feet of any grading or earthmoving activity. The survey shall be conducted by a qualified biologist, as determined by the City, and occur no more than 21 days prior to disturbance. If no active nests are found, no further action is required. If active nests for special status avian species or raptor nests are found within the construction footprint, construction activities shall be delayed within a minimum 500-foot buffer zone surrounding active raptor nests and a minimum 250-foot buffer zone surrounding nests of other special status avian species until the young have fledged. This buffer zone shall not extend beyond the Staples Ranch site. The appropriate buffer can be modified by the City in consultation with qualified biologists and the California Department of Fish and Game (CCFG). No action other than avoidance shall be taken without CDFG consultation. Completion of the nesting cycle shall be determined by a qualified ornithologist or biologist, as determined by the City. The buffer zone shall be delineated by highly visible temporary construction fencing, and no intensive disturbance (e.g., heavy equipment operation associated with construction, use of cranes or draglines, new rock crushing activities) or other project related activities that could cause nest abandonment or forced fledging, shall be initiated within the established buffer zone of an active nest. If the project is built in phases, this condition of approval shall be implemented for each phase of development. 7. Construction Access Plan. Prior to the issuance of final improvement plans or grading permits, the project developer shall develop and provide a construction access plan to be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer. This plan will include, at a minimum, the following construction traffic management strategies for each phase of development: a. Using El Charro Road for construction related access for all phases of development, to the maximum extent feasible, rather than Stoneridge Drive. b. A set of comprehensive traffic control measures, including the scheduling of major truck trips and deliveries to avoid peak traffic hours, detour signs and flag persons if required, lane closure procedures, signs, cones for drivers, and designated construction access routes. In addition, the information will include a construction staging plan for any public right of way used of each phase of the proposed project. c. Provisions of parking management and spaces for all construction workers for each phase of construction. d. Notification procedures for adjacent property owners regarding when major deliveries, detours, and lane closures will occur. Conditions of Approval/PUD-57 Appendix Conditions 8
