EXHIBIT H <br /> WILDLIFE STATEMENT. <br /> The following information is provided in lue of a was <br /> received in response to our request for a Colorado Parks and <br /> Wildlife Wildlife Statement . Environment , Inc . Has requested <br /> one from the Southeast regional office in Pueblo and Michael <br /> Trujillo is working on one . As soon as it is received it will be <br /> placed in the file . <br /> Wildlife Information <br /> Wildlife resources on the affected land are limited to the <br /> existing ground cover of seasonal grasses, forbs some trees and <br /> shrubs on the affected area . Ground cover in this area is <br /> approximately 500 , at best . <br /> Use of the area by wildlife is minimal , as the area has been <br /> used as a salvage yard and sand and gravels mine for the last 30+ <br /> years . Properties surrounding the proposed permit area have been <br /> actively farmed or used continuously for the past several years <br /> as rural residential . <br /> Wildlife expected to be found on the property may include <br /> small rodents and mammals . There are no known threatened or <br /> endangered species on the property. Larger mammals would not be <br /> found on this site due to the lack of cover from predators and <br /> the distance from suitable habitats . <br /> Existing wildlife in the area is not expected to be <br /> significantly impacted by this proposed expansion of the existing <br /> permit . This will be a continuation of the activities currently <br /> on-site . Human activities and noise levels will not increase <br /> above what is currently occurring. Temporary and permanent losses <br /> to food and habitat is not expected to be significant as the area <br /> currently has limited potential for wildlife food and habitat . <br /> 22 <br />
