<br />models have been developed for the: Yellow Warbler,
<br />
<br />Meadow Vole, Screech Owl, Mallard-winter, Mallard-breeding and
<br />
<br />Pheasant.
<br />
<br />As agreed to in the last interagency meeting (March 15,
<br />
<br />1990) for species model review, one more species model wi II be
<br />
<br />deve loped to represent changes to catta i I wet I and hab i tat types.
<br />
<br />D. ADDITIONAL WETLAND ASSESSMENT
<br />
<br />The Colorado SCS Wetland Evaluation Procedure is also being
<br />
<br />used to track the qua I i tat i ve va I ue of changes to wet I and from
<br />
<br />existing and planned values In the implementation of sal inity
<br />
<br />control measures or practices.
<br />
<br />E. TRACKING
<br />
<br />A Tracking System was developed to
<br />
<br />record the cover types,
<br />
<br />HSI's, wetland values, wi Idl ife mitigation practices and any losses
<br />
<br />of habitat.
<br />
<br />This system will
<br />
<br />then tally the qual itative and
