<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />..~ .," ... '\' " <br />;.).~U'''' <br /> <br />Response: <br /> <br />Mt. Elbert Canal as an open channel has been replaced by its alternate, <br />a buried conduit. This change will lessen significantly the influence <br />on wildlife migration. It eliminates the need for game crossing and <br />fencing requirements. The Otero Canal will have crossings at a number <br />of locations to facilitate the migration of game animals. The crossing <br />locations were recommended by the Fish and Wildlife Service and the <br />Colorado Division of Wildlife to coincide with historic game migration <br />routes. <br /> <br />4. Issue: Project access roads have been used illegally, in our <br />opinion, by some of the members of the Bureau and by the construction <br />workers. They used it as their private hunting ground during elk and <br />deer season and throughout the year. There has been poaching going <br />on by the use of these areas into the wilderness. <br /> <br />There has been instances when a group of construction workers and <br />possibly some Bureau employees would go in and lock the gate behind <br />them and use the area as their own private hunting ground. <br /> <br />Rais ed bv: <br /> <br />Name <br /> <br />RepresentinR <br /> <br />William J. Rose <br />*Tam Scott <br />*Stacy Standley <br /> <br />Fryingpan Valley Association <br />Colorado Rivers Council <br />Mayor of Aspen <br /> <br />Response: <br /> <br />The Bureau of Reclamation is concerned about the welfare of our wildlife <br />resources 0 It does not condone such activities on the part of its <br />employees and construction people. Such activities are difficult <br />to control. The Bureau will continue to make every effort to reduce <br />such activities to a minimum. <br /> <br />S. Issue: A professional, ecological concern for wildlife. terrestrial <br />as well as aquatic, is not evident in any of the three volumes. The <br />essential needs of wildlife, particularly that of big game animals. for <br />winter range have not been given proper consideration. Since the avail- <br />ability of winter range, perhaps more than any other single factor, <br />determines the survivability of big game animals, it would appear that <br />a sound and acceptable environmental statement would research, analyze. <br />and deal specifically with this problem culminating in responsible, <br /> <br />XI-440 <br />
