Supplemental Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Vernal Pool Restoration Project in Wing Infrastructure Development Outlook (WINDO) Implementation Plan EA, Volume 2 Beale Air Force Base, California

Abstract

Proposed Action. The Proposed Action consists of vernal pool restoration projects at "Site 2" and "Site 3" at Beale AFB. The vernal pool restoration projects fulfill compensation requirements for past and future impacts to vernal pools that are habitat for federally threatened and endangered species. No Action Alternative. Under the No Action Alternative, Beale AFB would not be able to meet regulatory compensation requirements. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers require compensation for vernal pool impacts to involve both a restoration/creation component and a preservation component.
