CEQA Review and Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Slender False Brome Integrated Pest Management Plan for the Mid-Peninsula Open Space District

BioMaAS regulatory specialists conducted CEQA review for the slender false brome IPM plan and the associated public education plan for the Mid-Peninsula Open Space District. For this ongoing project BioMaAS is currently in the process of preparing a programmatic MND for this IPM. Tasks included review of all documents associated with the development of an extensive pest management and public outreach program designed to cover district lands in San Mateo County, development of mitigation measures in coordination with the resource agencies, and biological assessments at three District Open Space Preserves and adjacent lands. Environmental resources include wetlands and listed species including San Francisco garter snake, California red-legged frog, marbled murrelet, and migratory birds as protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act.
