Hello Rina, Thank you for your time during the AB52 consultation for the Land Use Redesignation and Homelessness Prevention Resources and Care Center project in the City of Fontana. The information provided herein is to be kept conﬁdential as part of AB52 which requires that any information – not just documents – submitted by a California Native American tribe during the environmental review process to not be included in the environmental document or otherwise disclosed by the lead agency or any other public agency to the public consistent with Gov. Code Sections 6254, subd.(r) and 6254.10. (Pub. Resources Code § 21082.3, subd. (c)(1)). We ask that the information be included and kept in a conﬁdential appendix to be mentioned in the public document but not included. This conﬁdential appendix shall be available for use to those associated to the project but no entity outside of the project. As stated in the Public Resource Code section 21080.3.1. (a) The Legislature ﬁnds and declares that California Native American tribes traditionally and culturally afﬁliated with a geographic area may have expertise concerning their tribal cultural resources and an area that has cultural value. We are a California Native American tribe with an ancestral connection (higher degree of connection than traditionally and culturally afﬁliated) to the project area as we are lineal descendants to the village(s) within and around the project area. Since subsurface activities are planned to occur for this project that have potential to impact TCRs, we are providing tribal archive information to your agency to identify the high cultural sensitivity of the project location and to explain our concerns with speciﬁc subsurface ground disturbance activities that have impacted and destroyed our tribal cultural resources in the past. Attached are documents from historic books, screenshots of historic maps and some explanatory text that was also verbally explained in the phone consultation for your project location to explain the cultural signiﬁcance of the area and the high amount of pre-historic human activity that occurred there. This Land Use Redesignation and Homelessness Prevention Resources and Care Center_1938map_ indicates the project location within the most prominent Gabrieleno communities of Hurungna and Wa-atngna whose land area is now known as the city of Fontana. All of our mainland villages (sans our island villages) overlapped each other to help facilitate the movement of tribal cultural resources throughout the landscape and also to our sister tribes outside of our traditional ancestral territory. Village use areas were usually shared between village areas and were commonly used by two or more adjoining villages depending on the type, quantity, quality, and availability of natural resources in the area. Therefore, human activity can be pronounced within the shared use areas due to the combined use by multiple villages and TCR’s may be present in the soil layers from the thousands of years of human activity within that landscape. This Land Use Redesignation and Homelessness Prevention Resources and Care Center_1881map_ indicates the project location area within Rancho Jurupa. All Ranchos were placed within ancient village locations because of the available human workforce and the abundant natural resources located in that area. The Rancho owners were granted the land and the inhabitants of the land for their labor force to raise wheat and corn with many of them cultivating vineyards to make wine and brandy. They also raised cattle and sheep, made leather goods and tanned hides, made soap and candles, and colored clothing and many other items that were shipped back to Spain. The natural resources included waterways, waterbodies, springs, elevated ground, food resources and resources included waterways, waterbodies, springs, elevated ground, food resources and land area for their cattle. We explained verbally during the consultation about how ranchos help identify ancient village locations but also have included documents and photos that provide information regarding what area and how Rancho Jurupa was located on our ancient village of Hurungna and Wa-atngna. The Land Use Redesignation and Homelessness Prevention Resources and Care Center_1881map_ and Land Use Redesignation and Homelessness Prevention Resources and Care Center_1938map_shows the many trade routes around the project area. Trade routes were heavily used by our Tribe for movement of trade items, visiting of family, going to ceremony, accessing recreation areas, and accessing foraging areas. Within and around these routes contained seasonal or permanent ramadas or trade depots, seasonal and permanent habitation areas, and often still contain isolated burials and cremations from folks who died along the trail. These isolated burials are not associated with a village community burial site or ceremonial burial site, rather the location is simply where the person died and was buried where they died. Therefore, isolated burials are more concentrated and likely to occur in proximity to our trade routes, especially the major trade routes. Trade routes are considered a “cultural landscape”, as stated in section 21074. (a) and are protected under AB52 as a tribal cultural resource. The Land Use Redesignation and Homelessness Prevention Resources and Care Center_1938map_ indicates the hydrography or waterways that existed around the project area. All water sources were used by our Tribe for life sustenance. Along these watercourses and water bodies occurred seasonal or permanent hamlets, seasonal or permanent trade depots, ceremonial and religious prayer sites, and burials and cremation sites of our ancestors. These activities occurred around water, both inland and coastal, because these water areas create unique habitats and riparian corridors that provide an abundance of food and medicine resources along with aesthetically peaceful areas with running water, shade trees, and shelter. Larger water bodies were high attractants for human activity and the banks and shores of these water bodies have a higher than average potential for encountering Tribal Cultural Resources of artifacts and human remains during ground disturbing activities. Waterways are a “cultural landscape”, as stated in section 21074. (a) and are protected under AB52 as a tribal cultural resource. Due to the project site being located within and around the sacred Communities (Hurungna,Wa-atngna), adjacent to sacred water courses and major traditional trade routes, there is a high potential to impact Tribal Cultural Resources still present within the soil from the thousands of years of prehistoric activities that occurred within and around these Tribal Cultural landscapes. Therefore, to avoid 2project's ground disturbing activities and pursuant to our consultation, we have provided to the Lead Agency substantial evidence that the proposed project may have a signiﬁcant impact on our TCRs. . . "tribal cultural resources" are deﬁned as (1) "sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places and objects with cultural value to a California Native American tribe" that are included in the state or local register of historical resources or that are determined to be eligible for inclusion in the state register; and (2) resources determined by the lead agency, in its discretion, to be signiﬁcant on the basis of criteria for listing in the state register of historical resources. Pub Res C §21074(a). A lead agency's determination whether a resource meets the criteria for listing in the state register must be supported by substantial evidence and must consider the signiﬁcance of the resource to the tribe. Pub Res C §21074(a)(2). A "cultural landscape" may qualify as a tribal cultural resource to the extent it is "geographically deﬁned in terms of the size and scope of the landscape." Pub Res C §21074(b)Moreover, Public Resources Code (“PRC”) Section 21084.2 states that “[a] project with an effect that may cause a substantial adverse change in the signiﬁcance of a tribal cultural resource is a project that may have a signiﬁcant effect on the environment.” A project that may have a signiﬁcant effect on the environment requires appropriate mitigation. (PRC § 21082.3(b).) Through the consultation process, AB 52 authorized California Native American tribes to assist lead agencies in identifying, interpreting, and determining the signiﬁcance of TCRs. (See AB 52, Legislative Digest.) Unless the environmental document includes protective measures agreed on during the consultation process, "if substantial evidence demonstrates" the project "will cause" a signiﬁcant effect to a TCR, the agency must "consider" feasible mitigation measures "pursuant to" Pub Res C §21084.3(b). "pursuant to" Pub Res C §21084.3(b). As well, Consultation is not deemed concluded for purposes of CEQA until the parties agree to measures to mitigate or avoid a signiﬁcant effect on a tribal cultural resource, or when a party concludes, after a reasonable effort, that mutual agreement cannot be reached. (PRC §21080.3.2(b).) Any mitigation measures agreed on during the consultation process must be recommended by lead agency staff for inclusion in the environmental document and the mitigation monitoring and reporting program for the project pursuant to section 21082.3(a) of the PRC. Moreover, now that consultation has begun, as the lead agency, you may certify an EIR or adopt a mitigated negative declaration for the subject project (which may have a signiﬁcant impact on a tribal cultural resource ) only after consultation has concluded. (PRC §21082.3(d).) As part of the consultation, we have requested any and all information that the lead agency may possess or has access to attain regarding the history of the subsurface soils that will be impacted as part this project’s ground disturbance activities. The key information we are requesting is information about whether the “original” soils of the project location have been “removed” and “replaced” by new soils (e.g. engineered, cleaned, imported) or have the original soils just been excavated, placed onsite and then “backﬁlled” into the same location. If documents exists about the original soils having been removed from the project’s footprint and all new construction will be within soils that do not contain the original soils, our concerns for ground disturbance activities are reduced. In the absence of documentation or if it is known the original soils are still present within the project footprint, protective measures shall be created and implemented. Please ﬁnd attached the proposed mitigation measures for the subject project. Once you have reviewed them, please provide written notiﬁcation to the Tribe stating whether and to what extent you will include and require the proposed mitigations for TCR for the subject project so that we may conclude our consultation, and if you do not agree with the mitigations as proposed, so that we may continue our consultation discussions in an effort to reach an agreement.

Hello Ms. Leung, Thank you for contacting the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians (SMBMI) regarding the above referenced project. SMBMI appreciates the opportunity to review the project documentation, which was received by our Cultural Resources Management Department on March 27,2023, pursuant to CEQA (as amended, 2015) and CA PRC 21080.3.1. The proposed project area exists within Serrano ancestral territory and, therefore, is of interest to the Tribe. However, due to the nature and location of the proposed project, and given the CRM Department’s present state of knowledge, SMBMI does not have any concerns with the project’s implementation, as planned, at this time. As a result, SMBMI requests that the following language be made a part of the project/permit/plan conditions: CUL MMs 1. In the event that cultural resources are discovered during project activities, all work in the immediate vicinity of the ﬁnd (within a 60-foot buffer) shall cease and a qualiﬁed archaeologist meeting Secretary of Interior standards shall be hired to assess the ﬁnd. Work on the other portions of the project outside of the buffered area may continue during this assessment period. Additionally, the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians Cultural Resources Department (SMBMI) shall be contacted, as detailed within TCR-1, regarding any pre-contact and/or historic-era ﬁnds and be provided information after the archaeologist makes his/her initial assessment of the nature of the ﬁnd, so as to provide Tribal input with regards to signiﬁcance and treatment. 2. If signiﬁcant pre-contact and/or historic-era cultural resources, as deﬁned by CEQA (as amended, 2015), are discovered and avoidance cannot be ensured, the archaeologist shall develop a Monitoring and Treatment Plan, the drafts of which shall be provided to SMBMI for review and comment, as detailed within TCR-1. The archaeologist shall monitor the remainder of the project and implement the Plan accordingly. 3. If human remains or funerary objects are encountered during any activities associated with the project, work in the immediate vicinity (within a 100-foot buffer of the ﬁnd) shall cease and the County Coroner shall be contacted pursuant to State Health and Safety Code §7050.5 and that code enforced for the duration of the project. TCR MMs 1. The San Manuel Band of Mission Indians Cultural Resources Department (SMBMI) shall be contacted, as detailed in CR-1, of any pre-contact and/or historic-era cultural resources discovered during project implementation, and be provided information regarding the nature of the ﬁnd, so as to provide Tribal input with regards to signiﬁcance and treatment. Should the ﬁnd be deemed signiﬁcant, as deﬁned by CEQA (as amended, 2015), a cultural resources Monitoring and Treatment Plan shall be created by the archaeologist, in coordination with SMBMI, and all subsequent ﬁnds shall be subject to this Plan. This Plan shall allow for a monitor to be present that represents SMBMI for the remainder of the project, should SMBMI elect to place a monitor on-site. 2. Any and all archaeological/cultural documents created as a part of the project (isolate records, site records, survey reports, testing reports, etc.) shall be supplied to the (isolate records, site records, survey reports, testing reports, etc.) shall be supplied to the applicant and Lead Agency for dissemination to SMBMI. The Lead Agency and/or applicant shall, in good faith, consult with SMBMI throughout the life of the project. Note: San Manuel Band of Mission Indians realizes that there may be additional tribes claiming cultural afﬁliation to the area; however, San Manuel Band of Mission Indians can only speak for itself. The Tribe has no objection if the agency, developer, and/or archaeologist wishes to consult with other tribes in addition to SMBMI and if the Lead Agency wishes to revise the conditions to recognize additional tribes. Please provide the ﬁnal copy of the project/permit/plan conditions so that SMBMI may review the included language. This communication concludes SMBMI’s input on this project, at this time, and no additional consultation pursuant to CEQA is required unless there is an unanticipated discovery of cultural resources during project implementation. If you should have any further questions with regard to this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me at your convenience, as I will be your Point of Contact (POC) for SMBMI with respect to this project.

The proposed Homelessness Prevention Resources Project (Project) is located within the ancestral territory and traditional use area of the Cahuilla and Serrano people of the Morongo Band of Mission Indians. Tribal cultural resources are non-renewable resources and therefore of high importance to the Morongo Tribe, therefore, tribal participation (a.k.a. tribal monitors) is recommended during all ground disturbing activities. We look forward to working with the City to protect these irreplaceable resources out of respect for ancestors of the Morongo people who left them there, and for the people of today and for generations to come. Projects within this area are potentially sensitive for cultural resources regardless of the presence or absence of remaining surface artifacts and features. Our office requests to initiate government-to- government consultation under Senate Bill (SB) 18 (California Government Code § 65352) and Assembly Bill (AB) 52 (California Public Resources Code § 21080.3.1) and requests the following from the City to ensure meaningful consultation: • Currently proposed Project design and Mass Grading Maps • A records search conducted at the appropriate California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) center with at least a 1.0-mile search radius from the project boundary. If this work has already been done, please furnish copies of the cultural resource documentation (ArcMap Shapefiles, reports and site records) generated through this search so that we can compare and review with our records to begin productive consultation. • Tribal participation (a.k.a. tribal monitors) during the pedestrian survey and testing, if this fieldwork has not already taken place. In the event that archaeological crews have completed this work, our office requests a copy of the current Phase I study or other cultural assessments (including the cultural resources inventory) • Shapefiles of the Projects area of effect (APE) • Geotechnical Report This letter does not conclude consultation. Upon receipt of the requested documents the MBMI THPO may further provide recommendations and/or mitigation measures.
