Monitoring personnel will review the limits of disturbance prior to initiation of construction activities BIO-14: Determination of Biological or Environmentally Superior Preservation (DBESP). The DBESP addresses riparian-riverine resources. A DBESP report that provides analysis of direct and indirect impacts, avoidance, minimization, and compensatory mitigation, along with the functions and values of the resources being affected as related to MSHCP covered species will be prepared and submitted to RCA, USFWS, and CDFW for review, prior to project approval p. 2-28 NES Resident Engineer, Qualified Biologist Prior to approval BIO-15: Mitigation for Riparian-Riverine Resources. Compensation of permanent impacts on riparian-riverine resources would occur at a minimum 1:1 for riparian and ephemeral drainages. The compensation can be a combination of enhancement, restoration, and/or creation as long as there is no let loss of riparian-riverine resources. This means that at the very least the amount of riparian-riverine removed and the amount being created must be at a 1:1 ratio. The remaining compensation can occur as enhancement and restoration. Compensatory mitigation should be coordinated with CWA 401 and 404 permitting and CDFW 1602 Streambed Alteration Agreement acquisition to ensure efficiencies with the mitigation effort. Details of this compensation will be provided in the DBESP (measure BIO-14). Final mitigation ratios will be determined after consultation with USACE, RWQCB, USFWS, and CDFW.
