4. Plan Overview<br />
Guidelines<br />
• Develop an integrated pest management plan as per current state and<br />
federal standards to record and document practices related to pest<br />
management.<br />
• Monitor Plan implementation requirements and future construction<br />
projects.<br />
Goal OPS-S3<br />
• Pursue adequate staffing to meet public safety, management,<br />
interpretation, facility maintenance, and resource protection needs.<br />
Guidelines<br />
• Evaluate and adjust staffing needs when planning existing and new<br />
programs.<br />
• Explore <strong>the</strong> use of volunteers to complement <strong>the</strong> staff where feasible.<br />
4.2.4.4 Utilities (OPS-U)<br />
Utility infrastructure is generally adequate <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> current facilities and uses.<br />
There are limitations <strong>for</strong> water distribution in some locations as well as lighting<br />
improvements needed in some areas. There is no comprehensive plan<br />
documenting <strong>the</strong> existing, as-built utility network or its adequacy within <strong>the</strong> Plan<br />
Area. Improvements to existing facilities and new projects will require an<br />
understanding of <strong>the</strong> utility needs to determine <strong>the</strong>ir feasibility and cost.<br />
Goal OPS-U1<br />
• Ensure <strong>the</strong> continuance of long-term infrastructure function of <strong>the</strong> Plan<br />
Area.<br />
Guidelines<br />
• Devise a strategic plan <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> installation of a water distribution system in<br />
areas such as Medeiros Use Area in collaboration with <strong>the</strong> <strong>San</strong>ta Nella<br />
County Water District.<br />
• Identify o<strong>the</strong>r utility needs and implement utility improvements<br />
comprehensively to avoid unnecessary site disturbance and expensive<br />
rerouting of utility corridors and junctions over time.<br />
4.2.4.5 Sustainability and Renewable Energy (OPS-RE)<br />
The opportunity exists to incorporate sustainability principles into both existing<br />
and potential future Plan Area facilities, activities, and operations and<br />
maintenance. In addition, Reclamation has identified approximately 1,200 acres<br />
of federal lands in <strong>the</strong> Plan Area as potentially viable <strong>for</strong> renewable energy<br />
development.<br />
Goal OPS-RE1<br />
• To <strong>the</strong> extent feasible, incorporate principles and practices of<br />
sustainability into <strong>the</strong> Plan Area’s facilities, improvements, and<br />
