Policies and design features incorporated into this plan shall address the following concerns. Introduction of In order to protect the native plant communities within the natural open space areas south of the site and the Agoura Road improvement non - native program, Prohibited Ornamental Plants (listed in Table 4 -2) will not be planted within the proposed common landscaped areas, or within the species Agoura Road Corridor.

Prior to surveying Impacts Resulting activities, the surveyor will be instructed to avoid driving on or immediately adjacent to sensitive biological resources, including from Grading and remaining trees, remaining jurisdictional resources, and remaining natural habitats. Construction Activities ➢ The construction contractor will ensure that temporary fencing is installed at the grading limit when it is close to natural habitat areas (continued) or to any identified jurisdictional resources. The fencing will remain in place until grading and excavation work is complete, and will be removed under direction of the biological inspector. Prior to fence installation, the fencing contractor will be instructed to avoid driving on or immediately adjacent to sensitive biological resources, including remaining trees, remaining jurisdictional resources, and remaining natural habitats. ➢ If the temporary fencing is damaged during construction, the construction contractor shall be responsible for repairing the damage within 48 hours. ➢ Signs, stating that access to preserved natural open space areas is prohibited, will be attached to the temporary fencing. ➢ Along the southern side of the Agoura Road Corridor, all California black walnut, native oak, and mature trees within 200 feet of grading and construction shall be inventoried and marked for protection prior to any construction activities. Trees to be removed shall be painted or tagged with a red "X" on the trunk. Trees to be preserved shall be flagged with yellow flagging visible from all directions. The flagging will not be nailed to any trees. ➢ All California black walnut, native oak, and mature trees to be preserved in the vicinity of the grading limits shall be protected with temporary fencing. Plastic snow - fencing, available in bright orange, is recommended for its high visibility and ease of installation. Where possible, the fencing will be no closer than 5 feet to the dripline of any tree. ➢ Where necessary, erosion control measures shall be constructed on the slopes below grading areas to prevent erosion and materials deposits into areas with remaining California black walnut, native oak, and mature trees during grading and construction activities. These erosion control measures will also prevent silts from entering drainages. ➢ Entry into areas outside the designated construction area by construction personnel shall be prohibited, except for necessary construction- related activities such as surveying, and possible construction of storm drain inlet and outlet structures. All construction activities in or adjacent to remaining open space areas shall be coordinated with the City.

City Activities monitoring staff will periodically examine the erosion control devices to ensure proper operation. The construction contractor will be (continued) responsible for repairing any erosion control devices not working correctly. ➢ Refueling and changing oil or other fluids is prohibited on the project site. Vehicles carrying supplies, such as concrete, will not be allowed to empty, clean out, or otherwise place materials into the on -site open space areas or natural areas adjacent to the site. If oil or other fluids spill accidentally within the open space areas, the contaminated soil will be removed from the area immediately and disposed of in accordance with laws and regulations. ➢ Discarding any trash or other construction waste material within the open space or natural areas adjacent to the site is prohibited. The construction contractor will periodically collect trash and debris within construction areas for disposal off -site according to laws and regulations. ➢ Equipment or vehicles driven and /or operated within or adjacent to on -site drainages shall be checked and maintained daily to prevent hazardous materials leaks. Equipment maintenance is prohibited within or adjacent to jurisdictional areas, or within 50 feet of these areas. ➢ Standard Los Angeles County Air Quality Management District dust control measures shall be followed to reduce impacts on nearby plants and wildlife. This includes dust - reducing options such as replacing ground cover in disturbed areas as quickly as possible, watering active sites regularly, and suspending all excavating and grading operations during periods of high winds. ➢ The biological inspector and /or a qualified arborist retained through the EQAP program shall periodically monitor all project construction activities in the vicinity of any California black walnut, native oak, or mature trees. ➢ The EQAP arborist will monitor all grading and construction activities within 5 feet of the dripline of any California black walnut, native oak, or mature trees.

(continued) ➢ If lowering the grade within 5 feet of the dripline of any California black walnut, native oak, or mature trees, the root zone shall be protected. Retaining walls shall be used around trees as needed to preserve root zones. If a retaining wall is not feasible, then the cut should be covered with 4 to 6 inches of mulch or ungrouted stone to prevent roots from drying out. ➢ During or following construction, a qualified arborist will prune all dead branches and hazardous limbs from all remaining trees located adjacent to the development envelope. Dead branches housing bird nest cavities shall be removed for safety reasons only.. ➢ Grading uphill from remaining California black walnut, native oak, or mature trees shall not allow excess soil or rock to escape downslope or disturb tree bases. ➢ Hand -tools are required for any brush clearance within tree driplines. ➢ Where possible, irrigation devices shall be installed outside oak driplines. ➢ Irrigation will not wet areas within oak driplines. ➢ Unavoidable surface runoff must flow away from remaining trees, or be collected outside the dripline by a swale or other means. Water shall not pond or collect within any oak dripline.

Air Quality Air Quality Mitigation Plan Mitigation Plan The applicant's environmental consultants have proposed incorporating the following measures into an Air Quality Mitigation Plan. The Community Development Director shall approve this Plan prior to issuing grading or building permits. The Plan shall apply to all areas within the project boundary where mass grading will occur. This Plan shall decrease air quality impacts due to project grading and other construction activities. Policies and design features in this plan shall address the following concerns. (1) The Construction Supervisor shall require all development contractors to keep on -site project records demonstrating that equipment engines are in good condition. Proper tuning according to manufacturer specifications is required to prevent excessive emissions. These records shall be available for City review during grading and construction inspections. (2) The Construction Supervisor shall prepare and submit a Dust Control Plan for City review and approval when applying for grading permits. (3) All active construction site areas shall be watered sufficiently at least twice daily to minimize fugitive dust generation. Other recommended dust and particulate control measures include: City of Moorpark 11/2001 Page 66 of 70 West Poh ae Homes 250 Unit Subdivision in Walnut Canyon Environmental Issue Mitigation Measure Air Quality ■ Replacing ground cover or applying APCD- approved chemical soil stabilizers according to manufacturer's specifications to Mitigation Plan all inactive portions of the construction site (previously graded areas inactive for four days or more).
