Title

Regusci Vineyard Conversion Agricultural Erosion Control Plan P21-00117-ECPA

Description

The proposed project involves the clearing of vegetation, earthmoving, and installation and maintenance of erosion control measures associated with the development of approximately 14.0 gross acres of new vineyard (i.e., development area, proposed clearing limits; approximately 8.9 net acres of vines) within eight vineyard blocks located on an approximate 162.62-acre parcel (i.e., project site). Average slopes within the development area range from 18% to 28%, with 1.2 acres occurring on slopes over 30%. There are 68 native trees proposed for removal as part of the project, consisting of (in descending order) predominantly coast live coast, blue oak, valley oak, and willow trees ranging in size from 6-inches diameter-at-breast-height (DBH) to 49-inches DBH. Trees are proposed to be replanted and preserved at a 3:1 ratio to ensure compliance with Napa County Code (NCC) Section 18.108.020(D). The vineyard would be irrigated with water sourced from an existing groundwater well, and pipelines would be located within existing roadways, vineyard avenues, and/or within the proposed clearing limits. There is existing wildlife exclusion fencing located around the perimeter of the project site and no new wildlife fencing is proposed.
