ANIMALS

Fish

Tidewater goby Eucyclogobius newberryi

FE/-- Shallow lagoons and lower stream reaches.

Low. Although species is documented from Corte Madera Creek, records are historical. Currently thought to be extirpated from San Francisco Bay.

Steelhead-central California coast DPS Oncorhynchus mykiss irideus Critical Habitat designated

FT/-- Spawns and rears in coastal streams between the Russian River and Aptos Creek, as well as drainages of the SF and San Pablo Bays, where gravelly substrate and shaded riparian habitat occurs.

Coho salmon – Central California coast ESU Oncorhynchus kisutch Critical Habitat designated

FE/CE Accessible Bay Area and coastal rivers and streams with cover, cool water and sufficient dissolved oxygen. Require beds of loose, silt-free gravel for spawning.

Low. Although within the historical range of the species and Corte Madera Creek is designated as critical habitat for the species, coho salmon are currently considered extirpated in the San Francisco Bay/Sacramento – San Joaquin River system. Fish last seen in Corte Madera Creek in 1986 thought to be descendants of planted stock (Leidy, 2005).

PLANTS

Adobe sanicle Sanicula maritima

--/CR/1B.1 Chaparral, coastal prairie, meadows and seeps, valley and foothill grassland. Usually on clay or serpentinite soils.

Species Listed or Proposed for Listing (cont.)

PLANTS (cont.)

White-rayed pentachaeta Pentachaeta bellidiflora

FE/CE/1B.1 Grasslands, usually dry rocky or grassy slopes with serpentine soils; 115 to 2030 feet.

Low. Only marginally suitable grasslands occur at the site. Serpentine soils not present at site. Not observed in appropriately timed surveys (Zander Associates, 2010). Nearby populations are historical and documented as extirpated by CNDDB (2011).

San Francisco popcorn-flower Plagiobothrys diffusus

--/CE/1B.1 Coastal prairie and valley and foothill grassland.

Low. Although onsite grasslands retain a native component they are disturbed and generally dominated by non-native grasses. Therefore they represent only marginally suitable habitat.

Showy Indian clover Trifolium amoenum

FE/--/1B.2 Grasslands, sometimes serpentine soils; swales; 15 to 1840 feet.

Low. Only marginally suitable grasslands occur at the site. No serpentine soils occur onsite.

ANIMALS

Invertebrates

Monarch butterfly Danaus plexippus

--/* Wintering sites

only

Low. Eucalyptus occur in and around the hospital campus. However, no known wintering sites have been documented in the Marin General Hospital vicinity.

Mimic tryonia Tryonia imitator

--/* Found only in permanently submerged areas of coastal lagoons, estuaries, and salt marshes. Inhabits a variety of sediments and tolerates a wide range of salinities.

Moderate. Distribution poorly understood but may occur in Corte Madera Creek in the hospital vicinity.

Birds

Cooper’s hawk Accipiter cooperii

--/WL

3503.5

Commonly nests in conifers and riparian woodland but also known to nest in large trees in urban areas throughout the East Bay, especially near riparian corridors.

Low to moderate. Marginally suitable nesting habitat present in larger trees on the hospital grounds and on the slopes above. However, high levels of disturbance likely preclude nesting activity. One large stick nest observed in trees on the hospital grounds.

Animals (cont.) Birds (cont.)

Great egret Ardea alba

--/*

Rookeries only

Nest colonially in groves of trees. Rookery sites located near marshes, tide-flats, irrigated pastures, and margins of rivers and lakes.

Low. Likely to forage along Corte Madera Creek and in Creekside Marsh to the west of the project site. While suitable nesting habitat is available in large eucalyptus located at the hospital and in the vicinity, high levels of disturbance would preclude nesting activity. No rookeries are recorded in the immediate vicinity.

Great blue heron Ardea herodias

--/*

Rookeries only


Low. Likely to forage along Corte Madera Creek and in Creekside Marsh to the west of the project site. While suitable nesting habitat is available in large eucalyptus located at the hospital and in the vicinity, high levels of disturbance would preclude nesting activity. No rookeries are recorded in the immediate vicinity.

Great horned owl Bubo virginianus

--/3503.5 Often uses abandoned nests of corvids or squirrels; nests in large oaks, conifers, eucalyptus.

Low to moderate. Suitable nesting habitat occurs in large conifers and eucalyptus on and adjacent to the project site. However, regular high levels of disturbance likely preclude nesting. One large stick nest observed in trees on the hospital grounds (Zander Associates, 2010).

Red-tailed hawk Buteo jamaicensis

--/3503.5 Usually nests in large trees, often in woodland or riparian deciduous habitats. Increasing use of urban ‘woodlands’ for nesting purposes.

Low to moderate. Suitable nesting habitat occurs in large conifers and eucalyptus on and adjacent to the project site. However, regular disturbance due to human activities likely preclude nesting. One large stick nest observed in trees on the hospital grounds (Zander Associates, 2010).

Red-shouldered hawk Buteo lineatus

--/3503.5 Commonly nests in riparian corridors but becoming increasingly common in urban areas throughout the Bay Area, nesting in large trees. Forages over open grasslands and woodlands.

Low to moderate. Suitable nesting habitat occurs in large conifers and eucalyptus on and adjacent to the project site. However, regular high levels of disturbance due to human activities may preclude nesting. One large stick nest observed in trees on the hospital grounds (Zander Associates, 2010).

Northern harrier Circus cyaneus

--/CSC Mostly nests in emergent vegetation, wet meadows or near rivers and lakes, but may nest in grasslands away from water.

Low. While Creekside Marsh affords potential foraging habitat for the species the small size affords only marginally suitable nesting habitat.

Snowy egret Egretta thula

--/*

Rookeries only


Low. Observed foraging in Creekside Marsh to the west of the hospital. While suitable nesting habitat is available in large eucalyptus located at the hospital and surrounding areas, high levels of disturbance would likely preclude nesting activity. No rookeries are recorded in the immediate vicinity.

--/*

Rookeries only

Various wetland habitats, including salt, brackish, and freshwater marshes, swamps, streams, lakes, and agricultural fields. Nest in large trees, often with other herons or egrets.

Low. May forage along Corte Madera Creek and in Creekside Marsh. Although suitable nesting trees, such as large eucalyptus occur within the project area, the relatively high levels of disturbance likely preclude nesting. No rookeries documented nearby.

Mammals

Pallid bat Antrozous pallidus

--/CSC

Subject: Species List for Marin General Hospital Expansion Project

Dear: Ms. Lowe

We are sending this official species list in response to your June 19, 2012 request for information about endangered and threatened species. The list covers the California counties and/or U.S. Geological Survey 7½ minute quad or quads you requested.

Our database was developed primarily to assist Federal agencies that are consulting with us. Therefore, our lists include all of the sensitive species that have been found in a certain area and also ones that may be affected by projects in the area. For example, a fish may be on the list for

a quad if it lives somewhere downstream from that quad. Birds are included even if they only migrate through an area. In other words, we include all of the species we want people to consider

when they do something that affects the environment.

Please read Important Information About Your Species List (below). It explains how we made the list and describes your responsibilities under the Endangered Species Act.

Our database is constantly updated as species are proposed, listed and delisted. If you address

proposed and candidate species in your planning, this should not be a problem. However, we recommend that you get an updated list every 90 days. That would be September 17, 2012.

Please contact us if your project may affect endangered or threatened species or if you have any

questions about the attached list or your responsibilities under the Endangered Species Act. A list of Endangered Species Program contacts can be found here.
