Management Plan for Listed Species
INTRODUCTION
This document provides a summary of onsite management activities proposed for
implementation on the Collier County Resource Recovery Park site. Management activities will
take place within the proposed preserve areas and will benefit a number of listed species,
including Red Cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides Borealis), Big Cypress Fox Squirrel (Sciurus Niger
Avicennia), Eastern Indigo Snake (Drymarchon Corals Couperi), And Gopher Tortoise (Gopherus
Polyphemus).
PROJECT LOCATION
The Collier County Resource Recovery Park site is located in portions of Section 25,Township 49
South, Range 26 East, Collier County, Florida. Specifically, it is situated north of the Collier
County landfill, east of the Golden Gate Canal\Golden Gate Estates Unit 28, south of the
Hideout golf course, and west of Garland Road. See Figure 1 below.

Management Plan for Listed Species
DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT
The purpose of Resource Recovery Park is to construct a collection and transfer site adjacent to
the existing landfill that will provide for resource recovery and recycling. Specifically, the solid
waste recovery facility will include handling and/or processing of materials such as tires, glass,
paper, plastics, storm debris, construction debris, and construction demolition debris.
Processing of these materials will keep them in the recycle stream and prevent them from
being buried within the landfill. The proposed project is being constructed because the existing
landfill facilities will not meet the needs of the surrounding area in the next 25 years.
Construction and operation of the proposed facility will extend the projected life span of the
landfill operation to at least 50 years. Currently, existing materials collected in the County that
qualify for recycling are shipped to Pembroke Pines for processing. Having this facility in Collier
County will prevent the fiscal and environmental impacts of shipping these materials across the
State.
EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS
The Resource Recovery Park Site has the following surrounding land uses:

LAND PROTECTION
A Conservation Easement will be placed over the preserved lands and granted to Florida
Department of Environmental Protection with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) included
as a third party to the agreement.
INITIAL MAINTENANCE AND MITIGATION ACTIVITIES
Collier County will be responsible for 5 years following the initial exotic removal and site
preparation activities, external fencing of the property, burn plans and prescribed burn
activities, mowing, vegetative monitoring, and wildlife monitoring
LONG-TERM MAINTENANCE
Collier County will be responsible for long term management activities, with the assistance of
Conservation Collier, FWC, or FWS to implement and manage prescribed burns, mowing, exotic
removal and maintenance as needed.
Annual costs will be estimated following the initial maintenance activities to set up an escrow
account or similar financial mechanism to ensure that the costs of management the lands in
perpetuity will be met.
MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES BY SPECIES
The following section provides biology and proposed management activities for each affected
species.
Red Cockaded Woodpecker(RCW) -�•.�.
•
Biology
The RCW is listed as a Species of Special Concern (SSC) by the *"
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and as `` '
jj
endangered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) (Sullivan
2004, 35 Federal Register [FR) 16047). The RCW is 8.5 inches long
with black and white horizontal stripes on its back and a large 4
unbroken white cheek patch (Jackson 1994). It has a black cap and
stripe on each side of the black cap. Adult males weigh about 1.6
11
ounces and may be distinguished from females by the presence of t
a small tuft of red feathers (cockade) on the sides of the head. ifr
Adult females weigh less than males averaging 1.48 ounces (City
Gate HCP).
RCWs forage on pine trees for insects, spiders, and other
invertebrates. For foraging, they use a variety of pine species
throughout their range. In this region of Florida, RCWs spend
�Y
about 10% of their foraging time in cypress habitats and the T
EXHIBIT 0,* 6

remainder on pines. Females forage more frequently on the bole (trunk), while males make
greater use of the limbs, cones, and twigs. Thus, males forage higher in the tree compared to
females. Both sexes forage primarily on trees greater than 15 years of age and 4 inches or
larger in diameter. Larger and older pines are preferred foraging sites, although foraging may
occur on younger pines(City Gate HCP).
Project Region
The occurrence of RCWs in the vicinity of County Road 951 was first evaluated by the FWC in
the late 1980s and included about 27 occupied clusters. Since then that population has
declined and now accounts for about 8% of the south Florida woodpecker groups extending
from Avon Park to the Big Cypress National Preserve (BCNP) (Wood and Wenner 1983;
DeLotelle 2004) (Figure 4). The population on the Picayune Strand State Forest (PSSF) has
increased recently as a result of cavity augmentation and bird translocation (DeLotelle, Folk).
(Figure 4) details the current RCW clusters within the BCNP, PSSF, and the North Belle Meade
(NBM).

Past management practices in the Naples area using small, on-site preserves and limited
management appear to have been a failure as indicated by the population declines observed in
the 1990s, including the complete extirpation of groups west of Collier Boulevard. (City Gate
HCP).
Within the vicinity of the Collier County Resource Recovery Park (CCRRP), there are four (4)
remaining active RCW clusters in the North Belle Meade (NBM). (Figure 5) shows the CCRRP's
location in relation to the clusters in the NBM. The Hideout cluster located approximately one
mile north of the property has a roosting male RCW, but has produced no breeding activity.
Three clusters, the Rocco cluster, the Hussey East, and Hussey West are breeding clusters that
have produced fledglings in recent years. As part of a 2009 Incidental Take Permit, the final
RCW located on the City Gate property to the west of the CCRRP was relocated to the PSSF.

The CCRRP site and its vicinity have been extensively surveyed for cavity trees in an effort to
locate additional breeding clusters in the NBM. No additional cavities have been observed on
the subject property or its vicinity in annual surveys conducted by DeLotelle & Guthrie going
back to 2003 and most recently by Wild Folk, Ecotone Environmental, and Boylan
Environmental Consultants. All parties are confident that the property does not contain
inactive or active RCW cavity trees.

Project Impacts
The CCRRP property does contain approximately 164.06 acres of pine flatwoods, 132.31 acres
of mixed pine and cypress or cypress communities that likely provide foraging habitat for RCW
clusters located to the north and east of the site. Most of the potential foraging habitat on the
property is of very low quality for RCW. Mid-story and groundcover are dense and severely
overgrown with a mix of cabbage palm, pine saplings, myrsine, and various exotics such as
Brazilian pepper and ear leaf acacia.
Red Cockaded Woodpecker Management Activities
For mitigation for impacts to low quality RCW foraging habitat, the applicant is proposing
mitigation onsite. Approximately 166.53 acres of low quality foraging habitat will be preserved
onsite (approximately 68.20 acres of pine flatwoods, 98.33 acres of mixed pine and cypress).
The intent is to manage these habitats for RCW in order to transform them into quality foraging
habitat and the pine fiatwoods into potential nesting habitat.
The following is a basic framework for what the onsite work for RCW management will include:
See (Figure 6)for specific locations.
1. Removal of invasive, exotic vegetation.
2. Develop and implement a controlled burn program within the preserve.
3. Installation of fire lines utilizing best management practices to minimize impacts to
mature trees, habitat and wildlife populations.
4. Control hardwoods, mid story vegetation, and excessive pines in the preserve through
the use of mechanical or chemical methods or through the use of prescribed fire so that
the density guidelines contained in Appendix 5 of the RCW Recovery Plan (USFWS 2003)
are met. An exception to the recovery plan will be preservation of existing snag trees as
potential roost sites for the bonneted bat.
5. Installing and maintaining artificial cavities within the pine flatwoods, which are
currently unoccupied nesting habitat. The proposed preserve on the CCRRP is perfectly
situated between the isolated RCW group on the Conservation Collier Nancy Payton
preserve to the north and the City Gate mitigation parcel cluster (ROCCO) to the east.
Establishing a new nesting group at this location would provide roosting and nesting
cavities for fledglings from the RCW groups in the North Belle Meade which would
otherwise have no place to roost within NBM (Monica Folk, personal communication).
6. Monitoring and reporting of the status of the recruitment cluster.

Figure 6.Management Activities Overview.
All of these activities will provide an immediate RCW net conservation benefit and will benefit
all the other species outlined in this plan. The following is a more detailed description of each
activity:
1. Removal of invasive, exotic vegetation.
The initial mitigation activities for the CCRRP Preserves will include the eradication of
melaleuca and other exotic vegetation as identified by FLEPPC 2012. The limits of the
preserve areas will be flagged in the field prior to exotic removal activities. Eradication
methods will consist of mechanical removal, cutting and stump treatment of all woody
exotic species, foliar treatment of all saplings and/or herbaceous exotics species, and/or
hand pulling. All treated woody vegetation will either be stacked within the preserve,
mulched in place, and/or removed from preserve.
A technician that is licensed to apply herbicide in natural and aquatic areas by Florida
Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) will supervise activities. All
tree stumps that are cut and ground with the machinery will be treated with a U.S.
EXH I B I I L/ Page 12 of 26

COLLIER COUNTY RESOURCE RECOVERY PARK
Management Plan for Listed Species
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approved herbicide and visual tracer dye. Any
accumulated trash and refuse will be hand removed from preserve area.
For areas requiring mechanical removal, a low ground pressure posi-track will be utilized
to mechanically remove exotic vegetation to limit soil disturbance. A mulched layer will
remain to limit exotic regrowth from exposed open areas. Mechanical eradication will
be utilized in areas where exotic vegetation exceeds 50%coverage. Mechanical clearing
limits will be flagged in the field. Areas mechanically cleared of exotics will be re-
contoured to natural grade if necessary. Mechanical work will be conducted only during
times of dry soil conditions to minimize ground disturbance. Mechanical clearing limits
may vary as a result of soil conditions or other limiting factors. All areas to be
mechanically cleared of exotic vegetation will follow the same pre-construction clearing
procedures outlined above in order to protect potential fox squirrel nests.
Removal of these invasive plant species will reduce existing fuel loads and thereby
temperature of the initial prescribed fire, and make possible the restoration of the
natural fire regime to these habitats and benefit a multitude of plant and animal species,
particularly the RCW and the Florida panther, but also the white-tailed deer(Odocoileus
virginianus), Big Cypress fox squirrel (Sciurus niger avicennia),gopher tortoise(Gopherus
polyphemus), and other upland fauna.
2. Develop and implement a controlled burn program within the preserve.
With DOF assistance, a fire management plan will be created. If necessary it will be
coordinated with other local qualified agencies for review and approval. Due to the
existing County well field that surrounds the proposed prescribed burn area, extensive
coordination with Collier County Public Utilities will be necessary. The plan must include
the following elements: purpose and measurable objectives, description of the burn
unit, map of the burn unit, weather factors, safety concerns, fuel conditions, season and
time of day, smoke screening, publicity, legal requirements, firing plan, equipment and
personnel, contingencies, control and mop-up, declaring the fire out and evaluation and
monitoring.
3. Installation of fire lines utilizing best management practices to minimize impacts to
mature trees, habitat and wildlife populations.
The perimeter of the proposed burn unit (as shown in Figure 6) is clearly delineated by
the surrounding well easements. Fire lines may be necessary to break the proposed
burn area into more manageable pieces or to protect pump areas and well equipment.
Before clearing any vegetation, permits must be received from the Collier County

down to soil and will go around all mature pine trees; they will be a maximum of 8-10
feet wide.
4. Control hardwoods, mid story vegetation, and excessive pines in the preserve through
the use of mechanical or chemical methods or through the use of prescribed fire so
that the density guidelines contained in Appendix 5 of the RCW Recovery Plan (USFWS
2003)are met.
Reduce coverage of overgrown mid story vegetation, including pine saplings, cabbage
palm, and excessively tall saw palmetto. Goals will be to mechanically or manually
reduce cabbage palms to approximately 4 per acre and within 100 feet of potential
cavity trees before any controlled burn. Saw palmetto greater than 3 feet in height or
that surround potential cavity trees should be reduced before any controlled burn.
Reduction may be accomplished by manual or mechanical means and may include
thinning of diseased pine trees through logging. An exception to the recovery plan will
be preservation of existing snag trees as potential roost sites for the bonneted bat.
5. Installing and maintaining artificial cavities within the pine flatwoods, which are
currently unoccupied nesting habitat.
The proposed preserve on the CCRRP is perfectly situated between the isolated RCW
group on the Conservation Collier Nancy Payton preserve to the north and the City Gate
mitigation parcel cluster (ROCCO) to the east. Establishing a new nesting group at this
location would provide roosting and nesting cavities for fledglings from the RCW groups
in the North Belle Meade which would otherwise have no place to roost within NBM
(Monica Folk, personal communication). A new recruitment cluster on the CCRRP
property will be established in the area of pine flatwoods outlined in yellow on (Figure
6). Selection of specific trees and cavity installation would be completed by a contractor
approved for artificial cavity installation. At least 4 artificial cavities will be installed in
suitable slash pines within the preserve.
6. Monitoring and Reporting
Monitoring of the recruitment cluster will be conducted during the reproductive season
(April-July), late summer(August-September) and mid-winter(January-February) for five
years following cavity installation. The cluster will be resurveyed to determine the
number and status (occupied, abandoned, and start-hole tree)of each cavity tree. Each
cavity will be visually inspected to determine if RCWs are using it. Maintenance may be
required on cavities that leak or contain debris from other species. A Treetop II Nest
Peeper will be used to inspect cavities for leaks or use by other species at least once a
year. All cavity trees will be marked with white paint, new identification numbers, and
located by Global Positioning System for proper documentation. Any cavities that leak
or have otherwise deteriorated will be replaced. Additional cleanup will be conducted
around new replacement cavity trees as needed.

Florida Bonneted Bat(Eumops floridanus)
Biology (Excerpts taken from Federal Register, Vol. 78, No. 191 "Endangered and Threatened
Wildlife and Plant; Endangered Species Status for the Florida Bonneted Bat.)
The Florida Bonneted Bat was listed as endangered by the USFWS on November 1, 2013. The
bonneted bat is a member of the Molossidae family and is the largest bat species in Florida.
The name "bonneted" bat originates from their large broad ears that project forward over the
eyes.
Range
Southern portion of Florida, except the Florida Keys.
Habitat
Habitat for the bonneted bat consists mainly of foraging areas and roosting sites. No active
natural roosts have been identified or confirmed to date. Bonneted bats are closely associated
with forested areas because of their tree-roosting habits. Evidence suggests that they do use
tree cavities for roosting. They seem to be more closely associated with wet habitats such as
wet prairies, cypress stands, and hydric pine flatwoods.
Project Impacts
The CCRRP property does contain approximately 164.06 acres of pine flatwoods, 132.31 acres
of mixed pine and cypress or cypress communities that may provide foraging or roosting
habitat for bonneted bats. Most of the potential foraging habitat on the property is likely of
very low quality for bat due to its reduced hydrology and dense\overgrown nature. Mid-story
and groundcover are dense and severely overgrown with a mix of cabbage palm, pine saplings,
myrsine, and various exotics such as Brazilian pepper and ear leaf acacia.
Florida Bonneted Bat Management Activities
For mitigation for impacts to possible bonneted bat roosting and foraging habitat, the applicant
is proposing mitigation onsite. Approximately 166.53 acres of (currently) low quality forested
habitat will be preserved onsite (approximately 68.20 acres of pine flatwoods, 98.33 acres of
mixed pine and cypress). The intent is to manage these habitats for RCW and bonneted bats in
order to transform them into quality habitat for both species.
The following is a basic framework for what the onsite management for bonneted bats will
include:
EXHIBIT _ C .
PagelSof2S

Management Plan for Listed Species
Land management activities for the bonneted bat will match those being completed for RCW.
See (Figure 6)for specific locations.
1. Removal of invasive, exotic vegetation.
2. Develop and implement a controlled burn program within the preserve.
3. Installation of fire lines utilizing best management practices to minimize impacts to
mature trees=habitat and wildlife populations.
4. Control hardwoods, mid story vegetation, and excessive pines in the preserve through
the use of mechanical or chemical methods or through the use of prescribed fire so that
the density guidelines contained in Appendix 5 of the RCW Recovery Plan (USFWS 2003)
are met. An exception to the recovery plan will be preservation of existing snag trees as
potential roost sites for the bonneted bat.
5. Preserve existing snap trees located within the preserves in order to maintain potential
roost sites for the bonneted bat.
6. Install two bat houses within the preserve as potential roost locations for bats.
All of these activities will provide an immediate bonneted bat net conservation benefit and will
benefit all the other species outlined in this plan. See the RCW sections for detailed
descriptions of land management activities that will apply to both species. The following is a
more detailed description of bonneted bat specific activities(#5, ):
5. Installing and maintaining at least two bat houses within the CCRRP preserve areas.
At least two bat houses will be installed within the CCRRP preserves. The applicant will
consult with Fly by Night, Inc. (www.flybynightinc.org) regarding exact specifications and
placement of the houses on the property. The bat houses will be maintained according
accepted best management practices for bats as outlined by Fly by Night.
6. Monitoring and Reporting
Installed bat houses will be monitored annually for 5 years. Houses will be checked for
activity and determinations will be made for any maintenance that might be necessary.
Annual Property Data Reports will be submitted to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for
5 years (in concert with RCW reporting). These reports will include details on any
habitat and land management activities proposed management\maintenance activities
for the following year.
Big Cypress Fox Squirrel (Sciurus niger avicennia)
Biology
The Big Cypress Fox Squirrel (Sciurus niger avicennia) is one of three fox squirrel sub-species
found in Florida. It weighs approximately one to three pounds and averages 13 inches in body
length (minus tail length). Their bushy tail can be up to 14 inches long. This size makes them
noticeably larger than the more common gray squirrel. Fox squirrels are highly variable in color;
from tan and reddish orange to black. Often the nose, front toes, and ear tips are white.

Life History ,
Fox Squirrels are usually active during the day and build nests not 1 ° • .
only for breeding, but for resting or sleeping. Leaf or stripped bark ' r' .i
nests may be found in pines, cypress, cabbage palms, and .mela leuca. They may also nest in tree hollows and bromeliad t :/t clusters. Litters of approximately 2 to 4 young are produced each A .;40,,,
year. The young are weaned at about 2 to 3 months of age. L . '_
Project Impacts
No Big Cypress fox squirrels or signs of fox squirrels were observed on the subject property.
The development area of the project will be cleared for construction so precautions will be
taken in the event that fox squirrels are present on the property at that time.
Big Cypress Fox Squirrel Management Activities
The main focus of this management plan is to prevent incidental take of fox squirrel nests
during construction activities and to maintain Big Cypress Fox Squirrel habitat within the
preserves on the property after it is developed. This will be accomplished through a series of
pre-construction precautionary activities and by preserving suitable habitat onsite and
enhancing it through exotic removal.
Pre-Construction Precautions:
In order to prevent incidental take of fox squirrel nests during construction activities the
following precautions will be taken:
The limits of the preserves will be flagged or otherwise marked in the field prior to any
construction activities. Immediately prior to any construction or clearing, the area slated for
development will be re-surveyed for fox squirrel nests. If no nests are found, the clearing will
be allowed to commence. If any nests are observed, buffers of 125 feet will maintained around
each nest tree until the nests are found to be inactive or abandoned. In order to consider the
EXHIBIT __C" Page 17 of 26

nest inactive or abandoned, it will be observed on 3 consecutive days during the morning or
evening hours. If no squirrels or sign of activity are documented in the 3 days, FWC will be
contacted and the tree containing the nest will be removed and the clearing of the area will
commence.
Preservation and Enhancement:
The proposed preserve\enhancement areas are shown in Figure 6. Specific enhancement
activities are outlined in the RCW Management Activities section above.
Perpetual Management:
Management activities will ensure that all preserve areas are maintained free of exotic plants in
perpetuity. This is achieved by establishing a scheduled program to maintain the site free of
exotic plants. The preserves will be evaluated on an annual or semi-annual basis for exotic
vegetation. Exotics will be removed as necessary to ensure that exotic species will constitute no
more than 0 percent of total cover.
Any future changes to the fox squirrel management activities outlined above will be submitted
to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) for approval prior to
implementation.
Eastern Indigo Snake(Drymarchon Corals Couperi)
Biology(Excerpt taken from City Gate HCP, 2009)
The eastern indigo snake is listed as threatened by the FWC and as threatened by the USFWS
(Sullivan 2004, 43 FR 4028). The eastern indigo snake is the longest North American snake,
reaching 102 inches in length. The overall coloration is iridescent black, with a throat varying in
color from red to white. Currently, only Georgia and Florida support eastern indigo snake
populations, although there are historical records for Mississippi, Alabama, and southern South
Carolina. Although, occurring in all 67 Florida counties, this snake is local in its distribution
occurring only in suitable habitat areas (Moler 1992). This species may be found in a range of
habitats (wetlands to uplands) and home ranges can be as large as 247 acres. It frequently uses
the burrows of gopher tortoises as winter shelters although less so in central and south Florida.
Breeding occurs from November to April with eggs (n = 5 - 10) laid in May or June. Eastern
indigo snakes feed on a variety of vertebrate species, including the eastern diamondback
rattlesnake (Crotalus adamanteus). The decline of this species is the result of over collection
for the pet trade and habitat degradation and fragmentation. No eastern indigo snakes were
observed on the project site.
Project Impacts
No eastern indigo snakes have been observed on site, but they may occur in association
with gopher tortoise burrows or in other habitats on the site. Indigo snakes are relatively
secretive by nature and usually occur in low density; so their visibility is low. The surveys
of likely habitat and for tortoises revealed no indigo snakes.

Eastern Indigo Snake Management Activities
The CCRRP will follow the standard protection measures for the eastern indigo snake as
outlined below.
STANDARD PROTECTION MEASURES FOR THE EASTERN INDIGO SNAKE
1. An eastern indigo snake protection/education plan shall be developed by the applicant or
requestor for all construction personnel to follow. The plan shall be provided to the Service for
review and approval at least 30 days prior to any clearing activities. The educational materials
for the plan may consist of a combination of posters, videos, pamphlets, and lectures (e.g., an
observer trained to identify eastern indigo snakes could use the protection/education plan to
instruct construction personnel before any clearing activities occur). Informational signs should
be posted throughout the construction site and along any proposed access road to contain the
following information:
a. a description of the eastern indigo snake, its habits, and protection under Federal
Law;
b. instructions not to injure, harm, harass or kill this species;
c. directions to cease clearing activities and allow the eastern indigo snake sufficient
time to move away from the site on its own before resuming clearing; and,
d. telephone numbers of pertinent agencies to be contacted if a dead eastern indigo
snake is encountered. The dead specimen should be thoroughly soaked in water and
then frozen.
2. If not currently authorized through an Incidental Take Statement in association with a
Biological Opinion, only individuals who have been either authorized by a section 10(a)(1)(A)
permit issued by the Service, or by the State of Florida through the Florida Fish Wildlife
Conservation Commission (FWC) for such activities, are permitted to come in contact with an
eastern indigo snake.
3. An eastern indigo snake monitoring report must be submitted to the appropriate Florida
Field Office within 60 days of the conclusion of clearing phases. The report should be
submitted whether or not eastern indigo snakes are observed. The report should contain the
following information:
a. any sightings of eastern indigo snakes and
b. other obligations required by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission,
as stipulated in the permit.

Gopher Tortoise(Gopherus Polyphemus)
Biology (Excerpt taken from City Gate HCP, 2009)
The gopher tortoise is listed as a species of -, # ,
special concern by the FWC (Sullivan 2004) and
federally listed in Louisiana, Mississippi, and rat
Alabama (52 FR 25376). This large terrestrial
abilp
turtle can reach lengths up to 38 cm and is tan _ rt /�11
4,0 or brown in overall coloration. The gopher •Vh_a`~
tortoise occurs throughout the southeastern ' *y:
coastal plain in appropriate habitat (Diemer °'~
j
1992). The gopher tortoise is extant in all 67
counties of Florida; although, numbers are -
declining, especially in the southern peninsula � "�
where their distribution is limited and
fragmented by unsuitable habitat and increasing urbanization. The tortoise occupies habitats
with well-drained loose soil in which to excavate burrows, a low herbaceous ground cover for
forage (e.g., fire-maintained), and open sunlit sites for placing nests. Typical habitats include
sandhill, scrub, dry pine flatwoods, and disturbed habitats. The gopher tortoise digs extensive
burrows, which provides refuge for 300 invertebrate and 60 vertebrate species. Gopher
tortoises breed from mid-May to mid-June. One clutch, averaging six eggs, is produced
annually and the incubation period varies from 80 to 110 days. Gopher tortoises are herbivores,
which forage on a variety of grasses, legumes and fruits. Habitat destruction is the primary
threat to the gopher tortoise; however, a respiratory disease has recently become an important
threat, too.
Project Impacts
A species survey was originally conducted in January and February, 2012. The site contained
approximately 10 active 11 inactive burrows and 4 abandoned burrows. Construction of the
project's main water management lake will require impacts to tortoise burrows. A permit to
relocate impacted tortoises will be acquired which will allow any tortoises impacted within the
development footprint to be relocated into the upland preserve area located in the northwest
portion of the preserve. Gopher tortoises not impacted by development will remain. This area
is proposed to be preserved, and will have active land management that will benefit the habitat
of the tortoise. No construction activities will take place in this area.
Gopher Tortoise Management Activities
Pre-Construction
Prior to relocation activities, management and enhancement activities as outlined in the RCW
Management Activities section above will occur to prepare the recipient area for the tortoise.
Once a relocation permit has been acquired, the property will be resurveyed for gopher
tortoises no longer than 4 weeks prior to site clearing. The recipient area within the upland
EaX1 I B IT Page 22 of 26

Management Plan for Listed Species
preserve area will be staked. Installation of the temporary tortoise fencing will be installed prior
to construction.
Chicken wire will be installed and a portion of the fence will be trenched underground. The silt
fence will be installed to the outside of the chicken wire. Following installation of the fencing,
the area will be re-inspected by county staff, and then a vegetation permit for minor clearing to
excavate the tortoises will be issued.
Excavation and Relocation
The physical relocation will be done by a qualified Gopher Tortoise Agent and will occur as
follows: A flexible hose will be snaked down the burrow in order to track the direction of the
burrow. A backhoe will carefully excavate soil material until just before reaching the burrow.
Excavation will then occur manually to ensure no injury to the tortoise. All captured tortoises
will be measured and their scutes will be notched according to the prearranged numbering
system per the recipient site requirements, and then placed in crates and moved over to the
gopher tortoise on-site recipient area.
In addition, commensal species within burrows will also be safely relocated to the on-site
preserve. If any Eastern indigo Snakes are encountered, they will be allowed to vacate the area
prior to continuation of work.
Note: "tortoises shall not be captured / relocated on days for which the overnight low
temperature for that day and the two consecutive days thereafter is forecasted by the U.S.
National Weather Service to be below 50°F. This 3-day window of milder overnight
temperatures is to allow the relocated tortoises to settle into the recipient site".
Post-Construction
When construction on-site is completed,the tortoise fence will be removed.
On-site Gopher Tortoise Preserve Area Management
1. Exotic Vegetation Removal, Non-native Vegetation, and Nuisance or Invasive Plant Control
The proposed preserve\enhancement areas are shown in Figure 6. Specific enhancement
activities are outlined in the RCW Management Activities section above.
2. Maintenance:
The tortoise preserve area will be walked and inspected at least once yearly for the presence of
exotic vegetation. Every two years the preserve will be evaluated for manual
trimming. Preserve trimming shall be conducted prior to the start of the rainy season; this will
promote new growth of the recently trimmed material. Trimming will only occur as necessary
to maintain the open space required for the gopher tortoises inhabiting the preserve area. The
maintenance program will be conducted in perpetuity. Maintenance shall be the responsibility
of the developer, or their successor. The tortoise preserve area shall be maintained in its
natural state and must be kept free of refuse and debris.

PHASING OF MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES
The initial exotic removal and maintenance schedule, including burn and mowing activities, may
be phased within the preserve to stagger burn and maintenance activities.,(Figure 9).
Phase 1 will include western half of areas north of the well field access riad. These areas
include the intensely managed RCW Management and Gopher tortoise recipient area. These
mitigation activities will coincide with impacts to the phase 2 development area.
Phase 2 will include the remaining wetlands on the eastern half of the preserve located north of
the well field access road. These mitigation activities will coincide with impacts to the phase 2
development area.
Phase 3 will include the upland and wetland areas south of the well field access road and
adjacent to the development area. It is anticipated Phase 3 would be initiated following initial
clearing of the remaining development boundary(phases 3, 4, & 5) for access purposes.
TIMING AND SCHEDULING
The following is a more detailed description of the timing each activity as it relates to the
project construction:
1. Monitoring and Reporting
a.) Vegetative Monitoring - Baseline monitoring will occur prior to the onset of any
management activities. The Time-zero monitoring report for the management
activities will be completed within 60 days of the completion of exotic removal.
Annual reports will be submitted following the Time-zero for 5 years or until the
goals of the mitigation activities have been met.
b.) Wildlife Monitoring — Prior to site clearing within the development area, a
Gopher Tortoise Survey will be conducted over that phase of the development
area. In addition, a Fox Squirrel nest survey will be conducted prior to clearing;
to determine is any actively nesting Fox Squirrels are present within the clearing
area. Finally, a survey will be conducted for cavities that might harbor bonneted
bats.
c.) Semi-annual RCW Monitoring Surveys will be conducted in accordance with the
FWS Protocol during both the breeding season (April 15-June 15) and the non-
nesting season or fall (October 15- December 15) following installation of the
artificial cavities. Reports will be submitted following the completion of each
Survey event.
2. Removal of invasive,exotic vegetation.
The initial mitigation activities for the CCRRP Preserves will include the eradication of
melaleuca and other exotic vegetation as identified by FLEPPC 2012. This activity is
anticipated to commence upon receipt of all development approvals and be phased
'EXHIBIT C�__

..._71,q_c f
16E2 9
COLLIER COUNTY RESOURCE RECOVERY PARK
Management Plan for Listed Species
according to development impacts (see phasing outlined above). Maintenance events
will occur at a minimum of twice a year after initial treatment, and continue for a
minimum of five years. If vegetative monitoring data shows additional treatments are
necessary,the maintenance and exotic removal schedule may be revised to increase the
number'of events until target species are controlled. After five years, if exotic removal
activities are successful,the exotic removal would then be continued on an annual or as-
needed basis.
3. Mid-Story Vegetation Thinning and Fuel Reduction
Reduce coverage of overgrown mid story vegetation, including pine saplings, cabbage
palm, and excessively tall saw palmetto, may be accomplished by manual or mechanical
means and may include thinning of diseased pine trees through logging. It is anticipated
these activities would occur concurrent with the exotic removal, or shortly thereafter.
Reduction of mid-story canopy coverage within the RCW Management Unit will occur
prior to any controlled burn in order to reduce the fuel load, and to maintain the cover
requirements and management goals. These activities will coincide with phase 1
development impacts.
4. Fire Lines and Mowing
Following the initial exotic removal treatment and thinning of overgrown mid-story, fire
breaks will be installed where needed in accordance with an approved Fire
Management Plan in accordance with Division of Forestry practices.
Mowing will occur in upland areas surrounding the development site, areas surrounding
existing structures and wells, and when weather conditions prohibit the use of
controlled burns.
5. Prescribed Fire
Controlled burns will only occur within the proposed burn management area, when
conditions are appropriate.To mimic a natural fire regime, timing will likely occur during
the late spring or summer (May — July) at intervals appropriate for each vegetative
community. Estimated frequency of burn events will be two to five years.
6. Installing and maintaining artificial cavities\bat houses
Following initial management activities within the phase 1 mitigation area, including
exotic removal, mid-story thinning, and prescribed fire or mowing, the artificial cavities
will be installed within the preserve.
