IV. C~NS~ULTATI(]N ~CIST~R~Y
The history of consultation with the US Fish and Wildlife Service related to water depletions is
listed in the aquatic Biological Assessment for the project (Healy 2007)..
V. SENSITIVE SPECIES CONSIDERED IN TILE A.NA,LYSIS
The followin list includes sensitive species, or their habitats, that are located on tlae White River
g
National Forest ~Tab1e 2}. A review was conducted of available information to assemble
occurrence records, describe habitat needs and ecological requirements, and determ.rne whether
f eld reconnaissance is needed to complete the analysis, Sources of inforration may include
Forest Service records and fries, the State Natural Heritage grogram database, state wildlife
agency information, and published resear~cla.

No further analysis is needed for species that are not known or suspected to occur in the project
area, and for which no suitable habitat is present. The following table (Table 3) summarizes the
