The predominant geologic unit in the footprint is undifferentiated Precambrian (Proterozoic) <br /> granodiorite. <br /> Primary vegetation units identified in the footprint are natural grassland and brush/montane scrub. <br /> Typical wildlife species observed to be present. Wildlife usage of the area is considered minimal due to <br /> the limited quantity and quality of the vegetation. Habitiat designation, per Colorado Division of <br /> Wildlife mapping is a low impact area. <br /> Wildfire hazard area designation is low moderate. <br /> Design <br /> The new overlook would utilize the existing parking lot access as permitted with CDOT. The current <br /> parking lot would be enlarged and a new driveway out would be built to get vehicles up to the top of <br /> Little Grouse Mountain. The driveway,stormwater controls and parking lots were designed by Haley <br /> and Aldrich, Inc. of Greenwood Village,Colorado. Please see enclosed approved for construction <br /> drawing set and construction specifications enclosed with application. <br /> Historic Structures <br /> CCVGMC is planning to relocate some of the historic structures and equipment from the AE Overlook to <br /> the new overlook. Relocation will involve dismantling,shipping and reassembling. Adequate <br /> foundations will be constructed for the structures. <br /> Schedule <br /> CCVGMC proposes a three year schedule for construction starting in 2017. <br /> Construction Impacts <br /> Import of construction materials will utilize existing approved truck routes. Tracking pads will be utilized <br /> to minimize impact on Highway 67. Sweeping of Highway 67 be done at the end of construction days as <br /> requested by CDOT personnel. <br />
