Travis [iravis.Bio3 �sYaYe. o.usj <br />Tn gngda 6eAantoni <br />-c <br />Subject: RE: Sec 35: TUS. RSQW <br />Ms. Bellantoni, <br />Thank you for the gentle reminder. I apologize for the delay. <br />rent Fn 6 ZZ '01Z 1 Z' P I <br />To the best of my knowledge, there are no T &E species located on or near the site. However, the area is known to be <br />occupied or utilized by Swift Fox, a Colorado listed species of concern that favors short grass prairie. Please insure that no <br />burrow sites are noted prior to digging, as Swift fox may have pups at this time of year. <br />Thanks again, and please let me know if I can be of further assistance. <br />TralVis Black <br />Area T111dWe.ilanager <br />Colorado Parks and TT 1ldhfe <br />1500 S. _Main <br />Lamar. CO 8105: <br />i - 19)336 -6603 _ <br />The Colorado Natural Heritage Program at Colorado State University was <br />contacted to perform a database search for rare and threatened species. The Texas <br />Horned Lizard was the only rare and /or imperiled species found within a two -mile <br />radius of the proposed site. The lizard was sighted in December 1997 and is rated as <br />secure rather than threatened species. <br />The cottonwood stands along the Arkansas Rive and John Martin Reservoir <br />are known habitats for the bald eagle and various plover species. The proposed site <br />does not include a cottonwood stand and is not adjacent to either water body or <br />associated tributaries. <br />01 <br />
