3731, 3745, 3737 Airway Drive, Santa Rosa Wildlife Research Associates and Habitat Assessment iii Jane Valerius Environmental Consulting SUMMARY The Airway Community Care Project, located at 3731, 3745, 3737 Airway Drive in northwestern Santa Rosa, includes development of the parcel and associated improvements, as depicted on the Construction Drawings (BKF Engineering 2015). Of the 3.9 acre parcel, comprising three parcels, development will occur over the entire 3.9 acres. Two drainages occur on the parcel, Piner Creek in the south and a tributary to Piner Creek in the north. Another channel originally identified as an irrigation ditch occurs in the central portion of the site. The eastern portion of this ditch has developed into a small wetland area. This ditch does not connect directly to Piner Creek as the end of the ditch has a berm that prevents water from flowing into Piner Creek. The emergent wetland area at the eastern end of the ditch is not suitable habitat for any of the three federally listed vernal pool plant species known to occur on the Santa Rosa Plain. Another very small wetland area (0.004 acres) was mapped in the east-central portion of the site not associated with any drainage. This wetland is also not suitable habitat for any of the three federally listed vernal pool plants. Two years of surveys were conducted and no special status plants were observed within the project site. This Habitat and Site Assessment presents the findings of our review of scientific literature and reports detailing previous studies conducted in the area, and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s (CDFW) Natural Diversity Data Base (CNDDB) for reported occurrences of special-status vegetation communities, plants and animals. Seven vegetation community types occur on the property. Native vegetation types have been classified corresponding to The Manual of California Vegetation Second Edition (Sawyer, et. al. 2009). One of these types, the Elymus triticoides herbaceous alliance or creeping rye grass turfs, is a sensitive natural community with an S3 state ranking indicating that there are 21-100 viable occurrences statewide (CNDDB 2014). Although not ranked as a sensitive natural community by The Manual of California (Sawyer, et. al. 2009), wetland habitats are considered to be sensitive as they are regulated under state and federal laws and regulations. Three wetland habitats have been described for the property which are Typha (angustifolia, domingensis, latifolia) herbaceous alliance or cattail marshes, Eleocharis macrostachya herbaceous alliance or pale spike rush marshes and seasonal wetland. As part of this Habitat Assessment, we conducted a site visit of all habitats on the site to evaluate the potential for occurrence of 54 special-status plant species and 18 special-status wildlife species. All vegetation and structures were assessed for potentially suitable bird and bat habitat. An initial reconnaissance level survey was conducted on November 15, 2012, which was followed by focused surveys for plants conducted between April and June 2013. A nesting bird survey and a bat habitat assessment were conducted on May 24, 2013. Additional plant surveys were conducted from April to May 2014 as part of the wetland delineation and for vernal pool plants. Based on the literature review, presence of drainages on site, seasonal periods of bird nesting and bat maternity roosting activity and limitations of the surveys conducted for this assessment, the following are action items to be addressed prior to ground breaking: Obtain a Section 404 Nationwide Permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, a 401 Water Quality Certification from the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board and a Section 1600 Streambed Alteration Agreement from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife for work in any of the drainages. Obtain authorization from the Sonoma County water Agency for work in Piner Creek. Obtain a tree removal permit from the City of Santa Rosa for the removal of trees as per Chapter 17-24 of the City Code. 3731, 3745, 3737 Airway Drive, Santa Rosa Wildlife Research Associates and Habitat Assessment iv Jane Valerius Environmental Consulting A nesting bird survey should be conducted within one week of the removal of tree nesting habitat, unless removal occurs after August 15 and before March 1, or as identified in the Streambed Alteration Agreement. A bat habitat assessment should be conducted of all trees that are proposed for removal. This habitat assessment can be conducted at any time of the year and it is recommended that it be conducted several months in advance of tree removal. Removal of trees that provide potentially suitable bat roosting habitat must occur under direct

    CITY OF SANTA ROSA EXISTING CONDITIONS REPORT PLANNING AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DECEMBER 2020 CHAPTER 8 INFRASTRUCTURE IN THIS CHAPTER Water Supply Distribution | Stormwater Drainage and Water Quality | Dry Utilities 8.1 INFRASTRUCTURE FINDINGS Water Supply and Distribution 1. The City’s Water Department provides water service to approximately 178,000 people through 53,000 service connections. The Sonoma County Water Agency supplies most of the water, and the City uses groundwater to supplement the water supply. 2. The City has identified projects needed to increase water delivery capacity. Under the guidance of the Water Master Plan Update, the City has completed the 17 highest- priority capital improvement projects and 55 more projects are currently in design, planned, or under construction. Wastewater Collection and Treatment 3. The City maintains 590 miles of sewer system infrastructure. The sewer system discharges into the Laguna Wastewater Treatment Plant, which can treat up to 21.34 million gallons per day before releasing it into the Russian River. 4. The Sanitary Sewer System Master Plan identifies several trunk line replacements or improvements needed to reduce the flow of stormwater and groundwater into the aging sewer system. Stormwater Drainage and Water Quality 5. Santa Rosa uses a combination of closed conduit and open channel systems to convey stormwater runoff from six primary drainage basins to the major creeks that run through the city. The city’s creeks discharge into the Laguna de Santa Rosa, which eventually discharges surface waters into the Russian River. 6. The southern portion of the city has flooded historically along Colgan Creek and Roseland Creek.

  • 2018 Stream Maintenance Program
    2018 Stream Maintenance Program Improving water quality in our streams while providing flood protection for our community This summer the Sonoma County Water Agency (Water Agency) will be working in streams and channels throughout Sonoma County to improve water quality and provide flood protection. As part of our comprehensive Stream Maintenance Program (SMP), we will be removing sediment and garbage and planting trees to create shady riparian canopies. These canopies help cool the water and shade out less desirable species of plants, which can catch debris and reduce the streams’ water-carrying capacity. If necessary, we will remove some non-canopy forming trees such as arroyo willows as well as certain dense shrubs such as non-native and invasive blackberries. Sediment removal activities include planting native trees, shrubs, and some aquatic plants according to a certain pattern to establish canopy while maintaining channel capacity. The Sonoma County Youth Ecology Corps (SCYEC), a workforce training and ecosystem education program aimed at educating youth and young adults in environmental stewardship and restoration, will be working with the SMP this summer. The SCYEC provides youth and young adults paychecks, valuable work experience, environmental education, and the opportunity to contribute to their community through ongoing outdoor experiences. Below is the list of streams the Water Agency will be maintaining this summer. For a more detailed list, map of locations, and information on stream maintenance, visit www.sonomacountywater.org.

  • Chapter 10: Developing Trails and Recreation
    DEVELOPING TRAILS AND RECREATION CONSIDERATIONS Which publicly owned lands within the Laguna should be open to the public, and what considerations should be used to guide our decision making regarding public access questions? These were the basic questions that were put to the stakeholder advisory committee convened to discuss public access in the Laguna. The discussions which occurred around this topic revealed sentiments both for and against public access. Eventually a common understanding, of both the opportunities and the potential pitfalls of opening public lands to unsupervised use emerged through these discussions. Many of the sentiments expressed were based on direct experience with managing existing public spaces within the Laguna; other sentiments were derived by inference to similar situations. What emerged from these considerations were specific recommen- dations grouped into four thematic categories. Trails and interpretive facilities are grouped into the theme Wetlands and wildlands; multi-use transportation and recreation right-of-ways are grouped into the theme Laguna community corridor, recreation along urban and suburban flood control channels are grouped together as Greenways and creekways, and roadside interpretive and scenic sites are organized into the proposal for a signed El camino de los pájaros. At the present time, a cautious approach to public access is being Cautious approach for recommended for most elements of the Wetlands and wildlands theme. Wetlands and wildlands Over time, as experience accumulates, this caution will likely give way to greater certainty. At that time, a reconvening of the advisory committee and a reevaluation of our recommendations might be warranted. On the Aggressive pursuit of other hand, most elements of the Laguna community corridor and the Green- Laguna community corridor, ways and creekways themes should be aggressively pursued.
