1 Wildlife Connectivity Assessment Bakersfield to Palmdale Project Section Presenters: Bill Goggin and John ko May 2017
2 HIGH-SPEED RAIL: Connecting California
3 STUDY AREA Tehachapi Mountains» Critical Linkage Approximately 80 miles (Bakersfield to Palmdale)» 74% At-Grade» 14% Elevated» 12% Underground
4 PROJECT DESIGN FEATURES At-Grade Sections At-Grade Fill Section Tunnel Sections At-Grade Cut Section Double Bore Tunnel Single Bore Tunnel
5 PROJECT DESIGN FEATURES Bridge and Viaduct Segments Viaduct Rendering Viaducts Profile
6 REGIONAL CORRIDOR STUDY Missing Linkage Study» Cost Raster Data Land Cover Road Density Elevation Topographic Position» Least Cost Corridors Mountain Lion Mule Deer American Badger Western Gray Squirrel San Joaquin Kit Fox Blunt-nosed Leopard Lizard Tipton Kangaroo Rat Listed Species
7 REGIONAL CORRIDORS Tehachapi Linkage Design» Based on least cost corridors Conserved and Protected Lands Future Conservation Dedication
8 HOW TO MEASURE PERMEABILITY? How do we differentiate? Bakersfield to Palmdale Permeability» 74% of alignment at-grade segments and 26% (viaducts and tunnels)» 62 crossing opportunities (green arrows) - 53 viaducts and 9 tunnels
9 METHODS - LOCAL PERMEABILITY ASSESSMENT (LPA) Movement Cost Data» Land cover type» Road density» Elevation» Topographic position Focal species» Mt. Lion» Mule deer» Badger» Blunt-nosed leopard lizard» San Joaquin kit fox» Desert tortoise» Tipton K-rat» Desert kit fox» Western gray squirrel Listed Species 6 km Green = origin and destination habitat Red = wildlife movement habitat
10 CORRIDOR MODEL FUNCTION OUTPUTS Using ArcGIS Corridor function Existing Conditions Project
