EXHIBIT C - MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM <br />June 2023 C-5 SF Bay Fiber Optic Cables Project <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1 Timing: During terrestrial Project construction <br /> <br />2 1.4.2 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES <br /> <br />3 <br />4 <br /> <br />5 MM BIO-1: Provide Worker Environmental Awareness Training. Bandwidth shall <br />6 provide environmental awareness training before starting construction activities <br />7 for all construction personnel (including new personnel as they are added to the <br />8 Project) working on the terrestrial and marine Project components. This training <br />9 would be given by biological monitors (approved by CSLC staff) to help the <br />10 trainees understand the following: <br /> <br />11  Surrounding common and special-status species and their habitats <br />12  Sensitive natural communities and ESHAs <br />13  Applicable regulatory requirements <br />14  MMs designed to avoid or minimize impacts on sensitive resource areas <br /> <br />15 The training materials shall be developed and approved by CSLC staff at least <br />16 30 days before starting Project activities in the terrestrial and marine work areas. <br />17 The biological monitors shall maintain a list of all contractors who have been <br />18 trained and shall submit this list and the final training material to CSLC staff within <br />19 30 days after construction starts and shall provide an updated final list after <br />20 construction is completed. <br /> <br />21 The lead biological monitor, which would be the monitor with the most <br />22 professional experience if more than one monitor is selected for the Project, shall <br />23 be the main contact for reporting any special-status species observed in or near <br />24 the Project area by any employee or contractor. Bandwidth shall provide the <br />25 contact information for the lead biological monitor and the biological monitors <br />26 to on-site construction workers, USFWS, CDFW, and CSLC staff before <br />27 construction starts. <br /> <br />28 Location: Terrestrial and marine Project areas <br />29 Monitoring/Reporting Action: Training materials approved by CSLC staff at least <br />30 30 days before Project activities. <br />31 On-site biological monitor to submit list of trained personnel and training <br />32 materials to CSLC within 30 days of the start of construction and after <br />33 completion. <br />Potential Impact: Biological Resources – Impacts on special-status species and <br />habitats <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 8D8CF2E2-DF6D-4A11-B610-2B1544DD7C30
