  • 4.4 Biological Resources
    Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail Network Master Plan EIR Section 4.4 Biological Resources 4.4 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES This section addresses biological resources issues related to the proposed MBSST Network project described in Section 2.0, Project Description. A variety of terrestrial and aquatic habitats are present along the three distinct trail reaches (northern, central and Watsonville reaches) of the proposed MBSST Network. The proposed MBSST Network ranges in elevation from sea level to approximately 30 to 40 feet above sea level throughout the corridor. Portions of the proposed project are located within the Coastal Zone of Santa Cruz County. Rincon Consultants, Inc. biologists visited the site on December 3, 11, and 12, 2012 and conducted reconnaissance-level floral and wildlife surveys along the proposed MBSST Network. To support the field investigation, data on biological resources were collected from numerous sources, including relevant literature, maps of natural resources, and data on special- status species and sensitive habitat information obtained from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW, formerly the California Department of Fish and Game), California Natural Diversity Data Base (CNDDB) (2003; queried August 2012), the California Native Plant Society online Inventory of Rare, Threatened, and Endangered Plants of California (2012), and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Information, Planning and Conservation System (IPaC) (2012b). The USFWS Critical Habitat Mapper (2012a) and National Wetlands Inventory (NWI; 2012c) were also queried. 4.4.1 Setting a. Habitats. The proposed MBSST Network contains 12 habitats mapped by the CDFW California Wildlife Habitat Relationships (CWHR) habitat classification system (Table 4.4-1).

    4.8 HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY This section discusses and analyzes the surface hydrology, groundwater, and water quality characteristics of the Planning Area. The information provided in this section is based on the Zone 40 Water Supply Draft Master Plan Update (2002), the Water Master Plan for Areas Adjacent to Zone 40 Water Supply Master Plan Update’s Study Area (1998), the Sacramento Stormwater Quality Improvement Plan (2000), the Local Floodplain Management Plan for the County of Sacramento (2001), The Water Quality Control Plan for the California Regional Water Quality Control Board Central Valley Region: the Sacramento River Basin and the San Joaquin River Basin (1998), the Sacramento County General Plan Update Environmental Impact Report (1992), the East Franklin Drainage Corridor Alternative Design Project (2002), and various drainage master plans for creeks throughout the Elk Grove Planning Area. 4.8.1 EXISTING SETTING SURFACE WATER Sacramento County is part of the Sacramento River watershed, which covers approximately 27,000 square miles, with 400 miles of river from Lake Shasta to the convergence of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. The Planning Area is also part of this larger watershed. More specifically, surface water resources in the Planning Area are part of the Morrison Creek Stream Group, and include Elder, Elk Grove, Laguna (and tributaries), Morrison, Strawberry, and Whitehouse Creeks. Florin, Gerber, and Unionhouse creeks are located close to the Planning Area in Sacramento County. Deer Creek is located in the eastern portion of the Planning Area, parallel to the Cosumnes River. The Cosumnes River is the eastern border of the Planning Area, however, all of the creeks in the area drain into the Morrison Creek Stream Group, then eventually into the Sacramento Riv er.

  • Chapter 2 – Watershed Description
    Chapter 2 Watershed Description This chapter describes existing land uses and resource values in the watershed, and provides the foundation for assessing environmental conditions, which, along with input provided by the stakeholder community, provides the basis for developing management action recommendations presented in Chapter 6. The objectives of this chapter are to describe the watershed’s geographical and historical setting, to list natural and human-caused changes in the watershed that have occurred over time, and to describe key physical, chemical, and biological conditions that relate to existing beneficial uses and potential preservation, restoration, and enhancement opportunities in the watershed. 2.1 Geographical Setting The Laguna Creek Watershed encompasses approximately 65 square miles of land draining to Laguna Creek and its tributary streams, starting in northeast Sacramento County (Figure 2-1). Laguna Creek flows southwesterly from its headwaters at the eastern watershed boundary through Elk Grove to its confluence with Morrison Creek near the Sacramento Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant (SRWTP) just east of Interstate 5 (I-5). Downstream of the Morrison Creek confluence, water is either pumped to the Sacramento River, or during winter storms, may travel to the Beach Lake-Stone Lake system (Stone Lakes 2 Watershed Description 2-1 Figure 2-1 Laguna Creek Sub-Watersheds and Primary Tributaries 2-2 Laguna Creek Watershed Management Action Plan National Wildlife Refuge) before it ultimately discharges into the including a commercial nursery, school, and park district Sacramento River within the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta sprinkler systems.

    Lower Laguna Creek Open Space Trail Project Initial Study / Mitigated Negative Declaration Prepared for: City of Elk Grove March 4, 2016 Prepared by: © 2016 This page is intentionally left blank. NOTICE OF INTENT TO ADOPT A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION for the Lower Laguna Creek Open Space Trail Project Public Notice is hereby given that a Mitigated Negative Declaration (Environmental Report) is available for public review for the Lower Laguna Creek Open Space Trail Project (Project). Project Location: The Project site is located approximately 0.5 mile east of Franklin Boulevard, and approximately two miles west of California State Route 99, within portions of Sections 21 and 28, Township 7 North, Range 5 East on the USGS Florin, California 7.5‐minute quadrangle (38° 26’ 17.783” North, 121° 26’ 4.170” West). Proposed improvements within the City of Elk Grove would traverse through an existing area of open space as well as the Laguna Springs Unit 2 Open Space Preserve. Proposed improvements within the City of Sacramento would extend through the North Laguna Creek Wildlife Area. Project Description: Implementation of the Proposed Project would result in the development of a 1.15‐mile Class I multi‐use bikeway and educational area within the City of Elk Grove and City of Sacramento, California. The Proposed Project would develop a paved ten‐foot bikeway with two‐foot shoulders for use by pedestrians and bicyclists connecting trail users to existing trails, residences, schools, and commercial centers. Additional Project amenities would include landscape improvements, trail nodes and signage, approximately eight culverts, a signalized pedestrian crossing at Big Horn Boulevard, and an educational area with a new parking lot.
