Geomorphic Setting
DRAFT NCCP/MSAA/HCP CHAPTER 3: EXISTING BIOLOGICAL AND HYDROLOGIC/ GEOMORPHIC SETTING This Chapter describes the biological setting of the approximately 131,600-acre Southern NCCP/MSAA/HCP study area, including portions of the CNF (Figure 3-M). Within the study area, the approximately 91,660 acres of non-federal land defines the planning area for the NCCP/MSAA/HCP. Management of resources in the CNF is the responsibility of the USFS. Therefore, the description of the biological and hydrologic/geomorphic setting includes a general description of the CNF, but the main focus of this section is the 91,660-acre planning area. The 91,660-acre planning area is further subdivided into the four Subarea Plan areas described in Chapter 1 (Figure 3-M). The Subareas total approximately 86,339 acres. The remaining 5,321 acres are comprised on the cities of Lake Forest and Dana Point, and internal areas that are “not a part” of the Subareas, such as Ladera Ranch, Las Flores, the wastewater treatment plant in lower Chiquita, Tesoro High School, FTC-North, and the Nichols Institute bounded by Caspers Wilderness Park. To describe the biological setting of the NCCP/MSAA/HCP planning area, this Chapter includes the following sections: Section 3.1 Database development methods; Section 3.2 Vegetation communities that make up theplanning area and the key wildlife species that are typical of, or indicate, high quality vegetation communities; Section 3.3 Existing geomorphic and hydrologic conditions and processes; Section 3.4 Sensitive wildlife and plant species distribution in the planning areaand subarea plan areas; and Section 3.5 Regional and subregional wildlife habitat linkages. -
Sec 05 11 Tribal and Cultural Resources
Tribal and Cultural Resources 5.11 TRIBAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCES 5.11.1 PURPOSE This section identifies existing cultural (including historic and archeological resources), paleontological and tribal resources within the Study Area, and provides an analysis of potential impacts associated with implementation of the General Plan Update. Potential impacts are identified and mitigation measures to address potentially significant impacts are recommended, as necessary. This section is primarily based upon the Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources Technical Report for the Rancho Santa Margarita General Plan Update, Rancho Santa Margarita, Orange County, California (Cultural Study), and the Paleontological Resources Impact Assessment Report for the Rancho Santa Margarita General Plan Update, Orange County, California (Paleontological Assessment), both prepared by SWCA Environmental Consultants (SWCA) and dated April 2019; refer to Appendix F, Cultural/ Paleontological Resources Assessment. 5.11.2 EXISTING REGULATORY SETTING Numerous laws and regulations require Federal, State, and local agencies to consider the effects a project may have on cultural resources. These laws and regulations establish a process for compliance, define the responsibilities of the various agencies proposing the action, and prescribe the relationship among other involved agencies (i.e., State Historic Preservation Office and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation). The National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966, as amended, the California Environmental -

Early Southern California History (1769-1800) by John P
Early Southern California History (1769-1800) by John P. Schmal (2019) This presentation explores the original Spanish settlement of Southern California in the late 18th Century, as well as the large number of indigenous communities that existed in the area. Of special interest will be the Expedition of 1781 from Álamos, Sonora, which led to the establishment of Los Angeles, San Buenaventura and Santa Barbara. Copyright © 2019 John P. Schmal Background Sebastián Vizcaíno (1548 – 1624) explored the California coast in 1602-1603. However, after this Spain lost interest in California and did not send any expeditions to California for over a century-and-a-half. Fearing that the Russians were moving down from Alaska to California, Spain regained interest in California and decided to establish some settlements in the area in the 1760s and beyond. José de Gálvez (1720 – 1787), Inspector General for the King of Spain was given permission by King Carlos III to explore Alta California and establish the first permanent Spanish presence there. Gálvez was supported in the planning of an expedition by Carlos Francisco de Croix (1699 – 1786), Viceroy of New Spain, and Father Junípero Serra (1713 – 1784), the head of the Franciscan mission to the Californias (Baja and Alta California). The expedition was planned in 1768. Gálvez placed Gaspar de Portolá (1723- 1786), recently appointed governor of Las Californias, in overall command of the expedition. Second in command was Captain Fernando Rivera y Moncada (1725 – 1781), commander of the Presidio at Loreto. 2 Copyright © 2019 John P. Schmal The San Diego Expeditions of 1769 Four expeditions were organized. -

Holy Fire Watershed Report
Burned Area Emergency Response Holy Fire Cleveland National Forest Hydrology and Watershed Specialist Report August 25, 2018 Overview of Horsethief Canyon above Interstate 15 Submitted by: Kelsha L. Anderson, Angeles National Forest Hydrologist I. Objectives This report summarizes the results from the hydrologic assessment of the Holy Fire in the center of the Santa Ana Mountains as part of the Burned Area Emergency Response (BAER). II Potential Values at Risk Values at Risk (VARs) on Forest Service land (FS) are addressed in Appendix D. Many VARs that could be impacted by the fire are on adjacent private, state, county, or local government lands. The State Watershed Emergency Response Team conducted a detailed analysis of non-FS VARs that will be published in a separate document. The FS BAER team and State WERT team collaborate and share information during post-fire assessments to ensure VARs are identified. On private lands, the primary contact for treatments is the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). III. Resource Condition Assessment Fire and Site Description The Holy Fire started on August 06, 2018 at 1:30pm (suspected arson). As of August 21, 2018 the fire had burned 22,982 acres (90% contained). The burn occurred adjacent to California State Highway 74 and Interstate 15. Much of the Holy Fire last burned between 1940-80’s.

May 29, 2020 Assemblymember Lorena Gonzalez Chair, Assembly Appropriations State Capitol, Room 2114 Sacramento, California 95814 RE: AB 1968 (Ramos) The Land Acknowledgement Act of 2021 – SUPPORT Dear Chair Gonzalez: The Surfrider Foundation strongly supports AB 1968, the Tribal Land Acknowledgement Act of 2020, which recognizes the land as an expression of gratitude and appreciation to those whose homelands we reside on, and is a recognition of the original people and nations who have been living on and stewarding the land since time immemorial. AB 1968 provides a learning opportunity for individuals who may have never heard the names of the tribes that continue to live on, learn from and care for the land. The Surfrider Foundation is a non-profit grassroots organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of our world’s oceans, waves and beaches through a powerful network. Founded in 1984, the Surfrider Foundation now maintains over one million supporters, activists and members, with more than 170 volunteer-led chapters and student clubs in the U.S., and more than 500 victories protecting our coasts. We have more than 20 chapters in along California’s coast, in areas including the ancestral homelands of indigenous peoples including the Chumash in Malibu, known as “Humaliwu” in the Chumash language, and Rincon, the Acjachemen in Trestles, known as “Panhe” in the Acjachemen language, the Amah Mutsun in Steamer Lane, the Ohlone in Mavericks, and the Acjachemen and Tongva shared territory in Huntington Beach, known as “Lukupangma” in the Tongva and Acjachemen language. These indigenous people continue to live in these ancestral homelands today and have embraced the sport of surfing in these areas, although the clichéd imagery of surf culture fails to reflect these facts. -

Mendoza 2019 ABSTRACT OF THESIS The Aqueduct Between Us- Inserting and Asserting an Indigenous California Indian Perspective about Los Angeles Water by AnMarie Ramona Mendoza Master of Arts in American Indian Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Jessica R. Cattelino, Chair A broad examination of settler colonial hegemony of the City of Los Angeles and its municipal water institution the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) is employed to understand the impacts of erasure for two tribal communities; the Tongva who are the original people of the LA Basin and the Owens Valley Paiute (Nüümü) who are impacted by the construction of the Los Angeles Aqueduct. The paths of each tribe are different in terms of federal recognition and water rights claims but there are notable similarities in dispossession enacted by the City of LA that in turn have produced unique tribally led counter hegemonic movements to insert native history and assert tribal sovereignty to protect their ancestral water.
