The completion of this document represents a significant milestone in the course of our City’s natural resources management and would not have been reached without their contributions and patient but passionate dedication to habitat conservation planning. Executive Summary The City of Santa Cruz (City or Applicant) has applied for an incidental take permit (ITP) from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) pursuant to section 10(a)(1)(B) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) to incidentally take the federally endangered Ohlone tiger beetle (Cicindela ohlone); the federally endangered Mount Hermon June beetle (Polyphylla barbata); the federally endangered tidewater goby (Eucyclogobius newberryi); the Pacific lamprey (Lampetra tridentata)(a species not currently listed under the ESA); the federally threatened California red-legged frog (Rana draytonii); and the western pond turtle (Actinemys marmorata), a federal species of concern. Additionally, the City is proposing to include four plant species in the Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP or Plan) and permit because of the benefits provided to such species as a result of the Plan’s conservation strategy and to receive the “No Surprises” regulatory assurances. The four plant species are the federally endangered Ben Lomond spineflower (Chorizanthe pungens var. hartwegiana); the federally endangered Robust spineflower (Chorizanthe robusta var. robusta); the federally threatened Santa Cruz tarplant (Holocarpha macradenia); and the State endangered San Francisco popcornflower (Plagiobothrys diffuses). The Plan refers to the plant and wildlife species proposed for coverage under the plan as Covered Species. Any reference in this Plan to incidental take of Covered Species under the Plan shall, for the purpose of covered plant species, refer to loss or impacts to covered plant species identified in the Permit. The potential taking of the covered wildlife species would occur as a result of activities permitted under the ITP (Covered Activities) and described in the Plan and include operation, maintenance and rehabilitation of the City’s water supply and water system facilities; operation and maintenance of the City’s municipal facilities; and management of City lands. The area covered by the HCP (Plan Area) is located in Santa Cruz County on the Central Coast of California, approximately 70 miles south of San Francisco. The total watershed and water service/urban areas comprising the general Plan Area are approximately 176 square miles and include three geographically distinct areas: the North Coast watersheds, the San Lorenzo River watershed, and the Santa Cruz urban center. The Plan discusses in detail the impacts to Covered Species and their habitats that are expected as a result of Covered Activities. As a result of these anticipated impacts, the Applicant has applied for a section 10(a)(1)(B) incidental take permit and proposes to implement the HCP as described herein, which provides measures for minimizing and mitigating adverse effects on the Covered Species. The Applicant requests that the permit be issued for a period of 30 years. The HCP summarizes the Covered Activities and identifies the responsibilities of the City and the role of the Service under the Plan. The HCP describes measures that will be implemented by the Applicant to minimize and mitigate impacts of the project on the Covered Species and their habitats and to further the conservation of these species. The conservation strategy in the Plan includes measures to mitigate impacts to Covered Species and their habitats that are not avoided - i - through minimization measures. The City commits to fully fund the Plan and the Plan includes descriptions of costs for implementing the Plan and sources of funding to cover those costs. -ii- Table of Contents Executive Summary ........................................................................................................... i Table of Contents ............................................................................................................. iii List of Tables and Figures .............................................................................................. vii List of Appendices ........................................................................................................... vii 1.0 INTRODUCTION................................................................................................. 1 1.1 Purpose and Background ................................................................................. 1 1.2 Plan Area ........................................................................................................... 1 1.3 HCP Planning Process ...................................................................................... 4 1.4 Regulatory Framework .................................................................................... 4 1.4.1 Endangered Species Act ............................................................................... 4 1.4.2 National Environmental Policy Act ............................................................. 5 2.0 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING ......................................................................... 6 2.1 Introduction ....................................................................................................... 6 2.2 Climate ............................................................................................................... 6 2.3 Geology............................................................................................................... 6 2.3.1 North Coast Unit ........................................................................................... 7 2.3.2 San Lorenzo River Watershed Unit ............................................................ 7 2.3.3 City Urban Center Unit ................................................................................ 8 2.4 Soils..................................................................................................................... 9 2.4.1 Ben Lomond-Felton-Lompico Soils ............................................................. 9 2.4.2 Aptos-Los Osos-Fagan Soils ......................................................................... 9 2.4.3 Watsonville-Elkhorn-Pinto Soils ............................................................... 10 2.4.4 Zayante Soils................................................................................................ 10 2.5 Hydrology ........................................................................................................ 10 2.5.1 North Coast Unit ......................................................................................... 10 2.6 Terrestrial Habitat Types............................................................................... 14 2.6.1 North Coast Unit, San Lorenzo River Watershed Unit and Urban City Center Unit ....................................................................................................................... 14 2.7 Covered Species ............................................................................................... 19 2.7.1 Ben Lomond Spineflower (Chorizanthe pungens var. hartwegiana) ...... 19 2.7.2 Robust Spineflower (Chorizanthe robusta var. robusta) .......................... 20 2.7.3 Santa Cruz Tarplant (Holocarpha macradenia) ....................................... 22 2.7.4 San Francisco Popcornflower (Plagiobothrys diffusus) ........................... 24 2.7.5 Ohlone Tiger Beetle (Cicindela ohlone) ..................................................... 25 2.7.6 Mount Hermon June Beetle (Polyphylla barbata) .................................... 27 2.7.7 Tidewater Goby (Eucyclogobius newberryi) ............................................. 29 2.7.8 Pacific Lamprey (Lampetra tridentata) ...................................................... 32 2.7.9 California Red-legged Frog (Rana draytonii) ........................................... 34 2.7.10

  • Plant Guide for California Oatgrass
    Plant Guide moist lowland prairies as well as open woodlands. CALIFORNIA Therefore, it is commonly recommended for revegetation, wildlife plantings, and restoration of OATGRASS oak savannas, transitional wetlands, and grasslands, especially in the Pacific Coast states where it is most Danthonia californica common. Bolander Plant Symbol = DACA3 Native bunchgrasses like California oatgrass are valuable for enhancing biodiversity. Healthy stands Contributed by: NRCS Plant Materials Center, can reduce invasion by exotic species yet exhibit a Corvallis, Oregon spatial distribution compatible with forbs (Maslovat 2001). Combined with other native grasses and forbs, California oatgrass improves habitat diversity for feeding, nesting, and hiding by songbirds (Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife 2000), as well as other animals. The grains are eaten by small birds and mammals (Mohlenbrock 1992). Prairies with California oatgrass as a definitive species are also unique refuges for other endemic organisms. For example, the Ohlone tiger beetle (Cicindela ohlone) is an endangered (federally listed) predatory insect known only to five remnant stands of California native grassland in Santa Cruz County (Santa Cruz Public Libraries 2003). These rare grasslands, including the coastal terrace prairies, remain biodiversity “hotspots” and are considered in need of protection (Stromberg et al. 2001). Forage: As a rangeland plant, California oatgrass is well utilized by livestock and certain wildlife. Prior to maturity, the species is rated as good to very good forage for cattle and horses in the Pacific Coast states, but less palatable for sheep and goats. Ratings are lower for eastern, drier portions of its natural range (USDA Forest Service 1988). Others claim it is palatable to all classes of livestock and a mainstay grass for range grazing in places like Humboldt County, California (Cooper 1960).

  • UC Santa Cruz Campus Grasslands Management Guidelines & Protection Prioritization Recommendations
    UC Santa Cruz Campus Grasslands Management Guidelines & Protection Prioritization Recommendations Justin Luong, M.A. [email protected] Advised by: Dr. Karen Holl [email protected] June 25, 2020 Executive Summary UC Santa Cruz has unique grasslands that support high plant diversity and endangered species and are highly valued by campus communities. California’s climate is dynamic and plant communities respond accordingly. As such, grassland managers should seek to adaptively manage meadows depending on annual weather patterns. Managers should also consider which management practices may be most suitable to different grasslands depending on varying cover of different plant lifeforms or sensitive species. Adaptive management prescriptions have been provided to promote both native plant diversity and cover and Ohlone Tiger Beetle habitat suitability, under varying rainfall patterns. UC Santa Cruz should invest more into campus stewardship and create an ecological restoration unit which will further improve campus sustainability goals and decrease natural resource management and mitigation costs for future expansion of the developed campus. Future increased enrollment goals of the University of California Office of the President will require additional student housing and support buildings, which in turn may require compensatory mitigation and protection in areas with sensitive habitat types or listed species. Several areas, especially Marshall Fields, Mima Meadow and Great Meadow, have been indicated as important areas for protection in this plan. This project and document were developed from funding support from the 2019-2020 Chancellor’s Graduate Internship Program at University of California, Santa Cruz. 1 Luong UC Santa Cruz Campus Grassland Management Plan UC Santa Cruz Sustainability, Enrollment and Long-Range Development Goals The University of California is committed to increasing enrollment at all campuses in order to meet rising demands for higher education in California (University of California 2008).

    Ohlone tiger beetle (Cicindela ohlone) 5-Year Review: Summary and Evaluation Photograph by Richard A. Arnold U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Ventura Fish and Wildlife Office Ventura, California November 2009 5-YEAR REVIEW Ohlone tiger beetle (Cicindela ohlone) 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 (or since the most recent 5-year review). 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.
