strictly followed to prevent possible effects on livestock and wildlife. Addi- <br /> tionally, when restricted-use herbicides are used, they are applied in an <br /> approved manner by trained and licensed applicators. <br /> 4.6.1 .7 Poisons, Toxic Materials <br /> With the exception of rodentcides used on commercial winter wheat seed, poisons <br /> will not be used within the proposed mine plan area for rodent or predator con- <br /> trol by Trapper Mine unless severe depredation of newly revegetated areas occurs. <br /> Trapping of furbearers may be allowed in accordance with applicable regulations. <br /> One waste pond is located immediately west of the shop and south of the office <br /> area (Map M13) . The pond contains small quantities of waste oil that collects on <br /> the pond surface. The pond was constructed in 1974 and has been in continuous <br /> use since that time. It has been checked weekly and there is no evidence that <br /> wildlife have attempted to use it in any way. For this reason, fencing is not <br /> planned. The pond will continue to be monitored for tracks or other evidence of <br /> wildlife use and will subsequently be fenced if necessary. <br /> 4.6.2 Physical Improvements For Wildlife <br /> Physical improvements for wildlife will be provided to draw animals away from <br /> newly revegetated areas to promote reclamation success. The potential difficulty <br /> with this is that animals may be attracted from other areas to the improved areas <br /> resulting in an actual local population increase. Therefore, improvement sites <br /> must be carefully selected and distributed to avoid this difficulty. <br /> Any major change or addition in the proposed mitigative measures will be sub- <br /> mitted to the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Division for review prior to <br /> implementation. <br /> 4-153 <br /> REVISED FEB 13 '$ <br />
