Chapter 3 Conservation Strategy enhancement (LAN-1). The functionality of movement corridors across Vasco Road, SR 84, I-580, and I-680 have already been identified as important movement corridors within the study area that should be enhanced (Objective 2.3). Wildlife passage through important corridors could be encouraged by using strategically placed fencing and vegetation, especially along riparian corridors and at roadway underpasses (LAN-2), and by resizing or redesigning culverts (LAN-3). A monitoring program could help identify linkages and determine the effectiveness of enhancement actions (LAN-4). This could be a grant-funded initiative that is conducted across the study area. Known and potential crossings should be identified for San Joaquin kit fox, American badger, and other highly mobile mammalian species (LAN-6). Crossings on either side of roadways should also be identified for focal species, such as California tiger salamander, which may have breeding habitat on both sides of an underpass (LAN-7). To enhance regional connectivity, the coordinated mitigation and independent conservation actions would also need to protect and enhance habitat linkages between the study area and lands outside the study area (Objective 2.2). Land acquisitions related to mitigation or other conservation in eastern Alameda County could be coordinated with conservation programs in neighboring counties (LAN-5). A “Protected Lands” database should be developed to track the total acreage of each natural community and to document occurrences of focal species on current parcels in the study area as well as on newly acquired parcels (Goal 3). The Implementation Committee would identify the entity that would develop, maintain, and administer this database (LAN-8). 3.5.2 Natural Community–Level Goals and Objectives Conservation goals developed at the community level aim to protect and enhance the functionality and ecological value of each natural community. Goals and objectives were developed for four terrestrial communities in the study area: grassland, chaparral and scrub, oak woodland, and conifer woodland. For aquatic communities, the conservation goals mainly strive to improve the overall quality of aquatic and riparian communities as well as the hydrologic and geomorphic processes that support them to maintain functional aquatic communities. Conservation goals and objectives were developed for three aquatic communities: riparian forest and scrub, wetland and pond, and streams. By focusing protection goals and management objectives at the natural community level, the strategy would benefit focal species and native biodiversity would not decrease. Goals and objectives for each natural community are described below. To determine the best use of a conservation site, Conservation Strategy users will have to determine the most immediate conservation need on that site and manage it accordingly. Where conflicts arise between common communities, such as oak woodland and annual grassland, this management decision could East Alameda County Conservation Strategy 3-12 October 2010 ICF 00906.08
Chapter 3 Conservation Strategy favor either type; for instance, restoration of oak woodland would necessarily supplant annual grassland. However, for rare natural communities, where protection opportunities are more limited, achieving the goals and objectives for those communities would likely supersede goals and objectives for common natural communities. To ensure the effective management of natural communities and the management rights of parcels that support them, parcels need to be acquired, either through fee title purchase or by placement of conservation easements. In most cases, protection of additional land will result from mitigation requirements related to project-level impacts. In some cases, land acquisition could be achieved through conservation efforts by local conservation groups or local agencies, or through expansion of the ownership of East Bay Regional Park District or other land managing organizations. In cases where the parcel is not sought for mitigation credit, management could be guaranteed through other written assurances (e.g., management plans with long-term endowments, deed restrictions) with private landowners. 3.5.2.1 Grassland Conservation Goals and Objectives Goal 4 Protect and enhance functional grassland communities (alkali meadow and scald, California annual grassland, non-serpentine native bunchgrass grassland, serpentine bunchgrass grassland, rock outcrop, valley sink scrub) that benefit focal species and promote native biodiversity. Objective 4.1. Field verify the Conservation Strategy land cover map of native grasslands and create a refined map that better accounts for mapped stands. • Conservation Action GRA-1. During project-level analysis of parcels with proposed impacts, applicants will provide information on grassland stand size and species composition to the authorizing land use jurisdiction as part of the permit process for inclusion into the Conservation Strategy database. • Conservation Action GRA-2. During assessment of lands for mitigation, the entity fulfilling mitigation requirements will provide information on grassland stand size and species composition to the authorizing land use jurisdiction for inclusion into the Conservation Strategy database. All stands of grassland composed of >10% native species will be spatially mapped to the extent possible. Objective 4.2. Avoid or minimize direct impacts on grassland communities during project construction and indirect impacts that result from postproject activities by implementing avoidance measures outlined in Tables 3-2 and 3-3.
