Design Parameters: The subtect site is located at the northeast corner of Haven Avenue and Trademark Parkway The site is part of The Gateway master plan (see attached) and is developed with two existing professional office buildings. A portion of the parcel to the north is undeveloped. The proposed project would create a new master plan Although The Gateway master plan expired, it is useful for comparison. The Gateway master plan was "intended to encourage the development of a prestigious office park and business environment" and assures that "a cohesive integrated development program can be achieved through the design control of • the site plan, architecture, landscaping and protect implementation " Many of these design controls should be continued for consistency because portions of the master plan have already been implemented The master plan had strong identity and pedestrian orientation wherein buildings were "clustered around plaza areas which are interconnected by walks or arcades:' Further, the master plan emphasized only multi-story bwldings facing Haven Avenue. The master plan called for "sophisticated style" architecture that avoids trendy themes or elements „ The primary architectural elements, as evident in the existing buildings, will be expressed through the use of steel, glass and concrete, in contunction with curtain wall, poured in place and concrete tilt-up construction techrnques " Main building entrances will protect a formal entrance statement through the use of landscape plazas, architectural articulation of building form, and more formalized landscape planting The master plan was approved with a three-story office building in addition to the two existing office buildings, whereas, the proposed project features seven new buildings (four 1-story and three 2-story). To the north is vacant land, and across the street of Winston Avenue is a vacant parcel; to the south of Trademark parkway is vacant land; and to the west across Haven Avenue is an office budding and vacant land The undeveloped portion of the site presently drains from the north to the south. With the exception of the existing street trees along Haven Avenue, there are no other existing trees on the undeveloped portion of the site There are no mature trees on the vacant portion of the subtect site The protect is a single-phase development The protect is to develop four single-story professional office buildings, and three two-story office buildings which will front along Haven Avenue The two existing professional office buildings will have a free standing architectural • enhancement element that will reflect the proposed architectural style of the proposed buildings The square footage of the buildings will range from 4,040 to 9,228 square feet.

Secondary Issues Once all of the maior issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues 1 Provide pedestrian connection from Buildings 2 and 6 to Building 7. 2 All pedestrian paths between the buildings must be of a durable decorative material and submitted to the review committee for review and approval 3. The proposed futuristic bus shelter and shade structure should be redesigned to match the architectural style of the protect Label materials 4.

Rather, these indicator speaes exhibit a strong correlation to habdats oa;upied by DSF A gradient of habitat swtabil~ty ewsts for DSF, composed of varying degrees of troth natural and arttfiaal conditions DSF Recovery Unlts/Proposed Core Reserves Subregional areas encompassing smaller areas known to be inhabited by the DSF or encompassing areas that contain restorable habitat for the DSF have been grouped into three Recovery Umts (RUs) by the Service based on geographic proximdy, similarily of habitat, and potenttal genetic exchange (USFWS • 1997) The sublecl site is located within an area designated as the Ontario RU The Ontario RU histoncelly contained the largest block of the Cotton Dunes, however, most lands m this RU have been converted to agriculture, or developed for commeroial and residential projects (USFWS 1997) The Ontario RU contains several areas that currently support DSF, and additional areas have been proposed for restoration m the DSF Recovery Plan DSF Nell continue to exist in the Ontario RU only wdh land conservation, a cessation of current habitat-degrading land management practices and recreational uses, and/or a restoration or natural reversion of ecologically damaged lands back to an ecological commurnty typical of Delhi sands formations Additional data will be needed on reproduction and mortality rates, dispersal, and habitat variables before further refinement of RU boundaries, development of alternative RU preserve designs, and analyses of population can be made (USFWS 1997) Until such data is obtained, the highest priority will be to protect existing populations of the DSF (USFWS 1997) To achieve downlisting, areas containing occupied and/or restorable habitat and dispersal comdors need to be evaluated relative to the extent of distribution patterns necessary to support secure populations Sites to be protected should be selected based on habitat needs of adults and larvae, and willingness of landowners to partiapate in recovery efforts (USFWS 1997) Several "Core Reserve Areas" have been initially identified by the Service, but to our knowledge, the actual extent of the proposed reserve areas have not been finalized Occupied and/or potenfially restorable habitat m the RUs includes only those areas that, at a mirnmum, contain Delhi Series sods Further, RUs do not inGude residential and cemmeroial development, or areas that have been otherwise permanently altered by human actions (USFWS 1997) Development in the region has been cumulatively reduang the amount of open areas Such conversions have been and will continue to lead to the permanent loss of the amount of land available for DSF When viewed individually, it may be possible for each protect to mitigate potential project-speafic impacts through the implementation of habitat replacement programs and the requirements of the regulatory ~7 • • °"`° Lee 8 Associates Marta 24, 2004 A-24 Pege 4 . processes to which each protect may be subiect (e g , CEQA) Cumulative impacts are expected to be addressed through partiapation and implementation of the Valley Wide Multiple Spedes Habitat Conservation Plan (as initially outlined in the 1995 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Service, other resource agenaes, and local iunsdictions) Additionally, regional and/or subregional DSF habitat conservation plans currently proposed for the region would also be expected to address this issue We understand that Rancho Cucamonga (City) is currently negotiating wdh the Service to develop a mutually acceptable process for implementing portions of the DSF Recovery Plan developed by the Service We further understand that it is the intent of the City to continue to accommodate essential DSF habitat in their long-range development plans Focused DSF Survey Guidelines The Service prepared Presence/Absence Survey Gudelines for the DSF in December 1996 (USFWS 1996) In general, the guidelines maintain that in order to more fully determine the presence or absence of DSF such that the results are acceptable to the Service, a survey follovnng these guidelines must be conducted. The guidelines require that surveys be conducted in all areas containing Delhi sands twice weekly (two days per week) dunng the single annual flight penod from July 15 to September 20. However, at the discretion of the Service, survey guidelines may be modified depending upon individual site circumstances (e g ,highly degraded sites that don't support constituent elements of potential DSF habitat or early seasonal emergence penods) Methodology Literature Search Documentation pertinent to the biological resources in the vianity of the site was reviewed and analyzed Information reviewed included (1) the Federal Register listing package for the federally listed endangered DSF; (2) literature pertaining to habitat requirements of DSF, (3) the California Natural DiversRy Data Base (CNDDB 2003) information regarding sensitive species potentially oa;umng on the protect site in a • computer report format for the "Guasti" USGS 7 5-minute quadrangle map, and (4) review of available reports from the general viandy of the protect site. 2004 HabitatSuitability Evaluation r1 ~J Ecological Saences, Inc biologists conducted areconnaissance-level field survey on the subject site to evaluate potential habitat for DSF on February 10, 2004 Ecological Sciences, Inc biologists have observed numerous DSF in the field since 1995, and have extensive expenence conducting both focused surveys and habitat evaluations for this sensitive taxon Ecological Saences is well versed month the biotic charactenstics of a range of habitats occupied by DSF, as well as other sensitive wildlrfe speaes potentially occumng in the area The site was examined on foot by walking a senes of meandenng transects across the subfect property As mentioned, the pnmary ob/edive of the one-day field visit was to generally evaluate the site's potential to support DSF Dominant plant speaes and other habitat charactenstics present at the site were identified to assess the overall habitat value Existing Site Conditions The site is charactenzed as an abandoned vineyard dominated by invasive plant speaes. Vanous types of debns (concrete, asphalt, gravel, manure, lawn dippings) have been dumped in portions of the ske Landsceped business park signage is also present on property comers The site has been disked between the existing vine rows, and a dense interstitial thatch of non-native vegetation appears to have been present poor to disking No native vegetation communities are present A regularly maintained drainage ditch is loceted in the southwestern portion of the site Vegetative coverege was approximately 40 percent Plates 3a-3b photographicelly illusVate existing site conditions ~? Lee 8 Assoaates March 24, 2004 Page 5 A-25 Vegetation • Ruderal vegetation dominates the subled site Invasive plant speaes recorded dunng the survey effort included cultivated grape (Vitus wndera), filaree (Erodium acutanum), brome grasses (Bromus spp.), Mediterranean grass (Schismus barbatus), pigweed (Amaranthus album), London rocket (Systmbnum mo), Russian thistle (Salsola tragus), mustard (Brassica and/or Hirschfeld~a spp.), Vee of heaven (Ailanthus altisstma), and a few scattered tamansk (Tamanx sp) in the drainage area Landscaping species present on site mcluded gum tree (Eucalyptus sp ), pine (Pious sp ), olive (Olea europea), and sweetgum (Lrquidambarstyraat]ua). Native plant species present on site included fiddleneck, western ragweed (Ambrosia psilostachya), and bur-sage In addition, telegraph weed and a single mule fat (Bacchans sal~cdolia) shrub were present in the dremage area Several of these native plant species are often considered potential 'indicators' of suitable DSF habitat although indicator plant speaes also occur on highly disturbed/degraded properties that do not support potential DSF habitat Moreover, the context in which these native plant speaes occur (e g ,overgrown and highly disturbed situations within a dense coverage of non-native grasses and (orbs) does not constitute a substantive native Delhi plant community Wildlife Reptile speaes observed included western fence lizard (Sceloporus occidentals) Bird speaes observed dunng the survey effort mcluded Amenca aow (Corvus brachyrhynchos), rock dove (Columba Itvia), western meadowlark (Stumel/a neglects), and house sparrow (Passer domesticus) Mammal species directly observed, or of which sign was detected, incuded California ground sgwrrel (Spennophdus beecheyi) Soils Analysis /Soil Conservation Map Revlew A review of sod maps prepared for the area by the U.S Department of Agnculture (1980) indicate that the • subled site is located within an area mapped as Delhi fine sand (Db), Hanford coarse sandy loam (HaC), and Hanford sandy loam (HbA) HaC and HbA sod types are not ordinanly assocated wnfh potential DSF habitat Substrate composition was generally fnable, with a few areas containing gravel and cobbles. Plate 4 dlusVates protect area sods. Surrounding Land Use The subled sde is located in a commeraal area of the City The study area is surrounded by existing development to the north, east and west To the south (south of 4"' Street) is vacant land associated with the old Ontano Motor Speedway site Discussion DSF have relatively narrow habitat requirements that are determined by appropnate plant species and open sand as defining charactenstics (Kingsley 1996) The presence of Delhi sods appears to be the most detenninative factor of whether an area can provide swtable DSF habitat Delhi sands constitute the pnmary component of a complex ecosystem A vanety of microhabitat charectensUcs generelty constitute potential DSF habdat (e g , Delhi sods, vegetation composition, soil chemistry, topography, percent vegetative cover, frequency of non-native plant speaes, exposure to disturbances, etc.) However, rt is widely acknowledged that a gradient of habitat swtabdity exists for DSF, composed of varying degrees of natural and arGfiaal conditions Comprehensive DSF population data is generally lacking and key factors regulating DSF populations have not been fully identified As such, whether this taxon would persist over a long-tens basis m less than ideal conddions is currently unknown While the aforementioned habitat conditions are considered optimaVessenGal to support DSF, DSF sometimes occur in areas not typically considered suitable for this taxon. Although indmdual DSF have ~~ Lee 6 Associates March 24, 2004 Page a A-28 been recorded from sites supporting mostly ruderal, non-native vegetation, most known DSF-occupied • sites contain areas, or are adtacent to areas, of relatively undisturbed exposed patches of viable, sandy sods m association with native plant speces In addition, history of DSF colony sites indicates that previously disturbed (by grading, agriculture, etc) Delhi sands fonnations may revert over a few years (through erosion, aeolian processes, fossonal animal activity, and natural vegetative succession) back to condR~ons capable of supporting DSF populations However, these natural processes are dependent upon a cessation of disturbance-related land uses. The srte is also not located adtacent to an area known to support DSF or potential DSF habitat In addition, there is no apparent connectivity to the subfect site from the nearest known extant DSF population (generally t3 0 miles to the south) due to existing development that has long since fragmented potential DSF habitat m the area Whde variables such as the length, width, and structural charactenst~cs of dispersal comdors have not been fully identified, this species likely has the cepabdRy of dispersing over relatively large distances of seemingly unsuitable habitats under certain Grcumstances. Nonetheless, R would be reasonable to assume based on the highly fragmented nature of habitats in the site viGnity and our current knowledge of the species that the likelihood of DSF dispersing to the study area from any known occupied sties would be considered low Moreover, the subject site would not likely be considered an essential or regionally important property for preservation/restoration due to its geographic location, surrounding commeraal land uses, and overall absence of suRable habitat on or adjacent to the sRe. Despite the fact that existing site conditions do not appear to be particulady supportive of DSF as described, in order to make more defirntive conclusions relative to DSF presence/absence, the Sernce routinely requests that focused DSF surveys be conducted following federal protocol depending upon individual site condtions During the environmental review process, recommendations to pertortn focused DSF surveys are evaluated by reweHnng agenaes on a sRe-by-sde basis. Conclusion Based on results of the February 2004 habRat suitability evaluation, the sub/ect t25-acre sRe does not • likely contain habitat considered sutable to support or sustain an extant DSF population No native plant commurnties or open, sandy areas more commonly assoaated with potential DSF habitat are present in the study area Long-standing surface disturbances can have substantial negative impacts on potential DSF habitat by preventing potentially suitable DSF microhabRat soil condR~ons from developing Disruption of soil integrity provides opportunities for invasive vegetation to dominate, mhibds the growth of native Delhi communities, and results m a higher potential for alteration of sort chemistry in ways detrimental to DSF Absent preventing recumng anthropogenic site disturbances and restoration of ecologically damaged habitat back to a more characteristic Delhi sand community, the establishment of a viable DSF population on the sub/ed sRe would likely be preGuded Accordingly, the occurrence potential for DSF on the sub/ect site would generally be considered low It has been a pleasure conducting this habitat sutability evaluation at the t25-acre pro/ect sRe logted m Rancho Cucamonga If you have any questions regarding results presented m this report, please don't hesitate to call Sincerely, Ecological Sciences, Inc C~ ScottD Cameron Principal Biologist 7 Lea 8 Assodefes Marts 24, 2004 Page f0 C~ A-30 • References California Natural Diversity Data Base (CNDDB) 2003 Computer Reports for the "GuasU' USGS 7 5- minute quadrangle map r1 L__J • Kingsley, Kenneth J 1996 Behavior of the Delhi Sands Flower-Loving Fly (Diptere Mydidae), a Little Known Endangered Speaes Ann Entomol.
