developed by MacKay & Somps Civil Engineers, Inc. applies rational method peak flowrate calculations with closed-conduit pipe and open channel routing computations. TLW is categorized as a one-dimensional steady-state model which computes friction and minor losses for partially or fully flowing pipes/channels.
The Alameda County Flood Control District manual uses a modified form of the rational method for estimating peak flow applicable for small watersheds, natural or urbanized, with drainage areas less than 300 acres. The rational method correlates peak discharge to rainfall intensity through the following formula:
Rational Method:
Q=
CIA
Where: Q = peak discharge (cfs)
C = runoff coefficient (unitless)
I = design rainfall intensity (in/hr)
A = tributary drainage area (ac)
• Determine Maximum 10-year flowrate discharging into the proposed re-graded ditch + culvert Q = CIA
C = 0.30 Per “Table 2- Basic Runoff coefficients for particular land use and soil type” of Alameda County Flood Control District Hydrology and Hydraulics Manual a C value of 0.25 is recommended but for conservative measures the C value of 0.30 is chosen.
A= 86.9 AC The project watershed has an overall area of 86.9 acre, refer to Appendix B.
I = 1.30 in/hr Rainfall Intensity (I10) is based on the Mean Annual Precipitation, MAP and time of concentration, Tc. The Tc for the watershed is estimated using approximate the longest flow path length. For this project we are assuming a minimum inlet time of 20 minutes. By using the project location on attachment 6, “Mean Annual Precipitation” the MAP is 16. Per attachment 7, “Rainfall Intensity -10 year storm” of Alameda County Flood Control District Hydrology and Hydraulics Manual using an MAP =16 and Tc=20 min the I = 1.30 in/hr
Q = 0.30*(1.30 in/hr)*(86.9 AC)
Q10 = 33.9 cfs
• TLW c
alculations for the trapezoidal channel are calculated based on the following criteria:
Q10 = 33.9 cfs
Chan
nel base = 2ft

N value = 0.03 Per “Table 9 – Manning’s Roughness Coefficient” of Alameda County Flood Control District Hydrology and Hydraulics Manual, smooth geometric earth channel.
Slope = 0.007 min
Side Slope = 3:1
The trapezoidal ditch has been designed to allow a maximum 18” depth of ponding.
The
TLW results above illustrate that at minimal slope conditions of 0.007 the ditch flow will never exceed 1.5 feet in depth since the normal depth given is 1.457 feet. • TLW calculations for the 24” SD culvert are calculated based on the following criteria:
Q10 = 33.9 cfs
Pipe
Diameter = 24 in
N value = 0.014 Per “Table 9 – Manning’s Roughness Coefficient” of Alameda County Flood Control District Hydrology and Hydraulics Manual, reinforced concrete pipe for conduits less than 36” diameter
Slope = 0.025

MEMORANDUM 19887.1DG.D

19887.000.MM-Tech-Memo-2021_0804.doc
The
TLW results yield a normal depth of 1.68 feet for a design flow of 33.9 cfs, resulting in the pipe flowing 90% full under a supercritical flow regime.
Summary:
Based on the above methodology and analysis results it has been confirmed that the proposed trapezoidal re-graded ditch and replacement culvert will have adequate capacity to contain and convey the calculated 10-year design storm runoff flow. Therefore, it has been demonstrated that the proposed ditch re-grading and 24” culvert replacement will correct the current drainage issues and re-establish the historic drainage patterns towards the south and will adequately convey the anticipated design storm flows.

Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ 1 Olberding Environmental March 2022
1.0 SUMMARY
1.1 Summary
Olberding Environmental, Inc. (Olberding Environmental) has prepared this Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan (MMP) on behalf of the City of Dublin (Permittee) to provide compensatory mitigation for impact s to wetland habi tat resulting from the Croak Road Ditch/Dr ainage Maintenance Project (Project).
The Project is located within the City of Dublin, along the east shoulder of Croak Road, north of Interstate 580 (I -580). The Project Area encompasses approximately 1.69 a cres (Attachment 1, Figure 1-4). The northe rn boundary of the Project Area is located at the intersection of Dublin Boulevard and Croak Road, and the Project Area runs south for appr oximately 1,200 feet along Croak Road before terminating.
The proposed Project involves the excavation of accumulated sediment (233 cu bic yards) from an existing engineered roadside ditch, reestablishing the historic capacity and function within the City of Dublin drainage facility. The ditch, located along the eastern embankment of Croak Road, historically conveyed stormwater runoff from the surrounding hillsides now containing the Jordan Ranch and Positano Development Projects. Accumulated sediment has completely filled a majority of the ditch extending from the intersection of Croak Road and Dublin Boulevard south, to the culverted crossing of Croak Road where it parallels the I -580 Freeway. Due to the buildup of sediment in the ditch, flows are now redirected across the adjacent property (Chen Property).
Proposed maintenance (removal of sediment and reestablishment of the original engineered configuration of the ditch) and replacement of the buried culvert under Croak Road, would restore the deteriorated facility to its historic function.
The Project will result in the permanent fill of jur isdictional wetland/waters that total 0.501 acre (97.7 cubic yards) (Attachment 1, Fig ure 8). The 0.501 acre of perm anently impacted wetlands will be mitigate d at a 2:1 ratio ( 1.002 acre) and const ructed within the nearby Eagle Ridge Preserve – East Property.

1.3 Project Description
The proposed Project involves the excavation of accumulated sediment (233 cu bic yards) from an existing engineered roadside ditch, reestablishing the historic capacity and function within the City of Dublin drainage facility. The di tch, located along the eastern embankment of Croak Road, historically conveyed stormwater runoff from the surrounding hillsides now containing the Jordan Ranch and Positano Development Projects. Accumulated sediment has completely filled a majority of the ditch extending from the intersection of Croak Road and Dublin Boulevard south, to the culverted crossing of Croak Road where it parallels the I-580 Freeway. Due to the buildup of sediment in the ditch, flows are now redirected across the adjac ent property (Chen Property) and a portion or Croak R oad. Proposed maintenance (removal of sediment and reestablishment of the original engineered configuration of the ditch) would rest ore the deteriorated facility to its historic function. Attachment 1, Figures 7 and 8, depict the Project’s impacts and mitigation.
The Project will result in the permanent fi ll o f Waters of th e State that total 0. 501 acre (97.7 cubic yards) of wetlands/waters resulting from Project development.
As shown in Table 1 below, there would be i mpacts to two juris dictional features, one lar ge freshwater emergent wetland, and one small seasonal wetland swale, totaling 0.501 acre. These permanently impacted wetland/waters would be mitigated at a 2:1 ratio (1.002 acres)

The mitigation requirement is to create 1.002 acres of seasonal wetland habitat. The Permittee is proposing to establish ( create) 1.002 acre of jurisdictional wetlands within nearby Eagle Ridge Preserve – East Property (Mitigation Property) (Attachment 1, Figure 9). Proposed m itigation will be provided through construction (establishment/creation) of seasonal wetland habitat.
2.0 OBJECTIVES
The primary objective of the Mitigation Property is to provide compensatory mitigation for un - avoidable impac ts through the establishment of seasonal wetlands. A summary of mitigation activities is included below in Table 2.
2.1 Habitat Establishment (Creation)
Establishment (creation) means the manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biologic al characteristics prese nt to develop a natural resource that did not previously exist at an upland site. Establishment results in a gain in natural resource area and functions.
The mitigation requirement is to create 1.002 acre of seasonal wetland habitat. The Permittee is proposing to establish (create) 1.002 acre of jurisdictional seasonal wetlands within the nearby Eagle Ridge Preserve – East Property.
2.1.1 Seasonal Wetland Establishment
Seasonal wetlands will be established (c reated) by excavating and grading depressions in formerly upland areas. Excavation and grading will expose the clay soils t o rainfall and storm water flows that will typically pond and/or saturate the root zone on a seasonal basis during the late winter through early spring months. Construction of the wet land features in these areas will include compaction of the clay layer to reduce infiltration. The goal is to provide the characteristic interception of precipitation and overland flow into s easonal wetland s t hat w ill help to ensure habitat diversity and ecosystem health.

3.2 Landscape Position
The Project A rea is located within the L ivermore Valley, near the base of a s eries of hills. Th e topography within the Project Area is generally flat, as it is within an alluvial plain. Soils were formed f rom allu vium derived from sandstone and shale, and residuum weathere d from calcareous shale. The Project Area is located along the I-580 corridor between the city centers of Dublin and Livermore.
The Mitigation Property is located within the hills north of the Livermore Valley. The western portion of the Mitigation Property is flat, with a shallow wetland swale feature flowing north to south. The remainder of the Mitigation Property gradually slopes up to the east.
3.3 Topography and Elevations
The topography of the Project Area i s generally flat. There is a gradual gradient sloping south along Croak Road, and the road surface is slightly elevated from th e adjacent roadside ditch. 251
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 7 Elevation ranges from approximately 365 feet above sea level in the north and appr oximately 355 feet above sea level in the south of the Project Area.
The western portion of the Mitigation Property is flat, with an elevation of approximately 730 feet above sea level. A shallow wetland feature bisects the Mitigation Property, flowing north to south. The Mitigation Property gradually slopes up to the east to approximately 755 fe et above sea level.
3.4 Watershed Description
The Project Area is located within the San F rancisco Bay 8 -digit hydrologic unit code (HUC 18050004) and the Lower Arroyo Mocho 12-digit HUC (180500040302) which is approximately 32,593 acres in size. Thi s HUC drains the southern part of Liverm ore, the area north of Pleasanton, the a rea east of Dublin, and i ncludes the area north of Tassajara. The wetland features located within the Project Area are not directly connected to Arr oyo Mocho, as they enter the local storm drain system. A detailed hydrology report can be found in Attachment 3.
The Mitigation Property is located within the San Francisco Bay 8 -digit h ydrologic unit code (HUC 18050004). This HUC includes all of the South San Francisco Bay, eastward to include most of Alameda County. More locally, the Property is within the Lower Arroyo Las Positas 12- digit hydrologic unit code (HUC 18050040203). This HUC includes most of the Livermore area, north and south of I-580.
3.5 Climate and Precipitation
The Livermore Valley of California is characterized by a Mediterranean climate of hot, dry summers and a mild, wet winter. In a typical year, two thirds of the precipitation falls during the “rainy season” of November through February. The valley runs in an east to west direction with hills and low mountains surrounding it. The valley is located approximately 12 miles inland from the San Francisco Bay and approximately 25 miles south of the Suisun Bay.
The annual average rainfall f or the L ivermore area is 14.92 inches (NOAA 2021). Mean maximum temperatures range from a low of 57 degrees Fahrenheit in December and January and a high of 87 degrees Fahrenheit in July and August (NOAA 2021).
3.6 Soils
The USDA Natura l Resources Conservation Servi ce ( formerly the Soil Conservation Service) mapped soil types within the County (NRCS 2022). The Project Area contains one soil type:
• RdA: Rincon clay loam, 0 to 3 percent slopes
252
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 8 Two soil types are found within the Mitigation Property:
• LaD: Linne clay loam, 15 to 30 percent slopes, MLRA 15 • Pb & Pd: Pescadero clay loam, 0 to 6 percent slopes, MLRA 14 The Rincon clay loam is not classified as a Hydric Soil, but both the Linne clay loam and the Pescadero clay loam soils are classified as Hydric Soils (NRCS 2022). Hydric soils are defined by the Nat ional Technical Committe e for Hydric Soils as soils that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or p onding long enough during t he growing season to develop anoxic conditions in the upper part.
3.7 Historic, Existing, and Surrounding Land Uses
The Project Area has existed in a si milar state for several decades, consisting of a pa ved road with a n adjacen t roadside ditch. In the early 2000’ s several residential and commercial developments in the area started development, with the most recent develop ment finishing construction in 2018. The Mitigation Property has also existed in a similar state for several decades, consisting of open grazing and grassland habitat.
3.8 Cultural
A cultural study was conducted by Peak & Associates, Inc. in 2021 and the report concluded that there are no known histo rical sites within the Project Area. If archeolo gical dis coveries are encountered during the course of construction, various mitigation measures will be implemented, and an archeological mitigation plan will be prepared.
3.9 Vegetation
A wetland delineation of the Project Area was conducted in 2018 and found that the Project site supports four habitat types that consist of developed, freshwater emergent wetland, ruderal, and seasonal wetland swale. A wetland delineation of the Mitigation Property was conducted in 2021 and found that the Mitigation Property supports two habitat types that consist of annual grassland and a seasonal wetland swale. Generalized plant community classifications were used to classify the habitat types found on the Property. The final cla ssification and char acterization of the habitat types of the Project Area and Mitigation Property were based on field observations.
3.9.1 Project Area Habitat Types
Developed
The developed habitat on the Project consists of the paved road -base of Croak Road. There is little to no vegetation growing in these areas. Some ruderal species are located along the edge of the road, or growing from cracks in the pavement, an d include Italian ryegrass (Festuca perennis) and rip gut brome (Bromus diandrus).
253
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 9 Freshwater Emergent Wetlan d
There is a large freshwater emergent wetland that runs north to south, parallel and adjacent to Croak Roa d. Domi nant vegetation within this featu re i ncludes narrow lea f cat tail ( Typha latifolia), curly dock ( Rumex crispus), Italian rye grass (Festuca perennis), baltic rush ( Juncus balticus), flatsed ge ( Cyperuss eragrostis), Mediterranean barley ( Hordeum marnium ), and rabbit’s foot grass ( Polypogon mons peliensis). This emergent wetland c ontinues onto the adjacent Chen Property.
Ruderal/Annual Gr assland
There is a small area of ruderal habitat south of Croak Road, but still within the city right-of- way. This area is s urrounding a culvert and consists of hi ghly disturbed and ruderal vegetation including wild oat ( Avena fatua) , perennial pepperweed ( Lepidium latifoliu m), b lack mustard (Brassica nigra), yellow star thistle ( Centaurea solstitialis), and rip gut brome. A large portion of the Chen Property ad jacent to the Pr oject site is currently u ndeveloped grazing la nd.
Vegetation in this area includes wild oat, soft chess (Bromus hordeaceous), rip gut brome, Italian rye grass, yellow star thistle, and Mediterranean linseed (Bellardis trixago).
Seasonal Wetland S wale
There is a small seasonal wetland swale located at the very south end of the Project Area. This feature is the outlet fo r the culvert that flows under Croak Road. This feature was domi nated by vegetation such as Baltic rush, Mediterr anean barley, cu rly dock, and wild radish ( Raphanus raphanistrum).
3.9.2 Mitigation Property Habitat Types
Annual Grassland
Most of the Mitigation Property consists of annual grassl and habitat that is regularly grazed by cattle. This annual grassland habitat is dominated by non-native annual grasses and forbs such as wild oat, ripgut brome ( Bromus diandrus ), wa ll barley ( Hordeum murinum ), Italian ryegrass , black mustard , milk thistle ( Silybum marianum ), heron bill filaree ( Erodium cicutarium ), and California burclover (Medicago polymorpha).
Seasonal Wetland S wale
There is a long, linear seasonal wetland feature that bisects the Mitigation Property. This feature begins at the fence line on the north boundary of the Eagle Ridge Preserve – East Property. There is a small, 6-inch culvert that runs under Manning Road that feeds the feature. The swale then flows southwest off the Property through one of two culverts and into the West Branch of Cayetano Creek. While the north end of this feature is unvegetated due to cattle grazing and wallowing, t he rest of this feature is vegetated largel y with Mediterranean ba rley and some annual grassland species. This feature is very shallow with berms of onl y 2 – 4 inches but ha s a distinct change in vegetation along its boundary.

Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 10 3.10 Wetlands/Waters of the U.S.
Hydrological characteristics, flow, and connectivity of the Project Area were determined in 2018 during a wetland delineation following USACE standard protocol on the Property and surrounding areas under the same owner ship. The delineation has not been verified but it identified the pre sence of approximately 0.542 acre of wetlands within the study area as shown on Attachment 1, Figure 6.
Hydrological characteristics, flow, and connectivity of the Mitigation Property were determined in 2021 durin g a wetland delineation following USACE standard protocol on the Property and surrounding areas under the same ownership. The delineation was verified on May 17, 2021 and includes the se asonal wetland swale that bisects the Mitigation Property (Attachment 1, Figure 7).
3.11 Special-Status Species
A Biological Resource Assessment was completed by Olberding Environmental in 2016 for the Project Area and in 2022 for the Mitigation Property and found that the Property has t he potential to support numerous special s tatus plants and animals . Th e p resence of seasonal wetlands on the Property supports a wide variety of wildlife. S pecial-status species with the potential to occur are listed below.
• Prostrate Vernal Pool Navarretia ( Navarretia prostrata) CNPS 1B. This spec ies is found in vernal pools and similar habitats. There is a recorded CNDDB occurrence of this species within the Project Area. The freshwater emergent wetland habitat found east of Croak Road provides suitable habitat for this species in the Project Area. This species is not anticipated to occur within the Mitigation Property. • San Joaquin Spearscale ( Atriplex joaquiniana). CNPS List 1B. This species is found among chenopod scrub, meadows, s eeps, playas, and valley and foothill grasslands with alkaline soils. The freshwater emergent wetland habitat found east of Croa k Road provides suitable habitat fo r this species within the Project Area . A CNDDB occurrence of this species occurs immediately west of the Mitigation Property, and may occur within the Mitigation Property.
• Congdon’s Tarplant (Centromadia parryi ssp. congdonii). CNPS List 1B. This species typically oc curs in valley and foothill grasslands in moist alkaline soils . There is a recorded CNDDB occurrence of this species wi thin the Pr oject Area. The freshwater emergent wetland habitat found e ast of Cr oak Roa d provi des suitable habitat for this species within the Project Area . An extant CNDDB occurrence of this species overlaps with part of th e Eagle Ridge Preserve – East Property, therefore it is considered present within the Mitigation Property.
255
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 11 • California Red -Legged Frog ( CRLF) (Rana draytonii ). Federally T hreatened, California Species of Special Concern. This species is found in lowlands , foothill woodland and gras slands, near marshes, la kes, ponds, or other water sources. These amphibians require dense shrubby or emergent vegetation closely associated with deep still or slow moving water. Generally, these frogs favor intermittent streams with water at least two and a half feet deep and where the shoreline has relatively intact emergent or shoreline vegetation. CRLF is known from streams with relatively low gradients and those waters where introduced fish and bullfrogs are absent. There is a recorded CNDDB occurrence of this species wi thin the P roject Area. The freshwater emergent wetland habitat found east of Croak Road provi des suitable habitat for this spe cies within the Project Area. There is a CNDDB occurrence of this species immediately adjacent to the Mitigation Property. Due to the close proximity of recent and nearby occurrences, there is a h igh potential for CRLF to use the Mitigation Property in a dispersal and upland capacity.
• California Tiger Salamander ( Ambystoma calif orniense). Federally Threatened, State Threat ened. This species prefer s vernal pools and other temporary ponds as breeding pools. However, they may also use permanent manmade ponds as breedi ng habitat. A minimum of ten wee ks is required to complete larval development through metamorphosis, at which time the larvae will normally w eigh about ten grams. The freshwater emergent wetland habitat found east of Croak Road provi des suitable habitat for this species within the Project Area. The Mitigation Property does not contain suitable CTS breeding ponds; however, the grassland habi tat within the site contained structural features such as small mammal burrows that could provide suitable upland habitat w ithin a close proximity to known CTS breeding ponds. For these reasons, there is a high potential for CTS to occur within the Mitigation Property. • Burrowing Owl ( Athene cunicularia ). California Sp ecies of Special Concern.
Burrowing owls are ground dwelling members of the owl family and are small brown to tan colored birds with bold spots and barring. Burrowing owls generally require open annual grassland habitats in which to nest, but can be found on abandoned lots, roads, airports, and other urban areas. Burrowing owls generally use abandoned California ground squirrel holes for their nesting burrow, but are also known to use pipes or other debris for nesting purposes. Burrowing owls prefer annual grassland habitats with low vegetative cover. A CNDDB occurrence of this species is located east of the Mitigation Property.
Wintering owls have been observed just west of the site at Eagle Ridge Preserve for many years, most recently in November 2018. The Mitigation Propert y contains similar soil composition and grassland habitat as the adjacent Eagle Ridge Preserve to the west of the site. Additionally, the grasslands within the Mitigation Property provide suitable foraging habitat within the site, and the ample acti ve ground squirrel burrow complexes 256
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 12 onsite create suitable breed ing habitat for burrowing owl. For these reasons, burrowing owl may occur in the Mitigation Property in a breeding and foraging capacity. • Red-shouldered Hawk ( Buteo lineatus ). State Protected. This medium-sized raptor’s habitat varies from bottomland hardwoods and riparian areas to upland deciduous or mixed deciduous-conifer forest, and almost always includes some form of water, such as a swamp, marsh, river, or pond. A red-shouldered hawk has been previously observed on the adjacent property to the Project Area. T he f reshwater emergent wetland ha bitat provides potential foraging habitat for the species in the Project Area. This species has also been observed foraging in the Mitigation Property , and is present in a foraging capacity.
• Red-Tailed Hawk ( Buteo jamaicensis ). State Protected. This large raptor forages among grassland habitat, and nest s within large trees. This spec ies has been obser ved foraging within the Chen Property, adjacent to the Project Area. The freshwater emergent wetland and ruderal habitat provide potential foraging habita t for this species in the Project Area. This speci es has been frequently observed foraging in the Mitigation Property and has been recently observed nesting in the Eucalyptus trees immed iately south of the Mitigation Property. Therefore, this species is present within the Mitigation Property.
• Prairie Falcon (Falco mexicanus). California Species of Special Concern. This raptor is known to inhabit dry open terrain either in level or hilly habitats. Prairie falcons nest on cliffs, but will forage far afield. Similar in appearance to the female of the smaller merlin ( Falco columbarius), it s hows a darker facial stripe than the merlin. The wings and tail ar e pale brown and the unders ide is cream -colored and heavily spotted. Prey species are birds and small mammals. This species has a high potential to forage across the Mitigation Property, but there is no potential for nesting. • American Kestrel (Falco sparverius). State Protected. This small raptor forages among open areas with short ground vegetation and sparse trees including meadows, grasslands, deserts, parks, farm fields, cities, and suburbs. Kestrels utilize cavities in trees for nesting and hunt small rodents and birds. This species was observed foraging within the Chen Property, adjacent to the Project Area. The freshwater emergent wetland and ruderal habitat provide potential foraging habitat for this species in the Project Area. This species has been frequently observed foraging in the Mitigation Property , and is present in a foraging capacity.
• White-tailed Kite ( Elanus leucurus), CDFW Fully Protected. This small hawk is found a mong various grassland habitats, including undisturbed, open grasslands, 257
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 13 meadows, farmlands, and emergent wet lands. Nests are typi cally placed near the top of dense tree stands such as oak or willow and are located near foraging areas. The freshwater emergent wetland provides potential foraging habita t for this species on the Project Area. White-tailed kites have been frequ ently obse rved foraging in and around the Mitigation Property during survey events. There are several large willow trees within the riparian habitat near to the Mitigation Property that could be suitable nest sites for white-tailed kite. For these reaso ns, whi te-tailed kite has a high potential to occur in a foraging capacity.
• Loggerhead Shrike (Lanius ludovicianus ). Federal Species of Specia l Con cern, California Species of Special Concern. This small to medium sized bird prefers open habitats with scattered shrubs, trees, posts, fences, utility lines, or other perches. It occurs only rarely in heavily urbanized areas, but is often found in open cr opland. These birds use shrubs, dense trees, and thickets of vegetation for nesting sites. The freshwater emergent wetland and ruderal habitat provide potential foraging habitat for this species in the Project Area. This species has been observed foraging in the Mitigation Property, and is present in a foraging capacity.
• Tricolored Blackbird ( Agelaius tricolor ). Federal Species of Special Concern, California Species of Special Concern. This small to medium s ized bird is highly colonial and nests in marshy habitats, often in large stands of blackberry and cattail. The freshwater emergent wetland habitat provides pot ential nesting habitat for this species in the Project Area. F oraging opportunities exist across the Mitigation Property for this species. This species may occur in a foraging capacity in the Mitigation Property. • Golden Eagle ( Aquila chrysaetos ). California Fully Pr otected. The golden eagle is typically found in open grasslands, pastures, and oak woodland, often near lakes and rivers. Their plumage is dark brown overall, with some white at the base of the tail, and golden-to-blonde feathers on the nape of the neck. The bill and t alons are black and the cere (soft membrane that covers the nostrils) and feet are yel low. T here are three CNDDB occurrences of this s pecies located near the Mitigation Property. Additionally, golden eagles have been observed foraging within the a djacent Eagle Ridge Preserve during several survey events. For these reasons, g olden eagle is present in the Mitigation Property in a foraging capacity only.
• American Badger (Taxidea taxus). California Species of Special Concern. This large member of the weasel family has a flat body with short legs ideally suited to digging burrows. Found in open plains, prairies, forests and grasslands, this species feeds on ground squirrels, mice, and gophers. Badgers mate between July and August, but do not give bi rth until March. There is a CNDDB occurrence of this species located 258
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 14 approximately 3 miles west of the Mitigation Property, 1.7 miles south of the junction of Tassajara Road and Highland Road. Signs of a badger were observed at this location in 1992. The annua l grassland within the Mitigation Property is suitable habitat for American badger. Additionally, signs of badgers and their remains have been observed within the Mitigation Property and badgers have been observed in the adjacent Eagle Ridge Preserve. For these reasons, American badger may occur in the Mitigation Property.
• San Joaquin Kit Fox ( Vulpes macrotis ). Federally Threatened , California. The San Joaquin kit fox (SJKF) has a slim body with large, conspicuous ears, and a long, bushy, black tipped tail. It is the smallest canid species in North America. The SJKF l ives in annual grassland habitats where friable soils are presen t in which they may excavate den sites. The general habitat requirement for the kit fox is annual grasslands or grassy open habitat sta ges with scattered shrubby vegetation. Food requirements for the SJKF are rodents, insects, and even garbage in urbanized a reas. Grassland habitats with a large rodent prey base and loose textured soils are thought to provide the best habitat for the SJKF. There are two historic CNDDB occurrences in the vicinity of the Mitigation Property. The grassland habitat is considered to be somewhat suitable for SJKF, especially considering the abundance of ground squirrel burrow complexes. However, due to the lack of re cent sightings within the Livermore Valley area, SJKF will mo st likely occur in the Mitigation Property in a dispersal capacity only.
4.0 IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
This secti on presents the Implementation Plan for the mitigation hab itat. H abitat c reation (establishment) will include the construction of a low gradient wetland depressional feature that will develop into seasonal wetland habitat.
Prior to implementation of the wetland construction activities, a qualified biologist will conduct surveys to assess the possible presence of species that may b e i mpacted by construction activities. Work onsite may occur during avian nesting periods; if active nests are observed during wildlife surveys, a suitable buffer will be established to ensur e that active nests are not negatively impacted during implementation of the construction activities.
4.1 Implementation Approach and Sequence
This section summarizes wetlands creation activities and sequencing and ide ntifies the responsibilities of th e Project Biologist and Restoration C ontractor. References to sections providing more detailed information on topics covered are included. The Mitigation Plan shows the areas where wetland creation will occur within the nearby Eagle Ridge Preserve – East Property (See Figure 9). A cross section of the target wetland topography is also on this figure. 259
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 15 Upon completion of construction, installation of fencing, gates and signs will also occur where needed along the perimeter of the Mitigation Property . As-built plan survey activi ties and reporting will also be conducted at completion of work.
4.2 Site Preparation
The w etland establishment site will first be mowed close to the ground and the upper 4 to 6 inches of soil will be excavated an d stockpiled at designated upland locations; this soil will subsequently be spread on the new wetlands to provide organic ma tter and potentially wetland plant seed material to the newly established wetland mitigation habitat.
4.3 Grading
The seasonal wetland s will be mass -graded/excavated using a rubber -tired earth mover to form bottom microtopography and side slopes. Excavat ed materi al will be temporarily stockpiled onsite and will be mounded as a balanced cut-and-fill project.
Finish gra ding will involve grad ing along the edges of an excavated area to tie into existing topography and grading the bottom of the created wetlan d area to provide the appropriate flat topographic relief (<1 -2 percent slope) for wetland hydrology, soil, and plant development.
Grading activities will be monitored by a grade checker using a hand leve l to ensure that the constructed wetlands meet the design criteria. The grade checke r will be u nder the direction of the Project Biologist.
4.4 Revegetation of Disturbed Areas
The created wetland will be seeded with a native seed mix to e nhance wetland veget ation growth. Seeding with native seed mix ( Table 3), coupled with natural colonization by species from seed sources in the existing soils will bring in a mix of both native and non- native species.
The established wetlands are expected to show significant vegetative growth within 3 to 4 years.
Species selected f or the wetland and upland seed mixes were chosen based on their re spective wetland indicator statuses a nd the ability to survive in alkaline/salin e environments. To ensure suitability to the conditi ons at the Project site, many of the species chosen for both t he wetland and upland seed mixes have a moderate to high salt tolerance.
Hydrophytic plant species , or those with an indicator status of FAC, FACW, o r OBL, were chosen for the wetland seed mix as they are more suited to frequent saturation and/or inundation.
Most of the species selected for the upland seed mix have a wetland indicator statu s of FAC, FACU, or UPL as they are more suited to dry conditions.
The areas to be seeded will be harrowed a fter finish grad ing to achieve a one to two- inch deep friable seed bed. The seed m ix will be broadcast at the specified rates and lightly harrowed into 260
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 16 the seed bed to achieve good seed to soil contact. Any erosion control BMPs including fabric and straw wattle installation will occur after broadcast of seed but before application of hydromulch.
A mixture of hydromulch, tackifier, and water at appropri ate rates will be sprayed with a trailer or truck mount ed hydroseeder over the top of the seeded soil bed. Seeding is planned to occur right before the rainy season (i.e., September/October) or e arly in the rainy season (i.e., November). It is anticipated th at wetland p lant species will colonize rapidly during t he winter/spring following construction.

4.5 Implementation Schedule
Construction of the mitigation habitat is planned 2022 depending on receipt of permits and authorizations. Because the established wetlands will no t receive supp lemental irrigation water , the s eeding timing is important. Due to the unpredictabil ity of the rainy season, the Proj ect Biologist will schedule the seeding. After initial planting and seeding is complete, the site will be maintained and managed by activities described in this MMP.
4.6 Documentation of As-Built Conditions
Within 60-days after wetland construction is complete; a post-construction as-built survey will be prepared and submitted to USACE. This report will include:
• The as-built plan based on the post-construction survey. • Description of construction activities, paying particular a ttention to any adjustme nts to the installation plan.
• Photo-documentation of construction activities, as we ll as identific ation of permanent photo point locations.
5.0 MAINTENANCE PLAN
Maintenance will be required in order for the ecological functions and values of the site to meet and/or exceed performance expectations. Maintenance shall be considered habitat management where an adaptive management strategy is employed, and multiple a spects of t he Mitigation Property are evaluated in order to determine th e mos t f easible and desirable maintena nce pathway.
Maintenance activities will be conducted during the five-year establishment period.
5.1 Pest Plant and Wildlife Species
Plant and wildlife species considered to be a threat to the mitigation will be subject to monitoring and control.
Control of nuisance plants may include the use of specific herbicides. Herbicide application is allowed, but only to control small, localized stands of nuisance vegetation. M anual or mechanical control activ ities will be considered first and will be evalua ted for reduced species impacts compared t o herbicides. They may also be uti lized if a n herbicide a pplication is 262
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 18 determined not to be feasible or desirable by the Land Manager. Manual methods include hand pull or the use of handheld tools to remove nuisa nce vegetation . Mechanical methods may include mowing with string trimmer or deck mower as determined by the Land Manager.
The following specifications must be ad hered to prior to application of herbicides within the Mitigation Property.
• Herbicide applicat ion is allowable but should only be considered feasible after manual and me chanical methods have been r uled out. Application of herbicides will b e accomplished in accordance with the following standards:
o Herbicides will be used o nly by a qualified and lic ensed applic ator (QAL) and only applied according to a licensed pest control advisor (PCA) recommendation. o Under the direction of the Land Manage r, a biologica l monitor will accompany sprayers to prevent impacts to non-target native vegetation that is to be retained. o Target vegetation will only be sprayed using EPA -approved herbicides which are recommended for use in wetlands.
o Small spot treatments will be prior itized over l arge-scale broadcast methods t o minimize the footprint of the herbicide application.
• If manua l and mechanical efforts are not ef fective, herbicide may be us ed to target nuisance plant species found on the Property. Nuisance spe cies are defin ed as Cal-IPC high species and moderate broadleaf species. Nuisance sp ecies found within the Property include yellow star thistle, black mustard, bull thistle ( Cirsium vulgare), artichoke thistle (Cynara cardunculus ), and stinkwort ( Dittrichia graveolens ). S tudies have s hown chlorsulfuron (Telar brand) to be a highly effecti ve pre-emergent herbicide that specifically targets broadleaf species, su ch as yellow star thistle . Utilizing a selective herbicide such as chlorsulfuron should be priori tized above using a non- selective herbicide such as glyphosate; however, glyphosate m ay be a viable option as a last resort if all other control efforts are ineffective, or if other wise determin ed by adaptive management.
5.2 Fencing
Fencing to exclude unwanted human activity from the Mitigation Property will be maintained in good condition to prevent unauthorized encroachment. Site fencing will consist of fi ve-strand barb wire wi th t-posts installed at ten feet on center. All new fence that is constructed will be wildlife friendly in that the top and bottom strands will be smooth, and the bottom strand will be no less than 16 inches above the ground.
263
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 19 6.0 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
This section presents the performance standards th at need to be achieved bef ore the compensatory mitigation activities ca n be deemed successful. Annual monitoring re sults will be compared with performance standards to indicate the extent to which the Mitigation Property is developing s uitable wetland habitat. If annual monitoring results fall belo w performance standards, the cau se will be investigated by the Project Biologist a nd adaptive management recommendations will be proposed to remedia te the deficit and attain compliance with the final performance standards.
The seasonal wetland habitat will be monitored, and the results will be compared against performance standards b elow to ensure the site provides high quality ecological functions and values. T here w ill be six performance standards for the created habitat with in the Mitigation Property (Table 5):
• PS-1 - The frequency o f inundation and/or saturation w ill be a minimum of 18.25 continuous days per year within the established (created) wetland habitat. • PS-2 - The established (created) wetland habitat will sho w evidence of ponding in photographs.
• PS-3 – The established (crea ted) wet land habitat will show an increase in vegetativ e cover over 5 years. The wetland will have at least 75% absolute cover by Year 5. • PS-4 – The established (created) wetland habitat will have a minimum of 51 percent absolute cover of OBL, FACW, and FAC species by Year 5. • PS-5 – The established (created) wetland habi tat will meet all three Corps criteria in Years that a wetland delineation is performed (Years 3 and 5). • PS-6 – Nuisance pl ant species cover on the overall site will not be greater th an 10 percent. Nuisance plant species will be thos e that have a “high” rating by Cal-IPC or are “moderate” broadleaf species.
7.0 MONITORING AND REPORTING
Monitoring and reporting f or performance will occ ur for a minimum of 5- years for wetlands/waters or until a ttainment of performance standards. If performance standards are no t met by the end of the stated monitoring and management period for a given habitat t ype, then monitoring can be extended into future years until performance standards are attained, remedial actions may occur, or compensatory mit igation may be required thr ough another mitigation mechanism to make up the difference.
264
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 20 The monitoring objectives:
1. Track habitat progress towards meeting the performance standards, and
2. Identify and remedy any problems that could impact the success of the mitigation effort and/or compromise the ecological functions and values of the site.
The m onitoring protocol and results will be r eviewed annually. Adjus tments to monitoring procedures may be required as the site changes over time, or if logistical problems r ender a procedure unduly difficult to conduct. Such adjustments will be discussed with the regulatory agencies as necessary. Af ter reviewing the monitoring reports, the regulatory agencies may also have suggestions for adjusting the monitoring progr am. Regulatory agency suggestions will be reviewed and, if appropriate, incorporated into the following year's monitoring program. The key is to anticipate that the monitoring program may need occasional adjustments to remain accurate, complete, and feasible.

Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 22 7.1 Seasonal Wetland Monitoring
Hydrology data will be collected from the established (created ) habitat to coincide with the California rainy season (i.e., Sept/Oct to Apr/May). The first hydrology data collection event will occur with the onset of fall rains no more than two weeks after the first soaking r ain event (i.e., one inch of rain in 24 ho urs). Hydrology monitoring will occur at least monthly during the rainy season and will not end until bankfull ponding is documented with a photograph and/or at least
18.25 days of ponding/saturation has occurred. Monthly hydrology monitoring events will occur until the wetlands are totally dry, presumably early- or mid-summer.
At each data collection event, w ater depths will be recor ded from staff ga uges which will be marked at one-inch increments and placed in the bottoms of the habitat features they are intended to provide data for or collected by hand with a measuring stick or ruler.
Monitoring of wetland vegetation using randomly placed one square meter quadrats will occur during the spring moni toring event. Quadrats will be placed randomly within the seasonal wetland habitats. Each plant species occurring within the quadrat will be recorded and assi gned an absolute co ver value. The ab solute percen t cover of bare ground and thatc h will also be recorded from each quadrat. Photos will be taken of the quadrats and a representative sample will be included in annual monitoring reports.
Photographic monitoring will also occur at each wet land data collection event from fixed photo points and any other relevant areas. Photos of actively ponded wetlands will be taken and provided in monitoring reports.
Annual precipitation data will be obtained from the closest climatological station and included in monitoring reports.
Vegetation, soil, and hydrologic conditions will be monitored using the USACE’ 1987 Wetlands Delineation M anual, the Corps’ Se ptember 2008 Regional Supplement to Corps of Engineers Wetland Deli neation Manual: Ari d West (Version 2.0) (Arid West Supplement), and relevant USACE guidance documents whereby field observations will be made in the wetlands during the rainy season until the wet land soil and hydrology cri teria are met. The percentage and depth of ponded water and/or soil saturation will be noted during monitoring visits. This informati on will be recorded on the Arid West field data sheet.
7.2 Non-Native Invasive Vegetation Monitoring
Plant species designated by the California Invasive Plant Council (Cal-IPC - https://www.cal- ipc.org/plants/inventory/) to be pl ant pests (impact rating of “ high”) will not be allowed to colonize and become established within the Mitigation Property. The percent cover of non-native invasive species wi ll come from qualitative plant community assessme nt, wetland deli neation 267
Croak Road Ditch/Drainage Maintenance Project Wetland Mitigation Monitoring Plan ____________________________________________________________________________ _________________ Olberding Environmental March 2022 23 vegetative data, direct observation, and/or photo documentation. Any problematic or new stands of non-native invasive vegetation will be p hotographed and described in the monitoring r eport along with recommendations for control and/or eradication.
7.3 Photo Documentation
Photo documentation will occur during all monitoring years from permanent photo stations that will be e stablished during construction and shown on the a s-built plan drawi ngs. Photo station locations will be selected to illustrate year -to-year progress in relation to the ex isting habit at.
Photo locations will be recorded with GPS equipment to ensure photos w ill be take n from the same location each year. Ph otographs will also be taken to record any events that may have a significant effect on the success of restoration, such as flood, fire, or vandalism. The location and direction of view of t he photo stations will be pr ovided with all monitoring reports. Color photocopies of the permanent photo st ations will be included as an attachment i n monitoring reports.
7.4 Annual Report
Habitat establishment monitoring reports summarizing the results of the monitoring effort will be submitted to the regulatory agencies by December 31 every year for the first 5 years.
The annual report will d ocument the degree to which the Mitigation Property is meeting the performance s tandards. The monitoring reports will descr ibe any deficie ncies in atta ining and maintaining performance standards and any remedial action proposed, approved, or performed. If remedial action(s) have been completed, the annual report will also evaluate the effectiveness of that action.
A final moni toring report sum marizing the mitigatio n project and evaluati ng the site's over all performance will be prepared and submitted at the end of monitoring (Year 5). The fi nal annual report will include a count and assessment of species. A final field visit will be conducted t o verify that onsite conditions are consistent with information documented in the annual reports.
The annual report will include the following information.

8.0 ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT/REMEDIAL MEASURES
Adaptive management is a strategy to deal with unexpected changes in site conditions, responsibilities, or p erformance of the site so th at the compensatory mitigatio n project achieves its objectives and ecological performance standards.
Potential problems that may trigger a need for ada ptive managem ent include failure to attain performance standa rds, fire, subs tantial infestation by non-native plants and animals, and unanticipated anthropogenic problems such as large-scale trespassing and vandalism.
The Project Biologist will regularly analyze site progress as part of monitoring and reporting and will suggest r emedial measures to address unforeseen changes in site co nditions or other components of the mitigation project.
If the an nual monitoring results indicate that the site is fallin g below perfor mance thresh old values, then remedial actions will be implemented and funded by the Permitt ee of the mitigation project. Remedial actions may include but are not limited to: replacement planting, additional 270

To: Wooi J. See Ferris, GH Pacvest
From: Mariana Mena, MacKay & Somps
Subject: Fallon 580 Property – East Dublin GH Pacvest
Hydrology and Hydraulics Calculations for the Ditch Re-Grading Purpose:
This memorandum is prepared to analyze and demonstrate that the proposed re-graded trapezoidal ditch at Old Fallon Road and Croak Road has adequate flow capacity to contain and convey the 10- year design storm. As part of the effort to restore the ditch drainage capacity, the existing 24” CMP culvert which is damaged and mostly buried will be replaced with a new 24” SD culvert will be installed under existing Croak Road to convey the re-graded ditch flows to the existing incised ditch on the south side of Croak Road within the Alameda property which is believed to the be the historical direction of ditch flow.
Background:
The existing roadside ditch is located along the east side of Old Fallon Road and flows from north to south along the western edge of the GH Pacvest property south of Central Parkway. The watershed limits tributary to the existing ditch are comprised of predominantly the open space drainage / pedestrian corridor that runs northeast to southwest through the middle of the existing Jordan Ranch and Positano residential communities. All the runoff from the surrounding Jordan Ranch and Positano developments on both side of the drainage corridor drain to hard-lined pipe systems; that ultimately drain west to the 84” SD trunk main that flows south within the Fallon Road right-of-way. The 84” SD trunk main was built with the Positano Development and sized to convey all the storm runoff flows from the fully developed communities of both Jordan Ranch and Positano. The watershed limits tributary to the 84” SD pipe are outlined per the Dublin Ranch Drainage Master Plan, exhibit titled “Master Drainage Plan Areas and Land Use” dated March 2006, refer to Appendix A. The watershed limits tributary to the existing ditch are illustrated in Appendix B “Existing Ditch Watershed Map”.
Methodology:
The hydrology calculations presented in this memorandum apply the “Rational Method”, which follow the procedures outlined in the Alameda County Hydrology and Hydraulics manual. A Rational Method analysis was performed for the watershed tributary to the existing ditch to determine the runoff volume generated by the watershed in a 10-year design storm. A hydraulic analysis of the proposed re-graded ditch and replacement 24” culvert for the 10-year design storm flows were analyzed using the TLW software. The “TLW Hydrology and Hydraulics” software 289
MEMORANDUM 19887.1DG.D

19887.000.MM-Tech-Memo-2021_0804.doc
developed by MacKay & Somps Civil Engineers, Inc. applies rational method peak flowrate calculations with closed-conduit pipe and open channel routing computations. TLW is categorized as a one-dimensional steady-state model which computes friction and minor losses for partially or fully flowing pipes/channels.
The Alameda County Flood Control District manual uses a modified form of the rational method for estimating peak flow applicable for small watersheds, natural or urbanized, with drainage areas less than 300 acres. The rational method correlates peak discharge to rainfall intensity through the following formula:
Rational Method:
Q=
CIA
Where: Q = peak discharge (cfs)
C = runoff coefficient (unitless)
I = design rainfall intensity (in/hr)
A = tributary drainage area (ac)
• Determine Maximum 10-year flowrate discharging into the proposed re-graded ditch + culvert Q = CIA
C = 0.30 Per “Table 2- Basic Runoff coefficients for particular land use and soil type” of Alameda County Flood Control District Hydrology and Hydraulics Manual a C value of 0.25 is recommended but for conservative measures the C value of 0.30 is chosen.
A= 86.9 AC The project watershed has an overall area of 86.9 acre, refer to Appendix B.
I = 1.30 in/hr Rainfall Intensity (I10) is based on the Mean Annual Precipitation, MAP and time of concentration, Tc. The Tc for the watershed is estimated using approximate the longest flow path length. For this project we are assuming a minimum inlet time of 20 minutes. By using the project location on attachment 6, “Mean Annual Precipitation” the MAP is 16. Per attachment 7, “Rainfall Intensity -10 year storm” of Alameda County Flood Control District Hydrology and Hydraulics Manual using an MAP =16 and Tc=20 min the I = 1.30 in/hr
Q = 0.30*(1.30 in/hr)*(86.9 AC)
Q10 = 33.9 cfs
• TLW c
alculations for the trapezoidal channel are calculated based on the following criteria:
Q10 = 33.9 cfs

The trapezoidal ditch has been designed to allow a maximum 18” depth of ponding.
The
TLW results above illustrate that at minimal slope conditions of 0.007 the ditch flow will never exceed 1.5 feet in depth since the normal depth given is 1.457 feet. • TLW calculations for the 24” SD culvert are calculated based on the following criteria:
Q10 = 33.9 cfs
Pipe
Diameter = 24 in
N value = 0.014 Per “Table 9 – Manning’s Roughness Coefficient” of Alameda County Flood Control District Hydrology and Hydraulics Manual, reinforced concrete pipe for conduits less than 36” diameter

19887.000.MM-Tech-Memo-2021_0804.doc
The
TLW results yield a normal depth of 1.68 feet for a design flow of 33.9 cfs, resulting in the pipe flowing 90% full under a supercritical flow regime.
Summary:
Based on the above methodology and analysis results it has been confirmed that the proposed trapezoidal re-graded ditch and replacement culvert will have adequate capacity to contain and convey the calculated 10-year design storm runoff flow. Therefore, it has been demonstrated that the proposed ditch re-grading and 24” culvert replacement will correct the current drainage issues and re-establish the historic drainage patterns towards the south and will adequately convey the anticipated design storm flows.

Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 1
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Long-Term Resources Management Plan (Plan) was prepared on behalf of the property owner, Rocky Ridge, LLC, which is a California Limited Liability company. The 4-acre Croak Road Management Area (Management Area) will be established within the 171.78- acre Eagle Ridge Preserve East Property (Property) to compensate for unavoidable impacts to seasonal wetlands and special status species dispers al and foraging habitat , taking place along Croak Road, City of Dublin, Alameda County. Attachment 1, Figure 1 depicts the regional location of the Management Area along the Alameda and Contra Costa County line, and Attachment 1, Figure 2 illustrates the vicinity of the Management Area in relationship to Manning Road and the Alameda County line .
Attachment 1, Figure 3 identifies the location of the Management Area on the USGS 7.5 Quadrangle Map for Tassajara. An aerial photograph of the Management Area has been included as Attachment 1, Figure 4.
The Management Area is located in an unincorporated area of Alameda Count y. The Property consists of APN 903-0002-001-01. The surrounding property (which is also sl ated for preservation) is situated on both sides of the Contra Costa and Alameda County line, west of North Livermore Road and south of Manning Road. It also lies immediately north of and adjacent to the Eagle Ridge Preserve, east of Eagle Ridge Preserve N orth and southeast of Cayetano Creek Mitigation Bank (collectively known as Preserve Properties, Attachment 1, Figure 5). The Preserve Properties consists of approximately 890 acres of preserved and managed habitat that is under conservation easements approved by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW).
Within the Management Area, approximately one acre of created seasonal wetland habitat and three acres of upland special status species dispersal and foraging habitat will be preserved for the benefit of species and wetland mitigation requirements associated with the Croak Road Project (Project). The proposed Project involves the excavation of accumulated sediment (233 cubic yards) from an existing engineered roadside ditch, reestablishing the historic capacity and function within the City of Dublin drainage facility. Proposed maintenance (removal of sediment and reestablishment of the original e ngineered configuration of the ditch) would restore the deteriorated facility to its historic function.
The Plan identifies the long- term management strategies for the Management Area. Mitigation within the Management Area will off -set impacts to Californ ia red -legged frog ( Rana aurora draytonii, CRLF) and seasonal wetlands associated with construction of the Project. The Management Area and surrounding lands contain habitat for the CRLF and existing seasonal wetland habitat. There are over 50 stock ponds and numerous recorded occurrences of CRLF in the vicinity of the Management Area, and the Management Area is located within USFWS designated critical habitat (Unit CCS -2B) for CRLF (Attachment 1, Figure 6) . The Management 303
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 2
Area will be professionally managed to benefit of both CRLF and seasonal wetlands and will be placed under a conservation easement recorded in Alameda Official Records.
2.0 PURPOSE OF THIS LONG-TERM RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN
The purpose of the Plan is to ensure the Management Area is managed, monitored, and maintained in perpetuity as an open space preserve benefitting CRLF and seasonal wetland habitat. The Plan establishes objectives, priorities, and tasks for monitoring, managing, maintaining, and reporting.
Preservation of the Management Area will protect 1.02 acres of created seasonal wetland habitat and 2.98 acres of annual grassland habitat. CRLF typically use seasonal wetlands similar to those found within the Management Area as breeding habitat, and the non- native annual grassland habitat within the Management Area can be utilized as foraging and dispersal habitat for the species. CRLF have been identified within the creek channels located on the Preserve Properties immediately west of the Management Area.
The Plan describes veget ation management practices for maintaining seasonal wetland and non- native annual grassland habitat characteristics favorable for CRLF and seasonal wetlands and other associated sensitive species. The primary goals of the Plan are to:
1. Maintain the existing habitat conditions within the Management Area to maximize the suitability of the seasonal wetlands and non-native annual grassland habitat used by CRLF;
2. Monitor the created and existing seasonal wetland and non-native annual grassland habitat conditions in order to promote use by CRLF in the Management Area and the health of the seasonal wetland habitat; and
3. Manage habitat conditions using an adaptive management approach to benefit biological values existing in the Management Area.
The Management Area has been traditionally used for seasonal cattle grazing which is the preferred management tool to reduce wildfire fuel loads and improve or maintain non- native annual grassland habitat for CRLF use and seasonal wetland habitat. Grazing will be conducted in a manner consistent with preservation of CRLF and seasonal wetland habitat requirements. Grazing activities will be managed in a manner consistent with the established parameters for minimum and maximum grass heights and densities, optimal grass biomass and cover, stocking rates and seasonal timing of grazing in order to achieve the following:
• Reduce the wildfire fuel hazard associated with the mass of dry herbaceous vegetation in the non-native annual grasslands during the summer and fall seasons; • Maintain heterogeneity in height structure between patches of the grazed non-native annual grassland to favor non-native annual grassland habitat diversity; and • Manage and potentially reduce invasive pest plant populations. 304
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 3
Additionally, cattle will not be allowed in the newly created wetland areas for at least the first three years to ensure no damage occurs to newly created habitats. If grazing management is determined to be necessary within the sensitive established/enhanced habitats during these restricted times, goats, sheep, and/or mowing will be used. Flash grazing by the goats or sheep may occur within the wetlands during only dry season months.
3.0 ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
3.1 Conservation Easement Grantee
A Conservation Easement (CE) will be legally established over the entire Management Area which will ensure that the area will be conserved (legally protected) forever and prevent any use of the Management Area that would impair or interfere with the conservation functions and values of the preserved area. The CE is provided in Attachment 2. The CE Grantee will be an accredited non- profit land trust. Golden State Land Conservancy (GSLC) will fulfill the role of Grantee and is recognized by CDFW to hold and manage conservation easements and long- term endowment funds.
The responsibilities of the CE Grantee are described in this Plan, the CE and the Endowment Agreement, and include preserving and protecting the conservation values of the Management Area, preventing any activity that is inconsistent with the purposes of the easement, performing annual compliance monitoring inspections, preparing reports on the results of the compliance monitoring inspections, and providing these reports to the Land Manager and Regulatory Agencies on an annual basis. The CE Grantee is also responsible for ensuring that the Land Manager performs its responsibilities under this Plan.
Any notices or communication to the Conservation Easement Grantee should be directed to the GSLC.

The Land Manager, and subsequent land managers upon transfer, is responsible for the following within the Management Area:
• Implementing the elements of this Plan within the Management Area. • To manage and monitor the Management Area in perpetuity to preserve the habitat and conservation values in accordance with the CE and Plan. • Submitting annual reports to the Regulatory Agencies detailing the time period covered.
The Land Manager is responsible for hiring a Monitoring Biologist. The Monitoring Biologist will be a professional botanist, biologist, or restoration ecologist familiar with California flora and fauna, and will have demonstrated knowledge and experience with similar projects. The Monitoring Biologist must also be familiar with vegetation management practices for maintaining target habitat characteristics to ensure the conservation functions and values of the Management Area.
3.3 Grazing Operator
The Grazing Operator will conduct grazing operations with livestock (typically cattle) in a manner which promotes the long- term sustainability of the ecological functions and values of the Management Area. The Land Manager will coordinate with the Grazing Operator, including field and office t asks such as lease management, stocking rates, on/off dates, infrastructure quality, encroachment, etc. The Land Manager will create and manage a lease with the Grazing Operator on behalf of the Property Owner for grazing operation on the site. The grazing lease may be a single year or multiple year lease depending on the level of time and trust between the two entities.
The grazing lease will include a list of the activities that are prohibited as terms and conditions of the CE. The grazing lease operator will signify in writing an understanding of the activities that will not be allowed to occur within the Management Area by execution of the lease contract. A Grazing Management Plan can be viewed as a separate attachment.
4.0 MANAGEMENT AREA DESCRIPTION
4.1 Location
Attachment 1, Figure 1 depicts the regional location of the Management Area in Alameda County, and Figure 2 illustrates the vicinity of the Management Area in relationship to the City of Livermore. Attachment 1, Figure 3 identifies the location of the Management Area on the USGS
7.5 Quadrangle Map for Tassajara. An aerial photograph of the Management Area has been included as Attachment 1, Figure 4.
Access to the Management Area is attained by taking Interstate-580 East from Interstate-680. Take exit 52B for North Livermore Avenue toward Livermore. Turn left (north) at North Livermore 306
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan

Avenue and follow it for 3.6 miles. Turn left (west) at Manning Road and follow it for 1.2 miles before turning left (south) onto the Management Area.
4.2 Habitat Description
The Management Area is located within the northwestern section of Eagle Ridge Preserve East, a upland conservation property, all of which will be managed with the adjacent Preserve Properties as a single contiguous preservation area totaling 1,030 acres ( Attachment 1, Figure 5). The Management Area consists of a linear seasonal wetland swale, two created seasonal wetlands, and non-native annual grassland . The surrounding hills serve as a watershed for a well -defined intermittent creek, a tributary of Cayetano Creek. The Management Area is located within USFWS designated critical habitat unit CCS -2B for CRLF (Attachment 1, Figure 6). The Management Area contains extensive ground squirrel colonies that can provide refuge habitat for numerous special-status species including CRLF.
The majority of the Management Area consists of undeveloped grazing lands that have little- to moderate-sloping topography, a linear, seasonal wetland swale, and two created seasonal wetlands.
The Management Area consists predominantly of non-native annual grassland, which is currently being used for cattle pasture as the main tool for vegetation management.
4.3 Geographic Features
The Management Area lies within the Livermore Valley. The streams that historically flowed into the Livermore Valley basin from all directions filled parts of the valley with more than a mile of poorly consolidated Pliocene to Holocene age sands and gravels (Kasameyer et al. 1984). The nearest fault is the Calaveras Fault, approximately 6 miles east of the Management Area. The Greenville Fault is approximately 8 miles west of the Management Area, and the Hayward Fault is about 16 miles to the west. The last major earthquake on the Hayward Fault occurred in 1868.
The latest seismic probability study for the San Francisco Bay Area assesses the probability of a M6.7 or larger earthquake on the Hayward-Rodgers Creek system as 27 percent between 2003 and 2032.
4.4 Topography
The Management Area consists of undeveloped grazing lands. The western portion of the Management Area is relatively level at an elevation of approximately 776 feet above sea level with a gradual slope to the southwest. The topography slopes up to the east of the Management A rea, with an elevation of approximately 805 feet along the eastern boundary. There is an existing, shallow seasonal wetland swale that flows southwest, across the western portion of the Management Area. The swale is an unnamed tributary to Cayetano Creek, which is part of the greater Arroyo Los Positas watershed which empties into Arroyo Mocho in the City of Dublin. 307

4.5 Hydrology
The principal hydrological sources for the Management Area are direct precipitation, sheet flow, groundwater seepage from uplands, and runoff/overflow. According to California Irrigation Management Information Systems, Pleasanton Station #191 records, the average annual precipitation totals approximately 16.83 inches.
The Management Area is located within the San Francisco Bay 8-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC 18050004). The Management Area falls within the Cayetano Creek watershed with both the east and west branches of Cayetano Creek crossing the preserved properties on the east and west sides respectively. Approximately 63.5% of the surrounding area drains to the west branch of Cayetano Creek whereas the remaining 36.5% drains to the east branch of Cayetano Creek.
4.6 Climate and Rainfall
The San Francisco Bay Area is characterized by dry, mild summers and moist, cool winters. About 80 percent of the total annual precipitation occurs from November through March. In the winter, moisture-laden air moving in from the ocean rises as it reaches the coast and passes inland over the Coast Ranges.
Precipitation data will be monitored and recorded by California Irrigation Management Information System (CIMIS) and data will be gathered monthly from the Pleasanton, California Station (#191) ( http://www.cimis.water.ca.gov/). The table below provides average temperature and precipitation data for a 29-year period between 1961 and 1990.

4.8 Existing Land Uses
The Management Area is currently used as cattle grazing rangeland.
4.9 Adjacent Land Uses
Much of the surrounding land use is grazing and open land and livestock production. Land uses are predominantly agricultural with either grazing or field crop production. Adjacent parcels are currently undeveloped annual grassland/rangeland. All lands to the south and west are currently used as conservation areas with restricted land use for the preservation of ecological functions and values.

4.10 Existing Easements
The Management Area does not include any previously recorded conservation easements or other areas being developed for permittee-responsible mitigation. An exist ing easement (DifWind Management Area) occurs southeast of the Management Area. The title report for the Management Area and surrounding lands is provided in Attachment 3.
5.0 HABITATS AND SPEICES DESCRIPTIONS
The Management Area supports two habitat types consisting of annual grassland and seasonal wetland swale. In classifying the habitat types within the Management Area, generalized plant community classification schemes were used (Sawyer, Keeler -Wolf, and Evens 2009). The final classification and characterization of the habitat types of the Management Area was based on field observations. A figure noting the overall location of each habitat type is included in Attachment 1, Figure 8.
5.1 Annual Grassland
The site includes annual grassland and represents the dominant plant community within the Management Area. The Management Area has been primarily used for grazing in the past. As a result, non-native annual grasses of European origin make up the dominant species. These species include wild oat (Avena fatua), ripgut brome (Bromus diandrus), hare barley (Hordeum murinum spp. leporinum), and Italian ryegrass (Festuca perennis), among others. Common non-native forbs observed during field surveys include black mustard ( Brassica nigra), yellow starthistle (Centaurea solstitialis), Italian thistle (Carduus pycnocephalus), milk thistle (Silybum marianum), filaree (Erodium spp.), and bur clover (Medicago polymorpha), among others.
5.2 Seasonal Wetland Swale
This s wale feature flows southwest across the Management Area before entering one of two culverts and into a tributary of Cayetano Creek. This feature is largely vegetated with seaside barley (Hordeum marinum) and some additional annual grassland species. This feature is very shallow with berms of only 2 – 4 inches but has a distinct change in vegetation along its boundary.
5.3 Special-Status Species
Special-status wildlife species include species listed as Rare, Threatened, or Endangered by the USFWS (2010b & 2010c), species covered by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, or species given special protection by the State of California (CDFW 2010b). A review of the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) identified several special -status species that have the potential to occur in the non-native annual grassland, and seasonal wetland swale located in the Management Area (Attachment 1, Figure 9).
311
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 10
A number of special-status species occur within or adjacent to the Management Area, including prairie falcon ( Falco mexicanus ), California tiger salamander ( Ambystoma californiense ), California red -legged frog ( Rana aurora draytonii ), burrowing owl ( Athene cuni cularia), American badger ( Taxidea taxus ), white-tailed kite ( Elanus leucurus ), golden eagle ( Aquila chrysaetos), San Joaquin kit fox ( Vulpes macrotis mutica ), Congdon’s tarplant ( Centromadia parryi congdonii), and San Joaquin spearscale (Extriplex joaquiniana).
5.3.1 California Red-legged Frog
The following sections provide a summary of the known records for CRLF within the vicinity of the Management Area.
The CRLF is federally listed as threatened and is a California species of special concern. The USFWS has identified critical habitat units for CRLF. The entire Management Area fall within CRLF Critical Habitat Unit CCS-2B.
CRLF have been documented utilizing the pools in the existing riparian habitat of Cayetano Creek just west of the Management Area since 2008. These occurrences are confirmed by CNDDB records, and are located all around the Management Area, recorded by multiple individuals during various times of the year.
One adult CRLF and at least 50 tadpoles were observed just west of the Management Area in a pool of water located within the west branch of Cayetano Creek during the September 2012 survey.
Since this initial survey numerous observations of both CRLF adults and tadpoles have been documented in Cayetano Creek. During an August 2017 survey, four adult CRLF and 20+ tadpoles were observed within a pool of water within Cayetano Creek. In previous years, adults and individuals in various life stages have been observed throughout the Cayetano Creek corridor.
During various 2018 and 2019 surveys, adults, juveniles , and tadpoles were observed within this pool.
5.4 Nuisance Plant Species
One Cal-IPC rated “High” species, yellow-star thistle, is currently found in isolated clumps on the Management Area. A total of 13 Cal -IPC rated “Moderate” species occupy the vicinity of the Management Area, including artichoke thistle ( Cynara cardunculus ), stinkwort ( Dittrichia gravolens), black mustard (Brassica nigra), Italian ryegrass, Mediterranean grass, wild oats, ripgut brome, soft chess, Italian thistle (Carduus pycnocephalus), bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare), hyssop loosestrife (Lythrum hyssopifolia), rose clover (Trifolium hirtum), and rat-tail fescue. 312

6.0 MANAGEMENT AND MONITORING
This section presents the methods, tasks, frequency, and responsibilities for monitoring long-term biological resources onsite, together with the monitoring objective and criteria that define successful habitat preservation.
The approach to long- term management of the Management Area is to conduct annual site inspections and monitor selected characteristics to determine stability and ongoing trends of the preserved upland habitat. Annual monitoring will assess the Management Area’s condition, degree of erosion, extent of weedy species, water quality, fire hazard, and/or other aspects that may warrant management actions. While it is not anticipated that major management modifications to the Management Area will be needed, an objective of this Management Plan is to guide monitoring to identify any issues that arise, and using adaptive management, to determine what actions might be appropriate.
6.1 Adaptive Management
Adaptive management is an approach to natural resource management which incorporates changes to management practices, including corrective actions, in the context of available hard data and also from qualitative observation and/or off -site resources (i.e. , experts’ advice, published documents, etc.). Adaptive management includes those activities necessary to address the effects of climate change, fire, flood, invasive pests, encroachment, grazing effects, or other natural events, force majeure, etc.
Adaptive management and land management strategy in general is facilitated by the Land Manager since they will have access to all available data from on -site annual surveys and the historical context to recommend management strategies. While it is not anticipated that major management modifications will be needed, an objective of this Plan is to conduct monitoring to identify any issues that arise and use adaptive management to determine what actions might be appropriate.
Under the adaptive management umbrella, the Land Manager has the responsibility to implement the various management activities below; however, if the conservation values of the Management Area can be improved, then the Land Manager has the discretion to allocate resources as necessary as long as they fall within the general intention of the management strategy provided within this document. Any changes to the management strategy provided within this document will need to be approved by the Third- Party Beneficiaries of the Conservation Easement (i.e. , regulatory agencies), in consultation with the Land Manager and the CE Grantee.
Any long- term management activities that include ground surface disturbance will necessarily require consultation between the Land Manager, CE Grantee, and Third-Party Beneficiaries since it would be a prohibited activity as defined by the CE. Any ground disturbing activities will need 313
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 12
to be approved by the Regulatory Agencies and may require other local permitting or approval depending on the activity.
An all -terrain vehicle (ATV) may be used to facilitate monitoring and management of the Management Area. ATV use will be limited to existing access roads, however cross-country travel is allowed if it results in increased efficiency and efficacy of monitoring and/or management and can be done without unnecessarily damaging protected habitat or species. Unauthorized vehicle encroachment onto the site is prohibited by the CE.
6.2 Long-Term Habitat Management Activities
The management strategy recommended within this document is outlined below and is in alignment with the endowment cost analysis spreadsheet or Property Analysis Record (PAR) will be provided separately a nd provides a framework for adaptive management as implemented/facilitated by the Land Manager. Table 2 below provides a general schedule of long- term monitoring and management activities described within this Plan.
6.2.1 Biological Resources
Element A.1 Biological Monitoring
Objective: Monitor, conserve , and maintain the Management Area’s habitats for CRLF and seasonal wetlands . Collect biological monitoring data to identify and evaluate conditions onsite, create an ongoing record using consistent data points to monitor trends, and provide early identification of any problems at the site.
Objective: Ensure that habitat conditions remain suitable for the continued existence onsite for CRLF and seasonal wetlands.
Objective: Review management procedures and sampling protocols to assess whether adjustments need to be made to achieve the goal of maintaining suitable habitat for CRLF and seasonal wetlands.
Task A.1-1 – Vegetation Monitoring
Task A.1-1-1: Conduct vegetation monitoring. In Years 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, and every 5 years thereafter in perpetuity, conduct field monitoring to determine plant community types present and species composition, typically between March and May depending on flowering season.
Task A.1-1-2: Digitally link data to GIS database. Download GPS data and link to GIS database.
314
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 13
Task A.1-1-3: Analyze data. Analyze monitoring data and compare with baseline and previous years' data.
Task A.1-2 – California Red Legged Frog Presence / Absence Monitoring. There are no ponds on the Management Area; therefore, only surveys for the presence of suitable habitat will take place.
6.2.2 Vegetation Management
Element B.1 Vegetation Management
The goal of the vegetation management activities is to maintain the existing competitive advantage of grassland species over exotic invasive annual plant species. This section describes tasks involving invasive species research and annual site inspections, as well as methods to be used for vegetation management. Managed grazing is the preferred vegetation management method.
The following non- native species are found within the Management Area: yellow star thistle ( Centaurea solstitialis), artichoke thistle ( Cynara cardunculus), black mustard (Brassica spp.), filarees (Erodium spp.), and bur-clover (Medicago polymorpha). A few of these species are particularly problematic. Yellow star thistle is of special concern because it degrades forage species, depletes soil moisture and adversely affects the habitat quality of the grasslands.
Objective: Monitor, document and minimize the presence/absence of exotic / invasive species in the Management Area.
Objective: Maintain the existing competitive advantage of beneficial grassland species over exotic invasive annual plant species, including but not limited to noxious weeds, through the use of allowable management methods: managed grazing, mowing, and/or controlled herbicide application. Prescribed burns will not be allowed without the concurrence and written permission of the USFWS, CDFW and county fire marshal.
Task B.1-1: Vegetation Management
Task: B.1-1: Conduct site inspection annually to determine presence of and document invasive vegetation during late February to mid-March. Review guidance materials on what species may threaten site and how to manage for them. Conduct site inspection to determine presence and document location of invasive vegetation by filling out monitoring form, taking photos, GPS documentation and mapping.
Determine if invasive plant control actions are required. 315
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 14
Task B.1-2-1 through B.1-2-3: Use weed control chemicals or mow using hand equipment to control invasive plants (grazing is preferred method).
Task B.1-3-1: Manage vegetation annually through livestock grazing lease. Cattle grazing will occur annually with at least two cattle movements (i.e., fall and spring) and other livestock (sheep or goat) grazing will occur as needed. This tool will remove excess plant material, thatch , and non- native invasive plants from the uplands of the Bank.
Task B.1-3-2: Residual dry matter (RDM) sampling will be used within the overall Bank to assess thatch levels. Permanent upland RDM sampling locations will be established across the grassland habitat. An equal number of RDM samples will be taken across varying slope grades. RDM sampling will occur during the fall, prior to the onset of the first rains of the year.
Task B.1-3-3: Implement annual grazing on the Preserve to maximize habitat values for Covered Species.
o All grazing activities will be performed with the ac knowledgement that the primary land use is habitat for CRLF and seasonal wetlands. o The amount of rainfall received in a given year may dictate an increase or decrease in the length of grazing based on when wetlands begin drying up at the end of the spring rainy season.
o Watering and loading/unloading of livestock will be conducted in specified areas away from seasonal wetlands to minimize impacts caused by these activities.
o No supplemental feeding will be allowed due to the potential for introduction of additional exotic plant species to the Management Area. o Cattle exclusion areas will be fenced to protect establishment of the seasonal wetlands.
o Flash grazing of the cattle exclusion areas may be allowed to reduce vegetation heights. Any flash grazing must be approved by the Monitoring Biologist prior to grazing.
The type of livestock grazed and the duration of seasonal grazing may be increased or decreased as an adaptive management approach to meet the overall goal to ensure the long- term preservation of the existing and created wetlands and upland habitat values for CRLF.
Cattle will not be allowed in the newly created wetland areas for at least the first three years to ensure no damage occurs to newly created habitats. If grazing management is determined to be necessary within the sensitive established/enhanced habitats during these restricted 316
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 15
times, goats, sheep, and/or mowing will be used. Flash grazing by the goats or sheep will occur within the wetlands during only dry season months.
To evaluate progress i n maximizing wetland habitat development and attaining the vegetation management objective of maintaining the existing competitive advantage of wetland species over exotic annual plant species, the Land Manager, with the assistance, as necessary, of a specialist(s) in grazing management, will include in the annual inspection and maintenance monitoring report any recommendations for modifications to the grazing plan.
Element B.2 Sedimentation, Erosion & Offsite Stormwater Control Objective: Prevent impacts to wetlands from sedimentation and erosion.
Objective: Prevent excess stormwater discharges from offsite that would alter the site’s hydrology regime.
Task B.2-1 – Sedimentation, Erosion & Excess Offsite Stormwater Discharge Control
Task B.2-1: Inspect the site annually for signs of sedimentation, erosion, or excess stormwater control problems. Following a rainfall period > 1 inch, document any sedimentation, erosion, or excess stormwater discharge control problems on the maintenance monitoring form.
Task B.2-2: Correct sedimentation, erosion, or excess offsite stormwater discharge control problems (includes removal of accumulated sediment from stock ponds).
Management Area is stable; therefore, no erosion or offsite stormwater problems are anticipated.
Task B.2-3: Correct sedimentation, erosion, or excess offsite stormwater discharge control problems. Use materials (e.g., hay bales, straw rolls, sterile straw, shovels) to control erosion and sedimentation. Management Area is stable; therefore, no erosion or offsite stormwater problems are anticipated.
6.2.3 Site Security
The Management Area will be fenced and shall have no general public access, nor any regular public or private use. Adjacent properties are under the control of the Land Owner / Land Manager.
All maintenance visits by the Land Manager will include inspection for any evidence of vandalism.
Because the area is relatively inaccessible, vandalism is not anticipated. However, the site will be monitored for signs of excessive or uncontrolled human disturbance such as off-road vehicle use, presence of brush and litter, human foot traffic, and runoff water entering the property. Disturbance 317
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 16
will be recorded along with remedial action being taken (e.g., repair fence, gate(s), fill tire ruts to original grade, or replace signage). Research and/or other educational programs or efforts consistent with the goals of this Plan may be allowed on the Management Area as deemed appropriate by the Land Manager, however, these programs are not specifically funded or a part of this Plan.
The Land Manager will coordinate with the Alameda County Mosquito Abatement District to minimize mosquito reproduction within the Management Area. Many of the standard recommendations to minimize mosquito reproduction are not applicable; however, several of the recommended management actions, such as preventing trash on- site, are already included in this Plan.
Element C.1 Site Security
The goal of providing site security is to preclude general public access to the site to prevent damage to the habitat. The Management Area should remain free of trash and other debris.
Trash is most likely to be deposited outside the Management Area’s fences and gates along the road.
Objective: Monitor for and document the presence of unauthorized access.
Objective: Collect and remove trash, repair fencing, as needed, and rectify trespass impacts.
Task C.1-1: Site Security
Task C.1-1: Inspect site for unauthorized access and vandalism. Inspect site and document signs of encroachment on maintenance form, GPS locations, and create map showing locations.
Task C.1-2: Remove trash and debris. Fill tire ruts and fill and level soil surface where necessary. Confer with County and/or USFWS if necessary.
Task C.1-3: Dispose of trash and debris at local approved landfill.
Element C.2 Mosquito Abatement
The goal of mosquito abatement is to eliminate or minimize mosquito populations within wetland habitats.
Objective: Work with the County Mosquito Abatement District to eliminate or minimize mosquito populations in wetland habitats.
318
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 17
Task C.2-1: Inspect site in coordination with County Mosquito Abatement District staff. There are no ponds on the Management Area; therefore, no monitoring or abatement is required.
Element C.3 Fencing, Gates, Locks, and Signs
The goal of this element is to maintain fencing to preserve site integrity, preclude general public access, prevent damage to habitat and associated biota, and to facilitate the ongoing management of the Management Area. Existing fencing within the Management Area can be found within Attachment 1, Figure 10. Additional fencing may be proposed.
Inspect fencing to prevent unauthorized access and ensure it is maintained in good condition. Check to see that there is proper tension in the wire or fencing parts, the wire or metal grill work is not broken, and appropriate post alignment and stability are maintained.
If localized rotational or controlled grazing is necessary to protect sensitive habitats, cross fencing following the same construction specifications may be added. Replace existing fencing site wide when it is no longer functional; assume that all wire fencing and posts will need to be replaced every 30 years.
Signs identifying the Management Area as an open space preserve are located at vehicle access points and at appropriate intervals along the preserve boundary/property line.
Replace signs if they are found to be damaged, illegible, or if the contact information needs to be updated. Replace locks on an as-needed basis to maintain site integrity.
Objective: Maintain fences, gates, and signs to preve nt casual trespass, allow necessary access, and facilitate management.
Task C.3-1: Maintain Fencing, Gates, Locks and Signs
Task C.3- 1: Inspect fenc ing, gates, locks, and signs for damage or need for maintenance and document observations on inspection sheet. GPS locations and create map showing locations of facilities needing repair or replacement.
Task C. 3-2: Grazing lease holder to maintain fence and gates (proper tension, attachments to posts, broken wire, etc.) and prepare brief annual summary letter report.
Task C.3-3-1: Replace worn fence with 30-year gauge metal fencing. Assumes 5- strand barbed wire on metal posts with 10- foot centers with end post braces for tension support.
Task C.3-3-2: Replace fences, gates, locks, signs on a 30- year re-occurring basis.
Fences will generally be 5 -strand barbwire fencing with metal posts 10- foot on 319

June 2022 18
center and line-posts generally every 100 feet. Bracing will be welded steel posts of adequate span to withs tand wire tension (i.e. “H” braces of at least 8 feet in length). Ideally, wildlife friendly fencing will be used, where the bottom and top strand are smooth and the bottom strand is set no less than 16 inches off the ground.
Gates will be at least 12-feet wide welded steel panel gates.
Task C.3-4: Replace broken or malfunctioning locks with heavy duty brass locks.
Task C.3-5: Replace conservation easement signage.
6.2.4 Reporting and Administration
Element D.1 Annual Accounting and Management Report
Objective: Provide annual report on all management tasks conducted and general site conditions to third-party beneficiaries (USFWS, CDFW and RWQCB) of the Conservation Easement and GSLC.
Task D.1: Prepare Annual Accounting and Management Report:
Task D.1-1: Provide an accounting of all funds expended in the management of the Property during the previous year. Prepare accounting of Endowment Fund expenditures for the previous year.
Task D.1-2: Provide a general summary description of the status of the Management Area. Describe status of the Management Area, both positives and negatives, with references to accounting, biological , and management report sections of the accounting and management report.

Task D.1-6: Describe management actions to be undertaken in the coming year.
Review management procedures, sampling protocols to assess whether adjustments need to be made to maintain and preserve habitat.
6.2.5 Schedule
A schedule outlining the proposed frequency of routine monitoring and maintenance procedures for long- term management of the Management Area is shown in Table 2. Monitoring and maintenance activities will start as soon as the Conservation Easement is recor ded. The interim management period is a minimum of three years from the date the Conservation Easement is recorded (the land is protected) and full funding of the Endowment (the Endowment is scheduled to be fully funded within 30 days of recordation of the Conservation Easement). After the Endowment Fund has been fully funded for three years, routine monitoring and maintenance activities will be funded by the interest generated by the Endowment Fund.

7.0 RIGHT OF ACCESS
The agencies that are members of the Regulatory Agencies (USFWS, CDFW) are defined as the Third-Party Beneficiaries of the CE. All Third -Party Beneficiaries have the right of access to the Management Area and the right to enforce all of the obligations of Grantor and Grantee as provided by the terms and conditions of the CE.
8.0 TRANSFER, REPLACEMENT, AND AMMENDMENTS
8.1 Transfer
Any subsequent transfer of responsibilities under this long- term management plan to a different Land Manager shall be requested by the Land Manager in writing to the Regulatory Agencies, shall require written approval by the Regulatory Agencies, and shall be incorporated into this Plan by amendment. Any subsequent Property Owner assumes land manager responsibilities described in this Plan and as required in the CE, unless otherwise amended in writing by the Regulatory Agencies.
8.2 Replacement
If the Land Manager fails to implement the tasks described in this Plan and is notified of such failure in writing by any of the Regulatory Agencies, the Land Manager shall have 90 days to cure such failure. If failure is not cured within 90 days, the Land Manager may request a meeting with the Regulatory Agencies to resolve the failure. Such meeting shall occur within 30 days or a longer period if approved by the Regulatory Agencies. Based on the outcome of the meeting, or if no meeting is requested, the Regulatory Agencies may request the replacement of the designated Land Manager. If the Land Manager fails to designate a replacement, then such public or private land or resource management organization acceptable to and as directed by the Regulatory Agencies may enter onto the Management Area in order to fulfill the purposes of this Plan.
8.3 Amendments
The Property Owner, Land Manager, and Regulatory Agencies may meet and confer from time to time, upon the request of any one of them, to revise this Plan to better meet management objectives and to ensure the conservation values of the Management Area. Any proposed changes to this Plan shall be discussed with the Regulatory Agencies and the Land Manager. Any proposed changes will be designed with input from all parties . Amendments to this Plan shall be approved by the Regulatory Agencies in writing; Plan amendments shall be required management components and shall be implemented by the Land Manager.
If the CDFW or USFWS determine, in writing, that continued implementation of this Plan would jeopardize the continued existence of state or federally listed species, any written amendment to 323
Croak Road Management Area Long Term Resource Management Plan
June 2022 22
this Plan determined by either the CDFW or USFWS as necessary to avoid jeopardy, shall be a required management component and shall be implemented by the Land Manager.
9.0 FUNDING AND TASK PRIORITIZATION
9.1 Funding
The costs associated with management and monitoring activities of the Management Area have been identified using a PAR. The PAR provides a description of tasks and identifies the anticipated costs associated with each task. A copy of the draft PAR has been included as a separate Document.
These costs include estimates of time and funding needed to conduct the basic monitoring site visits and reporting, weed mowing, trash removal, fence repair, and a prorated calculation of funding needed to fully replace the fences ever 30 years. A 3.5 percent capitalization rate was used to derive the total amount required to be invested in order to fund anticipated items.
The first-three years post recordation of the CE will be funded by a non- recurring account equal to three years of annual management and monitoring as estimated in the PAR. This three -year account will delay withdrawing funds from the endowment account, allowing time for the interest earned to sufficiently mature before invoicing against it.
Contingency funding has been provided within the PAR to total 10 percent of the anticipated annual estimated cost. Since contingency funding will only be needed when there is a management need that is not met by an individually funded line item of the PAR ; the total will be allowed to compound over time. For example, the funding may be used to repair a massive erosional landslide after a particularly bad storm event.

6. Grantee’s R emedies.
(a) CDFW, as a third party beneficiary of this Conservation Easement, shall have the same rights and remedies as Grantee under this Section 6. If Grantee determines that a violation of the terms of this Conservation Easement has occurred or is threatened, Grantee shall give written notice to Grantor of such violation and demand in writing the cure of such violation (“Notice of Violation”). At the time of giving any such notice, Grantee shall give a copy of the notice to CDFW (or, if CDFW gives a No tice of Violation it shall also give a copy of the notice to Grantee).

Without limiting the liability of Grantor, Grantee may apply any damages recovered to the cost of undertaking any corrective action on the Easement Area. (c) If Grantee, in its sole discretion, determines that circumstances r equire immediate action to prevent or mitigate injury to the Conservation Values of the Easement Area, Grantee may pursue its remedies under this Conservation Easement without prior notice to Grantor or without waiting for the period provided for cure to expire. Grantee’ s rights under this section apply equally to actual or threatened violations of the terms of this Conservation Easement.
(d) Grantor agrees that Grantee’s remedies at law for any violation of the terms of this Conservation Easement are inadequate and that Grantee shall be entitled to the injunctive relief described in this section, both prohibitive and mandatory, in addition to such other relief to which Grantee may be entitled, including specific performance of the terms of this Conservation Easement, without the necessity of proving either actual damages or the 344

Enforcement of the terms of this Conservation Easement by Grantee or CDFW shall be at the discretion of the enforcing party, and any forbearance by Grantee or CDFW to exercise its rights under this Conservation Easement in the event of any breach of any term of this Conservation Easement shall not be deemed or construed to be a waiver by Grantee or CDFW of such term or of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term of this Conservation Easement or of any rights of Grantee or CDFW under this Conservation Easement. No delay or omission by Grantee or CDFW in the exercise of any right or remedy shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver.
9. Acts Beyond Grantor's Cont
rol. Nothing contained in this Conservation
Easement shall be construed to entitle Grantee or CDFW to bring any action against Grantor for any injury to or change in the Easement Area resulting from (i) any natural cause beyond Grantor's control, including, without limitation, fire not caused by Grantor, flood, storm, and earth movement, or any prudent action taken by Grantor under emergency conditions to prevent, abate, or mitigate significant injury to the Easement Area resulting from such causes; or (ii) acts by Grantee or its employees or CDFW or its employees.

STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL
Agenda Item 4.9
DATE: July 19, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Linda Smith, City Manager
SUBJECT: Summary Vacation of Unused Right-of-Way on Campus Drive Prepared by: Kan Xu, Senior Civil Engineer
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will consider approving a summary vacation of unused right-of-way on Campus Drive for the Dublin Transit Center Parking Garage project STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution Summarily Vacating Unused Right-of-Way on Campus Drive.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no impact on the General Fund. The costs associated with the summary vacation will be paid for by Alameda County.
DESCRIPTION:
The County of Alameda is requesting a Summary Vacation of 1,906 square feet of Campus Drive right-of-way to facilitate the Dublin Transit Center Parking Garage project (Project), located on the vacant lot at the southwest corner of Campus Drive and Martinelli Way, and to straighten out the roadway alignment for the Campus Drive extension. The subject right-of-way was previously dedicated to the City of Dublin with Parcel Map 7892, recorded on April 14, 2005, however no improvements were constructed at the time of dedication and this portion of Campus Drive has remained closed to vehicular traffic and public access. A portion of Campus Drive located south of the Project site was improved with the construction of the BART parking garage, between Altamirano Avenue and the existing fence at the north end of the BART parking garage.
Alameda County is responsible for the construction of improvements along the Project frontage of Campus Drive, which will extend Campus Drive from its current terminus to Martinelli Way. After review of preliminary roadway alignment and frontage improvement plans for the Campus Drive 374
extension, it was determined that the subject right-of-way was not required, as the roadway will be shifted slightly to the east to remove any curves in the alignment. The eastward shift will include an associated street right-of-way dedication of 1,386 square feet, from Alameda County Surplus Property Authority, which will occur later (Attachment 4).
Pursuant to Streets and Highways Code Section 8331, the City Council may summarily vacate street right-of-way if:
a. For a period of five consecutive years, the street or highway has been impassable for vehicular traffic; and
b. No public money was expended for maintenance on the street during such period.
The subject right-of-way is currently unimproved. For more than five consecutive years preceding its proposed vacation, the subject right-of-way has been impassable to traffic and no public money was expended for its maintenance.
Pursuant to Streets and Highways Code Section 8334.5, a street may not be summarily vacated if there are in place any public utility facilities that are in use and would be affected by the vacation.
Staff contacted all public utility agencies and companies which may have existing facilities within the area to be vacated or which may have plans to locate facilities within the area to be vacated.
No utility agencies or companies objected to the proposed street vacation.
General Plan Consistency
The Streets and Highways Code requires that, if the proposed vacation of a street or public service easement is within an area for which a general plan is adopted, the City Council should consider the General Plan prior to vacating the easement. The Planning Commission is also required to consider the proposal and report to City Council as to its conformity with the General Plan.
However, many relinquishments and acquisitions of real property, such as the vacation of this subject right-of-way, are of such minor nature that Planning Commission review and their report to the City Council as to their General Plan consistency serves no purpose. Government Code Section 65402 permits the City Council to exempt, by resolution or ordinance, the following kinds of proposed dispositions and acquisitions of real property from the requirement that Planning Commission report to the City Council as to their General Plan consistency, provided they are of a minor nature:
1. The disposition of the remainder of a large parcel which was acquired and used in part for street purposes
2. Acquisitions, dispositions, or abandonments for street widening
3. Street alignment projects
On July 19, 2016, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 125-16 Exempting Certain Minor Dispositions and Acquisitions of Real Property or Interests in Real Property from Required Report to the City Council by the Planning Commission as to their General Plan Consistency.
The proposed vacation of this subject right-of-way is minor in nature and for a street alignment 375
purpose, and therefore this action is exempt from the requirement that the Planning Commission report to the City Council as to the General Plan conformity.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
This vacation is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities.
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
None.
NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH:
The City Council Agenda was posted.
