6:40 P.M. 9. Carpinteria Bluffs Biological Resources and Environmentally Sensitive Habitat Report and Mapping

 

 This report was prepared for the City of Carpinteria to determine the presence of biological resources and to map Environmentally Sensitive Habitat (ESH) areas on the Carpinteria Bluffs. The researchers identified and mapped ESH areas based on research of biological resource records, historical and recent photographs, consultations with other local biologists, and on-site surveys. ESH designations on the entire site are mapped at a scale of 1 inch = 200 feet. Figure 5 of the report is a reduced version of this map. Further detailed information of ESH areas is provided in Maps 1-7 at a scale of approximately 1 inch = 100 feet.

The Carpinteria Bluffs, adjacent beach and near ocean waters support at least 128 species of birds, 10 native mammal species, and 4 amphibians or reptile species. Of these, approximately 97 bird species, 8 mammal species, and 3 species of amphibians and reptiles occur in areas designated as Environmentally Sensitive Habitat (ESH).

The land includes 132 acres of relatively level bluff top and 29 acres of steep cliffs and sandy beach. Approximately 35 acres are designated Environmentally Sensitive Habitat (ESH). These ESH areas include coastal bluff scrub, coastal sage scrub, riparian habitat, vernal wetland, and a small amount of degraded grassland. The coastline consisting of the harbor seal haulout, kelp bed and sand beach are also designated ESH.

The City is required to submit this mapping and report to the Executive Director of the Coastal Commission in order to fulfill the Coastal Commission’s conditional approval of the City Bluffs Master Open Space Program on November 12, 1996.
