Based on comments received from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) in October 1998, SCC <br />committed to conducting a boreal toad survey in the spring of 1999. PRES contacted both the UDFWS <br />and CDOW to discuss the acceptable survey methodology and scheduling of the survey. <br />Three separate surveys were conducted: the first in late -April, the second in mid-May, and the last in <br />eraly-June. The three surveys, plus a nocturnal search, yielded no evidence of boreal toad presence on the <br />IIW South Expansion area. The final report, 1999 Boreal Toad Survey, is included in Tab 11, Wildlife, as <br />Appendix 11-2. <br />REFERENCES <br />Andrews, R. and R. Righter. 1992. Colorado Birds.
