%ewmo- nt-, <br /> CC&V Wildlife Protection Plan <br /> Large ungulate access to the tops of high-walls, adjacent to significant wildlife habitat, should be restricted by fencing <br /> or berms. In areas where fencing is determined necessary, the fence will be an eight-foot tall wildlife fence with <br /> wildlife escape ramps or gates as necessary. Planned fencing locations and wildlife escape ramps are defined in <br /> Technical Revision 91. <br /> Access to mine portals and ventilation raises shall be inspected for the presence of bats or bat habitat. Pre-activity <br /> reviews should be performed before commencing activity in historic mine openings. A copy of the Site Evaluation <br /> Datasheet for Bats used by the Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) is included in Appendix B and may be used as a <br /> guide for conducting pre-activity reviews. <br /> Storm-water control sumps, drilling exploration sumps, and any other excavations should be adequately bermed to <br /> discourage entry and graded with slopes no steeper that 1:1 to facilitate wildlife egress. <br /> 2.4 Haul Roads and Access Roads <br /> Care shall be taken to avoid contact with any wildlife on or near roads. If safely possible, signage and speed <br /> restrictions will be posted in areas known to be frequented by wildlife. <br /> For the safety of both wildlife and personnel, mine site employees shall be notified when working in an area whereby <br /> the presence of wildlife has been noted. <br /> 2.5 Buildings and Administrative Areas <br /> Care shall be taken to properly dispose of food waste in order to reduce wildlife attraction <br /> Rodent control methods should be employed to minimize hygiene hazards and reduce predator (such as fox) <br /> attractions. <br /> CC&V personnel and contractors must not feed wildlife (see Section 2.6 below). <br /> 2.6 Property-Wide Considerations <br /> All spills and releases shall be cleaned up immediately to ensure wildlife do not come in direct or indirect (mobilized <br /> through storm-water runoff) contact with the product. Please refer to CC&V's Spill Prevention, Control, and <br /> Countermeasure Plan for further guidance. <br /> Hunting of any kind is strictly prohibited on CC&V property. <br /> Herding or intentionally chasing or harassing wildlife is prohibited. <br /> Colorado state law prohibits feeding wildlife. Under state law, violators face a $50 fine. <br /> In addition to the impact on fauna, interacting with wildlife creates a potential safety implication to workplace <br /> personnel. <br /> CC&V or contract personnel who are found to be interacting in an unapproved manner will incur disciplinary action in <br /> accordance with the Newmont North America Employment Handbook up to termination. <br /> Department THIS DOCUMENT IS UNCONTROLLED IN HARD COPY FORMAT Doc Id NNA-CCV-ER-Plan-E_042 <br /> CCV S&ER Date of This Issue 2/20/2019 Date of Next Review 2/20/2022 Page 4 of 13 <br />
