Revised Mr. Kenny Nguyen HZ Project No. 10- 1378 -01 February 26, 2010 Page 3 For the proposed project, an ICF Jones & Stokes qualified architectural historian will conduct a field survey of the proposed project area to record buildings, structures, and historic features through photography and written descriptions. California Historic Resource Inventory forms (series DPR 523) will be prepared for up to twenty (20) resources as noted above. ICF Jones & Stokes will send out letters requesting information on historic properties to local governments, historical societies, and historic preservation organizations. The evaluation of properties within the APE will be reported in the Historical Resource Evaluation Report (HRER), which will include a historic context statement. In addition to the HRER, a Supplemental HPSR form (No Historic Properties Affected) will be prepared. No archeological effort or reporting is assumed or included in this scope of work. This scope and cost assumes that: 1) the APE presented in the original HPSR for the proposed project will not be modified; 2) no Native American consultation will be required; and 3) Caltrans will concur with the properties that we have exempted from further evaluation under the Section 106 Programmatic Agreement and will not require that we address any of these resources in detail in the HRER. It is further assumed at this time that no cultural resources will be impacted by the proposed project that are eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places and that no additional cultural resources work (i.e., preparation of a Finding of Effect, Memorandum of Agreement, etc.,) will be required. Only those items specifically identified in this scope of work are included. No other effort is assumed or implied. The assumptions included in our original scope of work (other than those identified in this amendment) are not modified by this scope and cost. It is assumed that Caltrans will review and comment on the Supplemental HPSR (including HRER and DPR forms) twice. 1.3 PRELIMINARY JURISDICTIONAL WATERS DELINEATION: Field Work A delineation of federally jurisdictional waters and wetlands, and state jurisdictional streambeds, will be conducted by a qualified delineator. Federal jurisdiction will be determined based on the 1987 manual and Arid West Supplement for this purpose from the Corps of Engineers along with supporting information which may include soils surveys, wetland plant lists, regulatory guidance letters from the Corps of Engineers, and other clarifying documents. State jurisdiction will be determined based on a combination of the federal jurisdiction determination, the California Fish and Game Code, current guidelines on Streambed Alteration Agreements, and standard practice by Department of Fish and Game personnel. Mapping will be performed at a scale of 1 inch equals 200 feet (1:2400) or better, with a minimum mapping unit of no more than 0.05 acres, and will reflect the delineated boundaries of any jurisdictional waters and wetlands present. Photographs representative of relevant site conditions will be taken.
