EXHIBIT H WILDLIFE INFORMATION <br /> The operator will consider the safety and protection of wildlife on site.No described critical <br /> species are known by this operator/applicant or landowner. The Colorado Division of Wildlife <br /> statement/evaluation was prepared and attached to this report in Exhibit "H". The overall impact <br /> to wildlife species should be minimal. <br /> 1. Significant Game Resources on the Affected Lands <br /> Mule deer, Scaled Quail, and Pronghorn antelope are probably the most critical game resource in <br /> this area. The current landscape offers very little ground cover which is useful for deer and other <br /> small mammals. The presence of the mining operation since the 2000s has likely led to the game <br /> wildlife being habituated to the operation. <br /> 2. Significant Non-Game Resources on the Affected Lands <br /> Small rodents, rabbits, snakes, and lizards are probably the most critical non-game resource in <br /> this area. Since there is very little ground cover,the value of the site for small animals is limited. <br /> A complete catalogue of resident wildlife, along with suggestions to mitigate the disturbance to <br /> said wildlife, are detailed in the correspondence attached from the Colorado Department of <br /> Natural Resources, Division of Wildlife. <br /> 3. Seasonal Use of Affected Lands <br /> No important seasonal use exists beyond seasonal rangeland pasture. <br /> 4. Presence and Estimated Population of Threatened or Endangered Species in the <br /> Area. <br /> None. <br /> 5. Fish Resources <br /> None. <br /> Robinson Gravel No 1 <br /> September 2018 H-1 <br />
