Contact 412 CEG/CEO at

(661) 277-1167 for information on base inert debris locations. Contact 412 CEG/CEVC at 277- 1411 for inert debris disposal requirements.

Natural Resources:

72. The following measures follow the terms and conditions for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Biological Opinion for: Operations and Activities Edwards Air Force Base, California (8-8-14-F-14) regarding the effects on the federally threatened desert tortoise and its critical habitat. Contact 412 CEG/CEVA at 661-277-1417 or 412ceg.ceva.nrfieldsurveys@us.af.mil if any questions arise regarding these measures.

• The Desert Tortoise Handout (DT Handout 412 TWPA Release #18150 20180316) shall be distributed to vehicle and equipment drivers prior to accessing Edwards AFB and the project area. All workers should review the handout. If possible, the handout should also be posted at the project site.

• Project personnel shall look out for and avoid all desert tortoises on any roadways used to access the project area. All project personnel shall inspect under all vehicles and equipment for desert tortoises prior to operation. Any sightings of desert tortoise must be reported immediately to 412 CEG/CEVA at (661) 277-1417.

• Open excavations will be checked three times a day and authorized personnel will remove any trapped animals. Open excavations will be covered, backfilled, or fenced at the end of each workday. At the ends of a ditch or trench, a 3: 1 slope will be created to allow wildlife to exit should they become trapped in the ditch or trench. All open excavations that are left unattended will be fenced, unless other approved methods of excluding desert tortoises are employed.

• All trash and food items will be disposed of in common raven-proof containers, and regularly removed from project sites to reduce attraction of common ravens.

• Any pipes stored within the area shall be capped on open ends or elevated at least 12 inches off the ground to prevent entry by desert tortoise or other wildlife.

• Parking and staging areas will be restricted to previously disturbed areas.

73. Contact 412 CEG/CEVA at (661) 277-1417 if an active bird nest (nest with eggs, unfledged birds, or adult birds observed in the nest) or burrowing owl burrow is found within the project area and cannot be avoided.

74. Contact 412 CEG/CEVA at (661) 277-1417 if bats are observed roosting in the project area.

75. Avoid creating ponding water in or near project area, so that it minimizes the attraction of wildlife, such as desert tortoise and birds, and create aircraft collision hazards or increase the potential for accidental takes.

Cultural Resources:

76. The proposed project, Replace 4 Sunshades on Ramp 7, is an undertaking subject to Section

106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), as defined in 36 CFR §800.16(y). The Edwards AFB Cultural Resources Manager (CRM), or qualified personnel under the direction or supervision of the CRM, has reviewed the proposed undertaking and determined that the project will have no effect on historic properties, provided the following measures are strictly adhered to:

• Consultation is not required based on Appendix A of the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) “Program Comment on Certain Housing, Building, and Transportation Undertakings.”

77. If inadvertent above- or below-ground discoveries (e.g., artifacts or bones) are made during the project’s execution:

The Contractor must:

• Immediately cease activity in the area of the discovery.

mailto:412ceg.ceva.nrfieldsurveys@us.af.mil

• Notify the supervising Project Manager.

• Secure the discovery location and establish a 50-foot buffer zone around the discovery.

The Project Manager shall:

• Immediately notify the CRM of the discovery at

412CEG.CEVA.CulturalResources@us.af.mil.

• Confirm that the activity has ceased within 50 feet of the discovery.

• Examine the location of the discovery to ensure that it has been properly secured. Take appropriate measures to further secure the location, if needed.

• Await review by CRM before returning to work in the area of discovery.

78. If the undertaking is modified subsequent to this review, the proponent shall coordinate with Cultural Resources to ensure compliance with Section 106 of the NHPA, as amended. Coordination can be accomplished by contacting 412 CEG/CEVA at 412CEG.CEVA.CulturalResources@us.af.mil .

79. Based upon the information provided, there is no requirement to consult with the California State Historic Preservation Officer.

Other Permits:

80. This project may require an AFTC IMT 5926, Edwards AFB Civil Engineering Work Clearance Request

(digging permit). The contractor shall coordinate the digging permit with the Base Civil Engineer Execution Support by contacting 412 CEG/CENME at (661) 277-1530 for specific requirements.

Dependent on dig location, these minimization measures are subject to change.

ERP MAP

A Cultural resources can be defined as physical evidence or place of past human activity: site, object, landscape, structure; or a site, structure, landscape, object or natural feature of significance to a group of people traditionally associated with it (https://www.nps.gov/acad/learn/management/rm_culturalresources.htm)

At EAFB cultural resources include historic-era resources (typically more than 50 years old), military resources (related to the historic and modern military use of the area), and American Indian resources (generally called Prehistoric resources). Some of these resources as much as 12,000 years old

It is our goal to protect these resources because once they are gone we cannot ever get them back.
