Also termed The 1889 Line or the Western Upland Boundary, or simply the 1889 Line. DEFLATION PLAIN: The low area between the foredune and old dune ridge, where the foredune blocks the deposition of new sand and wind scours and erodes the surface, often down to the water table. FOREDUNE: The large, currently developing primary dune, closest to the ocean. INTERDUNAL WETLAND: Wetlands located in small interdunal depressions to extensive deflation plains behind stabilized foredunes. Interdunal wetlands are primarily fresh water; they have mineral soil; and they are groundwater dependent with seasonal fluctuations. MEAN HIGH WATER: The average of all the high water heights observed over a specific 19- year period (currently 1983 through 2001) called the National Tidal Datum Epoch. Also termed Mean High Tide. MITIGATION SEQUENCING: A step-wise approach to mitigating the impacts of an action, whereby a preferred order is taken, emphasizing avoidance of the impact The preferred order of the mitigation sequence is as follows: 1. Avoid impacts by not taking a certain action or parts of an action; 2. Minimize impacts by limiting the degree or magnitude of the action and its implementation by using appropriate technology or by taking affirmative steps to avoid or reduce impacts; 3. Rectify impacts by repairing, rehabilitating, or restoring the affected environment; 4. Reduce or eliminate impacts over time by preservation and maintenance operations; 5. Compensate for the impact by replacing, enhancing, or providing substitute resources or environments; and for any of these five approaches 6. Monitor impacts, mitigation, and compensatory mitigation projects, taking appropriate corrective measures. ORDINARY HIGH WATER MARK (OHWM): On lakes, streams, and tidal water, that mark that will be found by examining the bed and banks and ascertaining where

    Chorizanthe howellii (Howell’s spineflower) 5-Year Review: Summary and Evaluation Chorizanthe howellii: MacKerricher State Park, California Photograph utilized courtesy Peter Warner, Fort Bragg, California U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Arcata Fish and Wildlife Office Arcata, California December 2011 5-YEAR REVIEW Chorizanthe howellii (Howell’s spineflower) I. GENERAL INFORMATION Purpose of 5-Year Reviews: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is required by section 4(c)(2) of the Endangered Species Act to conduct a status review of each listed species at least once every 5 years. The purpose of a 5-year review is to evaluate whether or not the species’ status has changed since it was listed (or since the most recent 5-year review). Based on the 5-year review, we recommend whether the species should be removed from the list of endangered and threatened species, be changed in status from endangered to threatened, or be changed in status from threatened to endangered. Our original listing of a species as endangered or threatened is based on the existence of threats attributable to one or more of the five threat factors described in section 4(a)(1) of the Endangered Species Act, and we must consider these same five factors in any subsequent consideration of reclassification or delisting of a species. In the 5-year review, we consider the best available scientific and commercial data on the species, and focus on new information available since the species was listed or last reviewed. If we recommend a change in listing status based on the results of the 5-year review, we must propose to do so through a separate rule-making process defined in the Endangered Species Act that includes public review and comment.

  • Preserving the Fort Ross Archaeological Record]
    PRESERVING THE FORT ROSS ARCHAEOLOGICAL RECORD] E. Breck Parkman 2560 Meier Road Sebastopol, CA 95472 ABSTRACT A major archaeological program is currently under way at Fort Ross State Historic Park, located on California's North Coast. The two major aspects of the program concern the Native Alaskan Village site and the Russian Orthodox Cemetery. Traditionally, little has been known about either the Village or Cemetery, and this lack of understanding has made their protection more difficult. It is the author's contention that the Fort Ross archaeological resources must be made more visible if they are to be preserved. This paper, then, is a discussion of the rationale behind the program's implementation. INTRODUCTION the California Department ofParks and Rec­ reation (hereafter, DPR).
