Protective measures shall include establishment of clearly delineated exclusion zones(i.e.demarcated by identifiable fencing,such as orange construction fencing or equivalent) around each nest location as determined by a qualified biologist,taking into account the species of birds nesting,their tolerance for disturbance and proximity to existing development.In general,exclusion zones shall be a minimum of 300 feet for raptors and 75 feet for passerines and other birds.The active nest within an exclusion zone shall be monitored on a weekly basis throughout the nesting season to identify signs of disturbance and confirm nesting status.The radius of an exclusion zone may be increased by the qualified biologist if project activities are determined to be adversely affecting the nesting birds.

Right-of-way acquisition may be required.In accordance with Caltrans procedures,a Project Study Report(PSR)will need to be prepared.The PSR will look at all interchange improvement options, which may include widening the overcrossing and may include redesign of the interchange to go from a partial cloverleaf design to a diamond design.This could help Agenc.y Responsible Monitoring Monitoring for Monitoring Action Frequency ���cewoxKS 9 GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT, HOUS�NG ELEMENT UPDATE, AND ASSOCIATED REZONING C�TY OF CUPERTINO MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM TABLE 1 MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM Party Responsible Implementation Mitigation Measures for Implementation Timing 0 � 0 with heavy volumes in the right lane,which contributes to the level-of-service deficiency.
