The initial land use proposal concerning this project is to create a 17 'lot rural residential subdivision on 97.2 acres of land. Lot sizes will range from 5.0 tc I'` t i 7.4 acres which will constitute a building density of l dwelling unit per 57 acres. 2. Primary access is curent3,y from Highway 32 via Schott Road to Dor.� Mill Ridge Road. Eventual primary access will be from Highway 32 vara Santos Rodd which 1,8 cur- rently being constructed on a 60' county approvad road easement. The completion date of this access is un- known at this time. Please see figure 5 3. Surface drainage vill generally follow the exioting natural:. pattern. Subd'ivis ioii roads have cuiVerts and vert runoff tU natural channels. The da.�.ches which di � eventual o%tfall of most project generated runtiff is Little Chico Creek. a : 4. Sewage disposal is anticipated to be by conventional {. septic tank and leach field systems, The_v6 are areas or sufficient soil depth on all dots for this purpose e and no inordinate probletAs due to sewage disposal are q U j expected. . Water will 'be' supplied by private w6lls which will be located on each individual lot or from a community water system. There is a stock: 4 watering pond on adjacent property owned by the project sponsor which is filled by n 12" diameter, 7701 deep well which produces approximately 400 GPM. This pond will be tetained by the owner for fire contrc- and other uses as needed. 6. Solid-waste disposal will probably be carried out by individuals of ,one of several solid-waste disposal`com-- panies which operate out of the Chico area. T,he final disposal site :3 located south of Chico on Neai:C Road. i_ 7. Telephone and power lines exist adjacent to thI6 property Along Doe Mill Ridge Road. Extension of these lines will be necessary to serve each individual lot: s i 8 Present plans do 'not include any generallighting for the project other that what individual owners may devel- op. 9. propane or butane bottled gas can be supplied to each lot by either of two companies located in Chico. 10.

"Native vegetation is edapb c and genera%k`V varies from c,A en areas of light brush and starthistle with annual grasses,, ' and othe,: forbs; to chaparral thickets of manzanita, buck- brush and 'seedling ye12,ow pines ,interspersed with some annual. grasses, £orbs, poison oak and occasional digger pines; to �? ateav of dense oak/bay thickets with occasional digger pines r JI and an understory of ligY, ush.and/or grasses.

Cougar and black bear may reside on or seasonally utilize this area. Snake,including kingsnake and rattlesnake as well as lizards anti various other reptiles are resident. Avian life probably includes red-tailed and sparrow hawks, valley and 'mountain quail;, jays and mourning dove, as well as warioua non-resident species. Migratory water•- fowl may occasionally utilize the stock watering pond. The spotted owl,'on the federal unique list, occupies the canyon land habitat in Butte County's major canyons. With, this exception, no rare or endangered species are ex- pected in the area. Development in this area will result in the relocati,on of ;iome resident wildlife into surrounding`Lands. in the evert, the carrying capacity of adjoining land will not support them, some animals may the off or be fordeA to relocate further away: species more tolerant to the activities of man, in t chiding deer, will continue to frequent the area after the advent of construction.

There will be a loss of open space and the building density ti�;i11. be increased. The character of the land • will be 'changed from open space to rural residential,= 'z 2. An increase in the' number of fire incidences should be f anti �jjj,' ted, ab with, any population increase. -In the r event of structural fires , it should be recognized that " majer damage could occur due to the length of response �..; time wot fire control services, 3 The acoustic environment currently consists of open foothill and Woodland noises. There twill: bo,a temporary increase in ambient noise levels during construction periods. As development bc=rs 7 the :exp sting dco Atic environment will gtadudlly'be converted to noises associated witli rural residential I developmbhtt F. Some minor modification of natural drainage character- istics will result from development of impervious sur- faces. Erosion is not anticipated to be a problem ; realizing the prbdected JOW densities and t,, itje slopes. 5.

Lands capable of developing in a similar manner to this project <exist throughout the Little Chico Creek Canyon !, and Doe Mill Ridge area. As wbil tie's and access become- more develop,edlpressure for additional land development in the area will increase. In this event an incremental decrease, in pressure for devej:opinent of, prime aGri,cultural lands to the'west of Chico may be realized. 126 This developmppt will place increased demands on p•oblic services and facie ties' This increase will be offset to some extent by ari increased rate of property taxation. 13 some native vegetation will be destroyed or displaced during eot8tructio . Ornamental species of plants may be introduced to the area for l.aridst:aping purposes. Food' producing varieties of plants may be introduced for home �•. gardens i l4i. Wildlife habitat will be modified with the advent of in.= creased population and the introduction of domestic ani mal' p .. y Winter �. Some im airment Of the migrator r'er Winter range will occur.
