If any roosting bats are found under a bridge or within trees in the project <br /> area during pre-construction surveys,the City shall contact the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service <br /> (USFWS) or CDFW to determine how to proceed. Typically, the City shall passively exclude or <br /> evict the roost site for two consecutive days. If there is a period without construction activity <br /> within 100 feet of the bridges during the bat roosting season, an additional bat pre-construction <br /> survey shall be conducted. <br /> Responsible Party: City of Redwood City <br /> Mitigation Measure BIO 4: Install Exclusionary Fencing <br /> Prior to the onset of construction within 100 feet of Redwood Creek,the Contractor shall install <br /> exclusionary fencing around the project area limits to prevent special-status species from entering <br /> the project area. During the installation of wildlife exclusionary fencing,a qualified biologist shall <br /> monitor the area for any potential presence of endangered or special-status species. In the case an <br /> endangered or special-status species is found, the CDFW or USFWS shall be contacted for the <br /> appropriate procedures to follow for the protection of the species. <br /> Responsible Party: City of Redwood City oversight <br /> Mitigation Measure BIO 5: Employee Education and Awareness Training <br /> Prior to construction of the pump station and US 101 undercrossing,a professional biologist shall <br /> conduct an educational program for construction personnel. This program shall include the <br /> following: <br /> • Information on protected species and their habitats that are likely to be found on site; <br /> • Federal and state law requirements pertaining to these species; <br /> • Identification measures to be implemented to conserve the potential species and habitats <br /> within the project area; and <br /> • Distribution of an informative fact sheet to personnel who may enter the project area. <br /> Responsible Party: City of Redwood City <br /> Mitigation Measure BIO 6: Construction Monitoring <br /> A qualified biologist shall be present during vegetation clearing and initial ground disturbance <br /> adjacent to the banks of Redwood Creek and during installation of the cofferdam for the US 101 <br /> undercrossing. If any occupied nests,roosting bats, or endangered species are encountered during <br /> construction,the City shall consult with the CDFW or USFWS to develop appropriate measures to <br /> be taken to avoid disturbance to nesting birds or any endangered species. <br /> Responsible Party: City of Redwood City oversight <br /> Mitigation Measure BIO 7: Site Construction Management Practices <br /> The following site management practices shall be implemented during construction of the pump <br /> station and US 101 undercrossing project: <br /> July 15,2013 A-3 US 101 Pedestrian Undercrossing and <br /> Bair Island Storm Water Pump Station Project <br />
