  • 4.3 Cultural Resources
    4.3 CULTURAL RESOURCES INTRODUCTION W & S Consultants, (W&S) conducted an archaeological survey of the project site that included an archival record search conducted at the local California Historic Resource Information System (CHRIS) repository at the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) located on the campus of California State University, Fullerton. In July 2010, a field survey of the 1.2-mile proposed project site was conducted. The archaeological survey report can be found in Appendix 4.3. Mitigation measures are recommended which would reduce potential impacts to unknown archeological resources within the project site, potential impacts to paleontological resources, and the discovery of human remains during construction to less than significant. PROJECT BACKGROUND Ethnographic Setting Tataviam The upper Santa Clara Valley region, including the study area, was inhabited during the ethnographic past by an ethnolinguistic group known as the Tataviam.1 Their language represents a member of the Takic branch of the Uto-Aztecan linguistic family.2 In this sense, it was related to other Takic languages in the Los Angeles County region, such as Gabrielino/Fernandeño (Tongva) of the Los Angeles Basin proper, and Kitanemuk of the Antelope Valley. The Tataviam are thought to have inhabited the upper Santa Clara River drainage from about Piru eastwards to just beyond the Vasquez Rocks/Agua Dulce area; southwards as far as Newhall and the crests of the San Gabriel and Santa Susana Mountains; and northwards to include the middle reaches of Piru Creek, the Liebre Mountains, and the southwesternmost fringe of Antelope Valley.3 Their northern boundary most likely ran along the northern foothills of the Liebre Mountains (i.e., the edge of Antelope Valley), and then crossed to the southern slopes of the Sawmill Mountains and Sierra Pelona, extending 1 NEA, and King, Chester.

  • 3.7 Biological Resources
    3.7 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This section identifies major plant and animal resources within the City’s Planning Area and assesses the potential impacts of the proposed General Plan on biological resources with the understanding that certain resources, especially wildlife, are transitory and may potentially be present in a wide variety of areas regardless of previous records of observation. The City’s Planning Area consists of its incorporated boundaries and adopted Sphere of Influence (SOI). The County’s Planning Area consists of unincorporated land within the One Valley One Vision (OVOV) Planning Area boundaries that is located outside the City’s boundaries and the adopted SOI. The City and the County Planning Areas together comprise the OVOV Planning Area. A substantial portion of the area within the City has been developed. Species within the remaining natural areas are adapted to the Mediterranean climate of the region, in that they thrive in the cool, wet winters, and dry, hot summers typical of the area. Within the City boundaries, these areas include the Santa Clara River through the City; and portions of San Francisquito Canyon, Sand Canyon, Whitney Canyon, and Placerita Canyon. The major natural features of the City’s adopted SOI include the Liebre Mountains south of the National Forest boundary, including Cruzan Mesa and portions of Tick Canyon, Mint Canyon, Bouquet Canyon and San Francisquito Canyon; and the San Gabriel Mountains north of the National Forest boundary, including portions of Sand Canyon and

This inventory was conducted as part of hte"Tesoro Del Valle Survey." The California Office of Historic Preservation (OHP) agreed with the findings of the Heumann and Wells survey. Because the OHP concurred, it placed the district in National Register of Historic Places status "2D2" on January 3, 1996 in its history property database. This status reflects that each of the contributing buildings of the ranch has been "determined eligible for listing through a consensus determination,'' although they have not yet been officially listed on the National Register. 1 PART I.

  • Appendix a - Special Designation Overlays - Angeles National Forest
    Appendix A - Special Designation Overlays - Angeles National Forest Monument Existing National Monuments Saint Francis Dam Disaster Places: Santa Clara Canyon 353 Acres Located within San Francisquito Canyon, the Saint Francis Dam Disaster National Memorial and Monument was designated on March 12, 2019 by the John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act, Sec. 1111, which also authorized the establishment of a future Saint Francis Dam Disaster National Memorial. This legislation was signed exactly 91 years after the 200-foot high Saint Francis Dam broke, sweeping away over 400 victims and scouring the floodplain for 52 miles until it emptied into the Pacific Ocean. The purpose of the Monument is to conserve and enhance for the benefit and enjoyment of the public the cultural, archaeological, historical, watershed, educational, and recreational resources and values of the Monument. The Memorial would be the first national memorial managed by the Forest Service and is intended to honor the victims and memorialize the history of the Saint Francis Dam Disaster. San Francisquito Canyon is known for its significant historical associations and values, not only from a Tribal and Native American historical context, but because of the important use of this area during the Spanish, Mexican, and Early American periods. The first anthropologic and ethnographic recording of Native American communities identified the Tataviam as occupying the San Francisquito Canyon. While early physical evidence of their occupation of the area is scarce, early ethnographic and mission records, along with some archaeological evidence indicates their presence and use of the area ranges from 3,500 to 7,500 years ago, and likely even earlier.

  • Deposition and Deformation in the Northern Soledad Basin (Muehlberger 1954)
    DEPOSITION AND DEFORMATION IN THE NOR THE RN SOLEDAD BASIN, LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA Thesis by William Rudolf Muehlberger In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy California Institute of Technology Pasadena, California 1954 -1- ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The writer wishes to express his gratitude to Dr. R. H. Jahns of the California Institute of Technology not only for suggesting this study of the Soledad basin, but also for his guidance and helpful criticism during the progress of the work. Discussions with Drs. J. P. Buwalda, A. E. J. Engel, L. C. Pray, and R. P. Sharp, all of the California Institute of Technology, have aided in clarifying several aspects of the study. The writer also has benefited from discussions of the regional aspects of the problem with several fellow students who have worked in parts of the area shown in Plate 1. Among these men are C. R. Allen, R. B. Campbell, L. A. Carlson, R. 0. Castle, G. P. Eaton, Ross Ellis, M. F. Meier, Carel Otte, Jr., Jesus Ruiz­ Elizondo, and L. T. Silver. The officials of the U. S. Forest Service and the numerous residents of the region aided in the rapid completion of the field studies by allowing the writer free access to their lands. The field work was supported in part by a research grant from the Division of Geological Sciences of the California Institute of Tech­ nology. The use of the equipment and facilities of the Division also was very helpful. The writer is much indebted to his wife, Sally P.

This includes implementing the vision of the first and subsequent City Councils to buffer the Santa Clarita Valley with a greenbelt to help maintain the character and quality of life for residents. During “The Big Picture” Community Strategic Planning process in 2004, several open space goals were reaffirmed. Additionally, in 2007 a number of community members spoke to the Council in support of preserving undeveloped land and asked the Council to, once again, pursue the creation of a mechanism to finance the acquisition and preservation of undeveloped land. In April 2007, the City Council adopted a resolution to initiate the formation of the City of Santa Clarita Open Space Preservation District.
