Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
Franklin Canyon RV Resort Project
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
June 28, 2021
Public Resources Code Section 21081.6 requires the implementation of mitigation measures identified in environmental review documents prepared in accordance with CEQA after a project is approved. Thus, this Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) has been prepared to ensure compliance with the adopted mitigation measures for the Franklin Canyon RV Resort Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration.
The City of Hercules is the agency responsible for implementation of the mitigation measures identified in the Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration. This MMRP provides the City with a convenient mechanism for quickly reviewing all the mitigation measures including the ability to focus on select information such as timing. The MMRP identifies the timeframe in which the required mitigation measure must be monitored and the monitoring/enforcement agency.

Mitigation Measure BIO-2: Pre-Construction Survey for Special-Status Plants (Mt. Diablo Fairy Lantern, Western Leatherwood, Diablo Helianthella, and Contra Costa Goldfields). To determine presence or absence of special-status plant species within the project site, a qualified botanist shall conduct focused surveys according to CDFW guidelines prior to the onset of construction activities. • A comprehensive, site-wide survey will be conducted during April to coincide with the peak blooming periods of all special-status plant species that may be present. Following the completion of the surveys, a survey results report shall be prepared and provided to the City. This report shall be a condition of project approval and shall include, but shall not be limited to, the following: (1) a description of the survey methodology; (2) a discussion of the survey results; and (3) a map showing the survey area and the location of any special-status plants encountered. If no rare plants are found, then no further mitigation would be required. • If rare plant(s) is (are) found during the survey, the number of individuals present shall be documented, and the limits of the population shall be marked with flagging and avoided by construction personnel. If the project cannot be redesigned to avoid the species or the species may be adversely impacted indirectly, the applicant shall notify CDFW and/or USFWS (depending on protection status) to discuss avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures as appropriate for each species population, including measures to be taken and protocols to be followed. • CDFW and/or USFWS may require the preparation and implementation of a mitigation plan that details avoidance, preservation, and/or compensation for the loss of individual special-status plant species. Mitigation may include the purchase of mitigation bank credits, preserving and enhancing existing onsite populations, creation of off-site populations through seed collection and/or transplantation and monitoring these populations to ensure their successful establishment, and/or preserving occupied habitat off-site in perpetuity.
During the month of April prior to initiation of construction.

Mitigation Measure BIO-3: Avoid Use of Pesticides Outside Developed Areas. To avoid mortality of western bumblebees within the project site, pesticide use outside of the developed areas of the project site shall be avoided (i.e., avoiding Rodeo Creek corridor, coast live oak woodland and scrub, and grassland; reference Appendix B).
After construction, during operation
Community Development Department
Mitigation Measure BIO-4: Pre-Construction Survey for Special-Status Herptile Species (California Red-Legged Frog, Alameda Whipsnake, Western Pond Turtle). Due to the riparian habitat along Rodeo Creek and the coast live oak woodland and scrub habitat within the project site, the project site contains dispersal habitat for special-status herptile species (amphibians and reptiles), especially following precipitation for California red-legged frog and western pond turtle. To avoid impacting these species, the following measures shall be followed:
• Within 3-5 days prior to initiating work at the project site (including but not limited to mobilization and staging, clearing, grubbing, vegetation removal, fence installation, demolition, and grading), a qualified biologist shall perform a pre-construction survey for CRLF, Alameda whipsnake, and WPT individuals within the boundaries of the project site plus a 500-foot buffer zone downstream of the project site along Rodeo Creek where access permission is granted from the landowner. To communicate due diligence, any non-access issues will be clearly communicated in report notes and provided to the client, CDFW, and/or USFWS if requested. • If CRLF or Alameda whipsnake are found during the pre-construction survey, the qualified biologist shall immediately inform the construction manager that work should not be initiated until they have dispersed from the work area. The qualified biologist shall then consult with USFWS and CDFW immediately and provide a short description of observations, including a count of individuals and the life stage(s), condition at the site, and other aquatic species observed (if applicable). Unless explicitly authorized by these agencies, CRLF and Alameda whipsnake shall not be relocated if encountered in the project site. If the animals do not disperse of their own volition, the qualified biologist shall monitor the frog or snake and consult with CDFW to determine the appropriate course of action. • In the event WPT are found in the project area during pre-construction surveys, it shall be left alone to move out of the area on its own. If it does not move on its own, the qualified biologist shall notify CDFW and relocate the individuals(s) to a reach of Rodeo Creek at least 250 feet away from the project location. Relocation areas shall be of suitable habitat, on shallow banks with slow moving water and shall be far enough away so as not to be affected by project activities. • The applicant shall not resume project activities until CDFW and USFWS have provided written approval of the proposed avoidance measures or actions. • Work shall be avoided if precipitation (defined as the National Weather Service 24-hour weather forecast indicating a 40 percent chance or higher of precipitation of at least 0.10 inch of precipitation) is forecasted or has been recorded at the project site within a 24-hour window. An NWS forecast may be utilized to plan project work accordingly.
Within 3-5 days prior to initiation of construction.

Mitigation Measure BIO-5: Pre-Construction Survey for San Francisco Dusky-Footed Woodrat. Within 30 days prior to the start of construction activities, a qualified biologist shall map all San Francisco dusky-footed woodrat houses within a 25-foot buffer around the project footprint. Environmentally sensitive habitat fencing shall be placed to protect the houses with a minimum 25-foot buffer. If a 25-foot buffer is not feasible, a smaller buffer may be allowable based on advice from a qualified biologist with knowledge of woodrat ecology and behavior. Removal and/or translocation of woodrat houses is not required as the project will not be impacting riparian habitat where woodrat houses have been observed to occur.
Within 30 days prior to initiation of construction.

Mitigation Measure BIO-6: Pre-Construction Survey for Cooper’s Hawk, Golden Eagle, Ferruginous Hawk, Northern Harrier, White-Tailed Kite, Loggerhead Shrike, and Other Nesting Birds. To avoid impacts to special-status and other nesting birds and violation of state and federal laws pertaining to birds, all construction-related activities (including but not limited to mobilization and staging, clearing, grubbing, vegetation removal, fence installation, demolition, and grading) should occur outside the avian nesting season (that is, prior to February 1 or after September 15). If construction and construction noise occurs within the avian nesting season (from February 1 to September 15), all suitable habitats located within the project’s area of disturbance including staging and storage areas plus a 250-foot (passerines) and 1,000-foot (raptor nests) buffer around these areas shall be thoroughly surveyed, as feasible, for the presence of active nests by a qualified biologist no more than five days before commencement of any site disturbance activities and equipment mobilization. If project activities are delayed by more than five days, an additional nesting bird survey shall be performed. A nest is considered active if: a bird is building a nest, sitting on a nest, a nest has eggs or chicks in it, or adults are observed carrying food to the nest. The results of the surveys shall be documented.
If pre-construction nesting bird surveys result in the location of active nests, no site disturbance and mobilization of heavy equipment (including but not limited to equipment staging, fence installation, clearing, grubbing, vegetation removal, fence installation, demolition, and grading) shall take place within 250 feet of non-raptor nests and 1,000 feet of raptor nests, or as determined by a qualified biologist in consultation with the CDFW, as appropriate, until the chicks have fledged. Monitoring shall be required to ensure compliance with relevant California Fish and Game Code requirements. Monitoring dates and findings shall be documented.
Mitigation Measure BIO-7: Pre-Construction Survey for Bat Roosts. Within 14 days before the start of construction-related activities (including but not limited to mobilization and staging, clearing, grubbing, tree removal, vegetation removal, fence installation, demolition, and grading), a survey for tree cavities suitable for roosting bats will be conducted within the project site, including a 50-foot buffer, as feasible. There should also be a five-day window for consultation with CDFW prior to the start of construction within the 14-day period. If suitable tree cavities are found, an emergence survey of the cavities will be conducted by a qualified biologist for colony bat roosts before the onset of construction-related activities. If an occupied maternity or colony roost is detected, CDFW shall be consulted to determine appropriate measures, such as bat exclusion methods, if the roost cannot be avoided. The results of the surveys shall be documented.
Before February 1 or after September 15 prior to initiation of construction.

Mitigation Measure BIO-10: Protect Sensitive Habitat.
• Travel and parking of vehicles and equipment will be limited to pavement, existing roads, and previously disturbed areas. Ground disturbance and vegetation removal will not exceed the minimum amount necessary to complete work at the site. • Temporary work areas will be restored with respect to pre-existing contours and conditions upon completion of work. Restoration work including re-vegetation and soil stabilization will be evaluated upon completion of work and performed as needed. • The potential for adverse effects to water quality in aquatic habitat within the project site will be avoided by implementing Best Management Practices (BMPs), and the project will require a Stormwater Pollution and Prevention Plan (SWPPP) for construction. These BMPs will be used to minimize any erosion or other sources of water pollution. The following BMPs are suggested:
a) Store, handle, and dispose of construction materials and wastes properly to prevent their contact with stormwater. b) Control and prevent the discharge of all potential pollutants, including solid wastes, paints, concrete, petroleum products, chemicals, wash water or sediment and non-stormwater discharges to storm drains and water courses. c) Avoid cleaning, fueling, or maintaining vehicles on site, except in a designated area in which run-off is contained and treated. d) Perform clearing and earth moving activities during dry weather to the maximum extent practical. e) Delineate clearing limits, easements, setbacks, sensitive or critical areas, buffer zones, trees, and discharge course with field markers. f) Remove spoils promptly and avoid stockpiling fill materials when rain is forecast. If rain threatens, stockpiled soils and other materials shall be covered with a tarp or other waterproof material. g) Limit construction access routes and stabilize designated access points. h) Deposit trash and construction related solid wastes into a covered receptacle to prevent contamination and dispersal by wind. i) Maintain sanitary facilities on the project site at all times. j) Take measures to collect or clean any accumulation or deposit of dirt, mud, sand, rocks, gravel, or debris on the surface of any street, alley, or public place or in public storm drain systems. The removal of aforesaid shall be done by street sweeping or hand sweeping. Water shall not be used to wash sediments into public or private drainage facilities. k) Cease all grading work immediately in the event of rain. l) Prepare and implement an erosion control plan during the wet season (September 15 through April 15). The following measures are suggested to be included in the plan:
• During the rainy season, the project site shall be maintained to minimize sediment-laden run-off to any storm drainage system, including existing drainage swales and water courses. • Inlet protection shall be installed to prevent sediment from entering the storm drain system where applicable. • Weed and net/filament free straw rolls shall be placed at the toe of barren slopes and along the down slope perimeter of the project site to capture sediment in storm runoff. • Develop a hazardous spill plan prior to construction. The plan will describe what actions will be taken in the event of a spill. The plan will also incorporate preventative measures to be implemented, such as vehicle and equipment staging, cleaning, maintenance, and refueling; and contaminant (including fuel) management and storage. In the event of a contaminant spill, work at the site will immediately cease until the contractor has contained and mitigated the spill. The contractor will immediately prevent further contamination and notify appropriate authorities and mitigate damage as appropriate. Adequate spill containment materials, such as oil diapers and hydrocarbon cleanup kits, shall be available on site at all times. Containers for storage, transportation, and disposal of contaminated absorbent materials will be provided at the project site. • A SWPPP that complies with the statewide General Permit administered by the State Water Board for the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System will be developed and implemented to protect the water quality of aquatic resources that lie in or adjacent to the proposed project area. Appropriate erosion and sediment control and non-sediment pollution control (i.e., sources of pollution generated by construction equipment and material) BMPs will be prescribed in the SWPPP, and erosion and sediment control material included in the SWPPP will be certified as weed-free. • After construction is completed, a final cleanup will include removal of all stakes, temporary fencing, flagging, and other refuse generated by construction.

Mitigation Measure BIO-11: General Biological Resource Protections During Project Construction. • Designation of Work Area. Prior to project activities, a qualified biologist will clearly delineate any vegetation and/or habitat areas to be avoided near planned project work. • Construction Site Sanitation. Food items may attract wildlife onto the construction site, which will expose them to construction-related hazards. The construction site shall be maintained in a clean condition. All trash (e.g., food scraps, cans, bottles, containers, wrappers, and other discarded items) will be placed in closed containers and properly disposed of. • Wildlife Entrapment. The contractor shall avoid the use of monofilament netting, including its use in temporary and permanent erosion control materials. All holes greater than one-foot deep must be covered overnight to prevent the entrapment of wildlife. Where holes or trenches cannot be sealed, escape ramps that are no greater than 30 percent slope will be positioned such that entrapped wildlife will be able to escape. The escape ramps should be at least one-foot wide and covered/fitted with a material that provides traction. • Species Discovery. If an animal is found at the work site and is believed to be a protected species, work must halt and the project biologist shall be contacted for guidance. Care must be taken not to harm or harass the species. No wildlife species shall be handled and/or removed from the project site by anyone except a qualified biologist. • Wildlife Exclusion Fencing. Prior to the implementation of project activities, a qualified biologist shall install wildlife exclusion fencing effective at preventing and special-status wildlife species from entering the project area. The exclusion fencing shall be maintained daily for the duration of project construction by construction personnel who have completed the employee education program outlined in Mitigation Measure BIO-1.

CULTURAL RESOURCES
Mitigation Measure CUL‐1: Conduct Subsurface Archaeological Investigation. The applicant shall retain a qualified professional archaeologist or archaeological firm to conduct a series of subsurface investigations in the proposed area of disturbance, where the project has the potential of encountering subsurface resources, or would come within two vertical feet of encountering subsurface resources, i.e. any excavation into or close to the existing ground level of the project area where excavation or over excavation may disturb subsurface archaeological resources. The methodology of the subsurface investigation shall be determined by the investigating archaeologist and will use archaeological augering, shovel test pits, or a combination of the two. The investigations shall be used to determine if archaeological resources are present in areas where native soils could be encountered and the edges and depths of archaeological resources. No more than the minimum level of physical disturbance into a cultural resource shall be permitted, to ensure the integrity of the resource is retained, while being able to definitively establish the presence of a cultural resource. Investigation to depths beyond the maximum depth of disturbance plus a two-foot buffer shall not be required, as cultural resources present below that horizon would be protected from construction activity. The archaeologist/firm shall write a report of their findings, documenting if the proposed project would impact archaeological resources based on the depth and features identified by the subsurface research. In the event that the area of disturbance changes to include areas not investigated by this method, additional investigation shall be required using the criteria contained in this mitigation measure.
Prior to issuance of grading permits.
Community Development Department
Mitigation Measure CUL‐2: Avoid Archaeological Resources. After the archaeological investigations are complete, an avoidance strategy shall be determined in consultation with both the applicant, the City, and a qualified professional archaeologist or archaeological firm. The avoidance strategy shall ensure that proposed ground-disturbing activities shall either avoid the archaeological resource entirely by ensuring that either a ten-foot minimum buffer surrounds the resource in which no ground moving activity shall be permitted or have at least two feet of clearance between the depth of the excavation, and the depth of the resource, or both. Fill may be used to raise the ground height to a point where there will be two feet between the excavation and the resource. Excavation shall not be permitted if there is the possibility of excavation being closer than either two feet vertically or ten feet horizontally to the edges/depth of the resource. An archaeologist shall map and stake out the edge of known and newly discovered resources to ensure construction workers know where sensitive locations are.
Prior to issuance of grading permits.
Community Development Department
Mitigation Measure CUL‐3: Conduct Archaeological Monitoring. The applicant shall retain a qualified professional archaeologist or archaeological firm to conduct archaeological monitoring during project construction within 50 feet of a previously known or newly identified archaeological resource during project construction. In the event archaeological resources are unearthed during ground-disturbing activities, all ground-disturbing activities within 50 feet of the find shall be halted so that the find can be evaluated and the qualified archaeologist can determine the appropriate action, which may include development of a treatment plan. In the event that the construction workers discover archaeological resources determined to be prehistoric, Native American tribes/individuals shall be contacted and consulted, and Native American construction monitoring shall be initiated. A monitoring report will be written detailing all archaeological finds and submitted to the City and the NWIC.

The Plan shall include the following measures as applicable:
a) Throughout the construction process, ground disturbance shall be minimized, and existing vegetation shall be retained to the extent possible to reduce soil erosion. All construction and grading activities, including short-term needs (equipment staging areas, storage areas and field office locations) shall minimize the amount of land area disturbed. Whenever possible, existing disturbed areas shall be used for such purposes. b) All drainage ways, wetland areas, and creek channels shall be protected from silt and sediment in storm runoff using appropriate Best Management Practices (BMPs) such as silt fences, diversion berms, and check dams. Fill slopes shall be stabilized and covered when appropriate. All exposed surface areas shall be mulched and reseeded. All cut and fill slopes shall be protected with hay mulch and/or erosion control blankets, as appropriate. c) All erosion control measures shall be installed according to the approved plans prior to the onset of the rainy season but no later than October 15. Erosion control measures shall remain in place until the end of the rainy season but may not be removed before April 15. The applicant shall be responsible for notifying construction contractors about erosion control requirements. d) Example design standards for erosion and sediment control include, but are not limited to, the following: avoiding disturbance in especially erodible areas; minimizing disturbance on slopes exceeding 30 percent; using berms, swales, ditches, vegetative filter strips, and catch basins to prevent the escape of sediment from the site; conducting development in increments; and planting bare soils to restore vegetative cover. e) The applicant shall also develop an inspection program to evaluate if there is any significant onsite erosion as a result of rainfall. If there were problem areas at the site, recommendations will be made to improve methods to manage onsite erosion, subject to review and approval by the City.
