California Red-Legged Frog Sample Clauses

California Red-Legged Frog. The California red-legged frog occurs at the Enrolled Property. Because of their cryptic nature and the difficulty in detecting the actual number of California red-legged frogs in each life stage, the Parties have agreed to set the Baseline for the California red-legged frog at the Enrolled Property as the current area of aquatic pond habitat known to be occupied by the California red-legged frog plus an area of adjacent upland habitat. Although California red- legged frogs could occur beyond this area, for the purposes of this Agreement, the Baseline area of adjacent upland habitat is the area that extends 110 yards (100 meters) from the edge of the average high water xxxx of the pond that is within the Enrolled Property. California red-legged frogs have been found to occupy 7 ponds at the Enrolled Property. In addition to these ponds, California red-legged frogs have been observed within the Enrolled Property at the following locations: at the Animas cattle trough; near Seneca Creek; in San Xxxx Creek and along the stream bank; and in and near Animas Creek. Although California red-legged frogs have been observed at these locations, the habitat at these sites is either not well-known, or not considered optimal because these observations were of random occurrences in road depressions or other areas that are not natural habitat, and/or in areas

California Red-Legged Frog. The California red-legged frog is currently extirpated from its former range in Southern California south of the Transverse Ranges. It was last recorded in Riverside County in the early 2000s. Population declines have been attributed to habitat loss and degradation including introduced predators, water diversions, and poor water quality. Eligible lands under the SHA include aquatic (e.g., streams, creeks, ponds, and marshes), riparian, and adjacent upland habitat where threats to frogs have been addressed and minimized. Primary conservation measures implemented under the SHA include reintroductions, habitat management, and the minimization of potential threats (e.g., bullfrog predation and sedimentation). Additional conservation measures include allowing agency staff to monitor frogs and their habitat and to salvage/rescue frogs when necessary. Covered land use activities include recreation, ranching, agriculture, maintenance activities, and ongoing activities associated with the enrolled lands. If California red-legged frog populations become established within the eligible lands covered under the SHA, take of California red-legged frogs associated with the approved land uses and conservation measures outlined under the certificate of inclusion for enrolled lands would be authorized under the EOS permit during the 30- year permit term. The proposed SHA would implement conservation measures that contribute to the recovery of the California red-legged frog. The proposed SHA with the option for renewal is based on the commitment to implement the proposed SHA, including issuance of certificates of inclusion to participating non-Federal landowners. The reestablishment of the Southern California genetic lineage is an important conservation action for the species’ recovery. Therefore, the cumulative impact of the SHA and the activities it covers, which are facilitated by the allowable incidental take, are expected to provide a net conservation benefit to the California red-legged frog. We solicit written comments on the proposed safe harbor agreement and National Environmental Policy Act documentation described in this notice. All comments received by the date specified in DATES will be considered in development of a final safe harbor agreement for the California red-legged frog. You may submit written comments and information by email to the Service’s Carlsbad Fish and Wildlife Office at the above address (see ADDRESSES). Written comments we receive become part...

California Red-Legged Frog. Habitat for the California red-legged frog is described in Xxxxx and Xxxxxxxx (1988) and the critical habitat rule for the California red-legged frog published on March 17, 2010 (75 FR 12815). Adult California red-legged frogs prefer dense, shrubby or emergent riparian vegetation closely associated with deep (greater than 2.3 feet), still, or slow-moving water (Xxxxx and Xxxxxxxx 1988). However, California red-legged frogs also have been found in ephemeral creeks and drainages and in ponds that may or may not have riparian vegetation. Some California red- legged frogs have been found to remain in their breeding pond, while others disperse from their breeding habitat to forage and seek sheltering habitat. Habitat for the California red-legged frog consists of aquatic habitat, upland habitat, and/or dispersal habitat (75 FR 12815). The California red-legged frog requires aquatic habitat for breeding, such as any standing body of freshwater, including natural and manmade (e.g., stock) ponds, slow moving streams or pools within streams, and other ephemeral or permanent water bodies that typically become inundated during winter rains and hold water for a minimum of 20 weeks in all but the driest of years. The California red-legged frog breeding season typically runs from November through April, which coincides with the general rainy season in California. Mating most commonly occurs during February or March, but can vary depending on local and seasonal climatic patterns. Non- breeding aquatic habitat includes freshwater habitats that may or may not hold water long enough for the species to hatch and complete its aquatic lifecycle but provides for shelter, foraging, predator avoidance, and aquatic dispersal habitat for juvenile and adult California red- legged frogs. This includes plunge pools within intermittent creeks, seeps, quiet water refugia during high water flows, and springs of sufficient moisture to withstand the summer dry period. Upland habitat for the California red-legged frog includes those areas of variable distance from the edge of the riparian vegetation or drip-line surrounding aquatic habitat that provide for shelter, foraging, and predator avoidance. The upland features also maintain hydrologic, geographic, topographic, ecologic, and edaphic features that support the aquatic habitat. Dispersal habitat for the California red-legged frog includes accessible upland or riparian habitat between occupied locations that allows for movement between s...

California Red-Legged Frog. Suitable habitat for the California red-legged frog occurs at the Enrolled Property and the species has been observed as close as 0.5 mile to the north of the Park boundary. The species has also been documented breeding in ponds 2 miles to the northeast of the Park boundary in Palo Corona Regional Park. Because of their cryptic nature and the difficulty in detecting the actual number of California red-legged frogs in each life stage, the Parties have agreed to set the Baseline for the California red-legged frog at the Enrolled Property as an area composed of the current length of suitable aquatic stream habitat for the species multiplied by the adjacent width of riparian and wetland vegetation that provides suitable upland habitat for the species, although California red- legged frogs could occur beyond this area. The Baseline conditions for the California red-legged frog at the Enrolled Property consist of: • 5.37 acres at Wildcat Creek, composed of 2,342.09 linear feet of aquatic stream habitat by 100 feet of adjacent upland habitat;

Relocation areas shall be identified prior to the start of construction and are subject to the Department’s approval. If any species are found in the path of construction, the monitor shall relocate the species to a safe location. Exclusionary fencing shall be erected to prevent the migration into or the return of species into the work site. Field notes shall be kept and submitted to the Department after the first week of operations and upon completion of the project. 2.11.2 At least 15 days prior to the onset of activities, the Permittee shall submit the names(s) and credentials of biologists who will conduct activities specific to the following measures concerning the frog.
