However, based on <br />~ information currently available, there is no reason to be optimistic. <br /> <br />Raptor populations, too, will decrease as a result of the concurrent <br />elimination of sagebrush habitat and the prey species common to that <br />habitat type. No definitive estimates of population change have been <br />made. In addition, some loss of Columbian sharp tail grouse will occur. <br />These birds are classed as "rare" under Wyoming law. <br /> <br />On balance, considering the potential adverse effects on all of the <br />fish and wildlife species which would be impacted by the Savery- <br />.Pot Hook Project, and recognizing that little could be done to prevent <br />or fully compensate for these losses, the Fish and Wildlife Service <br />must go on record in opposition to its construction. We appreciate the <br />opportunity to express these views and will be happy to meet with you <br />and discuss our position at any time. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br /> <br />eel CO Division of Wildlife, Denver, CO <br />WY Fish & Game Dept., Cheyenne, WY <br />AM; Salt Lake City, UT (ES) <br />Federal Aid, FWS, Denver, CO <br /> <br />6 <br />
