Cal-Adapt midcentury 2040–2059 average projections for four hazards are reported below for your project location. These are under Representation Concentration Pathway (RCP) 8.5 which assumes GHG emissions will continue to rise strongly through 2050 and then plateau around 2100.
Climate Hazard Result for Project Location Unit
Temperature and Extreme Heat 32.1 annual days of extreme heat Extreme Precipitation 1.25 annual days with precipitation above 20 mm Sea Level Rise — meters of inundation depth
Wildfire 0.00 annual hectares burned
Temperature and Extreme Heat data are for grid cell in which your project are located. The projection is based on the 98th historical percentile of daily maximum/minimum temperatures from observed historical data (32 climate model ensemble from Cal-Adapt, 2040–2059 average under RCP 8.5). Each grid cell is 6 kilometers (km) by 6 km, or 3.7 miles (mi) by 3.7 mi.
Extreme Precipitation data are for the grid cell in which your project are located. The threshold of 20 mm is equivalent to about ¾ an inch of rain, which would be light to moderate rainfall if received over a full day or heavy rain if received over a period of 2 to 4 hours. Each grid cell is 6 kilometers (km) by 6 km, or 3.7 miles (mi) by 3.7 mi.
Sea Level Rise data are for the grid cell in which your project are located. The projections are from Radke et al. (2017), as reported in Cal-Adapt (Radke et al., 2017, CEC-500-2017-008), and consider inundation location and depth for the San Francisco Bay, the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta and California coast resulting different increments of sea level rise coupled with extreme storm events. Users may select from four scenarios to view the range in potential inundation depth for the grid cell. The four scenarios are: No rise, 0.5 meter, 1.0 meter, 1.41 meters Wildfire data are for the grid cell in which your project are located. The projections are from UC Davis, as reported in Cal-Adapt (2040–2059 average under RCP 8.5), and consider historical data of climate, vegetation, population density, and large (> 400 ha) fire history. Users may select from four model simulations to view the range in potential wildfire probabilities for the grid cell. The four simulations make different assumptions about expected rainfall and temperature are: Warmer/drier (HadGEM2-ES), Cooler/wetter (CNRM-CM5), Average conditions (CanESM2), Range of different rainfall and temperature possibilities (MIROC5). Each grid cell is 6 kilometers (km) by 6 km, or 3.7 miles (mi) by 3.7 mi.

6. Climate Risk Detailed Report
6.1. Climate Risk Summary
Cal-Adapt midcentury 2040–2059 average projections for four hazards are reported below for your project location. These are under Representation Concentration Pathway (RCP) 8.5 which assumes GHG emissions will continue to rise strongly through 2050 and then plateau around 2100.
Climate Hazard Result for Project Location Unit
Temperature and Extreme Heat 31.1 annual days of extreme heat Extreme Precipitation 1.40 annual days with precipitation above 20 mm Sea Level Rise — meters of inundation depth
Wildfire 0.00 annual hectares burned
Temperature and Extreme Heat data are for grid cell in which your project are located. The projection is based on the 98th historical percentile of daily maximum/minimum temperatures from observed historical data (32 climate model ensemble from Cal-Adapt, 2040–2059 average under RCP 8.5). Each grid cell is 6 kilometers (km) by 6 km, or 3.7 miles (mi) by 3.7 mi.
Extreme Precipitation data are for the grid cell in which your project are located. The threshold of 20 mm is equivalent to about ¾ an inch of rain, which would be light to moderate rainfall if received over a full day or heavy rain if received over a period of 2 to 4 hours. Each grid cell is 6 kilometers (km) by 6 km, or 3.7 miles (mi) by 3.7 mi.
Sea Level Rise data are for the grid cell in which your project are located. The projections are from Radke et al. (2017), as reported in Cal-Adapt (Radke et al., 2017, CEC-500-2017-008), and consider inundation location and depth for the San Francisco Bay, the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta and California coast resulting different increments of sea level rise coupled with extreme storm events. Users may select from four scenarios to view the range in potential inundation depth for the grid cell. The four scenarios are: No rise, 0.5 meter, 1.0 meter, 1.41 meters Wildfire data are for the grid cell in which your project are located. The projections are from UC Davis, as reported in Cal-Adapt (2040–2059 average under RCP 8.5), and consider historical data of climate, vegetation, population density, and large (> 400 ha) fire history. Users may select from four model simulations to view the range in potential wildfire probabilities for the grid cell. The four simulations make different assumptions about expected rainfall and temperature are: Warmer/drier (HadGEM2-ES), Cooler/wetter (CNRM-CM5), Average conditions (CanESM2), Range of different rainfall and temperature possibilities (MIROC5). Each grid cell is 6 kilometers (km) by 6 km, or 3.7 miles (mi) by 3.7 mi.

Executive Summary
The City of Clovis (City) retained Rincon Consultants Inc. (Rincon) to conduct a cultural resources study in support of the preparation of an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the City of Clovis Infill Rezone Program Project (project) in the City of Clovis, Fresno County, California. This study has been conducted in conformance with California Government Code Section 65759 to evaluate an increased capacity for affordable housing dwelling units in Clovis.
This study documents the methods and results of a cultural resources records search of the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS), a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search, and background research for each rezone site to analyze constraints for potential future development.
The field survey and background research identified two previously evaluated built environment resources: Helm Colonial Ditch (P-10-005511/CA-FRE-3344H) and Jefferson Canal (P-10-006140/CAFRE-3615H). Both have been evaluated and determined ineligible for listing in the NRHP and CRHR, and therefore, are not historical resources as defined by CEQA Section 15064.5(a). Research also identified 11 rezone sites that include built environment resources that have not been previously evaluated for NRHP or CRHR eligibility. Although the project includes rezoning and amending the land use designations, and there are no specific development associated with the project, implementation of the project would guide future development. Potential future development facilitated by the project may include site preparation, demolition, and construction activities and could have the potential to result in the physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of potential historical resources. Historic-aged buildings, as well as parcels with buildings that may become age-eligible with the passage of time, may require further evaluation to determine if they are historical resources pursuant to CEQA and may be affected by a future project. Therefore, there is potential to impact historical resources.
This study did not identify any previously recorded archaeological resources in any of the proposed rezone sites. However, only one rezone site (157) has been previously surveyed, which took place in 2002. In addition, seven rezone sites are considered to have moderate to high potential for subsurface archaeological deposits. The absence of previously recorded prehistoric or historicperiod archaeological resources within the immediate vicinity of the remaining rezone sites, along with the existing level of disturbance, suggests there is a low potential for encountering intact subsurface archaeological deposits. However, as these sites have not been previously studied, lack of evidence and sensitivity does not preclude the existence of archaeological resources within these rezone sites. Therefore, future development of any rezone site would have the potential to directly or indirectly impact subsurface archaeological resources through ground disturbing activities associated with construction. Rincon presents recommended mitigation measures for updated archaeological resources study and unanticipated archaeological resources to reduce impacts to less than significant levels.

Clovis Infill Rezone Program Environmental Assessment Project 2 1 Introduction
The City of Clovis (City) retained Rincon Consultants Inc. (Rincon) to conduct a cultural resources study in support of the preparation of an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the City of Clovis Infill Rezone Program Project (project) in the City of Clovis, Fresno County, California. This technical report documents the methods and results a cultural resources records search, archival and background research, and a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search. This study has been conducted in conformance with California Government Code Section 65759 to evaluate an increased capacity for affordable housing dwelling units in Clovis.
Project Site and Description
The project site includes 20 individual properties totaling 54 acres within the city of Clovis, Fresno County, California (Figure 1). The 20 rezoning sites are dispersed throughout the City and are largely vacant or are underutilized with low density residential development. Detailed information for each individual property, including Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN), Quadrangle, Township, Range, and Section is included in Table 1.
The City is initiating the project as part of the City of Clovis v. Martinez Settlement Agreement and General Release (Settlement Agreement), effective February 20, 2024. The project consists of the rezoning of the 20 individual properties (Figure 2) and amending the land use designations of those properties. In order to ensure adequate sites to meet the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) goals for lower income households, the rezoning of the 20 infill properties (rezoning sites) is necessary to provide sufficient housing development at locations that are adequate for accommodating lower income households. Amendments are to be made to the Land Use Element Map of the City of Clovis General Plan (2014) and revisions to the Zoning Map in the Title 9 Development Code of the Clovis Municipal Code. The process is separate from the 6th Cycle Housing Element Rezone Program.

2 Regulatory Setting
This project is being conducted by the City to implement any programs necessary for statutory compliance with the settlement agreement, and as such, is exempt from CEQA, as set forth in Government Code section 65759 and CEQA Guidelines section 15282(s). This section presents a discussion of state laws, ordinances, regulations, and standards governing cultural resources for informational purposes only.
Government Code Section 65759
Section 65759 of the California Government Code states that CEQA does not apply to any action necessary to bring its general plan or relevant mandatory elements into compliance with any court order or judgement. However, the local agency shall prepare an initial study to determine the environmental effects of the proposed action necessary to comply with the court order. If as a result of the initial study, the local agency determines that the action may have a significant effect on the environment, the local agency shall prepare, within the time limitations specified in Section 65754, an environmental assessment, the content of which substantially conforms to the required content for a draft environmental impact report set forth in Article 9 (commencing with Section 15140) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations.
California Environmental Quality Act
California Public Resources Code (PRC) Section 21084.1 requires lead agencies to determine if a project could have a significant impact on historical or unique archaeological resources. As defined in PRC Section 21084.1, a historical resource is a resource listed in, or determined eligible for listing in, the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), a resource included in a local register of historical resources or identified in a historical resources survey pursuant to PRC Section 5024.1(g), or any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record, or manuscript that a lead agency determines to be historically significant. PRC Section 21084.1 also states resources meeting the above criteria are presumed to be historically or cultural significant unless the preponderance of evidence demonstrates otherwise. Resources listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) are automatically listed in the CRHR, as are California Historical Landmarks 770 and above; both are therefore historical resources under CEQA. Historical resources may include eligible built environment resources and archaeological resources of the precontact or historic periods.
CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(c) provides further guidance on the consideration of archaeological resources. If an archaeological resource does not qualify as a historical resource, it may meet the definition of a “unique archaeological resource” as identified in PRC Section 21083.2.
PRC Section 21083.2(g) defines a unique archaeological resource as an artifact, object, or site about which it can be clearly demonstrated that, without merely adding to the current body of knowledge, there is a high probability that it meets any of the following criteria: 1) it contains information needed to answer important scientific research questions and that there is a demonstrable public interest in that information, 2) has a special and particular quality such as being the oldest of its type or the best available example of its type, or 3) is directly associated with a scientifically recognized important prehistoric or historic event or person.
City of Clovis
Clovis Infill Rezone Program Environmental Assessment Project 24 If an archaeological resource does not qualify as a historical or unique archaeological resource, the impacts of a project on those resources will be less than significant and need not be considered further (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5[c][4]). CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 also provides guidance for addressing the potential presence of human remains, including those discovered during the implementation of a project.
According to CEQA, an impact that results in a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource is considered a significant impact on the environment. A substantial adverse change could result from physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of the resource or its immediate surroundings such that the significance of the historical resource would be materially impaired (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5 [b][1]). Material impairment is defined as demolition or alteration in an adverse manner [of] those characteristics of a historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its inclusion in, or eligibility for inclusion in, the CRHR or a local register (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5[b][2][A]).
If it can be demonstrated that a project will cause damage to a unique archaeological resource, the lead agency may require reasonable efforts be made to permit any or all of these resources to be preserved in place or left in an undisturbed state. To the extent that resources cannot be left undisturbed, mitigation measures are required (PRC Section 21083.2[a][b]).
The requirements for mitigation measures under CEQA are outlined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.4(a)(1). In addition to being fully enforceable, mitigation measures must be completed within a defined time period and be roughly proportional to the impacts of the project. Generally, a project which is found to comply with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring, and Reconstructing Historic Buildings (the Standards) is considered to be mitigated below a level of significance (CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.4 [b][1]). For historical resources of an archaeological nature, lead agencies should also seek to avoid damaging effects where feasible. Preservation in place is the preferred manner to mitigate impacts to archaeological sites; however, data recovery through excavation may be the only option in certain instances (CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.4[b][3]).
California Register of Historical Resources
The CRHR was established in 1992 and codified by PRC Sections 5024.1 and Title 14 Section 4852.
The CRHR is an authoritative listing and guide to be used by state and local agencies, private groups, and citizens in identifying the existing historical resources of the state and to indicate which resources deserve to be protected, to the extent prudent and feasible, from substantial adverse change (Public Resources Code, 5024.1(a)). The criteria for eligibility for the CRHR are consistent with the NRHP criteria but have been modified for state use in order to include a range of historical resources that better reflect the history of California (Public Resources Code, 5024.1(b)). Unlike the NRHP however, the CRHR does not have a defined age threshold for eligibility; rather, a resource may be eligible for the CRHR if it can be demonstrated sufficient time has passed to understand its historical or architectural significance (California Office of Historic Preservation 2011). Furthermore, resources may still be eligible for listing in the CRHR even if they do not retain sufficient integrity for NRHP eligibility (California Office of Historic Preservation 2011). Generally, the California Office of Historic Preservation recommends resources over 45 years of age be recorded and evaluated for historical resources eligibility (California Office of Historic Preservation 1995:2).

A property is eligible for listing in the CRHR if it meets one of more of the following criteria:
Criterion 1: Is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of California’s history and cultural heritage
Criterion 2: Is associated with the lives of persons important to our past Criterion 3: Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represents the work of an important creative individual, or possesses high artistic values
Criterion 4: Has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history California Senate Bill 18 of 2004
California Government Code Section 65352.3 (adopted pursuant to the requirements of Senate Bill [SB] 18) requires local governments to contact, refer plans to, and consult with tribal organizations prior to making a decision to adopt or amend a general or specific plan. The tribal organizations eligible to consult have traditional lands in a local government’s jurisdiction, and are identified, upon request, by the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC). As noted in the California Office of Planning and Research’s Tribal Consultation Guidelines (2005); “The intent of SB 18 is to provide California Native American tribes an opportunity to participate in local land use decisions at an early planning stage, for the purpose of protecting, or mitigating impacts to, cultural places.” SB 18 refers to PRC Section 5097.9 and 5097.995 to define cultural places as:
A Native American sanctified cemetery, place of worship, religious or ceremonial site, or sacred shrine (PRC Section 5097.9)
A Native American historic, cultural, or sacred site, that is listed or may be eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources pursuant to Section 5024.1, including any historic or prehistoric ruins, any burial ground, any archaeological or historic site (PRC Section 5097.995).
California Health and Safety Code
Section 7050.5 of the California Health and Safety Code states that in the event of discovery or recognition of any human remains in any location other than a dedicated cemetery, there shall be no further excavation or disturbance of the site or any nearby area reasonably suspected to overlie adjacent remains until the coroner of the county in which the remains are discovered has determined if the remains are subject to the Coroner’s authority. If the human remains are of Native American origin, the coroner must notify the NAHC within 24 hours of this identification.
California Public Resources Code §5097.98
Section 5097.98 of the California Public Resources Code states that the NAHC, upon notification of the discovery of Native American human remains pursuant to Health and Safety Code §7050.5, shall immediately notify those persons (i.e., the Most Likely Descendant [MLD]) that it believes to be descended from the deceased. With permission of the landowner or a designated representative, the MLD may inspect the remains and any associated cultural materials and make recommendations for treatment or disposition of the remains and associated grave goods. The MLD shall provide recommendations or preferences for treatment of the remains and associated cultural materials within 48 hours of being granted access to the site.

Clovis Infill Rezone Program Environmental Assessment Project 26 3 Natural and Cultural Setting
This section provides background information pertaining to the natural and cultural context of the project site. It places the project site within the broader natural environment which has sustained populations throughout history. This section also provides an overview of regional indigenous history, local ethnography, and post-contact history. This background information describes the distribution and type of cultural resources documented within the vicinity of the project site to inform the cultural resources sensitivity assessment.
Natural Setting
The project site lies in the San Joaquin Valley with elevation ranging between 105 and 125 meters (344 to 410 feet) above mean sea level. None of the surrounding area retains its natural setting, with the various rezoning sites located in residential and commercial areas characterized by a mix of single-family homes, apartment complexes, and industrial buildings. The city of Clovis is situated between Dry Creek to the north, which runs roughly northeast to southwest, and Dog Creek to the east, which runs roughly north-south. Vegetation within the vicinity of the site consists of ornamental trees, including low ground cover and succulents, consistent with urban environmental settings and manicured landscapes.
Cultural Setting
Indigenous History
The Central Valley has been described as one of the largest intermontane basins extending 650 km from the Siskiyou to the Tehachapi mountains (Rosenthal et al. 2007). No single chronological framework covers the entirety of the Central Valley, but California prehistory is generally divided into three broad time periods: the Paleoindian Period (ca. 11,550 to 8,550 BCE), the Archaic Period (8,550 BCE to CE 1,100), and the Emergent Occupation (CE 1,000 to European Contact) (Fredrickson 1973, 1974), which has been updated and adjusted by Rosenthal et al. (2007) to further separate the Archaic Period into Lower (8,550 BCE to 5,550 BCE), Middle (5,550 BCE to 550 BCE), and Upper (550 BCE to CE 1,100). The prehistoric chronological sequence for the Central Valley presented below is based on Rosenthal et al. (2007) and Moratto (1984).
Paleoindian Period (11,550 to 8,550 BCE)
Little is currently known about the Paleoindian Period in the Central Valley. Geoarchaeological studies have demonstrated that erosion and deposition have buried or destroyed early archaeological deposits. Most claims of ancient human occupation have been dismissed by Moratto (1984) based on radiocarbon dating. This period is represented by isolated finds, and currently, the earliest accepted date of human occupation in the Central Valley ranges from 11,550 to 9,550 BCE and comes from fluted projectile points similar to Clovis points found at sites near Tracy Lake and the Tulare Lake Basin. Along with fluted projectile points, concave base points have been discovered along the Tulare Lake shoreline which was occupied during the Late Pleistocene (Rosenthal et al. 2007).
Natural and Cultural Setting
0BCultural Resources Technical Report 27
Lower Archaic (8,550 to 5,550 BCE)
Climate change at the end of the Pleistocene caused significant periods of alluvial deposition beginning around 9,050 BCE. These new alluvial deposits created a clear stratigraphic boundary between the Late Pleistocene and Holocene sediments. The Lower Archaic, like the Paleoindian Period, is represented only by limited isolated finds. Only one Lower Archaic site (KER-116) has been identified in the Central Valley proper and few in the foothills surrounding the valley (Rosenthal et al. 2007).
The relationship between foothill and valley floor adaptations is largely unknown during the Lower Archaic; however, it is suggested that the foothill sites may have been seasonally used during this time. More distinct adaptations are apparent in the Middle Archaic, and it is possible that these divergent traditions first emerged in the Lower Archaic (Rosenthal et al. 2007).
Middle Archaic (5,550 to 550 BCE)
The Middle Archaic began with substantial climate change to much warmer, drier conditions. Tulare Lake shrank and eventually disappeared. With this came new wetlands that created new habitats, and rising sea levels led to the creation of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, creating new deposits.
Fans and floodplains stabilized after an initial period of deposition in 5,550 BCE. Archaeological deposits dating to the Middle Archaic are rare in the Central Valley proper due to these geomorphic changes. The Middle Archaic record has revealed a pattern of organized subsistence strategies and increased residential stability. The archetypal pattern of the Middle Archaic has been identified as the Windmiller Pattern. This pattern is represented by extended burials oriented to the west and a sophisticated material culture (Rosenthal et al. 2007).
During this time, the mortar and pestle become more widespread, suggesting a shift toward more intensive subsistence practices and a higher reliance on acorn. Fishing technologies, such as bone gorges, hooks, and spears, also appear during the Middle Archaic, suggesting a new focus on fishing, especially in the Marsh Creek area. Several other technologies become apparent during this time.
Baked-clay impressions of twined basketry, simple pottery, and other baked clay objects have been found at several sites. Personal adornment items also become more frequent. Exchange with outside groups is evidenced by the presence of obsidian, shell beads, and ornaments (Rosenthal et al. 2007, Moratto 1984, Burns et al. 2012). Trade also seemed to be focused on utilitarian items such as obsidian or finished obsidian tools from at least five separate sources (Moratto 1984).
Upper Archaic (550 BCE to CE 1,100)
The Upper Archaic began with the onset of the Late Holocene, marked by a cooler, wetter climate.
The environmental conditions of the Upper Archaic were characterized by the return of lakes that had disappeared during the Middle Archaic and a renewed fan and floodplain deposition. The Upper Archaic is better represented in the archaeological record than earlier periods. Cultural diversity was more pronounced and is marked by contrasting material cultures throughout the valley (Rosenthal et al. 2007).
During this period, numerous specialized technologies were developed such as bone tools, and implements, manufactured goods such as Olivella and Haliotis beads and ornaments, well-made ceremonial blades, and ground-stone plummets. People living in the San Joaquin Valley region traded with neighboring groups for obsidian (Rosenthal et al. 2007).
City of Clovis
Clovis Infill Rezone Program Environmental Assessment Project 28 Upper Archaic Period economies varied by region throughout the Central Valley. Economies were primarily focused on seasonal resources such as acorns, salmon, shellfish, rabbits, and deer (Rosenthal et al. 2007).
Emergent Occupation (CE 1000 to Historic)
The stable climatic conditions of the Upper Archaic continued into the Emergent Period. There has been sporadic research in the San Joaquin Valley on this time period, and thus only the Pacheco Complex on the western edge of the valley has been formally defined. After CE 1,000, many of the technologies witnessed during the Archaic disappeared to be replaced by cultural traditions witnessed at European contact. During the Emergent Period, the bow and arrow replaced the atlatl as the preferred hunting method sometime between CE 1,000 and 1,300 (Rosenthal et al. 2007).
Increased social complexity is evidenced by increased variation in burial types and offerings and larger residential communities. Grave offerings such as shell beads, ornaments, and ritually “killed” mortars and pestles are often found in burials. Pottery was frequently obtained through trade with groups living in the foothills to the east. The Panoche side-notched point became important in the western side of the San Joaquin Valley (Rosenthal et al. 2007). In addition to the side-notched point, the Panoche Complex featured large circular structures, flexed burials, marine shell beads, bone awls, milling stones, and mortars and pestles (Moratto 1984).
As with the Archaic Period, Emergent Period economies varied geographically, although throughout the Central Valley fishing and plant harvesting increased in importance. Most Emergent Period residential sites contain diverse assemblages of mammal and bird remains and large amounts of fish bone. After 1,000 years, the mortar and pestle become the dominant tool type and small seeds increase in archaeological deposits over time (Rosenthal et al. 2007).
Ethnographic Setting
The Project site is located in the traditional territory of the Penutian-speaking Yokuts, which includes San Joaquin Valley and surrounding foothills (Kroeber 1925, Wallace 1978). Three geographical divisions of the Yokuts are the Northern Valley, Southern Valley, and Foothill Yokuts.
The distinction between the three groups is primarily based on language dialect (Mithun 2001). The Project is located at the approximate boundary between the ethnographic territories of the Northern and Southern Valley Yokuts, though more likely located within the ethnographic territory of the Southern Valley Yokuts, who occupied the southern San Joaquin Valley south of the San Joaquin River, to the foot of the Tehachapi Mountains. More specifically, the vicinity of the Project site was likely within the territory of the Tachi (Wallace 1978).
The Yokuts established large permanent village settlements, or closely associated smaller settlements. Residential structures were most often of two types: single-family dwellings and larger communal residences that housed 10 families or more. Villages frequently included mat-covered granaries and a sweathouse (Mithun 2001, Sutton et al. 2016). The closest known village sites to the Project site were “Golon,” near the present-day community of Huron (approximately 16 miles south of the Project site); and “Udjiu”, in a location later known as Posa de Chine or Poso Chane (approximately 18 miles south of the Project site) (Wallace 1978). Most of the western San Joaquin Valley is regarded as too arid to have supported permanent village sites, though the area was likely used for hunting and utilized for travel (Gayton 1945). The western periphery of the San Joaquin Valley was spanned by a major Native American trail, known by the Spanish name El Camino Viejo (Hoover et al. 2002; Davis 1961). El Camino Viejo stretched from modern-day Los Angeles to

Alameda County, and Cantua Creek served as a campsite along the route (Hoover et al. 2002).
Prominent intersecting east-west trails were likely found along Panoche Creek (20 miles north of Project site) and Los Gatos Creek (16 miles south of Project site), connecting Yokuts communities to their western neighbors through the Coast Range (Heizer 1978; Arkush 1993). The Fresno Slough and other waterways also served as travel corridors by tule raft (Wallace 1978; Gayton 1945).
The basic economic unit among the Yokuts was the nuclear family. The nuclear family was linked to totemic lineages based on patrilineal descent. Totem symbols were passed from father to offspring.
Families that shared the same totem formed an exogamous lineage. Totems were associated with one of two moieties. This moiety division played a role during ceremonies and other social events.
Yokuts were split into self-governing local groups that included several villages. Each group had a chief who directed ceremonies, mediated disputes, handled punishment of those doing wrong, hosted visitors, and provided aid to the impoverished. In certain cases, settlements had two chiefs, one for each moiety. Other political positions included the chief’s messenger and the spokesman (Wallace 1978).
Shamans were an important part of Yokut village life. A Yokut Shaman gained power through a dream or vision. If, after this vision, the man accepted the role as shaman, he would pray, fast, and acquire talismans to aid him in his future work. Shamans had the ability to heal the sick and served a primary role in religious life (Wallace 1978).
Yokuts subsistence strategy was based on a mixed economy focused on fishing, collecting, and hunting small game. Fishermen employed tule rafts and caught fish with nets, spears, basket traps, and bow and arrow. They often gathered mussels and hunted turtles in lakes, rivers, and streams.
Wild seeds and roots contributed a large portion to the Yokuts diet. Tule roots were gathered, dried, and pounded into a flour that was prepared as a mush. Tule seeds and grass and flowering herb seeds were prepared in the same way. Leaves and stems of certain plants, such as clover and fiddleneck, were also collected. Acorns, a staple of most California Native Americans, were not readily available in the ethnographic territory of the Yokuts. Some Yokuts tribes traded for acorns with neighboring groups, such as the Salinan and Chumash to the west, the Foothill Yokuts to the east, and the Kawaiisu and Kitanemuk to the southeast (Kroeber 1925). Waterfowl was frequently hunted with snares, nets, and bow and arrow. Land mammals and birds contributed a smaller part of the Yokuts diet. Small game was occasionally taken in snares or traps or shot with bow and arrow (Wallace 1978, Sutton et al. 2016).
Yokuts technology depended primarily on tule. Stems of the plant served as the raw material for baskets, cradles, boats, housing, and many other items. Manos and metates were used to process food and animal hides (Barton et al. 2010, Sutton et al. 2016). Tools such as knives, projectile points, and scraping tools were made from imported lithic materials, because stone was not readily available in the Central Valley. Some tools, such as bead drills, could be made from obsidian obtained from some distance or obtained through trade (Sutton et al. 2016). Marine shells secured through trade with coastal groups were used as shell money and personal adornment items, such as Olivella beads (Sutton et al. 2016, Wallace 1978).
Post-Contact Setting
Post-contact history for the state of California is generally divided into three periods: the Spanish Period (1769 to 1822), Mexican Period (1822 to 1848), and American Period (1848 to present).
Although Spanish, Russian, and British explorers visited the area for brief periods between 1529 and 1769, the Spanish Period in California begins with the establishment in 1769 of a settlement at San
City of Clovis
Clovis Infill Rezone Program Environmental Assessment Project 30 Diego and the founding of Mission San Diego de Alcalá, the first of 21 missions constructed between 1769 and 1823. Independence from Spain in 1821 marks the beginning of the Mexican Period, and the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, ending the Mexican-American War, signals the beginning of the American Period when California became a territory of the United States.
Spanish Period (1769-1822)
Spanish explorers made sailing expeditions along the coast of California between the mid-1500s and mid-1700s. Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo in 1542 led the first European expedition to observe what was known by the Spanish as Alta (upper) California. For more than 200 years, Cabrillo and other Spanish, Portuguese, British, and Russian explorers sailed the Alta California coast and made limited inland expeditions, but they did not establish permanent settlements (Bean 1968; Rolle 2003). The Spanish crown laid claim to Alta California based on the surveys conducted by Cabríllo and Vizcaíno (Bancroft 1885).
By the eighteenth century, Spain developed a three-pronged approach to secure its hold on the territory and counter against other foreign explorers. The Spanish established military forts known as presidios, as well as missions and pueblos (towns) throughout Alta California. The 1769 overland expedition by Captain Gaspár de Portolá marks the beginning of California’s historic period, occurring just after the King of Spain installed the Franciscan Order to direct religious and colonization matters in assigned territories of the Americas. Portolá established the Presidio of San Diego as the first Spanish settlement in Alta California in 1769 (Hackel 1997).
Construction of missions and associated presidios was a major emphasis during the Spanish Period in California to integrate the Native American population into Christianity and communal enterprise.
Incentives were also provided to bring settlers to pueblos or towns; just three pueblos were established during the Spanish Period, only two of which were successful and remain as California cities: San José and Los Angeles (Gumprecht 1999).
Spain began making land grants in 1784, typically to retiring soldiers, although the grantees were only permitted to inhabit and work the land. The land titles technically remained property of the Spanish king (Livingston 1914).
Mexican Period (1822-1848)
Several factors kept growth within Alta California to a minimum, including the threat of foreign invasion, political dissatisfaction, and unrest among the indigenous population. After more than a decade of intermittent rebellion and warfare, New Spain won independence from Spain in 1821. In 1822, the Mexican legislative body in California ended isolationist policies designed to protect the Spanish monopoly on trade, and decreed California ports open to foreign merchants (Hackel 1997).
Extensive land grants were established in the interior during the Mexican Period, in part to increase the population inland from the more settled coastal areas where the Spanish had first concentrated their colonization efforts. The secularization of the missions following Mexico’s independence from Spain resulted in the subdivision of former mission lands and establishment of many additional ranchos. Commonly, former soldiers and well-connected Mexican families were the recipients of these land grants, which now included the title to the land (Hackel 1997).
During the supremacy of the ranchos (1834 to 1848), landowners largely focused on the cattle industry and devoted large tracts to grazing. Cattle hides became a primary Southern California export, providing a commodity to trade for goods from the east and other areas in the United States and Mexico. The number of nonnative inhabitants increased during this period because of the influx
Natural and Cultural Setting
0BCultural Resources Technical Report 31
of explorers, trappers, and ranchers associated with the land grants. The rising California population contributed to the introduction and rise of diseases foreign to the Native American population, who had no associated immunities (Chapman 1928).
American Period (1848- Present)
The United States went to war with Mexico in 1846. During the first year of the war, John C.
Fremont traveled from Monterey to Los Angeles with reinforcements for Commodore Stockton, and evaded Californian soldiers in Santa Barbara’s Gaviota Pass by taking the route over the San Marcos grade instead (Kyle 2002). The war ended in 1848 with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, ushering California into its American Period.
California officially became a state with the Compromise of 1850, which also designated Utah and New Mexico (with present-day Arizona) as United States territories (Waugh 2003). Horticulture and livestock, based primarily on cattle as the currency and staple of the rancho system, continued to dominate the California economy through 1850s. The discovery of gold in the northern part of the state led to the Gold Rush beginning in 1848, and with the influx of people seeking gold, cattle were still desired, mainly for their hides but also as a source of meat and other goods. During the 1850s cattle boom, rancho vaqueros drove large herds from Southern to Northern California to feed that region’s burgeoning mining and commercial boom.
A severe drought in the 1860s decimated cattle herds and drastically affected many rancheros’ source of income. In addition, property boundaries that were loosely established during the Mexican era led to disputes with new incoming settlers, problems with squatters, and lawsuits.
Rancheros often were encumbered by debt and the cost of legal fees to defend their property. As a result, much of the rancho lands were sold or otherwise acquired by Americans. Most of these ranchos were subdivided into agricultural parcels or towns (Dumke 1994).
Local History
Since the community’s founding in the final decade of the nineteenth century, life in Clovis has historically centered on the fertile farmlands that surround the city. The below history is excerpted from the Draft Program Environmental Impact Report for the City of Clovis General Plan and Development Code Update (Placeworks 2014).
Clovis was founded following the construction of a freight stop along the recently completed San Joaquin Valley Railroad in 1891. As the agricultural potential of Fresno County began to be realized in the late nineteenth century, a number of individuals rapidly developed the railway to transport the region’s grain, cattle, and timber longer distances. In close proximity to agriculture and the nearby Sierras, the new stop had an ideal location and was named after local farmer Clovis M. Cole, who sold a large portion of his wheat ranch in support of the railway.
Another contributor to the growth of Clovis was the Fresno Flume and Irrigation Company. The company constructed the Shaver Log Flume that started at the Shaver Dam and traveled 42 miles into the valley to the present-day intersection of Fifth Street and Clovis Avenue. Here, the company constructed a 40-acre mill and finishing plant, which served as an impetus for the further development of Clovis as workers arrived to work at the plant.
A number of businesses, churches, and schools soon developed in response to the increasing population and, by 1895, the community had its first post office. Italian immigrants brought grape production to Clovis with the first vineyards in the region. Clovis incorporated in 1912 and grew modestly into the 20th century, with its economy continuing to rely primarily on
City of Clovis
Clovis Infill Rezone Program Environmental Assessment Project 32 agriculture. An unprecedented demand for canned food occurred with the onset of World War I, stimulating the local economy and growth in the City. As evidence of the City’s changing status, Clovis High School was relocated to an ornate, Spanish-designed building in 1920.
Increased agricultural production required additional water, and the Central Valley Project (CVP) was undertaken in the early 1930s to provide irrigation and water management to the San Joaquin Valley. The CVP began as a New Deal project but was not completed until the early 1950s due to labor shortages caused by World War II. An original component of the CVP was the Friant-Kern Canal, which flows immediately northeast of Clovis. The City experienced a modest building boom in the years following World War II as a number of housing developments expanded away from the city center. Although residential growth has continued since that time, the City continues to maintain its small-town character.

California Historical Resources Information System Records Search
On April 21, 2025, Rincon received California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) records search results (Records Search File No. 25-160) from the South San Joaquin Valley Information Center (SSVIC) (Appendix A). The SSJVIC is the official state repository for cultural resources records and reports for the county in which the project falls. The purpose of the records search was to identify previously recorded cultural resources, as well as previously conducted cultural resources studies within the project site and a 0.5-mile radius surrounding it. Rincon also reviewed the NRHP, CRHR, California Historical Landmarks list, and the Built Environment Resources Directory (BERD). Additionally, Rincon reviewed the Archaeological Determination of Eligibility (ADOE) list.
Sacred Lands File Search
Rincon contacted the NAHC on April 9, 2025, to request a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search, as well as a contact list of Native Americans culturally affiliated with the project area (Appendix B). Rincon did not conduct any outreach to the Native American contacts in the area to request information on potential cultural resources in the project vicinity that may be impacted by project development.

Rezone Site 72 – 437 W. Nees Avenue
The CHRIS records search identified no previously conducted cultural resources studies within the rezone site. None of the rezone site has been previously surveyed. One resource was identified during the CHRIS records search within the rezone site, and is detailed below.
Helm Colonial Ditch (P-10-005511/CA-FRE-3344H)
Resource P-10-005511, the Helm Colonial Ditch, was first recorded in 2005 by Wendy M. Nettles of Applied EarthWorks, Inc., who recorded and evaluated the West Branch. The West Branch of the Helm Colonial Ditch runs north to south paralleling N. Peach Avenue through the eastern edge of Rezone Site 72. The South Branch, which does not overlap Rezone Site 72, was then recorded and evaluated in 2019 by Carlos van Onna of Applied EarthWorks, Inc. The resource is described as a historical canal that originates from the Enterprise Canal near the intersection of Shepherd and Sunnyside Avenues north of Clovis. From the Enterprise Canal, the ditch meanders in a southwesterly direction paralleling Dry Creek until it reached the intersection of Teague and Clovis Avenues, where it splits into the South and West Branches. From the split, the South Branch continues parallel to Dry Creek in a southwesterly direction to Nees Avenue. The ditch then parallels Nees Avenue underground, then turns south to parallel Minnewawa Avenue. At Alluvial Avenue, the ditch cuts through the southeast to Herndon Avenue, then turns south to parallel Peach Avenue.
Between Sierra and Bullard Avenues, the South Branch turns west and joins the Helm Canal. From the split, the West Branch continues west and then turns south at Peach Avenue. It continues along the western shoulder of Peach Avenue until it meets Herndon Avenue, where the ditch turns west,

paralleling Herndon Avenue to Maple Avenue. At Maple Avenue, the ditch turns south and joins the Helm Canal. Both branches are approximately 2 miles long.
Constructed sometime between 1911 and 1913, the Helm Colonial Ditch supplied irrigation water to, among other agricultural subdivisions, the Colonial Helm development. Both ditch and subdivision are named for William Helm—a prominent stockman, farmer, and financier in the early history of Fresno County. Major portions of this canal system have been piped underground over the past 40 years. Routine maintenance requires periodic cleanout of the open ditch, during which dredged soil is piled on each side of the ditch.
In 2019, Applied EarthWorks, Inc. evaluated the West Branch of the Helm Colonial Ditch and found it ineligible for the NRHP and CRHR. The State Historic Preservation Office concurred with this evaluation, and the resource record includes a status code 6Z: Found Ineligible for NRHP, CRHR, and local listing. Therefore, the West Branch of the Helm Colonial Ditch is not a historical resource as defined by CEQA Section 15064.5(a).

Jefferson Canal (P-10-006140/CA-FRE-3615H)
Resource P-10-006140, the Jefferson Canal, was first recorded in 2012 by Randy Baloian of Applied EarthWorks, Inc. The Jefferson Canal runs east to west through the central portion of Rezone Site 599.The resource is described as a historical canal that originates from the Enterprise Canal near the intersection of Barstow and Leonard Avenues. It flows in a southwesterly direction until it turns west between Shaw and Gettysburg Avenues. Once it reaches Sierra Vista Parkway, the Jefferson canal splits. One branch continues west until it reaches Clovis Avenue. The other branch runs north along Sierra Vista Parkway until it turns west along Shaw Avenue. It then turns north along Clovis Avenue then angles northwest near the intersection with Scott Avenue. The canal then turns west near the intersection of Beverly Drive and Minnewawa Avenue then continues in this direction for approximately 0.4 miles. At this point, it angles south and continues for approximately 0.2 miles until it ends east of a Walmart Supercenter located at 323 W. Shaw Avenue. The total length of the Jefferson Canal is approximately 5 miles.
The Jefferson Canal was built sometime between 1907 and 1909 with an approximate length of 2 miles. The canal was then extended in the early 1920s and sometime between 1947 and 1964. The canal was originally above ground, but development of Clovis lead to the canal being piped under the surface.
In 2012, Applied EarthWorks, Inc. evaluated the Jefferson Canal and found it ineligible for the NRHP and CRHR. The same year, the Jefferson Canal was listed in the BERD with a code 6Y: Determined ineligible for the NRHP by consensus. Therefore, the Jefferson Canal is not a historical resource as defined by CEQA Section 15064.5(a).

Aerial Imagery and Historical Topographic Maps Review
Rincon completed a review of historical topographic maps and aerial imagery to ascertain the development history of the project site. The development history of each Rezone Site is presented individually below.
Rezone Site 3 – 270 West Herndon Avenue
Historic topographic maps and aerial photographs of the property depict residential and agricultural uses from 1923 to circa 1980. Throughout this time buildings, structures and crops were added and removed. In circa 1980, the commercial building at 350 N. Villa Avenue was added to the site. The property has been used for residential and commercial purposes until the present. A cemetery has been located adjacent to the rezone site, east of N. Villa Avenue, since at least 1923.

The rezone site remains unchanged to the present (NETR Online 2025a, 2025b).
Geologic and Soils Map Review
Geologically, the rezone sites are generally underlain by Quaternary age alluvium, lake, playa, and terrace deposits (California Department of Conservation 2015; Matthews and Burnett 1965). The California Department of Conservation (2015) and Matthews and Burnett (1965) identified geologic sediments within the project site as map units “Q.” These sediments are typically comprised of marine and nonmarine (continental) sedimentary rocks that may or may be unconsolidated or semiconsolidated. Additionally, these sediments consist mostly of alluvium. Because of the episodic nature of alluvial sedimentation, the sudden burial of artifacts is possible, and alluvial soils have an increased likelihood of containing buried archaeological deposits (Waters 1992).

Numerous soil series have been documented within the various project sites (California Soil Resource Lab n.d.). Soil series which comprised 80 to 95 percent of the soils within these project sites include the Atwater, Delhi, Greenfield, Handford, Ramona, Rocklin, San Joaquin, and the Visalia Series (California Soil Resource Lab 1999a, 1999b, 2003a, 2003b, 2003c, 2019, 2023). These soil series are described in further detail below, with the exception of the Visalia Series, as there is no available data for this series in the California Soil Resource Lab Soil Data Explorer tool. Other soil series within the project sites that comprise 20 percent of the project sites include the Dello, Grangeville, Himar, Dinuba, Snelling, Alamo, Foster, Chino, Chualar, Whitney, and the Exeter Series; no additional details pertaining to these soils series are provided here.

A typical profile of this series features hard and friable brown to dark brown or reddish-brown loam from 0 to 16 inches; extremely hard and firm brown clay from 16 to 26 inches; brittle and light brown indurated duripan from 26 to 29 inches; and hard but brittle brown duripan from 29 to 60 inches below surface (California Soil Resource Lab 1999b). Buried A horizons are not identified in this series, according to the California Soil Resource Lab Soil Data Explorer tool.
Archaeological Sensitivity Summary
Geoarchaeological studies regarding pre-contact archaeological sites have established the following predictive variables: proximity to previously recorded archaeological sites, underlying geology, and proximity to freshwater sources (Meyer and Rosenthal 2007). Therefore, Rincon considered proximity to previously recorded archaeological sites, buildings, and structures identified during the records search to increase archaeological sensitivity. Additionally, previous disturbance from construction of extant buildings is considered to decrease archaeological sensitivity due to the destructive nature of related ground disturbing activities.
The archival research indicates the sediments mapped at surface within the rezone sites are generally conducive to the natural burial and preservation of archaeological resources given they were deposited during the Holocene, a period consistent with recorded human occupation of the region. The soils map indicates all rezone sites are mapped with soil profiles that lack buried A Horizon soil indicative of buried paleosurfaces. Only two rezone sites, 115 and 590, are in close proximity (i.e., within 500 feet) of a freshwater source, and one rezone site, 161, is in proximity to a previously recorded archaeological resource. These factors increase the sensitivity for subsurface archaeological resources in those three rezone sites. Finally, 11 of the rezone sites include previous construction, as evidenced by extant buildings and/or associated structures. However, of these, one (rezone site 3) includes a building from the historic-period constructed by 1923, which further increases the sensitivity for historic-period archaeological resources. In consideration of the factors above, a summary of archaeological sensitivity (low, medium, or high) in consideration of these factors is included in Table 4 below.

0BCultural Resources Technical Report 47
6 Conclusions
The constraints analysis included here is organized based on the cultural resources thresholds included in CEQA Guidelines Appendix G: Environmental Checklist Form:
a) Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource pursuant to § 15064.5?
b) Would the project cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to § 15064.5?
c) Would the project disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of dedicated cemeteries?
Threshold A broadly refers to historical resources. To more clearly differentiate between archaeological and built environment resources, we have chosen to limit analysis under Threshold A to built environment resources. Archaeological resources, including those that may be considered historical resources pursuant to Section 15064.5 and those that may be considered unique archaeological resources pursuant to Section 21083.2, are considered under Threshold B.
Historical Built Environment Resources
The field survey and background research identified two previously evaluated built environment resources: Helm Colonial Ditch (P-10-005511/CA-FRE-3344H) and Jefferson Canal (P-10-006140/CAFRE-3615H). Both have been evaluated and determined ineligible for listing in the NRHP and CRHR, and therefore, are not historical resources as defined by CEQA Section 15064.5(a). Research also identified 11 rezone sites that include built environment resources that have not been previously evaluated for NRHP or CRHR eligibility.
Although the project includes rezoning and amending the land use designations, and there are no specific development associated with the project, implementation of the project would guide future development. Potential future development facilitated by the project may include site preparation, demolition, and construction activities and could have the potential to result in the physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of potential historical resources.
Historic-aged buildings, as well as parcels with buildings that may become age-eligible with the passage of time, may require further evaluation to determine if they are historical resources pursuant to CEQA and may be affected by a future project. Therefore, there is potential to impact historical resources.
Recommended Mitigation Measures

If a project would to occur on a site containing a historical resource as identified during implementation of Mitigation Measure CUL-1a, impacts must be mitigated, to the extent feasible, to historical resources identified within a proposed development site. Application of mitigation shall be overseen by an architectural historian, historian, and/or historic architect meeting the PQS, unless unnecessary in the circumstances (e.g., avoidance).
Mitigation may include avoidance, or preservation, rehabilitation, restoration, or reconstruction of the resource consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatments of Historic Properties (Standards). In accordance with CEQA, a project that has been determined to conform with the Standards generally would not cause a significant adverse direct or indirect impact to historical resources (14 CCR Section 15126.4[b][1]). A report identifying and specifying the project description, treatment of character-defining features, and compliance with the Standards must be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to the issuance of permits.
If historical resources are identified and compliance with the Standards and/or avoidance is not possible, appropriate site-specific mitigation measures shall be established and undertaken as determined by a PQS historian, architectural historian, and/or historic architect and the City.
Mitigation measures may include, but are not limited to, Historic American Building Survey (HABS)-

Like report, interpretive signage, and relocation. The mitigation shall be completed and submitted to the City prior to issuance of permits for demolition or alteration of the historical resource.
Significance After Mitigation
Implementation of Mitigation Measures CUL-1a and CUL-1b would reduce impacts to historical resources to the extent feasible by identifying and evaluating significant historical resources and managing avoidance, or preservation, rehabilitation, restoration, or reconstruction in compliance with the Standards as applicable. Nonetheless, even with implementation of Mitigation Measures CUL-1a and CUL-1b, eligible historical resources could still be materially impaired by future development that would be carried out under the proposed project. It is possible that a future project could result in the demolition or substantial alteration of a historical resource. Therefore, even with mitigation impacts may not be reduced to a less than significant level, and the impact would remain significant and unavoidable.
Historical and Unique Archaeological Resources
This study did not identify any previously recorded archaeological resources in any of the proposed rezone sites. However, only one rezone site (157) has been previously surveyed, which took place in 2002. In addition, seven rezone sites are considered to have moderate to high potential for subsurface archaeological deposits. The absence of previously recorded prehistoric or historicperiod archaeological resources within the immediate vicinity of the remaining rezone sites, along with the existing level of disturbance, suggests there is a low potential for encountering intact subsurface archaeological deposits. However, as these sites have not been previously studied, lack of evidence and sensitivity does not preclude the existence of archaeological resources within these rezone sites. Therefore, future development of any rezone site would have the potential to directly or indirectly impact subsurface archaeological resources through ground disturbing activities associated with construction. The following recommended mitigation measures are for archaeological resources studies and unanticipated archaeological resources. With adherence to these measures, Rincon recommends a finding of less-than-significant impact with mitigation for archaeological resources under CEQA.
Recommended Mitigation Measures
CUL-2a Archaeological Resource Study
For future projects involving ground disturbance on the Infill Rezone Program sites listed in Table 7 below the project applicant(s) shall prepare a Phase I archaeological resources assessment under the supervision of an archaeologist meeting the PQS in archaeology (National Park Service 1983).
Assessments must include a California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) records search at the South San Joaquin Valley Information Center, Sacred Lands File search maintained by the Native American Heritage Commission, and intensive-level pedestrian survey, and archaeological sensitivity analysis. The assessment must be completed prior to project approval.
If the Phase I archaeological resources assessment identifies resources that may be affected by the project, an extended Phase I testing program, Phase II testing and evaluation, and/or archaeological monitoring may be required, as determined by the qualified archaeologist. If resources are determined significant or unique, avoidance or preservation-in-place may reduce impacts to a less than significant level. If avoidance is not possible, appropriate site-specific mitigation measures shall

Clovis Infill Rezone Program Environmental Assessment Project 50 be identified. These measures may include, but would not be limited to, a Phase III data recovery program and curations, or other appropriate actions to be determined by a qualified archaeologist and City. The City will review and approve reports and ensure that mitigation measures are implemented as appropriate prior to or during construction.

CUL-2b Unanticipated Discovery of Archaeological Resources In the event that archaeological resources are unexpectedly encountered during ground-disturbing activities, work within 50 feet of the find shall halt and an archaeologist meeting the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualifications Standards for archaeology (National Park Service 1983) shall be contacted immediately to evaluate the resource. If the resource is determined by the qualified archaeologist to be prehistoric, then a Native American representative shall also be contacted to participate in the evaluation of the resource. If the qualified archaeologist and/or Native American representative determines it to be appropriate, archaeological testing for CRHR eligibility shall be completed. If the resource proves to be eligible for the CRHR and significant impacts to the resource cannot be avoided via project redesign, a qualified archaeologist shall prepare a data recovery plan tailored to the physical nature and characteristics of the resource, per the requirements of the California Code of Regulations (CCR) Guidelines Section 15126.4(b)(3)(C).
The data recovery plan shall identify data recovery excavation methods, measurable objectives, and data thresholds to reduce any significant impacts to cultural resources related to the resource.
Pursuant to the data recovery plan, the qualified archaeologist and Native American representative,
Conclusions

as appropriate, shall recover and document the scientifically consequential information that justifies the resource’s significance. The City shall review and approve the treatment plan and archaeological testing as appropriate, and the resulting documentation shall be submitted to the regional repository of the California Historical Resources Information System, per CCR Guidelines Section 15126.4(b)(3)(C).
Significance After Mitigation
Implementation of Mitigation Measures CUL-2a and CUL-2b would reduce impacts to archaeological resources to less than significant levels by ensuring the avoidance of archaeological resources to the extent feasible, or by identifying, evaluating, and conducting data recovery archaeological resources that may be impacted by future projects in a timely manner. With implementation of these measures, impacts to archaeological resources would be less than significant.
Human Remains
No human remains are known to be present within the project site. However, the discovery of human remains is a possibility during ground disturbing activities. If human remains are found, the State of California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 states that no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coroner has made a determination of origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. In the event of an unanticipated discovery of human remains, the County Coroner must be notified immediately. If the human remains are determined to be of Native American origin, the Coroner will notify the NAHC, which will determine and notify an MLD. The MLD has 48 hours from being granted site access to make recommendations for the disposition of the remains. If the MLD does not make recommendations within 48 hours, the landowner shall reinter the remains in an area of the property secure from subsequent disturbance.
Impacts would be less than significant without mitigation.

Re: Native American Consultation, Pursuant to Senate Bill 18, Government Code §65352.3 and §65352.4, 24-15842 Clovis Infill Rezone Program Environmental Assessment Project, Fresno County
To Whom It May Concern:
Attached is a consultation list of tribes with traditional lands or cultural places located within the boundaries of the above referenced counties.
Government Code §65352.3 and §65352.4 require local governments to consult with California Native American tribes identified by the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) for the purpose of avoiding, protecting, and/or mitigating impacts to cultural places when creating or amending General Plans, Specific Plans and Community Plans.
The law does not preclude initiating consultation with the tribes that are culturally and traditionally affiliated within your jurisdiction. The NAHC believes that this is the best practice to ensure that tribes are consulted commensurate with the intent of the law.
The NAHC also believes that agencies should also include with their notification letters, information regarding any cultural resources assessment that has been completed on the area of potential effect (APE), such as:
1. The results of any record search that may have been conducted at an Information Center of the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS), including, but not limited to:
• A listing of any and all known cultural resources that have already been recorded or are adjacent to the APE, such as known archaeological sites; • Copies of any and all cultural resource records and study reports that may have been provided by the Information Center as part of the records search response;
• Whether the records search indicates a low, moderate or high probability that unrecorded cultural resources are located in the APE; and • If a survey is recommended by the Information Center to determine whether previously unrecorded cultural resources are present.
2. The results of any archaeological inventory survey that was conducted, including:
• Any report that may contain site forms, site significance, and suggested mitigation measures.

4. Any ethnographic studies conducted for any area including all or part of the APE; and
5. Any geotechnical reports regarding all or part of the APE.
Lead agencies should be aware that records maintained by the NAHC and CHRIS are not exhaustive. A tribe may be the only source of information regarding the existence of a tribal cultural resource.
This information will aid tribes in determining whether to request formal consultation. In the event that they do, having the information beforehand will help to facilitate the consultation process.
If you receive notification of change of addresses and phone numbers from tribes, please notify the NAHC. With your assistance, we are able to assure that our consultation list remains current.

Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section One: Introduction 1-1
1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 PURPOSE AND NEED FOR THE WATER SUPPLY ASSESSMENT
California Water Code (CWC) §10912(a) requires preparation of a Water Supply Assessment (WSA) meeting the requirements of CWC §10910 et seq for projects within cities and counties that meet one of several water demand triggers, or the equivalent. These triggers include construction of 500 or more residential units, construction of a shopping center or business establishment having 500,000 square feet of floor space, construction of a commercial office building having more than 250,000 square feet, a proposed hotel or motel having more than 500 rooms, or another project having a water demand equivalent to or greater than the 500-unit development.
This WSA evaluates the adequacy of available water supplies for the proposed City of Clovis, Infill Rezone Program, located at various parcels throughout the City of Clovis, California. The Project would entail the rezoning on 54.32 acres across 20 parcels to create the capacity to provide approximately 1,303 affordable housing dwelling units, which is greater than the “500 residential units” trigger; therefore, a WSA is required.
The City of Clovis operates the water system to which the Project proposes to connect. This water system meets the standards for a “Public Water System” as set forth in CWC §10912(c); the City is therefore responsible for preparation of the required WSA in accordance with CWC §10910(b).
This WSA discusses the estimated water demands and water supply for the proposed Project. The Project is located in the City of Clovis (City) limits; the entire Project will be supplied water from the City.
1.2 RELIANCE ON A RELATED URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN
If the Project falls within the boundaries of a current Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) prepared by the water purveyor, CWC §10910(c)(1) requires that the WSA determine whether projected water demand associated with the Project is included as part of that duly adopted UWMP.
The 2020 Clovis UWMP covers the SOI for the City. This Project lies across 20 parcels within the City of Clovis (City) limits, within the City’s SOI (Provost & Pritchard Consulting Group, 2021). Thus, in accordance with the CWC, the preparers have relied on information from the UWMP wherever possible in preparing the various elements of this Assessment.
1.3 DOCUMENT ORGANIZATION
This WSA is organized as follows:
• Section 2 describes the Project and its location.
• Section 3 describes the Project’s potable and non-potable water demands in addition to those of other existing and planned uses, and variations from the numbers in the UWMP. • Section 4 provides an overview of the City’s primary water supplies. • Section 5 discusses the adequacy of water supplies during normal years. • Section 6 discusses the adequacy of water supplies during single-dry and multiple-dry years. • Section 7 discusses operational reliability on a daily basis. • Section 8 concludes whether supplies would be adequate during normal, dry-year, and multiple-dry years during a 20-year projection.
• Section 9 lists references cited in this WSA.

Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Two: Project Description 2-1
2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
2.1 PROJECT LOCATION AND SETTING
The City limits currently encompasses 25.9 square miles. The City’s Sphere of Influence (SOI) covers 34.9 square miles, while the City’s General Plan (GP) encompasses approximately 74.3 square miles. The City’s General Plan (Placeworks, 2014) identified three Urban Centers to focus growth, including Loma Vista, the Northwest area, and the Northeast area; this Project lies across 20 parcels, within the City of Clovis (City) limits. Figure 2-1 identifies the location(s) of the Project in relation to the surrounding Clovis/Fresno region.
The Project would entail a General Plan Amendment and rezoning on 54.32 acres across 20 parcels to create the capacity to provide approximately 1,303 affordable housing dwelling units. The Project is a proposed High Density Residential (HDR) development. The Project site includes 54 gross acres bounded by the City’s Sphere of Influence (SOI). The Project site encompasses 20 parcels, as listed in Table 2-1.
The Project area is currently designated in the City’s General Plan, as various types of Residential, General Commercial, Office, Mixed-Use Village, and Industrial land uses.

2.2 WATER SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION
The Project will receive water supply from the City’s water distribution system, which relies on both groundwater and surface water supplies. Built in 2004, the City’s Surface Water Treatment Plan (SWTP) has a current treatment capacity of 22.5 million gallons per day (MGD); expansion to 45 MGD is planned.
In addition to the supply from the SWTP, the City has more than 30 groundwater wells located throughout the City, with the nearest wells being approximately one and a half miles southeast of the Project. While the City’s system is divided into two pressure zones, there are interconnections between the two to balance supply and demands throughout the year in various water demand scenarios.
The Project area is within both the water system’s Pressure Zone 1 and Pressure Zone 2. Water will be delivered to the Project via the City’s existing and planned distribution system. Table 2-2 shows the sites in Pressure Zone 1, and Table 2-3 the sites in Pressure Zone 2. The water distribution system is shown in full in the Water Master Plan Update, Phase III (WMP) (Provost & Pritchard Consulting Group, 2018), and in

Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Three: Water Demands 3-1
3 WATER DEMANDS
This section summarizes projected water demands of the Project, assuming full buildout of the Project by 2030. Water demands associated with development of the Project area were included in the UWMP and were based on Land Use-based Water Demand Factors (WDFs) applied to land uses shown in the City’s adopted General Plan. Proposed Project water demands have been estimated based on the proposed land uses and the WDFs shown in the adopted WMP. This section compares water demand estimates developed as part of this study with the City’s earlier plans.
3.1 PROJECT DEMANDS
Based on the adopted WDFs stated in the WMP and the existing GP land use (shown in Figure 3-1) designations, the planned water demands, shown in acre-feet per year (AFY), for the Project area are shown in Table 3-1.

Totals: 54.32 259.31
While the proposed land use is residential, the intensity of the residential development is greater than the GP land uses; therefore, the proposed water demand estimates are greater than the planned estimates. The increase in total water demand for the Project area is 104.63 AFY. This increase is attributable to the proposed HDR designation having a higher WDF than that of the originally planned land use designations shown in Table 3-1. Despite the increase in demands for the Project area, the proposed increase amounts to 0.65% of the excess supply for year 2030 the City has in a normal year as shown in Table 7-2 of the 2020 UWMP1.
Project water demands were calculated in 5-year increments, as shown in Table 3-3, assuming 10 percent of the development by 2025 and the balance by 2035.
1 The excess supply in a normal year in 2030 is shown in the UWMP as 16,113 AFY; the total demand planned for the area is 154.68 AFY while the proposed demand is 259.31 AFY, yielding an increased demand of 104.63 AFY or 0.65% of the excess supply (104.63/16,113 = 0.65%).

Comparing the total proposed Project water demands in Table 3-2 with the total water demand area analyzed in the UWMP and shown in Table 3-4, the Project makes up a very small portion of the overall water anticipated to be delivered by the City to similar types of uses; however, it is worth noting the additional demands beyond the original planned land use (104.63 AFY) accounts for 3.9% of the MFR projected demands shown in the 2020 UWMP for year 2030.

Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Four: Overview of Water Supplies 4-1
4 OVERVIEW OF WATER SUPPLIES
CWC §10910(c)(2) allows reliance on the City’s UWMP to determine overall water supply reliability if the Project’s planned water demand was included in the UWMP. Although the proposed Project demand is more than what was included in the calculations for the UWMP, the Project area itself was included at the originally planned land use intensity.
§10910(d) requires that a WSA identify any existing water supply entitlements, water rights, or water service contracts relevant to the identified water supply for the proposed Project, including any such existing entitlements, rights, or contracts held by the public water system or city or county preparing the WSA. These descriptions appear in detail in Chapter 6 of the UWMP and are summarized below.
4.1 SURFACE WATER
The City’s surface water supply is provided through agreements with Fresno Irrigation District (FID), which allows the City to receive a share of FID’s Kings River and Friant Central Valley Project Class II (CVP) entitlements. Garfield Water District (GWD) and International Water District (IWD) are located within the City’s General Plan boundaries. As the districts’ service areas are urbanized over time, surface supplies available to the two districts will be added to the City’s surface water supply. As those supplies are added to the City’s water supply portfolio, they will be available throughout the City’s service area as part of the general water supply. Currently, all surface water available to the City comes from the FID contract. The boundaries of each of the districts are shown on Figure 4-1.
4.1.1 KINGS RIVER
FID obtains much of its surface water from the Kings River. FID is a member of the Kings River Water Association, which holds water rights licenses for all the Kings River and storage rights licenses on Kings River reservoirs. FID is entitled to water based upon a prorated monthly schedule determined by the natural flow of the Kings River as it would occur without reservoir storage above the historic Piedra gauging station. FID is entitled to water from the Kings River at all flows, but the percentage is higher at relatively low Kings River flows. If the snowmelt is slow, the District receives a greater entitlement. FID’s average gross annual entitlement is 452,541 AF. Within the last fifty years, the smallest entitlement received was 158,109 AF, which occurred in 2015.
The City’s allocation from the Kings River is proportional to the total acreage of the City's included area to the total FID area receiving water; the total amounts available to the City are discussed in greater detail in Section 6.1.
4.1.2 CENTRAL VALLEY PROJECT WATER ALLOCATION: FRIANT DIVISION The water obtained from the CVP comes from the diversion and storage of water from the San Joaquin River behind Friant Dam. The total available water on the San Joaquin River has been estimated at 2,200,000 acre-feet (AF). Of that, 800,000 AF have been designated as Class I supply (Bureau of Reclamation, 2005). Class I supply is considered to be dependable in most years with shortages only in very dry years. Class II water is in excess of Class I and is therefore much less dependable. FID has a contract with the United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) for 75,000 AF of Class II water from this source (Bureau of Reclamation, 2005). The agreement between the City and FID requires the District to make available to the City the proportional share of all surface water available to the District although it does not allow the City to directly receive FID’s CVP supplies. Therefore, FID is required to make a like
City of Clovis May 2025
Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Four: Overview of Water Supplies 4-2
amount of Kings River (or any other surface) water available to the City for its proportional share of Class II CVP supplies. FID’s Class II contract has received an average 13,577 AFY with the actual number ranging from zero to the full 75,000 AF depending upon the nature of each water year over that period. Table 4-1 lists the projected surface water volume through 2040.
4.1.3 GARFIELD WATER DISTRICT
GWD is located north of the City with a portion of the district in the City’s SOI. The GWD holds a Class 1 CVP contract for 3,500 AFY. With half of GWD within the City’s SOI, an estimated 1,750 AFY is expected to be added to the City’s supply upon development. As noted in the UWMP, the first portion of GWD supplies is not anticipated to be available to the City until 2025, with the total 1,750 AFY not accounted for in the supply totals until 2040.
4.1.4 INTERNATIONAL WATER DISTRICT
IWD is located east of the City’s SOI within the general plan’s boundary. The IWD holds a Class 1 CVP contract for 1,200 AFY. The City’s General Plan designates a portion of the District’s area as industrial and residential use. At build-out it is estimated that the entire 1,200 AFY supply will be added to the City’s supply. As noted in the UWMP, the first portion of GWD supplies is not anticipated to be available to the City until 2030, with the total 1,200 AFY not accounted for in the supply totals until 2040.
4.2 SUPPLY FROM STORAGE
Since 2004, the City has been storing water in the aquifer to create a stable source of supply over the years. The City has been working with FID to recharge surface water, using the City’s contracted shares of capacity in FID’s Waldron Banking Facility and Boswell Groundwater Banking Facility, to build up credit in those facilities which allow for annual water withdrawals, on an as-needed or as-requested basis. The surface water banked includes portions of FID’s Kings and CVP supplies and may in the future also include other surface water supplies that FID is able to secure on the spot market. Recharged water is purchased under separate agreements with FID and is not included in the surface water totals in the previous section, so this is truly a separate and additional water supply. This process is fully explained in the UWMP.
Two banking facilities, the Waldron Banking Facilities (Waldron) and Boswell Groundwater Banking Facility (Boswell), have been constructed in central Fresno County. The City entered into an agreement with the FID to participate in the financing of the construction of a dedicated water banking facility called the Waldron Banking Facilities. The City is entitled to receive up to ninety percent (9,000 AF) of the annual yield. The City and FID have entered into a similar agreement regarding the Boswell Groundwater Banking Facility whereby the City will have access up to 4,500 AFY of surface water. The recharged water will be “banked” for future recovery during dry periods or to accommodate planned growth.
The City has created a recharge plan accounting for historic variations in surface water supplies that will allow it to withdraw an annual 13,500 AF, the maximum withdrawal allowed under the City’s agreements with FID. This is considered a firm supply. The 13,500 AF maximum annual withdrawal is built into the water supply projections in the UWMP for each year over the planning horizon.
4.3 GROUNDWATER
The City is located within the Kings Groundwater sub-basin, a part of the Tulare Lake Hydrogeologic Basin as described in the Department of Water Resources Bulletin 118 (Department of Water Resources, 2003).
City of Clovis May 2025
Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Four: Overview of Water Supplies 4-3
The groundwater basin is in overdraft and has been for many years. However, it has not been adjudicated.
Chapter 6 of the UWMP discusses a sustainable groundwater yield for the service area and concludes the sustainable yield to be 9,400 AFY, as discussed in greater detail in the WMP. While the North Kings Groundwater Sustainability Plan (NKGSP) has been written and adopted, it does not yet include a firmer approximation of sustainable yield, although development of one is anticipated. The sustainable yield from the UWMP and WMP has been used for this assessment.

Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Four: Overview of Water Supplies 4-5
4.4 RECYCLED WATER
Most of the City’s wastewater flow is treated at the Regional Water Reclamation Facility (RWRF), located southwest of the City of Fresno on Jensen Avenue. In 2009, the City of Clovis completed a new Water Reclamation Facility (WRF). In 2020, the WRF produced approximately 2,496 AFY. Of that total, 28 percent was recycled for mostly landscape and agricultural irrigation, with the remainder being discharged to FID’s Fancher Creek for agricultural irrigation.
Ultimately the WRF will be expanded to be able to treat 8.4 MGD, or 9,400 AF per year, and will make a substantial contribution to the City’s overall water resources. According to the 2020 UWMP, recycled water is used for irrigation of public and private landscape within the service area. Areas receiving or planned to receive recycled water include the Freeway 168 corridor between Shepherd and Sierra Avenues, the existing Clovis Community Medical Center campus, and multiple City parks and landscape areas.
Landscape irrigation will continue to be the main use of recycled water in the future. All public landscape areas within three-quarters of a mile of the distribution system are considered potential recycled water use areas. Clovis Unified School District is evaluating the use of recycled water for its landscape areas.
Caltrans has expanded their use of recycled water along State Route 168 from Armstrong Avenue west to Sierra Avenue. Concurrent with the Project’s development, the City will expand its use of recycled water and broaden its range of beneficial uses to potentially include irrigating the public landscape space to be developed with the Project.
To affect that increase in use, the City now requires all new development of public landscape near recycled water transmission lines to use recycled water. Additional actions include extending the recycled water distribution system to discharge at groundwater recharge facilities and reducing the cost of recycled water. The UWMP indicates planned use of recycled water supply will be 9,400 AFY by 2040 (UWMP Table 6-13). With a planned2recycled water transmission main in Shepherd Avenue, it is possible this Project may use recycled water for landscape irrigation, but the City will make final determination of that at a later date.
4.5 EXCHANGES
Water exchanges, transfers, and water banking allow purveyors to manage demand and supply variability by ensuring water will be available for the near future. The majority of the City’s wastewater is treated at the RWRF. Under an agreement with FID, the City of Fresno receives 0.92 AF of Kings River surface water in exchange for each two AF of reclaimed water produced by the RWRF (46 percent exchange). Clovis is in discussions with the City of Fresno and FID on documenting its pro-rata share of RWRF effluent and the most efficient recover and beneficial use of that effluent. This will require a new effluent exchange agreement with FID, and potentially the City Fresno, to appropriately allocate Clovis’ pro-rata share of the treated water. This water is limited by agreement to being used for groundwater recharge activities.
4.6 WATER SUPPLY SUMMARY
The five sources discussed above make up the City’s water resources. These are tabulated overall for 2025 and for each subsequent 5-year period through 2040 in Table 4-1. 2 As noted in the City’s 2018 Recycled Water Master Plan
City of Clovis May 2025
Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Four: Overview of Water Supplies 4-6
The City’s overall water resources are projected to increase from 50,739 AF per year in 2025 to 74,650 AF per year in 2040. Nearly all this increase will come from increasing surface water resources from 18,039 AF per year in 2020 to 39,400 AF per year in 2040. The mix of water supplies the City plans to use to meet these demands is changing over time and, while the surface water supplies will be the primary source, a mixture of groundwater and supply from storage will be used to meet demands.

Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Five: Normal Year Water Operations 5-1
5 NORMAL YEAR WATER OPERATIONS
This section evaluates the ability of the City to meet the overall water demands during normal water years. A normal year is a year, or averaged range of years, that most closely represents the average water supply available to the City. In this case, the normal year reflects the overall water supply summary discussed in Section 4.
This Chapter relies on information taken from Sections 6 and 7 of the UWMP. Table 5-1 compares the City’s water demands and compares them with the normal year water supplies (see Table 4-1) for the 5- year increments the Project is anticipated to be constructed, and through 2040, as shown in the UWMP.
As shown, total supplies would exceed total demands. Adequate supplies are available to serve the City and its water customers in normal rainfall years such as those discussed in this section. The excess water supply is more than adequate to meet the estimated Project water demands.

Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Six: Single-Dry and Multiple-Dry Year Water Supplies 6-1
6 SINGLE-DRY AND MULTIPLE-DRY YEAR WATER SUPPLIES
This section evaluates the availability of City water supplies during single-dry and multiple-dry water years, based on Project buildout in 2030. Numerous factors will work to change the relative quantities of water the City receives from its several water sources. Since each of these has a different reliability in dry years, the overall water supply reliability will change over time. The following sections discuss how this will occur.
During a single-dry year, surface water allotments are anticipated to be reduced by as much as 66 percent for Kings River surface water supplies, and CVP Class II supplies are eliminated completely in dry years. In the future, as the City becomes more reliant on surface water supplies, the impact of surface water reductions in dry years will be more significant.
A multiple-dry year period represents the lowest average supply available to the Project for a consecutive five-year period. This analysis is referred to as a “multi-dry” condition in the UWMP. The WSA analysis is based on the five consecutive driest years of record for the Project’s surface water supplies, which were water years 2011/12 through 2015/16.
6.1 WATER YEAR EFFECTS ON WATER SOURCES
6.1.1 KINGS RIVER SURFACE WATER
Both the single-dry and multiple-dry analyses are most affected by the variations in Kings River entitlement in dry years. FID’s entitlement does not vary directly in proportion to overall annual runoff; rather it favors FID versus all the other Kings River diverters. When river flows are low due to slow runoff, low annual precipitation or both, FID’s proportional share of the daily river flow increases.
The effect of this is that FID’s entitlement, as a percentage of its average entitlement, is higher than the overall water year percentage flow, for virtually any below-average water year. As noted in the UWMP, the anticipated share of Kings River water is shown as 32,100 AFY (UWMP Table 6-4) in 2040 for an average water year. As discussed in the UWMP, the City has recently executed a contract with FID for development of a new firm water supply starting at 1,000 AFY in 2020 and increasing to a maximum of 7,000 AFY by 2045 and thereafter. This new supply will not have the variability of the existing supply
6.1.2 FRIANT CVP SURFACE WATER
Over the period of 1986 through 2016, the average Class II allocation has been 38 percent of contracted amount. However, Class II supplies are particularly subject to the water year type. However, these supplies are relatively small and would not have significant impact on the total supply.
While Class I entitlements do not currently affect the City’s FID supplies, they will affect the future-year GWD and IWD entitlements. Class I allocations in the five multiple-dry years were 0 percent of the contracted amount for all five years.
6.1.3 SUPPLY FROM STORAGE
The contract for the Waldron facility allows annual withdrawals of up to approximately 9,000 AFY, while the Boswell Facility allows up to 4,500 AFY. According to the UWMP, the combined withdrawal limit from the two facilities is 13,500 AFY. In any year where surface water deliveries are substantially limited, the City would want to use these resources to the limit.
City of Clovis May 2025
Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Six: Single-Dry and Multiple-Dry Year Water Supplies 6-2
A related matter is how contributions are made to supply storage. Whereas in normal years the City is making deposits to both facilities, in a drier year those contributions would be reduced or halted since the surface supplies necessary for the deposits would not be available. Since the deposits come from surface water resources not counted in the City’s water balance, being acquired under separate FID agreements, the curtailment of deposits does not reduce the City’s water demand.
6.1.4 GROUNDWATER
As of the preparation of the 2020 UWMP, the City of Clovis obtains groundwater from more than 30 wells, located throughout the service area. The total well production is estimated at 37,290 gallons per minute (gpm).
According to the UWMP, the City aims to reduce its direct groundwater consumption whenever possible.
Most the City’s water demands will be met by a combination of surface water and supplies from storage, in water years when those two resources are sufficient to meet demands. In drier years, when surface water supplies are limited, the City will pump groundwater, potentially beyond the 9,400 AFY accounted for in a normal year, to make up the shortfall but not to an unsustainable level as discussed in the NKGSP.
The City will also recharge surface waters when available to allow for additional groundwater pumping when needed.
Planning to make that objective possible is very important, as Chapter 6 of the UWMP states that the sustainable groundwater supply in the City service area is 9,400 AF per year, for normal, dry, and multidry years. For the time being, there is no restriction against pumping groundwater above the sustainable aquifer yield; however, the NKGSP indicates the City must sustainably use groundwater.
This WSA uses 9,400 AF per year as the sustainable groundwater pumping amount, as stated in the UWMP. Due to the very large size of the aquifer underlying the City, available groundwater is not quickly affected by the type of water year. Anticipating a mix of wet and dry years similar to what has been historically seen, this WSA does not reduce available groundwater in dry or multiple-dry years; however, the City will be prioritizing use of other supplies over groundwater when possible.
6.1.5 RECYCLED WATER
Recycled water production, being tied directly to indoor water use, does not vary significantly with the water year type, and is not adjusted from normal for this analysis.
6.2 CHANGES IN WATER SOURCE RELIABILITY OVER THE PLANNING
HORIZON
In 2020, surface water made up 58 percent of the City’s direct water supply. In 2030, the surface water supply is planned to be 53 percent of the total while the supply from storage will have increased to 18 percent in a normal year. Groundwater will remain an important component of the water supply in the near future.
This means the City’s reliance on surface water supplies, either directly used or pumped from subsurface storage, will have increased to 71 percent of the total. While there is a margin of normal year supply available over planned demand over the entire planning horizon, some provision may have to be made for additional reliable storage to account for such a large portion of surface water being subject to water year variability. See the reliability analysis in Section 6.3 following.

Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Six: Single-Dry and Multiple-Dry Year Water Supplies 6-3
6.3 SUMMARY OF SINGLE-DRY AND MULTIPLE-DRY YEAR RELIABILITY OVER
THE PLANNING HORIZON
Supply for dry years would be drawn from a combination of Kings River surface water, supply from storage, groundwater, and recycled water. As shown in the UWMP, it is anticipated that surface water supplies from the FID Firm Water Agreement would still be available during drought years. Other firm water supply sources are groundwater, banked water, and recycled water, all of which are considered resilient against drought compared to surface water supplies. Groundwater banking activities would decrease to accommodate the decreased surface water supplies while still being able to use previously banked groundwater supplies from the Waldron and Boswell facilities. Project demand was assumed to be constant across all water years.
The supplies that would be available during single-dry and multiple-dry years in 2030 (at assumed Project buildout) are summarized in Table 6-1. As shown, adequate supplies would be available to supply the City and along with the estimated Project demand of 259.3 AFY, under all studied conditions. Further, the excess demand associated with the Project (104.6 AFY), over the originally planned land use, accounts for
13.7 percent of the excess supply without conservation and 1.7 percent of excess supply with conservation in the most critical year analyzed – the Single Dry Year. The City has a Water Shortage Contingency Plan (WSCP) (Provost & Pritchard Consulting Group 2021) in place that could be partially or fully implemented if needed or mandated. The ‘demand with conservation’ values are reduced to reflect implementation of various stages of the WSCP, as discussed in the UWMP.

6.4 CLIMATE-BASED RELIABILITY FACTORS
This WSA defers to the UWMP for consideration of the overall effects of climate change upon supply reliability. Climate change has been considered in the preparation of the UWMP.
City of Clovis May 2025
Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Seven: Operational Reliability 7-1
7 OPERATIONAL RELIABILITY
The City’s surface water entitlement does not accrue all at once during a given water year. Rather, the Kings River entitlement accrues daily throughout the year based on actual river runoff and the Kings River Water Association (KRWA) entitlement schedule. The daily nature of the Kings River supply is especially important early in the water year, which begins October 1. The very low river flows in October and November mean that supply is low, and the City must rely on other water supplies during those months.
The relatively large supplies available from storage help mitigate the seasonal nature of the surface water supply, and these are further backed up by groundwater supplies equivalent to almost half the City’s total annual demand.
The City has not had any issue with temporary water shortages to date. The City’s WMP and UWMP indicates a need to increase their surface water and groundwater supplies to meet future demands and provides detail on how much of each supply is needed compared to the existing supplies. The WMP also includes a Capital Improvements Program identifying capital projects that are necessary to acquire and facilitate the movement of current and future water supplies throughout the City’s system in a reliable manner. The City’s adherence to their planning documents and consistent development of these water supplies and infrastructure is critical for the City’s continued growth and development and will provide operational reliability into the future.

Water Supply Assessment: Infill Rezone Program Section Eight: Conclusions 8-1
8 CONCLUSIONS
As summarized in Table 8-1, the City has adequate supplies to meet the needs of all the City’s water customers including the Project, in normal water years, over the 20-year planning horizon.
In the buildout year, if demand is as projected, the City will have sufficient water to meet dry year demands of all dry year event types. Conservation measures, detailed in the Water Shortage Contingency Plan, have been developed that would mitigate possible shortfalls by reducing demand approximately 15 percent. Evidence from the 2013 to 2015 drought suggests that those results, and more, are achievable.
Additionally, as the City has surplus water supplies in normal years, short-term additional groundwater extraction in the single-dry and multiple-dry years is also planned as part of their water portfolio.
As discussed in Section 7, the City has plans to continue to acquire water supplies and construct infrastructure to supply current and future water users. Therefore, we conclude the City of Clovis has adequate water supplies to meet the needs of the City including additional demands associated with this Project in normal, dry, and multi-dry years given the previously discussed potential demand reductions and supply augmentations.
8.1 CONCLUSIONS INCLUDING ADDITIONAL WSAs
Since the 2020 UWMP was adopted, five WSAs have been prepared for the City, including this one. It is important to understand the cumulative impact of the additional demands associated with WSAs over and beyond the demands analyzed in the 2020 UWMP.

The demands in Table 8-1 include those demands noted in the UWMP, the additional demands associated with the Project evaluated in this WSA (105 AFY), as discussed in Section 2.2, and the additional demands discussed in the previously prepared WSAs. Similarly, the noted Excess/Deficit reflects the difference between these summated demands and the total supply noted in the UWMP. This approach accounts for the additional demands associated with the proposed land use type above the demands associated with the originally planned land use type. The project creates a deficit of supply in the Single-Dry year and Year 4 of the Multiple-Dry Year. Scenarios in the amount of 116 AFY and 117 AFY if conservation measures are not implemented. Assuming conservation measures would be implemented and effective, the deficit can be mitigated through conservation measures.
