Hi Robin,
I need to follow the City’s protocols for responding to Public Records Act requests, so I will submit the responsive information to the City Clerk momentarily. The City Clerk’s Office
will then provide the communications and correspondence with USFWS to you.
Happy holidays,
Greg

RE: Canyon Loop Trail Project, California Gnatcatcher ITP
Greg,
As you know, this project is active. I had the pleasure of meeting with Ryan Wright last week along with another resident. We were grateful for Ryan's attention and help.
This morning, I sent an email request for information to Ryan. His automatic email message states he is out of the office until December 5th.
Will you please help me obtain this information today or tomorrow? I would like to come in to observe these records if they cannot be assembled quickly and sent to me via email in PDF
format. I request this information PDF to this email address, in any case.
PUBLIC INFO REQUEST
I request all forms of communication and correspondence between the City of Diamond Bar and anyone in the United States Fish and Wildlife agency, regarding the presence of the California
Gnatcatcher in the city and on the Canyon Loop Trail. Specifically, I wish to learn HOW the determination that an Incidental Take Permit was not necessary, occurred.
I appreciate the City's response and transparency in this matter.
Thank you.
Robin

” intersection at the Grand View Trail. In addition, photos of each item are provided below as reference. Please keep in mind I provide this as a reminder based on the upcoming February
2, 2023 deadline for the project. Any unfinished work or site clean up after that date will result in liquidated damages of $1,000 per day, yet we hope to avoid that process.
Please send me your remaining material transmittals over the weekend with photos and properly cover the dirt spoils tomorrow for potential rain over the weekend. Thank You
