2014 Breeding Season California Gnatcatcher Survey Results
INTRODUCTION
The Greenspot Property (hereafter referred to as “project site” or “site”) is located on
1,658 acres in the City of Highland, San Bernardino County, California. Previous habitat
assessment conducted by RBF in 2011 and updated in 2013 determined that the project
site and adjacent lands support habitat suitable for the federally threatened coastal
California gnatcatcher (Polioptila californica californica) (CAGN). Focused surveys for the
CAGN were conducted on portions of the property in 2011 and 2012 by Lisa Patterson
(Tom Dodson and Associates 2013). Kidd Biological, Inc. (KBI) conducted a more
comprehensive set of focused surveys to determine presence/absence of the CAGN
during the 2013-2014 non-breeding season (KBI 2014). This survey report documents
the result of 2014 breeding season survey results for the CAGN.
PROJECT SITE LOCATION
The project site is located in the southeastern-most portion of the City of Highland, San
Bernardino County, California (Exhibit 1: Regional Location Map). Specifically, the
project site is surrounded by the San Bernardino National Forest to the north, Mill Creek
and Mill Creek Road (State Route 38) to the east, the Santa Ana River and Greenspot
Road to the west, and percolation basins associated with flood control along Mill Creek
to the south (Exhibit 2: Project Vicinity Map). The project site occurs in various portions
of Sections 8, 9, 14, 15, 16, and 17 of Township 1 South and Range 2 West as depicted
on the Yucaipa U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle map.
Natural History of the California Gnatcatcher
The CAGN is a federally threatened species. It is most commonly found in the sage scrub
communities of coastal southern California. According to J. Atwood and J. Bolsinger
(1992) 99% of all CAGN observations are in areas with elevations below 950 feet. There
are reported occurrences of CAGN at 1,600 feet elevation (500 meters) (Davis and
McKernan, 1998). Elevation of the project site ranges from 1,880 feet to 2,700 feet
above mean sea level (MSL), making it higher in elevation than what is typically
associated with suitable CAGN habitat; however, with drought conditions in the region
and effects of global warming there is a possibility that CAGN may transition to higher
elevations where conditions are more suitable (Pounds et al 1999, Moritz et al 2008,
Chen et al, 2011).
CAGN are ground and shrub-foraging insectivores. They feed on small insects and other
arthropods. A CAGN’s territory is highly variable in size and seems to be correlated with

distance from the coast, ranging from less than 1 hectare (ha) to over 9 ha (Mock, 2004).
In a 1998 study, biologist Patrick Mock concluded that CAGN in the inland region require
a larger territory than those on the coast in order to meet the nutritional requirements
needed for survival and breeding.
The main threat to the CAGN is habitat loss, fragmentation, and degradation of habitat
from invasive plant species and drought. Urban and agricultural development, livestock
grazing, invasion of exotic grasses, off-road vehicles, pesticides, and military training
activities all contribute to the destruction of CAGN habitat. Once locally common, CAGN
have experienced widespread habitat loss and have lost most of their former range. By
1997, no more than 2,900 pairs remained in the United States. Only small patches of
coastal sage scrub remain, and the majority is privately owned, making species recovery
a difficult task.
The regional observations of CAGN are shown Exhibit 3: Project Site in Relation to
Regional Observances of CAGN. These locations were obtained from the California
Department of Wildlife’s (CDFW) Natural Diversity Data Base (CNDDB) (2014). The
closest documented observance of CAGN in the area occurred in 1995, 2006 and 2008,
approximately 1.5 to 3 miles to the west of the project site and within the immediate
vicinity of the Santa Ana River. The other observances documented in the CNDDB in the
region are clustered within Lytle Creek, Cajon Wash, and Etiwanda Fan areas to the west
as well as to the southwest in the Reche Canyon, Jurupa and Colton areas.
There have been other, more recent observances of CAGN in the Santa Ana Watershed,
below the Seven Oaks Dam and west of Greenspot Road, in 2009 and 2012 that were
reported on eBird1; however observations on eBird are often submitted by amateur
birders and their accuracy cannot be verified or validated.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
The project site is located at the foothills of the San Bernardino National Forest east of
the Santa Ana River and north of Mill Creek. The project site can be characterized as
mostly gently sloping and rolling terrain in the south and west with moderately to
steeply sloping terrain in the north and northeast. The elevation of the project site
varies from approximately 1,800 feet above MSL along the western boundary to
approximately 2,700 feet above MSL at the foothills on the northeast side of the project
site. Onsite drainages generally flow in a southwesterly direction into the Santa Ana
River and Mill Creek. In general, surface soils within the project site are well drained and
are associated with alluvial fans and hills.

(CAGN) Observations
The project site consists of open space, vacant land, orchards, and rural residential
developments. The surrounding land uses are a combination of agricultural (i.e. citrus
orchards), rural residential developments, utility easements, roadways, government
uses, flood control operations, and municipal water operations. The project site is
boarded by the San Bernardino National Forest to the north and east, Mill Creek to the
south, and vacant land, orchards, and existing low-density residential developments to
the west.
VEGETATION COMMUNITIES
Within the project site, six (6) main plant communities were identified with varying
levels of disturbances: Riversidean alluvial fan sage scrub (RAFSS), Riversidean sage
scrub (RSS), riparian, chaparral, agricultural, and ruderal (Exhibit 4: General Vegetation
Map). Human activities such as agricultural and irrigation practices as well as surface
mining operations (borrow for Seven Oaks Dam) have substantially modified these
natural habitats occurring on the project site. Additionally, the plant communities have
been subjected to naturally occurring wildfires, the most recent which occurred five
years ago. The combination of human disturbances and wildfires have resulted in
significant modifications to the native plant communities on the project site and may
have reduced the connectivity of the San Bernardino National Forest found to the north
of the project site to both the Santa Ana River and Mill Creek found along the southern
and western boundaries of the project site.
Approximately 801.67 acres on the project site is considered suitable CAGN habitat,
including RAFSS, Riversidean sage scrub and disturbed Riversidean sage scrub (RBF
2011, updated 2013). Brief descriptions, which were taken from the RBF Habitat
Assessment Report (2011, updated 2013) of the plant communities supporting suitable
CAGN habitat are included below.
Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub (117.43 Acres)
RAFSS habitat occurs on the project site in association with the flood plains along the
Santa Ana River and Mill Creek. The Santa Ana River and Mill Creek flow in a
southwesterly direction adjacent to the project site and the RAFSS habitat associated
with them extends inside the western and southern boundaries of the project site. The
RAFSS habitat on the western boundary of the project site is described as a mature
RAFSS community that is comprised of chamise (Adenostoma fasciculatum), California
brickelbush (Brickellia californica), hoary leaf ceanothus (Ceanothus crassifolius),
chaparral whitethorn (Ceanothus leucodermis), California juniper (Juniperus californica),
California buckwheat (Eriogonum fasciculatum), deerweed (Acmispon glaber previously
Lotus scoparius), holly-leaved cherry (Prunus ilicifolia), spiny redberry (Rhamnus crocea),
and white sage (Salvia apiana).
6
Whereas the RAFSS habitat on the southern boundary is an intermediate RAFSS
community primarily comprised of scalebroom (Lepidospartum squamatum), California
buckwheat, brittlebush (Encelia farinosa), matchweed (Gutierrezia californica), broom
matchweed (Gutierrezia sarothrae), telegraph weed (Heterotheca grandiflora), coastal
goldenbush (Isocoma menziesii), interior goldenbush (Ericameria linearifolia), hairy
yerba santa (Eriodictyon trichocalyx), California sagebrush (Artemisia californica),
Coastal prickly pear (Opuntia littoralis), valley cholla (Opuntia parryi), shrubby
butterweed (Senecio flaccidus), and Our Lord’s candle (Yucca whipplei).
Riversidean Sage Scrub (79.50 Acres)
The project site is located at the foothills of the San Bernardino National Forest above
the floodplains of the Santa Ana River and Mill Creek. The predominant plant
community occurring on the project site is a RSS plant community occurring in various
stages of disturbance and recovery and these areas are fairly sparse with areas of grass
or bare ground between shrubs. Areas of higher quality undisturbed RSS are primarily
associated with the sides of drainage features traversing the project site. There are only
79.50 acres of sage scrub habitat that were not disturbed. The remaining areas were
previously disturbed.
Disturbed Riversidean Sage Scrub (604.74 Acres)
The majority of the disturbed RSS found onsite is composed of California buckwheat,
and is primarily found in the central portions of the project site. California buckwheat is
an early pioneer species encountered during natural recovery of a native sage scrub
plant community. Other areas of disturbed RSS onsite are dominated by brittlebush and
California sagebrush. The brittlebush dominated disturbed RSS is primarily found on the
northern and southern portions of the project site, and the California sagebrush
dominated disturbed RSS is primarily found on the northern and central portions of the
property associated with buckwheat. Disturbance in these areas ranges from flood
control activities, fuel modification, weed abatement, and disturbances related to
previous agricultural uses of the site (old foundations of homes, irrigation ditches, fallow
orchards, roads, plowed areas, etc.).

METHODS
The required 15-day notification to conduct focused surveys was submitted by email to
the permit coordinator at the Carlsbad U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Office
dated November 13, 2013 (Appendix A).
Methods employed were in conformance with USFWS CAGN presence/absence survey
guidelines for conducting breeding season surveys (USFWS 1997). Accordingly, six (6)
diurnal surveys were conducted by the USFWS permitted biologists noted in Table 1:
Surveying Biologists, below, during the breeding season, at least one (1) week apart.
Surveys were conducted between the hours of 6:00 A.M. and 12:00 P.M. within all
portions of the project site supporting potentially suitable habitat. The permitted
biologist slowly walked through the project site while visually examining the area for
CAGN and stopping at appropriate intervals, uttering pishing sounds, and/or playing a
digital recording of CAGN vocalizations. The audio was played for several seconds at
each interval, followed by a brief pause to listen for a response. The location(s) of CAGN
observations (if any) were mapped with the use of a GPS unit.

RESULTS
All areas considered suitable CAGN habitat were surveyed by KBI during breeding
season surveys (Exhibit 5: Aerial Photo of Survey Area Polygons). It should be noted;
however, that not all areas within each survey polygon supported suitable CAGN
habitat. Rather, a variety of other plant communities and disturbed areas (e.g., nonnative grassland, ruderal, riparian, burned) of various patch sizes were intermixed within
the suitable CAGN habitat plant communities. Due to the size of the survey area, the site
was divided into 10 survey polygons. Each polygon was surveyed 6 times. The table in
Appendix B summarizes the results of each survey.
No CAGN were detected during the 2014 breeding season surveys. Further, no CAGN
were detected during non-breeding season surveys conducted on the project site by KBI
in 2013-2014 (KBI 2014) or during any of the previous surveys of the

site. Although the CAGN has been observed west of the project site at lower elevations
along the Santa Ana River, the density of CAGN within this region is sparse and not
nearly as dense as coastal regions. The inland areas tend to have more blue-grey
gnatcatchers (Polioptila caerulea), which were observed on multiple occasions in
multiple polygons during surveys on the project site. All avian species detected during
the surveys are listed in the Avian Compendium (Appendix C). Copies of field data forms
are provided in Appendix D.
Other Sensitive Species Observed
This survey was focused on a single species, the CAGN; however, incidental
observation(s) of all sensitive species were documented. There are various definitions of
“sensitive” in accordance with State and Federal Agencies. The following is a brief
summary of the status of the species that were observed on site (all definitions were
taken directly from State of California Department of Fish and Game Biogeographic Data
Branch’s Special Animals list (January 2011):
DFG: Fully Protected (FPS): The classification of Fully Protected was the State's initial
effort to identify and provide additional protection to those animals that were rare or
faced possible extinction. Lists were created for fish, amphibians and reptiles, birds and
mammals. Most of the species on these lists have subsequently been listed under the
state and/or federal endangered species acts; white-tailed kite, golden eagle, trumpeter
swan, northern elephant seal and ring-tailed cat are the exceptions. The white-tailed
kite and the golden eagle are tracked in the CNDDB. The Fish and Game Code sections
dealing with Fully Protected species state that these species "....may not be taken or
possessed at any time and no provision of this code or any other law shall be construed
to authorize the issuance of permits or licenses to take any fully protected" species,
although take may be authorized for necessary scientific research. This language
arguably makes the "Fully Protected" designation the strongest and most restrictive
regarding the "take" of these species.
DFG California Species of Special Concern (SSC): It is the goal and responsibility of the
DFG to maintain viable populations of all native species. To this end, the Department
has designated certain vertebrate species as “Species of Special Concern” because
declining population levels, limited ranges, and/or continuing threats have made them
vulnerable to extinction. The goal of designating species as “Species of Special Concern”
is to halt or reverse their decline by calling attention to their plight and addressing the
issues of concern early enough to secure their long term viability.
USFWS Bird of Conservation Concern (BCC): The goal of the Birds of Conservation
Concern 2008 report is to accurately identify the migratory and non-migratory bird
species (beyond those already designated as federally threatened or endangered) that
represent our highest conservation priorities and draw attention to species in need of
conservation action.
11
American Bird Conservancy (AWL): United States WatchList of Birds of Conservation
Concern: The United States WatchList is a joint project between the American Bird
Conservancy and the National Audubon Society. It reflects a comprehensive analysis of
all the bird species in the United States. It reveals those in greatest need of immediate
conservation attention to survive a convergence of environmental challenges, including
habitat loss, invasive species, and global warming.

A pair of least Bell’s vireos was observed in the strip of riparian habitat located in
Polygon 5. The male vireo was heard calling from this area during multiple surveys.
A group of four willow flycatchers were also observed migrating through Polygon 6 on
May 27, 2014. This species was not believed to be the federally listed sub species due
to the timing of year and habitat observed within. They did not breed on the project
site.
12
Within polygon 10, two patches of approximately 25 Santa Ana River woolly star plants
were observed. These were all located west of Greenspot road.
Also, of note, sign of bobcat (Lynx rufus) and mountain lion (Puma concolor) were
observed during surveys. These species were also observed during non-breeding season
surveys. The occurrence of these large mammalian species typically indicates that
portions of the project site may function as a wildlife corridor that is often used by these
species for foraging.
Raptors
Several raptors, including Cooper’s hawk, red-tailed hawk, red-shouldered hawk,
northern harrier and white-tailed kite were observed during the surveys. Two red-tailed
hawk nests were observed on the site. In addition, it is believed that the pair of whitetailed kites nest just west of the project site within the orange groves or within a pine
tree near a farm house. Although surveys did not focus on locating raptor nests, it is
believed that all the raptor observed on the site nest on the site or in the immediate
vicinity due to the presence of suitable nesting habitats and their regular observations
on the project site during the breeding season.
Brown-headed Cowbirds
Brood parasitism by brown-headed cowbirds (Molothus ater) can have a significant
effect on CAGN population if not monitored and controlled. Cowbirds were observed on
the project site during surveys during at least five (5) of the breeding season surveys.
The majority of the cowbird observations (4) were observed within polygon 9 along the
northwestern boundary of the project. Due to the lack of CAGN on the site, the
cowbirds will not have an impact on that species; however their presence adjacent to
riparian areas could be detrimental to sensitive riparian bird species such as the least
Bell’s vireo and southwestern willow flycatcher.
CONCLUSION
No CAGN were observed within the project site. The project site supports large areas of
marginally suitable habitat, with other, smaller patches of higher quality habitat. The
project site is at the northeastern edge of the species’ range. The most recent
observations in the general area are six years old and no observations have been
reported on the project site. No recent observations in the region have been reported. It
is not known how the population range of the CAGN may change in the future.
Significant restoration or modification of the existing habitat within the Greenspot
Property would be needed to provide enough suitable habitat to allow this species to
expand their territories onto the project site or possibly utilize the project site for
breeding.
13
Several other sensitive species were observed within the property during the survey and
the site is valuable for foraging and nesting raptors.

15-Day Notice to perform California Gnatcatcher presence/absence surveys (nonbreeding and breeding season) in the City of Highland, San Bernardino County,
California.
Dear Susie,
A habitat assessment was conducted by RBF Consulting on behalf of LCD Greenspot, LLC development
company and the Orange County Flood Control District and it was determined that certain areas within a
proposed 1,658 acre master planned community project were suitable for the California Gnatcatcher
(Polioptila californica californica).
The 1,658-acre Greenspot Property is located in the southeastern-most portion of the City of Highland,
San Bernardino County, California (Exhibit 1: Regional Location Map). Specifically, the project site is
surrounded by the San Bernardino National Forest to the north, Mill Creek and Mill Creek Road (State
Route 38) to the east, Santa Ana River and Greenspot Road to the west, and percolation basins
associated with flood control along Mill Creek to the east (Exhibit 2: Project Vicinity Map). The project
site occurs in various portions of Sections 8, 9, 14, 15, 16, and 17 of Township 1 South and Range 2 West
as depicted on the Yucaipa U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle map
Portions of the site were surveyed in 2011 and 2012 by Tom Dodson and Associates. Kidd Biological, Inc.
has since been contracted by RBF to conduct focused protocol presence/absence surveys for this species
the site. During various assessments of the site from 2011 to 2013, approximately 900 acres of habitat
contained some element of sage scrub. For planning purposes, we are assuming all 900 acres will
require surveys; however a following up habitat assessment will be conducted prior to the first focused
survey to refine the survey areas. Surveys will be conducted following a modified non-breeding season
protocol as the surveys will extend into the breeding season and the project proponent wishes to
capture data from both the breeding and non-breeding season. A proposed survey schedule is
presented below. We estimate that 11 survey days are required for each pass based on 900 acres of
suitable or somewhat suitable habitat.
Surveys are to be performed per U.S. Fish and Wildlife (USFWS) California gnatcatcher protocol
guidelines by permitted biologists Jason Berkley, Nina Kidd, Erik LaCoste, Miki Kern, Crysta Dickson, Karly
Moore, and/or John Konecny (Permit Numbers TE-009015-3, TE-036550-3, TE-027736-5, TE-56726A-0,
TE-067347-4, TE-02484A-0, and TE-837308-4 respectively) of Kidd Biological, Inc.
Biologist Travis McGill of RBF may accompany Kidd Biological biologists during the surveys to acquire
hours towards his 10(a)1(A) permit.
We would like to initiate surveys November 25, 2013 to ensure as many non-breeding season surveys
can be accomplished prior to initiating breeding season surveys. Based on the November 25th start date,
we propose the following schedule (subject to change based on weather):
