Butte County is recognized as the SMARA Lead Agency for the mine site. SMARA requires that all surface mining operations "reclaim" mined lands to a condition which allows post-mining land uses upon termination of surface mining activities and, as such, surface mining operations are required to have a Reclamation Plan approved by the Lead Agency. This Reclamation Plan is comprised of five sections and attachments A through C. Section 1.0, the Introduction summarizes the mining operation. Section 2.0, the Environmental Setting, provides a description of the mine operation’s environment. Section 3.0, the Operational Characteristics, describes proposed mining activity, mine methods, and operation of the mine. Section 4.0, the RP Area Reclamation, describes proposed measures that will be implemented to reclaim the RP Area including objectives and schedules. Section 5.0, Conformance with Reclamation Standards, describes how the project will meet reclamation standards as defined in SMARA. Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  2 1.0 Introduction The Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project is a new alluvial mining operation located five miles southwest of the city of Chico in an unincorporated area of Butte County (Figure 1). M&T Ranch ("Applicant") is applying for a Conditional Use Permit ("CUP") and Reclamation Plan ("RP"). Approval of the CUP would allow mining operations to remove an existing stockpile of alluvial aggregates from wet and dry dredging operations in 2001 and 2007 as well as material placed on-site from future dredging. Currently there is approximately 300,000 tons of stockpiled alluvial aggregates. Two future dredge operations have been approved, each will deposit roughly 150,000 tons on site; for a total of 600,000 tons to be removed over the life of the project. The limits of the mining operation subject to the CUP and RP will encompass a total of 31 acres. Mining operations will remove a stockpile of alluvial aggregates that were dredged from the Sacramento River for the purposes of maintaining pumping station inlets located in the channel. Mining and processing activities will occur over a period of approximately 20 years, however this timeline may be extended depending on the intensity of the operation. Following the completion of mining operations, the disturbed areas within the RP Area will be revegetated with native grassland species and reclaimed to open space uses. ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ^_ §¨¦5 £¤99 £¤70 £¤32 Project Location £¤45 £¤162 £¤99 £¤70 £¤191 Butte CountyTehama County Glenn CountyColusa County Vina Nord Glenn Chico Biggs Tehama Orland Honcut Gerber Artois Willows Palermo Magalia GridleyDelevan Corning Richvale Proberta Paradise Oroville Princeton Los Molinos Stirling City Hamilton City ±0 63 Miles1 inch = 6 miles Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration ProjectFigure 1 Date: September 10, 2015Counties: ESRIHighways: ESRI Butte PlumasTehama Lake Glenn PlacerColusa Sierra Yuba Nevada Sutter Yolo El Dorado Trinity Lassen Sonoma Lassen !Cities Highways Counties ±0 2,0001,000 Feet1 inch = 2,000 feet Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration ProjectFigure 2 Date: September 10, 2015Aerial: USGS 7.5 Min.

The RP Area address is 3964 Chico River Road, Chico, CA 95928. (See Figures 1 and 2). 2.2 Legal Description The RP Area occupies approximately 31 acres, located generally on the western border of the Rancho De Farwell. See Attachment A for a full legal description of the RP Area. The RP Area is identified by the Butte County Assessor to encompass a portion of one APN, owned by Pacific Realty Associates (See Figure 5 and Table 1 below). Table 1 RP Area Parcel APN TOTAL  ACRES  PROPOSED  ACRES for  PROJECT  OWNER  BUTTE COUNTY  GENERAL PLAN  LAND USE  DESIGNATION  BUTTE COUNTY  ZONING  039‐530‐018 3,542.47 31 Pacific Realty  Associates, LP AG (Agriculture) AG (Agriculture)  2.3 General Plan Land Use Category The RP Area lies within an area of Butte County that is designated as Agricultural "AG" under the adopted Butte County General Plan (see Figure 6). Agriculture is the dominant land use within unincorporated Butte County, accounting for approximately 599,040 acres (60 percent of the county’s area) spread across the county. Agricultural lands include field and row crops, orchards, rice, grazing, dry farming, and timber. The General Plan Land Use Element states that AG Land Use Category is designated to protect, maintain, promote and enhance Butte County’s agriculture uses and resources, a major source of food, employment and income in Butte County. Mining and quarry activities are allowed on lands designated AG, subject to the County's surface mining ordinance.

The purpose of the AG zone is to support, protect, and maintain a viable, long-term agricultural sector in Butte County. Standards for the AG zone maintain the vitality of the agricultural sector by retaining parcel sizes necessary to sustain viable agricultural operations, protecting agricultural practices and activities by minimizing land-use conflicts, and protecting agricultural resources by regulating land uses and development intensities in agricultural areas. Permitted uses include crop cultivation, animal grazing, stock ponds, and agricultural processing. More intensive agricultural activities, such as animal processing, dairies, hog farms, stables, forestry and logging, mining and oil extraction, are permitted with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit. The current zoning for the RP Area is shown in Figure 7. 2.5 Surrounding Land Use The RP Area lies within the Central Valley, along the eastern banks of the Sacramento River. Topography in this area consists of flat expansive areas with several large tributaries of the Sacramento River gathering and joining up with the river. The land surrounding the RP Area is predominately covered by intensive commercial agriculture, wetlands, riparian habitat and valley oak woodland. Land use in the general area surrounding RP Area quarry includes annual crop production, water fowl habitat, scattered residential dwellings, fruit and nut orchards and a wastewater treatment plant. The RP Area lies five miles to the southwest of the city of Chico, which has a population base of approximately 90,000. Land use immediately surrounding the RP Area is predominantly occupied by orchards, and open space with a few scattered residences. Big Chico Creek runs along the western side of the RP Area and empties into the Sacramento River near the southwestern limits of the RP Area. River Road, which runs east to west along this stretch of the roadway identifies the northern limit of the RP Area. Land use to the northeast and east of the RP Area is primarily walnut orchards. ±0 1,000500 Feet1 inch = 1,000 feet Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project ZoningFigure 7Date: September 10, 2015Aerial: USDA 2014Parcels: Butte CountyZoning: Butte County AG-160 Zoning AG-40 ZoningAG-80 Zoning Reclamation Plan Boundary Glenn CountyAssessor Parcels Open Space Open Space Agriculture Agriculture River R o a d Chico River R o a d Agriculture Sa c r a m e n t o R i v e r Big Ch i c o C r e e k ± 0 1,000500 Feet1 inch = 1,000 feet Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Surrounding Land UseFigure 8 Date: September 10, 2015Aerial: USDA 2014 Reclamation Plan Boundary Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  13 2.6 Agricultural Classification The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) classifies the farmland within the RP Area as Prime Farmland (P). Prime farmland, as defined by the USDA, is land that has the best combination of physical and chemical characteristics for producing food, feed, forage, fiber, and oilseed crops and is available for these uses. It could be cultivated land, pastureland, forestland, or other land, but it is not urban or built-up land or water areas. The soil quality, growing season, and moisture supply are those needed for the soil to economically produce sustained high yields of crops when proper management, including water management, and acceptable farming methods are applied. In general, prime farmland has an adequate and dependable supply of moisture from precipitation or irrigation, a favorable temperature and growing season, acceptable acidity or alkalinity, an acceptable salt and sodium content, and few or no rocks. The water supply is dependable and of adequate quality. Prime farmland is permeable to water and air. It is not excessively erodible or saturated with water for long periods, and it either is not frequently flooded during the growing season or is protected from flooding. Slope ranges mainly from 0 to 6 percent. Refer to Figure 9 for the classification of farmland within the RP Area and in the vicinity of the RP Area. The RP Area is located on lands currently under a Williamson Act contract. 2.7 General Physiography The RP Area is located on the northern end of the Central Valley, just east of the Sacramento River. Big Chico Creek wraps around the RP Area boundary on the western side, flowing generally north to south. Topography around the RP Area ranges from gently rolling topography terrain to flat plains. Elevations within the RP Area range from approximately 120 feet above mean sea level (AMSL) to 135 feet AMSL. Along the eastern side of the RP Area a levee that is approximately eight feet in height exists to separate the Sacramento River floodplain from the commercial almond orchards that lie to the east of the levee. If uncontrolled, drainage for the RP Area flows to the south and west toward the Big Chico Creek and the Sacramento River. 2.8 Climate The climate in the vicinity of the RP Area is described as a Mediterranean climate. Temperatures can rise well above 100°F (38°C) in the summer. Winters are fairly mild and wet, with the most rainfall coming in January. July is usually the warmest month, with an average high temperature of 94 F (34°C) and an average low temperature of 61°F (16°C). January is the coolest month, with an average high temperature of 55 F (13 C) and an average low temperature of 35°F (2°C). The average annual rainfall is 27 inches (69 cm). Rainfall patterns vary from year to year, but in general, the rainy season in the region is November through April, where rainfall averages between three and four inches per month. The warmer months (May through September) experience minimal rainfall. Tule fog is often present during the autumn and winter months. ± 0 1,000500 Feet1 inch = 1,000 feet Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Farmland ClassificationFigure 9 Date: Septmber 10, 2015Aerial: USDA 2014Parcels: Butte County Reclamation Plan BoundaryUSDA Prime Farmland Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  15 2.9 Geology The RP Area is located in an area identified by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) as Quaternary alluvium. Deposits of alluvium, mainly poorly sorted sands, gravels and boulders of streams and alluvial fans, and thin discontinuous veneers of colluvium as loose rock, talus sheets and soil, cover the valley floors and lower slopes of the ranges of the Sierra Nevada's. Colluvium sheets commonly accumulate along slopes of more than 10 degrees, and grade down slope into alluvial fan deposits and alluvium. The upper reaches of stream channels contain coarse sands and gravels, with fine sands, silts and clay in the lower portions of streams and along valley floors. 2.10 Surface Water The RP Area is bounded by the Sacramento River and Big Chico Creek on the western side. The Sacramento River is the principal river of Northern California and is also the largest river in California. Beginning in the Klamath Mountains, the river flows south for 445 miles before reaching the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta and San Francisco Bay. The river drains about 27,500 square miles in 19 California counties, mostly within a region bounded by the Coast Ranges and Sierra Nevada known as the Sacramento Valley, but also extending as far as the volcanic plateaus of Northeastern California. Big Chico Creek originates on Colby Mountain, located in Tehama County, California. The creek flows 46 miles west to its confluence with the Sacramento River in Butte County. The creek's elevation ranges from 120 feet above sea level at the Sacramento River to 6,000 feet at Colby Mountain. Drainage at the RP Area will be directed toward several low lying areas located within the RP Area. In general runoff will be directed away from the Sacramento River and contained in low lying areas to percolate into the subsurface or evaporate. See the mine plans included in Attachment C for greater detail on the site drainage. 2.11 Groundwater The RP Area lies within the West Butte Sub-Basin, which covers an area of 284 square miles spread over Butte, Colusa and Glenn counties. The sub-basin is part of the of the Sacramento Valley Groundwater Basin and is bounded on the west and south by the Sacramento River, on the north by Big Chico Creek, on the northeast by the Chico Monocline, and on the east by Butte Creek. Big Chico and Butte Creeks serve as sub- basin boundaries in the near surface. The sub-basin is hydrologically contiguous with the Vina and East Butte Sub-Basins at depth. The Chico Monocline forms a geographic boundary; however, a component of recharge to the sub-basin appears east of the fault structure. Groundwater flow is southwesterly toward the Sacramento River north of the city of Princeton. South of Princeton, groundwater flows away from the Sacramento River to recharge the groundwater system. Annual precipitation within the sub-basin is approximately 18 inches in the valley, increasing to 27 inches towards the foothills.

This type of soil is located on slopes that range from 0 to 1 percent, generally located on bars and flood plains. The soil is stratified, coarse-loamy alluvium derived from igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. This is a moderately well drained soil with a fine sandy loam texture that has anywhere from 0 to 20 percent of the surface covered by medium to well rounded gravel. 2.13 Biological Resources Biological communities within the RP Area were mapped by RBI Inc. in August of 2012; a terrestrial survey was also completed. Communities mapped in the report include: disturbed/ruderal, agriculture and valley oak woodland. The terrestrial survey is located in Attachment B; it describes these communities in detail. ± 0 500250 Feet1 inch = 500 feet Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project SoilsFigure 11 Date: Sept. 2015Aerial: USDA 2014Soils:USDA Reclamation Plan BoundaryGianella fine sandyloam, 0 to 1 percent slopesWater Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  19 3.0 Operational Characteristics 3.1 Owner/Operator/Agent Applicant M & T Ranch 3964 Chico River Road Chico, CA 95928-9633 Name of Mineral Property Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Property and Mineral Rights Ownership Pacific Realty Associates, LP 15350 SW Sequoia Parkway, Suite 300 Portland OR, 97224 Operator M & T Chico Ranch 3964 Chico River Road Chico, CA 95928-9633 (530) 518-9954 Agent EnviroMINE, Inc. 3511 Camino Del Rio South, Suite 403 San Diego, CA 92108 Phone (619) 284-8515, Fax (619) 284-0115 3.2 Operations Data Mineral Commodity Natural and Crushed Alluvial Aggregates Proposed Surface Mining Initiation Date July 2016 Proposed Surface Mining Termination Date Completion of mining is expected by December 31, 2035; reclamation is expected to be complete by December 31, 2037. Reclamation and mining may extend beyond this timeline depending on demand for aggregates; this reclamation plan has no expiration date. Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  20 Estimated Annual Production Annual production at the quarry will range from 20,000 to 50,000 tons, with a maximum of 100,000 tons per year. Production estimates are based on current supply and demand for aggregates in the surrounding area and may fluctuate depending on economic conditions. Total Anticipated Production The total production from the mine will be approximately 600,000 tons. Maximum Anticipated Depth of Quarrying Excavation occurs at elevations ranging from 155 to 130 feet AMSL and proceeds to an average depth of approximately 20 feet below the original grade. The maximum depth of mining will be remain at 130 feet AMSL. Proposed Post-Mining Land Use At the conclusion of mining, the RP Area will be reclaimed to open-space uses. 3.3 Operational Characteristics The RP Area is comprised of the components listed in Table 2 and shown on Figure 12. These areas are described in more detail below. Table 2 RP Area Components Component Acreage  Excavation Area 8.3 Buffer Area 11.4 Operations Area 11.6 Total RP Area 31.3 Excavation Area: The Excavation Area is where the dredging operations placed alluvial aggregates on the site; extraction activities will be conducted in this area. The area will encompass approximately 8.3 acres at final build-out. Currently, the Excavation Area features elevations ranging from approximately 155' AMSL to 135' AMSL. Approximately 600,000 tons of aggregate will be extracted from the Excavation Area over the life of project. Operations Area: The Operations Area is an area for the processing activities, material stockpiling, stormwater management, dewatering, access roads and general site support. The area occupies approximately 11.6 acres, located generally adjacent to and surrounding the Excavation Area. Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  21 Buffer Area: The RP Area will include approximately 11.4 acres of Buffer Area. Buffer Areas are primarily undeveloped lands and are characterized at the site mostly by thick riparian vegetation and by open water. Buffer Areas function to protect the project from land use encroachment, and also to protect nearby land uses from the potentially adverse sights, sounds and other characteristics of mining. Buffer Areas also generally include areas that are within the RP Area but will not be disturbed. 3.4 Extractive Operations The following provides an overview of extractive operations within the RP Area. The RP Area is a location where dredge operations stockpiled alluvial aggregates that were excavated from the Sacramento River has been stockpiled. The extractive process generally includes excavating stockpiled materials, material transport and processing. No topsoil and very limited vegetation exists within the area where extractive activities take place. Each process is described below; see Figure 12 for the location of the processing components within the RP Area. The final land form is shown on Figure 13. The phasing of extraction activities, as it relates to different geographic areas within the RP Area, is described in Section 3.6 and illustrated on Figure 14. Aggregate Extraction and Transport Alluvial aggregates will be extracted with either a hydraulic excavator or a front-end loader and loaded into off-road haul trucks or directly fed into a portable crushing plant and screening plant. On-site haul roads within the RP Area will vary depending on the geographic area that is being mined. As the extraction activities advance in a northerly direction, the portable processing plant may be relocated closer to the active extraction area in order to minimize haul distances from off-road haul units. Material Processing The primary and secondary plants consist of equipment and facilities that crush, screen, wash, sort and temporarily store processed materials prior to distribution off- site. All equipment will be portable so that it can be moved out of the floodplain during times when the site may be inundated from the Sacramento River. These processes use of the following equipment and facilities: • Cone or gyratory crushing units • Series of vibrating screens and rock washing units • Conveyors linking processing facilities with stockpiles • Finished material stockpiles • Access roads • Desiltation water basins Alluvial aggregates are first delivered from the stockpile to the processing plant, where they are screened, crushed and either stockpiled or washed and then stockpiled. Stockpiled finished products are stored at the site and await pickup from customer trucks. An excavator or front-end-loader will be used to load stockpiled material into customer trucks.

The operation will comply with all BCAQMD rules and regulations, including requirements for the control of fugitive dust. These requirements include the use of best available control technology (BACT), which includes, wetting down stockpiles and using water sprays to reduce or eliminate dust emissions. 3.5 Stockpile Management All material stockpiles are considered temporary because these materials will be exported from the site as part of the mining process. Temporary material stockpiles will be approximately 25 feet in height with slopes at the angle of repose. The stockpiles are designed with drainage control to ensure that all stormwater runoff is treated using Best Management Practices (BMPs). All stockpiles will be located within the footprint of either the Extraction Area or the Mining Operations Area. Drainage will be directed inward to eliminate the potential for sediment to leave the RP Area. Stormwater controls will be monitored continuously to ensure that all BMPs are functioning properly. 3.6 Phasing Mining operations will occur in four (4) overlapping phases, with one final phase of reclamation after extraction is complete (see Table 3 below). In general, phasing will progress from south to north to mine the existing stockpile of alluvial aggregates. This phasing pattern may repeat as additional aggregates are deposited within the RP Area from future dredge operations for pump maintenance operations. Final reclamation of the RP Area will be completed during a final project phase. It is anticipated that all phases of mining and final reclamation will be completed in approximately 22 years. Figure 14 shows the locations and details of the mining sequence. The precise location and timing of mining and reclamation is subject to market demand, variations in geologic conditions encountered in the field, future dredging operations, and technological advancements in the mining process.

Site development will include moving equipment onto the site, installing stormwater BMPs, improving the access road and any other items necessary to conduct mining. Once improvements are made to the site, mining and processing activities will be conducted in the 3.8 acre area. In general, mining will progress from south to north toward Phase II. The completion of mining in Phase I will leave slopes along the levee on the eastern side of the RP Area at a maximum of 2:1. Removal of the alluvial aggregate stockpile will create a generally flat area graded down to the approximate elevation that existed prior to the stockpiling of aggregates during dredge operations, which is approximately 135 feet AMSL. Phase II Phase II encompasses approximately two acres and will progress from south to north toward Phase III. Mining and processing activities will occur within Phase II. Processing equipment may be relocated from Phase I into Phase II to reduce the distance traveled from the extraction area to the processing plant. The completion of mining in Phase II will leave slopes along the levee on the eastern side of the RP Area at a maximum of 2:1. Removal of the alluvial aggregate stockpile will create a generally flat area graded down to the approximate elevation that existed prior to the stockpiling of aggregates during dredge operations, which is approximately 135 feet AMSL. Phase III Phase III encompasses approximately 1.2 acres and will progress from south to north toward Phase IV. Mining and processing activities will occur within Phase III. Processing equipment may be relocated from Phase II into Phase III to reduce the distance traveled from the extraction area to the processing plant. The completion of mining in Phase III will leave slopes along the levee on the eastern side of the RP Area at a maximum of 2:1. Removal of the alluvial aggregate stockpile will create a generally flat area graded down to the approximate elevation that existed prior to the stockpiling of aggregates during dredge operations, which is approximately 135 feet AMSL. Phase IV Phase IV is the final phase of extraction and will have a footprint of approximately 1.3 acres. Mining will progress from south to north and extend to the northern limits of the extraction area. Mining and processing activities will occur within Phase IV. Processing equipment may be relocated from Phase III into Phase IV to reduce the distance traveled from the extraction area to the processing plant. The completion of mining in Phase IV will leave slopes along the levee on the eastern side of the RP Area at a maximum of 2:1. Removal of the alluvial aggregate stockpile will create a generally flat area graded down to the approximate elevation that existed prior to stockpiling of aggregates within the RP Area, which is approximately 135 feet AMSL. Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  27 Repeating Phasing Sequence if Needed As gravel builds up near the inlet of the pumping station, it may be periodically removed to allow the pumping station inlet to be fully submerged and function properly. The need for this additional gravel removal will be determined by river geomorphic changes and by what long-term solution is selected for protection of the Sacramento River water supply at M&T Ranch. If needed, a hydraulic dredge will be used to remove approximately 300,000 tons of gravel and stockpile it within the RP Area. Approval from state and local agencies has already been granted for two additional dredgings. The exact timing of the future dredging activities is unknown at this time. If needed, the phasing sequence may be repeated until all aggregates stockpiled from dredge operations are removed from the RP Area. Dredging the river is a temporary maintenance activity to keep the pumping station functioning while a long-term and permanent solution is developed. Final Reclamation Final reclamation of the RP Area will take place after all material extraction activities are complete. Any remaining unreclaimed areas will be reclaimed in this phase. Final reclamation will involve: equipment removal, establishment of remaining levee slopes, ripping compacted areas, finish grading, seed mix distribution, monitoring, maintenance and final RP Area closure. All of these activities together will achieve the goals of the Reclamation Plan and leave the RP Area suitable for post-mining open space uses. 3.7 Mining Waste No permanent stockpiles of mining waste (i.e., overburden and unused rock material) will remain after final reclamation. Temporary overburden stockpiles will be subject to drainage and erosion control BMPs, and runoff from stockpiles will collect at stormwater basins without discharging outside of the RP Area. Domestic refuse will be collected in approved trash bins and removed from the RP Area by the operator. Equipment will be serviced on a daily basis by a mobile service truck. No toxic or hazardous substances will be in use at the RP Area. 3.8 Operational Water Water is required for material washing and dust control within the RP Area. Quarry operations at full build-out will require approximately 3 acre feet per year (AFY) for dust suppression and approximately 3 AFY for aggregate processing. Dust Suppression Water: Water to suppress dust around the processing area and haul roads is supplied water that is pumped out of the Sacramento River by the permanent pumping station, located at the south end of the RP Area. Water is pumped into a water truck and distributed around the site as needed. It is estimated that the water truck will make two passes per day during the dry season. Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  28 Wash Water for Aggregate Processing: Water utilized in the processing of aggregates is supplied from the same pumping station as is the dust suppression water. Water utilized for aggregate processing is cycled through the secondary processing plant where clays and silts become suspended in the water. The sediment-laden water is pumped from the processing plant to a series of sediment ponds where the sediment is allowed to settle out. The total quantity of water that is consumed during the processing of aggregates within the RP Area is approximately 3 AFY. This number assumes that the majority of the water used for material washing will be recirculated back through the plant and roughly 10% of the water that is circulated through the plant is consumed by the process. Water usage depends on the amount of production and the percentage of material that requires washing. Mining and material production volumes will vary year-to-year as market demand fluctuates. 3.9 Stormwater and Erosion Control Drainage within the disturbance footprint will be directed to the south and west and will either percolate into the water table or be allowed to evaporate. Site grading will direct runoff toward a number of low lying areas located within the RP Area, away from the Sacramento River. Final reclamation of the RP Area will result in a large, fairly level area which will not cause or contribute to off-site flooding. Drainage facilities will be designed to have a capacity to handle a 20-year storm event. During mining and reclamation, stormwater at the RP Area will be managed in accordance with the approved Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). During extractive operations, stormwater and erosion control measures may include a range of BMPs:  As necessary, silt fencing or straw wattles will be installed along the RP Area boundary;  Grading of the RP Area to direct runoff into the interior of the RP Area;  As necessary, straw mulch or other BMP’s will be applied to cut slopes;  Revegetation; and  Minimizing disturbance. Following the completion of surface mining operations, long-term and permanent erosion control measures will include:  Final grading to promote positive drainage.  Planting and hydroseeding at the appropriate time of the year to insure revegetation of disturbed areas.  Maintaining vegetation on areas disturbed by mining activities. Disturbed areas will be monitored for evidence of erosion at periods specified in the SWPPP during both operational and post-operational periods. Soil surfaces will be evaluated for action according to the following Qualitative Descriptors of Soil Surface Status: Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  29 Class 1: No soil loss or erosion, topsoil layer intact, well-dispersed accumulation of litter from past year's growth; plus smaller amounts of older litter. NO ACTION NECESSARY Class 2: Soil movement slight and difficult to recognize; small deposits of soil in form of fans or cones at end of small gullies or fills or as accumulations back of plant crowns or behind litter; litter not well dispersed or no accumulation from past year's growth. ACTION: Monitor to see if any further deterioration and if action is required. Class 3: Soil movement or loss more noticeable; topsoil loss evident with some plants on pedestals or in hummocks; rill marks evident; poorly dispersed litter and bare spots not protected by litter. ACTION: Any rills or gullies in excess of 8-square inches in cross sectional area and more than 10-linear feet located on finished slopes shall be arrested using straw mulch and hay bales. Class 4: Soil movement and loss readily recognizable; topsoil remnants with vertical sides and exposed plant roots; roots frequently exposed; litter in relatively small amounts and washed into erosion protected patches. ACTION: Replant and cover with straw mulch and install silt fences. If necessary, regrade and compact with equipment. 3.10 Equipment Maintenance Equipment is maintained in the RP Area by a service vehicle that performs regular maintenance and emergency repairs as needed. Fuel for the off-road equipment is supplied by fuel truck that will periodically fill equipment tanks as needed. No diesel storage tanks above or below ground exist at the site. A Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) plan will guide reporting control and cleanup activities in the event of a spill in the quarry or other operating areas. 4.0 RP Area Reclamation 4.1 Overview Reclamation describes the process of preparing mined lands for alternative post- mining land uses, and removing residual mining hazards. Reclamation occurs after the completion of extractive operations, and generally consists of equipment removal, rough and finish grading, revegetation, and monitoring until reclamation performance standards are met. Figure 16 and the plans in Attachment C provide illustrations of the final reclaimed landform that will exist after mining reclamation are complete. Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  30 The goals of RP Area reclamation are to: 1. Adapt mined areas to open space land uses. 2. Stabilize the soil so that erosion is controlled. 3. Revegetate mined lands to create a habitat allowing for the gradual invasion and establishment of native plant species from the surrounding undisturbed plant communities through natural successional processes. 4. Maximize the recovery of mineral resources in a safe and efficient manner; and 5. Mitigate, by design, potential environmental impacts on the land that might otherwise be created by extraction. 4.2 Final Slope Grading Mining will remove a stockpile of material that is roughly 20' in height and leave a fairly level area that has a final elevation of approximately 135' AMSL. The majority of the level area will be sloped at 1 to 2 percent to promote positive site drainage. Along the eastern limits of the mining operation, slopes from an adjacent levee will be reestablished with a maximum of 2:1 (h:v) slopes. 4.3 Growth Medium Distribution The growth medium used for revegetation will consist of salvaged growth medium and wash fines from the RP Area. The proportions of growth medium and any additions or amendments will be guided by the test plot data described in Section 4.6. As set forth below, growth medium will be distributed over the site as needed based on test plot results. Grading of the RP Area is intended to return the site to a condition that existed prior to stockpiling of alluvial aggregates at the RP Area, while providing for proper drainage of the RP Area. Low areas in the topography will be filled and hummocks and sand mounds will be flattened, providing stable drainage. In general, the area will be graded to direct runoff away from the Sacrament River and Big Chico Creek toward several low-lying areas where water will percolate into the sub-surface or evaporate. In addition to grading the site to contour the topography for drainage purposes, compacted areas of the RP Area will be ripped to a depth of at least six (6) inches to decompact the surface in preparation for revevgetation. Areas where existing vegetation is established and proper drainage exists will not require grading to achieve reclamation. 4.4 Soil Amendment Requirements If testing indicates a deficiency in soil chemistry, amendments may be added to the soil to enhance the fertility of growth medium. All soil amendments will be free of any exotic species to avoid accidental introduction. Soil analysis shall be conducted to ensure that the pH and the essential nutrients, such as Nitrogen (N) Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K), are balanced in the soil and equivalent to approximate surrounding undisturbed soil conditions. Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  31 4.5 Vegetative Cover Analysis Revegetation species utilized to reclaim the RP Area were selected to provide adequate cover for the post-mining land use of open space. Baseline studies were conducted to determine species richness and cover; the full report is included as Attachment B. Revegetation species were selected based on baseline studies and are suitable for the proposed end use of open space and are self-sustaining. The proposed revegetation seed mix in Section 4.10 may be adjusted based on the results of test plots to be installed concurrent with mining operations. 4.6 Test Plots Test plots will be constructed, as extraction continues, to determine the most appropriate seeding and planting procedures to ensure successful implementation of the revegetation plan, and to determine the optimal blend of growth medium and any soil additives and amendments for revegetation success. Each vegetation test plot will be comprised of a 0.1-acre area that is 66-feet wide by 66-feet long and demarcated with stakes. In this area, there will be a representative population of seed proportional to the numbers proposed in Table 4 in Section 4.10. The test plots will be located near the southern limits of Phase I. Test plots will be initiated once there is adequate space available. The area will be corner staked with iron T-posts and labeled as the test plot on all four corners. The test plot locations are shown on Figure 15. Four treatment alternatives will be tested as follows: Option 1 – Standard This option will be identical to that proposed above for the reclamation of disturbed areas of the site. This option will allow the operator to test proposed methods and compare them to other alternatives. Option 2 – Mulch Mulch will be added to the standard treatment, and the treatment will be applied in three applications, as follows:  1st Pass – 500 lbs wood fiber-mulch, 1,000 lbs compost, and seed  2nd Pass – Straw at 2 tons/acre  3rd Pass – 500 lbs wood fiber-mulch, 1,000 lbs compost, tackifier, fertilizer Option 3 – No Compost This alternative will allow the mine operator to gauge the effect of not adding compost to the treatment. This option substitutes additional wood fiber-mulch for the compost in the standard treatment. Test Plot Area ± 0 500250 Feet 1 inch = 500 feet Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Test Plot Area Date: October 13, 2015Aerial: USDA 2014 Reclamation Plan BoundaryTest Plot Area Figure 15 Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  33 Option 4 – Inoculant This option tests the effect of inoculating the quarry soils with mycorrhizal fungus, which assists plant roots with nutrient uptake. The treatment will be similar to the standard treatment, but with 60 lbs/acre of AM-120 mycorrhizal inoculant added. The remainder of the test plots will remain untreated and will serve as a "No- Treatment" control option. The results from the tests will be reported in terms of overall ground cover, and in terms of numbers of individual species, where appropriate. Treatments determined to have positive effects on seed mix propagation will be considered for general implementation on areas of the site that are to be revegetated. Success of these revegetation areas shall be judged based upon the effectiveness of the vegetation for the approved end use and by comparing the quantified measures of vegetative cover, density, and species richness of the reclaimed lands similar to that of the surrounding area. Comparisons will be made by a qualified individual until performance standards have been met. 4.7 RP Area Decompaction All compacted areas that are to be revegetated may be ripped to a depth of at least six (6) inches to facilitate revegetation. Where project operations result in compaction of the soil (roads and pads), scarifying of the soil will be used to eliminate compaction and to establish a suitable root zone in preparation for planting. All soil surfaces that are to be revegetated will be left in as rough a condition as possible. The goal is to create small cracks and crevices for the seeds to lodge and to improve water infiltration. 4.8 Road Reclamation All temporary haul roads not retained for the post-mining land use will be ripped, disked, and seeded when no longer required. The main access road along the western side of the stockpile and the levee road on the eastern side f the RP Area will remain in place following the completion of reclamation to provide the landowner access. Other sections of road may remain after mining if requested by the property owner. 4.9 Temporary Access Issues Existing project roads will be kept active through occasional grading and maintenance. 4.10 Revegetation Species Revegetation of the RP Area will be completed using distribution of a single seed mix composed of native species that are located in the vicinity; the seed mix will be referred to as the rangeland seed mix. Distribution methods such as hydroseeding, broadcast seeding, drill seeding, and imprint seeding may be used for the application of the seed mix. Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  34 Rangeland Seed Mix The rangeland seed mix will provide revegetation cover of the RP Area on all areas of the site that have been disturbed from mining activities. This seed mix will propagate quickly to stabilize the soil. The seed mix is made up of perennial species that are capable of self propagation and long-term establishment without human intervention. The seed mix and distribution rates may be adjusted as needed depending on species availability and the results from the test plots. The rangeland seed mix also will serve as an erosion control seed mix and cover for stockpiles if needed during mining operations. Table 4 Rangeland Seed Mix Common Name Scientific Name Mix California Brome Bromus carinatus 10 Lbs/Acre Blue Wild-Rye Elymus glaucus 12 Lbs/Acre Lana Wooly Pod Vetch Vicia villosa 7 Lbs/Acre Purple Needle Grass Nassella pulchra 3 Lbs/Acre California Poppy Eschscolzia californica 3 Lbs/Acre Deer Grass Muhlenbergia rigens 5 Lbs/Acre Red Fescue Festuca rubra 10 Lbs/Acre Total 50 Lbs/Acre 4.11 Hydroseeding The seed mixes described above will be applied using any combination of hydroseeding, broadcast seeding, imprint seeding, drill seeding or other methods of seed distribution found to be successful in revegetation efforts. If hydroseeding is the selected method of seeding; details on the slurry application are discussed below. The first step is to apply the seed, a small amount of virgin wood-fiber mulch, compost, and organic time-released fertilizer (Biosol® or equivalent):  Seed – Refer to Table 5 for seed mix  Wood-fiber mulch – 100 lbs/acre  Compost – 500 lbs/acre  Fertilizer – Biosol® 7-2-3 at 300 lbs/acre The second step is to immediately cover the first coating with slurry of a greater amount of wood fiber and compost:  Wood-fiber mulch – 400 lbs/acre  Compost-1500 lbs/acre The mulch layer will reduce soil erosion, reduce seed loss to birds and rodents, and add organic material to the growth medium as it breaks down. The organic matter will provide a long-term source of nutrients, increase water-holding capacity, and improve the texture of the soil. The development of an organic duff layer, similar to that Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  35 present underneath undisturbed valley oak woodland adjacent to the RP Area, will increase the amount of organic matter and improve moisture retention. Commercial fertilizers intended for agricultural or ornamental applications are not included in the revegetation strategy because they provide a strong flush of nutrients at concentrations rarely present in nature. The result is often rapid growth of weedy grasses and herbs, which then may out-compete slower-growing chaparral species for sunlight and soil water. Biosol® fertilizer (or a comparable product) is a slow-release fertilizer designed for restoration objectives, and provides a steady supply of major nutrients at relatively low concentrations. If necessary, the hydroseeding slurry and application methods may be adjusted by the revegetation specialist. Fertilizer: Growth medium shall be analyzed to determine the presence of essential elements for growth of the rangeland seed mix. If the soil analysis shows that fertility levels or soil nutrients are inadequate to successfully implement the revegetation of the RP Area, the appropriate fertilizers can be selected to account for these deficiencies. Fertilizers and amendments should be selected and applied to avoid contamination to surface and ground water. 4.12 Planting Times All seeding should be performed and completed between October 15 and December15. Planting should be timed to occur with the first soaking rains of the season because the beneficial temperatures and anticipated rainfall will aid in germination and establishment. 4.13 Weed Management Maintenance of the revegetation areas shall consist of reseeding unsuccessful revegetation efforts, weed eradication to limit and control invasive noxious weeds, and repair of erosion damage. The most likely of these species to occur in the revegetated areas is yellow star-thistle (Centaurea solstitialis). Normal revegetation progress should discourage the spread of yellow star-thistle and eventually displace it. If biological monitors note dense, rapidly spreading, or persistent stands of yellow star-thistle (or other noxious weed species) in revegetation areas, a control strategy will be developed and implemented. Noxious weeds that invade the RP Area and inhibit success of the reclamation effort shall be removed. The first method of controlling weeds at any site is to reduce the area and time that the ground surface is disturbed. The occurrence of weeds within the RP Area shall be monitored by visual inspection. The goal is to prevent weeds from becoming established and depositing seeds in areas to be revegetated at a later date. If inspections reveal that weeds are establishing or have been established on the RP Area, then removal will be initiated. Inspections shall be made biannually in conjunction with revegetation monitoring unless conditions Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  36 warrant more frequent inspections. Eradication measures shall be taken when these species are detected at threshold levels of one plant per less than 100 square feet. Weed removal will be accomplished through manual, mechanical, or chemical methods, depending on the specific circumstances. For example, solitary or limited numbers of tree and tree-like species will be manually removed (chopped), and the stumps will be sprayed with an approved weed killer such as Round-Up. Smaller plants that cover more area may be sprayed, scraped with a tractor, or chopped by hand. Weed removal methods used would be dependent upon the size of the area of infestation and the number of desired revegetation species in proximity or mixed with the weeds. 4.14 Contingency Planting If revegetation efforts are not successful according to the success criteria in Section 4.16 within two years following the initial seeding and planting, the revegetated areas will be reevaluated to determine the necessary measures to improve revegetation success. If necessary, these areas will be revegetated with modified methods. These may include the use of container stock and irrigation or simple reseeding during a wet winter season. Prior to reseeding and/or planting, the revegetation specialist shall evaluate previous revegetation practices and test plot results in an attempt to identify methods to benefit the overall revegetation effort. If after the RP Area is reseeded and/or planted and revegetation efforts still do not yield satisfactory results, additional reseeding or other intervention methods may be required. 4.15 Revegetation Phasing Due to the possibility of additional alluvial aggregates stockpiled being at the RP Area after the initial stockpiled material is removed, revegetation will follow the completion of all mining activities. Final landforms reached during ongoing mining operations shall be revegetated if it is determined that no further aggregates will be stockpiled in that specific area. 4.16 Success Criteria Monitoring revegetation plan success by conducting regular follow-up inspections provides assurance that revegetation shall conform to the stated goals listed in Table 5. It also provides a contingency to address unforeseen problems and evaluate year- to-year variation in natural successional processes. These follow-up visits and field studies will evaluate the progress of revegetation effort so that any necessary remedial measures can be recommended in a timely manner. Hydroseed Areas - Sampling plots will be selected randomly throughout the areas hydroseeded with the rangeland seed mix to determine native species richness and percent cover of each seed mix. The number of plots for the hydroseeded areas will be selected in order to achieve an 80 percent confidence level in the performance results. Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  37 During visits to the RP Area, the revegetation efforts will be examined by evaluating the following: A. The success of stabilizing the soil so that soil erosion is controlled over the short or long term. B. The success of re-establishing favorable soil conditions will be monitored so that open space can become established. C. The success of establishing habitat conditions on the excavated areas which are favorable for the gradual invasion and establishment of the native flora to the RPA Area from the surrounding areas. D. The plants shall also be examined for pests and pest damage to make sure that potentially harmful infestations do not occur. Monitoring of the RP Area will be conducted on an annual basis until performance standards over all areas disturbed from mining operations within the RPA Area are attained. Annual assessment reports and RP Area reviews will assess the practicality and the success of the seed mix and amend the ratios as appropriate based on the progress of revegetation. Redistribution of seed the seed mix may be necessary to meet performance standards.

During the lifetime of the Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project, public access will be controlled by locked gates on the access roads within the RP Area boundaries. In addition, signs will be posted around the perimeter of the RP Area limits adjacent to developed lands. These signs will read “Private Property,” “No Trespassing,” and “Danger: Steep Slopes” as appropriate. All MHSA and Cal OSHA rules, regulations, and standards will be observed to protect both the public and on- site employees.

The verifiable standards were adopted by the State Board of Mining and Geology as regulations to implement these requirements. These regulations are known as the “Reclamation Standards” (PRC Article 9, Sections 3700 et seq.). The following discussion addresses compliance with these standards as outlined in the Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan. 5.1 Financial Assurances (14 CCR § 3702) The project will be subject to a required financial assurance to ensure that reclamation is performed in accordance with the approved reclamation plan. Financial assurances are reviewed annually by the Lead Agency and adjusted as necessary. Financial assurances must be in place prior to commencement of operations. 5.2 Wildlife Habitat (14 CCR § 3703) The RP Area is currently utilized as a stockpile area for alluvial aggregates and vacant land; however, some of the plant communities present within the RPA Area are suitable for wildlife habitat. Valley oak woodlands, ruderal/disturbed, agriculture and sandbar willow thickets occupy much of the RP Area and provide cover, foraging, nesting, and resting opportunities. Species common to these habitats include: House Finch (Carpodacus mexicanus), American Robin (Turdus migratorius), Mourning Dove (Zenaida macroura), European Starling (Sturnus vulgaris), Lesser Goldfinch (Spinus psaltria), Red-Tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis), Black-Headed Grosbeak (Pheucticus melanocephalus), California Towhee (Pipilo crissalis) and American Goldfinch (Carduelis tristis). Rare, threatened or endangered species as listed by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, sections 670.2 - 670.5) or the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, (50 CFR 17.11 and 17.12) or species of special concern as listed by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife will be protected throughout mining and reclamation. At completion of mining, reclamation will establish wildlife habitat that is at least as good as that which existed before mining operations began. 5.3 Backfilling, Regrading, Slope Stability, and Recontouring (§3704) SMARA’s reclamation standards provide that reclaimed fill slopes shall not exceed 2.0H:1.0V except when based on a site-specific engineering and geologic analysis showing that the proposed final slope will have a minimum slope stability factor of safety (“FOS”) that is suitable for the proposed end use. Slopes steeper than 2:1 are not part of the final landform, therefore a site specific slope stability analysis is not included as an aspect of the reclamation plan. However, final cut slopes will have a minimum factor of safety for the proposed end use and conform to the surrounding topography. Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  40 As reclamation progresses, all wash fines stored within the RP Area will be distributed to various areas throughout the RP Area footprint as part of the revegetation process. 5.4 Revegetation (14 CCR § 3705) Revegetation of the RP Area will include revegetating areas disturbed from mining operations with one native seed mix. Distribution methods such as hydroseeding, broadcast seeding, drill seeding, and imprint seeding may be used for the application of the seed mix. Refer to Section 4 for a complete description of revegetation methods utilized along with the seed mix. 5.5 Drainage, Diversion Structures, Waterways, and Erosion Control (14 CCR § 3706) The Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan is designed to control surface runoff to protect surrounding land and water resources in accordance with the federal Clean Water Act and other applicable local, state, and federal requirements. All operations within the RP Area will comply with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit associated with industrial activities. A system of Best Management Practices (BMPs) is required to be employed in accordance with a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) and Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). Drainage and erosion controls apply at all stages of operation and reclamation and will be designed to exceed the 20-year storm event. 5.6 Prime Agricultural Land Reclamation (14 CCR § 3707) The RP Area is located on land classified by the USDA as Prime Farmland. The land has never been used for crop production, and much of the RP Area remains as native vegetation that is undisturbed. Almond orchards are the most prevalent crop on adjacent lands; however, due to the fact that the area to be reclaimed is in the 100- year floodplain, farming almonds is not feasible. The approved end use for this site is not agriculture; therefore, the additional performance standards outlined in SMARA Section 3707 do not apply to reclamation of this site. Refer to Figure 9 for the classification of farmland in the vicinity of the RP Area. 5.7 Other Agricultural Land (14 CCR § 3708) The RP Area is located on land that is classified by the USDA as Prime Farmland; however, the approved end use is not agriculture. The RP Area is located on lands that are currently under a Williamson Contract agreement. This project is compatible with the Williamson Act because it will not permanently remove the land from its principal use which has been open space. The reclamation plan is designed to return the land to similar quality range land that existed prior to stockpiling aggregates within the RP Area. The Williamson Act itself specifies criteria for compatible land uses. These criteria are listed in Government Code Section 51238.1 and are described below: 51238.1. (a) Uses approved on contracted lands shall be consistent with all of the following principles of compatibility: Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project Reclamation Plan  41 (1) The use will not significantly compromise the long-term productive agricultural capability of the subject contracted parcel or parcels or on other contracted lands in agricultural preserves. (2) The use will not significantly displace or impair current or reasonably foreseeable agricultural operations on the subject contracted parcel or parcels or on other contracted lands in agricultural preserves. Uses that significantly displace agricultural operations on the subject contracted parcel or parcels may be deemed compatible if they relate directly to the production of commercial agricultural products on the subject contracted parcel or parcels or neighboring lands, including activities such as harvesting, processing, or shipping. (3) The use will not result in the significant removal of adjacent contracted land from agricultural or open-space use. Since current or potential agricultural productivity within the site or on surrounding lands will not be significantly impacted by the mining and reclamation plan, the project meets the principles of Government Code Section 51238.1. The revegetation plan is designed to return the project area to open space land. The revegetation plan is accompanied with performance standards as well as a monitoring plan to ensure that the quality of the range land is returned to the same that existed prior to stockpiling of aggregates within the RP Area. Thus, based on the allowed uses in the Williamson Act itself, this project will not affect the Williamson Act contract held on the site. 5.8 Building, Structure, and Equipment Removal (14 CCR § 3709) All structures constructed for mining purposes will be removed from the RP Area upon completion of reclamation activities. The pumping station located near the southern limits of the RP Area and the levee on the eastern side will remain in place after reclamation is complete. Any refuse in the reclamation plan limits will be collected in approved trash bins and hauled to the nearest approved landfill for disposal. Equipment and materials will be removed from the RP Area at the completion of mining operations. 5.9 Stream Protection, Including Surface and Groundwater (14 CCR § 3710) The Sacramento River Salmon Gravel Restoration Project will include stormwater protection measures designed to eliminate the potential for erosion and sedimentation discharges off the RP Area. These measures will be compliant with appropriate sections of the federal Clean Water Act, Porter-Cologne Act, and the California Regional Water Quality Control Board. The erosion control methods described in Section 3.9 and the reclamation practices outlined in Section 4.0 identify measures that will control erosion and sedimentation. In addition to these plan measures, the Lead Agency will conduct annual inspections to ensure implementation of these water quality protection measures.

HDR Engineering, Inc. 1 Terrestrial Surveys 1 Introduction This report provides the results of terrestrial surveys—including a vegetation community assessment, giant garter snake (GGS) habitat assessment, valley elderberry longhorn beetle (VELB) habitat assessment, and raptor nest survey—that were conducted by Robertson-Bryan, Inc. (RBI) in support of the M&T Chico Ranch/Llano Seco Rancho Fish Screen Facility Short- Term Protection Project (Project). This report does not include terrestrial resources data from any other sources, with one exception. During a site visit on U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) land within the Project area, USFWS Refuge Manager Kelly Moroney requested that USFWS raptor data be included in the report. Therefore, applicable raptor data obtained from USFWS has been incorporated into the report, as described in Section 3.4, below. Provided below are the methods and results of these surveys. 2 Methods This section provides a description of survey methods for the vegetation community assessment, GGS habitat assessment, VELB habitat assessment, and raptor nest survey. All location information was collected using a Trimble 2005 Geo XT Geographic Positioning System (GPS) unit with submeter accuracy. The Project area is shown in Figure 1 (HDR 2012). 1.1 Vegetation Community Assessment A vegetation community assessment was conducted by a team of two biologists on foot on June 25–28, 2012. Biologists delineated boundaries between vegetation communities within the Project area and collected the following data for each vegetation community. ƒDate and surveyor names ƒTrimble GPS unit polygon identification code and/or map number ƒPhoto number(s), if applicable ƒField-assessed vegetation community type ƒDominant overstory species composition ƒSubdominant or understory species composition ƒWildlife species observed on site Vegetation community boundaries were digitized and overlaid on a map of the Project area. Based on species composition within each field-assessed vegetation community, applicable vegetation community designations were assigned to each area using classifications described in A Manual of California Vegetation, Second Edition (Sawyer, Keeler-Wolf, and Evens 2011). In addition, an equivalent wildlife habitat community was designated for each vegetation community, based on A Guide to Wildlife Habitats of California (Mayer and Laudenslayer 1988). M&T Chico Ranch/Llano Seco Rancho Fish Screen Facility Short-Term Protection Project Robertson-Bryan, Inc. HDR Engineering, Inc. 2 Terrestrial Surveys 1.2 Giant Garter Snake Habitat Assessment An assessment of GGS habitat present in the Project area was conducted on foot by two biologists concurrently with the vegetation community assessments on June 25–28, 2012. The habitat assessment was based on methods described in Draft Recovery Plan for the Giant Garter Snake (USFWS 1999a) and Appendix B, Items Necessary for the Service to Complete Formal Consultation on Projects with Impacts to Giant Garter Snake (USFWS 1997) GGS habitat is defined by USFWS to include “agricultural wetlands and other waterways, such as irrigation and drainage canals, ricelands, marshes, sloughs, ponds, small lakes, low gradient streams, and adjacent uplands. Essential habitat components consist of (1) adequate water during the snake’s active season (early spring through mid-fall) to provide adequate permanent water to maintain dense populations of food organisms; (2) emergent, herbaceous wetlands vegetation, such as cattails (Typha spp.) and bulrushes (Scirpus spp.) for escape and cover during the active season; (3) upland habitat with grassy banks and opening in waterside vegetation for basking; and (4) higher elevation upland habitats for cover and refuge from flood waters during the snake’s inactive winter season. Giant garter snake is absent from larger rivers, and from wetlands with sand, gravel, or rock substrates. Riparian woodlands do not typically provide suitable habitat because of excessive shade, lack of basking sites, and the absence of prey populations” (USFWS 1999a). Biologists noted the presence of potential aquatic and upland habitats that may represent habitat for GGS, both within the Project area and on lands immediately adjacent to the Project area. For each potential habitat present, the following data were collected: ƒDate and surveyor names ƒTrimble GPS unit polygon identification code ƒPhoto number(s), if applicable ƒSite description: x Vegetation community x Habitat types present, substrate/soils, etc. x Topography/elevation x Surrounding land-use/activity x Flood regime or site hydrology ƒEssential GGS habitat components present 1.3 Valley Elderberry Longhorn Beetle Habitat Assessment An assessment of VELB habitat present in the Project area was conducted on foot by two biologists on June 25–28, 2012. The assessment was conducted based on the requirements of the Conservation Guidelines for the Valley Elderberry Longhorn Beetle (USFWS 1999b). VELB habitat is defined by USFWS to include elderberry plants with one or more stems measuring 1.0 inch or greater in diameter at ground level, located within California’s Central M&T Chico Ranch/Llano Seco Rancho Fish Screen Facility Short-Term Protection Project Robertson-Bryan, Inc. HDR Engineering, Inc. 3 Terrestrial Surveys Valley and associated foothills from about the 3,000-foot elevation contour on the east and the watershed of the Central Valley on the west (USFWS 1999b). Biologists surveyed the Project area for VELB habitat and documented the location of each elderberry shrub using a Trimble 2005 Geo XT GPS unit with submeter accuracy. In addition, because USFWS generally requires a 100-foot protective buffer for VELB around a construction area, (USFWS 1999b), a 100-foot buffer around the Project area was also surveyed. For each elderberry shrub identified within 100 feet of the Project area, biologists obtained the following data: ƒDate and surveyor names ƒTrimble GPS unit point identification code ƒPhoto number(s), if applicable ƒWhether shrub is in riparian or upland habitat ƒApproximate height of shrub ƒNumber of live stems measuring 1 inch or greater in diameter at ground level, tallied by diameter size class (•LQFK ”LQFKHV!DQG”LQches, > 5 inches)1 ƒPresence of exit holes Data on number of stems, stem size, and exit holes were collected only when base of shrub was accessible (e.g., not located on an inaccessible slope or obscured by blackberry bramble or poison oak). The location of each elderberry shrub was then digitized and mapped. 1.4 Raptor Nesting Survey Two biologists searched for the presence of nesting raptors within 500 feet of the Project area on June 25–28, 2012. One survey was conducted in the morning (between approximately 6 a.m. and 10 a.m.) and one survey was conducted in the evening (between approximately 6 p.m. and 9 p.m.) in the Project Area on both the east and west side of the Sacramento River. Biologists conducted the survey on foot in areas accessible to the public, or in areas where access had been previously granted by property owners. Other areas were surveyed using binoculars at suitable vantage points. Survey methods included the following: ƒBiologists conducted a reconnaissance of appropriate habitat within the Project area, scanning for the presence of raptors and nests by foot and using binoculars. ƒBiologists systematically walked through appropriate habitat within the Project area carefully monitoring for individual raptors and raptor signs, such as scat, whitewash, feathers, and nesting materials. ƒObservers noted the presence of individuals or sign, and identified the detection to the most specific taxonomic level possible. M&T Chico Ranch/Llano Seco Rancho Fish Screen Facility Short-Term Protection Project Robertson-Bryan, Inc. HDR Engineering, Inc. 4 Terrestrial Surveys Biologists obtained the following data: ƒDate and surveyor names ƒRaptor species observed (including sex and age, where possible) ƒTrimble GPS unit point identification code for any nests identified ƒPhoto number(s), if applicable ƒDescription of nest site (species, nest type, habitat, presence of young within nests, etc.) Each active nest tree was digitized and mapped. 2 Results This section and associated maps and appendices provide the results of surveys conducted by RBI biologist during the June 25–28 surveys. This section does not include terrestrial resources data from any other sources, with one exception. During a site visit on U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) land within the Project area, USFWS Refuge Manager Kelly Moroney requested that USFWS raptor data be included in the report. Therefore, applicable data obtained from USFWS has been incorporated into the report, as described in Section 2.4 below. 2.1 Vegetation Community Assessment A total of 10 vegetation communities were identified in the Project area. These included one grassland community, two shrubland vegetation communities, four woodland/forest vegetation communities, riverine aquatic habitat, disturbed/ruderal vegetation, and agricultural areas. Table 1 provides a list of these vegetation communities and characteristic species, as well as equivalent wildlife habitats. Refer to Figure 2 for the distribution and extent of each vegetation community within the Project area, photographs 1 through 6 for representative photos of vegetation communities in the Project area, and Appendix A for the field data sheets. 2.2 Giant Garter Snake Habitat Assessment No GGS habitat was documented within the Project area. Based on observations of communities and land uses immediately adjacent to the Project area, it was determined that a wetland area outside the Project area, along the western bank of Big Chico Creek near its confluence with the Sacramento River, contains several essential GGS habitat components. This area was not accessed directly, but was viewed with binoculars from the opposite bank of Big Chico Creek. Potential essential habitat components which characterize the area include: ƒAdequate water during the snake’s active season (i.e., within Big Chico Creek); ƒEmergent, herbaceous vegetation, including cattails (Typha spp.) and bulrushes (Scirpus spp.); ƒUpland habitat with grassy banks; and M&T Chico Ranch/Llano Seco Rancho Fish Screen Facility Short-Term Protection Project Robertson-Bryan, Inc. HDR Engineering, Inc. 5 Terrestrial Surveys However, this wetland area is bordered by the Sacramento River, orchards, and riparian woodlands, which do not represent habitat for GGS. As stated previously, riparian woodlands are not considered suitable habitat because of excessive shade, lack of basking sites, and the absence of prey (USFWS 1999a). See photographs 7 and 8 for representative photos of the wetland area outside the Project area representing potential GGS habitat. Field data sheets are included as Appendix B. 2.3 Valley Elderberry Longhorn Beetle Habitat Assessment A total of 372 elderberry shrubs were documented within 100 feet of the Project area, 274 of which are within the Project area boundaries. Three of the 372 documented shrubs located in valley oak woodlands along Big Chico Creek, showed signs of VELB occupation (exit holes). A portion of the Project area on the west side of the Sacramento River is within the Capay Unit of the Sacramento River National Wildlife Refuge. Since its acquisition in 1999, the USFWS has gradually restored portions of the Capay unit with native riparian and grassland species. Of the 372 recorded elderberry shrubs, 300 were located within non-riparian blue elderberry stands planted and maintained by the USFWS. Refer to Figure 3 for the locations of elderberry shrubs within the Project area, photographs 9–14 for representative photos, and Appendix C for field data sheets. 2.4 Raptor Nesting Surveys An active osprey nest was observed approximately 67 feet outside the Project area, on top of a utility pole along River Road (Figure 3, Photographs 15 and 16). Two adult osprey and two nestlings were seen on the nest, and the adults were calling and foraging in Sacramento River throughout the survey period. Biologists tried to locate an osprey nest that was previously documented in the survey area (HDR, Inc., 2007). However, this nest is no longer present in the Project area. Additional raptor species observed foraging or soaring within the Project area included red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis), turkey vulture (Cathartes aura), red-shouldered hawk (Buteo lineatus), and Swainson’s hawk (Buteo swainsoni). However, no nests of these species were identified within 500 feet of the Project area. As noted previously, additional raptor data were obtained from USFWS (Moroney, 2012, pers. comm.). After reviewing this data, it was determined that there are no USFWS-identified nests within Project area or in the vicinity of the Project area as depicted on Project maps (Figure 3). USFWS has documented one osprey occurrence (e.g. observation or fly-over in the vicinity of the Project. This occurrence is shown on Figure 3. Refer Appendix D for field data sheets.
