prior to each phase of construction. If an active nest (one containing eggs, nestlings, or dependent <br />fledglings) is found, an avoidance buffer shall be determined and demarcated by a qualified <br />biologist using flagging and stakes or construction fencing. The size of the buffer shall be <br />sufficient to avoid direct impacts to the nest, eggs, young, and adults, and would depend upon the <br />species and the proposed work activity. No work activity shall occur within the buffer until the <br />biologist confirms that the nest is no longer active. Construction personnel shall be instructed on <br />the sensitivity of the area. If Project activities must occur within the buffer, they shall be conducted <br />at the discretion and under the supervision of the biologist. The qualified biologist will record the <br />results of the recommended protective measures described above to document compliance with <br />applicable State and federal laws pertaining to protection of native birds. All monitoring reports <br />and compliance records will be submitted to the City of Santa Ana. <br />Note the measures above include a reference, provided here for additional context: <br />National Park Service (NPS). 1983.
