Project Context The Green Visions Plan for 21st Century Southern California is a joint venture by the Lower Los Angeles and San Gabriel Rivers and Mountains Conservancy (RMC), the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy (SMMC), the Baldwin Hills Conservancy (BHC), and the California Coastal Conservancy (CC) to develop a comprehensive habitat conservation, water protection, and recreational opportunities plan for southern California. This report is intended to support and inform region-wide planning efforts from the perspective of watershed health assessment. Southern California faces numerous challenges in water resource management. The natural hydrologic cycle, in which rainwater infi ltrates into the ground, has been replaced by a paved drainage system that quickly carries away most of the water following storm events. In the meanwhile, the increasing discharge of reclaimed wastewater and other surface discharge – including lawn watering overfl ow and streetside car washing – into the regions’ waterways has dramatically altered stream fl ow regimes and hence the nature and quality of urban habitat. The need for watershed planning and restoration is now widely recognized as the preferred approach to dealing with these issues. Protecting uplands, implementing stronger source controls, treating runoff prior to discharge, and greening and increasing the permeability of the urbanized portions of the region are steps that will replenish groundwater supplies and improve the quality of the region’s waterways and aquatic habitat. As the fi rst part of such a strategic implementation plan, this report documents the geographic location and character of hydrologic features and disturbances that have occurred in the plan area. Over time, the various parts of the natural hydrologic system have been severely disrupted with the con- struction of fl ood control systems, concrete channels, reservoirs, dams, debris basins, storm detention basins, and spreading grounds. This report aims to provide a watershed baseline condition assessment that describes the historical and current conditions of the watershed, the human modifi cations that have been made to the hydrologic system, and to what extent hydrologic characteristics have been altered in terms of fl ow regimes, fl ow paths, water quality, and groundwater storage. The hydrologic assets inventory will provide principal information for watershed projects such as prioritization of riparian land acquisition, storm water park sites selection, concrete fl ood control channel removal, dam removal, underground storm drains daylightening, and riparian habitat

    Petition to List the Santa Ana Speckled Dace (Rhinichthys osculus subspecies) as Endangered or Threatened under the Endangered Species Act May 11, 2020 1 Notice of Petition Submitted to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service on May 11, 2020: Aurelia Skipwith, Director U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1849 C Street NW, Room 3331 Washington, DC 20240-0001 [email protected] Carlsbad Fish & Wildlife Office 2177 Salk Avenue, Suite 250 Carlsbad, CA 92008 Petitioner Center for Biological Diversity formally requests that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (“USFWS”) list the Santa Ana speckled dace (Rhinichthys osculus subspecies) as an endangered or threatened Distinct Population Segment under the federal Endangered Species Act (“ESA”), 16 U.S.C. §§1531-1544. Alternatively, Petitioner requests that the USFWS determine that the Santa Ana speckled dace is a valid species, which should be listed as endangered or threatened under the ESA. The Center requests that critical habitat for the Santa Ana speckled dace be designated concurrent with listing. This petition is filed under §553(e) of the Administrative Procedure Act (“APA” - 5 U.S.C. §§ 551-559), §1533(b)(3) of the ESA, and 50 C.F.R. §424.14(b). This petition sets in motion a specific administrative process as defined by §1533(b)(3) and 50 C.F.R. §424.14(b), placing mandatory response requirements on the USFWS. Because the Santa Ana speckled dace is exclusively a fresh water fish, the USFWS has jurisdiction over this petition. The Center for Biological Diversity is a nonprofit environmental organization dedicated to the protection of native species and their habitats.

Thousand Oaks Blvd. Westlake Village, California 91362 Contact: Mr. Charles Cohn (818) 879-4700 Applicant: Big Tujunga Villas, LLC November 5, 2014 PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed Canyon Park Homes Project (Project), previously referred to as Big Tujunga Villas, would develop 242 single-family residences on a vacant 78.04-acre site at 12400 North Big Tujunga Canyon Road in the City of Los Angeles community of Tujunga. The Project would include associated infrastructure including streets and utilities to serve the proposed residences, which would be constructed on individual lots that range in size from ±9,000 square feet to ±19,277 square feet. Additionally, the Project would include three private parks with recreational amenities, to be created within the Project site. The proposed street layout within the Project site would include a bridge to allow internal access across an unnamed dry wash and associated riparian habitat area that crosses the site, as well as a paved route for emergency use only that would allow the proposed development area south of the dry wash to be accessed by emergency vehicles directly from Big Tujunga Canyon Road if needed. A component of the Project is a requested General Plan amendment to re-designate the site’s allowable land use from Minimum Residential to Low Residential and a Zoning change from an agricultural zone A1-1-H, to a residential zone RE9-1-H.

    Santa Ana succker (Catostomus santaanae) 5-Year Review: Summary and Evaluation Santa Ana sucker habitat, Santa Ana River. Photo credit Christine Medak (USFWS). U.S. Fish and Wildliffee Service Carlsbad Fish and Wildlife Office Carlsbad, CA March 10, 2011 2011 5-Year Review for Santa Ana sucker 5-YEAR REVIEW Santa Ana sucker (Catostomus santaanae) 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 (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. 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 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 Act that includes public review and comment.

  • Appendix 3.A Detailed Description of Water Quality Priorities Appendix 3.A  Detailed Description of Water Quality Priorities
    Appendix 3.A Detailed Description of Water Quality Priorities Appendix 3.A Detailed Description of Water Quality Priorities The identification of Water Quality Priorities is an important first step in the EWMP process. The Water Quality Priorities provide the basis for prioritizing implementation and monitoring activities within the EWMP and CIMP and selection and scheduling of BMPs during the RAA. The identification of Water Quality Priorities is required in Section VI.C.5.a of the Permit as part of the development of a EWMP. The Permit defines three categories of WBPCs to support the development of priorities, as shown in Table 1. The Permit establishes a four‐step process that leads to prioritization and sequencing of the water quality issues within each watershed, ultimately leading to an organized list of Water Quality Priorities, as follows: Step 1: Water quality characterization (VI.C.5.a.i, pg. 58) based on available monitoring data, TMDLs, 303(d) lists, stormwater annual reports, etc.; Step 2: Water body‐pollutant classification (VI.C.5.a.ii, pg. 59), to identify water body‐pollutant combinations that fall into three Permit defined categories; Step 3: Source assessment (VI.C.5.a.iii, pg. 59) for the water body‐pollutant combinations in the three categories; and Step 4: Prioritization of the water body‐pollutant combinations (VI.C.5.a.iv, pg. 60). Table 1. Water Body-Pollutant Classification Categories (Permit Section IV.C.5.a.ii) Water Body‐Pollutant Category Combinations (WBPCs) Included 1 WBPCs for which TMDL Water Quality Based Effluent Limits (WQBELs) and/or Receiving Water Limitations Highest Priority (RWLs) are established in Part VI.E and Attachments L and O of the MS4 Permit.

E1907637) Project Sponsor: Department of Public Works, Bureau of Street Services I. INTRODUCTION A. Purpose of an Initial Study The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) was enacted in 1970 for the purpose of providing decision-makers and the public with information regarding environmental effects of proposed projects; identifying means of avoiding environmental damage; and disclosing to the public the reasons behind a project’s approval even if it leads to environmental damage. The Bureau of Engineering Environmental Management Group (BOE/EMG) has determined the proposed project is subject to CEQA and no exemptions apply. Therefore, the preparation of an initial study is required. An initial study is a preliminary analysis conducted by the lead agency, in consultation with other agencies (responsible or trustee agencies, as applicable), to determine whether there is substantial evidence that a project may have a significant effect on the environment. If the initial study concludes that the project, with mitigation, may have a significant effect on the environment, an environmental impact report should be prepared; otherwise the lead agency may adopt a negative declaration or mitigated negative declaration.
