Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 vii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ACI Sunbow, Inc. in partnership with Lennar Homes proposes construction of the multifamily residential community, the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project (Project), City of Chula Vista (City). The Project APE is located in Section 17 and 18 of Township 18 South and Range 1 West of the Imperial Beach, California 7.5-minute series United States Geological Survey quadrangle. The Project’s area of potential effects (APE) consists of the 135.7-acre parcel, while only the south eastern 67.5-acre portion constitutes the area of direct impact (ADI). The Project would construct within the ADI water and electrical undergrounding of utilities to the homes and community buildings. All utilities are planned to be tied into existing infrastructure at Olympic Parkway. The Project also includes the construction of community access roads on site, and access from Olympic Parkway. An in-house records search of the data housed at the South Coast Information Center indicated that no cultural resources have been previously identified within the Project APE. The record search included a 1-mile search buffer. A total of 82 cultural resources are located within the search buffer. These resources consist of three historic resources and 79 prehistoric resources (Confidential Appendix A). A field survey of the Project APE yielded no new cultural resources. A sacred lands file search with the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) has been requested and is pending response. Once the NAHC response is received, outreach letters to the tribes on the NAHC contact list will be sent out. The Project is subject to compliance with Assembly Bill (AB) 52 (PRC 21074) which requires consideration of impacts to “tribal cultural resources” as part of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) process. AB 52 requires the City of Chula Vista, lead agency responsible for CEQA compliance for the proposed Project, to notify any groups (who have requested notification) of the proposed Project who are traditionally or culturally affiliated with the geographic area of the Project. Dudek’s inventory Phase I cultural resources of the Project indicates that archaeologically there is low sensitivity for intact subsurface archaeological deposits. Given the close proximity outside of the Project site to other cultural resources there is potential for buried archaeological deposits. Therefore, monitoring is recommended for all initial ground disturbing activities. The monitoring archaeologist may reduce the monitoring schedule if the path of impact is clearly in disturbed contexts. Regional geological mapping indicates that the geological units present within the study area are (listed in order from youngest to oldest): young alluvial floodplain deposits, the San Diego Formation, and the Otay Formation, as confirmed by the museum record search results. The Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 viii museum records search results indicate that the study area is underlain by geological units ranging from high to low paleontological potential. A paleontological records search was requested from the San Diego Natural History Museum (SDNHM), and a letter was received in response on April 14, 2020, indicating that there are 14 fossil localities within a half-mile radius of the Project APE. All of the localities occur just north of the Project APE and were collected during past construction projects. Two of the localities are from the late Oligocene Otay Formation and 12 are from the late Pliocene to early Pleistocene San Diego Formation. Published geological maps and reports and unpublished reports were reviewed to identify geological units underlying the study area and their paleontological sensitivity or potential. The young alluvial floodplain deposits have low paleontological sensitivity on the surface, which increases to moderate with depth where they become old enough to have the potential to yield significant paleontological resources and the San Diego and Otay Formations have high paleontological sensitivity according to the SDNHM records search results and desktop geological and paleontological review. A paleontological mitigation program is recommended. Areas of the Project APE underlain by low sensitivity young alluvial floodplain deposits do not require paleontological mitigation on the surface; however, excavations beyond five feet deep require part-time paleontological monitoring as determined by the qualified paleontologist. Excavations into the San Diego and Otay Formations require full-time paleontological monitoring. Implementation of the paleontological monitoring program would be sufficient to reduce the impacts to less than significant.

The Project APE is located in Section 17 and 18 of Township 18 South and Range 1 West of the Imperial Beach, California 7.5-minute series United States Geological Survey quadrangle (Figure 1, Project Location). The Project APE is located at the western end of Poggi Canyon, occupying the southern slope (Figure 2, Project APE). The Project primarily consists of mass grading, excavation, trenching and construction of a residential community of multifamily homes, roads, and community facilities. The Project APE is bordered on the northern side by Olympic Parkway, Republic Services Otay Landfill on the southern side, and Brandywine Avenue on the west, and a rural canyon to the east. The Project’s area of direct impact (ADI) is only 67.5 acres of the 135.7- acre area of potential effects (APE), with the remainder being left as open space. The development will be centered on the highest portion of the property in the southeastern corner of the Project APE.

Historical resources are recognized as part of the environment under CEQA. It defines historical resources as “any object, building, structure, site, area, or place, which is historically significant in the architectural, engineering, scientific, economic, agricultural, educational, social, political, military, or cultural annals of California” (Division I, Public Resources Code [PRC] Section 5021.1[b]). Lead agencies have a responsibility to evaluate historical resources against the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR) criteria prior to making a finding as to a proposed project’s impacts to historical resources. Mitigation of adverse impacts is required if a project will cause substantial adverse change. Substantial adverse change includes demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration such that the significance of an historical resource would be impaired. The CEQA Guidelines provide that a project that demolishes or alters those physical characteristics of an historical resource that convey its historical significance (i.e., its character-defining features) can be considered to materially impair the resource’s significance. The CRHR is used in the consideration of historic resources relative to significance for purposes of CEQA. The CRHR includes resources listed in, or formally determined eligible for some California State Landmarks and Points of Historical Interest. Properties of local significance that have been designated under a local preservation ordinance (local landmarks or landmark districts), or that have been identified in a local historical resources inventory may be eligible for listing in the CRHR and are presumed to be significant resources for purposes of CEQA unless a preponderance of evidence indicates otherwise. Generally, a resource shall be considered by the lead agency to be “historically significant” if the resource meets the criteria for listing on the CRHR (PRC SS5024.1, Title 14 CCR, Section 4852) consisting of the following: 1. It is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of local or regional history, or the cultural heritage of California or the United States; or 2. It is associated with the lives of persons important to local, California, or national history; or 3. It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction, or represents the work of a master, or possesses high artistic values; or Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 8 4. It has yielded, or has the potential to yield, information important to the prehistory or history of the local area, California, or the nation. CEQA was amended in 2014 through Assembly Bill (AB) 52, which created a new category of “tribal culture resources” that must be considered under CEQA, and applies to all projects that file a Notice of Preparation or notice of negative declaration or mitigated negative declaration on or after July 1, 2015. AB 52 requires lead agencies to provide notice to and begin consultation with California Native American tribes that are traditionally and culturally affiliated with the geographic area of a Project if that tribe has requested, in writing, to be kept informed of projects by the lead agency prior to the determination whether a negative declaration, mitigated negative declaration, or environmental impact report will be prepared. If a tribe requests consultation within 30 days upon receipt of the notice, the lead agency must consult with the tribe. AB 52 also specifies mitigation measures that may be considered to avoid or minimize impacts on tribal cultural resources. Specifically, California PRC Section 21074 provides the following guidance: (a) Tribal Cultural Resources are either of the following: (1) Sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to a California Native American tribe that are either of the following: (A) Included or determined to be eligible for inclusion in the California Register of Cultural Resources. (B) Included in a local register of cultural resources as defined in subdivision (k) of §5020.1. (2) A resource determined by the lead agency, in its discretion and supported by substantial evidence, to be significant pursuant to criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of §5024.1. In applying the criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of §5024.1 for the purposes of this paragraph, the lead agency shall consider the significance of the resource to a California Native American tribe. (b) A cultural landscape that meets the criteria of subdivision (a) is a tribal cultural resource to the extent that the landscape is geographically defined in terms of the size and scope of the landscape. (c) A historical resource described in Section 21084.1, a unique archaeological resource as defined in subdivision (g) of Section 21083.2, or a “nonunique archeological resource” as defined in subdivision (h) of Section 21083.2 may also be a tribal cultural resource if it conforms with the criteria of subdivision (a). Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 9 In the event that Native American human remains or related cultural material are encountered, Section 15064.5(e) of the state CEQA Guidelines (as incorporated from PRC Section 5097.98) and Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 define the subsequent protocol. In the event of the accidental discovery or recognition of any human remains, excavation or other disturbances shall be suspended of the site or any nearby area reasonably suspected to overlie adjacent human remains or related material. Protocol requires that a county-approved coroner be contacted in order to determine if the remains are of Native American origin. Should the coroner determine the remains to be Native American, the coroner must contact the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) within 24 hours. The most likely descendent may make recommendations to the landowner or the person responsible for the excavation work, for means of treating, with appropriate dignity, the human remains and any associated grave goods as provided in PRC Section 5097.98 (California Code of Regulations, Title 14; Chapter 3; Article 5; Section 15064.5[e]). Paleontological resources are explicitly afforded protection by CEQA, specifically in Section VII(f) of CEQA Guidelines Appendix G, the “Environmental Checklist Form,” which addresses the potential for adverse impacts to “unique paleontological resource[s] or site[s] or … unique geological feature[s].” This provision covers fossils of signal importance–remains of species or genera new to science, for example, or fossils exhibiting features not previously recognized for a given animal group–as well as localities that yield fossils significant in their abundance, diversity, preservation, and so forth. Further, CEQA provides that generally, a resource shall be considered “historically significant” if it has yielded or may be likely to yield information important in prehistory (PRC 15064.5 [a][3][D]). Paleontological resources would fall within this category. The PRC, Chapter 1.7, Sections 5097.5 and 30244 also regulates removal of paleontological resources from state lands, defines unauthorized removal of fossil resources as a misdemeanor, and requires mitigation of disturbed sites. 1.1.2 Local Regulations City of Chula Vista Historic Preservation Ordinance The City of Chula Vista (City) has developed a set of guidelines that ensure compliance with state and federal guidelines for the management of historical resources. The criteria for designation of a resource to the Chula Vista Register of Historical Resources is found in Chapter 21 of the Chula Vista Municipal Code (City of Chula Vista 2014). The intent of the City’s guidelines is to ensure consistency in the identification, evaluation, preservation/mitigation, and development of the City’s historical resources. The criteria used by the city to determine significance for historic resources reflect a more local perspective of historical, architectural, and cultural importance for Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 10 inclusion on the city’s Register of Historical Resources. The resource can meet one or more of the following criteria (City of Chula Vista 2014): 1. A resource is at least 45 years old; and 2. A resource possesses historical integrity defined under Chula Vista Municipal Code 21.03.084 and the resource is determined to have historical significance by meeting at least one of the following criteria: ii. Criterion 1: It is associated with an event that is important to prehistory or history on a national, state, regional, or local level. iii. Criterion 2: It is associated with a person or persons that have made significant contributions to prehistory or history on a national, state or local level. iv. Criterion 3: It embodies the distinctive characteristics of a style, type, period, or method of construction, or represents the work of a master or important, creative individual, and/or possesses high artistic values. v. Criterion 4: It is an outstanding example of a publicly owned historical landscape that represents the work of a master landscape architect, horticulturist, or landscape designer or a publicly owned historical landscape that has potential to provide important information to the further study of landscape architecture or history. vi. Criterion 5: It has yielded or may be likely to yield information important in prehistory or the history of Chula Vista, the state, region, or nation. As defined by the City, “Integrity” relates to the authenticity of the historic identity of a resource. Integrity is preserved by the persistence and preservation of the physical attributes that existed when that resource was in use during a historic or prehistoric period, including: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. City of Chula Vista’s General Plan The Environmental Element of the City of Chula Vista General Plan (Chapter 9, Section 3.1.10) specifically addresses potential impacts to non-renewable paleontological resources and outlines policies to mitigate negative impacts (City of Chula Vista 2005). The objective and policies protecting paleontological resources are outlined below: • Objective E-9: Protect Chula Vista’s important cultural resources and support and encourage their accessibility to the public o Policy E-9.1: Continue to assess and mitigate the potential impacts of private development and public facilities and infrastructure to cultural resources, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act. Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 11 o Policy E-9.2: Support and encourage the accessibility of Chula Vista’s important cultural resources to the public for educational; religious; cultural; scientific; and other purposes, including the establishment of museums and facilities accessible to the public, where such resources can be appropriately studied, exhibited, curated, etc. o Policy E-9.3: Discourage disruption, demolition, and other negative impacts to historic cultural resources. • Objective E-10: Protect important paleontological resources and support and encourage public education and awareness of such resources. o Policy E-10.1: Continue to assess and mitigate the potential impacts of private development and public facilities and infrastructure to paleontological resources in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act. o Policy E-10.2: Support and encourage public education and awareness of local paleontological resources, including the establishment of museums and educational opportunities accessible to the public. 1.2 Project Personnel Dudek Archaeologist Angela Pham, M.A., RPA, acted as Principal Investigator for the Project, directed the archaeological survey, and co-authored the report.

All existing vegetation consists of native grasses and shrubs. Common animals within this area may include coyote (Canis latrans), California ground squirrel (Spermophilus beecheyi), pocket gopher (Thomomys bottae) striped skunk (Mephitis mephitis), Virginia opossum (Didelphis virginiana), cottontail (Sylvilagus audubonit), black-tailed jackrabbit (Lepus californicus bennettii), deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) sparrow (Melospiza melodia), lesser goldfinch (Cardeulis psaltria), and common yellowthroat (Geothlypis trichas), as well as a number of other species of birds, mammals, reptiles, and amphibians. 2.2 Geological Setting The Project lies within the Peninsular Ranges Geomorphic Province (California Geological Survey 2002). This province extends from the tip of the Baja California to the Transverse Ranges (the San Gabriel and San Bernardino Mountains) and includes the Los Angeles Basin, offshore islands (Santa Catalina, Santa Barbara, San Nicholas, and San Clemente), and continental shelf. The eastern boundary is the Colorado Desert Geomorphic Province (California Geological Survey 2002; Morton and Miller 2006). The Peninsular Ranges were formed by uplift of plutonic igneous rock resulting from the subduction of the Pacific Plate underneath the North American Plate during the latter portion of the Mesozoic era (approximately 125 to 90 million years ago) (Abbott 1999). 2.3 Cultural Context 2.3.1 Prehistoric and Ethnohistoric Periods Evidence for continuous human occupation in the San Diego region spans the last 10,000 years. Various attempts to parse out variability in archaeological assemblages over this broad time frame have led to the development of several cultural chronologies; some of these are based on geologic time, most are based on temporal trends in archaeological assemblages, and others are interpretive reconstructions. Each of these reconstructions describes essentially similar trends in assemblage composition in more or less detail. This research employs a common set of generalized terms used to describe chronological trends in assemblage composition: Paleoindian (pre-5500 BC), Archaic (8000 BC.–AD 500), Late Prehistoric (AD 500–1750), and Ethnohistoric (post-AD 1750). Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 14 Paleoindian (pre-5500 BC) Evidence for Paleoindian occupation in coastal Southern California is tenuous, especially considering the fact that the oldest dated archaeological assemblages look nothing like the Paleoindian artifacts from the Great Basin. One of the earliest dated archaeological assemblages in coastal Southern California (excluding the Channel Islands) derives from SDI-4669/W-12, in La Jolla. A human burial from SDI-4669 was radiocarbon dated to 9,590–9,920 years before present (BP) (95.4% probability) (Hector 2007). The burial is part of a larger site complex that contained more than 29 human burials associated with an assemblage that fits the Archaic profile (i.e., large amounts of groundstone, battered cobbles, and expedient flake tools). In contrast, typical Paleoindian assemblages include large stemmed projectile points, high proportions of formal lithic tools, bifacial lithic reduction strategies, and relatively small proportions of groundstone tools. Prime examples of this pattern are sites that were studied by Emma Lou Davis (1978) on China Lake Naval Air Weapons Station near Ridgecrest, California. These sites contained fluted and unfluted stemmed points and large numbers of formal flake tools (e.g., shaped scrapers, blades). Other typical Paleoindian sites include the Komodo site (MNO-679)—a multicomponent fluted point site, and MNO-680—a single component Great Basin Stemmed point site (Basgall et al. 2002). At MNO-679 and MNO-680, groundstone tools were rare while finely made projectile points were common. Turning back to coastal Southern California, the fact that some of the earliest dated assemblages are dominated by processing tools runs counter to traditional notions of mobile hunter–gatherers traversing the landscape for highly valued prey. Evidence for the latter—that is, typical Paleoindian assemblages—may have been located along the coastal margin at one time, prior to glacial retreat and the concomitant rapid rise in sea level during the early Holocene (pre-7500 BP) that submerged as much as 1.8 kilometers of the San Diego coastline. If this were true, however, it would also be expected that such sites would be located on older landforms near the current coastline. Some sites, such as SDI-210 along Agua Hedionda Lagoon, contained stemmed points similar in form to Silver Lake and Lake Mojave projectile points (pre-8000 BP) that are commonly found at sites in California’s high desert (Basgall and Hall 1990). SDI-210 yielded one corrected radiocarbon date of 8520–9520 BP (Warren et al. 2004). However, sites of this nature are extremely rare and cannot be separated from large numbers of milling tools that intermingle with old projectile point forms. Warren et al. (2004) claimed that a biface manufacturing tradition present at the Harris site complex (SDI-149) is representative of typical Paleoindian occupation in the San Diego region that possibly dates between 10,365 and 8200 BC (Warren et al. 2004: 26). Termed San Dieguito (Rogers 1945), assemblages at the Harris site are qualitatively distinct from most others in the San Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 15 Diego region because the site has large numbers of finely made bifaces (including projectile points), formal flake tools, a biface reduction trajectory, and relatively small amounts of processing tools (Warren 1964, 1968). Despite the unique assemblage composition, the definition of San Dieguito as a separate cultural tradition is hotly debated. Gallegos (1987) suggested that the San Dieguito pattern is simply an inland manifestation of a broader economic pattern. Gallegos’ interpretation of San Dieguito has been widely accepted in recent years, in part because of the difficulty in distinguishing San Dieguito components from other assemblage constituents. In other words, it is easier to ignore San Dieguito as a distinct socioeconomic pattern than it is to draw it out of mixed assemblages. The large number of finished bifaces (i.e., projectile points and non-projectile blades), along with large numbers of formal flake tools at the Harris site complex, is very different than nearly all other assemblages throughout the San Diego region, regardless of age. Warren et al. (2004) made this point, tabulating basic assemblage constituents for key early Holocene sites. Producing finely made bifaces and formal flake tools implies that relatively large amounts of time were spent on tool manufacture. Such a strategy contrasts with the expedient flake-based tools and cobble-core reduction strategy that typifies non-San Dieguito Archaic sites. It can be inferred from the uniquely high degree of San Dieguito assemblage formality that the Harris site complex represents an economic strategy distinct from non-San Dieguito assemblages. If San Dieguito truly represents a distinct socioeconomic strategy from the non-San Dieguito Archaic processing regime, its rarity implies that it was not only short-lived, but that it was not as economically successful as the Archaic strategy. Such a conclusion would fit with other trends in southern California deserts, wherein hunting-related tools are replaced by processing tools during the early Holocene (Hall and Basgall 1993). Archaic (8000 BC–AD 500) The considerable overlap between the presumed age of Paleoindian occupations and the Archaic period highlights the difficulty in defining a cultural chronology in the San Diego region. If San Dieguito is the only recognized Paleoindian component in the San Diego region, then the dominance of hunting tools implies that it derives from Great Basin adaptive strategies and is not necessarily a local adaptation. Warren et al. (2004) admitted as much, citing strong desert connections with San Dieguito. Thus, the Archaic pattern is the earliest local socioeconomic adaptation in the San Diego region (Hale 2001, 2009). The Archaic pattern is relatively easy to define with assemblages that consist primarily of processing tools: millingstones, handstones, battered cobbles, heavy crude scrapers, expedient Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 16 flake-based tools, and cobble-core reduction. These assemblages occur in all environments across the San Diego region, with little variability in composition. Low assemblage variability over time and space among Archaic sites has been equated with cultural conservatism (Byrd and Reddy 2002; Warren 1968; Warren et al. 2004). Despite enormous amounts of archaeological work at Archaic sites, little change in assemblage composition occurs until the bow and arrow is adopted at around AD 500, as well as ceramics at approximately the same time (Griset 1996; Hale 2009). Even then, assemblage formality remains low. After the bow is adopted, small arrow points appear in large quantities and already low amounts of formal flake tools are replaced by increasing amounts of expedient flake tools. Similarly, shaped millingstones and handstones decrease in proportion relative to expedient, unshaped groundstone tools (Hale 2009). Thus, the terminus of the Archaic period is equally as hard to define as its beginning because basic assemblage constituents and patterns of manufacturing investment remain stable, complimented only by the addition of the bow and ceramics. Reasons for the rapid and early development of a generalized processing economy have cited environmental deterioration or population growth as primary agents of change. Environmental deterioration cannot account for its development since southern California environments have had established plant communities for much of the last 15,000 years (Axelrod 1978, see Hale 2001) that varied mostly in vertical distribution. Indeed, the Pinto period seems to have thrived during the Archaic period, even if specific local manifestations are less obvious than others (Basgall et al. 2002). Population growth itself also presents a weak case as a primary agent of change since the archaeological record is either too incomplete to support such an analysis or because it implies a shift in mobility rather than population density. Archaic period sites reflect serial site occupation rather than either high residential mobility or sedentism (Basgall and True 1985; Hale 2001). Rather, the best explanation for the appearance and persistence of the Archaic pattern is that it represents a strongly stable socioeconomic strategy tailor-made for Southern California with its rich crops of roots and tubers, seeds, and nuts and small animals. Late Prehistoric (AD 500–1750) The period of time following the Archaic and prior to Ethnohistoric times (AD 1750) is commonly referred to as the Late Prehistoric (Rogers 1945; Wallace 1955; Warren et al. 2004). However, several other subdivisions continue to be used to describe various shifts in assemblage composition, including the addition of ceramics and cremation practices. In northern San Diego County, the post-AD 1450 period is called the San Luis Rey Complex (Meighan and True 1977), while the same period in southern San Diego County is called the Cuyamaca Complex and is thought to extend from AD 500 until Ethnohistoric times (Meighan 1959). Rogers (1929) also subdivided the last 1,000 years into the Yuman II and III cultures, based on the distribution of Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 17 ceramics. Despite these regional complexes, each is defined by the addition of arrow points and ceramics, and the widespread use of bedrock mortars. Vagaries in the appearance of the bow and arrow and ceramics make the temporal resolution of the San Luis Rey and Cuyamaca complexes difficult. For this reason, the term Late Prehistoric is well-suited to describe the last 1,500 years of prehistory in the San Diego region. Temporal trends in socioeconomic adaptations during the Late Prehistoric period are poorly understood. This is partly due to the fact that the fundamental Late Prehistoric assemblage is very similar to the Archaic pattern, but includes arrow points and large quantities of fine debitage from producing arrow points, ceramics, and cremations. The appearance of mortars and pestles is difficult to place in time because most mortars are on bedrock surfaces; bowl mortars are actually rare in the San Diego region. Some argue that the Ethnohistoric intensive acorn economy extends as far back as AD 500 (Bean and Shipek 1978). However, there is no substantial evidence that reliance on acorns, and the accompanying use of mortars and pestles, occurred prior to AD 1400. True (1980) argued that acorn processing and ceramic use in the northern San Diego region did not occur until the San Luis Rey pattern emerged after approximately AD 1450. For southern San Diego County, the picture is less clear. The Cuyamaca Complex is the southern counterpart to the San Luis Rey pattern, however, and is most recognizable after AD 1450 (Hector 1984). Similar to True (1980), Hale (2009) argued that an acorn economy did not appear in the southern San Diego region until just prior to Ethnohistoric times, and that when it did occur, a major shift in social organization followed. In spite of the abundant cultural influences from the Colorado Desert, early agricultural practices never gained traction in California, and western Colorado Desert evidence for aboriginal agriculture is virtually non-existent, absent early ethnohistoric accounts of Fort Mojave Indians (Kroeber 1925). It is likely that the stable Archaic economy persisted into the Late Prehistoric era and absorbed the efficiencies of certain technological innovations including the bow and arrow and ceramics. Locally, however, Tizon Brownware ceramic vessels dominate archaeological assemblages; Colorado buffware fragments are relatively rare, and could have been obtained simply through trade. Aboriginal agriculture probably hit a socioeconomic brick wall in southern California where a stable economy focused on generalized but regular exploitation of locally abundant plant foods was simply too efficient and socially reinforced to allow the labor intensive practice of agriculture to take root (Bettinger 1999; Bettinger 2001; Hale 2010). Ethnohistoric (post-AD 1750) The history of the Native American communities prior to the mid-1700s has largely been reconstructed through later mission-period and early ethnographic accounts. The first records of Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 18 the Native American inhabitants of the San Diego region come predominantly from European merchants, missionaries, military personnel, and explorers. These brief, and generally peripheral, accounts were prepared with the intent of furthering respective colonial and economic aims and were combined with observations of the landscape. They were not intended to be unbiased accounts regarding the cultural structures and community practices of the newly encountered cultural groups. The establishment of the missions in the San Diego region brought more extensive documentation of Native American communities, though these groups did not become the focus of formal and in-depth ethnographic study until the early Twentieth Century (Boscana 1846; Fages 1937; Geiger and Meighan 1976; Harrington 1934; Laylander 2000). The principal intent of these researchers was to record the precontact, culturally specific practices, ideologies, and languages that had survived the destabilizing effects of missionization and colonialism. This research, often understood as “salvage ethnography,” was driven by the understanding that traditional knowledge was being lost due to the impacts of modernization and cultural assimilation. Alfred Kroeber applied his “memory culture” approach (Lightfoot 2005: 32) by recording languages and oral histories within the San Diego region. Kroeber’s 1925 assessment of the impacts of Spanish missionization on local Native American populations supported Kumeyaay traditional cultural continuity (Kroeber 1925: 711): San Diego was the first mission founded in upper California; but the geographical limits of its influence were the narrowest of any, and its effects on the natives comparatively light. There seem to be two reasons for this: first, the stubbornly resisting temper of the natives; and second, a failure of the rigorous concentration policy enforced elsewhere. In some ways this interpretation led to the belief that many California Native American groups simply escaped the harmful effects of contact and colonization all together. This, of course, is untrue. Ethnographic research by Dubois, Kroeber, Harrington, Spier, and others during the early Twentieth Century seemed to indicate that traditional cultural practices and beliefs survived among local Native American communities. These accounts supported, and were supported by, previous governmental decisions which made San Diego County the location of more federally recognized tribes than anywhere else in the United States: 18 tribes on 18 reservations that cover more than 116,000 acres (CSP 2009). The traditional cultural boundaries between the Luiseño and Kumeyaay Native American tribal groups have been well defined by anthropologist Florence Shipek (1993; summarized by the San Diego County Board of Supervisors 2007:6): In 1769, the Kumeyaay national territory started at the coast about 100 miles south of the Mexican border (below Santo Tomas), thence north to the coast at the drainage Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 19 divide south of the San Luis Rey River including its tributaries. Using the U.S. Geological Survey topographic maps, the boundary with the Luiseño then follows that divide inland. The boundary continues on the divide separating Valley Center from Escondido and then up along Bear Ridge to the 2240 contour line and then north across the divide between Valley Center and Woods Valley up to the 1880-foot peak, then curving around east along the divide above Woods Valley. Based on ethnographic information, it is believed that at least 88 different languages were spoken from Baja California Sur to the southern Oregon state border at the time of Spanish contact (Johnson and Lorenz 2006: 34). The distribution of recorded Native American languages has been dispersed as a geographic mosaic across California through six primary language families (Golla 2007: 71). Based on the Project location, the Native American inhabitants of the region would have likely spoken both the Ipai and Tipai language subgroup of the Yuman language family. Ipai and Tipai, spoken respectively by the northern and southern Kumeyaay communities, are mutually intelligible. For this reason, these two are often treated as dialects of a larger Kumeyaay tribal group rather than as distinctive languages, though this has been debated (Laylander 2010; Luomala 1978). Victor Golla contends that one can interpret the amount of variability within specific language groups as being associated with the relative “time depth” of the speaking populations (Golla 2007: 80). All things being equal, a language group with a high degree of internal variation is therefore older than one with less internal diversity. Golla further observes that the “absolute chronology of the internal diversification within a language family” can be correlated with archaeological dates (2007: 71). This type of interpretation is modeled on concepts of genetic drift and gene flow associated with migration and population isolation in the biological sciences. Golla suggested that there are two language families associated with Native American groups who traditionally lived throughout the San Diego County region. The northern San Diego tribes have traditionally spoken Takic languages that may be assigned to the larger Uto–Aztecan family (Golla 2007: 74). These groups include the Luiseño, Cupeño, and Cahuilla. Golla has interpreted the amount of internal diversity within these language-speaking communities to reflect a time depth of approximately 2,000 years. Other researchers have contended that Takic may have diverged from Uto–Aztecan ca. 2600 BC–AD 1, which was later followed by the diversification within the Takic speaking San Diego tribes, occurring approximately 1500 BC–AD 1000 (Laylander 2010). The majority of Native American tribal groups in the southern San Diego region have traditionally spoken Yuman languages, a subgroup of the Hokan Phylum. Golla has suggested that the time depth of Hokan is approximately 8,000 years (Golla 2007: 74). The Kumeyaay tribal communities share a common language group with the Cocopa, Quechan, Maricopa, Mojave, and others to east, and the Kiliwa to the south. The time depth for both the Ipai (north of the San Diego River, from Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 20 Escondido to Lake Henshaw) and the Tipai (south of the San Diego River, the Laguna Mountains through Ensenada) is approximated to be 2,000 years at the most. Laylander has contended that previous research indicates a divergence between Ipai and Tipai to have occurred approximately AD 600–1200 (Laylander 1985). Despite the distinct linguistic differences between the Takic- speaking tribes to the north, the Ipai-speaking communities in central San Diego, and the Tipai southern Kumeyaay, attempts to illustrate the distinctions between these groups based solely on cultural material alone have had only limited success (Pigniolo 2004; True 1966). The Kumeyaay generally lived in smaller family subgroups that would inhabit two or more locations over the course of the year. While less common, there is sufficient evidence that there were also permanently occupied villages, and that some members may have remained at these locations throughout the year (Owen 1965; Shipek 1982, 1985; Spier 1923). Each autonomous tribelet was internally socially stratified, commonly including higher status individuals such as a tribal head (Kwaaypay), shaman (Kuseyaay), and general members with various responsibilities and skills (Shipek 1982). Higher-status individuals tended to have greater rights to land resources, and owned more goods, such as shell money and beads, decorative items, and clothing. To some degree, titles were passed along family lines; however, tangible goods were generally burned ceremonially or destroyed following the deaths of their owners (Luomala 1978). Remains were cremated over a pyre and then relocated to a cremation ceramic vessel that was placed in a removed or hidden location. A broken metate was commonly placed at the location of the cremated remains, with the intent of providing aid and further use after death. At maturity, tribal members often left to other bands in order to find a partner. The families formed networks of communication and exchange around such partnerships. Areas or regions, identified by known physical landmarks, could be recognized as band-specific territories that might be violently defended against use by other members of the Kumeyaay. Other areas or resources, such as water sources and other locations that were rich in natural resources, were generally understood as communal land to be shared amongst all the Kumeyaay (Loumala 1978). The coastal Kumeyaay exchanged a number of local goods, such as seafood, coastal plants, and various types of shell for items including acorns, agave, mesquite beans, gourds, and other more interior plants (Luomala 1978). Shellfish would have been procured from three primary environments, including the sandy open coast, bay and lagoon, and rocky open coast. The availability of these marine resources changed with the rising sea levels, siltation of lagoon and bay environments, changing climatic conditions, and intensity of use by humans and animals (Gallegos and Kyle 1988; Pigniolo 2005; Warren 1964). Shellfish from sandy environments included Donax, Saxidomus, Tivela, and others. Rocky coast shellfish dietary contributions consisted of Pseudochama, Megastraea, Saxidomus, Protothaca, Megathura, Mytilus and others. Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 21 Lastly, the bay environment would have provided Argopecten, Chione, Ostrea, Neverita, Macoma, Tagelus, and others. While marine resources were obviously consumed, terrestrial animals and other resources likely provided a large portion of sustenance. Game animals consisted of rabbits and hares (Leporidae), birds (Aves), ground squirrels (Spermophilus), woodrats (Neotoma), deer (Cervus), bears (Ursus), mountain lions (Puma concolor), bobcats (Lynx rufus), coyotes (Canis latrans), and others. In lesser numbers, reptiles and amphibians may have been consumed. A number of local plants were used for food and medicine. These were exploited seasonally, and were both traded between regional groups and gathered as a single tribelet moved between habitation areas. Some of the more common of these that might have been procured locally included buckwheat (Eriogonum fasciculatum), Agave, Yucca, lemonade berry (Rhus integrifolia), sugar brush (Rhus ovata), sage scrub (Artemisia californica), yerba santa (Eriodictyon), sage (Salvia), Ephedra, prickly pear (Opuntia), mulefat (Baccharis salicifolia), chamise (Adenostoma fasciculatum), elderberry (Sambucus nigra), oak (Quercus), willow (Salix), and Juncus grass among many others (Wilken 2012). The Project APE is located approximately 19 miles west of Tecate Peak and 9.5 miles west of Otay Mountain. Both of these locations figure strongly in Kumeyaay cosmological world views and creation stories. Tecate peak was called Kuuchamaa, and was understood to be a shamanic location for acquiring power. Shipek observed that, while there were other named mountains of cultural significance, “Kuuchanuia was the central place, more sacred and more powerful than any other” (Shipek 1985). Just west of this sacred peak is the Otay Mountain, known in Tipai as Huu, or “the nose.” Areas or regions, identified by known physical landmarks, could be recognized as band- specific territories that might be vigorously defended – violent if need be – against use by other members of the Kumeyaay. Other areas or resources, such as water sources and other locations rich in natural resources, were generally understood as communal property to be shared amongst all the Kumeyaay (Loumala 1978). Historic Period (post-AD 1542) European activity in the region began as early as AD 1542, when Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo landed in San Diego Bay. Sebastián Vizcaíno returned in 1602, and it is possible that there were subsequent contacts that went unrecorded. These brief encounters made the local native people aware of the existence of other cultures that were technologically more complex than their own. Epidemic diseases may also have been introduced into the region at an early date, either by direct contacts with the infrequent European visitors or through waves of diffusion emanating from native peoples farther to the east or south (Preston 2002). It is possible, but as yet unproven, that the precipitous demographic decline of native peoples had already begun prior to the arrival of Gaspar de Portolá and Junípero Serra in 1769. Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 22 Spanish colonial settlement was initiated in 1769, when multiple expeditions arrived in San Diego by land and sea, and then continued northward through the coastal plain toward Monterey. A military presidio and a mission were soon firmly established at San Diego, despite violent resistance to them from a coalition of native communities in 1776. Private ranchos subsequently established by Spanish and Mexican soldiers, as well as other non-natives, appropriated much of the remaining coastal or near-coastal locations (Pourade 1960–1967). Mexico’s separation from the Spanish empire in 1821 and the secularization of the California missions in the 1830s caused further disruptions to native populations in western San Diego County. Some former mission neophytes were absorbed into the work forces on the ranchos, while others drifted toward the urban centers at San Diego and Los Angeles or moved to the eastern portions of the county where they were able to join still largely autonomous Native communities. United States conquest and annexation, together with the gold rush in Northern California, brought many additional outsiders into the region. Development during the following decades was fitful, undergoing cycles of boom and bust. With rising populations in the Nineteenth Century throughout the Southern California region, there were increased demands for important commodities such as salt.

CEQA defines a substantial adverse change: Substantial adverse change in the significance of an historical resource means physical demolition, destruction, relocation, or alteration of the resource or its immediate surroundings such that the significance of an historical resource would be materially impaired. The significance of an historical resource is materially impaired when a project: • demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of an historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its inclusion in, or eligibility for, inclusion in the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR); or • demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics that account for its inclusion in a local register of historical resources pursuant to section 5020.1(k) of the Public Resources Code or its identification in an historical resources survey meeting the requirements of section 5024.1(g) of the Public Resources Code, unless the public agency reviewing the effects of the project establishes by a preponderance of evidence that the resource is not historically or culturally significant; or • demolishes or materially alters in an adverse manner those physical characteristics of an historical resource that convey its historical significance and that justify its eligibility for inclusion in the CRHR as determined by a lead agency for purposes of CEQA. Section 15064.5(c) of CEQA applies to effects on archaeological sites and contains the following additional provisions regarding archaeological sites: • When a project will impact an archaeological site, a lead agency shall first determine whether the site is an historical resource, as defined in subsection (a). • If a lead agency determines that the archaeological site is an historical resource, it shall refer to the provisions of Section 21084.1 of the Public Resources Code, and this section, Section 15126.4 of the Guidelines, and the limits contained in Section 21083.2 of the Public Resources Code do not apply. Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 24 • If an archaeological site does not meet the criteria defined in subsection (a), but does meet the definition of a unique archaeological resource in Section 21083.2 of the Public Resources Code, the site shall be treated in accordance with the provisions of Section 21083.2. The time and cost limitations described in Public Resources Code Section 21083.2 (c–f) do not apply to surveys and site evaluation activities intended to determine whether the project location contains unique archaeological resources. If an archaeological resource is neither a unique archaeological nor an historical resource, the effects of the project on those resources shall not be considered a significant effect on the environment. It shall be sufficient that both the resource and the effect on it are noted in the Initial Study or EIR, if one is prepared to address impacts on other resources, but they need not be considered further in the CEQA process. Section 15064.5 (d) and (e) contain additional provisions regarding human remains. Regarding Native American human remains, paragraph (d) provides the following: When an initial study identifies the existence of, or the probable likelihood, of Native American human remains within the project, a lead agency shall work with the appropriate Native Americans as identified by the Native American Heritage Commission as provided in Public Resources Code SS5097.98. The applicant may develop an agreement for treating or disposing of, with appropriate dignity, the human remains and any items associated with Native American burials with the appropriate Native Americans as identified by the Native American Heritage Commission. Action implementing such an agreement is exempt from: the general prohibition on disinterring, disturbing, or removing human remains from any location other than a dedicated cemetery (Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5); and the requirement of CEQA and the Coastal Act. 1. 2 Paleontological Resources Paleontological resources are the fossilized remains or traces of plants and animals that are preserved in earth’s crust, and per the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology guidelines (SVP 2010), are older than written history or older than approximately 5,500 years. They are limited, nonrenewable resources of scientific and educational value, which are afforded protection under state and local laws and regulations as defined in Section 1.1, Regulatory Context, of this report. This study satisfies requirements in accordance with state guidelines (13 PRC, 2100 et seq.) and Public Resources Code Section 5097.5 (Stats 1965, c 1136, p. 2792). This analysis also complies with guidelines and significance criteria specified by the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology (SVP 2010). Table 1, Paleontological Resources Sensitivity Criteria, provides definitions for high, moderate, low, marginal, and no paleontological resource Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 25 potential, or sensitivity, as set forth in and in agreement with the County of San Diego’s (2009) Guidelines for Determining Significance: Paleontological Resources. Table 1. Paleontological Resources Sensitivity Criteria Resource Sensitivity / Potential Definition High High resource potential and high sensitivity are assigned to geologic formations known to contain paleontological localities with rare, well preserved, critical fossil materials for stratigraphic or paleoenvironmental interpretation, and fossils providing important information about the paleoclimatic, paleobiological and/or evolutionary history (phylogeny) of animal and plant groups. In general, formations with high resource potential are considered to have the highest potential to produce unique invertebrate fossil assemblages or unique vertebrate fossil remains and are, therefore, highly sensitive. Moderate Moderate resource potential and moderate sensitivity are assigned to geologic formations known to contain paleontological localities. These geologic formations are judged to have a strong, but often unproven, potential for producing unique fossil remains (Deméré and Walsh 1993). Low Low resource potential and low sensitivity are assigned to geologic formations that, based on their relatively young age and/or high-energy depositional history, are judged unlikely to produce unique fossil remains. Low resource potential formations rarely produce fossil remains of scientific significance and are considered to have low sensitivity. However, when fossils are found in these formations, they are often very significant additions to our geologic understanding of the area. Marginal Marginal resource potential and marginal sensitivity are assigned to geologic formations that are composed either of volcaniclastic (derived from volcanic sources) or metasedimentary rocks, but that nevertheless have a limited probability for producing fossils from certain formations at localized outcrops. Volcaniclastic rock can contain organisms that were fossilized by being covered by ash, dust, mud, or other debris from volcanoes. Sedimentary rocks that have been metamorphosed by heat and/or pressure caused by volcanoes or plutons are called metasedimentary. If the sedimentary rocks had paleontological resources within them, those resources may have survived the metamorphism and still be identifiable within the metasedimentary rock, but since the probability of this occurring is so limited, these formations are considered marginally sensitive. No Potential No resource potential is assigned to geologic formations that are composed entirely of volcanic or plutonic igneous rock, such as basalt or granite, and therefore do not have any potential for producing fossil remains. These formations have no paleontological resource potential, i.e., they are not sensitive. Source: County of San Diego 2009.

This search included their collection of mapped prehistoric, historical and built-environment resources, Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) Site Records, technical reports, archival resources, and ethnographic references. Additional consulted sources included the National Register of Historic Places, California Inventory of Historical Resources/CRHR and listed Office of Historic Preservation Archaeological Determinations of Eligibility, California Points of Historical Interest, California Historical Landmarks, and Caltrans Bridge Survey information. Confidential Appendix A provides the confidential results of the records search and a bibliography of prior cultural resources studies. In addition to the SCIC records search, Dudek requested a paleontological records search from the San Diego Natural History Museum (SDNHM) on April 9, 2020. The records search request included the Project APE and a 1-mile radius buffer around the Project. The purpose of the paleontological records search was to assist in identifying geological units within the Project APE and determine if any paleontological localities exist within the Project APE and 1-mile radius buffer. 4.1.2 Field Methods Dudek Archaeologists Patrick Hadel, Jessica Colston, and Loukas Barton conducted a pedestrian survey of the APE for cultural and paleontological resources on April 11, 2020. Areas throughout the APE were inspected at 10- and 15-meter transects. Archaeological survey exceeded the applicable Secretary of Interior Professional Qualifications Standards for archaeological survey and evaluation. Areas with a slope exceeding 25% are avoided as a matter of safety. Survey crew was equipped with a GPS receiver. Location-specific photographs were taken using an Apple 3rd Generation iPad equipped with 8 MP resolution and georeferenced PDF maps of the Project area. Accuracy of this device ranged between 3 meters and 10 meters. Evidence for buried cultural and paleontological deposits was sought through inspection of natural or artificial erosion exposures and the spoils from rodent burrows. Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 28 4.1.3 Native American Participation/Consultation Dudek requested a NAHC search of the Sacred Lands File was sent on April 8, 2020, for Traditional Cultural Properties or Sacred Sites that have been identified to be within the Project APE (Appendix B). The NAHC results are pending. The NAHC will provide a contact list of Native American representatives for tribes that are traditionally geographically affiliated with the Project APE. Once received, tribal outreach letters will be sent to those representatives. The NAHC and tribal responses will be included in subsequent drafts of the current study. If any responses are forthcoming, they will be forwarded to the City. The proposed Project is also subject to compliance with AB 52 (PRC 21074) which requires consideration of impacts to “tribal cultural resources” as part of the CEQA process. AB 52 requires the City of Chula Vista, lead agency responsible for CEQA compliance for the proposed Project, to notify any groups (who have requested notification) of the proposed Project who are traditionally or culturally affiliated with the geographic area of the Project. Because AB 52 is a government-to-government process, all records of correspondence related to AB 52 notification and any subsequent consultation are on file with the City of Chula Vista.

One of which (SD- 10448) outlines the study of impacts for a proposed pipeline through the middle of the Project APE. At time of writing, only one intersecting report was available through the SCIC due to the lockdown on archival facilities associated with the COVID-19 epidemic. The remaining 52 reports are listed in Confidential Appendix A. Table 2.

SMITH AND ASSOCIATES SD-12397 2009 ARCHAEOLOGICAL MONITORING OF THE OTAY RANCH VILLAGE 2 PROJECT BRIAN F. SMITH & ASSOCIATES SD-12397 Report SD-12397 is a summary of the archaeological monitoring effort in support of the Otay Ranch Village 2 Project, an 855-acre parcel located immediately to the east of (but not overlapping) the current Project APE (see Confidential Appendix A). Conducted by Brian F. Smith and Associates, from June, 2006 to April, 2007, the report summarizes recoveries at three archaeological sites and four cultural isolates. None of the monitoring discoveries were considered significant and the authors determined that construction of the Otay Ranch Village 2 Project would not induce an adverse effect on cultural resources, and recommended that no further archaeological mitigation was necessary (Clowery-Moreno et al. 2009). The SCIC record search indicates that no cultural resources have been identified within the Project APE. However, 82 cultural resources have been recorded within the 1-mile search buffer (Table 3). Of these, only three are historic resources, while 79 are prehistoric resources. The density of resources within this 1-mile buffer attests to the potential for buried resources within the Project APE, even though none have yet been identified (Confidential Appendix A). Historic resources within the 1-mile buffer include the Otay Ranch Farm Complex (approximately 830 meters to the east of the current Project APE), a farmhouse at 5401 Main Street, and a structure mapped on the 1903 map. Of the 79 prehistoric resources already identified within the 1-mile buffer, we have evidence of four temporary camps, 27 light scatters of artifacts, most notably chipped stone, a single bedrock milling station, and 47 isolated artifacts that include simple flake tools, cores, millingstones, and pestles. Though the majority of these have not been fully evaluated, the nature and character of them attest to fairly light land-use patterns within the 1-mile buffer.

These sites might also be subject to erosion and result in artifact drift downslope into the Project APE. P-37-010471 (CA-SDI-10471) Resource is a prehistoric artifact scatter found immediately upslope of the Project APE, on the adjacent property to the south. The site measures roughly 45 meters in diameter. The site consists of moderate amounts of large tools, cores and flakes, as documented by Fink in 1973. A representative surface collection of the tools were taken. The area had been recently burned, therefore the presence of midden soils was impossible to determine. P-37-010473 (CA-SDI-10473) Resource is a prehistoric artifact scatter, consisting of large flakes, tools, cores situated on the crest of the southern side of Poggi Canyon, upslope from the Project’s southern boundary. The site measures approximately 32 meters in diameter. This site was heavily surface collected during recordation by Fink in 1974 and was subjected to subsurface testing at that time. The shovel test pits yielded no subsurface component. The interpretation was that this site constituted as surface scatter of a San Dieguito III lithic workshop. 5.2 Archival Review – Paleontological Resources According to surficial geological mapping at a scale of 1:100,000 (Kennedy and Tan 2008) and the paleontological records search through the SDNHM (Confidential Appendix C), the Project is underlain by Holocene (< 11,700 years ago) to late Pleistocene (approximately 129,000 to 11,700 years ago) young alluvial floodplain deposits (map unit Qya), the late Pliocene to early Pleistocene (approximately 3.6 million years ago to 1.8 million years ago) San Diego Formation (map unit Tsdss), and the late Oligocene (approximately 1 million years ago) Otay Formation (map unit To) (Figure 3, Geology Map). Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 34 The SDNHM paleontological records results were received on April 14, 2020, and no records were found of fossil localities within the boundaries of the Project APE. However, 14 fossil localities are located within a half-mile radius of the study area (Confidential Appendix C). Of these, two localities are from the Otay Formation and 12 localities are from the San Diego Formation. The following paragraphs summarize the records search results and geological units present within the Project site from youngest to oldest. Young Alluvial Floodplain Deposits (Qya) Young alluvial floodplain deposits crop out on the surface along a narrow band adjacent to Olympic Boulevard on the northern edge of the Project APE (Figure 3). These deposits generally consist of unconsolidated and poorly sorted gravels, sands, silts, and clays that are mostly Holocene in age. Due to the young age of young alluvial floodplain deposits, they do not usually contain significant paleontological resources and are assigned low paleontological sensitivity. However, oftentimes these deposits are relatively shallowly underlain by older geological units that are assigned moderate to high paleontological sensitivity. San Diego Formation (Tdss) The late Pliocene to early Pleistocene, marine San Diego Formation is mapped in the southern and southeastern portion of the Project (Figure 3) and consists of fossiliferous yellowish-gray to yellowish-brown, weakly consolidated, fine-grained sandstones, poorly sorted gravels, pebble conglomerates, and bedded claystones (Deméré and Walsh 1993; Kennedy 1975). The San Diego Formation is abundantly fossiliferous and has produced significant marine and terrestrial fossils throughout its extent in San Diego County. Jefferson (2010) reported a variety of birds and small and large terrestrial mammals in his compilation of early Quaternary fossil localities. The SDNHM reported 12 fossil localities within the half-mile radius buffer zone for the Project. These localities were recovered during excavations for the Sunbow II and Otay Ranch Village 1 West residential developments, just to the north of the Project APE. Trace, invertebrate, and vertebrate fossils collected during these excavations include burrows, coprolites, bryozoans, gastropods, bivalves, decapods, stomatopods, sand dollars, barnacles, crabs, sharks, rays, bony fish, sea birds, walrus, eared seals, sea cows, and whales. In addition to the marine trace, invertebrate, and vertebrate fossils recovered from the jobsite, terrestrial snakes, rabbits, horse, deer, and ground sloth were recovered. Based on the productivity of the San Diego Formation, it is assigned high paleontological sensitivity (Confidential Appendix C). Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 35 Otay Formation (To) The late Oligocene Otay Formation comprises the majority of the surficial geology of the Project APE (Figure 3). Geologically, the Otay Formation consists of fluvially-(river) deposited arkosic sandstone that interfingers with siltstone and claystone (Kennedy and Tan 2008). The Otay Formation is composed of three informal members based on their lithologies (lithostratigraphic units): (1) a basal “conglomerate member” composed of crumbly boulder to cobble clasts that are subrounded to subangular; (2) a middle “gritstone member” composed of crumbly to indurated, coarse to very coarse, pebbly gritstone; and (3) an upper “sandstone – mudstone member” composed of coarse sandstones grading upwardly into sandy siltstones and mudstones (Walsh and Deméré, 1991). The gritstone and sandstone – mudstone members have produced significant vertebrate fossils in San Diego County (Walsh and Deméré, 1991). The Otay Formation is assigned high paleontological sensitivity throughout its geographic extent (City of San Diego 2016) and high sensitivity within the Project APE according to the SDNHM (Confidential Appendix C). 5.3 Aerial Imagery Analysis A review of historic aerial imagery for the Project APE extends back to 1953 (NETR 2020) with photos present from 1953, 1964, 1966, 1968, 1971, 1981, 1989, 1994, 1996, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2014, and 2016. The aerial imagery showed that for the vast majority of the Project APE, no development of the property had been on site from the earliest aerial image in 1953. The Project APE is located at the western end of Poggi Canyon, occupying the southern slope. The construction of Olympic Parkway along the northern border of the Project APE began as a small dirt road visible in the 1953 photo, but was paved as a split lane highway between 1996 and 2002. The addition of the median and development of Olympic Parkway also impacted the Project APE with the creation of a culvert running parallel to Olympic. The Project APE includes the culvert as well as engineered animal crossing overpasses with surface vegetation. This impact runs along the northern 40 feet of the Project APE. From at least the early 1960s, the eastern section of the Project APE has been subject to cultivation as indicated by patterns of mechanical plowing; this practice appears to have ended in the 1980s. Historic topographic maps consulted were from 1904, 1908, 1911, 1915, 1920, 1928, 1932, 1941, 1943, 1955, 1960, 1962, 1977, 2002, 2012, 2015, and 2018. The topos show the current location of the landfill to have been a historic borrow pit, as early as 1904, with continuous use into the present. Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 36 5.4 Survey Results The intensive pedestrian survey of the APE conducted April 11, 2020, identified no new cultural or paleontological resources within the current APE limits. Visibility was overwhelmingly obscured by vegetation, allowing for less than one-third of the ground surface to be viewed in many areas. In addition, the western-most sector of the Project was inaccessible due to the presence of an active, inhabited homeless camp located within the proposed open space/Preserve area. Fortunately, this sector of the property is not scheduled for either grading or residential development. Across the Project, surface visibility was confined to scattered exposures near stands of lemonade berry (Rhus integrifolia), gopher and ground squirrel burrow spoils, and to a series of recently graded roadways. Several different vegetation communities have been identified across the Project APE (Ince et al. 2020), with elements of the Diegan Coastal Sage Scrub (namely large stands of lemonade berry), as well as Southern Willow Scrub (composed mainly of arroyo and black willows, Salix lasiolepis and Salix gooddingii respectively) being particularly impenetrable. Recent growth in both native and non-native grasslands due to heavy rains obscured surface visibility nearly everywhere else. Recent notable growth included blue-eyed grass (Sisyrinchium bellum) sweet fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) and wild oat (Avena barbata). The invasive white garden snail (Theba pisana) was in high abundance throughout the Project APE. Crisscrossing the western sector of the property is a network of recently graded roadways. These provided the most extensive and unobstructed view of the ground surface, revealing rounded alluvial cobbles and pebbles embedded in a clay-rich, fine-grained, and currently water-logged sediment matrix. Though the recorded roadways exposed roughly 2,350 square meters of bare ground, we did not encounter any cultural resources in those places. Other notable disturbances, namely colluvial slope wash at the bottoms of the small tributary feeder drainages, on the north side of the property, obscured bedrock, active vegetation, and likely all cultural and paleontological resources in the immediate area. Indeed, the colluvial movement of sediment and gravels downslope during seasonal heavy rains would ensure that cultural resources at the bottom of the hill, in and adjacent to Poggi Canyon, are deeply buried, wherever present.

Any cultural resources encountered within the Project APE during construction monitoring would have the potential to be eligible for listing on the CRHR. This is not to say that no significant resources exist, and any of these (as well as in aggregate) help to reveal the subsistence and settlement strategies of the prehistoric inhabitants throughout the broader region; further study of these patterns is essential. It is also very likely that the geological context throughout the area, particularly in the downslope areas of canyons and gullies, insures that prehistoric cultural resources are deeply buried; future disturbance may therefore unearth them. Similarly, any paleontological resources encountered during Project excavations would likely be scientifically significant. 6.2 Archaeological Recommendations Based on the cultural resources inventory of the Project, no known cultural resources will be impacted as a result of Project implementation. However, while no cultural resources have been identified or recorded within the Project APE, the proximity to known sites beyond the southern boundary, P-37-010473 (CA-SDI-10473) and P-37-010471 (CA-SDI-10471), indicates a high sensitivity of encountering intact subsurface cultural resources. The hills dividing Poggi Canyon and its affiliated seasonal drainage (on the north) from the more substantial Otay River (1 mile directly south of the Project APE) likely housed numerous trails connecting them, and may have hosted occasional gatherings or other activities. As with the existing archaeological record of the broader area, the Project APE may contain intact, buried evidence of prehistoric or historic transit, transportation, short-term encampments, and/or resource acquisition. There is always potential to encounter previously unidentified subsurface cultural deposits. It is recommended that impacts to cultural resources may be reduced to less than significant (no adverse effect) through full-time monitoring by an archaeologist and Native American monitor of all Project-related earth-moving activities, and preparation of a final cultural monitoring report following completion of construction. The final monitoring report should incorporate a summary of all previous cultural resource studies conducted within the Project APE. As summarized herein, a qualified archaeologist (Project Archaeologist), as defined by CEQA guidelines, should be retained to manage the implementation of the following mitigation program. The following mitigation measures would reduce potentially significant impacts to cultural resources and human remains to a less-than-significant level: Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 40 CUL-1: A. Prior to beginning construction activities, the Project Archaeologist and Native American representative will attend any pertinent preconstruction meetings with the construction manager and/or grading contractor in order to provide recommendations and answer questions relating to the archaeological monitoring program. The Project Archaeologist will be familiar with the cultural inventory conducted for the current Project and will be prepared to introduce any pertinent information concerning expectations and probabilities of discovery during ground disturbing activities. B. Both an archaeological monitor familiar with local resources and a Native American monitor will be present full-time during the initial disturbance of soil with potential to contain cultural deposits. All areas of initial Project-related subsurface disturbance should be assumed to have the potential to contain cultural deposits. Monitoring of initial ground disturbance will not exceed a depth of 5 feet (1.5 meters) unless cultural resources are identified or if, through direct inspection of subsurface exposures by the Project Archaeologist, an area is observed to have the potential to support the presence of archaeological deposits at greater depths. Cultural resources monitoring may be reduced from initial full-time monitoring to periodic spot checks, or discontinued if appropriate, once the Project Archaeologist determines that there is little or no risk to encounter cultural material. C. Daily archaeological and Native American monitoring logs will be prepared. Logs will include monitor names and affiliations, a description of general activities observed, cultural discoveries, as well as comments or concerns as applicable. D. In the event of an archaeological discovery, and when requested by the archaeological monitor or Native American monitor, the resident contractor will divert, redirect, or temporarily halt ground disturbing activities in the area of discovery or impacts to allow for preliminary inspection of potentially significant archaeological resources or impacts. The significance of the discovered resources or impacts will be determined by the archaeologist, in consultation with the City of Chula Vista (City). For significant cultural resources, a Research Design and Data Recovery Program will be prepared and carried out to mitigate impacts before grading activities in the area of discovery will be allowed to resume. E. The Project Archaeologist will be responsible for ensuring that all cultural materials collected will be cleaned, catalogued, and curated permanently with an appropriate institution; that a letter of acceptance from the curation institution has been submitted to the City; that all artifacts are analyzed to identify function and chronology as they relate to the history of the area; that faunal material will be identified as to species; and that specialty Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 41 studies are completed, as appropriate. The Project Archaeologist should make a good faith effort to ensure that all archaeological material collected through previous work is appropriately curated with any material recovered through construction monitoring. F. If human remains are discovered, work will halt in that area and procedures set forth in the California Public Resources Code (Section 5097.98) and State Health and Safety Code (Section 7050.5) will be followed by the archaeological monitor after notification to the County Coroner by the Project Archaeologist. If Native American remains are present, the County Coroner will contact the Native American Heritage Commission to designate a Most Likely Descendent, who will arrange for the dignified disposition and treatment of the remains. G. Within three months following the completion of monitoring, two copies of a monitoring results report (even if negative) and/or evaluation report, if applicable, that describes the results, analysis, and conclusions of the archaeological monitoring program (with appropriate graphics) will be submitted to City. H. For significant archaeological resources encountered during monitoring, the Research Design and Data Recovery Program will be included as part of the final evaluation monitoring report. Two copies of the final monitoring report for significant archaeological resources, if required, will be submitted to the City. This final monitoring report should also incorporate a summary of the evaluation results and analyses previously conducted within the Project area. I. The archaeologist will be responsible for recording (on the appropriate CA DPR 523 Series forms) any significant or potentially significant resources encountered during the archaeological monitoring program in accordance with Section 106 and the City’s Cultural Resources Guidelines, and submittal of such forms to the South Coastal Information Center at San Diego State University with the final monitoring results report. 6.3 Paleontological Recommendations Dudek’s review of record search data, geological mapping, geological and paleontological literature, and onsite field survey did not identify any existing paleontological resources within the Project APE boundaries. However, the paleontological records search performed by the SDNHM revealed there are 14 localities within a half-mile radius of the study area boundary from the San Diego and Otay Formations, which underlie the majority of the Project APE. Based on the records search results and map and literature review, the study area has high potential to produce paleontological resources during planned construction activities. A qualified paleontologist should be retained for the Project, in accordance with the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology guidelines (SVP 2010), and a complete paleontological monitoring program adopted prior to Project-related Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 42 earthmoving activities. Implementation of the following paleontological mitigation program would reduce any potential impacts to below a level of significance for paleontological resources: CUL-2: Prior to the issuance of grading permits, the Applicant shall provide written confirmation to the City that a qualified paleontologist has been retained to carry out an appropriate mitigation program. (A qualified paleontologist is defined as an individual with an M.S. or Ph.D. in paleontology or geology who is familiar with paleontological procedures and techniques.) A pre grade meeting shall be held among the paleontologist and the grading and excavation contractors. A paleontological monitor shall be onsite at all times during the original cutting of previously undisturbed sediments of highly sensitive geologic formations (i.e., Otay Formation and San Diego Formation) to inspect cuts for contained fossils. (A paleontological monitor is defined as an individual who has experience in the collection and salvage of fossil materials.) The paleontological monitor shall work under the direction of a qualified paleontologist. The monitor shall be onsite on at least a half-time basis during the original cutting of previously undisturbed sediments of moderately sensitive geologic formations (e.g., unnamed river terrace deposits and the Mission Valley Formation) to inspect cuts for contained fossils. However, neither of these rock units have been mapped within the Project APE and are therefore not anticipated to be impacted during construction. The monitor shall be onsite on at least a quarter-time basis during the original cutting of previously undisturbed sediments of low sensitivity geologic formations (e.g., Lindavista Formation and Santiago Peak Volcanics [metasedimentary portion only]) to inspect cuts for contained fossils. However, these deposits have not been mapped within the Project APE and are therefore not anticipated to be impacted during construction. The monitor shall periodically (every several weeks) inspect original cuts in deposits with an unknown resource sensitivity (i.e., Quaternary alluvium). In the event that fossils are discovered in unknown, low, or moderately sensitive formations, the Applicant shall increase the per-day field monitoring time. Conversely, if fossils are not discovered, the monitoring, at the discretion of the City’s Deputy City Manager/Development Services Director or its designee, shall be reduced. A paleontological monitor is not needed during grading of rocks with no resource sensitivity (i.e., Santiago Peak Volcanics, metavolcanic portion). Negative Cultural and Paleontological Resources Inventory Report for the Sunbow II, Phase 3 Project, City of Chula Vista San Diego County, California 12612 April 2020 43 When fossils are discovered, the paleontologist (or paleontological monitor) shall recover them. In most cases, this fossil salvage can be completed in a short period of time. However, some fossil specimens (such as a complete whale skeleton) may require an extended salvage time. In these instances, the paleontologist (or paleontological monitor) shall be allowed to temporarily direct, divert, or halt grading to allow recovery of fossil remains in a timely manner. Because of the potential for the recovery of small fossil remains such as isolated mammal teeth, it may be necessary in certain instances and at the discretion of the paleontological monitor to set up a screen-washing operation on the site. Prepared fossils along with copies of all pertinent field notes, photos, and maps shall be deposited in a scientific institution with paleontological collections such as the San Diego Natural History Museum.
