Document Description
Within the 2.9-mile long Project Area, the Project will involve widening and elevating the State Route 41 roadway between post mile 6.5 and post mile 9.0 to correct non-standard shoulder widths, flooding potential, and line of sight issues. Beyond these points and within the 2.9-mile Project Area, the Project will involve repaving the existing roadway.
The Project could result in take of California tiger salamander (Ambystoma californiense) including mortality (“kill”), due to vehicle strikes, destruction of burrows, or temporary disturbance to habitat resulting in the loss of individuals over the three-year term of the ITP. California tiger salamander is listed as threatened under the California Endangered Species Act. Permittee will mitigate through permanent protection and long-term management of 38.3 acres of compensatory habitat for the Covered Species, OR the purchase of 38.3 Covered Species credits from a CDFW-approved mitigation or conservation bank. Amendment No. 1 extends the mitigation date to October 23, 2027 and permit expiration date to January 31, 2028, to allow enough time for the Permittee to satisfy the compensatory mitigation requirement.
