Question Answer March 31, 2023

Q1. Section 623.05 Biological Services states the qualifications for authorized biologist includes "b) a minimum of 60 days of field monitoring experience using accepted resource agency".

Does this pertain specifically to desert tortoise field monitoring, or general monitoring experience? I presume it is tortoise-specific, but the qualifications for tortoise monitors are more explicit in requiring "prior experience conducting desert tortoise surveys and/or monitoring experience".

A1. The experience requirement pertains specifically to the desert tortoise with prior experience conducting desert tortoise surveys and/or monitoring experience.

Q2. Plans show 2” sign post at 10 gauge. In checking with all of our suppliers they do not make a 2” sign post at 10 gauge. Can we assume that we will be using a 2 1/2” 10 gauge sign post?

A2. Yes, please use a 2.5” 10 Ga sign post as applicable. Please refer to the Caltrans website for the RS5 Detail in its entirety. The conversion from DGN workspaces resulted in the fractions being shown as asterisks.
