat ( e.g., weed removal, seeding, tilling, and/or planting) will be performed as necessary. Objective 1.3: Control invasive non-native plant species to provide for the continued health and persistence of native vegetation communities Currently, invasive, non-native plants are a consistent problem within much of the adjacent preserve. Invasion by non-native species should be lessened through the mitigation/restoration DUDEK 14 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve program, since non-natives within the mitigation/restoration areas will be controlled for five consecutive years. Priority for ongoing weed removal should be given to species considered to be invasive by the California Invasive Plant Council (Cal-IPC High and Moderate category species) (Cal-lPC 2013) or species that are known locally to be a potential threat. ASMD 1.3 Weed Control Prioritization of and methodology of invasive species control will be consistent with the San Diego Management and Monitoring Program (SDMMP) Invasive Plant Strategic Plan (ISPS) (SDMMP 2017). A general guide for target exotic/invasive plants that should be controlled is included in Table 2 of this PMP. The most common non-native species noted within the open space areas include, but are not limited to, black mustard (Brassica nigra), fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) and castor bean (Ricinus communis). For the purposes of open space preserve management and maintenance measures, exotic weed species requiring control are divided into two groups; Low Tolerance Species (Level 1-3) and No Tolerance Species (Level 4-5; Table 2) (SDMMP 2017). In general, Low Tolerance Species are those that could potentially pose a threat to the persistence of native habitats, but are usually limited in distribution and/or can be eradicated within focal areas. No Tolerance Species with Level 4 and 5 and are considered strong invaders, are abundant and widespread, and/or have the potential to displace native habitat. Table 2 Locally Common Weed and Invasive/Exotic Species to be Controlled within the Preserve Low Tolerance Species No Tolerance Species Level 1-3 Level4--5 Common Name Scientific Name Common Name Scientific Name Mustard Brassica spp.; Hirschfeldia Tree tobacco Nicotiana glauca incana Russian thistle Sa/sofa tragus Radish Raphanus sativus Yellow star thistle Centaurea so/stitialis Crown daisy Glebionis coronaria Maltese star thistle Centaurea me/itensis Pampas grass Cortaderia selloana Veldt grass Ehrharta longiflor; Ehrharta ice plant, hottentot-fig Carpobrotus spp.; calycina Mesembryanthemum spp. Globe chamomile Oncosiphon pi/u/iferum English ivy Hedera helix Non-native annual grasses Bromus spp., Avena spp., Sweet fennel Foeniculum vulgare Vulpia myuros Common Mediterranean Schismus barbatus Stinkwort Dittrichia graveolens grass Exotic/invasive plant species control will be an ongoing process in perpetuity. Eradication may include removal by hand, weed whip, mowing or, if necessary, application of City-approved DUDEK 15 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve herbicides according to the most current Integrated Pest Management (1PM) plan. Herbicides may only be applied by a licensed pesticide applicator under the supervision of a qualified biologist. The least toxic method that effectively removes the exotic/invasive should be used, based on the most effective method for the species and stage of plant development. Exotic/invasive plant species control will be conducted twice per year during the rainy season, of more often as needed to keep weeds at manageable levels. In addition, the following protocols should be utilized when controlling exotic/invasive plant species: • All debris and slash generated from the weed removal activities will be disposed of off site in a legally acceptable manner. • Invasive/exotic species shall be controlled when plants are young (i.e., 6-10 inches tall) and prior to the formation of seed heads. • If large areas require hand weeding (e.g., areas over 0.25 acre), seeding the area with a native seed mix appropriate to the site and locally collected should be considered to inhibit re-colonization of the area by non-native plant species. Objective 1.4: Protect habitat from degradation caused by erosion by implementation of an erosion control program. Any significant unnatural erosion occurring within the open space preserve shall be repaired promptly after it is detected, to minimize additional soil loss. For the purposes of this document, unnatural erosion is considered to be erosion that may occur as a direct or indirect result of human activity. ASMD 1.4 Erosion Control The following erosion control measures/tactics shall be implemented, as necessary, to prevent recurring erosion problems. • Excessive erosion within the preserve will be addressed through Best Management Practices (BMP) such as use of straw wattles with biodegradable netting, silt fencing, coconut fiber blankets, re-seeding bare areas, and other measures, as appropriate. BMPs that maximize the use of native and/or biodegradable material should be selected whenever feasible. Non-biodegradable material, such as silt fencing should be removed once the area has been stabilized. All BMPs will be weed free and use of nylon netting is prohibited, as it can trap and kill small wildlife. • Controlling access to the preserve, as outlined in the Objective 1.2 section above, and through public education will help to minimize erosion from unauthorized foot trails. DUDEK 16 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve • Reparation of any erosion damage to the preserve caused by erosion or slope failure outside of the preserve (e.g., along manufactured slopes) is the responsibility of the City. 4.1.2 Long-Term Native Species Management and Monitoring Goal 2a: Sustain populations and diversity of native plants and wildlife, including special status species, at or above baseline levels. Objective 2.1: Implement management and monitoring to protect native habitats, ensure the persistence of special status plants and animals, and reduce or eliminate threats to any special status species. No HMP-covered plant species were observed on site. Although the California gnatcatcher was not observed on site during reconnaissance surveys, suitable habitat for the California gnatcatcher is present throughout the preserve, therefore it is assumed there is a high potential for California gnatcatcher to use the site for dispersal, foraging, and breeding. ASMD 2.1.1 Species Monitoring • Conduct regular (at least monthly) patrols to protect sensitive species habitat from human impacts as described in Section 4.1.1. Signs of loss or degradation to any special status species and/or habitat shall be qualitatively evaluated during all patrols, so any issues that are present prior to the 5-year survey period will be observed and an adaptive management strategy will be developed, as necessary. • Conduct vegetation monitoring pursuant to Section 4.1.1. • A void activities that may disturb special status species during the breeding season (February 15 through August 31 ), such as exotic/invasive plant species removal that involves gas-powered machinery (e.g., chainsaws and weed whippers). • Conduct wildlife monitoring during regular patrols. Monitoring shall include, but not be limited to, monitoring the presence of gnatcatcher and other birds, reptiles, amphibians and mammals, assessing tracks, scat, burrows, and other signs of specific wildlife use. • Conduct general biological surveys every five years to document all species that occur on site and locations of special status plants and wildlife. Submit this information to the city as part of the preserve-specific annual report, along with the GIS shapefiles. • Conduct California gnatcatcher focused surveys annually for three years (baseline surveys), and thereafter every 9 years, consistent in timing with the citywide monitoring program. The focused surveys will be conducted by a biologist holding a valid lO(a) DUDEK 17 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve permit. Focused surveys will consist of three site visits during the breeding season, with surveys conducted during February through August as deemed most appropriate by the biologist, with at least a seven-day interval between site visits, in accordance with USFWS survey requirements (USFWS 1997) during the baseline surveys, and will follow the protocol developed for the citywide monitoring program during subsequent years (TAlC 2009). A report detailing the results of the focused survey will be prepared and to the City as an appendix to the preserve-specific annual report. ASMD 2.1.2 Species Management • Remove non-native plant species that degrade sensitive species habitat consistent with Section 4.1.1. This habitat management will benefit sensitive species occurring on site. • Conduct appropriate management actions necessary to protect sensitive species, based on the results of the targeted species monitoring and threats assessment. 4.2 Public Outreach and Coordination 4.2.1 Public Education to Promote Preserve Objectives Goal 1 a: Limit public access and use in order to be compatible with the conservation goals and obligations of the HMP and MHCP, while providing public outreach and education on the importance of the preserve. Objective 1.1: Implement management and monitoring to protect native habitats and wildlife movement corridors. ASMD 1.1.1 Outreach Program • The Preserve Manager will develop an education program and/or hand-out materials targeted at recreational users and the residence/HOAs of adjacent neighborhoods and may attend board meetings occasionally as necessary to discuss issues related to unauthorized access, fencing, erosion, etc. • The Preserve Manager will be expected to interface with the adjacent residents to educate them about the preserve and to solve problems (may include educational materials, attendance at Board Meetings, etc.). • The Preserve Manager will post and maintain appropriate signage. Each sign will identify that the property is protected habitat, provide contact information, a list of illegal activities, and other pertinent information (see Section 4.1.1 ). DUDEK 18 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve ASMD 1.1.1 Public Access Management and Monitoring • The Preserve Manager will patrol and enforce access rules and regulations on a regular basis (at least monthly). • The Preserve Manager will allow access to the preserve for science, research, and volunteer habitat management (trash removal, invasive plant removal), as long as these activities do not adversely affect the preserve. • The Preserve Manager will remove debris and trash within the preserve (see Section 4.1.1 ). 4.3 Fire Management Protecting human life and safety is the first priority of every fire management activity. This is the responsibility of the City of Carlsbad fire department. It is expected that the fire department will suppress 100% of all unplanned wildland fires, regardless of ignition source, to the smallest size possible, protecting preserved habitat and adjacent property. Wildland fire is a substantial threat to the preserve based on its large size and by the wildfire history on site. Therefore, there will be no brush control or fire/fuel management activity within the preserve. If a fire occurs within the open space preserve, either burning all or a portion of the site, the vegetation will be allowed to naturally regenerate. No fire management is anticipated for the preserve. Fire is a naturally occurring event that produces healthy vegetation. 4.3.1 Fire Management Goals Goal 1 a: Ensure habitat recovery after fire. Objective 1.1: Manage post-fire native vegetation communities by monitoring changes over time, per Section 4.1.1, and implementing appropriate strategies. Fire is a natural occurrence in the San Diego County back country. Many upland, as well as native wetland, species are adapted to survive and recover following a fire event. Should fire damage reduce the native cover and/or cause other damage to the site, an assessment will be made to determine the level of damage and an appropriate course of action as demonstrated in this PMP. Post-fire recovery will be different for each habitat type, degree of fire damage, etc. Therefore, the determination of recovery targets and/or remedial actions will be conducted in coordination with the City HMP Habitat Management Program DUDEK 19 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve ASMD 1.1.1 Post-Fire Monitoring and Management • Monitoring of the trajectory of recovery shall occur to determine if succession is proceeding in the predicted way. Protocol for post-fire monitoring is discussed in detail in in Section 4.1.1. • Using monitoring results, the Preserve Manager shall develop a rigorous non-native, invasive species removal program to prevent encroachment from non-native, invasive species into burn areas. • Using monitoring results, the Preserve Manager in consultation with the City shall determine the best approach for aided habitat regeneration, which may range from letting the site recover on its own with invasive plant species control, removing burned snags to reduce organic build up/future fuel loads, and/or replanting/seeding portions of the site. ASMD 1.1.2 Post-Fire Plant Establishment and Erosion Control • If replanting and seeding is determined to be the best method of reestablishment for the burned vegetation community, container stock shall be installed using industry standard techniques. • A hole two times the diameter of the rootball and the same depth as the rootball will be excavated to receive the container plants. Each hole will be filled with water and allowed to drain prior to plant installation and soil backfill. Each container plant rootball shall be scarified prior to installation. Planting soil backfill shall be amended native soil, as needed. Tree species from container plants shall be caged to protect them from herbivory. • Container stock will receive a 2-inch-thick layer of organic mulch after planting, 18 inches out from the base of each plant, to reduce weed growth and water evaporation. • If seed is needed as well as container stock, seed will be installed once the container stock have been planted and all weeds removed. Seed and the specified soil amendments and fertilizer may be applied by hand and raked in to the soil surface in areas where hydroseed equipment is unable to reach due to width, existing plant density or steepness restrictions. The reestablishment areas shall be hydroseeded with the appropriate seed mix, as determined by the Preserve Manager. • Where needed, appropriate erosion control BMPs measures, such as, but not limited to, jute matting, rice straw wattles, fiber rolls, gravel bags, and/or additional hydroseeding will be installed on the slopes and areas needing erosion control protection. Silt fencing shall also be placed at the bottom of slopes, and along the low points of the burn areas bordering native habitat to serve as erosion control protection. DUDEK 20 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve 4.4 Constraints Due to the potential for nesting habitat and potential presence of the federally listed threatened coastal California gnatcatcher, limitations to maintenance activities within the preserve may be necessary. Exotic/invasive plant species removal may need to be postponed, minimized or amended within the bird breeding season, typically February 15 through August 31 for most species, and January 1 through August 31 for raptors. 4.5 Potential Impacts Potential impacts from monitoring and management may occur if exotic/invasive plant species removal is conducted during the bird breeding season. The federally threatened/HMP-covered coastal California gnatcatcher was detected at the Veteran's Park preserve during a site visit in October 2017. Coastal sage scrub habitat on site is dominated by California sagebrush, a plant species preferred by the coastal California gnatcatcher for foraging and breeding. To avoid impacts to the coastal California gnatcatcher and any other breeding birds, exotic/invasive removal may need to be conducted by hand or outside of the breeding season if nests and/or California gnatcatcher are detected during biological surveys. No other impacts from monitoring and management activities are anticipated. 4.6 Preserve Management Task Summary Planned management actions at the preserve are summarized in Table 3. Table 3 Preserve Management Task Summary Task General biological assessments Site patrol and general management and monitoring Habitat monitoring, including fixed photos point Vegetation mapping/revisions, including quantitative cover assessments California gnatcatcher protocol survey Wildlife movement monitoring and management Exotic/invasive species control Trash removal, fence and sign repair Post-fire monitoring/management, DUDEK Timing Monthly Monthly Annually Once at beginning of long-term, and every 5 years.

Preserve areas are subject to a variety of changing conditions including natural variability in species populations and habitat community structure, alteration of the biotic and abiotic conditions as a result of global climate change, legal changes such as new listings or de- listings of resident species, and social issues such as increasing pressures from recreational use. The-City of Carlsbad expects that management and monitoring will occur through an adaptive approach. Information gained through monitoring will influence the City's management decisions regarding the next steps in the adaptive process. This approach acknowledges the lack of complete understanding of a system while at the same time recognizing the need to begin management activities. Adaptive management is a mechanism to learn more about the system since controlled experiments may not be a biologically or economically reasonable option before management action is necessary. Targeted measurement of key environmental and biological variables before and after the management action can provide insight into the effects of actions at a particular site. These actions can then be adapted to optimize the achievement of management goals. The trigger for a change in the management approach occurs when results have not achieved the desired goal within a specified time frame. The assumptions underlying management goals must be stated explicitly and considered as hypotheses to be tested through monitoring programs that are, in effect, management experiments. The City will continue to use explicit models for experiments, observational studies, and adaptive management to implement management actions and test a priori assumptions. An adaptive management strategy will be used to learn and to evolve the management/monitoring program by evaluating the effects of management actions and using th.is information to re-evaluate goals, objectives, and priorities according to Section 4.3.8 ofthe City of Carlsbad Preserves 2017- 2021 Preserve Management Plan (CNLM and Tierra Data 2016), as summarized below: • Analysis and interpretation of the information gathered from the site will be viewed in context with results from other preserve areas as appropriate. • The management plan will be updated every five years in order to re-evaluate goals, objectives and ASMDs. • Only qualified staff will be selected to implement preserve management. Qualifications include a strong biology/ecology background, the ability to review the scientific literature DUDEK 23 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve and conduct scientifically rigorous field studies, and skills to coordinate with the research community for management support. • Sound record keeping will provide the support for any changes that occur and will document when conditions continue to be stable. This PMP provides the biological monitoring methods and schedule that provides input into the adaptive management approach. Adaptive management measures shall be limited to funds available as detailed in the Property Analysis Record (PAR). DUDEK 24 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve 6 ADMINISTRATION AND REPORTING 6.1 Annual Reports, Work Plans, and PMP Annual reports detailing all management activities and an annual financial summary are required under the HMP. Preserve Management entities are required to report annually to the City of Carlsbad, which in turn, summarizes management activities and prepares an annual report to the wildlife agencies. This commitment achieves the conservation goals of the Carlsbad HMP and the MHCP through complying with reporting requirements, report updating, and regular and effective communication and coordination. The schedule and process for meetings and reporting are detailed: I. Compliance monitoring. Is the PMP being implemented according the conditions, policies, and guidelines established therein? 2. Effectiveness monitoring. Is the management of the preserve conserving the species and habitats as expected? a. Submit an Annual Work Plan and Annual Report each year. A draft Annual Work Plan is due October 15 and a draft Annual Report is due November 15 to the Preserve Steward, City, and Wildlife Agencies for review and comment, and the final Work Plan and Annual Report is due by December 15. The Annual Report will summarize the activities accomplished during the year and any management and monitoring recommendations. The Annual Work Plan will outline the planned monitoring and management actions for the year and include a prioritization of specific management needs and ASMDs to be implemented in the adaptive management context (see the OSMP [2016] for required content and format). The annual update will be reviewed by the Wildlife Agencies and Preserve Steward, and be available for public review and comment. b. Attend monthly meetings with City staff to summarize work activities, discuss issues and determine management solutions. c. Attend the Quarterly Carlsbad Preserve Managers meeting to facilitate coordination among preserve areas/managers, to share ideas, address common problems, identify funding/grant opportunities, etc. Attendance is required of Preserve Managers and the Preserve Steward. Invited attendees include the City, Coastal Commission, Wildlife Agencies, and public (key City and Wildlife Agency staff may be required for certain issues). d. Maintain frequent communication between Preserve Steward and Preserve Managers ( ongoing as needed) by phone, e-mail, or in the field. Report emergency/critical issues to the City, Wildlife Agencies and/or Coastal Commission as needed (Preserve Manager and/or Steward to report depending on severity of issue). DUDEK 25 8058 June 2018 Preserve Management Plan for the Veteran's Park Preserve 6.1.1 Data Management: All incidental observations of sensitive species will be documented with a handheld GPS and input into GIS. Data for focused plant and wildlife surveys, vegetation mapping and invasive species mapping will also be collected and added to the GIS data layer. All GIS data will be submitted to the City as GIS shapefiles, which will be formatted in coordination with the City and include appropriate metadata. 6.1.2 Communication and Coordination: The Preserve Manager will be responsible for coordinating with the City HMP Administrator, adjacent land managers, adjacent residents, adjacent HOA board members, HMP program, and regional management and monitoring entities such as SDMMP as necessary. 6.1.3 Budget and Endowment Management: Lennar Homes will be responsible for all funding requirements for this PMP. This would include establishing a non-wasting endowment to fund the PMP based on the Property Analysis Record (PAR) approved by the City and Wildlife Agencies (Appendix A). The non-wasting endowment will be held by the San Diego Foundation. Long-term management tasks involve activities associated with the management and maintenance of the preserve in perpetuity as funding permits and include habitat monitoring/mapping, exotic species control, species surveys, general management, and public outreach as described in this PMP. The PAR includes contingency funds to address unforeseen events.
