    APPENDIX C Terrestrial and Marine Biological Resource Information Appendix C1 Resource Agency Coordination Appendix C2 Marine Biological Resources Report APPENDIX C1 RESOURCE AGENCY COORDINATION 1 The ICF terrestrial biological team coordinated with relevant resource agencies to discuss 2 sensitive biological resources expected within the terrestrial biological study area (BSA). 3 A summary of agency communications and site visits is provided below. 4 California Department of Fish and Wildlife: On July 30, 2020, ICF held a conference 5 call with Greg O’Connell (Environmental Scientist) and Corianna Flannery (Environmental 6 Scientist) to discuss Project design and potential biological concerns regarding the 7 Eureka Subsea Fiber Optic Cables Project (Project). Mr. O’Connell discussed the 8 importance of considering the western bumble bee. Ms. Flannery discussed the 9 importance of the hard ocean floor substrate and asked how the cable would be secured 10 to the ocean floor to reduce or eliminate scour. The western bumble bee has been 11 evaluated in the Biological Resources section of the main document, and direct and 12 indirect impacts are avoided. The Project Description describes in detail how the cable 13 would be installed on the ocean floor, the importance of the hard bottom substrate, and 14 the need for avoidance. 15 Consultation Outcomes: 16 • The Project was designed to avoid hard bottom substrate, and RTI Infrastructure 17 (RTI) conducted surveys of the ocean floor to ensure that proper routing of the 18 cable would occur. 19 • Ms. Flannery will be copied on all communications with the National Marine 20 Fisheries Service 21 California Department of Fish and Wildlife: On August 7, 2020, ICF held a conference 22 call with Greg O’Connell to discuss a site assessment and survey approach for the 23 western bumble bee.

  • Population Dynamics of Humboldt Bay Wallflower (Erysimum Menziesii) Over Three Decades on the North Spit of Humboldt Bay, California Andrea J
    Population Dynamics of Humboldt Bay wallflower (Erysimum menziesii) over three decades on the North Spit of Humboldt Bay, California Andrea J. Pickart, Annie Eicher, and Laurel Goldsmith U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service October 2018 INTRODUCTION Menzies’ wallflower (Erysimum menziesii) is a monocarpic perennial in the Brassicaceae restricted to early successional coastal dune habitats in Humboldt, Mendocino, and Monterey Counties, California. The current taxonomic treatment (Al-Shehbaz 2012) combines the different geographic populations as a single species, however, recent genetic work supports subspecies status for the Humboldt Bay population (Vorobik 2015), and it has been previously separated as Erysimum menziesii ssp. eurekense (Hickman 1993). Hereafter, we refer to the Humboldt Bay population as Humboldt Bay wallflower, by the genus name Erysimum or the common name “wallflower.” Humboldt Bay wallflower was listed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as an endangered species in 1992, with the recognized threats of invasive species displacement, recreational impacts, and lack of protected habitat (USFWS 1998). The wallflower is found only in the semi-stable foredune zone in the Abronia latifolia – Ambrosia chamissonis herbaceous alliance, also known as dune mat (Sawyer et al. 2005). This low-growing herbaceous community is characterized by relatively low cover (Pickart and Barbour 2007) in which wallflower assumes a patchy distribution. On the North Spit of Humboldt Bay, dune mat has been highly impacted by the spread of invasive species including: European beachgrass (Ammophila arenaria), ice plant (Carpobrotus edulis and C. edulis x C. chilensis), yellow bush lupine (Lupinus arboreus), and the annual grasses ripgut brome (Bromus diandrus) and rattlesnake grass (Briza maxima) (Pickart and Sawyer 1998).

  • Erysimum Menziesii
    http://www.flowershots.net/Brassicaceae.html Erysimum menziesii NEW CROP PROJECT - HORT 5051 BY: CALEB SIMON Taxonomy Erysimum menziesii is federally endangered Brassicaceae family Erysimum menziesii common name is Menzies’ wallflower (Berkeley). In 1992 Erysimum menziesii, was divided into four subspecies 1. E. m. ssp eurekense (Humboldt Bay wallflower) 2. E. m. ssp menziesii (Also known as Menzies’ wallflower) 3. E. m. ssp yadonii (Yadon’s wallflower) 4. E. m. ssp concinnum (curly wallflower) (FWS). This grouping of Erysimum subspecies is collectively known as Menzies’ wallflower. Geographic Distribution North American native. From northern Southern Oregon to central California bioregions include the North Coast and Central Coast Altitude: 0 to 300 meters above sea level (Berkeley). Native Habitat Erysimum is found growing on Coastal fore dunes, headlands and cliffs (Berkeley). On the nearshore dunes and swales Erysimum menziesii grows in association with other low growing plants such as beach sagewort, sand-dune bluegrass, dune goldenrod, beach bursage, coast buckwheat, sand verbena, and beach pea. Non-native plants like iceplant, and yellow lupine grow in the same habitat and prove problematic for Erysimum menziesii establishment (FWS). http://www.fws.gov/arcata/es/plants/menziesWallflower/gallery/large/menziesWallflower7.jpg Taxonomic Description biennial or a short lived perennial 12 inches high and 12 inches wide Flowers blooms February to April (FWS) Yadon’s wallflower blooms from May to June clustered racemes petals are clawed, ranging in color from yellow to orange stigma has 2 lobes (Berkeley). Leaves basal rosettes simple, fleshy, spoon-shaped leaves, cauline leaf margins are entire to lobed (Berkeley) Erysimum menziesii is a ‘semelparous (monocarpic) perennial’; this means that the plant only flowers and produces fruit one time during its life, after that it will die.
