Alameda Whipsnake Modeled Habitat - ICF [ds3138]

Data Sources: CWHR (R053) modified to remove north of Sacramento River and the Peninsula because no CNDDB records are present in these areas. Includes East Contra Costa HCP/NCCP data (three types: core, perimeter core, and movement). Includes East Alameda County Conservation Strategy data. Also includes some specific watershed indicated by species expert Karen Swaim. Includes critical habitat without urban areas. In the rest of the CWHR study area, selected land-cover types of Chamise-Redshank Chaparral, Desert Scrub, Mixed Chaparral, and Coastal Scrub and attributed as Core Area. This area was further buffered by 500 feet and attributed as Perimeter Core. Perimeter Core was buffered by 1 mile and attributed as Movement. These methods are consistent with the East Contra Costa HCP/NCCP. From these three types, PGE subtracted urban and removed areas west of Highway 680 near Fremont based on current knowledge of the species distribution.
