Draft EIS/EIR for the San Luis Reservoir SRA Resource ...

4. Plan Overview
• Provide for storage of collections and documentation and display of select
cultural resources.
• Submit and complete site records to the State Historic Preservation Officer
as necessary to determine eligibility for inclusion in the National Register
of Historic Places, the California Register of Historical Resources, or for
listing and recognition under CSP’s Cultural Resources Division,
including under cultural landscapes.
• The District Superintendent may solicit the evaluation of potential cultural
landscapes within the Plan Area using National Park Service (NPS)
guidance on cultural landscapes as outlined in Protecting Cultural
Landscapes. Prepare Cultural Landscape Reports when deemed
appropriate and necessary.
• Consult with CSP’s cultural resource specialists when planning the
construction of new facilities and uses.
• When new development or improvements to existing facilities are
proposed and may impact cultural resources, ensure compliance with
NEPA and CEQA requirements.
4.2.1.3 Climate (RES-C)
The effects of summer wind and heat are a limiting factor on visitor use of Plan
Area facilities and a safety issue. In winter, fog can limit access to the vicinity or
certain locations within the Plan Area. In the case of windsurfing, wind creates a
prime location for the sport, attracting users from many locales throughout the
state. In contrast, it can also fuel a dangerous wildland fire, increasing its intensity
and duration and the resources needed to control it. Climatic factors need to be
considered in the use and management of visitor facilities and resource protection,
and provided for in the design and planning of future activities.
Goal RES-C1
• Provide documentation and consider climatic data in the design and
planning of visitor facilities and resource management tools and activities.
Monitor potential effects of climate change over time.
Guidelines
• Continue to collaborate with Cal Fire to design vegetative buffers in and
around visitor facilities to provide shade and wind blocks.
• Ensure that any wildland fire prevention planning uses the most accurate
weather data collected onsite or in proximity to current conditions.
• Consider adding wind warning lights where feasible and warranted, and
educate visitors about their use.
• Provide information about how to obtain wind and water level
information.
