17-0919_DUDEK_E7_Agenda ReportTO : FROM : SUBMITTED BY: PREPARED BY: DATE : SUBJECT: City of San Juan Capistrano Agenda Report Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council ~n Siegel, City Manager Joel Rojas, Development Services Directo<JV:: Ayako Rauterkus, Senior Management Analys ~ September 19, 2017 9/19/2017 E7 Consideration of an Amendment No. 2 to a Professional Services Agreement for Biological Monitoring for 2C Ranch-Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration Project (CIP11204) (Dudek) RECOMMENDATION: Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute an Amendment No. 2 to a Professional Services Agreement with Dudek, to increase the not-to-exceed compensation amount for biological monitoring services by $6,861.63, for a new total compensation amount of $101,991.63. DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: On September 27, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) awarded the City a $1,500 ,000 Measure M2 Habitat Restoration grant to fund implementation of the 2C Ranch-Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration Project. The project encompasses roughly 40 acres of upland habitat on the City's 2C Ranch open space (former Shea property) and 14 acres along City-owned portions of Trabuco Creek (Attachment 1 ). The City began implementation of the 2C Ranch-Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration Project in May 2011 . On June 21, 2011, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement (Agreement) with Dudek for biological monitoring services through Decembe r 31, 2015 (Attachment 2). On January 1, 2016 , the Agreement was amended to extend the term until Dudek's services are no longer required (Attachment 3). Under this agreement, Dudek has been providing restoration and wildlife monitoring services to assist the City in achieving the habitat restoration goals established in the Restoration and Enhancement Plan. The original project schedule anticipated that Dudek would City Council Agenda Report September 19, 2017 Page 2 of 3 submit the Final Restoration Completion Report in November 2016. However, due to the historic five-year drought, vegetation growth has not met the performance criteria needed for sign-off. According to the latest monitoring report, the project has met performance crite ria in all metrics except two: 1) only 69% of upland (hillside) vegetation coverage has been achieved , whereas 75% is required; and , 2) there is above-average weed growth due to last winter's heavy rains. It is now anticipated that the project sign off by OCTA and the wildlife agencies will be in spring of 2018. Pending approval of the recommended action, Dudek will keep providing monitoring services and will provide a final report in the upcoming year. FISCAL IMPACT: Approval of Amendment No . 2 would increase the not-to-exceed compensation amount by $6 ,861.63 , for a new total compensation amount of $101 ,991 .63 (Attachment 4). There is sufficient funding in the Cap ital Improvement Project budget to cover th is increase. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) the recommended action is exempt from CEQA per Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that the CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment , the activity is not subject to CEQA. Amending a Personal Services Agreement with Dudek would not be an activity with potential to cause significant effect on the environment , and therefore is exempt from CEQA. PRIOR CITY COUNCIL REVIEW: • On June 21, 2011, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Dudek. • On January 1, 2016, the First Amendment to the PSA was executed to extend the term. COMMISSION/COMMITTEE/BOARD REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATIONS: The contract with Dudek, Inc. did not require any commission/committee/board reviews.

Having performed many projects of a similar nature in the local area, such as base mapping on the Trabuco Creek (Lower Rosan) Wetlands Mitigation Project, our project team is knowledgeable and familiar with the needs and environmental constraints of this project. !r·.J~'.IDE THI~; PPUPOSI\L. Statement of Understanding ........... I Approach ............................................. 2 Key Personnel Experience ............ I 0 Similar Project Experience ............ I 3 Pr·oiect Schedule .............................. 19 j Project Budget .................................. 20 Our team will promote the original biological intent of the project compliance with the requirements of the 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Restoration and Enhancement Plan (Restoration and Enhancement Plan; City of San Juan Capistrano 201 0). Team members can perform the requested biological monitoring tasks in a timely and cost-effective manner, and provide adaptive management strategies through coordination with City of San Juan Capistrano (City) staff and the maintenance contractor to achieve the goals established for the project . We are comm'itted to meeting and exceeding your expectations . Statement of Understanding Dudek understands the City's request for the services of a biological monitor to provide restoration and wildlife monitoring services to assist in achieving the goals established in the Restoration and Enhancement Plan. Goals for the project include improving habitat quality for riparian plants and wildlife within 14 acres of Trabuco Creek and associated transitional zones, improving habitat quality for coastal sage scrub plants and wildlife species within 40 acres of upland hillside, and strengthening the Trabuco Creek Wildlife Linkage through adaptive management and comprehensive data collection. We understand this is a grant-funded effort that is not mitigation, so there is greater flexibility to achieve the project goals . Dudek understands that the City project manager will actively monitor the progress of the site through regular qualitative monitoring and oversight of restoration contractor activities. The Dudek biological monitor will support the City by offering technical biological monitoring, qualitative consultation to provide remedial maintenance recommendations and adaptive management strategies, and as-needed field monitoring services. Bill Ramsey Subject: Biologii:a/ Monitoring for the 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration Projed Dudek staff is well versed in the existing conditions and natural processes that provide challenges and opportunities for restoration at this project site. In 2008, Dudek worked on the initial site assessment for the 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Restoration Project by completing the habitat and wildlife study of the project area and adjacent open space for the City . Dudek authored the restoration plan, and conducted all installation and long-term biological monitoring for the adjacent Arroyo Trabuco Conservation Area (Lower Rosan Ranch) Off-Site Wetland Mitigation Project, which included restoration of 9.72 acres of wetland and transitional habitat that was heavily infested with giant reed (Arundo donax). Successful completion of this project was accepted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) and California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) in the spring of 2008. Proposed principal in charge, Michael Sweesy, RLA, served as the project manager; and proposed project manager, Stuart Fraser, RLA, served as the primary biological monitor for long-term monitoring through completion . Proposed team member, Jayme Timberlake, assisted with biological monitoring. Further enhancing their understanding of restoration processes and challenges that will likely be encountered on this project, Dudek staff have played key roles in several similar efforts throughout Orange and San Diego counties. Mr. Fraser currently serves as the project manager for the Upper Chiquita Reservoir Project (Santa Margarita Water District) and Oso Creek Restoration and Protection Project (City of Mission Viejo). Both projects include a significant restoration component, with the Upper Chiquita Project including over 25-acres of upland restoration. Ms. Timberlake serves as a biological monitor and restoration specialist on both projects. Mr. Fraser and Ms . Timberlake served as biological monitors on the Crossings Golf Course in Carlsbad, California (City of Carlsbad), with Mr. Sweesy serving as the principal in charge. Approach Technical biological monitoring will include botanical data collection and analysis of data, and conducting wildlife surveys to monitor the progress of the restoration and enhancement efforts. Dudek will actively review and analyze the results of field-collected data and surveys throughout the project to maintain up -to-date tracking of project progress. Project performance tracking will alert the project manager if remedial action is necessary, since project success is determined by achieving project success criteria. Dudek will conduct qualitative evaluation of the project .site during all site visits . Qualitative evaluation shall consist of visual assessment of native vegetation establishment and evaluation of maintenance efforts, with recommendations for remedial measures provided to the project manager to ensure project success. An annual qualitative field assessment is proposed for the spring of each monitoring year (in conjunction with annual transect data collection and photo-documentation). Following a comprehensive site visit and evaluation by a biologist specializing in habitat restoration, a site observation report shall be provided summarizing current project status, which includes maintenance recommendations to guide contractor maintenance or implement remedial measures. In accordance with the requested scope. one scheduled annual qualitative restoration field assessment is included annually in the spring, but additional qualitative monitoring and a site observation report format will be provided during as-needed invasive vegetation removal monitoring. The option for a fall qualitative restoration field assessment and contractor coordination is outlined in the attached scope of work. DUDEK 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration 2 Bill Ramsey Subjea: Biological Monitoring for the 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration Project TASK I Task Ia RESTORATION MONITORING Photo-Monitoring and Documentation Photo-monitoring will be conducted annually to provide a record of restoration progress through the entirety of the restoration program. Photo-monitoring stations will be established, and initial monitoring shall be conducted upon project implementation in the spring of 20 II. Photo- monitoring shall continue annually at the conclusion of each monitoring year through Year Five (six times, total). A photo-log form will be developed that includes permanent data specific to each photo station and data specific to the monitoring visit. Permanent photo-log information shall include a general site description and features, photo point location (latitude, longitude), direction (compass bearing), angle, height, and camera lens information in order to replicate conditions between monitoring years. Conditions specific to the monitoring year shall include the photographer's name, date, time, weather conditions (temperature, wind speed, and direction; cloud cover/precipitation), and a brief description of the subject (vegetation, wildlife). Photo-m'onitoring stations shall be selected in locations that provide distant views across large expanses of the project site, or areas susceptible to change (i.e., invasive vegetation stands or active stream channels). In addition to project overview photo-documentation stations, established quantitative data collection stations (coastal sage scrub and riparian transects) shall be utilized as photo-documentation stations, as well. Utilizing transect photos will provide a visual record of quantitative transect data results. During photo-documentation station establishment, a Global Positioning System (GPS) photo camera and sub-meter GPS unit will be used to record exact position and compass bearing of each photo point (latitude and longitude). GPS units with uploaded world data will be utilized in subsequent years to replicate photo position and direction accuracy. Digital GPS world data and compass declination wilt be provided to the City in order to create a photo-location base map. Task I b Botanical (Quantitative) Monitoring Quantitative botanical monitoring sh;!.ll consist of annual data collection in both the riparian and coastal sage scrub restoration areas though the use of established transects. Upon project implementation Oune 20 I I), the permanent vegetation transects shall be established and initial data recorded to establish baseline data. Data will continue to be collected at the conclusion of every monitoring year for the Five Year restoration program (six times, total). Baseline data shall be used to provide cover values for comparison with project progress at each established transect station for the duration of the project. Transect locations will be recorded using a sub-meter GPS unit, with coordinates provided to the City in digital format and plotted on a site plan. The survey methodology developed by Deutschman and Strahm (2009) shall be used for annual data collection in the coastal sage scrub restoration areas (Deutschman and Strahm 2009. Vegetation Community Survey Report 2009; Western Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP) Biological Monitoring Program, April 23, 20 I 0). Ten 50-meter permanent point-intercept transects shall be established and data recorded, including the cover type at ground level and plant species that intercept each transect at 1-meter intervals. Percentage cover of each plant species and cover type will be visually estimated within a 1-meter quadrat at 5- meter intervals, alternating along the transect tape. -------· ----·..----DUDEK 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration 3 Bill Ramsey Subject Biological Monitoring for the 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration Project Quantitative vegetative data collection in the Riparian restoration areas shall consist of data collected along permanent transects placed perpendicular to the riparian corridor, where possible. Sixteen 20-meter, permanent, point-intercept transects shall be established and data recorded, including the cover type at ground level and plant species intercepting the transect at 0 .5-meter intervals. Each vegetation species that intercepts the projected line shall be recorded by presence, total cover, and density by recording presence in each of the three vertical strata layers; herbaceous (0 to I meter), shrub (I to 2 meters) or canopy (>2 meters). The survey methodology of vertical stratification data collection along the established transect wa-s selected as an alternative to the proposed methodology (stacked cube), because it provides an accurate and cost-effective evaluation of riparian canopy development, primarily for wildlife cover, foraging and nesting habitat, including nesting habitat for the federally listed least bell's vireo (Vireo be/Iii pusil/us). Additional data to be collected within the 5-meter-wide "species richness" zone includes all plant species present and the height and girth of all riparian tree species. All field-collected data will be analyzed and compared to performance criteria established for this project and as recommended by Dudek Data and comparison of monitoring results shall be presented to the City in a spreadsheet for analysis and inclusion in the biological monitor's annual report. Photo stations (with logged GPS coordinates) shall be established at the starting point of each transect. Photos shall be taken annually from these fixed locations and included in the photo- monitoring report. Digital world data shall be provided to the City. Tasl< I c Botanical (Qualitative) Monitoring Qualitative monitoring shall be conducted in conjunction with the annual biological monitoring visit in the spring of the monitoring year (six times, total). Qualitative monitoring is conducted to provide an overall characterization of the project area, including progress toward restoration goals and to evaluate the performance of the maintenance contractor. General observations noted include the prevalence of annual weeds and invasive species, condition of planted container plants, germination of applied seed, recruitment of native plant species, condition and function of the irrigation system, and any general maintenance issues. A site observation report will be generated following each qualitative monitoring visit and shall provide a brief summary of project progress, identify specific problem areas and propose potential treatments, and if needed, shall be shown graphically on a map of the project area for management purposes. Site observation reports shall be provided in a format suitable for use in the project manager's annual status report (ASR). Horticultural Monitoring: Dudek will review the general health of the container plants, applied seed mix, and other naturally recruiting native plants in the uplands and riparian restoration areas during each site visit. Plant health observations will focus on soil moisture content, evidence of new growth/environmental stress, and the presence of pests. The general establishment and development of the intended native habitat will be observed and noted . DUDEK 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration 4 Bill Ramsey Subject: Biological Monitoring for the 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration Project Supplemental Irrigation: Dudek will review the use of supplemental irrigation through a developed system or by hand watering. Irrigation issues that attribute to container plant stress/mortality, limited seedling germination, and natural recruitment and site erosion will be evaluated. Recommendations for development of an appropriate irrigation strategy including watering frequency, duration, and expansion of the system will be made for coordination with the maintenance -contractor. Weed/Exotic Vegetation Control: Weed growth will be monitored to ensure that weeds and target invasive species are being adequately controlled. Dudek will note weed and exotic species that need to be removed and make a recommendation on methods of removaVcontrol. Dudek's in-house certified pest control adviser can assist with specific herbicide recommendations; when necessary. Erosion Control: Dudek will note any erosion problems in the coastal sage scrub slopes and the riparian areas, including slope stability and riverbed migration. Recommendations to remedy unnatural or excessive erosion damage through the installation of best management practices (BMPs) will be made. Pest Control: Dudek will monitor for insect infestations and herbivore damage (gophers, ground squirrels, rabbits, etc.) during each monitoring visit. A determination of the relative level of threat to the overall habitat development will be made when pests are detected. Dudek will inform the client of conditions that could limit or reduce the success of habitat development and make a recommendation for treatment or control. Trash and Debris Removal: Dudek will monitor accumulations of trash and debris on site. Areas of trash and debris accumulation will be noted in the monitoring reports for removal by the maintenance contractor. Vandalism and Unauthorized Public Use: Dudek will note and report observation of any on- site damage attributed to public use or vandalism, the presence of off-road vehicles, homeless encampments, or any downed fencing or open gates. If the City requests the use of the biological monitor for invasive habitat removal (Task I d), general qualitative monitoring of restoration progress will be provided in addition to invasive monitoring at no additional cost above the time and rate established for the as-needed invasive biological monitoring. Subtotal Tasks I a-<: .......................................................................................................... $3 1,550 Tasl< I d Additional Botanical (Qualitative) Monitoring (Optional Task) Qualitative restoration monitoring will be conducted annually in the spring of the monitoring year. To assist the City with biological monitoring services that best achieve the goals stated in this project. Dudek recommends increasing the qualitative monitoring visits to biannually in the early stages of the project or if the project fails to achieve the interim success criteria in Years Three through Five. An additional comprehensive qualitative monitoring visit is recommended in the fall of the monitoring year. Increasing the qualitative monitoring visits allows additional oversight of the restoration project progress, allowing the biological monitor to identify potential problems and adapt the management strategy, as needed. A site observation report will be included following each monitoring cycle. DUDEK 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration 5 Bill Ramsey Subject: Biological Monitoring for the 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration Project Additional benefits of a scheduled fall qualitative monitoring visit include: • Coordinating with the restoration contractor for initial and remedial native planting • Evaluating and recommending areas for invasive removal (scheduled for September through February) • Evaluating the riparian areas at the peak of the growing season • Providing accurate site assessment prior to submittal of the biological monitor's annual report The addition of the fall qualitative monitoring visit will be conducted by a biological monitor specializing in habitat restoration. Monitoring can include specific recommendations or a full survey of restoration progress throughout the site (as described in Task lc). Task le Invasive Habitat Removal Monitoring (Optional Task) As described in the project scope of work, invasive vegetation control is anticipated for three times per year outside of the breeding season. Dudek shall provide a biological monitor to be present during all invasive removal cycles, as requested by the City. The biological monitor shall be qualified to identify sensitive native habitat and be able to direct work crews to avoi~ impacts outside of authorized work areas. The biological monitor will provide a brief site observation report following the monitoring cycle describing the removal work. Dudek feels that presence of the biological monitor on site provides the opportunity to evaluate site progress and to identify and report any deficiencies to the City. A general evaluation of site conditions with any identified shortcomings and recommendations for maintenance for the restoration contractor will be included in the site observation report. TASK 2 WILDLIFE MONITORING Related to the wildlife monitoring components addressed in Sections II D and E of the request for proposal (RFP), Dudek will perform the requested services as outlined for upland species (including California gnatcatcher (Polioptila ca/ifornica) and other target species), riparian species (including least Bell's vireo and other target species), and invasive species (including brown-headed cowbirds (Mo/othrus ater) and other target species). Dudek is well equipped to perform all work outlined: • Dudek has a long history with all of the listed species, having maintained federal permits for all of the relevant species since their respective listings (California gnatcatcher, least Bell 's vireo nest monitoring. southwestern willow flycatcher (Empidonax traillii extimus)) and having surveyed for them successfully throughout their range. • Dudek has employed very similar point-count methods for a variety of projects and clients, including the San Diego National Wildlife Refuge Point Count Study for game birds and mammals, Rancho Mission Viejo Land Trust, Orange County Southern Subregion Natural Community Conservation Plan (NCCP). San Diego County Parks (six preserves), various wind projects, and others. • Dudek has conducted similar studies to document wildlife breeding use of habitat restoration areas, including Trump National Golf Course (documented California gnatcatcher breeding pairs increase from 3 to 17 pairs); Carlsbad Golf Course (documented California gnatcatcher breeding pairs increase from 5 to 12 pairs); and others. • Dudek has been instrumental in writing, reviewing, and implementing several habitat conservation plans (HCPs) that required review or design of the latest state-of-the-art survey techniques to accomplish project goals. DUDEK 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration 6 Bill Ramsey Subject Biological Monitoring for the lC Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration Project The stated goal of the upland monitoring component is to assess the distribution, relative abundance, and breeding activity for the focal species and group. For purposes of this study, it is anticipated that the target group would include California gnatcatcher, but would also include Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna), California thrasher (Toxostoma redivivum), house finch (Carpodacus mexicanus), northern mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos), and rufous-crowned sparrow (Aimophila ruficeps) in order to conform to a pilot study for the Rancho Mission Viejo Land Trust that is currently underway. This would not result in additional effort or cost, but would potentially allow for additional comparative analysis to be completed at the end of this monitoring effort. As directed, surveys for upland birds will be conducted by using point-count surveys four times per year (according to season), with each site visited two times per season. Point-count monitoring will record species and relative abundance within a given area, and counts will begin at dawn. Of course, surveys will only be conducted during clement conditions. Because of the small extent of the study area and its configuration, Dudek believes that only four point-count stations would be required. Typically, biologists can count and identify bird species to at least 500 feet. Four stations should provide more than adequate coverage. The stations would be staked in the field and GPS used for repeatability over the duration of the study. The time spent at each point-count station can vary widely, depending on the focus of the effort, but typically they are within the 3-to 15· minute range. For this study, Dudek proposes to perform I 0-minute point counts. The RFP also suggests that there would be a need to adhere to accepted survey protocols; Dudek believes that this is not necessary to satisfy the goals of this effort, and the resulting additional cost to coordinate with the wildlife agencies and submit additional year-end reports would not be warranted. Modified focused surveys will be conducted for California gnatcatcher and Least Bell's vireo during the appropriate season. During point-count surveys, Dudek will document every individual detected, their sex, behavior (e.g., foraging, territorial display, nesting behavior, transit, etc.), their compass direction, and distance. Other factors may be added as determined through discussions with the City after contract award. During the study, a comprehensive list of species detected will be gathered. As directed, surveys for riparian birds will be conducted along systematic survey routes, monitoring all portions of the riparian habitat. The survey route will be marked in the field through temporary flagging and GPS-identified waypoints. This route will be designed to cover both sides of the creek in an "up-and-back" fashion. While surveying the route, biologists will identify all species using the habitat and their relative abundance (i.e., numbers detected during each survey). and quantify the number of nesting pairs of any sensitive riparian bird species (e.g., least Bell's vireo, southwestern willow flycatcher, yellow-breasted chat (/cteria virens), Cooper's hawk (Accipiter cooperii)) using the habitat for nesting. Specific nest searches will not be conducted in order to be cost-effective. Instead, biologists will note any obvious nesting behavior (e.g .. territorial display, transferring nest material, fecal sacs, food) and the approximate location of the activity. Surveys will be conducted at varying times of the morning (i.e., will begin within I hour after sunrise and end by noon) on three separate occasions between March and July, with at least 7 days between visits. Surveys will not be conducted under extreme conditions (i.e., during heavy rain or when the temperature is >95° Fahrenheit (F) or <40°F or with winds >I 0 miles per hour). Taped vocalizations will be minimized since they require additional agency coordination, reporting, and expense. Territories (singing males) and nest locations shall be mapped as detected. DUDEK 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration 7 Bill Ramsey Subject: Biological Monitoring for the 2C Ranch/Trabuco Creek Habitat Restoration Project Based on the supplement to the RFP, it appears that nest fate is no longer required as part: of this scope, but Dudek is able to add this back in if desired. Dudek has successfully performed monthly nest status checks for select species in habitat restoration monitoring situations. While not optimal, one can develop a quantification of the minimum number of eggs laid and chicks fledged. As directed, invasive animal species (e .g., brown-headed cowbirds, bullfrogs (Rana catesbeiana), African clawed frogs (Xenopus /aevis), red fox (Vulpes vulpes), and feral cats) will be monitored throughout the restoration project. Dudek believes that this task can be accomplished cost- effectively while performing the other monitoring studies. All are easily detectable and would not require additional effort: to survey or map . In summary, Dudek will perform 5 years of monitoring for both upland species and riparian species. This will consist of four I 0-minute point-count stations, surveyed four times per year (20 visits) for upland species, and one transect, surveyed three times per year ( 15 visits) for riparian species. Invasive species will be noted during both efforts. To be cost-effective, an example schedule is anticipated to resemble the following: March -Upland/Riparian May-Upland/Riparian july-Riparian/Upland (Year I) September-Upland (Years 2-5) November -Upland Additionally, 3 California gnatcatcher and 4 least Bell's vireo focused visits shall be conducted at project start Uuly 20 I I), with 3 California gnatcatcher and 4-6 least Bell's vireo focused conducted at project completion (Spring 20 16 ). Focused monitoring visits shall be conducted concurrently with scheduled upland and riparian monitoring visits, as practicable. Upland species monitoring shall be conducted in July 20 II to facilitate . the requested California gnatcatcher and least Bell's vireo surveys. Findings of these surveys. shall be provided, for inclusion with the ASR and Year Five Restoration Completion Report.

L: Mike Sweesy and Stuart Fraser-Environmental Compliance and Biological Long-Term Monitoring The Crossings at Carlsbad municipal golf course was a complex, multiyear, multimillion-dollar public agency development project requwmg a diverse range of environmental services from Dudek. Surrounded by the City of Carlsbad's 25,000-acre Habitat Management Plan (HMP) preserve, the Crossings links two core NCCP reserve areas. The challenge was to build this large public project over an environmentally constrained 400-acre site. Blending the course into its sensitive surroundings was a key consideration in the environmental compliance management program that Dudek implemented during construction. Compliance monitoring activities included limit of work fence verification; monitoring vegetation clearing and grubbing; limit of work compliance durlng all construction activities, including mass grading of I .2 million cubic yards of soil; and installation of golf course irrigation, turf, and landscaping; and other golf course facilities. Dudek compiled a complete document record of construction compliance that formed the basis for the final compliance management report. A post-construction impact and mitigation acreage assessment was conducted using sub-meter GPS data. Dudek performed overall environmental compliance management and advised City staff on critical issues related to mitigation conditions contained in the EIR and environmental permits. Dudek monitored all phases of construction including archaeological and paleontological resources (through subconsultants), California gnatcatcher, sensitive habitats, water quality, Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)/erosion control, BMPs, fugitive dust, noise, hazardous materials, and limits of work. Dudek monitored the restoration and revegetation of over 80 acres of coastal sage scrub habitat and the creation and enhancement of approximately 7 acres of federal and state jurisdictional wetlands. Dudek exhibited its capability to identify critical issues and provide resolutions under tight construction timelines. During golf course construction, Dudek monitors discovered one proposed mitigation site overlapped with a pre-existing wetlands mitigation project and supported coastal sage scrub habitat occupied by California gnatcatchers. Dudek advised the City to stop work in the area. located other wetlands mitigation sites supporting riparian vegetation, identified alternate wetland creation sites, designed new wetlands mitigation, and prepared construction drawings. Dudek provided these services on a schedule that allowed the contractor to complete this work on time to preserve the goff course opening date.
