California Department of Fish and Gamr- Wbile the Draft EIR contains numerous statements regarding the value of the Mokelumne. River and its associated riparian habitat, the report does not contain I lariguage that specifically protects these resources. Policy E-1 states. that the "City shall protect" the river and its associated habitats; however, it does not indicate what this protection wffl involve, We recommend that the Final EIR and General Plan update include specific protection for the river and its associated habitat. This would include provisions that there be no residential or nonresidential construction or vegetation removal within the floodplain of the Mokelumne River. In order to comply with Public Resources Code Section 21081.6, a detafled L# onitoring program must be developed for all required mitigation conditions. The monitoring program should includ e the following: a. specific criteria to measure effectiveness of mitigation; b. annual monitoring for a minimum of 5 years and annual written reports submitted to the lead agency and the DFG; and C. annual monitoring reports, each of which includes corrective recommendations that shall be implemented in order to ensure that mitigation efforts are successful. Pursuant to Public Resources. Code Sections 21092 and 21092.2, the DFG requests written notification of proposed actions and pending decisions regarding this project. Please be advised that work consisting of but not limited to diversion or obstruction of the natural flow or changes in the channel, bed, or bank of any river, stream, or M lake will require notification to the DFG as required by Fish and Game Code I Seaton 1600 et seq. The notification (nth fee), and subsequent agreement, mist e completed prior to initiating any such work. Notification to the DFG should be made after the project is approved by the lead agency.

Projects Coordinator -2- 2. Mr. David Morimoto June 7, 1990 agricultural settings. Lack of regeneration in valley oaks from frazing and urban encroachment is one of the prime reasons for loss of this habitat type. we recommend that the mitigation in the Final EIR be changed to provide for the protection of all age classes of valley oak trees, and. be further revised to include measures to ensure replanting and establishment of replacement trees in the event of the loss of individual trees. The Draft EIR correctly identifies the loss of native and agricultural habitats as contributing to a direct decline in biological diversity. The Draft EIR seeks to mitigate this impact through managing portions of the storm drainage detention basins and other appropriate areas as wildlife habitat. If it were possible to mitigate the loss of natural and open space wildlife habitats by the creation of by parks, many of California's native plant and wild ife species would not currently be experiencing such severe population declines. The projected lo ..-._. R.. gnant adverse impact that is not reduced to insignificance U*.y the proposed mitigation measures. This proposal will not offer habitat mation for a variety of wildlife species that are not adaptable to urban or park environments. Many parks, like those in existing storm drainage dete:ntion basins, offer very limited wildlife habitat values. Wt recommend that the Final EIR contain measures that compensate for losses of wildlife habitat in a meaningful manner by maintaininq and/or replacing existing habitat in-kind. while the Draft EIR contains numerous statements regarding the value of the mo.kelumne River and its associated riparian habitat, the report does not contain language which specifically protects these resources. Policy E-1 states that the "City shall protect' the river and its associated habitats; however, it does not indicate what this protection w -i-11 involve. We recommend that t Final EIR and General Plan update include specific protection fo the river and its associated habitat. This would include provisions that there be no residential or nonresidential construction or vegetation removal within the flood plain of the Mokelumne River.

These policies are in conflict with the Lodi City Councils' adoption of the Countywide Rail Goals and Policies statement last year. The Countywide Rail Goals and Policies, as well as the policies outlined in the County General Plan, call for an integrated network of bus, rail and ridesharing options to provide a system of local alternatives. The following suggestions are offered for inclusion in this element of the Lodi Plan. Policy B-2 The City shall consider the development of local park n' ride facilities, in conjunction with the development of a downtown multi -modal transportation center, to accommodate additional locations for fvture rail and bus services if the demand and economics warrant same. Policy C-4 The City shall coordinate the development of a multi -modal transportation center at the general site of the Southern Pacific Depot to accommodate future fixed route and Dial -A -Ride services. Policy D -E The City shall consider the need for integrating bicycle and pedestrian ways which would support the development of local transportation hubs. Policy F-2 The City shall support the development of a multi -modal train station on the Southern Pacific rail line which, if demand and economy warrant, would house both regional and high speed rail transportation modes.

The direction of the school board, based upon public concern has been to return to a traditional calendar, a factor which increases the number of schools required. Modifications to tables and charts to reflect this are included in this letter. 10-8 Para 4-11ne add LUSD is continuing to work with local developers to establish a fundirk@ mechanism which wou provide local funding for schools, whether that be a Mello -Roos or some alternative mechanism, orboth. The district has also been requested to place a Mello Roos proposal befor- ihe Lodi voters to provide financing that would enable the return to a traditional calendar. Th availability of State funds for new school construction is -not. limited to 50% of the cost of a project at best, assuming funds can be made available. there is presently no stable source of revenue for the State program and all current and possible November, 1990 State bond funds are Gommitted. 10-24 Last P ... pokies. 10-25 Meader 2 should read - Need for 2gv_Pa_UJ%—=New Schools Not Currently Planned for by the, LUSA 10-25 Para 4 -line 2 should read- development within the GP area would require construction of at least seven schools (five efementafy schools, one middle school and one high school) that are not spec�troij in the LUSD_.. 10-25 Para 5 -line 2 should read - ....
