Project Description Background In November 2017, the City of Vista (City) certified the Supplemental Program Environmental Impact Report (SPEIR) for the 2017 Comprehensive Sewer Master Plan (2017 CSMP) (State Clearinghouse No. 2007091072). The 2017 CSMP identifies a set of recommended projects for inclusion in the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and an operations and maintenance (O&M) Program. The SPEIR included a programmatic evaluation of the potential environmental impacts of the projects and associated O&M Program, as contemplated in the CSMP. The O&M Program component of the 2017 CSMP provides a continuation of the City’s existing condition assessment program consistent with the City’s adopted Sanitary Sewer Management Plan (SSMP). The City maintains multiple easements to facilitate access to the conveyance and pumping facilities within and outside its service area. These easements range from 10 to 20 feet in width to accommodate maintenance equipment. The SPEIR for the 2017 CSMP included an environmental analysis for the O&M Program activities, which includes repair, upgrade, and/or rehabilitation of existing unpaved access roads that provide access to the City’s trunk sewers. The City’s existing Oceanside-Vista, Reach 1, (OV1) trunk sewer line was constructed in 1989 and is located in the central portion of the City’s service area in unincorporated San Diego County. OV1 consists of a 12-inch sewer line and is located within a narrow easement across multiple private properties with limited or no access. The City needs to develop improved sewer maintenance access to OV1 through the securing of multiple permanent easements and reconstruction of the existing access road. The activities required to repair, upgrade, and/or rehabilitate access roads, including OV1, are similar in nature to the description of O&M activities considered and analyzed in the City’s SPEIR. For this reason, the City is proposing to add OV1 to the list of improvements identified in the City’s O&M Program and CSMP. This document evaluates whether the improvements identified for OV1 are covered within the scope of the SPEIR analysis and supporting mitigation monitoring and reporting program (MMRP). Project Goals and Objectives The City’s goal for implementing the proposed project is to obtain the requirement easements to provide all weather access to the manholes for OV1, including during the 50-year storm event. The proposed project would improve sewer maintenance access by providing the City’s O&M staff with reliable and safe access to the OV1 trunk sewer line via a dedicated easement. Improved and reliable access during large rainfall events is required for the City to clean and maintain the trunk sewer line consistent with the SSMP to minimize the potential for sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) . Implementation of the project would support compliance with the City’s SSMP in accordance with the State Water Resources Control Board’s (SWRCB)

  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page.

C. crassifolius has long been recognized as part of the Cerastes group of Ceanothus based on morphology, life-history, and crossing studies (McMinn 1939a, Nobs 1963). In phylogenetic analyses based on RNA and chloroplast DNA, Hardig et al. (2000) found C. crassifolius clustered into the Cerastes group and in each analysis shared a clade with C. ophiochilus. In molecular and morphological analyses, Burge et al. (2011) also found C. crassifolius clustered into Cerastes. Cerastes included over 20 taxa and numerous subtaxa in both studies. Eight Cerastes taxa occur in southern California (see I. E. Related taxa in region). E. Related taxa in region In southern California, the related Cerastes taxa include: C.

  • Terr–3 Special-Status Plant Populations
    TERR–3 SPECIAL-STATUS PLANT POPULATIONS 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY During 2001 and 2002, the review of existing information, agency consultation, vegetation community mapping, and focused special-status plant surveys were completed. Based on California Native Plant Society’s (CNPS) Electronic Inventory of Rare and Endangered Vascular Plants of California (CNPS 2001a), CDFG’s Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB; CDFG 2003), USDA-FS Regional Forester’s List of Sensitive Plant and Animal Species for Region 5 (USDA-FS 1998), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Species List (USFWS 2003), and Sierra National Forest (SNF) Sensitive Plant List (Clines 2002), there were 100 special-status plant species initially identified as potentially occurring within the Study Area. Known occurrences of these species were mapped. Vegetation communities were evaluated to locate areas that could potentially support special-status plant species. Each community was determined to have the potential to support at least one special-status plant species. During the spring and summer of 2002, special-status plant surveys were conducted. For each special-status plant species or population identified, a CNDDB form was completed, and photographs were taken. The locations were mapped and incorporated into a confidential GIS database. Vascular plant species observed during surveys were recorded. No state or federally listed special-status plant species were identified during special- status plant surveys. Seven special-status plant species, totaling 60 populations, were identified during surveys. There were 22 populations of Mono Hot Springs evening-primrose (Camissonia sierrae ssp. alticola) identified. Two populations are located near Mammoth Pool, one at Bear Forebay, and the rest are in the Florence Lake area.

  • Alkali Milk-Vetch)
    Glenn Counties (California Natural Diversity Data Base 2001 and unprocessed data). Five occurrences are afforded some protection by virtue of their location on public land, but no particular conservation efforts have been undertaken in those areas. 2. ASTRAGALUS TENER VAR. TENER (ALKALI MILK-VETCH) a. Description and Taxonomy Taxonomy.—Alkali milk-vetch is in the pea family Fabaceae. Gray (1864) named Astragalus tener, commonly known as alkali milk-vetch. He gave the type locality only as “California ... from near Monterey or San Francisco” (Gray 1864:206). No varieties were named until Barneby (1950) reduced Astragalus titi, commonly known as coastal dunes milk-vetch, from a full species to the variety Astragalus tener var. titi. In so doing, the combination Astragalus tener var. tener was created automatically to represent Gray’s original material (i.e., alkali milk-vetch), according to accepted rules of botanical nomenclature. Another common name by which this variety is known is slender rattle-weed (Abrams 1944). Description and Identification.—Astragalus tener var. tener (Figure II-22) is similar in most respects to A. tener var. ferrisiae. However, the two taxa differ in leaflet shape and fruit morphology. Astragalus tener var. tener leaflets vary, even on the same plant, from narrow and pointed to wedge-shaped with blunt or notched tips. In A. tener var. tener, the pod is only 1 to 2.5 centimeters (0.4 to 1.0 inch) long and straight or only slightly curved. The base of the pod is typically rounded; if stalk-like, the base is much less than 3 millimeters (0.12 inch) long.
