Comment from Cindy Burrascano, Botanist, CNPS Representative
“In reviewing EIRs I have found species lists invaluable. They tell me something about the quality of the habitats being impacted and/or the skill of the person doing the surveying. In looking over a list included from a prior biological survey attached as an appendix on a document, I once found two listed species identified that had been "overlooked" in the more recent surveys. The project was redesigned. They are well worth the extra paper for a reviewer.”
