We also recommend restricting well site visitations to portions of the day between 9:00 a.m. <br />and 4:00 p.m. during the lekking season (March 1 to June 1). <br />No significant impacts are anticipated on big game species. <br />Reclamation <br />The following identifies reclamation recommendations for the well sites and associated roads <br />and equipment access points. <br />The performance standard for reclamation success is the establishment of a self - sustaining, <br />vigorous, and diverse plant community on the site with a density sufficient to control erosion <br />and non- native plant invasion. Reclamation efforts on disturbed areas should include the <br />following: <br />On non- cropland, establish a uniform vegetative cover that reflects pre - disturbance or <br />reference area forbs, shrubs and grasses. <br />Fence livestock and /or wildlife out of newly reclaimed areas until reclamation <br />standards have been met and plants are capable of sustaining herbivory. <br />Census and assess the utilization of the reclaimed areas by target species such as <br />Columbian sharp - tailed grouse and nesting raptors. <br />Reclamation seed mixes <br />The CPW recommends a rangeland seed mix which contains a broad array of native grass, <br />forb, and shrub species desirable for wildlife, including Columbian sharp - tailed grouse and <br />greater sage - grouse. Use high diversity (10 species or more) reclamation seed mixes in <br />Columbian sharp - tailed grouse habitat. Bunchgrass over sod - forming grasses can be used in <br />seed mixes in order to provide more effective wildlife cover and to facilitate forb and shrub <br />establishment. Avoid aggressive non - native grasses in Columbian sharp - tailed grouse habitat <br />reclamation (e.g., intermediate wheatgrass, pubescent wheatgrass, crested wheatgrass, <br />smooth brume, etc.). A small percentage (5% - 10%) of the appropriate species of big <br />sagebrush should be re- seeded on disturbed sites. Reclamation of sage- grouse breeding <br />habitat should include a substantially higher- percentage of forbs than other areas. Native and <br />select non- native forbs and legumes should be considered a vital component of reclamation <br />seed mixes. Where slope is 10% or less, create seed mixes with approximately the following <br />percentages of plant types (ors a Pure live Seed Basis): grass =40%, shrub =309 , forbs =30% in <br />order to facilitate forb and shrub establishment. <br />Thanks again for the opportunity to comment on the proposed ground water monitoring wells. <br />If you have any further questions, please contact District Wildlife Manager, Justin Pollock at <br />(970) 629 -1247. <br />
