6.4.8 Exhibit H <br /> Wildlife Information <br /> Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife (CDPW) provided comment in a <br /> September 2, 2012 correspondence describing potential impacts, recommended <br /> survey protocol and actions to protect nesting burrowing owls and a golden eagle <br /> nest. Quentin Springer of CDPW visited the site with a property owner on <br /> September 2, 2012 and confirmed on October 29, 2015 that the comments remained <br /> appropriate for the site. The prairie dog colony in which burrowing owls may nest is <br /> on property owned by Doug Thacker to the west of the subject property. Prairie dog <br /> burrows were not observed on the subject property. The empty golden eagle nest is <br /> located outside the proposed permit boundary. The radius of impact to the nest <br /> does not include the mesas and the proposed southwest haul road is outside this <br /> area. <br /> Fremont will monitor the area for prairie dog communities, burrowing owl <br /> nests and empty golden eagle nests during mining. <br /> The Colorado Natural Heritage Program at Colorado State University <br /> performed a database search for rare and threatened species. The report is <br /> provided. <br /> 12 <br /> Revised October 3, 2016 <br />
