GENERAL EARTHWORK GRADING GUIDELINES
Proposed Single-Family Residential Developments
Catavina East Project
Frank Sinatra Drive and Portola Avenue
Palm Desert, Riverside County, California
Project No. 4186-CR
668

GENERAL GRADING GUIDELINES APPENDIX B
Catavina East Project Page B-1
Palm Desert, Riverside County, California Project No. 4186-CR

GENERAL GRADING GUIDELINES
Guidelines presented herein are intended to address general construction procedures for earthwork construction. Specific situations and conditions often arise which cannot reasonably be discussed in general guidelines, when anticipated these are discussed in the text of the report. Often unanticipated conditions are encountered which may necessitate modification or changes to these guidelines. It is our hope that these will assist the contractor to more efficiently complete the project by providing a reasonable understanding of the procedures that would be expected during earthwork and the testing and observation used to evaluate those procedures.

General
Grading should be performed to at least the minimum requirements of governing agencies, Chapters 18 and 33 of the Uniform Building Code, CBC (2022) and the guidelines presented below.

Preconstruction Meeting
A preconstruction meeting should be held prior to site earthwork. Any questions the contractor has regarding our recommendations, general site conditions, apparent discrepancies between reported and actual conditions and/or differences in procedures the contractor intends to use should be brought up at that meeting. The contractor (including the main onsite representative) should review our report and these guidelines in advance of the meeting. Any comments the contractor may have regarding these guidelines should be brought up at that meeting.

Grading Observation and Testing

1. Observation of the fill placement should be provided by our representative during grading.

Verbal communication during the course of each day will be used to inform the contractor of test results. The contractor should receive a copy of the "Daily Field Report" indicating results of field density tests that day. If our representative does not provide the contractor with these reports, our office should be notified.

2. Testing and observation procedures are, by their nature, specific to the work or area observed and location of the tests taken, variability may occur in other locations. The contractor is responsible for the uniformity of the grading operations; our observations and test results are intended to evaluate the contractor’s overall level of efforts during grading. The contractor’s personnel are the only individuals participating in all aspects of site work. Compaction testing and observation should not be considered as relieving the contractor’s responsibility to properly compact the fill.

3. Cleanouts, processed ground to receive fill, key excavations, and subdrains should be observed by our representative prior to placing any fill. It will be the contractor's responsibility to notify our representative or office when such areas are ready for observation. 669

GENERAL GRADING GUIDELINES APPENDIX B
Catavina East Project Page B-2
Palm Desert, Riverside County, California Project No. 4186-CR

4. Density tests may be done on the surface material to receive fill, as considered warranted by this firm.

5. In general, density tests would be made at maximum intervals of two feet of fill height, or every 1,000 cubic yards of fill placed. Criteria will vary depending on soil conditions and size of the fill.

More frequent testing may be performed. In any case, an adequate number of field density tests should be made to evaluate the required compaction and moisture content is generally being obtained.

6. Laboratory testing to support field test procedures will be performed, as considered warranted, based on conditions encountered (e.g. change of material sources, types, etc.) Every effort will be made to process samples in the laboratory as quickly as possible and in progress construction projects are our first priority. However, laboratory workloads may cause delays and some soils may require a minimum of 48 to 72 hours to complete test procedures. Whenever possible, our representative(s) should be informed in advance of operational changes that might result in different source areas for materials.

7. Procedures for testing of fill slopes are as follows:
a) Density tests should be taken periodically during grading on the flat surface of the fill, three to five feet horizontally from the face of the slope. b) If a method other than over building and cutting back to the compacted core is to be employed, slope compaction testing during construction should include testing the outer six inches to three feet in the slope face to determine if the required compaction is being achieved.

8. Finish grade testing of slopes and pad surfaces should be performed after construction is complete.

Site Clearing

1. All vegetation, and other deleterious materials, should be removed from the site. If material is not immediately removed from the site it should be stockpiled in a designated area(s) well outside of all current work areas and delineated with flagging or other means. Site clearing should be performed in advance of any grading in a specific area.

2. Efforts should be made by the contractor to remove all organic or other deleterious material from the fill, as even the most diligent efforts may result in the incorporation of some materials.

This is especially important when grading is occurring near the natural grade. All equipment operators should be aware of these efforts. Laborers may be required as root pickers.

3. Nonorganic debris or concrete may be placed in deeper fill areas provided the procedures used are observed and found acceptable by our representative. 670

GENERAL GRADING GUIDELINES APPENDIX B
Catavina East Project Page B-3
Palm Desert, Riverside County, California Project No. 4186-CR Treatment of Existing Ground

1. Following site clearing, all surficial deposits of alluvium and colluvium as well as weathered or creep effected bedrock, should be removed unless otherwise specifically indicated in the text of this report.

2. In some cases, removal may be recommended to a specified depth (e.g. flat sites where partial alluvial removals may be sufficient). The contractor should not exceed these depths unless directed otherwise by our representative.

3. Groundwater existing in alluvial areas may make excavation difficult. Deeper removals than indicated in the text of the report may be necessary due to saturation during winter months.

4. Subsequent to removals, the natural ground should be processed to a depth of six inches, moistened to near optimum moisture conditions and compacted to fill standards.

5. Exploratory backhoe or dozer trenches still remaining after site removal should be excavated and filled with compacted fill if they can be located.

Fill Placement

1. Unless otherwise indicated, all site soil and bedrock may be reused for compacted fill; however, some special processing or handling may be required (see text of report).

2. Material used in the compacting process should be evenly spread, moisture conditioned, processed, and compacted in thin lifts six (6) to eight (8) inches in compacted thickness to obtain a uniformly dense layer. The fill should be placed and compacted on a nearly horizontal plane, unless otherwise found acceptable by our representative.

3. If the moisture content or relative density varies from that recommended by this firm, the contractor should rework the fill until it is in accordance with the following:
a) The moisture content of the fill should be at or above optimum moisture. Moisture should be evenly distributed without wet and dry pockets. Pre-watering of cut or removal areas should be considered in addition to watering during fill placement, particularly in clay or dry surficial soils. The ability of the contractor to obtain the proper moisture content will control production rates.
b) Each six-inch layer should be compacted to at least 90 percent of the maximum dry density in compliance with the testing method specified by the controlling governmental agency. In most cases, the testing method is ASTM Test Designation D 1557.

4. Rock fragments less than eight inches in diameter may be utilized in the fill, provided:
a) They are not placed in concentrated pockets;
b) There is a sufficient percentage of fine-grained material to surround the rocks; c) The distribution of the rocks is observed by, and acceptable to, our representative. 671

GENERAL GRADING GUIDELINES APPENDIX B
Catavina East Project Page B-4
Palm Desert, Riverside County, California Project No. 4186-CR

5. Rocks exceeding eight (8) inches in diameter should be taken off site, broken into smaller fragments, or placed in accordance with recommendations of this firm in areas designated suitable for rock disposal. On projects where significant large quantities of oversized materials are anticipated, alternate guidelines for placement may be included. If significant oversize materials are encountered during construction, these guidelines should be requested.

6. In clay soil, dry or large chunks or blocks are common. If in excess of eight (8) inches minimum dimension, then they are considered as oversized. Sheepsfoot compactors or other suitable methods should be used to break up blocks. When dry, they should be moisture conditioned to provide a uniform condition with the surrounding fill.

Slope Construction

1. The contractor should obtain a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent out to the finished slope face of fill slopes. This may be achieved by either overbuilding the slope and cutting back to the compacted core, or by direct compaction of the slope face with suitable equipment.

2. Slopes trimmed to the compacted core should be overbuilt by at least three (3) feet with compaction efforts out to the edge of the false slope. Failure to properly compact the outer edge results in trimming not exposing the compacted core and additional compaction after trimming may be necessary.

3. If fill slopes are built "at grade" using direct compaction methods, then the slope construction should be performed so that a constant gradient is maintained throughout construction. Soil should not be "spilled" over the slope face nor should slopes be "pushed out" to obtain grades.

Compaction equipment should compact each lift along the immediate top of slope. Slopes should be back rolled or otherwise compacted at approximately every 4 feet vertically as the slope is built.

4. Corners and bends in slopes should have special attention during construction as these are the most difficult areas to obtain proper compaction.

5. Cut slopes should be cut to the finished surface. Excessive undercutting and smoothing of the face with fill may necessitate stabilization.

UTILITY TRENCH CONSTRUCTION AND BACKFILL
Utility trench excavation and backfill is the contractor’s responsibility. The geotechnical consultant typically provides periodic observation and testing of these operations. While efforts are made to make sufficient observations and tests to verify that the contractors’ methods and procedures are adequate to achieve proper compaction, it is typically impractical to observe all backfill procedures. As such, it is critical that the contractor use consistent backfill procedures. 672

GENERAL GRADING GUIDELINES APPENDIX B
Catavina East Project Page B-5
Palm Desert, Riverside County, California Project No. 4186-CR Compaction methods vary for trench compaction and experience indicates many methods can be successful. However, procedures that “worked” on previous projects may or may not prove effective on a given site. The contractor(s) should outline the procedures proposed, so that we may discuss them prior to construction. We will offer comments based on our knowledge of site conditions and experience.

1. Utility trench backfill in slopes, structural areas, in streets and beneath flat work or hardscape should be brought to at least optimum moisture and compacted to at least 90 percent of the laboratory standard. Soil should be moisture conditioned prior to placing in the trench.

2. Flooding and jetting are not typically recommended or acceptable for native soils. Flooding or jetting may be used with select sand having a Sand Equivalent (SE) of 30 or higher. This is typically limited to the following uses:
a) shallow (12 + inches) under slab interior trenches and, b) as bedding in pipe zone.

The water should be allowed to dissipate prior to pouring slabs or completing trench compaction.

3. Care should be taken not to place soils at high moisture content within the upper three feet of the trench backfill in street areas, as overly wet soils may impact subgrade preparation.

Moisture may be reduced to 2% below optimum moisture in areas to be paved within the upper three feet below sub grade.

4. Sand backfill should not be allowed in exterior trenches adjacent to and within an area extending below a 1:1 projection from the outside bottom edge of a footing, unless it is similar to the surrounding soil.

5. Trench compaction testing is generally at the discretion of the geotechnical consultant. Testing frequency will be based on trench depth and the contractors’ procedures. A probing rod would be used to assess the consistency of compaction between tested areas and untested areas. If zones are found that are considered less compact than other areas, this should be brought to the contractor’s attention.

JOB SAFETY
General
Personnel safety is a primary concern on all job sites. The following summaries are safety considerations for use by all our employees on multi-employer construction sites. On ground personnel are at the highest risk of injury and possible fatality on grading construction projects. The company recognizes that construction activities will vary on each site and that job site safety is the contractor's responsibility.

However, it is imperative that all personnel be safety conscious to avoid accidents and potential injury. 673

GENERAL GRADING GUIDELINES APPENDIX B
Catavina East Project Page B-6
Palm Desert, Riverside County, California Project No. 4186-CR In an effort to minimize risks associated with geotechnical testing and observation, the following precautions are to be implemented for the safety of our field personnel on grading and construction projects.

1. Safety Meetings: Our field personnel are directed to attend the contractor's regularly scheduled safety meetings.

2. Safety Vests: Safety vests are provided for and are to be worn by our personnel while on the job site.

3. Safety Flags: Safety flags are provided to our field technicians; one is to be affixed to the vehicle when on site, the other is to be placed atop the spoil pile on all test pits.

In the event that the contractor's representative observes any of our personnel not following the above, we request that it be brought to the attention of our office.

Test Pits Location, Orientation and Clearance
The technician is responsible for selecting test pit locations. The primary concern is the technician's safety. However, it is necessary to take sufficient tests at various locations to obtain a representative sampling of the fill. As such, efforts will be made to coordinate locations with the grading contractors authorized representatives (e.g. dump man, operator, supervisor, grade checker, etc.), and to select locations following or behind the established traffic pattern, preferably outside of current traffic. The contractors authorized representative should direct excavation of the pit and safety during the test period. Again, safety is the paramount concern.

Test pits should be excavated so that the spoil pile is placed away from oncoming traffic. The technician's vehicle is to be placed next to the test pit, opposite the spoil pile. This necessitates that the fill be maintained in a drivable condition. Alternatively, the contractor may opt to park a piece of equipment in front of test pits, particularly in small fill areas or those with limited access.

A zone of non-encroachment should be established for all test pits (see diagram below). No grading equipment should enter this zone during the test procedure. The zone should extend outward to the sides approximately 50 feet from the center of the test pit and 100 feet in the direction of traffic flow.

This zone is established both for safety and to avoid excessive ground vibration, which typically decreases test results.

Slope Tests
When taking slope tests, the technician should park their vehicle directly above or below the test location on the slope. The contractor's representative should effectively keep all equipment at a safe operation distance (e.g. 50 feet) away from the slope during testing.

The technician is directed to withdraw from the active portion of the fill as soon as possible following testing. The technician's vehicle should be parked at the perimeter of the fill in a highly visible location.

Trench Safety
It is the contractor's responsibility to provide safe access into trenches where compaction testing is needed. Trenches for all utilities should be excavated in accordance with CAL-OSHA and any other applicable safety standards. Safe conditions will be required to enable compaction testing of the trench backfill.

All utility trench excavations in excess of 5 feet deep, which a person enters, are to be shored or laid back. Trench access should be provided in accordance with OSHA standards. Our personnel are directed not to enter any trench by being lowered or "riding down" on the equipment.

Our personnel are directed not to enter any excavation which;

1. is 5 feet or deeper unless shored or laid back,

2. exit points or ladders are not provided,

3. displays any evidence of instability, has any loose rock or other debris which could fall into the trench, or
675

GENERAL GRADING GUIDELINES APPENDIX B
Catavina East Project Page B-8
Palm Desert, Riverside County, California Project No. 4186-CR

4. displays any other evidence of any unsafe conditions regardless of depth.

If the contractor fails to provide safe access to trenches for compaction testing, our company policy requires that the soil technician withdraws and notifies their supervisor. The contractor’s representative will then be contacted in an effort to effect a solution. All backfill not tested due to safety concerns or other reasons is subject to reprocessing and/or removal.

Procedures
In the event that the technician's safety is jeopardized or compromised as a result of the contractor's failure to comply with any of the above, the technician is directed to inform both the developer's and contractor's representatives. If the condition is not rectified, the technician is required, by company policy, to immediately withdraw and notify their supervisor. The contractor’s representative will then be contacted in an effort to affect a solution. No further testing will be performed until the situation is rectified. Any fill placed in the interim can be considered unacceptable and subject to reprocessing, recompaction or removal.

In the event that the soil technician does not comply with the above or other established safety guidelines, we request that the contractor bring this to the technician’s attention and notify our project manager or office. Effective communication and coordination between the contractors' representative and the field technician(s) is strongly encouraged in order to implement the above safety program and safety in general.

The safety procedures outlined above should be discussed at the contractor's safety meetings. This will serve to inform and remind equipment operators of these safety procedures, particularly the zone of non-encroachment.

1 Introduction
This report documents the updated results of surveys conducted in February and April 2025 to identify any new potential biological resources constraints for the Portola Springs Residential Development Project (project) located in the City of Palm Desert, Riverside County, California. This report is intended to support the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Addendum Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND). Figure 1, Project Location, shows the regional location of the project and the site vicinity. All figures are provided in Appendix A, Figures.

The purpose of this report is to (1) describe the conditions of biological resources within the project site in terms of vegetation communities, plants, wildlife, wildlife habitats, and wetlands; (2) quantify potential direct and indirect impacts to special-status biological resources that would result from the project; (3) discuss those impacts in terms of biological significance in view of federal, state, and local laws and the Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (CVMSHCP); and (4) specify measures to avoid, minimize, and/or mitigate to a level of insignificance any significant impacts that would occur to special-status biological resources as a result of project implementation.

1.1 Project Location
The project site is located in Palm Desert, Riverside County, south of Interstate 10 and north of State Route 111, more specifically, southwest of the intersection of Frank Sinatra Drive and Portola Avenue (Figure 1). The site is located on Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 620-400-030 and 620-400-031. The latitude and longitude, respectively, for the approximate center of the site are 33.7705º, -116.3725º. The project site is in the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Myoma quadrangle, Section 4, Range 6 East, Township 5 South. The elevation ranges from 268 feet to 283 feet above mean sea level. The project site is located within the boundaries of the CVMSHCP, but is not in a Conservation Area (Figure 2, Coachella Valley MSHCP Plan Area).

1.2 Project Description
The proposed project would be located at the southwest intersection of Frank Sinatra Drive and Portola Avenue and includes the development of a 159-lot single-family residential development, and associated improvements. Access would be available to the project site via a driveway on Frank Sinatra Drive, as well as two driveways along Portola Avenue. The project site includes stormwater retention infrastructure, including three retention basins, and would include utility connections, landscaping and open space, and internal roadways.

Circulation and Parking
The project site would continue to be accessible via three entries and there would be two entrances to access the project site from Portola Avenue, and one entrance to access the project site from Frank Sinatra Drive. The modified project’s proposed internal roadways would provide internal circulation throughout the project site. All driveways would be right-turn in and right-turn out.

Parking would be provided within garages attached to each home, along with driveway and street parking. 687

AUGUST 2025
On-Site Improvements
The project would also include improvements to Frank Sinatra Drive and Portola Road along street frontages, including new sidewalks and sidewalk landscaping. In conformance with the City of Palm Desert’s (City’s) desert flora landscape design manual, a variety of trees, shrubs, plants, and land covers would be planted in the landscaped areas proposed throughout the project site.

Utility and Infrastructure Improvements
The project site would connect off-site to existing domestic water, sanitary sewer, and dry utility infrastructure facilities located adjacent to the site. The on-site project would also include construction of three stormwater retention basins, two along the western edge of the project site and one at the southern boundary of the project site, which would abut Portola Avenue.

2 Regulatory Setting
This section describes the regulatory framework relevant to the project.

2.1 Federal Regulations

2.1.1 Federal Endangered Species Act
The federal Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 (16 USC 1531 et seq.), as amended, is administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for most plant and animal species and by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Marine Fisheries Service for certain marine species. This legislation is intended to provide a means to conserve the ecosystems upon which endangered and threatened species depend and to provide programs for the conservation of those species, thus preventing the extinction of plants and wildlife.

The ESA defines an endangered species as “any species that is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range.” Under the ESA, it is unlawful to “take” any listed species; “take” is defined as “harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct.” The ESA allows for the issuance of incidental take permits for listed species under Section 7, which is generally available for projects that also require other federal agency permits or other approvals, and under Section 10, which provides for the approval of habitat conservation plans on private property without any other federal agency involvement.

2.1.2 Migratory Bird Treaty Act
The Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) prohibits the intentional and unintentional take of any migratory bird or any part, nest, or eggs of any such bird. Under the MBTA, “take” is defined as pursuing, hunting, shooting, capturing, collecting, or killing, or attempting to do so (16 USC 703 et seq.). Currently, the USFWS Migratory Birds Permit office considers nests that support eggs, nestlings, or juveniles to be active. Additionally, Executive Order 13186, Responsibilities of Federal Agencies to Protect Migratory Birds, requires that any project with federal involvement address impacts of federal actions on migratory birds, with the purpose of promoting conservation of migratory bird populations (66 FR 3853–3856). The Executive Order requires federal agencies to work with USFWS to develop a memorandum of understanding. USFWS reviews actions that might affect these species.

2.1.3 Clean Water Act
Section 404
The objective of the Clean Water Act (CWA) is to restore and maintain the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the nation’s waters. Under Section 404 of the CWA, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has the authority to regulate activities that could discharge fill or dredge material or otherwise adversely modify wetlands or other waters of the United States. USACE implements the federal policy embodied in Executive Order 11990, which, when implemented, is intended to result in no net loss of wetland values or function. 689

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 4
AUGUST 2025
The definition of “waters of the United States” establishes the geographic scope for authority under Section 404 of the CWA; however, the CWA does not specifically define waters of the United States, leaving the definition open to statutory interpretation and agency rulemaking. The definition of what constitutes “waters of the United States” (provided in 33 CFR Section 328.3[a]) has changed multiple times over the past few decades, starting with the United States v. Riverside Bayview Homes Inc. court ruling in 1985. Subsequent court proceedings, rule makings, and congressional acts in 2001 (Solid Waste Agency of Northern Cook County v. United States Army Corps of Engineers), 2006 (Rapanos v. United States), 2015 (Clean Water Rule), 2018 (suspension of the Clean Water Rule), 2019 (formal repeal of the Clean Water Rule), 2020 (Navigable Waters Protection Rule), and 2021 (Pasqua Tribe et al. v. United States Environmental Protection Agency, resulting in remand and vacatur of the Navigable Waters Protection Rule and a return to “the pre-2015 regulatory regime”) have attempted to provide greater clarity to the term and its regulatory implementation. On December 30, 2022, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and USACE announced the final Revised Definition of “Waters of the United States” rule (the Rule) (88 CFR 3004– 3144). The Rule was published in the Federal Register on January 18, 2023, became effective on March 20, 2023, and sought to restore federal jurisdiction over waters that were protected prior to 2015 under the CWA for traditional navigable waters, the territorial seas, interstate waters, and upstream water resources that significantly affect those waters. The Rule represents a re-expansion of federal jurisdiction over certain water bodies and wetlands previously exempt, pursuant to the 2020 Navigable Waters Protection Rule. The Rule also considers various subsequent court decisions, including two notable Supreme Court decisions.

There are two key changes that the Rule incorporates. First, the Rule reinstates the “significant nexus” test. The significant nexus test refers to waters that either alone or in combination with similarly situated waters in the region significantly affect the chemical, physical, or biological integrity of traditional navigable waters, interstate waters, or the territorial seas (86 FR 69372-69450). The significant nexus test attempts to establish a scientific connection between smaller water bodies, such as ephemeral or intermittent tributaries, and larger, more traditional navigable waters, such as rivers. Significant nexus evaluations take into consideration hydrologic and ecologic factors including, but not limited to, volume, duration, and the frequency of surface water flow in the resource and its proximity to a traditional navigable water, as well as the functions performed by the resource on adjacent wetlands.

Second, the Rule adopts the “relatively permanent standard” test. To meet the relatively permanent standard, water bodies must be relatively permanent, standing, or continuously flowing and have a continuous surface connection to such waters.

On May 25, 2023, the Supreme Court issued its long-anticipated decision in Sackett v. EPA, in which it rejected EPA’s claim that “waters of the United States,” as defined in the CWA, include wetlands with an ecologically significant nexus to traditional navigable waters. The Supreme Court held that only those wetlands with a continuous surface water connection to traditional navigable waterways would be afforded federal protection under the CWA. Specifically, to assert jurisdiction over an adjacent wetland under the CWA, a party must establish that (1) the adjacent body of water constitutes water(s) of the United States (i.e., a relatively permanent body of water connected to traditional interstate navigable waters); and (2) the wetland has a continuous surface connection with that water, making it difficult to determine where the water ends and the wetland begins.

On August 29, 2023, EPA and USACE announced the final rule amending the 2023 definition of “waters of the United States,” conforming with the Sackett v. EPA decision. Some of the key changes include removing the significant nexus test from consideration when identifying tributaries and other waters as federally protected and revising the adjacency test when identifying federally jurisdictional wetlands. Under EPA’s new “waters of the United States” definition, a “water of the United States” is a relatively permanent, standing, or continuously flowing body of water that has an apparent surface connection to a “traditionally navigable water” to fall within federal purview. 690

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 5
AUGUST 2025
The new rule applies to wetlands and streams throughout the United States. Although the Sackett opinion did not specifically reference streams, EPA’s new rule extends the “continuous surface connection” standard to streams, thereby removing non-permanent, ephemeral streams that do not meet these standards from federal jurisdiction.

The term “wetlands” (a subset of waters of the United States) is defined in 33 CFR, Section 328.3(c)(16), as “areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas.” In the absence of wetlands, the limits of USACE jurisdiction in non-tidal waters, such as intermittent streams, extend to the ordinary high water mark (OHWM), which is defined in 33 CFR 328.3(c)(7) as “that line on the shore established by the fluctuations of water and indicated by physical characteristics such as a clear, natural line impressed on the bank, shelving, changes in the character of soil, destruction of terrestrial vegetation, the presence of litter and debris, or other appropriate means that consider the characteristics of the surrounding areas.” Section 401 of the Clean Water Act
The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) has authority over wetlands through Section 401 of the CWA, the Porter–Cologne Water Quality Control Act, California Code of Regulations Section 3831(k), and the California Wetlands Conservation Policy. The CWA requires that an applicant for a Section 404 permit (to discharge dredge or fill material into waters of the United States) first obtain certification from the appropriate state agency stating that the fill is consistent with the state’s water quality standards and criteria. In California, the authority to either grant certification or waive the requirement for permits is delegated by SWRCB to the nine regional boards. The Colorado River Basin Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) has authority for Section 401 compliance in the project area. A request for certification is submitted to the regional board at the same time that an application is filed with USACE.

2.2 State Regulations

2.2.1 California Endangered Species Act
The California Endangered Species Act (CESA) (California Fish and Game Code, Sections 2050–2068) provides protection for and prohibits the take of plant, fish, and wildlife species listed by the State of California. Unlike the ESA, under CESA, state-listed plants have the same degree of protection as wildlife, but insects and other invertebrates may not be listed. Take is defined similarly to the ESA and is prohibited for both listed and candidate species. Take authorization may be obtained by a project applicant from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) under CESA Section 2081, which allows take of a listed species for educational, scientific, or management purposes. In this case, private developers consult with CDFW to develop a set of measures and standards for managing the listed species, including full mitigation for impacts, funding of implementation, and monitoring of mitigation measures.

2.2.2 California Fish and Game Code
Fully Protected Species
Sections 3511, 4700, 5050, and 5515 of the California Fish and Game Code outline protection for fully protected species of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish. Species that are fully protected by these sections may not be taken or possessed at any time. CDFW cannot issue permits or licenses that authorize the take of any fully 691

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 6
AUGUST 2025
protected species, except under certain circumstances, such as scientific research and live capture and relocation of such species pursuant to a permit for the protection of livestock. Furthermore, it is the responsibility of CDFW to maintain viable populations of all native species. Toward that end, CDFW has designated certain vertebrate species as Species of Special Concern because declining population levels, limited ranges, and/or continuing threats have made them vulnerable to extinction.

Sections 1600–1616
CDFW jurisdiction includes ephemeral, intermittent, and perennial watercourses (including dry washes) and lakes characterized by the presence of (1) definable bed and banks; and (2) existing fish or wildlife resources. CDFW takes jurisdiction to the top of bank of the stream or to the limit of the adjacent riparian vegetation, which may include oak woodlands in canyon bottoms. Historical court cases have further extended CDFW jurisdiction to include watercourses that seemingly disappear but reemerge elsewhere. Under the CDFW definition, a watercourse need not exhibit evidence of an OHWM to be claimed as jurisdictional. CDFW does not have jurisdiction over ocean or shoreline resources.

Under California Fish and Game Code Sections 1600–1616, CDFW has the authority to regulate work that will substantially divert or obstruct the natural flow of, or substantially change or use any material from, the bed, channel, or bank of any river, stream, or lake. CDFW also has the authority to regulate work that will deposit or dispose of debris, waste, or other material containing crumbled, flaked, or ground pavement where it may pass into any river, stream, or lake. This regulation takes the form of a requirement for a Lake or Streambed Alteration Agreement and is applicable to all projects. Applications to CDFW must include a complete certified CEQA document.

California Native Plant Protection Act
The Native Plant Protection Act of 1977 (see Section 1900 et seq. of the California Fish and Game Code) directed CDFW to carry out the legislature’s intent to “preserve, protect and enhance rare and endangered plants in this State.” The Native Plant Protection Act gave the California Fish and Game Commission the power to designate native plants as “endangered” or “rare” and to protect endangered and rare plants from take. CESA expanded on the original Native Plant Protection Act and enhanced legal protection for plants, but the Native Plant Protection Act remains part of the California Fish and Game Code. To align with federal regulations, CESA created the categories of “threatened” and “endangered” species. It converted all “rare” animals into the act as threatened species but did not do so for rare plants. Thus, there are three listing categories for plants in California: rare, threatened, and endangered. Because rare plants are not included in CESA, mitigation measures for impacts to rare plants are specified in a formal agreement between CDFW and the project applicant.

Nesting Birds
Section 3503 of the California Fish and Game Code states that it is unlawful to take, possess, or needlessly destroy the nests or eggs of any bird, except as otherwise provided by this code or any regulation made pursuant thereto.

Section 3503.5 protects all birds of prey (raptors) and their eggs and nests. Section 3511 states that fully protected birds or parts thereof may not be taken or possessed at any time. Section 3513 states that it is unlawful to take or possess any migratory non-game bird as designated in the MBTA. 692

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 7
AUGUST 2025

2.2.3 California Environmental Quality Act
CEQA requires identification of a project’s potentially significant impacts on biological resources and the ways that such impacts can be avoided, minimized, or mitigated. CEQA also provides guidance and thresholds for use by lead agencies for evaluating the significance of proposed impacts.

The State of California CEQA Guidelines (CEQA Guidelines) Section 15380(b)(1) defines endangered animals or plants as species or subspecies whose “survival and reproduction in the wild are in immediate jeopardy from one or more causes, including loss of habitat, change in habitat, overexploitation, predation, competition, disease, or other factors.” A rare animal or plant is defined in Section 15380(b)(2) as a species that, although not presently threatened with extinction, exists “in such small numbers throughout all or a significant portion of its range that it may become endangered if its environment worsens; or … [t]he species is likely to become endangered within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range and may be considered ‘threatened’ as that term is used in the federal Endangered Species Act.” Additionally, an animal or plant may be presumed to be endangered, rare, or threatened if it meets the criteria for listing, as defined further in CEQA Guidelines Section 15380(c).

CDFW has developed a list of “Special Species” as “a general term that refers to all of the taxa the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) is interested in tracking, regardless of their legal or protection status” (CDFW 2025a).

This is a broader list than those species that are protected under the ESA, CESA, and other California Fish and Game Code provisions, and includes lists developed by other organizations, including, for example, the Audubon Watch List Species. Guidance documents prepared by other agencies, including the Bureau of Land Management Sensitive Species and USFWS Birds of Special Concern, are also included on this CDFW Special Species list.

Additionally, CDFW has concluded that plant species listed as California Rare Plant Rank (CRPR) 1 and 2 by the California Native Plant Society (CNPS), and potentially some CRPR 3 plants, are covered by CEQA Guidelines Section 15380.

Section IV, Appendix G (Environmental Checklist Form) of the CEQA Guidelines requires an evaluation of impacts to “any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations or by the California Department of Fish and Game or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.”

2.2.4 Porter–Cologne Water Quality Control Act
Pursuant to provisions of the Porter–Cologne Water Quality Control Act, the RWQCBs regulate discharging waste, or proposals to discharge waste, within any region that could affect a water of the state (California Water Code Section 13260[a]). SWRCB defines a water of the state as “any surface water or groundwater, including saline waters, within the boundaries of the state” (California Water Code Section 13050[e]). All waters of the United States are waters of the state. Waters of the state include wetlands; the SWRCB definition of wetlands includes the following:

1. Natural wetlands

2. Wetlands created by modification of a surface water of the state

3. Artificial wetlands that meet any of the following criteria:
a. Approved by an agency as compensatory mitigation for impacts to other waters of the state, except where the approving agency explicitly identifies the mitigation as being of limited duration
b. Specifically identified in a water quality control plan as a wetland or other water of the state 693

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 8
AUGUST 2025
c. Resulted from historic human activity, is not subject to ongoing operation and maintenance, and has become a relatively permanent part of the natural landscape d. Greater than or equal to 1 acre in size unless the artificial wetland was constructed and is currently used and maintained, primarily for one or more of the following purposes:
industrial or municipal wastewater treatment or disposal; settling of sediment; detention, retention, infiltration, or treatment of stormwater runoff and other pollutants or runoff subject to regulation under a municipal, construction, or industrial permitting program; treatment of surface waters; agricultural crop irrigation or stock watering; fire suppression; industrial processing or cooling water; active surface mining—even if the site is managed for interim wetlands functions and values; log storage; treatment, storage, or distribution of recycled water; maximizing groundwater recharge (this does not include wetlands that have incidental groundwater recharge benefits); or fields flooded for rice growing.

Wetlands that may not meet all of USACE’s wetland delineation criteria are considered wetland waters of the state if, “under normal circumstances, (1) the area has continuous or recurrent saturation of the upper substrate caused by groundwater, or shallow surface water, or both; (2) the duration of such saturation is sufficient to cause anaerobic conditions in the upper substrate; and (3) the area’s vegetation is dominated by hydrophytes or the area lacks vegetation” (SWRCB 2019). Additionally, aquatic resources that USACE determines to not be waters of the United States because they lack a significant nexus to a traditional navigable water or are above the OHWM limit of federal jurisdiction may also be considered waters of the state. If a CWA Section 404 permit is not required for a project, the RWQCB may still require a permit (waste discharge requirements) for impacts to waters of the state under the Porter–Cologne Water Quality Control Act.

2.3 Local Regulations

2.3.1 Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat
Conservation Plan
The project is located within the boundaries of the CVMSHCP (CVAG 2016) as administered by the Coachella Valley Conservation Commission. The CVMSHCP is a habitat conservation plan pursuant to Section 10(a) of the ESA, which authorizes the issuance of take permits and establishes standards for the content of habitat conservation plans. It is also a natural community conservation plan pursuant to California Fish and Game Code Section 2835, which authorizes CDFW to permit the take of any covered species whose conservation and management are provided for in an approved natural community conservation plan. Compliance with the CVMSHCP (and associated permits) provides permittees with take authorization for covered species so long as the activity is covered by the CVMSHCP.

Covered species include listed and non-listed species that are adequately conserved by the CVMSHCP.

The project is a covered activity under the CVMSHCP and would receive coverage for impacts to covered species.

The project is neither located within nor adjacent to any designated Conservation Areas (Figure 2). The nearest Conservation Area, the Thousand Palms Conservation Area, is approximately 2 miles northwest project, on the opposite side of the Interstate 10 freeway.

2.3.2 City of Palm Desert
The City of Palm Desert General Plan is the City’s foundation upon which all land decisions are based. The City adopted the General Plan in November 2016 (City of Palm Desert 2016). The following goals and policies from the City of Palm Desert General Plan are relevant to the project.

Goal 3. Passive Open Space. Preserved open space areas that represent significant aesthetic, cultural, environmental, economic and recreational resources for the community.

Policies

3.1 Open space network. Require new development to comply with requirements of the CVMSHCP.

3.2 Grading and vegetation removal. Limit grading and vegetation removal of new development activities to the minimum extent necessary to reduce erosion and sedimentation.

3.3 Preservation of natural land features. Preserve significant natural features and incorporate into all developments. Such features may include ridges, rock outcroppings, natural drainage courses, wetland and riparian areas, steep topography, important or landmark trees and views.

Goal 4. Plant and Wildlife Habitat Areas. Plant and wildlife habitat areas that are protected, productive, viable natural resources and exist harmoniously with adjacent development.

Policies

4.1 Buffers from new development. Require new developments adjacent to identified plant and wildlife habitat areas to maintain a protective buffer.

4.2 Wildlife corridors. Support the creation of local and regional conservation and preservation easements that protect habitat areas, serve as wildlife corridors and help protect sensitive biological resources.

4.3 Landscape design. Continue to encourage new developments to incorporate native vegetation materials into landscape plans and prohibit the use of species known to be invasive according to the California Invasive Plant Inventory.

3 Methods
Data regarding biological resources present within the Biological Survey Area (BSA), which includes the approximate

18.7-acre project site, 0.7-acre off-site area, and a 100-foot buffer, were obtained through a review of pertinent literature, field reconnaissance, and a habitat assessment, which is described in detail in this section. For the purposes of this report, special-status resources are defined as follows:
▪ Special-status plant species include:
- Species designated as either rare, threatened, or endangered by CDFW or USFWS and protected under either CESA (California Fish and Game Code Section 2050 et seq.) or ESA (16 USC 1531 et seq.) - Species that are candidate species being considered or proposed for listing under ESA or CESA - Species that are included on the CDFW Special Vascular Plants, Bryophytes, and Lichens List (CDFW 2025b) with a CRPR of 1 or 2 in the CNPS Rare Plant Inventory (CNPS 2025a) ▪ Special-status wildlife species include:
- Species designated as either rare, threatened, endangered, or fully protected by CDFW or USFWS and protected under either CESA (California Fish and Game Code Section 2050 et seq.) or ESA (16 USC 1531 et seq.)
- Species that are candidate species being considered or proposed for listing under ESA or CESA - Other species that are included on the CDFW Special Animals List (CDFW 2025a) as Species of Special Concern
▪ Special-status vegetation communities are those designated as sensitive by CDFW (CDFW 2025c)

3.1 Literature Review
Prior to conducting the field investigation, the CNDDB and CNPS Rare Plant Inventory were queried based on the USGS 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle map for Myoma, California, where the BSA is located, as well as the surrounding eight USGS 7.5-minute quadrangle maps (i.e., La Quinta, West Berdoo Canyon, Keys View, East Deception Canyon, Indio, Seven Palms Valley, Rancho Mirage, and Cathedral City). The purpose of this review was to determine whether special-status plant and wildlife species are known to occur in the vicinity of or within the BSA.

Other literature reviewed included A Manual of California Vegetation, Online Edition (CNPS 2025b); the California Natural Community List (CDFW 2025c); State and Federally Listed Endangered, Threatened, and Rare Plants of California (CDFW 2025d); the CDFW California Wildlife Habitat Relationships Life History Accounts and Range Maps (CDFW 2025e) and the USFWS Information for Planning and Consultation (USFWS 2025a). The following available resources were reviewed to assess the potential for jurisdictional waters: aerial photographs (Google Earth 2022; NETR 2024), the USGS Myoma 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle map (USGS 2025a), the National Hydrography Dataset and Watershed Boundary Dataset (USGS 2025b), and the USFWS National Wetlands Inventory (USFWS 2025b).

3.2 Field Surveys
Dudek conducted a general field reconnaissance survey, including vegetation mapping, and a general habitat assessment within the BSA in February 2025. Dudek conducted a focused rare plant survey in April 2025. The potential for special-status plant and wildlife species to occur within BSA was evaluated based on the observed vegetation communities, soils present, and surrounding features. Table 1 lists the dates, conditions, and personnel for each survey.

3.2.1 General Field Reconnaissance
In February, Dudek biologists conducted a general field reconnaissance survey within the BSA, which includes the project site and surrounding 100-foot buffer. The survey date, biologists, and weather conditions are included in Table 1. All native and naturalized plant species encountered in the BSA were identified and recorded. The potential for special-status plant and wildlife species to occur within the site was evaluated based on the vegetation communities and soils present. Dudek also conducted an assessment for the presence of waters or wetlands potentially subject to state and/or federal regulatory agency jurisdiction. This included searching for the presence of drainage features, topographic features, and soils that could support standing water. However, a formal wetland delineation was not conducted as part of the site visit.

3.2.2 Vegetation Community and Land Cover Mapping
In conjunction with the general reconnaissance survey, Dudek biologists conducted vegetation mapping within the BSA. Dudek biologists used CDFW’s Protocols for Surveying and Evaluating Impacts on Special Status Native Plant Populations and Natural Communities (CDFW 2018) and California Natural Community List (CDFW 2025c), also referred to as the Natural Community List, based on A Manual of California Vegetation, Second Edition (Sawyer et al. 2009) and A Manual of California Vegetation, Online Edition (CNPS 2025b), to map the entire BSA. These classification systems focus on a quantified, hierarchical approach that includes both floristic (plant species) and physiognomic (community structure and form) factors as currently observed (as opposed to predicting climax or successional stages). Vegetation communities and land covers were delineated to the vegetation alliance level and, where appropriate, the association level. Some modifications, such as the Preliminary Descriptions of the Terrestrial Natural Communities of California (Holland 1986; Oberbauer et al. 2008), were incorporated to accommodate the lack of conformity of the observed communities to those included in these references.

Vegetation mapping was conducted on foot to visually cover 100% of the BSA. Vegetation communities were mapped in the field using an Esri ArcGIS mobile application. Vegetation communities were classified based on site 698

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 13
AUGUST 2025
factors, descriptions, distribution, and characteristic species present within an area. Information was recorded, including dominant species and associated cover classes, aspect, canopy height, and visible disturbance factors.

Minimum mapping units were established at 1 acre for upland communities not considered sensitive and

0.25 acres for sensitive vegetation communities and riparian and wetland vegetation communities (CDFW 2025c).

Visible disturbance factors were also noted during vegetation mapping.

Following completion of the fieldwork, Dudek geographic information system (GIS) analysts digitized the vegetation boundaries as delineated by the field biologists and created a GIS coverage map for vegetation communities.

3.2.3 Flora
All plant species encountered during the field surveys were identified and recorded. Latin and common names for plant species with a California Rare Plant Rank follow the CNPS Rare Plant Inventory (CNPS 2025a). For plant species without a California Rare Plant Rank, Latin names follow the Jepson Online Interchange for California Floristics (Jepson Flora Project 2025), and common names follow the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service Plants Database (USDA 2025a). Potential for special-status plant species to occur within the BSA was assessed based on known geographic and elevation ranges as well as habitat and soil conditions that are known to support species occurring in the region. Focused special-status plant surveys conformed to the CNPS Botanical Survey Guidelines (CNPS 2001), Protocols for Surveying and Evaluating Impacts to Special Status Native Plant Populations and Sensitive Natural Communities (CDFW 2018), and USFWS’s General Rare Plant Survey Guidelines (Cypher 2002).

3.2.4 Fauna
All wildlife species detected during the field survey, by sight, calls, tracks, scat, or other signs—were identified and recorded. Binoculars were used to aid in the identification of observed wildlife. No trapping or focused surveys for special-status species or nocturnal species were conducted. In addition to species observed, expected wildlife usage of the BSA was determined according to known habitat preferences of regional wildlife species and knowledge of their relative distributions in the area. Latin and common names for wildlife species referred to in this report follow Crother (2017) for reptiles and amphibians, the American Ornithological Society (Chesser et al. 2024) for birds, the Mammal Diversity Database (ASM 2025) for mammals, and Moyle (2002) for fish. Potential for specialstatus wildlife species to occur within the BSA was assessed based on known geographic ranges, the presence/absence of suitable habitat, and other natural history elements that might predict their occurrence.

3.2.5 Special-Status and Regulated Resources

3.2.5.1 Special-Status Plant Survey
Dudek conducted a focused special-status plant survey within the BSA on April 14, 2025. Field survey methods and mapping of rare plants conformed to the CNPS Botanical Survey Guidelines (CNPS 2001), Protocols for Surveying and Evaluating Impacts to Special-Status Native Populations and Natural Communities (CDFW 2018), and General Rare Plant Survey Guidelines (Cypher 2002). The surveys consisted of one survey pass in April that provided 100% coverage of the BSA.

AUGUST 2025

3.2.6 Survey Limitations
Limitations of the field survey include a diurnal bias for most species and the absence of focused trapping for mammals and reptiles since trapping is generally only performed for select listed species. The survey was conducted during the daytime to maximize visibility and detection of plants and most animals. As such, birds represent the largest component of vertebrate fauna recorded during the surveys, as they are usually most active during daytime hours. In contrast, daytime surveys usually result in few observations of mammals, many of which may only be active at night. Many species of reptiles and amphibians are similarly nocturnal and/or cryptic in their habitats and are difficult to observe using standard meandering transects.

However, despite these limitations, the survey work conducted in the BSA provides an adequate overall assessment of floral and faunal resources for the purposes of evaluating potential biological constraints. 700

4 Environmental Setting
The purpose of this section is to describe the general existing conditions within and adjacent to the BSA to document the baseline conditions for this report and subsequent analysis.

4.1 Land Use
The BSA consists of developed and vacant lands and a small segment of Frank Sinatra Drive to the north, and Portola Avenue to the east.

The BSA is surrounded by residential development and golf courses, including the Palm Desert Greens County Club to the west, and the Desert Willow Golf Resort to the east. Immediately west of the BSA is a vacant lot that was previously operated as the Santa Rosa Country Club Golf Course.

4.2 Climate
The region has a desert climate, with mild winters, very hot summers, and very little annual precipitation. On average, July is the warmest month, with an average high temperature of 108°F, and December is the coolest month on average, with a low of 42°F. Rainfall can occur during the cool winter months (i.e., December through February) and during the summer monsoonal months of August and September. The average total monthly precipitation during the winter months is approximately 1.0 inch, while the average monthly precipitation during the monsoonal months is 0.28 inches. The maximum average precipitation occurs in January. The mean annual rainfall for the region is approximately 5.49 inches of rain per year (WRCC 2025).

4.3 Topography
The topography within the BSA is relatively flat but gently sloped from the north south. Elevations in the project site range from 268 feet to 283 feet above mean sea level (Google Earth 2022).

4.4 Soils
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resource Conservation Service’s Web Soil Survey (USDA 2025b), one soil series occurs within the BSA: Myoma fine sand, 0%–5% slopes; and Myoma fine sand, 5%–15% slopes (Figure 3, Soils).

Myoma Series. Myoma soils are somewhat excessively drained soils that form in sand blown from recent alluvium on nearly level land to rolling slopes. Myoma soils are mixed, hyperthermic Typic Torripsamments. Myoma soils have very slow runoff and rapid permeability. This soil series supports growing citrus fruits, grapes, alfalfa, dates, and crops under irrigation, and occurs in uncultivated areas that contain ephemeral grasses and forbs and a sparse cover of creosote bush (Larrea tridentata), sunflower (Helianthus spp.), and mesquite (Prosopis spp.). Myoma fine sand occurs at elevations of 1,800 feet above sea level to 200 feet below sea level (USDA 2025b). 701

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 16
AUGUST 2025

4.5 Watersheds and Hydrology
The BSA occurs within the Whitewater River Subbasin, Hydrologic Unit Code 8 (18100201), and within the City of Palm Desert-Whitewater River subwatershed, Hydrologic Unit Code 12 (181002010608) of the Upper Whitewater River watershed, Hydrologic Unit Code 10 (1810020106) (Figure 4, Hydrological Setting). The Whitewater River is the major drainage course in the RWQCB Basin Planning Area. There is a perennial flow from the mountains, but because of diversions and percolation into the groundwater basin, the Whitewater River becomes dry farther downstream. The constructed downstream extension of the Whitewater River Stormwater Channel, known as the Coachella Valley Stormwater Channel, serves as a drainage for irrigation return flows, treated community wastewater, and storm runoff (RWQCB et al. 2023).

5 Results
This section describes the results of the literature review and field surveys within the BSA.

5.1 Vegetation Communities and Land Covers
One vegetation community and one land cover type were mapped within the BSA. The location of the vegetation communities and land cover types are presented in Figure 5, Biological Resources. Table 2 summarizes the natural vegetation communities and land cover types mapped within the BSA. Representative photographs of the BSA are included in Appendix B.

CDFW state rankings of 1, 2, or 3 are considered sensitive, and impacts to these communities typically require mitigation. No vegetation communities within the BSA are considered sensitive under CDFW or the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CDFW 2025c).

Notes: BSA = Biological Survey Area; N/A = not applicable. 1 The conservation status of a vegetation community is designated by a number from 1 to 5, preceded by a letter reflecting the appropriate geographic scale of the assessment (G = global, N = national, and S = subnational). The numbers have the following meaning (NatureServe 2025):
1 = critically imperiled
2 = imperiled
3 = vulnerable to extirpation or extinction
4 = apparently secure
5 = demonstrably widespread, abundant, and secure
GNA = unranked, global rank not yet assessed
SNA = state ranking not assigned
2 Totals may not sum due to rounding.

5.1.1 Creosote Bush Scrub
Creosote bush scrub, or the Larrea tridentata shrubland alliance, includes creosote bush as the dominant or co-dominant shrub in the canopy. If brittlebush (Encelia farinosa) is present, it is less than three times the cover of creosote bush, or if white bursage (Ambrosia dumosa) is present, it is less than two times the cover of creosote 703

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 18
AUGUST 2025
bush. Creosote bush scrub has an intermittent to open shrub canopy less than 3 meters (9.8 feet) in height and an herbaceous layer that is open to intermittent, with seasonal annuals or perennial grasses. This alliance is found in a variety of desert landforms, including alluvial fans, bajadas, upland slopes, and small intermittent washes on welldrained soils (CNPS 2025b).

Within the BSA, Larrea tridentata is present within the on-site project area (Figure 5). Other species observed in this community include desert twinbugs (Dicoria canescens), dyebush (Psorothamnus emoryi), cheesebush (Ambrosia salsola), small wirelettuce (Stephanomeria exigua), and herbaceous cover composed of Mediterranean grass (Schismus barbatus).

The creosote bush scrub alliance is ranked as a G5S5 alliance. This ranking indicates that globally and within California, the alliance is considered secure (NatureServe 2025). The association within the creosote bush scrub alliance mapped on site is the Larrea tridentata association. This association is also ranked as G5S5 and is therefore not considered a sensitive biological resource by CDFW under CEQA (CDFW 2025a). Sonoran creosote bush scrub is a covered natural community to be conserved in CVMSHCP Conservation Areas; therefore, no measures are required outside of Conservation Areas for this community (CVAG 2016).

5.1.2 Urban/Developed
Not recognized by the Natural Community List (CDFW 2025c), urban/developed land represents areas that have been constructed upon or otherwise physically altered to an extent that native vegetation communities are not supported. This land cover type generally consists of semi-permanent structures, homes, parking lots, pavement or hardscape, and landscaped areas that require maintenance and irrigation (e.g., ornamental greenbelts).

Typically, this land cover type is unvegetated or supports a variety of ornamental plants and landscaping (Oberbauer et al. 2008).

Urban/developed land is found exclusively within the off-site project areas and buffer of the BSA. This land cover consists of a remnant Santa Rosa Country Club parking lot and paved sidewalk in the west; paved roads; Frank Sinatra Drive, running east–west in the north; Portola Avenue, running north–south in the east; and ornamental plantings along both roads (Figure 5).

Urban/developed land is not a listed vegetation community in the California Natural Community List (CDFW 2025c), but it has been used in this report because it best describes what was observed in the field. As such, this community is not globally nor state-ranked and is not considered a sensitive natural community. Urban/developed land is not a CVMSHCP covered natural community.

5.2 Plants and Wildlife Observed

5.2.1 Plants
A total of 21 species of native or naturalized plants, 17 native (81%) and 4 non-native (19%), were recorded within the BSA. A comprehensive list of species is available in Appendix C, Plant Compendium. The diversity of plant species is low due to the urban setting and past disturbance within the BSA. 704

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 19
AUGUST 2025

5.2.2 Wildlife
A total of 15 wildlife species, including 14 native birds, and one native reptile, were recorded within the BSA. A comprehensive list of species is available in Appendix D, Wildlife Compendium.

5.3 Special-Status and Regulated Resources
Appendix E, Special-Status Plant Species Potentially Occurring within the Biological Survey Area, and Appendix F, Special-Status Wildlife Species Potentially Occurring within the Biological Survey Area, provide tables of all special-status species (plants and wildlife, respectively) whose geographic ranges fall within the general BSA vicinity. Special-status species’ potential to occur within the BSA were evaluated based on known species distribution, species-specific habitat preferences, and Dudek biologists’ knowledge of regional biological resources.

Species potentially occurring within the BSA are identified as having moderate or high potential to occur based on habitat conditions on site, and species for which there is little, or no suitable habitat are identified as not expected to occur or having low potential to occur.

5.3.1 Special-Status Plants
Special-status plants include those listed, or candidates for listing, as threatened or endangered by USFWS and CDFW, and species with a CRPR of 1 or 2. Dudek biologists performed an extensive desktop review of literature, existing documentation, and GIS data to evaluate the potential for special-status plant species to occur within the BSA. Each special-status plant species was assigned a rating of not expected, or low, moderate, or high potential to occur based on relative location to known occurrences, vegetation community, soil, and elevation.

Those special-status plant species that occur in the region but are not expected or have low potential to occur in the BSA due to a lack of suitable habitat or the BSA being located outside of the species’ known geographic or elevation range are also included in Appendix E; however, these species are not discussed further because no significant direct or indirect impacts to them are expected.

Based on the results of the literature review and database searches, 28 special-status plant species were reported in the CNDDB and CNPS databases as occurring in the nine USGS 7.5-minute quadrangles containing and surrounding the BSA. Focused surveys were conducted in April 2025. No special-status plant species were observed during the 2025 survey. There were no additional special-status plant species that were determined to have a moderate or high potential to occur within the BSA, based on the soils, vegetation communities (habitat) present, elevation range, and previous known locations based on the CNDDB and CNPS Inventory. All species were determined to have only a low potential to occur or were not expected to occur based on negative results of the 2025 focused survey or due the lack of suitable soils and vegetation communities (habitat) present, elevation range, and previous known locations based on the CNDDB and CNPS Inventory (Appendix E).

In addition, there is no USFWS-designated critical habitat for listed plant species overlapping the BSA (USFWS 2025c).

5.3.2 Special-Status Wildlife
Special-status wildlife include those listed, or candidates for listing, as threatened or endangered by USFWS and CDFW, and those designated as fully protected or Species of Special Concern by CDFW and as sensitive by USFWS.

Similar to special-status plants, Dudek biologists performed an extensive desktop review of literature, existing 705

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 20
AUGUST 2025
documentation, and GIS data to evaluate the potential for special-status wildlife species to occur within the BSA.

Each special-status wildlife species was assigned a rating of not expected, or low, moderate, or high potential to occur based on relative location to known occurrences and vegetation community/habitat association. Listed species with any potential to occur and non-listed special-status species with a moderate or higher potential to occur are discussed herein. Those special-status wildlife species that are not state or federally listed and are not expected or have low potential to occur in the BSA are also included in Appendix F; however, these species are not discussed further because no significant direct or indirect impacts are expected.

Based on the results of the literature review and database searches, 29 special-status wildlife species were reported in the CNDDB and USFWS databases as occurring in the vicinity of the BSA. Of these 29 species, two special-status wildlife species were determined to have a low potential to occur within the BSA based on habitat present and/or the BSA’s proximity to previous known locations in CNDDB records: burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia) and Crotch’s bumble bee (Bombus crotchii). Additionally, loggerhead shrike (Lanius ludovicianus) was observed within the BSA during biological field surveys. These species are detailed in the following discussion and presented below in Table 3.

There is no USFWS-designated critical habitat for listed wildlife species overlapping the BSA (USFWS 2025c).

Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (CVAG 2016) Covered: Take of species permitted under CVMSHCP
Burrowing Owl
This species is a state candidate for listing as threatened or endangered under the California Endangered Species Act and is covered under the CVMSHCP. The open scrub within the BSA provides suitable nesting and foraging habitat for burrowing owl; however, no burrows greater than 4 inches in diameter were observed, the compacted areas minimized the amount of potential nesting habitat available, and no burrowing owls or sign (e.g., whitewash, pellets, feathers) were observed. The burrowing owl is an opportunistic species that can move onto a site once a suitable burrow is established and is unoccupied by another species. Therefore, there is still at least low potential for this species to occur within the BSA. This species is covered under the CVMSHCP. Therefore, any loss of suitable habitat would be mitigated through payment of the CVMSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee as further described in Section 6, CVMSHCP Consistency Analysis. Additionally, this species is protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and California Fish and Game Code Section 3516, which protects nesting birds. Therefore, due to the presence of suitable habitat, a pre-construction burrowing owl survey will be required prior to any development of the site, as further discussed in Section 7.3.1.2, Impacts to Special-Status Wildlife.

Loggerhead Shrike
This species is not covered under the CVMSHCP and is a California Species of Special Concern. This special-status ranking is limited to nesting populations that have a low potential to occur within the BSA (Appendix F). However, loggerhead shrike is protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and California Fish and Game Code Section 3516, which protects nesting birds. Therefore, should future development occur during the nesting season (generally February 1 through August 31) nesting bird surveys would be required prior to any development on the site, and impacts to nests must be avoided, as further discussed in Section 7.3.1.2. 707

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 22
AUGUST 2025
Crotch’s Bumble Bee
This species is not covered under the CVMSHCP and is a state candidate for listing as endangered. The open scrub within the BSA provides suitable habitat for Crotch’s bumble bee. Although minimal plant species were observed during the field visit, the results of the survey do not accurately represent the floral resources on site because the survey was conducted outside of the bloom period. Therefore, this species has a low potential to occur within the BSA (Appendix F). Nesting is primarily located underground in abandoned holes made by ground squirrels, mice, and rats, but may be above ground in abandoned bird nests or empty cavities (Osborne et al. 2008; Williams et al. 2014). Because the site may contain potential nests (abandoned holes, etc.) prior to any development on the site, and take of nest must be avoided, a pre-construction nest survey would be required, as further discussed in Section 7.3.1.2.

5.4 Wildlife Corridors and Habitat Linkages
Wildlife corridors are linear features that connect large patches of natural open space and provide avenues for the migration of animals. Habitat linkages are small patches that join larger blocks of habitat and help reduce the adverse effects of habitat fragmentation; they may be continuous habitat or discrete habitat islands that function as stepping-stones for wildlife dispersal.

The BSA is not mapped as a wildlife corridor or habitat linkage under the CVMSHCP (Figure 2). The BSA is surrounded by development that extends for at least 2 miles in all directions, aside from a few other fragmented undeveloped lots. As such, wildlife movement within the BSA is unlikely. As such, the potential for wildlife corridors and linkages is not considered a biological constraint to future development of the site.

5.5 Potentially Jurisdictional Aquatic Features
Although a formal jurisdictional delineation was not conducted, the BSA was inspected during the due diligence survey for any evidence of streams that appear in the National Hydrography Dataset or of wetlands in the National Wetlands Inventory (USGS 2025b; USFWS 2025b). The BSA does not include any National Hydrography Dataset or National Wetlands Inventory mapped resources (Figure 4). The nearest National Hydrography Dataset or National Wetlands Inventory mapped resource is a dried freshwater pond approximately 220 feet to the west of the BSA (USGS 2025b; USFWS 2025b). No potentially jurisdictional aquatic resources were observed within the BSA. 708

AUGUST 2025
6 CVMSHCP Consistency Analysis
As discussed in Section 2.3.1, Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan, of this report, the project occurs within the boundaries of the CVMSHCP Plan Area. Compliance with the CVMSHCP provides permittees with take authorization for covered species for all covered activities.

The lead agency for the project is the City of Palm Desert (City), which is a permittee of the CVMSHCP. Covered activities are listed in Section 7.0 of the CVMSHCP. As previously stated, the project is located outside of a designated CVMSHCP Conservation Area. Covered activities outside of Conservation Areas include all development permitted or approved by local permittees; therefore, the proposed project is a covered activity under the CVMSHCP.

6.1 CVMSHCP Section 4.0: Establishment of the MSHCP
Reserve System
Section 4.0 et seq. of the CVMSHCP contains the MSHCP Reserve System, which sets conservation goals and objectives to ensure the conservation of covered species and conserved natural communities in the MSHCP Reserve System.

Section 4.3 of the CVMSHCP sets for conservation objectives and required measures for the Conservation Areas, and Section 4.4 identifies avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures for covered activities within Conservation Areas. Given the project is not located within a Conservation Area, these measures do not apply.

Section 4.5 of the CVMSHCP provides Land Use Adjacency Guidelines (LUAGs) for new land uses adjacent to Conservation Areas. The project is not located adjacent to a Conservation Area. The nearest Conservation Area, the Thousand Palms Conservation Area, is approximately 2 miles northwest project, on the opposite side of the Interstate 10 freeway.

Therefore, the project is consistent with Section 4.0 of the CVMSHCP with payment of the CVMSHCP local development mitigation fees.

6.2 CVMSHCP Section 9.0: Species
Conservation Measures
Section 9.0 of the CVMSHCP sets forth species-specific conservation goals and objectives for each of the covered species. These conservation goals and objectives are specific to conservations; however, the project is not located in a Conservation Area. Nonetheless, no CVMSHCP-covered species were determined to have at least a moderate potential to occur within the BSA; therefore, any additional avoidance, minimization, or mitigation measures set forth by the species-specific conservation goals and objectives are not applicable to this project.

The CVMSHCP shows modeled habitat overlapping the BSA within the northeastern and southeastern corners of the BSA for the following species: Palm Springs pocket mouse (Perognathus longimembris bangsi), flat-tailed horned lizard (Phrynosoma mcallii), LeConte’s thrasher (Toxostoma lecontei), Coachella Valley giant sand treader cricket (Macrobaenetes valgum), Coachella Valley fringe-toed lizard (Uma inornata), Palm Springs round-tailed 709

AUGUST 2025
ground squirrel (also known as Coachella Valley round-tailed ground squirrel) (Spermophilus (Xerospermophilus) tereticaudus chlorus), and Coachella Valley milk-vetch (Astragalus lentiginosus var. coachellae). None of these species were detected within the BSA during field efforts and, as addressed above, none of these species were determined to have at least a moderate potential to occur within the BSA.

Section 9.0 of the CVMSHCP does not identify any avoidance, minimization, or mitigation measures for areas outside of the Conservation Areas. As such, the project is consistent with Section 9.0 of the CVMSHCP.

6.3 CVMSHCP Section 10.0: Natural Community
Conservation Measures
Section 10.0 of the CVMSHCP sets forth conservation goals and objectives for each of the Covered Natural Communities. The BSA does not occur within a Conservation Area in which these conservation goals and objectives apply. Therefore, the project is consistent with Section 10.0 of the CVMSHCP.

With the implementation of the regulatory requirements listed in Section 8, Avoidance, Minimization, and Regulatory Requirements, of this report, and through payment of the CVMSHCP local development mitigation fees, the project is consistent with the CVMSHCP.

7 Project Impacts
This section addresses direct and indirect impacts to biological resources that would result from implementation of the project and provides the significance determinations for proposed or potential impacts.

7.1 Explanation of Findings of Significance
Impacts to special-status vegetation communities, plant and wildlife species, and jurisdictional waters, including wetlands, must be quantified and analyzed to determine whether such impacts are significant under CEQA. CEQA Guidelines Section 15064(b) states that an ironclad definition of “significant” effect is not possible, because the significance of an activity may vary with the setting. CEQA Guidelines Appendix G, however, does provide “examples of consequences which may be deemed to be a significant effect on the environment” (14 CCR 15064[e]). These effects include substantial effects on rare or endangered species of animal or plant or on the habitat of the species.

CEQA Guidelines Section 15065(a) is also helpful in defining whether a project may have a significant effect on the environment. Under that section, a proposed project may have a significant effect on the environment if the project has the potential to (1) substantially degrade the quality of the environment; (2) substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species; (3) cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels; (4) threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community; (5) reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal; or (6) eliminate important examples of a major period of California history or prehistory.

The following are the significance thresholds for biological resources provided in the CEQA Guidelines Appendix G Environmental Checklist, which states that a project would potentially have a significant effect if it does any of the following:

Impact BIO-1 Has a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as being a candidate, sensitive, or special-status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by CDFW or USFWS.

Impact BIO-2 Has a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by CDFW or USFWS.

Impact BIO-3 Has a substantial adverse effect on state or federally protected wetlands (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means.

Impact BIO-4 Interferes substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impedes the use of native wildlife nursery sites.

Impact BIO-5 Conflicts with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a tree preservation policy or ordinance.

Impact BIO-6 Conflicts with the provisions of an adopted habitat conservation plan, natural community conservation plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan. 711

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 26
AUGUST 2025
The evaluation of whether an impact to a particular biological resource is significant must consider both the resource itself and the role of that resource in a regional context. Substantial impacts are those that contribute to, or result in, permanent loss of an important resource, such as a population of a special-status plant or wildlife species. Impacts may be important locally because they result in an adverse alteration of existing site conditions but considered not significant because they do not contribute substantially to the permanent loss of that resource regionally. The severity of an impact is the primary determinant of whether that impact can be mitigated to a level below significance.

7.2 Definition of Impacts
This section addresses potential impacts (permanent, direct, and indirect), as defined below, to special-status biological resources that could result from implementation of the project. CEQA significance threshold and potential impacts are discussed on Section 7.3, Impacts Analysis, and applicable regulatory requirements are presented in Section 8.

Direct impacts refer to complete loss of a biological resource. For purposes of this report, it refers to the area where vegetation clearing, grubbing, or grading replaces biological resources. Direct impacts were quantified by overlaying the proposed impact limits on the biological resources map of the BSA. Direct impacts would occur from construction of a 159-lot single-family residential development, associated improvements, stormwater retention infrastructure, including three retention basins, utility connections, landscaping and open space, and internal roadways. All on-site and off-site direct impacts are considered permanent.

Indirect impacts are reasonably foreseeable effects caused by a project’s implementation on remaining or adjacent biological resources outside the direct disturbance zone. For purposes of this report, indirect impacts may affect areas outside the disturbance. Indirect impacts may be short-term and construction-related, or long-term and associated with development in proximity to biological resources.

Cumulative impacts refer to the combined environmental effects of a project and other relevant projects. These impacts may be minor when analyzed individually but become collectively significant as they occur over time.

Cumulative impacts are addressed in the project’s environmental impact report.

The evaluation of project impacts is organized below using Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines.

7.3 Impacts Analysis
A total of 32.6 acres of permanently impacted area will occur with the implementation of the project. The acreage of impacts to vegetation communities and land cover types within the BSA is provided in Table 4. Figure 6, Biological Resources Impacts, depicts the areas where impacts to vegetation communities and land cover types are anticipated to occur.

7.3.1 Impact BIO-1: Special-Status Species

7.3.1.1 Impacts to Special-Status Plants
Direct Impacts
No special-status plant species were observed or have high or moderate potential to occur within the BSA; therefore, the project would have no direct impacts to special-status plant species. In addition, the BSA does not occur within federally designated critical habitat for special-status plant species, and there would be no direct impacts to critical habitat.

Indirect Impacts
The project would have no indirect impacts to non-listed, special-status plant species within the BSA. Further, standard best management practices will be implemented to address potential impacts to special-status plants that may exist outside the limits of the BSA, but which may be indirectly impacted by project implementation.

7.3.1.2 Impacts to Special-Status Wildlife
One special-status wildlife, loggerhead shrike, was observed during field efforts, and two special-status wildlife species, burrowing owl and Crotch’s bumble bee, were determined to have a low potential to occur within the BSA based on known species distribution, species-specific habitat preferences, and habitat conditions on the BSA. Of these, only burrowing owl is covered by the CVMSHCP. Impacts to these species are further discussed below. The BSA does not occur within federally designated critical habitat for special-status wildlife species; therefore, no impacts to critical habitat would occur with project implementation.

Direct Impacts
Loggerhead Shrike
Loggerhead shrike was observed within the BSA during the spring 2025 biological field surveys. While the BSA contains suitable open habitat for foraging, it lacks dense thorny vegetation necessary for nesting (Humple 2008).

The project would result in 32.6 acres of permanent impacts to suitable foraging habitat for loggerhead shrike.

Direct impacts to loggerhead shrike individuals from construction are generally unlikely due to the amount of suitable nesting and foraging habitat occurring within the surrounding region, as well as its high mobility and access to adjacent habitat. Furthermore, with consistency with the CVMSHCP, including payment of the CVMSHCP local development mitigation fee (MM BR-1), suitable nesting and foraging habitats will be conserved for this species under the CVMSHCP. While it is not likely that this species would nest within the BSA, implementation of MM BR-2 would ensure potential direct impacts remain less than significant through performance of a nesting bird survey if vegetation is removed during the nesting season (generally February 15 through August 31), in addition to avoidance buffers and monitoring if active nests are found. Therefore, direct impacts to nesting loggerhead shrike would be less than significant with MM BR-1 and MM BR-2 incorporated. 714

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 29
AUGUST 2025
Burrowing Owl
While the BSA contains suitable open habitat for foraging, no suitable burrows, sign, or individuals were observed during the 2025 field visit. However, the project would result in 32.6 acres of permanent impacts to suitable habitat for burrowing owl.

With consistency with the CVMSHCP, including payment of the CVMSHCP local development mitigation fee (MM-BR-1), suitable nesting and foraging habitats will be conserved for this species under the CVMSHCP. However, due to the presence of suitable habitat, and because this species can colonize the BSA prior to construction, a preconstruction survey is required to determine presence/absence of the species (MM BR-2). Pre-construction surveys for burrowing owls shall be completed in accordance with the Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation (CDFW 2012), with the first survey no less than 14 days prior to initiation of project-related activities and the second within 24 hours of project-related activities. If an active burrowing owl burrow is detected within 500 feet of the impact footprint, avoidance and minimization measures shall be implemented in accordance with the Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation guidelines or agreed upon by CDFW, including implementation of a non-disturbance buffer and monitoring of the nest to ensure activities are not adversely affecting the nest. If the project will occur within this zone, then work must occur outside the nesting season or until it can be shown that the birds have finished nesting. Therefore, direct impacts to burrowing owl would be less than significant with MM BR-1 and MM-BR-2 incorporated.

Crotch’s Bumble Bee
A pre-construction nest survey for Crotch’s bumble bee in accordance with CDFW’s Survey Considerations for California Endangered Species Act (CESA) Candidate Bumble Bee Species (CDFW 2023) is recommended to avoid take of a nest. It is recommended that vegetation clearing and grubbing shall be conducted outside of the Crotch’s bumble bee nesting season (February 1 through October 31) to avoid loss of a nest. If avoidance of the Crotch’s bumble bee nesting period is not feasible, and ground-disturbing construction activities occur during the Crotch’s bumble bee nesting period (February 1 through October 31), then a qualified biologist shall conduct a one-time preconstruction survey focused on active Crotch’s bumble bee nests prior to commencing project activities to detect bumble bees and potential nesting sites. If an active Crotch’s bumble bee nest is found within the survey area, the nest will be flagged, and work shall not commence within 50 feet of the active nest until the nest is no longer active (typically September or October) to avoid take of Crotch’s bumble bee.

Nesting Birds
The BSA contains suitable habitat for native nesting birds. Native nesting bird species are protected by California Fish and Game Code Sections 3503 and 3503.5 and by the federal MBTA (16 USC 703–711). In particular, California Fish and Game Code Section 3503 provides that it is unlawful to take, possess, or needlessly destroy the active nests or eggs of any bird in California; Section 3503.5 protects all raptors and their eggs and active nests; and the MBTA prohibits the take (including killing, capturing, selling, trading, and transport) of native migratory bird species throughout the United States. Currently, California considers any nest that is under construction or modification or is supporting eggs, nestlings, or juveniles as “active.” Therefore, impacts to nesting migratory birds and raptors would be considered significant absent avoidance and minimization measures under CEQA.

Project implementation of MM BR-2 would ensure potential direct impacts remain at a less-than-significant level by conducting a pre-construction nesting bird survey by a qualified biologist prior to vegetation removal if vegetation is removed during the nesting bird season (February 15 through August 31 for most bird species; and January 1 through 715

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 30
AUGUST 2025
August 31 for raptors), as well as avoidance buffers and monitoring if active nests are found. Therefore, direct impacts to nesting birds would be less than significant with MM BR-2 incorporated.

Indirect Impacts
The BSA is bordered by urban development (i.e., roads, residential areas, and golf courses) on all sides. While the lot immediately to the west of the BSA is currently undeveloped, it too is bordered by development for at least 2 miles in all directions. Therefore, indirect impacts to special-status wildlife species from construction-related noise, vibration, and lighting are not anticipated. Substantial long-term impacts due to noise, lighting, and traffic collisions to wildlife are not expected.

7.3.2 Impact BIO-2: Sensitive Vegetation Communities
Direct Impacts
As stated in Section 5.1, Vegetation Communities and Land Covers, CDFW state rankings of 1, 2, or 3 are considered high priority for inventory or special status, and impacts to these communities typically require mitigation. The BSA does not contain any vegetation communities that are considered a sensitive biological resource by CDFW under CEQA; therefore, no direct impacts to special-status vegetation communities are anticipated, and no avoidance or compensatory mitigation measures are required.

Indirect Impacts
The project would have no indirect impacts to vegetation communities that are considered a sensitive biological resource by CDFW under CEQA. However, standard best management practices will address potential impacts to vegetation communities that are considered a sensitive biological resource by CDFW under CEQA that may exist outside the limits of the BSA but that may be indirectly impacted by project implementation.

7.3.3 Impact BIO-3: State or Federally Protected Waters Direct Impacts
As discussed in Section 5.5, Potentially Jurisdictional Aquatic Features, the BSA was inspected in 2025 for any evidence of streams that appear in the National Hydrography Dataset or of wetlands in the National Wetlands Inventory (USGS 2025b; USFWS 2025b). No potentially jurisdictional aquatic resources were observed within the BSA, therefore, no direct or impacts to regulated waters are expected with project implementation.

Indirect Impacts
The project would have no indirect impacts to state- or federally protected wetlands or non-wetland waters.

However, standard best management practices will address potential impacts to state- or federally protected wetlands or non-wetland waters that may exist outside the limits of the BSA but that may be indirectly impacted by project implementation.
716

AUGUST 2025

7.3.4 Impact BIO-4: Wildlife Corridors and Habitat Linkages Direct Impacts
As discussed in Section 5.4, Wildlife Corridors and Habitat Linkages, of this report, the BSA is not located within a corridor or linkage as identified in the CVMSHCP (Figure 2). Additionally, the BSA is surrounded by development that extends for at least 2 miles in all directions, aside from a few other fragmented undeveloped lots. As such, project implementation is unlikely to result in any disruption to wildlife movement in the region. Additionally, construction would only occur during the daytime, so wildlife could still pass through the area at night. Any impact to wildlife movement would be limited to the construction period and therefore would be temporary. Therefore, implementation of the project would not substantially alter wildlife movement.

Indirect Impacts
The BSA is not located within a corridor or linkage as identified in the CVMSHCP (Figure 2). Furthermore, no longterm edge effects to a corridor or linkage, such as noise or lighting, would occur with Project implementation. Thus, no significant indirect impacts to wildlife corridors or habitat linkages would occur.

7.3.5 Impact BIO-5: Associated with Local Policies and Ordinances The Palm Desert General Plan contains several elements that were established to address potential impacts to biological resources. Specifically, the Environmental Resources Element establishes open space and habitat conservation goals, and policies that address potential impacts to candidate, sensitive, or special-status species and their habitats. The City is a permittee of the CVMSHCP; therefore, compliance with the CVMSHCP provides permittees with take authorization for covered species for all covered activities, which include development outside of CVMSHCP Conservation Areas. Therefore, the project is a covered activity, and compliance with the CVMSHCP would provide take authorization for covered species. Furthermore, the project is generally surrounded by existing developed lands (Frank Sinatra Drive and residential areas to the north, Portola Avenue and the Desert Willow Golf Resort to the east, and the Palm Desert Greens County Club to the west and south), and would not conflict with City policies outlined in Section 2.3.2, City of Palm Desert, of this report.

The project complies with all local policies and ordinances; therefore, there the project would not result in significant impacts based on compliance with local policies or ordinances.

7.3.6 Impact BIO-6: Habitat Conservation Plans

7.3.6.1 Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan As discussed in Section 2.3.1, the project occurs within the boundaries of the CVMSHCP Plan Area. Compliance with the CVMSHCP provides permittees with take authorization for covered species for all covered activities. The lead agency for the project is the City, which is a permittee of the CVMSHCP. Covered activities are listed in Section

7.0 of the CVMSHCP. The project is located outside of CVMSHCP Conservation Areas. Covered activities outside of Conservation Areas include all development permitted or approved by local permittees; therefore, the proposed project is a covered activity under the CVMSHCP.
717

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 32
AUGUST 2025
Section 4.3 of the CVMSHCP sets forth conservation objectives and required measures for the Conservation Areas, and Section 4.4 identifies avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures for covered activities within Conservation Areas. The project is not located within a Conservation Area; therefore, these measures do not apply.

Section 4.5 of the CVMSHCP provides LUAGs for new land uses adjacent to Conservation Areas. The BSA is not located adjacent to a Conservation Area.

There is CVMSHCP modeled habitat overlapping the BSA; however, all modeled habitat species were determined to have a low potential to occur or are not expected to occur. In addition, Section 9.0 of the CVMSHCP does not identify any avoidance, minimization, or mitigation measures for areas outside of the Conservation Areas.

Section 10.0 of the CVMSHCP sets forth conservation goals and objectives for each of the Covered Natural Communities. Portions of the northwest part of the BSA are mapped as Stabilized Shielded Desert Sand Fields.

Goal 2 for this natural community calls for the protection of Essential Ecological Process, specifically sand source/transport system. The BSA does not occur within any Essential Ecological Sand Transport and Sand Source Areas identified in the CVMSHCP. Therefore, the project is consistent with Section 10.0 of the CVMSHCP.

With the implementation of the regulatory requirements listed in Section 8 of this report, the project is consistent with the CVMSHCP.
718
18192.02 33
AUGUST 2025
8 Avoidance, Minimization, and
Regulatory Requirements
The project is within the CVMSHCP; however, it is not located within any CVMSHCP Conservation Areas. A fee is required for all projects located within the CVMSHCP plan area. With payment of this fee (MM BR-1), the project would be consistent with the CVMSHCP.

The BSA contains suitable habitat for native nesting birds. Native nesting bird species are protected by California Fish and Game Code Sections 3503 and 3503.5 and by the federal MBTA (16 USC 703–711). In particular, California Fish and Game Code Section 3503 provides that it is unlawful to take, possess, or needlessly destroy the active nests or eggs of any bird in California; Section 3503.5 protects all raptors and their eggs and active nests; and the MBTA prohibits the take (including killing, capturing, selling, trading, and transporting) of native migratory bird species throughout the United States. Currently, California considers any nest that is under construction or modification or is supporting eggs, nestlings, or juveniles as “active.” Therefore, the project would implement measures to avoid and minimize impacts to biological resources, including those required by laws, regulations, and policies (regulatory requirements). The applicable measures (MMs) referenced previously above are described below.

MM BR-1: Prior to construction and issuance of any grading permit, the City of Palm Desert shall ensure compliance with the CVMSHCP and its associated Implementing Agreement and shall ensure that payment of the CVMSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee for the proposed Project is sent to the Coachella Valley Conservation Commission.

MM BR-2: The project proponent shall ensure that burrowing owl clearance survey is performed not more than 14 days prior to project site disturbance (clearing, grubbing, grading, construction). If any owls are identified, the most current protocol established by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (Burrowing Owl Mitigation) must be followed. It is also recommended that a survey take place 24 hours prior to ground disturbance as burrowing owls may colonize or recolonize the site within the time between the original survey and project activities.

If construction activities are to take place during the avian nesting season or breeding season (February 15 through August 31 for most bird species; and January 1 through August 31 for raptors), a pre-construction survey for nesting bird species, including raptors, shall be conducted within 3 days prior to vegetation removal. The survey will identify any active nesting by specialstatus birds on the project site or within 200 feet of the project boundary. If active nests of specialstatus birds are present in the impact area or within 200 feet of the edge of construction area, a qualified biologist shall prescribe avoidance measures to be approved by the City Palm Desert including, but not limited to, establishing a construction buffer until the nesting activity is concluded. The type of species, nesting stage, surrounding topography, existing conditions, and type of construction activity will determine the appropriate avoidance measures.

It should be noted also that under California Fish and Game Code 3503 and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, no active nests, eggs, or young of native birds can be directly disturbed. For non-special719

PORTOLA SPRINGS RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT / BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES TECHNICAL REPORT 18192.02 34
AUGUST 2025
status species, the qualified biologist will work with the construction contractor to ensure that no active bird nests are directly disturbed as a result of the project.

A pre-construction survey for Crotch’s bumble bee shall occur within the construction area where suitable habitat has been identified during the primary flight period for workers and males (March 1 through June 30) prior to the start of construction activities. The survey shall ensure that no nests for Crotch’s bumble bee are located within the construction area. Crotch’s bumble bee is a habitat generalist, ground-nesting bee. Surveys and other relevant recommendations shall be in accordance with the most recent protocol available at the time of the surveys.

If nest resources occupied by Crotch’s bumble bee are detected within the construction area, no construction activities shall occur within 100 feet of the occupied nest resources, or as determined by a qualified biologist through evaluation of topographic features or distribution of floral resources.

The nest resources shall be avoided for the duration of the Crotch’s bumble bee nesting period (February 1 through October 31). Outside of the nesting season, it is assumed that no live individuals would be present within the nest, because the daughter queens (gynes) usually leave by September, and all other individuals (original queen, workers, males) die. The gynes are highly mobile and can independently disperse to outside the construction footprint to the proposed open space or other suitable areas beyond that have suitable hibernaculum resources. Because construction will have occurred in the area outside the occupied nesting resources, no suitable habitat will be present in the impact area, and it is assumed that new queens will disperse to habitat outside the construction area.

Appendix A: SCIC Records Search Confirmation
Appendix B: NAHC Results
This letter summarizes the known cultural resources constraints for the approximately 19-acre Catavina East Development (Project), located in the City of Palm Desert, Riverside County, California (Figure 1). The Project area is located on Assessor Parcel Numbers (APN) 620-400-030 and 620-400-031, southwest of the intersection of Frank Sinatra Drive and Portola Avenue, in the City of Palm Desert, California (Figure 2). CRM Tech prepared a Historical/Archaeological Resource Survey Report for the Project in April 2022 (CRM 2022). Due to COVID restrictions at the time, CRM relied on records search data from adjacent projects collected in 2018. The current efforts include an updated records search of information housed at the South Coastal Information Center (SCIC) for the Project area and the 1.0-mile search radius of the Project area, an update search of the Sacred Lands File by the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC), and a review of historic aerial photographs and historic topographic maps. The archival review identified no archaeological resources within the Project area. Based on the records search results and archival review, Dudek concurs with CRM’s (2022) finding that impacts to archaeological resources would be less than significant.
1 Records Search
Dudek conducted a records search of data on file at the SCIC for the Project area and a one-mile buffer on February 10, 2025. The purpose of the records search is to identify any previously recorded cultural resources that may be located within the Property. In addition to a review of previously prepared EIRs, permit application packages, site records, and reports, the records search will also review historical maps of the Project area and vicinity, ethnographies, the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), the California Register of Historical Resources 773

The results of the records search are on file at Dudek. The SCIC records search confirmation is provided in Appendix A.

1.1 Previously Recorded Cultural Resources
The SCIC records search results revealed that no previously identified cultural resources intersect the Project area, however, seven cultural resources are located within the 1.0-mile search radius of the Project area. Table 1 below summarizes the cultural resources within 1.0-mile search radius of the Project area.

1.2 Previous Cultural Resource Studies
The records search identified 14 previous studies that have been performed within 1.0-mile search radius of the Project area. Of the 14 previous studies, four of the studies have addressed at least a portion of the Project area (Table 2). Of the four previous studies, three are phase 1 cultural resources studies and one is an identification and evaluation of historic properties study. One of these studies was for the existing Project area (CRM 2022) and covers 100% of the current Project area. None of these studies identified previously recorded cultural resources within the Project area.

CRM Tech prepared a Historical/Archaeological Resource Survey Report in April 2022 utilizing information from a past CRM Tech Phase I cultural resources survey completed in 2006. CRM Tech also submitted a written Sacred Lands File request to the NAHC for information pertaining to known Native American cultural resources. The NAHC reply stated that the Sacred Lands File identified no such resources in or near the project area. In addition, the 2022 field survey produced negative results and records searched indicate that no cultural resources had been identified within the project area or within a one-mile radius. CRM concluded that impacts to archaeological resources would be less than significant.
2 Sacred Lands File Search Results
Dudek requested a NAHC search of their Sacred Lands File on February 2, 2025 for the Project area and one-mile radius.

The NAHC responded via email on February 18, 2025 and the results were negative. A list of traditionally culturally affiliated Native American tribal representatives who may have additional information related to cultural resources within the Project area was provided as part of this search. Dudek did not contact the Native American contacts provided by the NAHC. The NAHC results are included in Appendix B.
3 Archival Map and Photo Review
Historic topographic maps and aerial photographs of the Project area were reviewed at historicaerials.com (NETR 2025) in order to assess land use and development changes over time. Historic photographs are available since 1959. The aerial imagery from 1959 reveals the Project area as undeveloped, while Interstate-10 is developed to 776

the north of the Project area. Between 1972 and 1977, there are no substantial changes to the Project area; however, there is a steady increase of residential development within the general vicinity of the Project area. The aerial imagery from 1979 reveals there are no substantial changes to the Project area; however, there is construction activity for the Santa Rosa Golf Course west of the Project area. By 1984, the aerial imagery reveals the developed Santa Rosa Golf Course and residential community west of the Project area. By 1996, the aerial imagery shows the development of Frank Sinatra Drive to the north and Portola Avenue to the east as developed.

The aerial imagery from 2002 reveals the there are no substantial changes to the Project area, however, there is a steady increase of development for residential properties and the Desert Willow Golf Course to the east of the Project area. The aerial imagery from 2009 reveals construction activity for residential properties north of the Project area. No substantial changes are seen within the Project area and general vicinity of the Project area in the 2010 aerial imagery. By 2014, the residential properties are developed north of the Project area. The aerial imagery from 2016 looks similar to the present-day conditions.

Historic topographic (topo) maps of the Project area are available from the years of 1944 to 2021 (NETR 2025).

There are no historic-age structures located within the Project area. The Project area remains undeveloped and vacant.
4 Recommendations
The SCIC records search results found no previously recorded archaeological resources within the Project area, however, seven archaeological resources are located within the 1.0-mile search radius of the Project area. The entire Project area (100%) was previously studied in 2022. Based on the negative records search results and archival review, Dudek concurs with CRM’s (2022) finding that impacts to archaeological resources would be less than significant..

Re: Catavina East Project, Riverside County
To Whom It May Concern:

As requested, a record search of the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) Sacred Lands File (SLF) was completed based on information submitted for the above referenced project. The results were negative. Please note that tribes do not always record their sacred sites in the SLF, nor are they required to do so. As such, a SLF search is not a substitute for consultation with all tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with a project’s geographic area.

Attached is a list of Native American tribes who may also have knowledge of cultural resources in the project area. This list should provide a starting place in locating areas of potential adverse impact within the proposed project area. Please contact all of those listed; if they cannot supply information, they may recommend others with specific knowledge. If within two weeks of notification, a response has not been received, the Commission requests that you follow-up with a telephone call or email to ensure that the project information was received.

If you receive notification of a change of address or phone number from a tribe, please notify the NAHC so that we can assure that our lists contain current information.

In addition to engaging in tribal consultation, you should consult the appropriate regional California Historical Research Information System (CHRIS) archaeological Information Center to determine whether it has information regarding the presence of recorded archaeological sites within the project area.

If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at [email protected].

Sincerely,
Andrew Green

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
GEOTEK, INC. (GEOTEK) has performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) for Assessor’s Parcel Numbers (APNs) 620-400-030 and -031 (the “Site”), located in the City of Palm Desert, Riverside County, California. GEOTEK’S services were conducted in substantial conformance with the scope and limitations of the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) E 1527-21, “Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process”, which is approved to meet the requirements of the federal All Appropriate Inquiries (AAI) standards as set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Section 312 (40 CFR 312), and GEOTEK Proposal No. P-0101225-CR, dated January 6, 2025.

Any additions or deletions from the scope of services are discussed in the appropriate sections of this assessment.

A representative of GEOTEK conducted a Site reconnaissance on January 14, 2025. The weather was cool, and the sky was clear. The almost-triangular shaped Site is currently comprised of two (2) parcels of land (Riverside County Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 620-400- 030 and -031). The Site parcels encompass a total of approximately 17.63 acres. The Site can generally be accessed from Frank Sinatra Drive to the north or Portola Avenue to the east.

The Site is currently vacant land; however, remnant irrigation lines were observed along the western portion of the Site. Power lines and a utility easement are located immediately west of the Site. Visual evidence of hazardous substances and wastes was not observed during the Site reconnaissance. No visual indication of spills or leaks were observed. No pungent or acrid odors were observed emanating from the Site.

The Site is in an area largely characterized by residential development, golf courses and vacant land. The Site is bound by Frank Sinatra Drive, followed by residential development to the north. Portola Avenue, followed by the Desert Willow Golf Resort Maintenance Department, a stormwater basin, residential development and the Desert Willow Golf Resort, bound the Site to the east. Power lines and a utility easement, followed by an abandoned golf course, bound the Site to the west. An abandoned golf course bounds the Site to the south. None of the adjoining properties appear to represent a recognized environmental condition or environmental concern to the Site.

The Site does not appear on the environmental database report obtained for this assessment.

There are two (2) adjoining facilities listed in the database report within the various search distances specified by ASTM E 1527-21. Due to the nature of the listings; lack of current violations, spills or leaks; investigations or clean-ups; and/or locations hydro-geologically down794 Blue Fern West, LLC Project No. 4186-CR
Catavina East Project January 17, 2025
Palm Desert, Riverside County, California Page ES-2
gradient, it is GEOTEK’S opinion that these facilities have not created a recognized environmental condition to the Site.

There are no other facilities listed in the database report within the various search distances specified by ASTM E 1527-21.

Based on readily available historical information, the Site appears to have been vacant land since at least 1953 to the present.

The surrounding properties appear to be vacant land from at least 1953 until at least 1972. The golf course can first be observed to the west of the Site in an aerial photograph dated 1984.

The golf course to the east can first be observed in an aerial photograph dated 1996. The Desert Willow Golf Resort Maintenance facility can first be observed to the east of the Site in an aerial photograph dated 2002. Residential development to the north of the Site can first be observed in an aerial photograph dated 2006. Residential development to the east of the Site can first be observed in an aerial photograph dated 2020. The surrounding properties appear similar to current conditions in an aerial photograph dated 2024.

This executive summary does not contain all the information that is found in the full report.

The report should be read in its entirety to obtain a more complete understanding of the information provided and to aid in any decisions made or actions taken based on this information.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
GEOTEK, INC. (GEOTEK) has performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) for Assessor’s Parcel Numbers (APNs) 620-400-030 and -031 (the “Site”), located in the City of Palm Desert, Riverside County, California.

1.1 PURPOSE
The purpose of this Phase I ESA was to identify and evaluate actual and potential environmental conditions involving the subject Site. It was not the purpose of this assessment to determine the degree or extent of contamination, if any, but rather the potential for contamination.

1.2 SCOPE OF WORK
The Phase I ESA is a general characterization of environmental concerns based on reasonably ascertainable information and observations. GEOTEK performed the Phase I ESA in substantial accordance with ASTM Standard E 1527-21. The following services were provided for the assessment:
▪ A reconnaissance of the Site and surrounding properties to visually assess current utilization and indications of potential surface contamination. This was accomplished by driving the Site boundaries, and then traversing the Site until the entire Site had been surveyed.
▪ A reconnaissance of the surrounding area for approximately one-half mile was conducted, without entering the properties, making observations concerning property uses, conditions, and housekeeping.
▪ Interviews were conducted, either in person, via telephone, or via a written questionnaire(s) with the client representative, the seller’s representative, and/or appropriate regulatory agency personnel.
▪ A review of the geologic and hydro-geologic settings was conducted using reasonably ascertainable public records and documents.
▪ An environmental database report was obtained from a data service provider. This database report compiles and locates documented “hazardous waste” facilities within specific minimum search distances as defined by ASTM E 1527-21. If necessary, 799

5.0 PROPERTY PHYSICAL SETTING
Surface and subsurface environments are of interest because they control the movement of water-born contaminants, which could be transported to and from the subject Site. GEOTEK reviewed information regarding the physical setting of the subject Site and immediate surrounding area.

5.1 REGIONAL GEOLOGY
The subject property is situated in the Colorado Desert geomorphic province, which is a lowlying barren desert basin that is partially below sea level. The most dominant feature within this province is the Salton Trough that is a large northwest-trending alluvial filled structural block that extends about 180 miles in length.

The Coachella Valley forms the northern portion of the Salton Trough and is underlain by a series of sediments that range from Miocene to Recent/Holocene in age. The Salton Trough is bordered by the Little San Bernardino Mountains to the northeast, foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains to the northwest, and the San Jacinto and Santa Rosa Mountains to the southwest. The San Andreas Fault system extends through the Coachella Valley in a general northwest-southeast trend.

5.2 LOCAL GEOLOGIC SETTING
The Site and Site area are understood to be underlain by dune sand deposits (Dibblee, T.W. and Minch, J.A., 2008). Additional data regarding soil survey information for the Site and Site area is also included in Appendix B.

5.3 TOPOGRAPHY
The Site and Site area can be considered as having relatively flat to gently sloping terrain. Based on the USGS topographic map for the area and other documents reviewed for this report, the elevation of the Site ranges from approximately 255 to 285 feet above mean sea level.

5.4 VICINITY SURFACE DRAINAGE
Natural drainage at the Site is interpreted to be dominantly directed toward the southeast, conforming to the natural topography in the area.
810
Blue Fern West, LLC Project No. 4186-CR

The Site does not appear on the “GeoTracker” or “EnviroStor” databases.

GEOTEK consulted with the County of Riverside Fire and Sheriff Departments regarding controlled substances, aboveground and underground storage tanks, hazardous material permits, emergency responses, spills, inspections, or other information of an environmental or hazardous nature in association with the Site or adjoining facilities. Neither agency had information regarding the Site.

6.4 OUT OF SCOPE CONSIDERATIONS
Per- and Poly-Fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of over 9,000 synthetic chemicals that have been used for over 70 years. Due to the very stable carbon-fluorine bonds, perfluoroalkyls are resistant to biodegradation, photooxidation, direct photolysis, and hydrolysis. Atmospheric deposition can lead to contamination of soils and leaching into groundwater away from point sources. Health effects in humans may include cancer, cardiovascular, immunological, endocrine, reproductive, and hepatic harm.

At the time of the adoption of ASTM 1527-21 standard, PFAS chemicals were considered to be “emerging contaminants” and therefore technically are considered to be non-scope considerations, per the ASTM-1527-21 standards. However, as of April 19, 2024, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) officially designated the regulatory status of 820
Blue Fern West, LLC Project No. 4186-CR
Catavina East Project January 17, 2025
Palm Desert, Riverside County, California Page 23
two (2) commonly utilized PFAS chemicals as hazardous substances under CERCLA. The two (2) chemicals are perfluoro octane sulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA).

Furthermore, it is likely that numerous additional chemicals within the PFAS family will become officially designated as hazardous substances in the near future.

Although still technically considered an emerging contaminant per the governing ASTM 1527-21 standards, GEOTEK conservatively has elected to currently consider PFAS chemicals to be hazardous substances and thus potentially may represent a recognized environmental condition.

Generally, high-risk PFAS sites include airports, landfills, wastewater-treatment plants, government and military sites, petroleum plants, fire suppression/firefighting sites with aqueous film forming foam (AFFF), PFAS treated material and food packaging facilities, plating facilities, some biosolid farming sites, and most chemical production and manufacturing facilities, among others.

The Site does not appear on the PFAS database within the EDR Radius Report. The Site does not appear on the GeoTracker PFAS Map website (GeoTracker PFAS Map (ca.gov)). The Site does not appear on the USEPA PFAS Analytic Tools website (PFAS Analytic Tools (epa.gov)).

Based on the lack of high-risk facilities and no obvious signs of substantial PFAS contamination at the Site, it is GEOTEK’S opinion that PFAS chemicals do not represent a recognized environmental condition to the Site.

7.0 VAPOR ENCROACHMENT SCREENING
The purpose of a Vapor Encroachment Screen (VES) is to identify, to the extent feasible, if a Vapor Encroachment Condition (VEC) exists at the Site.

A Vapor Encroachment Screen Report was generated for the Site and Site area utilizing EDR’s Vapor Encroachment Worksheet (see Appendix F).

It was determined that there are no historical dry cleaners, former manufactured gas plants, former industrial sites or historical gas stations located within 600 feet and/or up gradient from the Site. It was also determined that no other conditions that would indicate a VEC exists at the Site.

It is GEOTEK’S opinion that a VEC is not likely to exist at the subject Site. The Vapor Encroachment Screen report is included in Appendix F.

EDR BUILDING PERMIT REPORT
About This Report
The EDR Building Permit Report provides a practical and efficient method to search building department records for indications of environmental conditions. Generated via a search of municipal building permit records gathered from more than 1,600 cities nationwide, this report will assist you in meeting the search requirements of EPA’s Standards and Practices for All Appropriate Inquiries (40 CFR Part 312), the ASTM Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments (E1527 - 21), or custom requirements developed for the evaluation of environmental risk associated with a parcel of real estate.

Building permit data can be used to identify current and/or former operations and structures/features of environmental concern. The data can provide information on a target property and adjoining properties such as the presence of underground storage tanks, pump islands, sumps, drywells, etc., as well as information regarding water, sewer, natural gas, electrical connection dates, and current/former septic tanks.

Methodology
EDR has developed the EDR Building Permit Report through our partnership with BuildFax, the nation’s largest repository of building department records. BuildFax collects, updates, and manages building department records from local municipal governments. The database now includes 30 million permits, on more than 10 million properties across 1,600 cities in the United States.

The EDR Building Permit Report comprises local municipal building permit records, gathered directly from local jurisdictions, including both target property and adjoining properties. Years of coverage vary by municipality. Data reported includes (where available): date of permit, permit type, permit number, status, valuation, contractor company, contractor name, and description.

Incoming permit data is checked at seven stages in a regimented quality control process, from initial data source interview, to data preparation, through final auditing. To ensure the building department is accurate, each of the seven quality control stages contains, on average, 15 additional quality checks, resulting in a process of approximately 105 quality control “touch points.”

GLOSSARY
General Building Department concepts
. ICC: The International Code Council. The governing body for the building/development codes used by all jurisdictions who’ve adopted the ICC guidelines. MOST of the US has done this. Canada, Mexico, and other countries use ICC codes books and guides as well. There are a few states who have added guidelines to the ICC codes to better fit their needs. For example, California has added seismic retrofit requirements for most commercial structures.
. Building Department (Permitting Authority, Building Codes, Inspections Department, Building and Inspections): This is the department in a jurisdiction where an owner or contractor goes to obtain permits and inspections for building, tearing down, remodeling, adding to, re-roofing, moving or otherwise making changes to any structure, Residential or Commercial.
. Jurisdiction: This is the geographic area representing the properties over which a Permitting Authority has responsibility.
. GC: General Contractor. Usually the primary contractor hired for any Residential or Commercial construction work.
. Sub: Subordinate contracting companies or subcontractors. Usually a “trades” contractor working for the GC. These contractors generally have an area of expertise in which they are licensed like Plumbing, Electrical, Heating and Air systems, Gas Systems, Pools etc. (called “trades”). . Journeymen: Sub contractors who have their own personal licenses in one or more trades and work for different contracting companies, wherever they are needed or there is work. .
.

HVAC (Mechanical, Heating & Air companies): HVAC = Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning.

ELEC (Electrical, TempPole, TPole, TPower, Temporary Power, Panel, AMP Change, Power Release):

Electrical permits can be pulled for many reasons. The most common reason is to increase the AMPs of power in an electrical power panel. This requires a permit in almost every jurisdiction. Other commons reason for Electrical permits is to insert a temporary power pole at a new construction site. Construction requires electricity, and in a new development, power has yet to be run to the lot. The temporary power pole is usually the very first permit pulled for new development. The power is released to the home owner when construction is complete and this sometimes takes the form of a Power Release permit or inspection. .
.
“Pull” a permit: To obtain and pay for a building permit. .

CBO: Chief Building Official
Planning Department: The department in the development process where the building /structural plans are reviewed for their completeness and compliance with building codes . Zoning Department: The department in the development process where the site plans are reviewed for their compliance with the regulations associated with the zoning district in which they are situated. . Zoning District: A pre-determined geographic boundary within a jurisdiction where certain types of structures are permitted / prohibited. Examples are Residential structure, Commercial/Retail structures, Industrial/Manufacturing structures etc. Each zoning district has regulations associated with it like the sizes of the lots, the density of the structures on the lots, the number of parking spaces required for certain types of structures on the lots etc.
.
.

PIN (TMS, GIS ID, Parcel#): Property Identification Number and Tax Map System number. .

State Card (Business license): A license card issued to a contractor to conduct business.

Building Inspector (Inspector): The inspector is a building department employee that inspects building construction for compliance to codes.
. C.O.: Certificate of Occupancy. This is the end of the construction process and designates that the owners now have permission to occupy a structure after its building is complete. Sometimes also referred to as a Certificate of Compliance.
861

GLOSSARY
Permit Content Definitions
. Permit Number: The alphanumerical designation assigned to a permit for tracking within the building department system. Sometimes the permit number gives clues to its role, e.g. a "PL" prefix may designate a plumbing permit.
. Description: A field on the permit form that allows the building department to give a brief description of the work being done. More often than not, this is the most important field for EP’s to find clues to the prior use (s) of the property.
. Permit Type: Generally a brief designation of the type of job being done. For example BLDG-RES, BLDGCOM, ELEC, MECH etc.
