EXHIBIT H <br /> Notice has been sent to Colorado Parks and Wildlife concerning the proposed 112 <br /> gravel pit. Common species in northeast Colorado could include bird species of <br /> Cassin's sparrow, chestnut collared longspur, lark bunting, western meadowlark, <br /> ferruginous and Swainsan's hawks, and pheasants. Small mammals that might be <br /> found include white-tailed and black-tailed jackrabbit, badger, pronghorn <br /> antelope, coyote, swift fox, plains pocket gopher, long-tailed weasel, and several <br /> species of mice. Reptiles might include the western rattlesnake, race snake, <br /> western box turtle, and six-lined racerunner. Other animals and birds common to <br /> Yuma County could also be found at the site from time to time. <br /> Based on several visits to the site, no significant wildlife was observed. <br /> Other portions of land owner's property have trees and grass plantings which <br /> are serving to increase wildlife in the area. As this site is also seeded with <br /> grass the wildlife should continue to increase with the favorable habitat. <br />
