Document Description
As approved by the UC, the project involves the construction and operation of a major research University campus in Merced County which will sustain up to 25,000 full-time students and a contiguous associate community to support the need of the University. The project will result in impacts to 1,870 acres of CA tiger salamander Ambystoma Californiense), Swainson's hawk (Buteo swainsoni), and San Joaquin kit fox (Vulpes Macrotis mutica) habitat, including temporary impacts to 676 acres; and permanent impacts to 31 acres of succulent owl's clover habitat.
In the amended project, the permitted habitat disturbance does not change and there is no increase in impacts. Therefore, the habitat compensation requirements do not increase and will remain the same.
