14. AVOID NESTING BIRDS DURING CONSTRUCTION
Prior to issuance of the any demolition, grading and building permit, indicate the following
on all construction plans:
a. Demolition, construction, ground-disturbing, and tree removal/pruning activities shall be
scheduled to be completed prior to nesting season (February 1 through August 31), if
feasible.
b. If demolition, construction, ground-disturbing, or tree removal/pruning activities occur
during the nesting season (February 1 and August 31), preconstruction surveys shall be
conducted as follows:
i. No more than 7 days prior to the start of demolition, construction, ground-
disturbing, or tree removal/pruning activities, in order to identify any active nests
with eggs or young birds on the site and surrounding area within 100 feet of
construction or tree removal activities.
ii. Preconstruction surveys shall be repeated at 14-day intervals until demolition,
construction, ground-disturbing, or tree removal/pruning activities have been
initiated in the area, after which surveys can be stopped. As part of the
20125 Cedar Tree Lane Page 5 of 12
RM-2024-001
preconstruction survey(s), the surveyor shall inspect all trees and other possible
nesting habitats in, and immediately adjacent to, the construction areas for active
nests, while ensuring that they do not disturb the nests as follows:
1) For projects that require the demolition or construction one single-family
residence, ground disturbing activities affecting areas of up to 500 square feet,
or the removal of up to three trees, the property owner or a tree removal
contractor, if necessary, is permitted to conduct the preconstruction surveys to
identify if there are any active nests. If any active nests with eggs or young
birds are identified, the project applicant shall retain a qualified ornithologist
or biologist to identify protective measures.
2) For any other demolition, construction and ground disturbing activity or the
removal of four or more trees, a qualified ornithologist or biologist shall be
retained by the project applicant to conduct the preconstruction surveys.
iii. If the preconstruction survey does not identify any active nests with eggs or young
birds that would be affected by demolition, construction, ground-disturbing or tree
removal/pruning activities, no further mitigating action is required. If an active nest
containing eggs or young birds is found sufficiently close to work areas to be
disturbed by these activities, their locations shall be documented, and the qualified
ornithologist or biologist shall identify protective measures to be implemented
under their direction until the nests no longer contain eggs or young birds.
iv. Protective measures may include, but are not limited to, establishment of clearly
delineated exclusion zones (i.e., demarcated by identifiable fencing, such as orange
construction fencing or equivalent) around each nest location as determined by the
qualified ornithologist or biologist, taking into account the species of birds nesting,
their tolerance for disturbance and proximity to existing development. In general,
exclusion zones shall be a minimum of 300 feet for raptors and 75 feet for passerines
and other birds. The active nest within an exclusion zone shall be monitored on a
weekly basis throughout the nesting season to identify signs of disturbance and
confirm nesting status. The radius of an exclusion zone may be increased by the
qualified ornithologist or biologist, if project activities are determined to be
adversely affecting the nesting birds. Exclusion zones may be reduced by the
qualified ornithologist or biologist only in consultation with California Department
of Fish and Wildlife. The protection measures and buffers shall remain in effect until
the young have left the nest and are foraging independently or the nest is no longer
active.
v. A final report on nesting birds and raptors, including survey methodology, survey
date(s), map of identified active nests (if any), and protection measures (if required),
20125 Cedar Tree Lane Page 6 of 12
RM-2024-001
shall be prepared by the qualified ornithologist or biologist and submitted to the
Director of Community Development or his or her designee, through the appropriate
permit review process (e.g., demolition, construction, tree removal, etc.), and be
completed to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director prior to the
start of demolition, construction, ground-disturbing, or tree removal/pruning
activities.

d. The protection procedures to follow should construction crews discover cultural
resources during project-related earthwork, include the following:
i. All soil disturbing work within 25 feet of the find shall cease.
ii. The project applicant shall retain a qualified archaeologist to provide and implement
a plan for survey, subsurface investigation, as needed, to define the deposit, and
assessment of the remainder of the site within the project area to determine whether
the resource is significant and would be affected by the project.
iii. Any potential archaeological or tribal cultural resources found during construction
activities shall be recorded on appropriate California Department of Parks and
Recreation forms by a qualified archaeologist. If the resource is a tribal cultural
resource, the consulting archaeologist shall consult with the appropriate tribe, as
determined by the Native American Heritage Commission, to evaluate the
significance of the resource and to recommend appropriate and feasible avoidance,
testing, preservation or mitigation measures, in light of factors such as the
20125 Cedar Tree Lane Page 7 of 12

deceased Native American.
e. The Most Likely Descendant has 48 hours following access to the project site to make
recommendations or preferences regarding the disposition of the remains. If the Most
Likely Descendant does not make recommendations within 48 hours after being allowed
access to the project site, the owner shall, with appropriate dignity, reinter the remains
in an area of the property secure from further disturbance and provide documentation
about this determination and the location of the remains to the NAHC and the City of
Cupertino. Alternatively, if the owner does not accept the Most Likely Descendant’s
recommendations, the owner or the descendent may request mediation by the NAHC.
Construction shall halt until the mediation has concluded.
