Project Description Background In November 2017, the City of Vista (City) certified the Supplemental Program Environmental Impact Report (SPEIR) for the 2017 Comprehensive Sewer Master Plan (2017 CSMP) (State Clearinghouse No. 2007091072). The 2017 CSMP identifies a set of recommended projects for inclusion in the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and operations and maintenance (O&M) program. The SPEIR analyzed the potential environmental impacts of these improvements, as contemplated in the CSMP and is incorporated by reference, including the adopted mitigation monitoring and reporting program (MMRP). The O&M Program component of the 2017 CSMP provides a continuation of the City’s existing condition assessment program consistent with the City’s adopted Sanitary Sewer Management Plan (SSMP). The O&M Program also includes the replacement/rehabilitation of the City’s existing pumping stations and the repair, upgrade, and rehabilitation of existing access roads. The City maintains multiple easements to facilitate access to the conveyance and pumping facilities within and outside its service area. These easements range from 10 to 20 feet in width to accommodate maintenance equipment. The SPEIR for the 2017 CSMP analyzed the potential environmental impacts associated with the proposed repair, upgrade, and/or rehabilitation of two existing unpaved access roads as part of the O&M Program. One of the two access roads for future maintenance described in the SPEIR is located along the existing Vista-Carlsbad (VC) Interceptor Reach 1 (VC1 or Project) and traverses the cities of Oceanside and Carlsbad (Figure 3-20 of the SPEIR). The VC1 pipeline is 36-inches in diameter and conveys approximately eight million gallons per day (MGD) on average. The VC1 pipeline is co-owned by the Cities of Vista and Carlsbad and is the major pipeline that conveys each cities’ untreated, wastewater to the Encina Wastewater Authority for treatment and disposal. When VC1 was constructed in 1985, an earthen access road was also constructed to provide maintenance access to sewer manholes, some requiring culverts to convey run-off across the roads. This earthen access road has degraded over time primarily due to erosion from stormwater discharged south from State Route (SR) 78 and contributing drainages to the north. Due to the placement of the existing access road, sedimentation and debris have clogged the culverts, diverting drainages along the access road and resulting in additional erosion. Direct access by way of an improved road is also not provided to a number of manholes within the Project area. Project Goals and Objectives The City’s goal for implementing the proposed Project is to provide all weather access to the manholes

There are no other historical landmarks or interpretive facilities that reflect the ethnic background of the majority of the community. The Bockias-Orr House owned by the Pajaro Valley Historical Association commemorates the Anglo pioneers of Watsonville, while the Agricultural History Museum at the Fairgrounds interprets the farming heritage of the valley. The acquisition of the Rancho San Andrés Castro Adobe was consciously made to preserve and interpret the only remaining building of the Mexican Rancho era of California remaining in the Pajaro Valley and the finest example of a rancho hacienda in the Monterey Bay region.

The coordinates represent the central point of the Marrón-Hayes Adobe, the extant building of the historic district. These coordinates were obtained on July 1, 2014, using Google Earth’s GPS mapping grade unit. The coordinates’ datum is North American Datum 1983. Shelley Hayes Caron Residence The Marrón-Hayes Adobes Historic District is comprised of the extant Marrón- Hayes Adobe (ca. 1854, altered 1947) and the melted Hayes Adobe (constructed by ca. 1875 and added onto thereafter, deteriorating by 1930s, ruins only by 1965, no longer extant). The Marrón-Hayes Adobes Historic District was once part of Silvestre Marrón’s much larger 362-acre ranch (Figure 1). The Marrón- Hayes Adobes Historic District is significant for its association with Silvestre Marrón, one of the first non-Indian settlers of the present-day Oceanside- Carlsbad area, and John Chauncey Hayes, an influential late nineteenth-century and early-twentieth-century lawyer, judge, newspaper man, farmer, real estate developer, and one of the founders of the city of Oceanside. The extant Marrón- Hayes Adobe is significant as a rare and intact example of a late Mexican-style adobe in San Diego County (1850-1906), as well as an excellent example of mid- twentieth-century (1947) Mission Revival architecture, which was a romanticized revival of the Spanish-Mexican architectural roots of San Diego.

  • 240 Years of Ranching Historical Research, Field Surveys, Oral
    240 Years of Ranching Historical Research, Field Surveys, Oral Interviews, Significance Criteria, and Management Recommendations for Ranching Districts and Sites in the San Diego Region By Sue A. Wade Stephen R. Van Wormer Heather Thomson September 8, 2009 i ABSTRACT Livestock have grazed on the grasslands of Southern California from the time the first Europeans arrived in the 1700s until the present day. Within a few years of the establishment of the first Spanish missions, thousands of horses, cattle, and sheep grazed on the coastal mesas, inland valleys, and mountain foothills. After the Mexican revolution in 1821 and the subsequent secularization of the missions, the California rancheros continued raising livestock on the open range. Thus, during the Spanish and Mexican periods, from the 1770s until the 1840s, the base economy of California depended on open-range cattle. During this time, cattle were primarily raised for their hides, some used locally, but the majority brought by the thousands to the coastal ports and traded to Americans for transport to the United States East Coast. After the American takeover of California in 1848 and the discovery of gold in Northern California the following year, the cattle industry continued to prosper by producing meat to feed the thousands of emigrants and gold-rushers in Northern California. Although impacted by droughts in the 1860s, the cattle meat industry continued to be viable until the 1880s. In the late nineteenth century, as a result of the rampant promotion of Southern California by land speculators and several years of exceptional rains that supported dry-land farming, much of the prime agricultural land of Southern California was homesteaded by American farming families.
