BAYSHORE ROAD <br />REV: 12-09-22 VR <br />Page 46 of 61 <br />Mitigation Monitoring or Reporting Program <br />557 East Bayshore Road Project (SCH #2017072047) <br />Impacts Mitigation Timeframe for <br />Implementation <br />Responsibility <br />for <br />Implementatio <br />n <br />Oversight of <br />Implementatio <br />n <br />protecting them, the general measures that are being <br />implemented to conserve these species as they relate to <br />the project, and the boundaries within which the project <br />may be accomplished. <br /> <br />MM BIO-1.13: Herbaceous Cover Removal. Prior to the <br />start of project activities below the top of bank of the <br />muted tidal drainage ditch, herbaceous vegetation shall <br />be removed from impact areas to eliminate cover for salt <br />marsh harvest mice and salt marsh wandering shrews, <br />thereby discouraging them from occurring in impact <br />areas. Vegetation removal shall start where the habitat <br />intersects the project site in its northeastern corner, and <br />shall proceed gradually northwest towards the open <br />marsh habitat to the west. Vegetation shall not be <br />removed during a high tide or king tide event that <br />temporarily inundates the drainage ditch, as these are the <br />conditions in which salt marsh harvest mice and salt <br />marsh wandering shrews are most likely to be present on <br />the project site. A qualified biologist familiar with the <br />biology of these species shall conduct a pre-construction <br />survey prior to vegetation removal, and shall monitor the <br />vegetation removal process. Vegetation shall be removed <br />using hand-held equipment (e.g., weed-whackers). This <br />will allow any small mammals, including salt marsh <br />project site. Pre- <br />construction surveys <br />shall be completed <br />prior to vegetation <br />removal. All <br />vegetation that is <br />removed shall be <br />hauled off-site the <br />day it is removed, <br />and shall not be left <br />on the site to provide <br />potential cover for <br />small mammal <br />species. <br /> <br />After removal of the <br />vegetation and prior <br />to the start of <br />construction activities <br />below top of bank, <br />the barrier shall be <br />installed.
