About this file

This document is a treatment checklist related to the California Department of Food and Agriculture's (CDFA) Statewide Plant Pest Prevention and Management Program. The checklist outlines the requirements for conducting activities under the program, including general requirements, management practices, and mitigation measures. It also provides a decision-making process for determining if a proposed activity is substantially similar to what was considered in the program's PEIR (Programmatic Environmental Impact Report) or if additional CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act) documentation is required.

The related state and local contract opportunity is an Invitation for Bids (IFB 24-0005) issued by CDFA for multiple-award contracts to provide ground application of pesticides for eradication and control projects against plant pests and diseases in various counties across California. The contract will cover services in Imperial, Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, Santa Barbara, and Ventura Counties. Bidders can submit proposals for individual counties or regions, and the responsive lowest-cost bidder per location will be awarded the contract. The contract term and any renewal options are not specified.

Mitigation Measures

Mitigation Measure BIO-CHEM-2: CDFA will obtain technical assistance from USFWS, CDFW and NMFS to identify site-specific buffers and other measures to protect habitats utilized by special-status species Mitigation Measure HAZ-GEN-4a: Determine Potential for Hazardous Materials Exposure

Mitigation Measure HAZ-GEN-4b: Conduct a Hazardous Materials Records Search before Beginning Proposed Program Activities at a Given Site Mitigation Measure HAZ-GEN-4c: Stop work and implement hazardous materials investigations/ remediation for contamination health risks

Mitigation Measure HAZ-CHEM-1a: Conduct Public Information Sessions Regarding Pesticide Safety Practices Mitigation Measure HAZ-CHEM-1b: Conduct Training Sessions and Prepare Educational Materials Regarding Safe Handling and Application of Pesticides Mitigation Measure HAZ-CHEM-3: Require Compliance with the Proposed Program’s Authorized Chemical Application Scenarios Mitigation Measure NOISE-PHYS-1: Conduct Activities during the Daytime

Mitigation Measure WQ-CHEM-2: Track Emerging Water Quality Standards and Implement Additional Mitigation as Appropriate Mitigation Measure WQ-CHEM-5: Require Implementation of Proposed Program MPs as Part of Compliance Agreements Mitigation Measure WQ-CUM-1: Identify whether Proposed Program Pesticide Applications May Occur in Proximity to Impaired Waterbodies, and Implement Appropriate MPs

California Department of Food and Agriculture C-23 Sep 2016

Part C

Y/N Justification/Rationale

Step 1

Is the Activity substantially similar to that considered in the

PEIR?

(If yes go to Step 2, if no move to the next question)

If a management practice that was not included in the PEIR is being considered, would it be equivalent or more effective to the management practice originally considered in the

PEIR?

(If yes go to Step 2, if no move to the next question)

If a mitigation measure that was not included in the PEIR is being considered, would it be equivalent or more effective to the mitigation measure originally considered in the

PEIR?

(If yes go to Step 2, if no move to the next question)

Would the activity result in potentially significant impacts which were not considered in the PEIR, not considered to be significant in the PEIR, or would be substantially more significant than disclosed in the

PEIR?

(If yes go to Step 3, if no go to Step 2)

Step 2 Attach supporting documentation for determination, and CEQA Addendum, as applicable

Step 3 Attach tiered CEQA document, and identify additional requirements from that document
