Both types of habitat <br />areas are interpretive in form and do not function in a manner consistent with <br />natural habitat settings. The vegetation communities at Heritage Museum are <br />shown in Figure 15 and a listing of vegetation communities is presented in Table <br />16. <br />The monitoring well construction work site is highly disturbed and covered with <br />wood chips. Along the northern end of the site are a few immature ornamental <br />trees, The site did not contain suitable habitat to support special status plant or <br />special wildlife species. <br />North east of the monitoring well site are two existing riparian patches that are <br />separated by a rolling hill that has been restored with native vegetation. <br />On the rolling hill there is a scattering native vegetation that includes; California <br />sagebrush (Artemisia californica), California bush sunflower (Encefia calitomica), <br />Black Sage (Salvia roelifera), White Sage (Salvia apiana) and California <br />buckwheat (erigoonum fasciculatum). The site did not contain adequate amounts <br />of suitable habitat to support special status plant or special wildlife species. <br />Both, riparian patches at the Heritage Museum are dominated by Black Willow <br />(Salix gooddingii), and Mulefat (Baccharis salicifolia). There are small patches of <br />both Bulrush (Scirpus californicus), and Cattails (Typha latifolia) at the deepest, <br />wettest part of both patchs of riparian vegetation. A few species of non-native <br />trees are present including Brazilian Pepper (Schinus terobinthifolius), and <br />Eucalyptus. <br />Mid Basin Centennial Park &&n 4 14 1 Project Final EIR 5-43 <br />
