CARMEL – As soon as the presence of red-legged frogs in an irrigation pond near a construction site at Palo Corona Regional Park's front entrance was confirmed, Monterey Peninsula Regional Park District halted the building project and called in agencies who have since taken steps to protect the federally listed species. Regional Park District General Manager Rafael Payan said that the district is working with SWCA environmental consultants and local biologists to develop best management practices to forward to the regulatory agency U.
