  • Updated Biological Inventory Report for the Rancho Malibu Religious Memorial Project, 4000 Malibu Canyon Road, City of Malibu, California
    November 18, 2015 Project Number 15-02065 Jake Jesson Assistant Project Manager Green Acres, LLC 22837 Pacific Coast Highway #775 Malibu, California 90265 Via Email: [email protected] Subject: Updated Biological Inventory Report for the Rancho Malibu Religious Memorial Project, 4000 Malibu Canyon Road, City of Malibu, California This letter report updates the previous findings of the Biological Inventory Report (BIR) for the Rancho Malibu Religious Memorial Project due to a change in the project scope and grading plan. An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was first prepared for this site (CBA, 1997) and certified by the City of Malibu City Council (March 23, 1998) along with conditions of approval contained in Conditional Use Permit No. 96-005. A BIR was prepared for the project site by Rincon Consultants, Inc. (Rincon) in May 2007 for plans to build a 146 room luxury hotel. An updated report was prepared in September 2011 (Rincon) as part of a Coastal Development Permit (CDP) application and Site Plan Review. In February of 2012, Rincon conducted a native tree assessment. In 2011 a reconnaissance survey and BIR update was prepared by Rincon to support the applicant’s plans to change the project from the development of a luxury hotel to a religious memorial and cemetery. This BIR (October 2015) documents the changes in potential impacts to special-status biological resources as they relate to the revised scope and grading plan for the proposed religious memorial and cemetery. PROJECT LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION The project site is located in the central portion of the City of Malibu, immediately north of Pacific Coast Highway between Malibu Canyon Road and Civic Center Way at 4000 Malibu Canyon Road.

  • Legally Listed Species of the California Central Coast Region (U S Fish and Wildlife Service and /Or the State of California)
    Legally Listed Species of the California Central Coast Region (U S Fish and Wildlife Service and /or the State of California) (Monterey, San Benito, San Luis Obispo, western Kern, Santa Barbara, and Ventura counties) The following taxa, in alphabetical order by scientific name, are listed either by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Endangered Species Act) or by the State of California, Department of Fish and Wildlife, Natural Diversity Database. A comprehensive list for the State of California is updated quarterly by the California Natural Diversity Database. [Special Vascular Plants, Bryophytes, and Lichens List.] The distribution of these species has been documented for California’s central coast region from Monterey and San Benito counties south to Ventura County, and including western Kern County. Scientific names are those used in Baldwin et. al., 2012, The Jepson Manual: vascular plants of California, UC Press, Berkeley. Where nomenclature has changed from the name used initially in the listing process, they are referenced to the current name (e.g., Arabis hoffmannii = Boechera hoffmannii). Listing Status FE = federally endangered (Endangered Species Act, 1973 as amended) FT = federally threatened (Endangered Species Act, 1973 as amended) SE = state endangered (California Endangered Species Act; Fish and Game Code §2050 et seq.) ST = state threatened (California Endangered Species Act; Fish and Game Code §2050 et seq.) SR = state rare (California Native Plant Protection Act; Fish and Game Code §1900 et seq.). Scientific Name Common Name Status Acmispon argophyllus var. niveus Santa Cruz Island birds-foot trefoil SE Arabis hoffmannii = Boechera hoffmannii Boechera hoffmannii Hoffmann’s rock-cress FE Arctostaphylos confertiflora Santa Rosa Island manzanita FE Arctostaphylos hookeri subsp.

  • Native Plant Palette
    EMERALD NECKLACE FOREST TO OCEAN EXPANDED VISION PLAN NATIVE PLANT PALETTE The Emerald Necklace Expanded Plan plant palette was developed as an easy to reference list for restoration and greening projects in the public spaces throughout the Emerald Necklace. The source documents for this plant palette are the Los Angeles River Master Plan Landscaping Guidelines and Plant Palettes (January, 2004) and the San Gabriel River Corridor Master Plan (June, 2006). The plant lists were developed by a cross disciplinary team of professionals concerned with protecting the seed bank and biological integrity of the river corridors – to be used by jurisdictions participating in greening and re-vegetation of the river corridors. This multi-disciplinary team included: Ecologists, Landscape Architects, Botanists, artists, the native plant society, local conservancies, the County of Los Angeles Department of Public Works, the US forest Service, the National Park Service, City Parks and Recreation departments, the Audubon Society, Friends of the Los Angeles River and the local watershed councils. We have found that plant managers at school districts and other facilities; both adjacent to the river and within the urban core are equally interested in planting California Watershed sensitive plants for their water conservation properties, ecological value, habitat enhancing properties as well as their heritage/ educational value. This is an exciting trend. Supplemental source documents have included the Army Corp of Engineers Plant list for ecological restoration at Santa Fe Dam as well as plant list for restoration of Monrovia Canyon within the City of Monrovia and nestled against boundary of the Angeles National Forest. The Angeles National Forest Management plan September 2005 - Los Cerritos Watershed Impacts Report were also consulted.

The Department has designated certain vertebrate species as "Species of Special Concern" because declining population levels, limited ranges, and/or continuing threats have made them vulnerable to extinction. The goal of designating species as "Species of Special Concern" is to halt or reverse their decline by calling attention to their plight and addressing the issues of concern early enough to secure their long term viability.

    FLx, "Sensitive Plant Species Surveys: Santa Clara River" (2004; 2004A) SENSITIVE PLANT SPECIES SURVEYS SANTA CLARA RIVER NEWHALL RANCH/VALENCIA COMPANY PROJECT SITES LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA Submitted to: NEWHALL LAND AND FARMING COMPANY 23823 Valencia Boulevard Valencia, CA 91355 ATTN: Mark Subbotin Submitted by: Anuja Parikh, Ph.D., PWS Nathan Gale, Ph.D., PWS FLx 1215 Bajada Santa Barbara, CA 93109 Tel/FAX: 805-564-1352 October 2004 Sensitive Plant Species Surveys, Santa Clara River 1. INTRODUCTION The Santa Clara River in the Newhall Ranch/Valencia Company project area, Los Angeles County, California, was surveyed for sensitive plant species and vegetation types in 2004. The area surveyed in the main channel of the river extended from the Water Reclamation Plant, located at Rye Canyon Road south of the junction of Interstate 5 and State Highway 126, westwards to the Los Angeles/Ventura County line. In addition, the tributary Castaic Creek was surveyed from Interstate 5 southwest to its confluence with the main river channel (Figure 1). The length of the Santa Clara River surveyed was approximately 6.8 miles, and that of Castaic Creek was about 2.6 miles. In both these riparian corridors, the extent of surveys included the scoured channel bottom, sandbars and islands in the channel, and low terraces at the immediate edge of the channels. Agricultural activities currently constitute the primary land use in most of the surrounding area. A team of two consultants from FLx (Dr. Anuja Parikh and Dr. Nathan Gale) conducted the vegetation and sensitive plant species surveys in two phases. The first survey was carried out from May 31 through June 3, and from June 15 through June 17, 2004.
