To assess the level of additional noise resulting from the Project's operational phase, four reference noise sources at specific heights and at a distance of 50 feet from each source formed the basis of the analysis. The four reference noise sources and associated heights are listed here:
• Loading dock activity, 8 feet high
• Trash enclosure activity, 5 feet high
• Roof -top air conditioning units, five feet high
• Parking lot vehicle movements, five feet high
The Noise and Vibration Analysis concluded that the combined Project operational noise and the existing ambient noise during the daytime, evening, and nighttime would range between 0.0 and 3.1 dBA at the sensitive receptor noise receiver locations. The combined Project operational noise level and ambient noise level would not exceed the City's noise standards. The Project's operational noise would result in a less than significant impacts.

Project traffic would increase the level of traffic noise, but this increase is expected to be an incremental increase and is not expected to generate even a barely perceptible increase of the traffic noise level, which would be less than significant.46 Summary
Construction noise analysis performed for the proposed Project determined that equipment noise would not exceed 80 dBA. Furthermore, the combined noise levels of the existing ambient noise and the modeled construction noise that would be received at four different locations representing the nearby sensitive receptors will not exceed 80 dBA.
Operational noise impacts associated with Project traffic, HVAC units, trash enclosure and loading dock activity will not result in an increase of the ambient noise level that would exceed the City's standard noise level for either the Project site's General Commercial land or the adjacent High Density Residential and Mobile Home Park land uses.
While the Project's construction and operational activities would generate temporary and permanent increases in ambient noise levels in the vicinity, the increases would not be substantial and would not exceed the noise level standards established in the City's General Plan for the Project site land use or for the adjacent residential land uses. Impacts would be less than significant.
b) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
According to the Rancho Mirage Municipal Code 17.18.080, no vibration associated with any use which is discernable beyond the project boundary is permitted. The City does not provide a permissible vibration standard for temporary construction activity, hence, the vibration damage threshold provided by the Caltrans Transportation and Construction Vibration Guidance Manual, is applied to the analysis of the Project's potential impacts. 47 According to the Noise and Vibration Analysis, the nearby sensitive receptors, which are "older residential structures," have a maximum acceptable continuous vibration threshold of 0.3 PPV inches/second (in/sec).
The four receiver locations representing nearby off -site sensitive receptors are between 23 feet and 703 feet from the Project boundary during the construction phase.
Construction vibration velocity levels at these receiver locations are estimated to range from 0.001 to 0.177 PPVin/sec. As the anticipated velocity levels are under 0.3 PPV in/sec, the Project's construction activities are not expected to generate excessive ground -borne vibration or noise level, and the impact that would be less than significant. c) NO IMPACT:
The Project site occurs 4.5 miles southeast of the Palm Springs International Airport, and
1.3 miles southeast of the Airport Influence Area boundary. The Project area is not in the vicinity of a private airstrip or airport and is further than two miles from a public use airport.
People residing or working at the Project site would not be exposed to excessive airport noise levels. There would be no impact.

14.1 Setting
Among the nine incorporated cities of the Coachella Valley, Rancho Mirage is the second smallest in population. As of 2023, the population in the City of Rancho Mirage is estimated to be 17,375,48 and according to the General Plan 2017 Update, the maximum population could reach 25,573.
Until 2012, the Charthouse restaurant occupied the Project site and was a substantial employment generator.
14.2 Discussion of Impacts:
a) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
The proposed Project will provide a form of retail recreation and natural history education along the Highway 111 Corridor. The Project is conservatively estimated to support up to 73 full and part-time jobs (based on 1 job/300 sf), comparable to employment that would have been associated with the earlier restaurant on this site. Based on the relatively limited jobs creation potential and the site's prior history as a job creator, the proposed Project is not expected to induce substantial unplanned population growth in the City's. Likewise, the project does not require the extension of roads or other infrastructure. Most of the Project's employees are expected to be existing local residents. To the limited extent the Project could attract new residents to the City, this could result in an incremental population increase. Impacts would be less than significant. b) NO IMPACT:
The proposed Project will occur on currently vacant but previously developed lands within a well -established shopping center within a General Commercial (C -G) designation.
Adjacent commercial land uses occur to the northwest, west and south. Residents living in the two existing High Density Residential neighborhoods located to the northeast and 48 US Census Bureau, 2023 ACS Demographic and Housing Estimates, Table DP05.

15.1 Setting
The proposed Project is a commercial museum and associated uses, which will generate a limited but incremental increased demand for public services, which are each addressed below. It again should be noted that prior to 2012, the subject property was occupied by the Charthouse restaurant, which was fully serviced by local public service providers. As discussed below, the proposed Project will result in no or a de minimus increase in public services and resources.
Fire Protection Services
The City maintains a cooperative agreement with the State of California (CalFire) and the Riverside County Fire Department (RCFD) for fire protection services. RCFD operates two stations in Rancho Mirage with Station 50 at 70801 Highway 111, located 1.9 miles south, being the nearest to the Project site. At all times, this station is equipped with one medic engine, or fire truck, two firefighters and one firefighter/paramedic. Should additional resources be required, the RCFD operates five other stations close to Rancho Mirage available to assist as needed.

Police Protection Services
The Riverside County Sheriff's Department, operating out of the Palm Desert Sheriff's Station on Gerald Ford Drive, provides law enforcement services to Rancho Mirage through a contractual agreement. The Sheriff's Department employs 16 deputy sheriffs for patrol, traffic enforcement, and emergency response. Additional support services are provided by clerical staff, special enforcement team, crime prevention and investigative personnel.
Schools
The City of Rancho Mirage occurs within two school districts, the Palm Springs Unified School District (PSUSD) and the Desert Sands Unified School District (DSUSD). In the City, there is one public elementary school and one public high school, both of which are included in the PSUSD.
Parks
The City hosts five different parks and five local trails. The City's parks are further described below in Section 16, Recreation.
15.2 Discussion of Impacts:
a,i) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
Since the Project occurs within the three-mile and five-minute response parameter as recommended by the National Fire Insurance Organizations and the National Fire Protection Association, the construction of a new fire department facility will not be required.49 To offset the increase in the demand for fire protection services, new non- residential commercial projects in the City are subject to the Fire Facilities and Equipment development impact fee (DIF) of $313 per 1,000 square feet.5° The DIF is applied toward constructing, improving, and maintaining fire service equipment and facilities. The payment of the requisite DIF by the applicant would ensure that any impact resulting from the Project's incremental increase in the need for fire protection services is reduced to less than significant.
a,ii) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
In 2016, the ratio of police personnel to City residents was one officer per 786 residents, which was above the commonly accepted ratio of one officer per 1,000 residents. The average response time in 2015 was 5.9 minutes for Priority 1 calls. The proposed Project is a commercial entertainment and educational venue that would be open during typical business hours. Although the Project could increase the demand for law enforcement services, this increase would be incremental, very limited and would not induce the need for additional facilities. Project impacts on the City's police protection services would be less than significant.
a,iii) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
The Project generate a de minimis potential increase in new residents or generate additional school enrollments. A combination of part and full-time jobs will be created, comparable to the jobs generated by the previous restaurant at this site.

impact fees are not applied to commercial projects. No impacts to the local school services are anticipated.
LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
As the proposed Project is a commercial museum venue, it would not result in a substantial increase in the City's population and thus would not lead to a significant increased use of the City's parks or other public facilities, nor would the Project induce the need to development new or additional park and/or recreation facilities. Less than significant impacts to parks and/or recreational facilities will occur. a,v LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
A variety of other public facilities may serve the proposed Project and/or its future employees, including general governmental services and library services. Prior to its destruction in 2012, the Charthouse restaurant that operated on this site generated and contributed to the overall city demand for such services. The proposed project will generate comparable demand for such services and demand is expected to be limited and less than significant.

16.1 Setting
The City provides a range of park experiences for residents and visitors. Mini parks are less than one acre in size and may accommodate a small children's tot lot or a passive seating area. There are two mini parks in the City. Local parks are between five and ten acres in size and provide additional amenities such as walking paths, ball fields, picnic tables, children's playgrounds, and dog parks. The City has three local parks. Community parks, 20 to 40 acres in size, offer even larger scale recreational amenities such as multiple ball fields, tennis complexes, swimming pool, and a recreation building for events and activities. Currently, City residents may access community parks outside of the City which are funded through a multi -city agreement.
Per the 1965 Quimby Act, the cities who participate are required to provide three acres of parkland per 1,000 residents. Currently, the Land Use Element of the General Plan 2017 Update allocates 55 acres of parkland, and at build out, the City would need to provide at least 93 acres.
16.2 Discussion of Impacts:
a, b) NO IMPACT:
The purpose of the proposed Project would provide a commercial entertainment and educational experience at the site that once hosted the Charthouse restaurant. As the Project is not a residential development, it is not expected to result in no or a de minimis increase the City's population. Moreover, employees of the Project would primarily be local residents. Therefore, an increase in the use of existing parks or other facilities would be less than significant.
The Project includes an outdoor plaza area and a landscaped walkway between the Museum and the overflow parking lot. These outdoor amenities would be under the maintenance responsibility of the Project. There would be no need to expand the City's recreational facilities.

17.1 Setting
The transportation system throughout the City of Rancho Mirage is comprised of five roadway classifications from local two-lane roadways to six -lane major arterials such as Highway 111, along which the Project site occurs. Regional access to the City is provided by US Interstate 10, Highway 111 and Highway 74. Multiple jurisdictions including the federal government, California Department of Transportation, Riverside County Transportation Department, and the City manage different components of the transportation system.
The Circulation Element of the General Plan 2017 Update emphasizes the need to maintain safe, efficient, and economical circulation network. The City applies a Level of Service (LOS) metric when assessing the performance of the transportation network and intersection delays. LOS provides a ranked measurement of roadway operating conditions, that ranges from "A" (free flow, best conditions) to "F" (worst conditions, serious delays, and system failure). LOS D is the minimum acceptable level of service for Rancho Mirage. LOS is not a metric under CEQA.
Senate Bill 743 (2013) updates the methodology for analyzing transportation impacts by projects to more accurately measure and correlate transportation -related air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions with land use patterns, and to more effectively reduce emissions via the development of multimodal transportation networks and diversification of land uses. CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3 describes the use of Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) as the metric by which to measure project transportation impacts. However, certain projects are exempt from preparing a VMT analysis based on project size and proximity to high quality transit. In 2021 the City of Rancho Mirage 97
1501
GLOBAL WILDLIFE DISCOVERY MUSEUM
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
August 2025
City adopted a VMT analysis policy, Resolution 2021-06, in compliance with SB 743, which guides the following Project impacts discussion.
Public Transit
SunLine Transit Agency provides bus routes throughout the Coachella Valley ranging from Desert Hot Springs to the west and North Shore Community near the Salton Sea to the southeast.
Sunline Bus Route 1WV provides the nearest stop on the east side of Highway 111 just 120 feet north of Mirage Cove Drive adjacent to the Project's proposed overflow parking lot. Route 2 provides the nearest stop, 0.34 miles northwest at City Hall, to the Project site at Date Palm Drive and Highway 111.
As discussed below, the proposed Project will not alter, adversely affect or conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs regarding public transit, bicycle, or pedestrian facilities, or otherwise decrease the performance or safety of such facilities. No project related impacts to alternative transportation are anticipated.
17.2 Discussion of Impacts:
a, b) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
If a project conflicts with a program, plan, ordinance, or policy addressing the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle, and pedestrian facilities, then its impacts would be significant. Furthermore, if a project conflicts or is inconsistent with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3, subdivision (b), its impacts would be significant. Analysis of the Project's impacts on the circulation system programs, plans and policies is based on Riverside County's Transportation Analysis Guidelines and ITE references.
The proposed Project is a private museum and education facility planned for a site that had been previously occupied by a restaurant for nearly 40 years. The Project will utilize the existing 33 -foot -wide driveway leading from Highway 111 into the main parking lot as primary access. A second, signalized access drive into the subject shopping center is located approximately 320 feet north of the Project's main driveway. The Project also proposes an overflow parking lot on the south portion of the site at the northeast corner of Highway 111 and Mirage Cove Drive.
Project Level of Service
The Project's anticipated impact on circulation level of service was analyzed by forecasting the Project's daily trip generation or traffic attracted to the Project. Based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) "Museum" land use code, 580, the ITE TripGen Web - Based Application was used to estimate the number of daily trips generated. The Project would potentially generate an average total of 150 trips daily (average daily trips or ADT), with the highest volume occurring during the Saturday peak hour. Table 21 provides the ITE TripGen data.

GLOBAL WILDLIFE DISCOVERY MUSEUM
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
August 2025
Pursuant to the County's Transportation Analysis Guidelines, if a project generates fewer than 100 peak hour trips, then a detailed traffic analysis is not required, and the project's impacts on level of service are expected to be less than significant. The proposed Project is anticipated to generate fewer than 15 trips during the Saturday peak hour and during the weekday AM and PM peak hours. ADT and peak hour trip volumes will be less than significant. No further LOS analysis is required for the Project.
Exemptions from VMT Analysis
City of Rancho Mirage Resolution 2021-06 aligns the City's methodology for measuring project impacts on local traffic patterns with SB 743. However, projects that meet the City's screening criteria are exempt from preparing VMT analyses, thus, detailed CEQA assessments are not required for land uses associated with the exempt projects.
Exempting certain projects avoids unnecessary analyses as those projects are deemed to result in less than significant impacts. The proposed Project meets the following Screening Criteria and therefore is exempt from conducting an extensive VMT analysis:
• Small Project — Projects that emit under 3,000 metric tons of CO2e annually per the County's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Screening Tables are exempt due to having low trip generation. Such projects include retail buildings with areas up to 60,000 sf, general office buildings with areas up to 165,000 sf, general light industrial buildings with areas up 179,000 sf, warehouse (unrefrigerated) buildings with areas up to 208,000 sf.
Given that the Project meets this screening criteria, the Project is consistent with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3 (b) and impacts with regard to VMTs would be less than significant.
In summary, the proposed Project will result in increased traffic volumes, however, this increase would be very limited (-150 ADT). It should also be noted that for several decades and until 2012, the Charthouse restaurant occupied the subject property and generated a similar volume of vehicle traffic. The proposed Project's daily traffic volume will not conflict with any program, plan, ordinance or policy addressing the circulation system as it will not cause a decrease in the level of service. As the Project qualifies as a "small project" per the City's screening criteria, traffic impacts associated with the Project VMT would not conflict with or be inconsistent with CEQA Guidelines § 15064.3. Project impacts would be less than significant.
LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
As described above, primary access to the proposed Project will be provided via an existing 33 -foot driveway on Highway 111 that directly serves the existing development site parking. Secondary access will be available from the signalized Atrium Center driveway/intersection 320 feet to the north. The Project does not propose to construct a hazardous geometric design, modify existing roadways or include uses that are incompatible with the City's Land Use Plan. Prior to construction, both the Fire Department and Police Department will review the Project site plan to ensure safety measures are addressed, including emergency access. Therefore, the proposed Project will have a less than significant impact on emergency access and will not increase hazards due to a geometric design feature.

18.1 Setting
California state law requires a government -to -government consultation process between project lead agencies and California Native American tribes who have an interest in protecting cultural resources in a project area. The consultation process must begin prior to the release of an environmental impact report, mitigated negative declaration, or negative declaration. Native American tribes participating in the consultation process are those who have requested notice of all proposed projects within the jurisdiction of the lead agency.
Assembly Bill 52
Public Resources Code (PRC) 21074(a) states that if a project has the potential to cause a substantial adverse change or impairment to a tribal cultural resource (TCR), then the project may cause an adverse effect on the environment.

new CEQA category of resources called, Tribal Cultural Resources, whereby a formal consultation process was established between lead agencies and impacted California Native American tribes to address concerns regarding a project's potential impacts to tribal cultural resources. Tribal Cultural Resources include California Native American archaeological sites, cultural landscapes and sacred places.51
Public Resources Code (PRC) § 21074(a) defines tribal cultural resources as:
1) Sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to a California Native American tribe that are either of the following:
a. Included or determined to be eligible for inclusion in the California Register of Historical Resources.
b. Included in a local register of historical resources as defined in subdivision (k) of Section 5020.1.

In applying the criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Section 5024.1 for the purposes of the paragraph, the lead agency shall consider the significance of the resource to a California Native American tribe.
Analysis of tribal cultural resources potentially occurring on the Project site is based on the archaeological report entitled, "Phase 1 Historical/Archaeological Resources Survey for Howard World Wildlife Museum Project, Assessor's Parcel Nos 689-040-023, -025, -028, City of Rancho Mirage, California," prepared on April 10, 2025 by CRM TECH (referred to as "Cultural Resources Report"). Appendix C contains a copy of the Report. The historical background research, intensive -level field survey, and Native American Sacred Lands File Search are described in Section V, Cultural Resources.
Ethnohistoric Setting
Cahuilla are a Takic-speaking people whose traditional territory extends from the San Bernardino Mountains to the north down across the Santa Rosa Mountains to the Borrego Desert to the south, and from the City of Riverside to the west over to the Colorado River. Anthropologists identify three regional groups of Cahuilla: Desert Cahuilla, Western (or, Pass) Cahuilla, and Mountain Cahuilla. However, Cahuilla associate with one of two moieties, the Tuktum (Wildcat) or the Istam (Coyote) and were further organized into clans along patrilineal lines. Today, nine bands of Cahuilla are federally recognized.
The Spanish Mission System began in California in 1776, however, due to the remoteness of their territories in the mountains and deserts, many of the Cahuilla remained out of reach of the Mission System until 1819 when an outpost, or Asistencia, of the San Gabriel Mission was built in Redlands area. Thus began the forced transition of many Cahuilla from their traditional homelands and lifestyles to Spanish Mission lifestyle and labor. The Tate 1800s saw the arrival of the railroad and non -Native agriculturalists and who were given traditional Cahuilla lands by the federal government to convert into farmland.

Native American Consultation
As part of the preparation of the Cultural Resources Report, a written request to the State of California Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) for a Sacred Lands File records search was submitted by CRM TECH on January 24, 2025. CRM TECH contacted the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians (ACBCI), the tribe who is nearest to the Project site, and invited the tribe to participate in the archaeological fieldwork. In response, Luz Salazar and Loriea Gregory, Cultural Resources Analysts at the Agua Caliente Tribal Historical Preservation Office, identified the Project site as occurring within the tribe's traditional use area and participated in the archaeological field survey. ACBCI cultural resources analysts followed up by requesting copies of all cultural resource documentation pertaining to this Project and the presence of an ACBCI tribal monitor on the Project site during ground -disturbing construction activities. A copy of ACBCI correspondence is included in the Cultural Resources Report.
In addition to the consultation conducted by the Project archaeologist, Assembly Bill 52 (AB 52) instructs lead agencies to consult with any local California Native American tribe who is traditionally and culturally affiliated with the geographic area of the Proposed Project if the tribe has requested formal notification.52 AB 52 has established guidelines for completing consultation process and incorporating tribal requests.
The NAHC provided a list of 22 contacts representing 11 local tribes to contact for further evaluation of the presence of potential cultural resources. In a letter dated May 19, 2025 (see Appendix D), the City initiated the AB 52 consultation for the proposed Museum with 11 local tribes. The 30 -day consultation period was between May 19, 2025, to June 18, 2025. Three responses were received. The Quechan Indian Tribe of the Fort Yuma Reservation declined consultation and deferred to the local tribes for comment.
The Morongo Band of Mission Indians responded on June 12, 2025. The letter stated the project is located within the ancestral territory and traditional use area of the Cahuilla and Serrano people of the Morongo Band of Mission Indians. Project materials, cultural resource documentation, and survey reports were requested and provided by the City. The Tribal Historic Preservation Office initiated government to government consultation and had a virtual meeting with the City on July 2, 2025.
The Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians (ACBCI) responded on June 16, 2025, during the AB 52 process. The letter states the site is not within the Tribe's reservation boundary, however; it is part of their Traditional Use Area. The tribe requested cultural resource documentation and survey reports, which were provided by the City. Government to government consultation was initiated and a virtual meeting was held on June 301h, 2025. Dialogue continued between the City and the tribe, particularly relating to the Morongo Band's requests. The City and ACBCI concluded consultation at the end of August, 2025.
18.2 Discussion of Impacts:
a i,ii) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT WITH MITIGATION:
Per the Cultural Resources Report, and as described in Section V, the Project site contains no tribal cultural resources that are listed or eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources, or in a local register of historical resources identified on the Project site. However, the ACBCI has confirmed that the Project site is within the tribe's Traditional 52 California Public Resources Code §21080.3.1, January 1, 2015.

Use Area. As noted above, the City completed AB 52 Tribal Consultation. The City received consultation requests from both the ACBCI and the Morongo Band. Following consultation meetings with both tribes, and follow-up discussions with ACBCI, the ACBCI coordinated directly with the Morongo Band, and notified the City that it would provide monitoring for the Project. The Morongo Band separately informed the City that it would conduct monitoring if the ACBCI failed to do so. Mitigation Measures CUL-1 and CUL-2 provide for the monitoring requested by both tribes. Mitigation Measures CUL-3 and CUL- 4 are provided at the Morongo Band's request, and will be implemented only if ACBCI fails to provide monitoring on the Project site. As a result of these mitigation measures, potential impacts to Tribal Cultural Resources will be reduced to less than significant levels.

19.1 Setting
The proposed Project is located within the development area of the existing Atrium commercial center, which has existed at this site form several decades. The subject property is located in the southerly -most portion of the Atrium site and until 2012 hosted a well know restaurant, which was destroyed by fire. The site and other uses at the Atrium are fully services with water, sewer and other utilities.

Domestic Water
The Coachella Valley Groundwater Basin is the main source of municipal, or domestic, water for the entire Coachella Valley. The basin is comprised of several subbasins which are divided by tectonic faults; the Indio Subbasin provides domestic water for the Project site. Six different water agencies utilize and manage portions of the basin throughout the Coachella Valley, including and principally CVWD, which provides domestic water service to the subject property. Local rainwater and snowmelt have filled the basin over several million years, but human activities continue to extract more water than can be naturally recharged. In response to past and current basin overdraft, CVWD and DWA supplement natural recharge by importing and percolating Colorado River water into the basin via four replenishment facilities. Both agencies also supplement irrigation water with recycled wastewater. CVWD is also a state water project contractor.
CVWD, the largest water district in the Coachella Valley, manages the domestic water infrastructure in the City. CVWD serves a population of 270,000 and manages 114,196 accounts, via 97 production wells, 2,000 miles of pipeline, and 133 million gallons of storage in 68 enclosed reservoirs.53
Wastewater
According to the 2023 CVWD Annual Report, the District' sanitary sewer facilities serve a population of 250,000 and 105,203 active accounts. Sewer lines totaling 1,173 miles and 30 lift stations convey on average approximately 17.11 million gallons per day (mgd) of wastewater to five different wastewater reclamation plants (WRPs). CVWD's total daily wastewater treatment capacity is 33.1 mgd.54 The Project site would be served by WRP-10.
Solid Waste
The City contracts with Burrtec Waste and Recycling Services to provide solid waste collection, recycling, and green waste disposal services. Pursuant to the State's recycling and landfill diversion regulations, Burrtec processes recyclable materials and green waste separately from solid waste. Recyclable materials are sorted at a Burrtec Materials Recovery Facility (MRF).
Green waste may be composted or applied as alternative daily landfill cover. The Project's solid waste will be taken to the Coachella Valley Transfer Station located on Edom HiII where it will then be transferred to the Lamb Canyon Landfill in Beaumont. Lamb Canyon Landfill has a remaining capacity of 14,540,000 cubic yards (36.64% of total capacity) with a maximum daily throughput of 5,000 cubic yards.
19.2 Discussion of Impacts:
a) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
The Project site is located within a largely built-up urban area of Rancho Mirage, is located within a well -established commercial center and has been previously developed; hence, the Project has direct access to existing utility services. The Highway 111 right-of-way contains a 12 -inch water line, a fire hydrant, an SCE electric line and electric vault and transformer, an 8 -inch natural gas line, and a telecommunications line which all occur along the Project frontage.

also contains an 8 -inch water line, a 2 -inch gas line, an SCE electric line, a telecommunications line, and an 8 -inch sewer line. Another 8 -inch sewer line occurs at the northeast corner of the Project site and would directly serve the proposed museum building. While Project -serving connections would need to be reestablished, the Project would not require the construction or expansion of utility services that would cause significant environmental impacts. Impacts associated with the connections to existing utility services would be less than significant.
b) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
Project operational domestic water demand calculations are based on the building's use and square footage, and the square footage of the landscaped area. The indoor water demand estimate is derived from the American Water Works Association demand factor which assumes that commercial and institutional buildings demand 15 gallons of water per square foot per day. To assess the Project's outdoor water use, CVWD provides the outdoor water demand calculation for a landscaped area which incorporates localized evapotranspiration and related adjustment factors.
As noted in the 2023-2024 CVWD Annual Review, CVWD customers generate an average daily water demand of 75.9 million gallons (or 232± acre-feet) per day (mgd). The total amount of water delivered in 2023-2024 was 85,014 acre-feet (af).55 The Project's total estimated water demand for both indoor and outdoor uses is 3.44 af per year, which would account for 0.004% of the total freshwater demand supplied by CVWD during the 2023- 2024 year. Table 22 summarizes the Project's estimated annual water demand compared to the most recent CVWD annual water delivery data.

In compliance with the 2014 Sustainable Groundwater Management Act, the Coachella Valley water agencies who rely on the Coachella Valley Groundwater Basin collectively published a Regional Urban Water Management Plan to set forth guidelines for cooperative water conservation measures and water shortage contingency plans.56 The CVWD outlined reductions in water withdrawals and increased water conservation actions that would be necessary during a multi -year drought.
The Project would be consistent with the water conservation policies prescribed by CVWD and the City's General Plan 2017 Update by including native and drought tolerant landscaping and low water -use appliances.57 Project water demand would not substantially decrease groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge. Likewise, the Project's water demand would not impede sustainable groundwater management of the Basin. Project water demand impacts would be less than significant.
c) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
As noted above, CVWD operates five wastewater reclamation plants (WRP), and the Project effluent would be treated at WRP-10 on Cook Street in Palm Desert. According to the most recent Annual Report for the Indio Subbasin, WRP-10 annually treated 9,366 af of wastewater, and has a total daily capacity of 15 million gallons. About 85% of this effluent was recycled and the remainder was routed to percolation recharge ponds.58 To estimate the amount of wastewater generated by the Project, the CVWD Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) calculation for office/warehouse projects was applied. Per this calculation, each restroom in an office/warehouse is equivalent to one dwelling unit (EDU), and each EDU, or restroom, would generate 250 gallons of wastewater per day (gpd). The proposed museum includes three restrooms, which would comprise 0.018% of the total daily capacity of WRP 10 and represents 0.009% of the total amount of wastewater treated during 2023-2024. Please see Table 23 for a summary of the calculations.

Based on the most recent data from CVWD, the Project's wastewater generation would be less than 0.05% of the daily capacity of WRP 10, which would not constitute a significant impact on CVWD's ability to provide services to its customers. The impact associated with the Project's wastewater demand would be less than significant. d, e) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
As described above, Burrtec Waste and Recycling Services provides solid waste, recycling, and green waste disposal services to the City of Rancho Mirage. Burrtec processes recyclable materials and green waste separately from solid waste and helps the City achieve the mandatory 50% diversion rate. Recyclable materials would be processed at a Burrtec MRF and then shipped to industries who purchase the commodities. Green waste may be composted or applied as alternative daily landfill cover.
The remaining solid waste would be delivered to the Coachella Valley Transfer Station from which the waste would be transferred to the Lamb Canyon Sanitary Landfill in Beaumont, California. Lamb Canyon Landfill has maximum permitted capacity of 39,681,513 cubic yards and a remaining capacity of 14,540,000 cubic yards (36.64% of total capacity) with a maximum daily throughput of 5,000 cubic yards.59 See Table 24 for a summary of the Project's impacts on the local landfill.
The Project's estimated solid waste generation rate is based on the commercial retail waste generation rate of 2.5 pounds per 1,000 square feet per day as provided by CalRecycle's Commercial Sector Generation Rates.

20.1 Setting
In the Coachella Valley, the potential for wildfire predominantly occurs in the surrounding brush - covered hillsides where slope, dry vegetation and high winds form ideal wildfire conditions. Zones where the cities of the Coachella Valley transition to the outlying hillsides form Wildland Urban Interfaces (WUI), which are particularly susceptible to wildfire risk. The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CalFire) provides the Fire Hazard Severity Zone (FHSZ) Viewer, an online map application that displays the 2024 adopted State Responsibility Area (SRA) FHSZ boundaries where CalFire takes the responsibility for wildland fire protection, and the Local Responsibility Area (LRA) where the Riverside County Fire Department is responsible for wildland fire protection.

GLOBAL WILDLIFE DISCOVERY MUSEUM
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
August 2025
Although there is no record of any significant wildfire occurring in Rancho Mirage, the City is considered to have a moderate risk of wildfire. Moderate LRA FHSZs occur on the lower and upper slopes of the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains including the slopes across Highway 111 west of the Project site. These slopes are undeveloped and included in the Bighorn Sheep habitat area. The City contracts with the Riverside County Fire Department in cooperation with the CalFire for the provision of fire protective services. CalFire operates air attack equipment based at the Hemet/Ryan airport west of the Coachella Valley. If ever a wildfire occurred on these mountain slopes, the response time from the Hemet/Ryan airport would be approximately 15 minutes.60 The City's emergency responses and evacuation procedures are coordinated with appropriate agencies, which are also discussed in Section 9, Hazards and Hazardous Materials.
20.2 Discussion of Impacts:
a) NO IMPACT:
In preparation for emergencies and natural disasters, Rancho Mirage has adopted the 2023 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) which outlines potential wildfire risks and assigns responsibilities to the appropriate agencies to ensure accurate and coordinated responses to wildfires. The City also participates in Riverside County Multi -Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (MJHMP) and also coordinates with the Riverside County Fire Department, the California Department of Forestry, the Sheriff's Department, and the American Red Cross to receive a wide range of emergency response services. The City's Emergency Preparedness Commission provides resources and emergency preparation education to residents and business to reduce potential impacts of natural disasters.
Two main evacuation routes for the City include US Interstate 10 and State Highway 111.
The Project is located on Highway 111 and therefore has direct access to an evacuation route via two existing access drives, one of which is signalized. The Project will not change on -site circulation or highway access. The Project is also subject to evaluation and approval by the Riverside County Fire Department to certify that it will not substantially impair an adopted emergency response or an evacuation route, and therefore, impacts are expected to be less than significant.
b, c)
LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
The Project is not located within or near either an SRA or an LRA FHSZ. The Project site itself is a relatively flat parcel, except for the 100 -foot rock outcrop on the eastern portion of the site, and is located along Highway 111, a major six -lane thoroughfare. Highway 111 would act as a fuel break between the Project site and the Santa Rosa foothills to the west of Highway 111. Vegetation on the on -site rock outcrop is very thin due to the lack of soil formation and is not a significant fuel source. All utilities including water sources, power lines, and fuel breaks are already available to the Project site, hence installation of new infrastructure would not be required. Maintenance of existing infrastructure would not exacerbate fire risk as the Project site occurs in an urban built-up portion of the City and is not within an FHSZ. The Project is designed to facilitate firefighting around the entire proposed building through provision of minimum hose runs. The Project would not exacerbate wildfire risks or expose occupants to pollutant concentrations or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire. Impacts are expected to be less than significant. 6° City of Rancho Mirage Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update, Section 4.0 Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment, 2023.

d) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
The Project site does not occur in a flood risk zone, nor does it occur in an FHSZ.
Furthermore, the developable portion of the site is flat and the rock outcrop is considered to be stable and not susceptible to landslides or post -fire instability. The Project encroaches into the on -site rock outcrop but provides facilities between the proposed building and slope to capture and route hillside runoff around the building and into on -site drainage facilities. The Project does not pose a risk of exposing people or structure to significant risks such as downslope or downstream flooding, landslides, post -fire slope instability, or drainage changes. Impacts are expected to be less than significant.

21.1 Discussion of Impacts:
a) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT WITH MITIGATION INCORPORATION:
Biological Resources
The Project site is not located within a CVMSHCP-designated conservation area and does not contain any wildlife corridors or biological linkage areas. The site was previously developed with a restaurant, which was destroyed by fire in 2012. Vegetation on the site is very sparse; however, existing on -site vegetation and the rock outcrop could support wildlife. Two bat species may be attracted to the Project site due to roosting opportunities in the mature fan palms and the rocky hillside. Fan palms are a preferred roosting habitat of the western yellow bat, which is a species that is covered by the CVMSHCP but is also considered to be imperiled and is a California species of special concern.
City of Rancho Mirage
1517

GLOBAL WILDLIFE DISCOVERY MUSEUM
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
August 2025
The Project would remove approximately 350 cubic yards of the lower portion of rock outcrop to accommodate the museum building. Rock crevices in rocky hillsides are the preferred roosting habitat for the pocketed free -tailed bat, which is also a California species of special concern. Pre -construction bat surveys of any palms that are scheduled to be removed and of the western lower edge of the rock outcrop where the disturbance is planned are recommended and explained in the BIO-1 Mitigation Measure.
The vegetative scrub and mature fan palms on the Project site could also be potentially used by resident and migratory nesting birds, many of which are not special status species, but all are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) and the California Fish and Game Code (FGC). A pre -construction survey will be required to avoid impacts to nesting birds covered by the MBTA. Mitigation Measure BIO-2 provides details for conducting the nesting bird survey.
Monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) are not covered by the CVMSHCP but are considered to have a low potential to occur on the Project site. However, if any milkweed plants occur on the site monarch butterflies may be attracted to the site as milkweed species are the sole larval host plants for the monarch butterfly. Mitigation Measure BIO- 3 explains the steps that should be taken to avoid impacts to the species if it occurs on the Project site.
Finally, as the City is a signatory to the CVMSHCP, heretofore undeveloped portions of the Project may be subject to payment of the Development Mitigation Fee to mitigate potential impacts to covered species under the CVMSHCP.
The Proposed Project will not significantly reduce fish or wildlife habitat or otherwise adversely impact a fish or wildlife species. The construction of the Project has the potential to impact nesting birds, but the mitigation measures included in this document and payment of the CVMSHCP Development Mitigation Fee (if required) and implementation of the three mitigation measures set forth in Section 4, Biological Resources, will reduce potential impacts to less than significant levels for any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, special status species, or otherwise protected species that may occur on the Project site.
Cultural Resources
The Project site was evaluated by a qualified professional archaeologists and resource monitors of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. It was determined that the Project site has a low potential for resources as no surface deposits or other sign were discovered during the field survey. However, the potential for buried resources, including Tribal resources, requires the implementation of mitigation to ensure that impacts are less than significant should any subsurface resources be discovered. Mitigation Measure CUL-1 provides details for the investigation and care of discovered resources, which would reduce impacts to less than significant.
Geology and Soils
The Geotechnical Investigation for the Proposed Project prepared by Sladden Engineering, March 31, 2025, provides recommendations to ensure that impacts associated with ground shaking, unstable soil and rock falls resulting from seismic activity are less than significant. Development of the Project shall adhere to the recommendations prior to issuance of grading and building permits.

b) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
The Project is consistent with the City's General Plan 2017 Update land use and zoning designations assigned to the property and would therefore not generate any greater impacts than those expected from the buildout of the General Plan. Cumulative impacts are expected to be less than significant with the implementation of the prescribed mitigation measures.
c) LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACT:
The proposed Project is planned for a site that for several decades was occupied by a restaurant for nearly 40 years, which was destroyed by fire in 2012. The proposed Project will not significantly impact people in any direct or indirect way. Traffic impacts, air quality, GHG, hazardous materials and noise impacts have been determined to be less than significant in the discussions above.

BIO-1 Bat Clearance Surveys: Western yellow bats roost on the undersides of California and Mexican fan palm fronds,
particularly the dead fronds where they can blend in more easily. If there are no dead fronds, they may choose to roost in the live fronds. Bat clearance surveys are
recommended for the Western yellow bat if the Project
entails the removal of any palm trees from the site. Each palm that is scheduled to be removed must be inspected
by a qualified biologist for the presence of roosting western yellow bats.
Pocketed free -tailed bats roost in rock crevices of hillsides, therefore, to avoid significant impacts, a pre -construction bat clearance survey of the rock outcrop must be
conducted prior to any disturbance to the rock outcrop. The appropriate level and extent of the survey shall be
commensurate with the level of disturbance to the rock
outcrop. If roosting bats are identified, the biologist shall provide guidance as to the appropriate avoidance
measures that should be taken.
BIO-2 Nesting Bird Survey: To avoid impacts to resident and migratory nesting birds, all vegetation clearing, ground disturbance, and construction activity should be scheduled between September 1 and January 31 if possible. If
construction occurs during the nesting season, February 1 through August 31, a qualified ornithologist or biologist must conduct a pre -construction nesting bird survey (NBS) immediately prior to scheduled construction activity. If active nests are identified, the biologist will demarcate a no - work buffer zone(s) around the active nest(s) and check the nest site(s) weekly until the young birds fledge and the nest(s) become inactive. The buffer zone size would be
based on the nesting species, its sensitivity to disturbance, nesting stage and the expected intensity and duration of disturbance. No ground or vegetation disturbance shall
occur within the nest site buffer zone(s) until the qualified biologist determines that the young have successfully
fledged, and the nest is inactive. Per CDFW
recommendations, a buffer of 500 feet shall be set for listed species and birds of prey, and a buffer of 100 to 300 feet shall be set for unlisted songbirds.

BIO-3 Milkweed Survey: During the NBS, the biologist should scan the Project site for milkweed plants supportive of Monarch butterflies. Monarch butterflies have a low
potential to occur on the Project site as no milkweed plants were observed during the January field survey. However, the milkweed bloom from April to July, and if any milkweed plants are observed during this timeframe, the plants
should be inspected for monarch pupae. If any pupae are identified, the host plant(s) should be marked, and, at the biologist's discretion, a no -work buffer zone around each plant should be established until the pupae complete the metamorphosis and leave the plant.
CULTURAL RESOURCES
CUL-1 A qualified archaeologist and ACBCI tribal monitors shall be on -site during all ground disturbing activities. The monitors shall be empowered to stop or redirect equipment if resources are identified.
The monitors shall quickly identify the resource, determine its significance, and determine if any additional investigation is necessary. The archaeologist and tribal monitor shall determine when monitoring activities can be suspended.
CUL-2 If resources are identified during monitoring activities, the qualified archaeologist and ACBCI tribal monitor shall determine whether they should be reburied on site, or curated with the ACBCI.
The following mitigation measures will only be implemented if ACBCI does not provide monitoring for the Project:
CUL-3 Prior to the issuance of grading permits, the applicant shall enter into a Tribal Monitoring Agreement with the Morongo Band of Mission Indians for the project. The provisions of CUL-1 and CUL-2 shall otherwise apply.
CUL-4 The Project archaeologist shall prepare a Cultural Resource Management Plan (CRMP) and/or Archaeological
Monitoring and Treatment Plan (AMTP) to address the details, timing, and responsibilities of all archaeological and cultural resource activities that occur on the project site for submittal to the Morongo Band. The CRMP and/or AMTP shall include provisions for a pre - construction meeting with the Project contractor, disposition of identified resources, and reburial or curation with the ACBCI.

GEOLOGY AND SOILS
GEO-1 Per the Geotechnical Investigation, specific guidelines are provided to mitigate potential impacts resulting from site- specific poorly graded soil, seismic -related unstable soil, seismic ground shaking, and hazards from rock falls
induced by seismic activity. In addition, the Geotechnical Investigation provides recommendations regarding utility trench backfill, exterior concrete flatwork, on -site pavement design, soil corrosion potential, and drainage.
Development of the Project shall adhere to the
recommendations provided by the Geotechnical
Investigation as required by the City prior to issuance of grading and building permits.

6.1. Climate Risk Summary
Cal -Adapt midcentury 2040-2059 average projections for four hazards are reported below for your project location. These are under Representation Concentration Pathway (RCP) 8.5 which assumes GHG emissions will continue to rise strongly through 2050 and then plateau around 2100.

Temperature and Extreme Heat data are for grid cell in which your project are located. The projection is based on the 98th historical percentile of daily maximum/minimum temperatures from observed historical data (32 climate model ensemble from Cal -Adapt, 2040-2059 average under RCP 8.5). Each grid cell is 6 kilometers (km) by 6 km, or 3.7 miles (mi) by 3.7 mi.
Extreme Precipitation data are for the grid cell in which your project are located. The threshold of 20 mm is equivalent to about 3/4 an inch of rain, which would be light to moderate rainfall if received over a full day or heavy rain if received over a period of 2 to 4 hours. Each grid cell is 6 kilometers (km) by 6 km, or 3.7 miles (mi) by 3.7 mi.
Sea Level Rise data are for the grid cell in which your project are located. The projections are from Radke et al. (2017), as reported in Cal -Adapt (Radke et al., 2017, CEC-500-2017-008), and consider inundation location and depth for the San Francisco Bay, the Sacramento -San Joaquin River Delta and California coast resulting different increments of sea level rise coupled with extreme storm events. Users may select from four scenarios to view the range in potential inundation depth for the grid cell. The four scenarios are: No rise, 0.5 meter, 1.0 meter, 1.41 meters Wildfire data are for the grid cell in which your project are located. The projections are from UC Davis, as reported in Cal -Adapt (2040-2059 average under RCP 8.5), and consider historical data of climate, vegetation, population density, and large (> 400 ha) fire history. Users may select from four model simulations to view the range in potential wildfire probabilities for the grid cell. The four simulations make different assumptions about expected rainfall and temperature are: Warmer/drier (HadGEM2-ES), Cooler/wetter (CNRM-CM5), Average conditions (CanESM2), Range of different rainfall and temperature possibilities (MIROC5). Each grid cell is 6 kilometers (km) by 6 km, or 3.7 miles (mi) by 3.7 mi.

Justification
Construction: Dust From Material Movement
Operations: Vehicle Data
Based on the grading plan, 350 cu would be exported and 450 cy would be imported as a result of cutting into the rocky hillside.
Existing parking lot will be removed. It is assumed the old asphalt would be removed from the site. (47,960 sf x 0.33333 = 15,986.5 / 27 = 592 cubic yards) The Museum ('library") is the only land use that would generate the trips. 150 daily trips is based on ITE Land Use where the peak number of trips is 15. Peak trips is @ 10% of daily total.
Operations: Fleet Mix
The museum (Library) generates the traffic.
Construction: Trips and VMT
Paving haul trips. 57101 sf to be paved x 0.33333 = 19003 cu ft / 27 = 703 cu yds / 16 cy per truck = 44 total trucks / 10 days = 4 trucks or trips per day.
Construction: Construction Phases
Reduced demolition to 10 since it involves removal of parking lot. Added days to grading since it involves removal of rick hillside. Removed 15 days from building construction. 1609

1.0 INTRODUCTION
At the request of Terra Nova Planning & Research, this biological resources assessment report (BRAR) and Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (CVMSHCP) consistency analysis was prepared by WSP USA, Inc. (WSP) for the proposed Howard Wildlife Museum project in Rancho Mirage, Riverside County, California. Information contained herein is intended to be used for compliance with the CVMSHCP, the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and other relevant environmental regulations.
2.0 PROJECT SITE/ PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The 7.20 -acre project site is generally located north of Country Club Drive, south of Ramon Road, east of Highway 111, and west of Bob Hope Drive (Figure 1). The project site is located within Section 2, Township 5 East, Range 5 South, United States Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5' Cathedral City, Calif. Topographic Quadrangle (Figure 2). Elevations range between approximately 86.0 to 112.5 meters (m) (282 to 370 feet [ft]) above mean sea level. The project is more specifically located south of Braemar Dr., east of Highway 111, north of Mirage Cover Dr., and west of Golden State St. in the city of Rancho Mirage, Riverside County, California. The Assessor's Parcel Numbers (APNs) are APN 689-040-023, 689-040-025, and 689-040-028.
The proposed project includes the development of a 22,012 square foot wildlife museum and associated infrastructure.
3.0 REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
3.1 Federal Endangered Species Act
The United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the National Marine Fisheries Service are the designated federal agencies accountable for administering the federal Endangered Species Act (FESA). The FESA defines species as "endangered" or "threatened" and provides regulatory protection at the federal level.
• Section 9 of the FESA prohibits the "take" of listed (i.e., endangered or threatened) species.
The FESA definition of take is "to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, collect, or attempt to engage in such conduct." Recognizing that take cannot always be avoided, Section 10(a) includes provisions for take that is incidental to, but not the purpose of, otherwise lawful activities. Specifically, Section 10(a)(1)(A) permits (authorized take permits) are issued for scientific purposes Section 10(a)(1)(B) permits (incidental take permits) are issued for the incidental take of listed species that does not jeopardize the species.

• Section 7 (a)(2) requires federal agencies to evaluate the proposed project with respect to listed or proposed listed, species and their respective critical habitat (if applicable). Federal agencies must employ programs for the conservation of listed species and are prohibited from authorizing, funding, or carrying out any action that would jeopardize a listed species or destroy or modify its "critical habitat." As defined by the FESA, "individuals, organizations, states, local governments, and other nonfederal entities are affected by the designation of critical habitat only if their actions occur on federal lands, require a federal permit, license, or other authorization, or involve federal funding. • Section 10(a) of the FESA authorizes the issuance of incidental take permits and establishes standards for the content of habitat conservation plans (HCP). The CVMSHCP is an HCP, see discussion below.
3.2 Federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act
Treaties signed by the United States, Great Britain, Mexico, Japan and the countries of the former Soviet Union make it unlawful to pursue, capture, kill, and/or possess, or attempt to engage in any such conduct to any migratory bird, nest, egg or parts thereof listed in this document. The Secretary of the Interior can issue permits for incidental take of migratory bird species. The Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) also allows the Secretary of the Interior to grant permits for specific actions for the incidental take of these protected migratory bird species, but this rarely occurs.
3.3 Clean Water Act
Waters of the United States
On August 29, 2023, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of the Army issued a final rule amending the "Revised Definition of 'Waters of the United States," initially published in the Federal Register on January 18, 2023. This amendment aligns the definition of "waters of the United States" (WOTUS) with the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in the case of Sackett v. Environmental Protection Agency on May 25, 2023. The Supreme Court deemed certain parts of the January 2023 Rule invalid based on its interpretation of the CWA in the Sackett decision. Consequently, the agencies have modified key elements of the regulatory text to comply with the Court's ruling. The conforming rule, titled "Revised Definition of 'Waters of the United States'; Conforming," was published in the Federal Register and became effective on September 8, 2023.
Furthermore, due to ongoing litigation, the January 2023 Rule is currently not in effect in certain states and for certain parties. The agencies are applying the January 2023 Rule, as amended by the conforming rule, in 23 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Territories. In the remaining 27 states and for specific parties, the agencies are interpreting WOTUS in accordance with the Howard Wildlife Museum Project BRAR

M arch 2025
pre -2015 regulatory framework and the Supreme Court's decision in Sackett until further notice.
To summarize some of the most applicable highlights, the agencies' new rule defines WOTUSas:
Categories of Jurisdictional Waters
1) Waters which are:
(i) Currently used, or were used in the past, or may be susceptible to use in interstate or foreign commerce, including all waters which are subject to the ebb and flow of the tide; (ii) The territorial seas; or
(iii) Interstate waters;
(2) Impoundments of waters otherwise defined aswaters of the United States under this definition, other than impoundments of waters identified under paragraph (a)(5) of this section; (3) Tributaries of waters identified in paragraph (a)(1) or (2) of this section that are relatively permanent, standing or continuously flowing bodies of water; (4) Wetlands adjacent to the following waters:
(i) Waters identified in paragraph (a)(1) of this section; or (ii) Relatively permanent, standing or continuously flowing bodies of water identified in paragraph (a)(2) or (a)(3) of this section and with a continuous surface connection to those waters; (5) Intrastate lakes and ponds, streams, or wetlands not identified in paragraphs (a)(1) through (4) of this section that are relatively permanent, standing or continuously flowing bodies of water with a continuous surface connection to the waters identified in paragraph (a)(1) or (a)(3) of this section.
Rght exclusions from the definition of WOTUS are codified at paragraph (b), and key terms are defined at paragraph (c). "Adjacent" is defined at (c)(2) as "having a continuous surface connection."
3.3.1 Regional Water Quality Control Board
The Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) regulates activities pursuant to Section 401(a)(1) of the CWA. Section 401 of the CWA specifies that certification from the State is required for any applicant requesting a federal license or permit to conduct any activity including, but not limited to, the construction or operation of facilitiesthat may result in any discharge into navigable waters. Through the Porter Cologne Water Quality Control Act, the RWQCB asserts jurisdiction Howard Wildlife Museum Project BRAR
1616
Biological Resources Assessment & CUMSHCP Consistency Analysis Report Howard Wildlife Museum Project
M arch 2025
over Waters of the State of California (WSC) which is generally the same as WUS but may also include isolated waterbodies. The Porter Cologne Act defines WSC as "surface water or ground water, including saline waters, within the boundaries of the state."
3.3.2 California Environmental Quality Act
The basic goal of the CEQA is to maintain a high -quality environment now and in the future and the specific goals are for California's public agencies to:
1) Identify the significant environmental effects of their actions; and, either 2) Avoid those significant environmental effects, where feasible; or 3) Mitigate those significant environmental effects, where feasible.
The CEQA applies to "projects" proposed to be undertaken or requiring approval by State and local government agencies. Projects are activities which have the potential to have a physical impact on the environment and may include the enactment of zoning ordinances, the issuance of conditional use permits and the approval of tentative subdivision maps. Where a project requires approvals from more than one public agency, the CEQA requires one of these public agencies to serve as the "lead agency."
A "lead agency" must complete the environmental review process required by the CEQA. The most basic steps of the environmental review process are:
1) Determine if the activity is a "project" subject to the CEQA; 2) Determine if the "project" is exempt from the CEQA;
3) Perform an Initial Study to identify the environmental impacts of the project and determine whether the identified impacts are "significant". Based on its findings of "significance", the lead agency prepares one of the following environmental review documents:
a) Negative Declaration if it finds no "significant" impacts; b) Mitigated Negative Declaration if it finds "significant" impacts but revises the project to avoid or mitigate those significant impacts; c) Environmental Impact Report (RR) if it finds "significant" impacts.
While there is no ironclad definition of "significance", Article 5 of the CEQA Guidelines provides criteria to lead agencies in determining whether a project may have significant effects.
The purpose of an OR is to provide State and local agencies and the general public with detailed information on the potentially significant environmental effects which a proposed project is likely Howard Wildlife Museum Project BRAR
1617
Biological Resources Assessment & CVMSHCPConsistency Analysis Report Howard Wildlife Museum Project
March 2025
to have and to list ways in which the significant environmental effects may be minimized and indicate alternatives to the project.
3.3.3 Section 2081 of the State Fish and Game Code
Under Section 2081 of the California Fish and Game Code (FGC), the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) authorizes individuals or public agencies to import, export, take, or possess state endangered, threatened, or candidate species in California through permits or memoranda of understanding. These acts, which are otherwise prohibited, may be authorized through permits or "memoranda of understanding" if (1) the take is incidental to otherwise lawful activities, (2) impacts of the take are minimized and fully mitigated, (3) the permit is consistent with regulations adopted in accordance with any recovery plan for the species in question, and (4) the applicant ensures suitable funding to implement the measures required by the CDFW. The CDFW shall make this determination based on the best scientific information reasonably available and shall include consideration of the species' capability to survive and reproduce.
3.3.4 Sections 3503, 3505.5, & 3513 of the State Fish and Game Code Section 3503 of the FGC makes it unlawful to take, possess, or needlessly destroy the nest or eggs of any bird. Section 3505.5 makes it unlawful to take, possess, or destroy any birds in the order Falconiformes or Strigiformes (birds -of -prey, i.e.: owls, hawks, eagles, etc.) or to take, possess, or destroy the nest or eggs of any bird -of -prey. Section 3513 makes it unlawful to take or possess any migratory nongame bird as designated in the MBTA.
3.4 Regional
3.4.1 Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan Finalized in October 2008, the CVMSHCP is a comprehensive, regional plan that addresses the conservation needs of 27 species of native flora and fauna and 24 natural vegetation communities occurring throughout the Coachella Valley region of western Riverside County, California. Permits for the CVMSHCP were issued by the CDFW on September 9, 2008 and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) on October 1, 2008 (TE104604-0). The CVMSHCP serves two primary purposes: Balancing environmental protection and economic development objectives in the CVMSHCP area and simplifying compliance with endangered species related laws. The CVMSHCP accomplishes this by conserving unfragmented habitat to permanently protect and secure viable populations of the covered species. The covered species include those plants and animals that are either currently listed as threatened or endangered, are proposed for listing, or are believed by an appointed Scientific Advisory Committee, USFWS and CDFW, to have a high probability of being proposed for listing in the future if not provided protection by the CVMSHCP. The goal of the CVMSHCP is to meet the requirements of the state and federal endangered species acts, while at Howard Wildlife Museum Project BRAR

the same time allowing for the economic growth (land development) within the plan area without significant delay or hidden costs. Under the CVMSHCP, land development/mitigation fees are collected from all new development projects occurring in the plan area. The purpose of this fee is to support the assembly of a preserve system for the covered species and natural vegetation communities within areas identified as having high conservation value.
4.0 METHODS
4.1 Literature Review
In preparation for the field surveys, a literature search was conducted to identify special status biological resources known from the vicinity of the project site. In the context of this report, and for the purpose of this assessment, vicinity is defined as areas within a 5 -mile radius of the project site.
The literature search included a review of the following documents:
• California Natural Diversity Data Base (CNDDB) RareFind 5 (CDFW 2025a) • Special Animals List (CDFW 2025b)
• California Native Plant Society's (CNPS) Inventory of Rare, Threatened, and Endangered Plants of California (CNPS2025)
• Information for Planning and Consultation (IPaC) Resources List (USFWS 2025) • CVMSHCP (Coachella Valley Conservation Commission "CVCC" 2025) • United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). 2025. Web Soil Survey
• USGS7.5' Cathedral City, La Quinta, Myoma, Palm View Peak, Rancho Mirage, and Palm Springs, Calif. quadrangles (USGS2018, USGS2021a, USGS2021b, USGS2021c, USGS 2021d, USGS 2021e)
Scientific nomenclature for this document follows standard reference sources: For plant communities, CVMSHCP (CVCC 2025); for flora, Jepson eFlora (2025) and the USDA NRCS PLANTS Database (2025); for amphibians, reptiles, and mammals, CDFW (2016); and for birds, California Bird Records Committee (2025).
4.2 Field Assessment
The field assessment was conducted between the hours of 0845 and 1100 on 27 January 2025 by WSP biologist Emily R Urquidi and WSP senior biologist Michael D. Wilcox. On -site suitable habitat was assessed based on the presence of constituent habitat elements (e.g., soils, vegetation and topography) characteristic of the potentially occurring special status biological resources determined by the literature review. The entire site and adjacent properties (where accessible) were assessed on foot to record pertinent field data and current site conditions. All on -site flora Howard Wildlife Museum Project BRAR

and fauna observed or otherwise detected (e.g., vocalizations, presence of scat, tracks, and/or bones) during the assessment were recorded in field notes and are included in AppendicesA and B. General weather and site conditions were also recorded at the beginning and end of the survey.
Temperatures and wind speeds were recorded with a handheld Kestrel 3500 anemometer. Percent cloud cover was visually estimated.
5.0 RESULTS
The 7.20 -acre project site currently consists of a combination of a parking lot, existing development, a rocky hillside with creosote bush scrub, and a largely barren area that has been graded/scraped and cleared of nearly all vegetation, with the exception of landscaped species.
Soils are largely stabilized, compacted and disturbed. Existing site disturbances observed on -site included development, vegetation clearance, grading/scraping, dumping, minor dumping and accumulation of roadside trash (minor).
Commercial developments and modular home communities occur to the north. The lands to the east are developed with multifamily complexes and residential buildings. The lands to the south are developed with residential buildings, but beyond the development stands the Santa Rosa mountains. To the west there is mostly uninterrupted access (divided by Highway 111) to the Santa Rosa Mountains.
5.1 Weather Conditions
Weather conditions during the assessment included partly cloudy skies with cloud cover ranging between 30-90 percent. The temperatures ranged from 57 to 62 degrees Fahrenheit (°F). Winds were calm with speeds ranging 0 to 3 miles per hour (mph). There appeared to be a light rain prior to the site assessment.
5.2 Topography, Soils and Waters
Existing topography is largely flat, but increases in elevation up a rocky hillside which exists on the eastern side of the project site. The site ranges in elevation between 86.0 to 112.5 meters (m) (282-370 feet [ft]) above mean sea level. Mapped soils (USDA NRCS2025) include: Coachella fine sand, 0-2% slopes (CpA) and a rock outcrop that roughly covers 50% of the site (Figure 3).
Coachella series soils are well -drained soils that are moderately rapidly permeable and occur in lacustrine basins at elevations from 230 feet below sea level to 800 feet above sea level. Although well drained, perched water tables are common in areas that are irrigated. Sediments originate largely from igneous rocks. Slopes are nearly level to gently sloping. The climate is arid with average annual rainfall ranging from 2 to 4 inches, occurring in light winter rains and/or high intensity summer monsoon thunderstorms (USDA NRCS 2025).
Howard Wildlife Museum Project BRAR
1620

on -site soils are highly disturbed and artificially compacted, as they have been scraped, cleared and graded. The rock outcrop appears to have also been graded at the peak and several existing hiking trails occur throughout. No streams, washes, springs, active drifts, sand dunes, or natural clay lenses were observed.
5.3 Vegetation
The northwestern portion of the site is currently developed and contains an existing parking lot, sparse, irrigated ornamental vegetation and artificial lighting. The eastern portion of the site is dominated by a rocky hillside. Overall, the vegetative community on the rocky hillside would be described as Larrea tridentata shrubland alliance (creosote bush scrub), while the rest of the site could be described as disturbed/developed/urban (Figure 4). Vegetation on the hillside was sparse, and mainly composed of creosote bush , narrow leaved bedstraw (Galium angustifolium), and desert needle grass (Stipa speciosa). This rocky area covers approximately 1/2 of the site. The remaining western and southern portions of the site are flat and consist of a hard, compacted soil that has been graded of vegetation, and ornamental species planted along the roadside. The dominant perennial plant species on -site was creosote bush. Other notable, but sparse native perennials included California fan palm (Washingtonia filifera), brittlebush (Encelia farinosa), and white bursage (Ambrosia dumosa). Dominant native herbaceous species included narrow leaved bedstraw and desert needle grass. Nonnative herbaceous plants included Mediterranean grass (Schismus barbatus), Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon), and puncture vine (Tribulusterrestris). A complete list of the plant species observed on -site is included in Appendix A.
No natural wetland, riparian or otherwise special -status vegetation communities were observed on -site. A full list of the plant species observed during the assessment, including common and scientific names, is appended to this report (Appendix A).
5.4 Wildlife
Vertebrate wildlife directly observed and/or detected otherwise (e.g., scat, bones, tracks, feathers, burrows, etc.) during the surveys was not diverse or abundant, limited to 14 species common to the region. This included one reptile, 11 birds and two mammals (Appendix B).
The one reptile species observed on -site include the side -blotched lizard (Uta stansburiana).
Representative bird species observed on -site included but were not limited to: mourning dove (Zenaida macroura), red -shouldered hawk (Buteo lineatus), American kestrel (Falco sparverius), common raven (Corvus corax), northern mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos), house finch (Haemorhous mexicanus), Western blue bird (Scalia mexicana), Costa's hummingbird (Calypte costae), Say's phoebe (Sayornis saya), yellow-rumped warbler (Setophaga coronata), and American crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos). The two mammals observed and/or detected on -site included Howard Wildlife Museum Project BRAR
1621

M arch 2025
Botta's pocket gopher (Thomomys bottae) and wood rat (Neotoma sp.). A complete list of the vertebrate species observed or detected on -site is included as Appendix B.
It should be noted that relatively short-term biological studies of this nature are often limited by the seasonality of annual plants, the migratory habits of many birds, the fossorial and nocturnal habits of many mammals and reptiles, as well as the timing of field visit. A complete inventory of the wildlife on the site would require extensive year-round surveys for birds, amphibians, and reptiles, and additional surveys, such as placement of scent stations or tracking stations, for the detection of nocturnal mammals. Knowledge of habitat associations, natural history, seasonality, and distribution is essential in the assessment of the potential for occurrence of the various special status plants and animals known to occur throughout the Coachella Valley. For these reasons, other common and special status species that were not observed on -site may also have the potential to occur based on their geographic distribution, habitat preferences and the regional location of the site. The following section summarizes information on special status biological resources known to occur in the vicinity of the project site.
5.5 Coachella Valley Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Program The project site is located within Rancho Mirage, which is a signatory to the CVMSHCP. The site is not within any CVMSHCP-designated conservation areas. The Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains Conservation Area is located approximately 0.15 mi to the west of the site (Figure 5).
The site does not contain CVMSHCP modeled habitats for any covered or special status species, however it is within one mile of critical Peninsular bighorn sheep habitat (Figure 6). The site is also within a mile of known records for flat -tailed horned lizard (Phrynosoma mcallii) and Coachella Valley milk -vetch (Astragalus lentiginosus var. coachellae) (Figure 7). No CVMSHCP-designated wildlife corridors or biological linkages are mapped on the project site.
5.6 Special Status Biological Resources
Plant or animal taxa may be considered "sensitive" or as having "special status" due to declining populations, vulnerability to habitat change, or because they have restricted ranges. Some are listed as threatened or endangered by the USFWS or by the CDFW and are protected by the federal and state Endangered Species acts. Others have been identified as sensitive or as special - status species by the USFWS, the CDFW, or by private conservation organizations, including the CNPS. Unlisted sensitive species do not have formal state or federal status but may nevertheless be considered significant under the CEQA. The CVMSHCP provides conservation for twenty-seven (27) imperiled plant and animal species (5 plants, 2 insects, 1 amphibian, 3 reptiles, 11 birds, and 5 mammals). These include federal and state -listed species, federal and California Species of Concern, and species on the CNPS sensitive species lists. CVMSHCP covered species are Howard Wildlife Museum Project BRAR

designated on the tables below. The site is not within designated critical habitat for any special status plants or wildlife.
The review of the CNDDB, CNPS Online Inventory of Rare Plants and IPaC Resources List resulted in the identification of 103 special status biological resources known to occur in the vicinity (within an approximate 5 -mile radius) of the project site. The 103 special status biological resources known from the vicinity included 62 plants, one vegetation communities, five invertebrates, one fish, four reptiles, 20 birds and 10 mammals. Tables 1 through 7 provide a complete list of the special status biological resources, their associated legal status, and their respective on -site occurrence potentials.
Tables 1 through 7 summarize information on all special status species that have been reported within the vicinity (5 -mile radius) or that occur or are considered to have some potential to occur on -site based on geographic distribution, elevational parameters and/or presence of potentially suitable habitat. Occurrence probability is based on the best available information and the collective expertise of WSP biologists. These tables provide the names, legal or conservation status, general habitat associations, and the probability of occurrence for each of these species.
