EXHIBIT G <br />NEPA MITIGATION MEASURES <br />Per 40 CFR 1505.2(c) the following measures/conditions apply to the Project: <br />1.Mitigation Measure TCR-1: Retention of a Native American Monitor and Native <br />American Monitoring <br />Prior to ground disturbance activities, the Grantee will retain a Native American/Tribal monitor <br />from or approved by the Gabrieleño Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation (Kizh Nation or <br />Tribe). A Native American/Tribal monitor, compensated and contracted by the Grantee, shall be <br />provided the opportunity to monitor during earth disturbing activities. The Native American <br />monitor shall be retained prior to the commencement of any “ground-disturbing activity” for the <br />subject Project at all Project locations (i.e., both on-site and any off-site locations that are included <br />in the Project description and/or required in connection with the Project, such as public <br />improvement work). Ground disturbing activities shall include, but are not limited to, demolition, <br />pavement removal, potholing, auguring, grubbing, tree removal, boring, grading, excavation, <br />drilling, and trenching. A copy of the executed monitoring agreement shall be submitted to the <br />City of Santa Ana as the Responsible Entity prior to the commencement of any ground-disturbing <br />activity, or the issuance of any permit necessary to commence a ground-disturbing activity. <br />The Native American monitor shall be responsible for completing daily monitoring logs that will <br />provide descriptions of the relevant ground-disturbing activities, the type of construction activities <br />performed, locations of ground disturbing activities, soil types, cultural-related materials, and any <br />other facts, conditions, materials, or discoveries of significance to the Tribe. Monitor logs will <br />identify and describe any discovered TCRs, including but not limited to, Native American cultural <br />and historical artifacts, remains, places of significance, etc., (collectively, tribal cultural resources, <br />or “TCR”), as well as any discovered Native American (ancestral) human remains and burial <br />goods. Copies of the monitoring logs shall be provided to the City of Santa Ana upon written <br />request to the Tribe. <br />On-site tribal monitoring shall conclude upon the latter of the following: (1) written confirmation <br />to the Kizh Nation from a designated point of contact for the Grantee that all ground-disturbing <br />activities and phases that may involve ground-disturbing activities on the project site or in <br />connection with the project are complete; or (2) a determination and written notification by the <br />Kizh Nation to the City of Santa Ana that no future, planned construction activity and/or <br />development/construction phase at the Project site possesses the potential to impact TCRs. <br />Upon completion of all monitoring activities, the Kizh Nation shall prepare a comprehensive <br />monitoring report documenting the results of the monitoring effort and including the daily <br />monitoring logs for submittal to the City of Santa Ana and the South Central Coastal Information <br />Center. The monitoring report will be used to help inform the need for Native American <br />monitoring during future projects. <br />EXHIBIT 2
