Location Narrative	A recon-level Rapid Assessment survey done in a regenerating blue oak woodland along Ponderosa Way. The area looks like it was cleared or burned of most trees (except for a few large blue oaks) many years ago and is now regenerating. The land is presently graded. The herb layer is mostly weedy annual grasses.
