Permitting Support Task 8.2 Pre-filing Meeting with RWQCB The RWQCB currently requires a pre-filing meeting request 30 days before submitting any application. We will coordinate the setup of the meeting date with the Redwood City Project Manager as well as prepare required materials and attend the meeting. Task 8.3 Prepare Technical Reports and Permit Applications It is anticipated that the Red Morton Park Stormwater Capture project will require a Nationwide Permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, a Water Quality Certification from the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act and the state Porter Cologne Act, and a Streambed Alteration Agreement from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) under Fish and Game Code Section 1602. We will prepare the technical reports and permit applications for Redwood City to submit to the agencies. Redwood City will be the applicant and will also be responsible for submitting the permit fees. This task includes the following subtasks: a. Biological Resources Evaluation. The biological resources evaluation is a general assessment of the biological resources onsite, including special-status habitat and species. It responds to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) checklist questions for biological resources, and provides measures to reduce any potentially significant project impacts. We will use information already developed for the Initial Study to prepare a stand-alone Biological Resources Evaluation document to append to the permit applications. The Biological Resources Evaluation will include the following information: Project Description – an explanation of the project based on information provided by Craftwater and Redwood City, a map of the location, and the project plans. Regulatory Setting – a list of the federal, state and local biology-related regulations that pertain to the project. Environmental Setting – a detailed description of the project site including its location, topography, soils, surrounding lands, and the plant and wildlife habitats that are present. This section will describe both the common and special-status plants and wildlife that are present or have the potential to occur on the site based on habitat type and quality. It will include detail regarding each of the special-status plants and wildlife having a moderate to high potential to occur on the project or in its general vicinity. It will include the results of queries of various databases maintained by the resource agencies and others. Methods – the methods section will include a description of the date and time of the field survey, field survey techniques that were used, the weather during the survey, and any site conditions that may have constrained the biologist’s ability to conduct a complete assessment. The methods section will ATTY/AGR.2022/Amend. No. 2/Craftwater Inc (Red Morton Stormwater Capture) (Page 7 of 10)
