Full Text of Applicable Mitigation Measures
Mitigation Measure AQ-1: Reduce Construction Emissions to Below PCAPCD NOX Thresholds The following measures, or others that are necessary to achieve the construction NOX target of 82 lbs/day, will be implemented to ensure construction-related emissions do not exceed PCAPCD’s NOX threshold:
Require the usage of EPA rated Tier 4 interim or higher rated construction equipment. In general, replacing Tier 2 Equipment with Tier 4 interim rated equipment will reduce NOX emissions by 68% (94%, if using Tier 4 final rated equipment) (South Coast Air Quality Management District 2010).
Require the usage of equipment that is retrofitted with Diesel Oxidation Catalysts or Selective Catalytic Reduction technology. In general, equipment that is retrofitted with this technology emits 40% less NOX than conventional equipment.
Work with the PCAPCD to purchase NOX credits to offset remaining NOX construction emissions exceeding PCAPCD thresholds.
Mitigation Measure BIO-1: Install Fencing and/or Flagging to Protect Sensitive Biological Resources
Prior to construction, the County’s contractor will install high-visibility orange construction fencing and/or flagging, as appropriate, along the perimeter of the work area adjacent to Environmentally Sensitive Areas. Where specific buffer distances are required for sensitive biological resources (e.g., wetlands, sensitive species habitats, active bird nests, protected trees), buffer distances will be specified under the corresponding measures below. The County will ensure that the final construction plans show the locations where fencing will be installed. The plans will also define the fencing installation procedure. The County or contractor (at the discretion of the County) will ensure that the fencing is maintained throughout the duration of the construction period. If the fencing is removed, damaged, or otherwise compromised during the construction period, construction activities will cease until the fencing is repaired or replaced. The project’s special provisions package will provide clear language regarding acceptable fencing material and prohibited construction-related activities, vehicle operation, material and equipment storage, and other surface-disturbing activities within ESAs. A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans.
Mitigation Measure BIO-2: Conduct Mandatory Environmental Awareness Training for Construction Personnel
Before any work occurs in the project area, including grading, the County will retain a qualified biologist (familiar with the resources to be protected) to conduct a mandatory contractor/worker environmental awareness training for construction personnel. The awareness training will be provided to all construction personnel (contractors and subcontractors) to brief them on the need to avoid effects on sensitive biological resources (e.g., wetlands, sensitive species, nesting birds, protected trees) adjacent to construction areas and the penalties for not complying with applicable state and federal laws and permit requirements. The biologist will inform all construction personnel 410
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
about the life history and habitat requirements of sensitive species with potential for occurrence onsite, the importance of maintaining habitat, and the terms and conditions of the biological opinion “BO) or other authorizing document. Proof of this instruction will be submitted to the County, and other overseeing agencies (e.g., USFWS), as appropriate.
The environmental training also will cover general restrictions and guidelines that must be followed by all construction personnel to reduce or avoid effects on sensitive biological resources during project construction. The crew foreman will be responsible for ensuring that crew members adhere to these guidelines and restrictions, and that new personnel review the environmental training prior to starting work onsite. General restrictions and guidelines that must be followed by construction personnel are listed below.
Project-related vehicles will observe the posted speed limit on hard-surfaced roads and a 10 mile-per-hour speed limit on unpaved roads or access areas during travel on the project site. Project-related vehicles and construction equipment will restrict offroad travel to the designated construction area.
Vegetation clearing and construction operations will be limited to the minimum necessary in areas of temporary access work areas and staging.
All food-related trash will be disposed of in closed containers and removed from the project site at least once a week during the construction period. Construction personnel will not feed or otherwise attract wildlife to the project site.
No pets or firearms will be allowed on the project site. To prevent possible resource damage from hazardous materials such as motor oil or gasoline, construction personnel will not service vehicles or construction equipment outside designated staging areas.
The training will also include identifying the BMPs written into construction specifications for avoiding and minimizing the introduction and spread of invasive plants, and the rationale behind their implementation during project construction. A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans
Mitigation Measure BIO-3: Retain a Biologist to Conduct Periodic Monitoring during Construction in Sensitive Habitats
The County will retain a qualified biologist to conduct weekly site visits during any ground- disturbing activities that occur within or adjacent to ESAs (e.g., wetlands, sensitive species habitat, active bird nests, protected trees). The purpose of the site visits is to ensure that measures identified in this report are properly implemented to avoid and minimize effects on sensitive biological resources and to ensure the project complies with all applicable permit requirements and agency conditions of approval. The biologist will ensure that fencing around ESAs remains in place during construction and that no construction personnel, equipment, or runoff/sediment from the construction area enters ESAs.

Mitigation Measure BIO-4: Protect Water Quality and Minimize Sedimentation Runoff in Wetlands and Other Waters outside the Project Limits
The County and its construction contractor will comply with all construction site BMPs specified in the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and any other permit conditions to minimize introduction of construction-related contaminants and sedimentation runoff. Broadly, these BMPs will address soil stabilization, sediment control, wind erosion control, vehicle tracking control, non- storm water management, and waste management practices. The BMPs will be based on the best conventional and best available technology.
The proposed project is subject to stormwater quality regulations established under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), described in Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 402.
In California, the NPDES program requires that any construction activity disturbing 1 or more acres comply with the statewide General Permit, as authorized by the State Water Resources Control Board. The General Permit requires elimination or minimization of nonstormwater discharges from construction sites and the development and implementation of a SWPPP for the site. Below are the primary elements of the SWPPP.
Description of site characteristics—including runoff and overland characteristics and soil erosion hazard—and construction procedures.
Guidelines for proper application of erosion and sediment control BMPs. Description of measures to prevent and control toxic materials spills. Description of construction site housekeeping practices.
In addition to these primary elements, the SWPPP also specifies that the extent of soil and vegetative disturbance would be minimized by control fencing or other means and that the extent of soil disturbed at any given time would be minimized. The SWPPP must be retained at the construction site.
The BMPs will be selected to achieve maximum sediment removal and represent the best available technology that is economically achievable and are subject to review and approval by the County.
The County will perform routine inspections of the construction area to verify the BMPs are properly implemented and maintained. The County will notify contractors immediately if there is a noncompliance issue and will require compliance.
The BMPs will include, but are not limited to, the following. All earthwork in and around wetlands or other waters will occur in the dry season. Earthwork will not occur from the first day of the first significant rain (1 inch or greater) until June 1, or until wetlands remain dry for 72 hours and no significant rain is forecast on the day of such ground disturbance.
Equipment used in and around drainages and wetlands will be in good working order and free of dripping or leaking engine fluids. All vehicle maintenance will be performed at least 300 feet from all streams. Any necessary equipment washing will be carried out where the water cannot flow into drainages or wetlands.
412
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
The contractor will be required to develop a hazardous material spill prevention control and countermeasure plan before construction begins. The plan will include strict onsite handling rules to keep construction and maintenance materials from entering wetlands and other waters, including procedures related to refueling, operating, storing and staging construction equipment and preventing and responding to spills. The plan will also identify the parties responsible for monitoring the spill response. During construction, any spills will be cleaned up immediately according to the spill prevention and countermeasure plan. The County will review and approve the contractors’ hazardous material spill prevention control and countermeasure plan before allowing construction to begin.
The following types of materials will not be rinsed or washed into the streets, shoulder areas, or gutters: concrete; solvents and adhesives; thinners; paints; fuels; sawdust; dirt; gasoline; asphalt and concrete saw slurry; heavily chlorinated water.
Any surplus concrete rubble, asphalt, or other rubble from construction will be taken to a local landfill.
An erosion and sediment control plan will be prepared and implemented for the project. It will include the following provisions and protocols. The SWPPP for the project will detail the applications and type of measures and the allowable exposure of unprotected soils. Make discharge from dewatering operations, if needed, and runoff from disturbed areas conform to the water quality requirements of the waste discharge permit issued by the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board.
Apply temporary erosion control measures, such as sandbagged silt fences, throughout construction of the proposed project and remove after the working area is stabilized or as directed by the engineer. Soil exposure will be minimized through use of temporary BMPs, groundcover, and stabilization measures. Exposed dust-producing surfaces will be sprinkled daily, if necessary, until wet. Sprinkling will be controlled to avoid producing runoff. Paved roads will be swept daily following construction activities. Conduct periodic maintenance of erosion and sediment control measures. Plant an appropriate seed mix of native or naturalized species on disturbed areas upon completion of construction.
Cover or apply nontoxic soil stabilizers to inactive construction areas (previously graded areas inactive for 10 days or more) that could contribute sediment to waterways. Enclose and cover exposed stockpiles of dirt or other loose, granular construction materials that could contribute sediment to waterways. Material stockpiles will be located in non- traffic areas only. Side slopes will not be steeper than 2:1. All stockpile areas will be surrounded by a filter fabric fence and interceptor dike. Contain soil and filter runoff from disturbed areas by berms, vegetated filters, silt fencing, straw wattle, plastic sheeting, catch basins, or other means necessary to prevent the escape of sediment from the disturbed area.
Use other temporary erosion control measures (such as silt fences, staked straw bales/wattles, silt/sediment basins and traps, check dams, geofabric, sandbag dikes, and 413
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
temporary re-vegetation or other ground cover) to control erosion from disturbed areas as necessary.
Avoid earth or organic material from being deposited or placed where it may be directly carried into nearby wetlands or other waters.
The County will also obtain a 401 Water Quality Certification from the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board, and a Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement from the CDFW, both of which may contain additional BMPs and water quality measures to ensure the protection of water quality.
Mitigation Measure BIO-5: Avoid and Minimize Potential Indirect Impacts on Vernal Pool Fairy Shrimp and Vernal Pool Tadpole Shrimp Habitat
(applicable to remaining Placer Parkway Phase I buildout, not construction of the Interim Condition)
The following avoidance and minimization measures will be implemented prior to and during construction to protect vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat outside the project footprint. Ground disturbance within 250 feet of suitable vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat (i.e., vernal pools and wetland swales) will be avoided from the first day of the first significant rain (1 inch or greater) until June 1, or until suitable wetlands remain dry for 72 hours and no significant rain is forecast on the day of such ground disturbance. Consistent with Mitigation Measure BIO-1, a qualified biologist will guide the installation of exclusion fencing prior to the start of ground disturbing activities (including staging and grading). The exclusion fencing will be installed along the edge of the construction limits and in a manner that minimizes disturbance of adjacent wetlands. The exclusion fencing will consist of orange construction barrier and erosion control fencing or combination fencing and will be installed by the construction contractor.
No herbicide will be applied within 100 feet of aquatic habitat, except when applied to cut stumps or frilled stems or injected into stems. No broadcast applications will be applied.
Mitigation Measure BIO-6: Compensate for Direct and Indirect Impacts on Vernal Pool Fairy Shrimp and Vernal Pool Tadpole Shrimp Habitat
(applicable to remaining Placer Parkway Phase I buildout, not construction of the Interim Condition)
The County will compensate for the permanent loss of up to 1.40 acres and temporary loss of up to
0.94 acre of suitable habitat (vernal pools and vernal swales) for vernal pool fairy shrimp.
Consistent with the County’s current working draft of the PCCP, direct impacts on vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat will be mitigated at a minimum 2.25:1 ratio (1 acre preserved and 1.25 acre restored for every 1 acre affected). The exact acreage and location of compensatory mitigation will be based on final revisions to the project design and consultation with USFWS. Compensatory mitigation can be accomplished through one or a combination of the following three options. Purchase the appropriate number and type of habitat credits at a USFWS-approved mitigation bank or conservation area.
414
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
Establish a conservation easement on a parcel(s) containing a sufficient amount of existing and restored vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat (based on minimum 2.25:1 ratio) and adaptively mange the mitigation lands consistent with the most current information on vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat requirements.
Mitigate for vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat through an approved habitat conservation plan (i.e., PCCP) if the plan is finalized prior to the start of construction.
Mitigation Measure BIO-7: Conduct Vegetation Removal during the Non-Breeding Season and Conduct Preconstruction Surveys for Swainson’s Hawk
The County will remove vegetation (including trees, shrubs, and grasses) during the non-breeding season for Swainson’s hawk (generally from September 16 to February 28), to the extent feasible.
If it is not feasible to remove all vegetation during the non-breeding season, then the County will retain a qualified wildlife biologist with knowledge of Swainson’s hawk to conduct nesting surveys before the start of construction. Surveys will be conducted during the nesting season (March 1 through September 15) in accordance with the Swainson’s Hawk Technical Advisory Committee’s methodology (May 31, 2000) within the methodology’s Survey Periods I, II, and III (March 1 through April 20) or according to updated methodologies as issued by CDFW. If construction will commence after March 1 but prior to April 5, then a minimum of two surveys will be conducted prior to the start of construction to determine whether Swainson’s hawk are nesting within the survey area. For phased construction, surveys will continue throughout the remainder of the survey period to cover areas not under active construction. If surveys conclude that Swainson’s hawk nests occur, and are occupied, the County will implement the following minimization measures. To prevent nest abandonment, the County will establish a minimum 1,000-foot no-disturbance buffer between the occupied nest and construction activities that occur during the nesting season (March 1 through September 15). The buffer distance may be reduced based on site- specific conditions or the nature of the construction activity (e.g., level of existing disturbance, location of the nest, status of nest and eggs/nestlings, and type and level of construction activity). The reduced buffer distance will be determined by a qualified biologist (with knowledge of the species) in coordination with CDFW.
If the Swainson’s hawk young fledge prior to September 15, project activities can proceed normally after a qualified biologist determines that the young are capable of independent survival (i.e., not being fed by parents).
Nest trees will not be removed, if feasible. If a nest tree (any tree that has an active nest during the year the impact is to occur) must be removed, tree removal will be between September 16 and February 28.
Mitigation Measure BIO-8: Compensate for Permanent Removal of Swainson’s Hawk Foraging Habitat
The County will compensate for the permanent removal of suitable foraging habitat for Swainson’s hawks by providing offsite habitat management lands as described in CDFW’s Staff Report Regarding Mitigation for Impacts to Swainson’s Hawks in the Central Valley of California (California Department of Fish and Game “994). The final acreage of offsite management lands to be provided 415
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
will depend on the distance between the project area and the nearest active nest site. The mitigation ratio varies from 0.5:1 to 1:1(dependent on the location of the closest known nest site) of habitat preserved for each acre lost. In lieu of acquiring offsite mitigation lands, the County may purchase mitigation credits for Swainson’s hawk foraging habitat from a suitable mitigation or conservation bank that sells upland habitat credits with habitat function equal or similar to lands that are permanently affected by the project. To determine the appropriate mitigation ratio, information on the nearest nest will be collected during preconstruction Swainson’s hawk surveys conducted under Mitigation Measure BIO-7. If no active nests are found during this survey, a search of the CNDDB will be conducted, and CDFW will be contacted to determine the nearest active nest (active within the previous 5 years).
In the event that the PCCP is in place prior to project construction, this compensation requirement will be considered met if the applicant pays mitigation fees for valley grassland habitat through the PCCP.
Mitigation Measure BIO-9: Conduct Preconstruction Surveys for Burrowing Owl and Establish No Activity Zones, if Necessary
A qualified biologist will conduct preconstruction take avoidance surveys for burrowing owl no less than 14 days prior to and within 24 hours of initiating ground-disturbing activities. The survey area will encompass the designated work area (including staging areas) and a 500-foot buffer around this area.
To the maximum extent feasible (i.e., where the construction footprint can be modified), construction activities within 500 feet of active burrowing owl burrows will be avoided during the nesting season (February 1 to August 31).
If an active burrow is identified near a proposed work area and work cannot be conducted outside of the nesting season (February 1 to August 31), a no-activity zone will be established by a qualified biologist and in coordination with CDFW. The no-activity zone will be large enough to avoid nest abandonment and will extend a minimum of 250 feet around the burrow.
If burrowing owls are present at the site during the non-breeding season (September 1 through January 31), a qualified biologist will establish a no-activity zone that extends a minimum of 150 feet around the burrow.
If the designated no-activity zone for either breeding or non-breeding burrowing owls cannot be established, a wildlife biologist experienced in burrowing owl behavior will evaluate site-specific conditions and, in coordination with CDFW, recommend a smaller buffer (if possible) that still minimizes the potential to disturb the owls (and is deemed to still allow reproductive success during the breeding season). The site-specific buffer will consider the type and extent of the proposed activity occurring near the occupied burrow, the duration and timing of the activity, the sensitivity and habituation of the owls, and the dissimilarity of the proposed activity to background activities.
If burrowing owls are present within the direct disturbance area and cannot be avoided during non- breeding season (generally September 1 through January 31), passive relocation techniques (e.g., installing one-way doors at burrow entrances) shall be used instead of trapping. Passive relocation may also be used during the breeding season (February 1 through August 30) if a qualified biologist, 416
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
coordinating with CDFW, determines through site surveillance and/or scoping that the burrow is not occupied by burrowing owl adults, young, or eggs. The one-way doors shall be left in place for a minimum of 1 week and monitored daily to insure that the owls have left the burrow. Excavation of the burrow shall be conducted using hand tools and a section of flexible plastic pipe (at least 3 inches in diameter) shall be inserted into the burrow tunnel to maintain an escape route for any animals that may be inside the burrow.
Destruction of unoccupied burrows outside the work area will be avoided and visible markers will be placed near burrows to ensure they are not collapsed.
A qualified biologist will conduct ongoing surveillance of the project parcels for burrowing owls during project activities. If additional owls are observed using burrows within 500 feet of construction, a qualified biologist will determine if the owl(s) would be affected by future construction and if additional exclusion zones are required.
Mitigation Measure BIO-10: Conduct Vegetation Removal during the Non-Breeding Season and Conduct Preconstruction Surveys for Nesting Migratory Birds and Raptors The County will remove vegetation during the non-breeding season for migratory birds and raptors (generally from September 1 to January 31), to the extent feasible.
If it is not feasible to remove vegetation during the non-breeding season, then the County will retain a qualified wildlife biologist with knowledge of the relevant species to conduct nesting surveys before the start of construction. The nesting surveys will be conducted in conjunction with Swainson’s hawk and burrowing owl surveys conducted for Mitigation Measures BIO-6 and BIO-8 and will include a minimum of two separate surveys to look for active migratory bird and raptor nests. Surveys will include a search of all trees and shrubs, wetland, and grassland vegetation that provide suitable nesting habitat in the construction area. In addition, a 500-foot area around the project area will be surveyed for nesting raptors. Surveys should occur during the height of the breeding season (March 1 to June 1) with one survey occurring within 30 days prior to construction and the second survey occurring within 1 week after of the start of construction. If no active nests are detected during these surveys, no additional measures are required.
If an active nest is found in the survey area, a no-disturbance buffer will be established around the site to avoid disturbance or destruction of the nest site until the end of the breeding season (August 31) or until after a qualified wildlife biologist determines that the young have fledged and moved out of the project area (this date varies by species). The extent of these buffers will be determined by the biologist in coordination with USFWS and CDFW and will depend on the level of construction disturbance, line-of-sight between the nest and the disturbance, ambient levels of noise and other disturbances, and other topographical or artificial barriers. Suitable buffer distances may vary between species.
Mitigation Measure CUL-1: Stop Work if Cultural Materials are Encountered During Ground- Disturbing Activities
If previously-unidentified cultural materials are encountered or unearthed during construction, consistent with Caltrans and County policies to avoid cultural resources, work in that area will halt until a qualified archaeologist can evaluate the nature and significance of the find and identify an 417
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
appropriate course of treatment, in consultation with Caltrans and the State Historic Preservation Office, as appropriate. Treatment could include data recovery, analysis, and curation. A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans.
Mitigation Measure CUL-2: Stop Work if Human Remains are Encountered During Ground- Disturbing Activities
In the event that human remains are discovered, the Placer County coroner will be notified immediately. If the coroner determines the remains to be Native American in origin, the coroner will be responsible for notifying the NAHC, which will appoint a “most likely descendent” “MLD) (Public Resources Code “PRC] Section 5097.99). The archaeological consultant, project applicant, Placer County, and MLD will make all reasonable efforts to develop an agreement for the dignified treatment of human remains and associated or unassociated funerary objects (State CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5[d]). The agreement should take into consideration the appropriate excavation, removal, recordation, analysis, custodianship, curation, and final disposition of the human remains and associated or unassociated funerary objects. The MLD will have 24 hours after notification by the NAHC to make their recommendation (PRC Section 5097.98). If the MLD does not agree to the reburial method, the project shall follow PRC Section 5097.98(b), which states, “The landowner or his or her authorized representative shall reinter the human remains and items associated with Native American burials with appropriate dignity on the property in a location not subject to further subsurface disturbance.” A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans.
Mitigation Measure GEO-1: Implement Temporary Construction Site BMPs The County will implement the temporary construction site BMPs identified in the project’s Storm Water Data Report (California Department of Transportation 2“14b). Whenever possible, earth- disturbing construction activities should not be scheduled during anticipated rain events.
Construction site BMPs should be installed prior to the start of construction or as early as feasibly possible during construction. Drainage Shed Areas will be protected in accordance with the Project’s pollution control measures. The construction site BMP strategy for this project will consist of implementing the following measures.
Soil stabilization measures including move-in/move-out (erosion control), temporary hydraulic mulch, temporary cover and temporary fence (type ESA).
Sediment control measures including temporary fiber rolls, temporary silt fence, and temporary drainage inlet protection.
Tracking control including stabilized construction entrances/exits and street sweeping. Non-stormwater management measures including concrete washout bins. General construction site management including training employees and subcontractors.
Training shall address the proper selection, deployment, and repair of construction site BMPs used within project limits.

The design of all construction BMPs will comply with the design requirements found in the Caltrans Storm Water Quality Handbooks: Project Planning and Design Guide and Construction Site Best Management Practices Manual.
Mitigation Measure GEO-2: Monitor Excavation and Earthmoving Activities Excavation and earthmoving in native soil and sediment in the project area will be monitored by a qualified professional under the supervision of a California licensed Professional Geologist. Moving of imported fill material does not require monitoring.
If paleontological resources are discovered during construction activities, specific steps to evaluate and salvage fossil specimens, document their scientific value, and store specimens in a recognized repository institution, as appropriate, will be taken. The detailed approach to implementation of this mitigation is provided in Chapter 8 of the PER/PPMP (California Department of Transportation 2“14a).
Mitigation Measure HAZ-2: Prepare and Implement Health and Safety Plan Consistent with the mitigation commitment in the Placer Parkway Corridor Preservation Tier 1 EIS/EIR, a Health and Safety Plan will be prepared by the contractor prior to construction. This plan will describe appropriate procedures to follow in the event that any contaminated soil or groundwater is encountered during construction activities. Any unknown substances should be tested, handled, and disposed of in accordance with appropriate federal, state, and local regulations.
Mitigation Measure NOI-1: Employ Noise-Reducing Construction Practices during Construction During construction, project proponents will employ best practices to reduce construction noise at noise-sensitive land uses. Implementation of this measure will ensure that construction noise levels, as applicable, do not exceed 45 dBA (interior one-hour Leq) during nighttime hours (10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.) for construction activities 350-feet or further from residential land uses.
Measures used to limit construction noise include the following:
Locating stationary equipment (e.g., generators, compressors, rock crushers, cement mixers, idling trucks) as far as possible from noise-sensitive land uses. Prohibiting gasoline or diesel engines from having unmuffled exhaust. Requiring that all construction equipment powered by gasoline or diesel engines have sound- control devices that are at least as effective as those originally provided by the manufacturer and that all equipment be operated and maintained to minimize noise generation. Preventing excessive noise by shutting down idle vehicles or equipment. Using noise-reducing enclosures around noise-generating equipment. Selecting haul routes that affect the fewest number of people.
Constructing barriers to block sound transmission to noise-sensitive land uses. The barriers shall be designed to obstruct the line of sight between the noise-sensitive land use and on-site construction equipment.

Mitigation Measure NOI-2. Limit Construction within 350-feet of Residential Uses In addition to the measures included in NOI-1, construction activities within 350 feet of residential uses will be limited to the hours between 7:00 am and 10:00 pm in order to ensure that construction noise levels do not exceed 45 dBA (interior one-hour Leq) during nighttime hours (10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.).
Mitigation Measure TRA-2: Prepare and Implement a Traffic Management Plan The County will develop or require its contractors to develop a traffic management plan (TMP) that will be implemented throughout project construction. The TMP will:
Contain a plan for communicating with emergency service providers, and an access and circulation plan for use by emergency vehicles when lane closures or detours are in effect. Specify that the contractor will provide advance notice of lane or road closures to local fire and police departments to ensure that emergency routes are designated to maintain response times. Provide specific standards to be followed for traffic control signage and implementation to minimize hazards for vehicles travelling through the project area during construction. Contain a plan for communicating to the public the locations and routes of detours. Require that access to driveways and private roads be maintained at all times.
The provisions of the traffic management plan will be incorporated into the terms and specifications of the contracts for construction of the proposed project and will be implemented during the entire construction period.

Re: Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin Introduction
As identified in the Final Tier I Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement (State Clearinghouse[SCH]#2003092069), prepared by South Placer Regional Transportation Authority and Caltrans, Placer Parkway would be a high-speed, limited access roadway connection between the State Route (SR) 65 corridor and the SR 70/99 corridor. Placer County, as the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) lead agency for the first phase of the project, prepared the Placer Parkway Phase 1 Improvements Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) (SCH#2015052032) and approved the Phase I project in 2015. Placer Parkway Phase I would extend freeway access at SR 65 with the construction a standard L-9 interchange at SR 65 and Whitney Ranch Parkway/Placer Parkway and an access-controlled extension of Placer Parkway to Foothills Boulevard North. Placer Parkway would terminate and become Whitney Ranch Parkway east of the southbound SR 65 exit ramp intersection, in the city of Rocklin.
Several commercial and residential projects in western Rocklin near Whitney Ranch Parkway and University Avenue are proposed to be constructed and open for business and occupation prior to the start of construction by Placer County of the Placer Parkway Phase I project. The City of Rocklin is proposing to authorize construction of the portion of the Placer Parkway Phase I project in its jurisdiction. The ultimate configuration in the city includes widening Whitney Ranch Parkway to six 423
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
lanes from Caltrans access control limits just east of SR 65 to University Avenue. In 2024, the City proposes to solicit construction bids for an interim condition, which would construct a deceleration lane along Whitney Ranch Parkway from east of the northbound SR 65 off-ramp intersection to a new driveway for Whitney Ranch Retail located on Whitney Ranch Parkway, and install traffic signals at the Whitney Ranch Parkway/University Avenue intersection.
This memorandum summarizes a review of the portions of the Placer Parkway Phase I project located in Rocklin, and the significant impacts and mitigation measures contained in the Placer Parkway Phase I IS/MND that are germane to the City of Rocklin’s approval of project construction in its jurisdiction. Permits are not addressed in detail in this memorandum.
For the Placer Parkway Phase I project, the City of Rocklin is a responsible agency under CEQA, as defined by California Public Resources Code (CPRC). “Responsible agency” means a public agency, other than the lead agency, which has responsibility for carrying out or approving a project (13 CPRC §21069. As such, the City must consider the environmental effects of the project, as shown in the Placer Parkway Phase I IS/MND, prior to reaching a decision on the project, and is responsible for mitigating or avoiding the direct or indirect environmental effects of those parts of the project which it decides to carryout, finance, or approve (CEQA Guidelines §15096).
Environmental Impact Review
Table 1, below, lists the CEQA checklist issue areas for which significant impacts were identified for the Placer Parkway Phase 1 project in the IS/MND. The title of the mitigation measures adopted by Placer County to reduce each significant impact to less-than-significant levels are listed in the second column. A review of the project footprint, impact limits, and U.S. Army Corp of Engineers and U.S. Fish and Wildlife permit applications for the portions in the city of Rocklin was done to determine the applicability of the CEQA impact and mitigation measure. Whether the impact and mitigation is germane to the construction of the portion of the project in the jurisdiction of the City of Rocklin (the city limits), including the interim condition described previously, is noted in the third column. Where there are differences in the applicability of measures between the interim condition and full build out of Placer Parkway Phase I, those differences are noted. The full text of the applicable mitigation measures are included in the final section of this memorandum.

Full Text of Applicable Mitigation Measures
Mitigation Measure AQ-1: Reduce Construction Emissions to Below PCAPCD NOX Thresholds The following measures, or others that are necessary to achieve the construction NOX target of 82 lbs/day, will be implemented to ensure construction-related emissions do not exceed PCAPCD’s NOX threshold:
Require the usage of EPA rated Tier 4 interim or higher rated construction equipment. In general, replacing Tier 2 Equipment with Tier 4 interim rated equipment will reduce NOX emissions by 68% (94%, if using Tier 4 final rated equipment) (South Coast Air Quality Management District 2010).
Require the usage of equipment that is retrofitted with Diesel Oxidation Catalysts or Selective Catalytic Reduction technology. In general, equipment that is retrofitted with this technology emits 40% less NOX than conventional equipment.
Work with the PCAPCD to purchase NOX credits to offset remaining NOX construction emissions exceeding PCAPCD thresholds.
Mitigation Measure BIO-1: Install Fencing and/or Flagging to Protect Sensitive Biological Resources
Prior to construction, the County’s contractor will install high-visibility orange construction fencing and/or flagging, as appropriate, along the perimeter of the work area adjacent to Environmentally Sensitive Areas. Where specific buffer distances are required for sensitive biological resources (e.g., wetlands, sensitive species habitats, active bird nests, protected trees), buffer distances will be specified under the corresponding measures below. The County will ensure that the final construction plans show the locations where fencing will be installed. The plans will also define the fencing installation procedure. The County or contractor (at the discretion of the County) will ensure that the fencing is maintained throughout the duration of the construction period. If the fencing is removed, damaged, or otherwise compromised during the construction period, construction activities will cease until the fencing is repaired or replaced. The project’s special provisions package will provide clear language regarding acceptable fencing material and prohibited construction-related activities, vehicle operation, material and equipment storage, and other surface-disturbing activities within ESAs. A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans.
Mitigation Measure BIO-2: Conduct Mandatory Environmental Awareness Training for Construction Personnel
Before any work occurs in the project area, including grading, the County will retain a qualified biologist (familiar with the resources to be protected) to conduct a mandatory contractor/worker environmental awareness training for construction personnel. The awareness training will be provided to all construction personnel (contractors and subcontractors) to brief them on the need to avoid effects on sensitive biological resources (e.g., wetlands, sensitive species, nesting birds, protected trees) adjacent to construction areas and the penalties for not complying with applicable state and federal laws and permit requirements. The biologist will inform all construction personnel 430
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
about the life history and habitat requirements of sensitive species with potential for occurrence onsite, the importance of maintaining habitat, and the terms and conditions of the biological opinion “BO) or other authorizing document. Proof of this instruction will be submitted to the County, and other overseeing agencies (e.g., USFWS), as appropriate.
The environmental training also will cover general restrictions and guidelines that must be followed by all construction personnel to reduce or avoid effects on sensitive biological resources during project construction. The crew foreman will be responsible for ensuring that crew members adhere to these guidelines and restrictions, and that new personnel review the environmental training prior to starting work onsite. General restrictions and guidelines that must be followed by construction personnel are listed below.
Project-related vehicles will observe the posted speed limit on hard-surfaced roads and a 10 mile-per-hour speed limit on unpaved roads or access areas during travel on the project site. Project-related vehicles and construction equipment will restrict offroad travel to the designated construction area.
Vegetation clearing and construction operations will be limited to the minimum necessary in areas of temporary access work areas and staging.
All food-related trash will be disposed of in closed containers and removed from the project site at least once a week during the construction period. Construction personnel will not feed or otherwise attract wildlife to the project site.
No pets or firearms will be allowed on the project site. To prevent possible resource damage from hazardous materials such as motor oil or gasoline, construction personnel will not service vehicles or construction equipment outside designated staging areas.
The training will also include identifying the BMPs written into construction specifications for avoiding and minimizing the introduction and spread of invasive plants, and the rationale behind their implementation during project construction. A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans
Mitigation Measure BIO-3: Retain a Biologist to Conduct Periodic Monitoring during Construction in Sensitive Habitats
The County will retain a qualified biologist to conduct weekly site visits during any ground- disturbing activities that occur within or adjacent to ESAs (e.g., wetlands, sensitive species habitat, active bird nests, protected trees). The purpose of the site visits is to ensure that measures identified in this report are properly implemented to avoid and minimize effects on sensitive biological resources and to ensure the project complies with all applicable permit requirements and agency conditions of approval. The biologist will ensure that fencing around ESAs remains in place during construction and that no construction personnel, equipment, or runoff/sediment from the construction area enters ESAs.

Mitigation Measure BIO-4: Protect Water Quality and Minimize Sedimentation Runoff in Wetlands and Other Waters outside the Project Limits
The County and its construction contractor will comply with all construction site BMPs specified in the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and any other permit conditions to minimize introduction of construction-related contaminants and sedimentation runoff. Broadly, these BMPs will address soil stabilization, sediment control, wind erosion control, vehicle tracking control, non- storm water management, and waste management practices. The BMPs will be based on the best conventional and best available technology.
The proposed project is subject to stormwater quality regulations established under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), described in Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 402.
In California, the NPDES program requires that any construction activity disturbing 1 or more acres comply with the statewide General Permit, as authorized by the State Water Resources Control Board. The General Permit requires elimination or minimization of nonstormwater discharges from construction sites and the development and implementation of a SWPPP for the site. Below are the primary elements of the SWPPP.
Description of site characteristics—including runoff and overland characteristics and soil erosion hazard—and construction procedures.
Guidelines for proper application of erosion and sediment control BMPs. Description of measures to prevent and control toxic materials spills. Description of construction site housekeeping practices.
In addition to these primary elements, the SWPPP also specifies that the extent of soil and vegetative disturbance would be minimized by control fencing or other means and that the extent of soil disturbed at any given time would be minimized. The SWPPP must be retained at the construction site.
The BMPs will be selected to achieve maximum sediment removal and represent the best available technology that is economically achievable and are subject to review and approval by the County.
The County will perform routine inspections of the construction area to verify the BMPs are properly implemented and maintained. The County will notify contractors immediately if there is a noncompliance issue and will require compliance.
The BMPs will include, but are not limited to, the following. All earthwork in and around wetlands or other waters will occur in the dry season. Earthwork will not occur from the first day of the first significant rain (1 inch or greater) until June 1, or until wetlands remain dry for 72 hours and no significant rain is forecast on the day of such ground disturbance.
Equipment used in and around drainages and wetlands will be in good working order and free of dripping or leaking engine fluids. All vehicle maintenance will be performed at least 300 feet from all streams. Any necessary equipment washing will be carried out where the water cannot flow into drainages or wetlands.
432
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
The contractor will be required to develop a hazardous material spill prevention control and countermeasure plan before construction begins. The plan will include strict onsite handling rules to keep construction and maintenance materials from entering wetlands and other waters, including procedures related to refueling, operating, storing and staging construction equipment and preventing and responding to spills. The plan will also identify the parties responsible for monitoring the spill response. During construction, any spills will be cleaned up immediately according to the spill prevention and countermeasure plan. The County will review and approve the contractors’ hazardous material spill prevention control and countermeasure plan before allowing construction to begin.
The following types of materials will not be rinsed or washed into the streets, shoulder areas, or gutters: concrete; solvents and adhesives; thinners; paints; fuels; sawdust; dirt; gasoline; asphalt and concrete saw slurry; heavily chlorinated water.
Any surplus concrete rubble, asphalt, or other rubble from construction will be taken to a local landfill.
An erosion and sediment control plan will be prepared and implemented for the project. It will include the following provisions and protocols. The SWPPP for the project will detail the applications and type of measures and the allowable exposure of unprotected soils. Make discharge from dewatering operations, if needed, and runoff from disturbed areas conform to the water quality requirements of the waste discharge permit issued by the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board.
Apply temporary erosion control measures, such as sandbagged silt fences, throughout construction of the proposed project and remove after the working area is stabilized or as directed by the engineer. Soil exposure will be minimized through use of temporary BMPs, groundcover, and stabilization measures. Exposed dust-producing surfaces will be sprinkled daily, if necessary, until wet. Sprinkling will be controlled to avoid producing runoff. Paved roads will be swept daily following construction activities. Conduct periodic maintenance of erosion and sediment control measures. Plant an appropriate seed mix of native or naturalized species on disturbed areas upon completion of construction.
Cover or apply nontoxic soil stabilizers to inactive construction areas (previously graded areas inactive for 10 days or more) that could contribute sediment to waterways. Enclose and cover exposed stockpiles of dirt or other loose, granular construction materials that could contribute sediment to waterways. Material stockpiles will be located in non- traffic areas only. Side slopes will not be steeper than 2:1. All stockpile areas will be surrounded by a filter fabric fence and interceptor dike. Contain soil and filter runoff from disturbed areas by berms, vegetated filters, silt fencing, straw wattle, plastic sheeting, catch basins, or other means necessary to prevent the escape of sediment from the disturbed area.
Use other temporary erosion control measures (such as silt fences, staked straw bales/wattles, silt/sediment basins and traps, check dams, geofabric, sandbag dikes, and 433
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
temporary re-vegetation or other ground cover) to control erosion from disturbed areas as necessary.
Avoid earth or organic material from being deposited or placed where it may be directly carried into nearby wetlands or other waters.
The County will also obtain a 401 Water Quality Certification from the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board, and a Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement from the CDFW, both of which may contain additional BMPs and water quality measures to ensure the protection of water quality.
Mitigation Measure BIO-5: Avoid and Minimize Potential Indirect Impacts on Vernal Pool Fairy Shrimp and Vernal Pool Tadpole Shrimp Habitat
(applicable to remaining Placer Parkway Phase I buildout, not construction of the Interim Condition)
The following avoidance and minimization measures will be implemented prior to and during construction to protect vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat outside the project footprint. Ground disturbance within 250 feet of suitable vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat (i.e., vernal pools and wetland swales) will be avoided from the first day of the first significant rain (1 inch or greater) until June 1, or until suitable wetlands remain dry for 72 hours and no significant rain is forecast on the day of such ground disturbance. Consistent with Mitigation Measure BIO-1, a qualified biologist will guide the installation of exclusion fencing prior to the start of ground disturbing activities (including staging and grading). The exclusion fencing will be installed along the edge of the construction limits and in a manner that minimizes disturbance of adjacent wetlands. The exclusion fencing will consist of orange construction barrier and erosion control fencing or combination fencing and will be installed by the construction contractor.
No herbicide will be applied within 100 feet of aquatic habitat, except when applied to cut stumps or frilled stems or injected into stems. No broadcast applications will be applied.
Mitigation Measure BIO-6: Compensate for Direct and Indirect Impacts on Vernal Pool Fairy Shrimp and Vernal Pool Tadpole Shrimp Habitat
(applicable to remaining Placer Parkway Phase I buildout, not construction of the Interim Condition)
The County will compensate for the permanent loss of up to 1.40 acres and temporary loss of up to
0.94 acre of suitable habitat (vernal pools and vernal swales) for vernal pool fairy shrimp.
Consistent with the County’s current working draft of the PCCP, direct impacts on vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat will be mitigated at a minimum 2.25:1 ratio (1 acre preserved and 1.25 acre restored for every 1 acre affected). The exact acreage and location of compensatory mitigation will be based on final revisions to the project design and consultation with USFWS. Compensatory mitigation can be accomplished through one or a combination of the following three options. Purchase the appropriate number and type of habitat credits at a USFWS-approved mitigation bank or conservation area.
434
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
Establish a conservation easement on a parcel(s) containing a sufficient amount of existing and restored vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat (based on minimum 2.25:1 ratio) and adaptively mange the mitigation lands consistent with the most current information on vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat requirements.
Mitigate for vernal pool fairy shrimp habitat through an approved habitat conservation plan (i.e., PCCP) if the plan is finalized prior to the start of construction.
Mitigation Measure BIO-7: Conduct Vegetation Removal during the Non-Breeding Season and Conduct Preconstruction Surveys for Swainson’s Hawk
The County will remove vegetation (including trees, shrubs, and grasses) during the non-breeding season for Swainson’s hawk (generally from September 16 to February 28), to the extent feasible.
If it is not feasible to remove all vegetation during the non-breeding season, then the County will retain a qualified wildlife biologist with knowledge of Swainson’s hawk to conduct nesting surveys before the start of construction. Surveys will be conducted during the nesting season (March 1 through September 15) in accordance with the Swainson’s Hawk Technical Advisory Committee’s methodology (May 31, 2000) within the methodology’s Survey Periods I, II, and III (March 1 through April 20) or according to updated methodologies as issued by CDFW. If construction will commence after March 1 but prior to April 5, then a minimum of two surveys will be conducted prior to the start of construction to determine whether Swainson’s hawk are nesting within the survey area. For phased construction, surveys will continue throughout the remainder of the survey period to cover areas not under active construction. If surveys conclude that Swainson’s hawk nests occur, and are occupied, the County will implement the following minimization measures. To prevent nest abandonment, the County will establish a minimum 1,000-foot no-disturbance buffer between the occupied nest and construction activities that occur during the nesting season (March 1 through September 15). The buffer distance may be reduced based on site- specific conditions or the nature of the construction activity (e.g., level of existing disturbance, location of the nest, status of nest and eggs/nestlings, and type and level of construction activity). The reduced buffer distance will be determined by a qualified biologist (with knowledge of the species) in coordination with CDFW.
If the Swainson’s hawk young fledge prior to September 15, project activities can proceed normally after a qualified biologist determines that the young are capable of independent survival (i.e., not being fed by parents).
Nest trees will not be removed, if feasible. If a nest tree (any tree that has an active nest during the year the impact is to occur) must be removed, tree removal will be between September 16 and February 28.
Mitigation Measure BIO-8: Compensate for Permanent Removal of Swainson’s Hawk Foraging Habitat
The County will compensate for the permanent removal of suitable foraging habitat for Swainson’s hawks by providing offsite habitat management lands as described in CDFW’s Staff Report Regarding Mitigation for Impacts to Swainson’s Hawks in the Central Valley of California (California Department of Fish and Game “994). The final acreage of offsite management lands to be provided 435
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
will depend on the distance between the project area and the nearest active nest site. The mitigation ratio varies from 0.5:1 to 1:1(dependent on the location of the closest known nest site) of habitat preserved for each acre lost. In lieu of acquiring offsite mitigation lands, the County may purchase mitigation credits for Swainson’s hawk foraging habitat from a suitable mitigation or conservation bank that sells upland habitat credits with habitat function equal or similar to lands that are permanently affected by the project. To determine the appropriate mitigation ratio, information on the nearest nest will be collected during preconstruction Swainson’s hawk surveys conducted under Mitigation Measure BIO-7. If no active nests are found during this survey, a search of the CNDDB will be conducted, and CDFW will be contacted to determine the nearest active nest (active within the previous 5 years).
In the event that the PCCP is in place prior to project construction, this compensation requirement will be considered met if the applicant pays mitigation fees for valley grassland habitat through the PCCP.
Mitigation Measure BIO-9: Conduct Preconstruction Surveys for Burrowing Owl and Establish No Activity Zones, if Necessary
A qualified biologist will conduct preconstruction take avoidance surveys for burrowing owl no less than 14 days prior to and within 24 hours of initiating ground-disturbing activities. The survey area will encompass the designated work area (including staging areas) and a 500-foot buffer around this area.
To the maximum extent feasible (i.e., where the construction footprint can be modified), construction activities within 500 feet of active burrowing owl burrows will be avoided during the nesting season (February 1 to August 31).
If an active burrow is identified near a proposed work area and work cannot be conducted outside of the nesting season (February 1 to August 31), a no-activity zone will be established by a qualified biologist and in coordination with CDFW. The no-activity zone will be large enough to avoid nest abandonment and will extend a minimum of 250 feet around the burrow.
If burrowing owls are present at the site during the non-breeding season (September 1 through January 31), a qualified biologist will establish a no-activity zone that extends a minimum of 150 feet around the burrow.
If the designated no-activity zone for either breeding or non-breeding burrowing owls cannot be established, a wildlife biologist experienced in burrowing owl behavior will evaluate site-specific conditions and, in coordination with CDFW, recommend a smaller buffer (if possible) that still minimizes the potential to disturb the owls (and is deemed to still allow reproductive success during the breeding season). The site-specific buffer will consider the type and extent of the proposed activity occurring near the occupied burrow, the duration and timing of the activity, the sensitivity and habituation of the owls, and the dissimilarity of the proposed activity to background activities.
If burrowing owls are present within the direct disturbance area and cannot be avoided during non- breeding season (generally September 1 through January 31), passive relocation techniques (e.g., installing one-way doors at burrow entrances) shall be used instead of trapping. Passive relocation may also be used during the breeding season (February 1 through August 30) if a qualified biologist, 436
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
coordinating with CDFW, determines through site surveillance and/or scoping that the burrow is not occupied by burrowing owl adults, young, or eggs. The one-way doors shall be left in place for a minimum of 1 week and monitored daily to insure that the owls have left the burrow. Excavation of the burrow shall be conducted using hand tools and a section of flexible plastic pipe (at least 3 inches in diameter) shall be inserted into the burrow tunnel to maintain an escape route for any animals that may be inside the burrow.
Destruction of unoccupied burrows outside the work area will be avoided and visible markers will be placed near burrows to ensure they are not collapsed.
A qualified biologist will conduct ongoing surveillance of the project parcels for burrowing owls during project activities. If additional owls are observed using burrows within 500 feet of construction, a qualified biologist will determine if the owl(s) would be affected by future construction and if additional exclusion zones are required.
Mitigation Measure BIO-10: Conduct Vegetation Removal during the Non-Breeding Season and Conduct Preconstruction Surveys for Nesting Migratory Birds and Raptors The County will remove vegetation during the non-breeding season for migratory birds and raptors (generally from September 1 to January 31), to the extent feasible.
If it is not feasible to remove vegetation during the non-breeding season, then the County will retain a qualified wildlife biologist with knowledge of the relevant species to conduct nesting surveys before the start of construction. The nesting surveys will be conducted in conjunction with Swainson’s hawk and burrowing owl surveys conducted for Mitigation Measures BIO-6 and BIO-8 and will include a minimum of two separate surveys to look for active migratory bird and raptor nests. Surveys will include a search of all trees and shrubs, wetland, and grassland vegetation that provide suitable nesting habitat in the construction area. In addition, a 500-foot area around the project area will be surveyed for nesting raptors. Surveys should occur during the height of the breeding season (March 1 to June 1) with one survey occurring within 30 days prior to construction and the second survey occurring within 1 week after of the start of construction. If no active nests are detected during these surveys, no additional measures are required.
If an active nest is found in the survey area, a no-disturbance buffer will be established around the site to avoid disturbance or destruction of the nest site until the end of the breeding season (August 31) or until after a qualified wildlife biologist determines that the young have fledged and moved out of the project area (this date varies by species). The extent of these buffers will be determined by the biologist in coordination with USFWS and CDFW and will depend on the level of construction disturbance, line-of-sight between the nest and the disturbance, ambient levels of noise and other disturbances, and other topographical or artificial barriers. Suitable buffer distances may vary between species.
Mitigation Measure CUL-1: Stop Work if Cultural Materials are Encountered During Ground- Disturbing Activities
If previously-unidentified cultural materials are encountered or unearthed during construction, consistent with Caltrans and County policies to avoid cultural resources, work in that area will halt until a qualified archaeologist can evaluate the nature and significance of the find and identify an 437
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
appropriate course of treatment, in consultation with Caltrans and the State Historic Preservation Office, as appropriate. Treatment could include data recovery, analysis, and curation. A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans.
Mitigation Measure CUL-2: Stop Work if Human Remains are Encountered During Ground- Disturbing Activities
In the event that human remains are discovered, the Placer County coroner will be notified immediately. If the coroner determines the remains to be Native American in origin, the coroner will be responsible for notifying the NAHC, which will appoint a “most likely descendent” “MLD) (Public Resources Code “PRC] Section 5097.99). The archaeological consultant, project applicant, Placer County, and MLD will make all reasonable efforts to develop an agreement for the dignified treatment of human remains and associated or unassociated funerary objects (State CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5[d]). The agreement should take into consideration the appropriate excavation, removal, recordation, analysis, custodianship, curation, and final disposition of the human remains and associated or unassociated funerary objects. The MLD will have 24 hours after notification by the NAHC to make their recommendation (PRC Section 5097.98). If the MLD does not agree to the reburial method, the project shall follow PRC Section 5097.98(b), which states, “The landowner or his or her authorized representative shall reinter the human remains and items associated with Native American burials with appropriate dignity on the property in a location not subject to further subsurface disturbance.” A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans.
Mitigation Measure GEO-1: Implement Temporary Construction Site BMPs The County will implement the temporary construction site BMPs identified in the project’s Storm Water Data Report (California Department of Transportation 2“14b). Whenever possible, earth- disturbing construction activities should not be scheduled during anticipated rain events.
Construction site BMPs should be installed prior to the start of construction or as early as feasibly possible during construction. Drainage Shed Areas will be protected in accordance with the Project’s pollution control measures. The construction site BMP strategy for this project will consist of implementing the following measures.
Soil stabilization measures including move-in/move-out (erosion control), temporary hydraulic mulch, temporary cover and temporary fence (type ESA).
Sediment control measures including temporary fiber rolls, temporary silt fence, and temporary drainage inlet protection.
Tracking control including stabilized construction entrances/exits and street sweeping. Non-stormwater management measures including concrete washout bins. General construction site management including training employees and subcontractors.
Training shall address the proper selection, deployment, and repair of construction site BMPs used within project limits.
438
Review of Placer Parkway Phase 1 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for Construction of Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening in City of Rocklin
July 22, 2024
The design of all construction BMPs will comply with the design requirements found in the Caltrans Storm Water Quality Handbooks: Project Planning and Design Guide and Construction Site Best Management Practices Manual.
Mitigation Measure GEO-2: Monitor Excavation and Earthmoving Activities Excavation and earthmoving in native soil and sediment in the project area will be monitored by a qualified professional under the supervision of a California licensed Professional Geologist. Moving of imported fill material does not require monitoring.
If paleontological resources are discovered during construction activities, specific steps to evaluate and salvage fossil specimens, document their scientific value, and store specimens in a recognized repository institution, as appropriate, will be taken. The detailed approach to implementation of this mitigation is provided in Chapter 8 of the PER/PPMP (California Department of Transportation 2“14a).
Mitigation Measure HAZ-2: Prepare and Implement Health and Safety Plan Consistent with the mitigation commitment in the Placer Parkway Corridor Preservation Tier 1 EIS/EIR, a Health and Safety Plan will be prepared by the contractor prior to construction. This plan will describe appropriate procedures to follow in the event that any contaminated soil or groundwater is encountered during construction activities. Any unknown substances should be tested, handled, and disposed of in accordance with appropriate federal, state, and local regulations.
Mitigation Measure NOI-1: Employ Noise-Reducing Construction Practices during Construction During construction, project proponents will employ best practices to reduce construction noise at noise-sensitive land uses. Implementation of this measure will ensure that construction noise levels, as applicable, do not exceed 45 dBA (interior one-hour Leq) during nighttime hours (10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.) for construction activities 350-feet or further from residential land uses.
Measures used to limit construction noise include the following:
Locating stationary equipment (e.g., generators, compressors, rock crushers, cement mixers, idling trucks) as far as possible from noise-sensitive land uses. Prohibiting gasoline or diesel engines from having unmuffled exhaust. Requiring that all construction equipment powered by gasoline or diesel engines have sound- control devices that are at least as effective as those originally provided by the manufacturer and that all equipment be operated and maintained to minimize noise generation. Preventing excessive noise by shutting down idle vehicles or equipment. Using noise-reducing enclosures around noise-generating equipment. Selecting haul routes that affect the fewest number of people.
Constructing barriers to block sound transmission to noise-sensitive land uses. The barriers shall be designed to obstruct the line of sight between the noise-sensitive land use and on-site construction equipment.
439

July 22, 2024
Mitigation Measure NOI-2. Limit Construction within 350-feet of Residential Uses In addition to the measures included in NOI-1, construction activities within 350 feet of residential uses will be limited to the hours between 7:00 am and 10:00 pm in order to ensure that construction noise levels do not exceed 45 dBA (interior one-hour Leq) during nighttime hours (10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.).
Mitigation Measure TRA-2: Prepare and Implement a Traffic Management Plan The County will develop or require its contractors to develop a traffic management plan (TMP) that will be implemented throughout project construction. The TMP will:
Contain a plan for communicating with emergency service providers, and an access and circulation plan for use by emergency vehicles when lane closures or detours are in effect. Specify that the contractor will provide advance notice of lane or road closures to local fire and police departments to ensure that emergency routes are designated to maintain response times. Provide specific standards to be followed for traffic control signage and implementation to minimize hazards for vehicles travelling through the project area during construction. Contain a plan for communicating to the public the locations and routes of detours. Require that access to driveways and private roads be maintained at all times.
The provisions of the traffic management plan will be incorporated into the terms and specifications of the contracts for construction of the proposed project and will be implemented during the entire construction period.
440
MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM
WHITNEY RANCH PARKWAY WIDENING IN THE CITY OF ROCKLIN
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA, Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq., as amended by Chapter 1232) requires all lead agencies before approving a proposed project to adopt a reporting and monitoring program for adopted or required changes to mitigate or avoid significant environmental effects. The reporting or monitoring program shall be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation as required by AB 3180 (Cortese) effective on January 1, 1989, and Public Resources Code Section 21081.6. This law requires the lead agency responsible for the certification of an environmental impact report or adoption of a mitigated negative declaration to prepare and approve a program to both monitor all mitigation measures and prepare and approve a report on the progress of the implementation of those measures.
The responsibility for monitoring assignments is based upon the expertise or authority of the person(s) assigned to monitor the specific activity. The City of Rocklin Community Development Director or his designee shall monitor compliance and timely monitoring and reporting of all aspects of the mitigation monitoring program.
The Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) identifies the mitigation measures associated with the Whitney Ranch Parkway Widening Project (Project) and identifies the monitoring activities required to ensure their implementation. Implementation responsibility is when the project through the development stages is checked to ensure that the measures are included prior to the actual construction of the project.
The following pages present the MMRP with the mitigation measures, implementation, and monitoring responsibilities. After the mitigation measures is a general Mitigation Monitoring Report Form, which will be used as the principal reporting form for this monitoring program. Each mitigation measure will be listed on the form and provided to the responsible department. These mitigation measures are as follows:
441
AIR QUALITY:
Mitigation Measure AQ-1: Reduce Construction Emissions to Below PCAPCD NOX Thresholds The following measures, or others that are necessary to achieve the construction NOX target of 82 lbs/day, will be implemented to ensure construction-related emissions do not exceed PCAPCD’s NOX threshold:
Require the usage of EPA rated Tier 4 interim or higher rated construction equipment. In general, replacing Tier 2 Equipment with Tier 4 interim rated equipment will reduce NOX emissions by 68% (94%, if using Tier 4 final rated equipment) (South Coast Air Quality Management District 2010). Require the usage of equipment that is retrofitted with Diesel Oxidation Catalysts or Selective Catalytic Reduction technology. In general, equipment that is retrofitted with this technology emits 40% less NOX than conventional equipment. Work with the PCAPCD to purchase NOX credits to offset remaining NOX construction emissions exceeding PCAPCD thresholds.
Implementation:
Prior to the start of grading or construction activities, the City shall include the above mitigation measures in its plans and specifications for the project. During construction, the contractor(s) shall implement the above mitigation measure.

BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES:
Mitigation Measure BIO-1: Install Fencing and/or Flagging to Protect Sensitive Biological Resources
Prior to construction, the City’s contractor will install high-visibility orange construction fencing and/or flagging, as appropriate, along the perimeter of the work area adjacent to Environmentally Sensitive Areas. Where specific buffer distances are required for sensitive biological resources (e.g., wetlands, sensitive species habitats, active bird nests, protected trees), buffer distances will be specified under the corresponding measures below. The City will ensure that the final construction plans show the locations where fencing will be installed. The City or contractor (at the discretion of the City) will ensure that the fencing is maintained throughout the duration of the construction period. If the fencing is removed, damaged, or otherwise compromised during the construction period, construction activities will cease until the fencing 442
is repaired or replaced. The Project’s Special Provisions package will provide clear language regarding acceptable fencing material and prohibited construction-related activities, vehicle operation, material and equipment storage, and other surface-disturbing activities within ESAs.
A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans.

BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES:
Mitigation Measure BIO-2: Conduct Mandatory Environmental Awareness Training for Construction Personnel
Before any work occurs in the Project area, including grading, the City will retain a qualified biologist (familiar with the resources to be protected) to conduct a mandatory contractor/worker environmental awareness training for construction personnel. The awareness training will be provided to all construction personnel (contractors and subcontractors) to brief them on the need to avoid effects on sensitive biological resources (e.g., wetlands, sensitive species, nesting birds, protected trees) adjacent to construction areas and the penalties for not complying with applicable state and federal laws and permit requirements. The biologist will inform all construction personnel about the life history and habitat requirements of sensitive species with potential for occurrence onsite, the importance of maintaining habitat, and the terms and conditions of the biological opinion (BO) or other authorizing document. Proof of this instruction will be submitted to the City, and other overseeing agencies (e.g., USFWS), as appropriate.
The environmental training also will cover general restrictions and guidelines that must be followed by all construction personnel to reduce or avoid effects on sensitive biological resources during project construction. The crew foreman will be responsible for ensuring that crew members adhere to these guidelines and restrictions, and that new personnel review the environmental training prior to starting work onsite. General restrictions and guidelines that must be followed by construction personnel are listed below. Project-related vehicles will observe the posted speed limit on hard-surfaced roads and a 10 mile-per-hour speed limit on unpaved roads or access areas during travel on the project site.
443
Project-related vehicles and construction equipment will restrict off-road travel to the designated construction area.
Vegetation clearing and construction operations will be limited to the minimum necessary in areas of temporary access work areas and staging.
All food-related trash will be disposed of in closed containers and removed from the project site at least once a week during the construction period. Construction personnel will not feed or otherwise attract wildlife to the project site. No pets or firearms will be allowed on the project site. To prevent possible resource damage from hazardous materials such as motor oil or gasoline, construction personnel will not service vehicles or construction equipment outside designated staging areas.
The training will also include identifying the Best Management Practices (BMPs) written into construction specifications for avoiding and minimizing the introduction and spread of invasive plants, and the rationale behind their implementation during project construction. A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans.
Implementation:
Prior to the start of grading or construction activities, the City shall include the above mitigation measures in its plans and specifications for the project. Proof of worker environmental awareness training shall be provided to the City.

Mitigation Measure BIO-3: Retain a Biologist to Conduct Periodic Monitoring during Construction in Sensitive Habitats
The City will retain a qualified biologist to conduct weekly site visits during any ground-disturbing activities that occur within or adjacent to Environmentally Sensitive Areas (ESAs) (e.g., wetlands, sensitive species habitat, active bird nests, protected trees). The purpose of the site visits is to ensure that measures identified in this report are properly implemented to avoid and minimize effects on sensitive biological resources and to ensure the project complies with all applicable permit requirements and agency conditions of approval. The biologist will ensure that fencing around ESAs remains in place during construction and that no construction personnel, equipment, or runoff/sediment from the construction area enters ESAs. 444

Mitigation Measure BIO-4: Protect Water Quality and Minimize Sedimentation Runoff in Wetlands and Other Waters outside the Project Limits
The City and its construction contractor will comply with all construction site BMPs specified in the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and any other permit conditions to minimize introduction of construction-related contaminants and sedimentation runoff. Broadly, these BMPs will address soil stabilization, sediment control, wind erosion control, vehicle tracking control, non-storm water management, and waste management practices. The BMPs will be based on the best conventional and best available technology.
The proposed Project is subject to stormwater quality regulations established under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), described in Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 402. In California, the NPDES program requires that any construction activity disturbing 1 or more acres comply with the statewide General Permit, as authorized by the State Water Resources Control Board. The General Permit requires elimination or minimization of nonstormwater discharges from construction sites and the development and implementation of a SWPPP for the site. Below are the primary elements of the SWPPP.
Description of site characteristics—including runoff and overland characteristics and soil erosion hazard—and construction procedures.
Guidelines for proper application of erosion and sediment control BMPs. Description of measures to prevent and control toxic materials spills. Description of construction site housekeeping practices.
In addition to these primary elements, the SWPPP also specifies that the extent of soil and vegetative disturbance would be minimized by control fencing or other means and that the extent of soil disturbed at any given time would be minimized. The SWPPP must be retained at the construction site.
445
The BMPs will be selected to achieve maximum sediment removal and represent the best available technology that is economically achievable and are subject to review and approval by the City. The City will perform routine inspections of the construction area to verify the BMPs are properly implemented and maintained. The City will notify contractors immediately if there is a noncompliance issue and will require compliance.
The BMPs will include, but are not limited to, the following. All earthwork in and around wetlands or other waters will occur in the dry season.
Earthwork will not occur from the first day of the first significant rain (1 inch or greater) until June 1, or until wetlands remain dry for 72 hours and no significant rain is forecast on the day of such ground disturbance.
Equipment used in and around drainages and wetlands will be in good working order and free of dripping or leaking engine fluids. All vehicle maintenance will be performed at least 300 feet from all streams. Any necessary equipment washing will be carried out where the water cannot flow into drainages or wetlands.
The contractor will be required to develop a hazardous material spill prevention control and countermeasure plan before construction begins. The plan will include strict onsite handling rules to keep construction and maintenance materials from entering wetlands and other waters, including procedures related to refueling, operating, storing and staging construction equipment and preventing and responding to spills. The plan will also identify the parties responsible for monitoring the spill response. During construction, any spills will be cleaned up immediately according to the spill prevention and countermeasure plan. The City will review and approve the contractors’ hazardous material spill prevention control and countermeasure plan before allowing construction to begin.
The following types of materials will not be rinsed or washed into the streets, shoulder areas, or gutters: concrete; solvents and adhesives; thinners; paints; fuels; sawdust; dirt; gasoline; asphalt and concrete saw slurry; heavily chlorinated water. Any surplus concrete rubble, asphalt, or other rubble from construction will be taken to a local landfill.
An erosion and sediment control plan will be prepared and implemented for the project.
It will include the following provisions and protocols. The SWPPP for the project will detail the applications and type of measures and the allowable exposure of unprotected soils. Make discharge from dewatering operations, if needed, and runoff from disturbed areas conform to the water quality requirements of the waste discharge permit issued by the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board. 446
Apply temporary erosion control measures, such as sandbagged silt fences, throughout construction of the proposed project and remove after the working area is stabilized or as directed by the engineer. Soil exposure will be minimized through use of temporary BMPs, groundcover, and stabilization measures. Exposed dust- producing surfaces will be sprinkled daily, if necessary, until wet. Sprinkling will be controlled to avoid producing runoff. Paved roads will be swept daily following construction activities.
Conduct periodic maintenance of erosion and sediment control measures. Plant an appropriate seed mix of native or naturalized species on disturbed areas upon completion of construction.
Cover or apply nontoxic soil stabilizers to inactive construction areas (previously graded areas inactive for 10 days or more) that could contribute sediment to waterways.
Enclose and cover exposed stockpiles of dirt or other loose, granular construction materials that could contribute sediment to waterways. Material stockpiles will be located in non-traffic areas only. Side slopes will not be steeper than 2:1. All stockpile areas will be surrounded by a filter fabric fence and interceptor dike. Contain soil and filter runoff from disturbed areas by berms, vegetated filters, silt fencing, straw wattle, plastic sheeting, catch basins, or other means necessary to prevent the escape of sediment from the disturbed area. Use other temporary erosion control measures (such as silt fences, staked straw bales/wattles, silt/sediment basins and traps, check dams, geofabric, sandbag dikes, and temporary re-vegetation or other ground cover) to control erosion from disturbed areas as necessary.
Avoid earth or organic material from being deposited or placed where it may be directly carried into nearby wetlands or other waters.

Mitigation Measure BIO-7: Conduct Vegetation Removal during the Non-Breeding Season and Conduct Preconstruction Surveys for Swainson’s Hawk
The City will remove vegetation (including trees, shrubs, and grasses) during the non-breeding season for Swainson’s hawk (generally from September 16 to February 28), to the extent feasible.
If it is not feasible to remove all vegetation during the non-breeding season, then the City will retain a qualified wildlife biologist with knowledge of Swainson’s hawk to conduct nesting surveys before the start of construction. Surveys will be conducted during the nesting season (March 1 through September 15) in accordance with the Swainson’s Hawk Technical Advisory Committee’s methodology (May 31, 2000) within the methodology’s Survey Periods I, II, and III (March 1 through April 20) or according to updated methodologies as issued by CDFW. If construction will commence after March 1 but prior to April 5, then a minimum of two surveys will be conducted prior to the start of construction to determine whether Swainson’s hawk are nesting within the survey area. For phased construction, surveys will continue throughout the remainder of the survey period to cover areas not under active construction. If surveys conclude that Swainson’s hawk nests occur, and are occupied, the City will implement the following minimization measures.
To prevent nest abandonment, the City will establish a minimum 1,000-foot no- disturbance buffer between the occupied nest and construction activities that occur during the nesting season (March 1 through September 15). The buffer distance may be reduced based on site-specific conditions or the nature of the construction activity (e.g., level of existing disturbance, location of the nest, status of nest and eggs/nestlings, and type and level of construction activity). The reduced buffer distance will be determined by a qualified biologist (with knowledge of the species) in coordination with CDFW. If the Swainson’s hawk young fledge prior to September 15, project activities can proceed normally after a qualified biologist determines that the young are capable of independent survival (i.e., not being fed by parents).
Nest trees will not be removed, if feasible. If a nest tree (any tree that has an active nest during the year the impact is to occur) must be removed, tree removal will be between September 16 and February 28.

Mitigation Measure BIO-8: Compensate for Permanent Removal of Swainson’s Hawk Foraging Habitat
The City will compensate for the permanent removal of suitable foraging habitat for Swainson’s hawks by providing offsite habitat management lands as described in CDFW’s Staff Report Regarding Mitigation for Impacts to Swainson’s Hawks in the Central Valley of California (California Department of Fish and Game 1994). The final acreage of offsite management lands to be provided will depend on the distance between the project area and the nearest active nest site. The mitigation ratio varies from 0.5:1 to 1:1(dependent on the location of the closest known nest site) of habitat preserved for each acre lost. In lieu of acquiring offsite mitigation lands, the City may purchase mitigation credits for Swainson’s hawk foraging habitat from a suitable mitigation or conservation bank that sells upland habitat credits with habitat function equal or similar to lands that are permanently affected by the project. To determine the appropriate mitigation ratio, information on the nearest nest will be collected during preconstruction Swainson’s hawk surveys conducted under Mitigation Measure BIO-7. If no active nests are found during this survey, a search of the CNDDB will be conducted, and CDFW will be contacted to determine the nearest active nest (active within the previous 5 years).

Mitigation Measure BIO-9: Conduct Preconstruction Surveys for Burrowing Owl and Establish No Activity Zones, if Necessary
A qualified biologist will conduct preconstruction take avoidance surveys for burrowing owl no less than 14 days prior to and within 24 hours of initiating ground-disturbing activities. The survey area will encompass the designated work area (including staging areas) and a 500-foot buffer around this area.
449
To the maximum extent feasible (i.e., where the construction footprint can be modified), construction activities within 500 feet of active burrowing owl burrows will be avoided during the nesting season (February 1 to August 31).
If an active burrow is identified near a proposed work area and work cannot be conducted outside of the nesting season (February 1 to August 31), a no-activity zone will be established by a qualified biologist and in coordination with CDFW. The no-activity zone will be large enough to avoid nest abandonment and will extend a minimum of 250 feet around the burrow.
If burrowing owls are present at the site during the non-breeding season (September 1 through January 31), a qualified biologist will establish a no-activity zone that extends a minimum of 150 feet around the burrow.
If the designated no-activity zone for either breeding or non-breeding burrowing owls cannot be established, a wildlife biologist experienced in burrowing owl behavior will evaluate site-specific conditions and, in coordination with CDFW, recommend a smaller buffer (if possible) that still minimizes the potential to disturb the owls (and is deemed to still allow reproductive success during the breeding season). The site-specific buffer will consider the type and extent of the proposed activity occurring near the occupied burrow, the duration and timing of the activity, the sensitivity and habituation of the owls, and the dissimilarity of the proposed activity to background activities.
If burrowing owls are present within the direct disturbance area and cannot be avoided during non-breeding season (generally September 1 through January 31), passive relocation techniques (e.g., installing one-way doors at burrow entrances) shall be used instead of trapping. Passive relocation may also be used during the breeding season (February 1 through August 30) if a qualified biologist, coordinating with CDFW, determines through site surveillance and/or scoping that the burrow is not occupied by burrowing owl adults, young, or eggs. The one-way doors shall be left in place for a minimum of 1 week and monitored daily to insure that the owls have left the burrow. Excavation of the burrow shall be conducted using hand tools and a section of flexible plastic pipe (at least 3 inches in diameter) shall be inserted into the burrow tunnel to maintain an escape route for any animals that may be inside the burrow.
Destruction of unoccupied burrows outside the work area will be avoided and visible markers will be placed near burrows to ensure they are not collapsed.
A qualified biologist will conduct ongoing surveillance of the project parcels for burrowing owls during project activities. If additional owls are observed using burrows within 500 feet of construction, a qualified biologist will determine if the owl(s) would be affected by future construction and if additional exclusion zones are required. 450

Mitigation Measure BIO-10: Conduct Vegetation Removal during the Non-Breeding Season and Conduct Preconstruction Surveys for Nesting Migratory Birds and Raptors The City will remove vegetation during the non-breeding season for migratory birds and raptors (generally from September 1 to January 31), to the extent feasible.
If it is not feasible to remove vegetation during the non-breeding season, then the City will retain a qualified wildlife biologist with knowledge of the relevant species to conduct nesting surveys before the start of construction. The nesting surveys will be conducted in conjunction with Swainson’s hawk and burrowing owl surveys conducted for Mitigation Measures BIO-6 and BIO- 8 and will include a minimum of two separate surveys to look for active migratory bird and raptor nests. Surveys will include a search of all trees and shrubs, wetland, and grassland vegetation that provide suitable nesting habitat in the construction area. In addition, a 500-foot area around the project area will be surveyed for nesting raptors. Surveys should occur during the height of the breeding season (March 1 to June 1) with one survey occurring within 30 days prior to construction and the second survey occurring within 1 week after of the start of construction. If no active nests are detected during these surveys, no additional measures are required.
If an active nest is found in the survey area, a no-disturbance buffer will be established around the site to avoid disturbance or destruction of the nest site until the end of the breeding season (August 31) or until after a qualified wildlife biologist determines that the young have fledged and moved out of the project area (this date varies by species). The extent of these buffers will be determined by the biologist in coordination with USFWS and CDFW and will depend on the level of construction disturbance, line-of-sight between the nest and the disturbance, ambient levels of noise and other disturbances, and other topographical or artificial barriers. Suitable buffer distances may vary between species.

Mitigation Measure CUL-2: Stop Work if Human Remains are Encountered During Ground- Disturbing Activities
In the event that human remains are discovered, the Placer County Coroner will be notified immediately. If the coroner determines the remains to be Native American in origin, the coroner will be responsible for notifying the NAHC, which will appoint a “most likely descendent” “MLD) (Public Resources Code “PRC] Section 5097.99). The archaeological consultant, project applicant, City of Rocklin, and MLD will make all reasonable efforts to develop an agreement for the dignified treatment of human remains and associated or unassociated funerary objects (State CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5[d]). The agreement should take into consideration the appropriate excavation, removal, recordation, analysis, custodianship, curation, and final 452
disposition of the human remains and associated or unassociated funerary objects. The MLD will have 24 hours after notification by the NAHC to make their recommendation (PRC Section 5097.98). If the MLD does not agree to the reburial method, the project shall follow PRC Section 5097.98(b), which states, “The landowner or his or her authorized representative shall reinter the human remains and items associated with Native American burials with appropriate dignity on the property in a location not subject to further subsurface disturbance.” A note specifying this information will be included on the project Improvement Plans.

Mitigation Measure NOI-1: Employ Noise-Reducing Construction Practices during Construction During construction, project proponents will employ best practices to reduce construction noise at noise-sensitive land uses. Implementation of this measure will ensure that construction noise levels, as applicable, do not exceed 45 dBA (interior one-hour Leq) during nighttime hours (10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.) for construction activities 350-feet or further from residential land uses.
Measures used to limit construction noise include the following:
Locating stationary equipment (e.g., generators, compressors, rock crushers, cement mixers, idling trucks) as far as possible from noise-sensitive land uses. Prohibiting gasoline or diesel engines from having unmuffled exhaust. Requiring that all construction equipment powered by gasoline or diesel engines have sound-control devices that are at least as effective as those originally provided by the manufacturer and that all equipment be operated and maintained to minimize noise generation.
Preventing excessive noise by shutting down idle vehicles or equipment. Using noise-reducing enclosures around noise-generating equipment. Selecting haul routes that affect the fewest number of people. 455
Constructing barriers to block sound transmission to noise-sensitive land uses. The barriers shall be designed to obstruct the line of sight between the noise-sensitive land use and on-site construction equipment.

Sierra College Boulevard Widening Project – Property Acquisition Date:
August 13, 2024
Submitted By:
David Mohlenbrok, Director of Community Development
Department:
Community Development
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Approving an Agreement and Related Budget Amendments for the Acquisition of Real Property, Escrow Instructions, and Certificate of Acceptance in Connection with the Sierra College Boulevard Widening Project and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Agreement, Escrow Instructions, Certificate of Acceptance, and Other Required Real Estate Documents.
Background:
On May 14, 2024, the City Council awarded a construction contract to Central Valley Engineering and Asphalt, Inc. (CVEA) to construct four separate projects packaged together and known as the Various Roadway and Pedestrian Improvements Project. One of these four projects is the Sierra College Boulevard Widening Project (No. 50164). The CVEA construction contract will widen southbound Sierra College Boulevard for a future three lane configuration and install a six-foot-wide sidewalk contiguous with the frontage of Lifehouse Church between Schriber Way and Dominguez Road.
To ensure the sidewalk is located within the City right of way, it is necessary for the City to acquire 5,228 square feet of real property from Lifehouse Church. Following successful negotiations, the City and property owner agreed to a sale price of $48,900 plus closing costs, for a total amount of $50,302.72. Staff recommends the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute all real estate transaction documents for the proposed Lifehouse Church real property acquisition.
Environmental Analysis:
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) normally applies to activities that will result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. Acquisition of this real property meets the above criteria and is subject to CEQA. However, as was determined when the City Council awarded a construction contract to CVEA to construct four separate projects packaged together and known as the Various Roadway and Pedestrian Improvements Project on May 14, 2024, no additional environmental review is required.
Item Number 11
459
Per CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 (b), the project will not result in environmental effects: 1) that are peculiar to the project or the parcel on which the project would be located; 2) that were not analyzed as significant effects in a prior EIR on the general plan, with which the project is consistent; 3) that are potentially significant off-site impacts and cumulative impacts which were not discussed in the prior EIR prepared for the City of Rocklin 2012 General Plan Update, and 4) that are previously identified significant effects which, as a result of substantial new information which was not known at the time the EIR was certified, are determined to have a more severe impact than discussed in the prior EIR. For these reasons, the Sierra College Boulevard Widening (Schriber Way to Dominguez Road) project can rely upon the previously prepared 2012 City of Rocklin General Plan Update EIR, and no further environmental review is required.
Fiscal Impact:
The total property acquisition cost, including closing costs, is $50,302.72. External funding set aside for this purpose will offset $50,000 of this amount. Staff recommends necessary budgetary and accounting adjustments needed to carry out the acquisition in the Reimbursable Fund (Fund 275) and the General Fund (Fund 100) to support the acquisition.

California Highway Patrol Grant
Date:
August 13, 2024
Submitted By:
Chad Morris, Captain
Rustin Banks, Chief
Department:
Police
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Ratifying the Grant Application Submitted to the Department of California Highway Patrol and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Grant Agreement.
Background:
Like all communities, the City of Rocklin is impacted by driving under the influence (DUI) collisions and arrests, with arrests increasing by nearly 10% year-over-year in past three years. This data reveals that more education is needed to discourage drivers from engaging in the dangers of DUI. The City of Rocklin Police Department (RPD) has been awarded a $120,772.23 grant for education and enforcement of driving under the influence from the Department of California Highway Patrol (CHP). The grant award notice and agreement is included as Attachment 2. The primary focus is to preserve human life by preventing DUI.
RPD will provide education programs and conduct periodic enforcement operations across the community as it relates to the dangers of impaired driving. The goal is to educate the public, focusing on adolescents, on the dangers of driving under the influence, or being a passenger in a vehicle with a driver who is under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol.
This year’s grant award will be used to:
(1) purchase education/outreach materials, such as wrist bands, keychains, and flashlights, to be given to members of the community as reminders to dissuade drivers from DUI or passengers from getting into a vehicle with an impaired driver; (2) purchase one surveillance camera trailer for DUI checkpoints and education/outreach events;
(3) training for one Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) instructor course; and (4) personnel costs for officers to present at education/outreach and/or community events.
Police Officers trained as Drug Recognition Experts (DREs) will continue to utilize the four DUI education pedal carts and goggles purchased last year to simulate the effects of various levels of intoxication of alcohol and drugs on the human body. This education is best for middle and Item Number 12
498
high school aged students to deter future abuse of drugs, alcohol and DUI activity. The grant will also fund efforts to enforce violations of DUI laws by conducting DUI checkpoints and joint agency DUI saturation patrols.

Schedule A
Rocklin Police Department
All grant awards, including any adjustments to requested funding, were made by the Cannabis Grants Unit based on the merits of the Grant Application, scale of operation, and in accordance with the Request for Application (RFA) requirements and associated regulations. As a result, not all Project activities and items detailed in Schedule A are applicable. Refer to Schedule B - Detailed Budget Estimate for approved Budget line items and Project activities. Project activities and items that are not clearly identified/specified in the Grant Agreement must be submitted to and approved by CGU prior to purchase.
Project Description
The Rocklin Police Department is dedicated to the continuation of the foundational project established last year, which aims to educate the public about the dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, as well as being in a vehicle with an impaired driver. Our primary focus remains on education as a means of prevention, with the ultimate goal of saving lives and safeguarding property. Our initial target audience consists of middle school and high school students who are becoming increasingly aware of and exposed to alcohol and drugs. This year, we are expanding our program to include the local college campus, Sierra College, which has an enrollment of nearly 16,000 students.
In addition to our educational efforts in schools, the Department actively participates in various community events where we engage with individuals of all ages. Our engagement includes providing presentati ons, simulations, resource materials, and referrals to necessary resources.
The educational content will be delivered through interactive live presentations, hands -on simulations utilizing pedal carts and goggles, as well as through the distribution of printed materials and educational materials (such as bracelets, stickers, magnets, keychains, flashlights, etc.) carrying a "Don't Drink and Drive" slogan as a friendly reminder.
Equipment utilized for our educational initiatives includes the DUI Education and Enforcement Trailer for the transport of safety equipment, materials, educational materials, pedal carts, goggles, and personnel. We also utilize four pedal carts with Fatal Vision impaired goggles, which provide a simulated driving DUI experience, as well as use the Fatal Vision impaired goggles independently for simulating impaired vision due to substance use.
As part of our comprehensive approach to emphasize the dangers of driving under the influence (DUI) or driving under the influence of drugs (DUID), our project includes enforcement measures such as checkpoints.
To facilitate these checkpoints, we utilize the Mobile Pro Systems Surveillance Trailer. This trailer is equipped with safety lights and security cameras, ensuring the safety of both officers and the community during checkpoint operations. The use of the Mobile Pro Systems Surveillance Trailer will also be pivotal in providing evidentiary video of impaired driving activity at DUI checkpoints that will be vital in the prosecution of impaired drivers.
In addition to the trailer, we employ the Pendar X10 handheld chemical detector. This advanced device enables officers to safely and accurately detect and identify substances, including narcotics, while ensuring the protection of both the officers and the community. The device allows for identification of controlled substances without the need to be in close contact with the unidentified substance. With the prevalence of poly-drug combinations encountered in impaired driving investigations, to include lethal substances like Fentanyl, this technology is of paramount importance to the safety of officers conducting DUI investigations.
Another element of our enforcement efforts involves saturation patrols. During these patrols, we continue to use the Pendar X10 handheld chemical detector. This equipment plays a vital role in the safe and reliable detection of substances, while maintaining the well-being of the officer(s) and the community.
Law Enforcement Training includes one officer attending Standardized Field Sobriety Testing Instructor Course.
Problem Statement & Proposed Solution
Problem Statement:
Alcohol-impaired driving and drug-impaired driving pose significant threats to public safety and well-being in the local community of Rocklin, California. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) 509
Schedule A
reported that in 2021, there were 13,384 fatalities in crashes involving alcohol-impaired drivers nationwide. In California alone, there were 1,370 fatalities in alcohol-involved crashes, representing a 16% increase from the previous year and accounting for nearly a third of all traffic deaths in the state (California Office of Traffic Safety).
The City of Rocklin recognizes impaired driving as a major public health and safety problem, and it is crucial to address this issue promptly and effectively.
Proposed Solution:
The Rocklin Police Department has implemented a comprehensive DUI Education and Enforcement plan to tackle the problem of impaired driving. The plan involves multiple strategies to educate and deter individuals from driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
1. Educational Outreach: The police department aims to expand the number of educational outreach presentations conducted at local schools and community events. These presentations will raise awareness about the dangers and consequences of impaired driving, providing essential information to prevent individuals from making the choice to drive while impaired.
2. DUI Checkpoints: The Rocklin Police Department will conduct additional DUI checkpoints when warranted. These checkpoints serve as a visible deterrent and allow officers to identify and apprehend impaired drivers. The data from the latest DUI checkpoint held in December 2023 showed that four drivers were arrested for DUI, indicating the presence of impaired driving within the community.
3. Saturation Patrols: To further enforce DUI laws, the police department plans to increase saturation patrols. This involves deploying additional officers specifically tasked with targeting and apprehending impaired drivers. These patrols contribute to the overall deterrence and enforcement efforts, minimizing the risk of impaired driving incidents.
The proposed solution focuses on not only educating the public but also enhancing enforcement measures to deter impaired driving and protect the community.
Recent Statistical Data:
In the most recent DUI checkpoint conducted by the Rocklin Police Department in December 2023, the following statistics were observed:
• Four drivers were arrested for DUI, signaling the ongoing presence of impaired drivers within the community.
• Three drivers were cited for operating a vehicle without a license or with a suspended/revoked license, demonstrating the need for comprehensive enforcement measures. • A total of 1,078 vehicles were contacted during the checkpoint, highlighting the effectiveness of the checkpoint as a means to engage with the community and enforce DUI laws.
These statistics showcase the reality of impaired driving in the local community and emphasize the urgency of continued efforts to educate, prevent, and enforce against this dangerous behavior.
The following are DUI arrest statistics for the last five years:
2019:
DUI Collision arrests: 33
DUI arrests (no collision): 59
Total DUI arrests: 92

2023: 10
2024: 1
Total underage DUI arrests for the past five years (2019-2023): 38
Reinforcing the education of our officers is a crucial element in effectively achieving the goals of DUI Education and Enforcement. Having additional officers certified in Standard Field Sobriety Tests (SFST), Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement (ARIDE), and Drug Recognition Evaluation (DRE) significantly strengthens our efforts in both preventing and enforcing DUI/DUID offenses.
Performance Measures/Scope of Work
Project Activity
The Rocklin Police Department's DUI Enforcement and Education Project for FY24- 25 aims to implement several project activities with defined goals and objectives.
The project will include a total of 6 DUI/DUID Saturation Patrols conducted quarterly, with four patrols in each quarter. The goal of these patrols is to reduce DUI/DUID related deaths by 10%, leading to improved roadway safety in the community.
Additionally, a total of two DUI Checkpoints will be conducted one in each quarter, Quarter 2 and Quarter 4.
The objective of these checkpoints is to reduce DUI/DUID related incidents by 15%, thus decreasing the number of impaired drivers in the community.
Furthermore, four educational presentations will be conducted at local schools, with a minimum of one presentation in each quarter. The goal is to reach at least 100 students per quarter to increase awareness and educate them on the dangers of driving under the influence. These presentations will focus on highlighting the ramifications of impaired driving including identifying an impaired driver. Educational materials and tools used as reminders, like bracelets, stickers, magnets, etc., will be provided to the students to promote making good decisions for themselves, their family, and friends to never drive impaired. These educational materials will be constant reminders to new and experienced drivers. 511
Schedule A
Overall, the goals and objectives of these activities and events align with the aim of enhancing community safety, reducing DUI/DUID incidents, and increasing awareness about the dangers and consequences of impaired driving.

Quarters 2-4: Deploy at DUI checkpoints, education events, and DUI Saturation Patrols
The Pendar X10 Handheld is a widely recognized tool used by law enforcement agencies worldwide. Its effectiveness in identifying various substances, including cannabis, makes it an essential asset in combating drug-impaired driving and ensuring road safety.
In addition to the equipment purchases, various token promotional items (direct costs) will be acquired (Quarter 1) and distributed at education events/community events. These items targeted towards students and community members will help reinforce the message of not driving impaired or riding with an impaired driver, further supporting the project's objectives. The disbursement of these items will occur throughout Quarters 1-4.
Activity Goals/Objectives
The Rocklin DUI Enforcement and Education FY24-25 Project includes the following goals and objectives for various activities:
Educational Outreach:
• Quarter 1: Conduct 1 educational outreach initiatives • Quarter 2: Conduct 1 educational outreach initiatives • Quarter 3: Conduct 1 educational outreach initiatives • Quarter 4: Conduct 1 educational outreach initiatives
The goal of these educational outreach activities is to increase awareness and provide education on the dangers of driving under the influence. Through these initiatives, the project aims to reach and educate a wide audience on the importance of responsible and safe driving practices.
DUI Checkpoints:
• Quarter 2: Implement 1 DUI checkpoint
• Quarter 4: Implement 1 DUI checkpoint
The objective of the DUI checkpoints is to enhance road safety by reducing incidents of driving under the influence. These planned checkpoints will serve as strategic points of intervention to identify and deter impaired driving, thereby contributing to a safer community. 512
Schedule A
DUI Saturation Patrols:
• Quarter 1: Conduct 1 DUI saturation patrols
• Quarter 2: Conduct 2 DUI saturation patrols
• Quarter 3: Conduct 2 DUI saturation patrols
• Quarter 4: Conduct 1 DUI saturation patrols
The goal of the DUI saturation patrols is to increase enforcement efforts and reduce the occurrence of DUI incidents. By conducting targeted and intensified patrols during specific quarters, law enforcement aims to enhance deterrence, detect potential offenders, and ultimately improve road safety.
These goals and objectives for the different activities are aligned with the overall aim of the Rocklin DUI Enforcement and Education FY24-25 Project, which is to promote responsible and safe driving practices, reduce the incidents of driving under the influence, and enhance community safety.
Project Performance Evaluation
The effectiveness and positive impact of the Project will be evaluated using a combination of quantitative and qualitative data collection methods. For community outreach events, data will be gathered by engaging with visitors to the DUI Education and Enforcement Trailer/booth and documenting their feedback. The Police Department will interact with the public and distribute informational materials with statistical data about driving under the influence, along with tokens carrying reminders about the consequences of impaired driving.
To evaluate education outreach through schools, interactive question and answer sessions will be conducted with students and faculty, followed by written surveys after presentations or simulations have been conducted.
The number of DUI arrests of underage persons will be compared to the number of educational presentations delivered to quantify the effectiveness of the education program.
For DUI checkpoints, data will be collected on the number of vehicles checked, citations or arrests made for DUI/DUID, and other issued citations. These figures will be compared with data from previous quarters and years to identify any correlations between education and outreach efforts and the actual checkpoint data.
DUI saturation patrols will be executed by deploying officers to areas with a high likelihood of DUI/DUID incidents. The patrols will be conducted during specific quarters to intensify enforcement efforts and reduce DUI occurrences. The effectiveness of these patrols will be evaluated by collecting quantitative data, including the number of DUI/DUID arrests made and citations issued, as well as qualitative data gathered through feedback and observations from the deployed officers. These data points will be compared with previous quarterly and yearly data to identify any correlations between education outreach and the actual saturation patrol outcomes. The findings will be communicated to internal and external stakeholders, ensuring effective sharing and dissemination of the Project's results.
The collected quantitative and qualitative data will be compared to data from previous quarters and years to measure the impact of the Project. A communication plan will be implemented to share the Project results with internal and external stakeholders, ensuring the effective dissemination of the findings.
Internally, the success of the Project will be assessed through quarterly reports submitted to the Chief of Police at the Rocklin Police Department. These reports will provide a comprehensive overview of the Project's activities, including the number of DUI Saturation Patrols, DUI Checkpoints, educational outreach initiatives, and outcomes such as the number of arrests, citations, and community engagement. The reports will enable the Chief to evaluate the Project's progress towards achieving its goals and objectives, identifying any areas that may require adjustment or additional resources. Additionally, ongoing training provided to the officers involved in the Project will serve as an internal measure of success, ensuring they possess the necessary skills and knowledge for effective DUI enforcement and education. Regular training sessions will keep the officers updated on best practices, legal updates, and techniques, further contributing to the Project's success.
Program Sustainability
The City of Rocklin Police Department is aware of the importance of reducing reliance on future grant funding 513
Schedule A
for the DUI/DUID Enforcement and Education Program - specifically for equipment and overtime expenses.
While implementing the program last year and looking ahead to the future, the Department has been mindful of funding needs.
To reduce reliance on future grant funding, the City plans to budget for the replacement costs of necessary equipment and overtime expenses to ensure that the Department can effectively and efficiently deploy for DUI/DUID checkpoints, saturation patrols, and education outreach. The City recognizes that these expenses are necessary to continue the mission and priority of keeping the community safe, especially given the recent challenges of recruiting and hiring police officers nationwide.
The Department incrementally budgets for assets on a replacement schedule based on their estimated useful life expectancy and likelihood to replace. It is estimated that the trailer will remain useful for around 20 years, the pedal carts will remain useful for approximately 10 years, the impaired goggles will remain useful for approximately five years, the Mobile Pro System Surveillance Trailer will remain useful for approximately 10 years, and the Pendar X10 will remain useful for approximately 10 years. As such, the Department will budget for replacement costs accordingly.
Additionally, the Department will budget for necessary overtime to perform the checkpoints, saturation patrols, and education outreach. The Department is aware of the need to balance overtime needs with maintaining a healthy workforce to avoid officer burnout. To address this, the Department is continuing its creative recruiting efforts to attract and retain top candidates for employment.
In summary, the City of Rocklin Police Department is taking proactive steps to reduce the reliance on future grant funding for the DUI/DUID Enforcement and Education Program by budgeting for necessary replacement equipment costs and overtime expenses. By doing so, the Department can continue to effectively deploy for checkpoints, saturation patrols, and education outreach, enhancing community safety, and ensuring a sustainable program for the future.
Administrative Support
The successful implementation of the Project requires administrative support, including personnel and physical resources. The Department has one Administrative Analyst who oversees the grant process from evaluation and submission to final claim in addition to ensuring compliance with the grant agreement and terms. The Department also has 67 sworn staff who regularly interact with the public and several specifically assigned officers who work directly with schools and school-aged kids to support the project, including completing programmatic work like DUI checkpoints, saturation patrols, and education outreach, as well as providing necessary narratives of accomplishments for grant requirements.
Additionally, the Department benefits from more than 60 volunteer staff who manage information booths at community events and support sworn staff with DUI checkpoints by preparing equipment and materials and providing traffic control and other necessary duties.
The City has a Finance Department that ensures the proper financial recording and reporting of grants, including tracking of equipment and depreciation and asset control, supporting the administration of the grant project.
The City of Rocklin has a 131-year history many years of applying for and managing numerous local, state, and federal grants. The Police Department specifically applies for an average of five grants annually, including those offered by the Department of Justice, California Office of Traffic Safety, County of Placer, California Office of Emergency Services, and California Highway Patrol, among others. Last year alone, the Department applied for and received grants from the California Highway Patrol Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program, the Board of State and Community Corrections Officer Wellness Grant, and the Community Oriented Policing Services through the Department of Justice.
Therefore, the Department has the necessary administrative support, personnel, and physical resources to successfully implement the Project, building on its previous management and grant experience and supplementing with available personnel and volunteer staff.
The physical resources needed for the successful implementation of the Project include:
514
Schedule A
1. DUI/DUID Enforcement and Education Trailer: This resource will be utilized to showcas e and demonstrate the program's message to the target audience and can be used for many years. The estimated useful life of the trailer is 20 years.
2. Pedal Carts: Pedal carts will be used as part of the program to engage middle and high school -aged students, spreading the message of not driving while impaired. The estimated useful life of a pedal cart is 10 years.
3. Impaired Goggles: These goggles will be used to simulate the experience of impaired vision and highlight the dangers of driving under the influence. The estimated useful life of impaired goggles is 5 years.
4. Mobile Pro System Surveillance Trailer: This surveillance trailer will aid the Department in its DUI/DUID checkpoints and saturation patrols. It is an important physical resource for effective enforcement. The estimated useful life of the surveillance trailer is 10 years.
5. Pendar X10: The Pendar X10 is another resource that will be used for DUI/DUID checkpoints and saturation patrols. It is essential for safe, accurate testing and enforcement. The estimated useful life of the Pendar X10 is 10 years.
In addition to these specific physical resources, signage, educational materials, safety gear, and other items will be used to ensure officers and volunteers carry out their roles safely and effectively.
It is important for the City to budget for the replacement costs of these physical resources and plan for their maintenance and upkeep over time, in order to ensure the longevity and continued success of the program. 515

Raw Water Mainline Emergency Repair
Date:
August 13, 2024
Submitted By:
Justin Nartker, Director of Public Works
Department:
Public Works
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Declaring the Existence of an Emergency and Accepting the Repair of the Raw Water Mainline on Whitney Oaks Boulevard and Park Drive, Under the City Manager's Authorization in Accordance with Section 22050 of the Public Contract Code.
Background:
On June 14, 2024, the City received a report of a large raw water leak at Whitney Oaks Boulevard and Park Drive. Staff responded and found a significant break in the 6-inch raw water mainline that feeds 40 different valves for various landscaping areas throughout the vicinity. This mainline serves five (5) irrigation clocks and landscape areas associated with portions of the Whitney Oaks Homeowner Association (WO HOA) and the Whitney Oaks Golf Course. Photos are included as Attachment 2.
Staff determined that the mainline break was substantial and constituted an emergency situation, as the velocity of water from the broken pipe was causing localized flooding and erosion. Additionally, turning off the water until the bid process was complete would result in a significant loss of both private (golf course, WO HOA, commercial property) and public (roadway landscape) plant life.
Due to the circumstances, the situation would not permit a delay resulting from competitive solicitation for bids and constitutes an emergency within the meaning of California Public Contract Code section 1102.
In compliance with the Public Contract Code and the Rocklin Municipal Code, a subsequent report of the emergency repair will be provided to the City Council. The total cost for this work is $7,917.43, which is under the City Manager’s signing authority, and the work was completed on June 19, 2024.
Pursuant to Rocklin Municipal Code section 3.04.090 (A) and California Public Contract Code section 22050, the City Council must now review the decision to initiate emergency repairs.
Item Number 15
544
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) making findings based on substantial evidence that the emergency would not have permitted a delay resulting from a competitive solicitation for bids and that the action was necessary to respond to the emergency.
Fiscal Impact:
The total cost of the emergency repair was $7,917.43. Funds re available in the Fiscal Year 2024/25 Operating Budget in the SB325 Gas Tax (210) fund.

Section 1. The above referenced recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference.

Purchase of One Chevrolet 2500 Double Cab Truck from Winner Chevrolet
Date:
August 13, 2024
Submitted By:
Matt McClure, Public Works Manager
Justin Nartker, Director of Public Works
Department:
Public Works
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Approving and Authorizing the Purchase of One Chevrolet 2500 Double Cab Truck from Winner Chevrolet and Authorizing the City Manager to Purchase the Vehicle from Winner Chevrolet.
Background:
The Police Department's Community Service Officer (CSO) vehicle is due for replacement.
Staff has identified a contract through the State of California that meets the specifications for the CSO vehicle replacement.
Rocklin Municipal Code Section 3.04.090(C), (D), authorizes the City to enter into cooperative purchasing arrangements with other governmental entities without separate competitive bidding. The state's program provides local government agencies access to competitively bid and publicly solicited contracts from vendors who supply goods and services. These contracts are created through a competitive bid process that allows members to “piggyback” on the competitive bid contract, eliminating the need to complete the individual RFP/bid process and allowing the City to move quickly to secure services/equipment.
Pursuant to the state contract, Winner Chevrolet Inc. (Elk Grove) has issued quotes for the vehicle noted above (Attachment 2) for a total amount of $53,137 (rounded). Staff recommends the City Council authorize the purchase of the vehicle from Winner Chevrolet in an amount not to exceed $53,137 (rounded), pursuant to California Contract No. 1-22-23- 23D (Attachment 3).
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact as the funds are budgeted and available in the Fiscal Year 2024/25 Operating Budget.

Date:
August 13, 2024
Submitted By:
Megan Bressem, Management Analyst
Daniel Choe, Deputy Director of Administrative Services Department:
Administrative Services - Finance
Recommendation:
Conduct a Public Hearing and Consider the Following Actions:
A
.
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin of Annexation of Territory to Community Facilities District No. 1 (Annexation No. 85), Authorizing the Levy of a Special Tax, and Submitting Levy of Tax to Qualified Electors (Vista Oaks, APNs 046- 010-007-000 and 046-020-003-000).
B
.
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Declaring Results of Special Annexation Election, Determining Validity of Prior Proceedings, and Directing Recording of Amended Notice of Special Tax Lien Pertaining to Community Facilities District No. 1 (Annexation No. 85) (Vista Oaks, APNs 046-010-007-000 and 046-020-003-000).
Background:
On June 25, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2024-153, a Resolution of Intention to Annex Territory to Rocklin Community Facilities District (CFD) No. 1 (Annexation No. 85) and to Authorize the Levy of Special Taxes Therein to Amend the Rate and Set a Public Hearing Date regarding Vista Oaks, a planned residential development property located along the northern terminus of Monument Springs Drive and western terminus of China Garden Road (Assessor's Parcel Numbers 046-010-007-000 and 046-020-003-000). A map of the annexation area is included as Attachment 3 for reference. A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Placer Herald on July 12, 2024.
The development of Vista Oaks is conditioned on, among other things, annexation into CFD No. 1. CFD No. 1 provides funding for the operation and maintenance of fire protection and suppression services and ambulance and paramedic services.
There are two resolutions for City Council consideration. Resolution A (Attachment 1) finds that no majority protest exists, orders the annexation, and authorizes the levy of the special tax, subject to approval by a two-thirds vote of the landowners.
Item Number 1
595
In anticipation of approval of the annexation, the election has already occurred, and Resolution B (Attachment 2) approves the canvass of the election, declares the results of the election, and orders the recording of the amended notice of special tax lien, which gives notice that the land within the project area is now subject to the special tax.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no direct fiscal impact to the General Fund from the staff recommendation. Adoption of the attached resolutions will allow special taxes to be levied and collected for CFD No. 1 to pay for services provided to the annexation territory.
