California tiger salamander (Ambystoma californiense, CTS), Swainson's hawk (Buteo swainsoni, SWHA), San Joaquin kit fox (Vulpes macrotis mutica, SJKF), and hairy Orcutt grass (Orcuttia pilosa, HaOrGr) (collectively, the Covered Species). CTS, SWHA, and SJKF are species designated as threatened and HaOrGr is designated as endangered under CESA. Major Amendment No. 15 makes seventeen changes to the ITP, as previously amended. Changes include: updates the Principal Officer and Contact Person, removes application of dust suppressants from the list of Covered Activities on page 45 because it is not a vegetation- or ground-disturbance activity that would preclude subsequent re-surveys prior to vegetation- or ground-disturbance Covered Activities in these work areas, corrects the header for Condition of Approval 6.2 changing it from Designated Biologist(s) to Biological Monitor(s) which applies to both Designated Biologist(s) and General Biological Monitor(s), allows for alternatives to current boundary delineation methods in Condition of Approval 6.10, clarifies what needs to be included in the 14-Day Notification and when a Work Area becomes inactive requiring new Pre-Construction Surveys and a new 14-Day Notification, allows for a San Joaquin kit fox General Biological Monitor to serve as monitor for new subsequent vegetation and soil disturbing activities in Condition of Approval 7.3 and 8.11, adds holes, sumps, trenches, pipes to the inspection list in Condition of Approval 7.3 and clarifies that the once monthly inspection for inactive areas is not applicable if those areas have long term covered holes, sumps, trenches, or pipes which must still be checked daily, clarifies how Exhibit 5 has been changed through the course of the amendment process and now indicates only the Construction Footprint and no longer shows all the Land Cover and Habitat Types from the original ITP Application, adds reference to Exhibit 10 for hairy Orcutt grass Conditions of Approval, changes the timing for the requirement to provide Geographic Information System layers and the associated metadata to CDFW from 10 days to at least 14 calendar days to match Condition of Approval 7.1, changes the geographic areas considered to have potential habitat for California tiger salamander, limiting the range to specifically north of the City of Fresno at Dakota Ave west of southbound SR 99 and north of the San Joaquin River east of southbound SR 99 as depicted in the updated Exhibit 5 Map Book, clarifies what needs to be included in the Monthly Compliance Report, changes the equipment fueling requirement to be 100 feet from aquatic habitat feature because avoidance of all suitable habitat, including Barren, is not feasible, allows for alternatives to current excavation coverings or ramping for animal escape in Condition of Approval 8.7, allows for mechanical assistance to be utilized according to the CDFW-approved California tiger salamander Salvage and Relocation Plan and clarifies that small mammal burrow excavation will extend into the 50-foot buffer zone except when the buffer zone is outside of the Construction Footprint, allows for General Biological Monitors under the direct supervision of the Designated Biologist(s) to assist with the excavation of potential San Joaquin kit fox dens, adds two new Specific Measures for San Joaquin kit fox, one for unblocking temporarily blocked San Joaquin kit fox Dens and one for pile driving, and returns the California tiger salamander aquatic feature buffer line inadvertently removed from Exhibit 5 when it changed from showing land cover types to just the Construction Footprint in Amendment 7 but reduces it from 1.3 miles to 0.7 miles to match the distance that requires burrow excavation implementation.
