The basic thesis of the Protecting California’s lands and waters from ecologically-damaging invasive plants piece is hardly revolutionary; it is that not all non-native species are bad.

The assessment included an archival and records search, outreach to the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) and local Native American tribal representatives, and an examination of existing geoarchaeological sensitivity data for the Project environs. The Project will involve the formulation of management plans for Areas 1, 2, and 3 of the Rancho Cañada de Pala Preserve (Preserve). These plans will focus on biological resource management and monitoring, livestock grazing management, non-native invasive species management, road rehabilitation and maintenance, and infrastructure maintenance. The Preserve spans approximately 1,532.5 acres and straddles Poverty Ridge east of the City of Milpitas and just east of the Cherry Flat Reservoir (see Attachment A, Figures 1 and 2). All work performed by Pacific Legacy was intended to comply with implementing regulations and guidelines for Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (36 CFR 800) and the California Environmental Quality Act (14 CCR Section 15000 et seq.). The archival and records search revealed that no cultural resources have been previously recorded within the Project area, though one prehistoric archaeological site (P-43-002398) has been recorded within a surrounding 0.25-mile radius (see Attachment A, Figure 3).
