substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species,
cause a fist, or
wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate
a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare
or endangered plant or animal or eliminate icportant examples of major periods
of California history or prehistory?
2. Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term benefits to the
detriment of long-term environmental goals? (A short-term impact on the
environment is one which occurs in a relatively .brief, period of time while
long-term impacts will endure into the future.)
3. Does the project have impacts which are individually limited but cumulatively
considerable? (A project may impact on two or more separate resources where
the impact on each resource is relatively small,, but where the effect of the
total of those impacts on the environment is significant.) ,

impacts in case of such :a fault.
3j: The westert3 portio; of the propo. al is "'mated within a 100 yr. flood plain which will expose
the property to potentiali flooding. Hawever,ium to the rine production activity expected to occur
on-site this is not considereJ, an impact to the-xoperty,
4d: Approval sof this request would ireduce •the 316 acre parcels into three (3) smaller parcels
however rice production can 91,51 be feasibly 9M omplished with: these size parcels,
8: The proposal would bring the exla irAg twelve (12) acre parcel into compliance with. existing
zoning sl:andards which is considered a benefit to the agricultural .activities. The proposed lot
