Cougar Drive <br /> Pueblo West, CO 81007 <br /> RE: Ghost River Gravel Pit Wildlife Review <br /> Dear Ms. Schreiber, <br /> Thank you for allowing Colorado Parks& Wildlife(CPW)the opportunity to review this <br /> amendment application and discuss any wildlife concerns. The Ghost River Gravel Pit is located <br /> in an area with diverse wildlife populations. CPW species activity maps indicate that nearly 50 <br /> different wildlife species are found in this general area. With potential impact to this many <br /> different species,this application was carefully reviewed. <br /> My local District Wildlife Manager was able to discuss this project with you in depth via <br /> telephone. Its CPW's understanding that the amendment application will not cause any increases <br /> in traffic,disruption,or expansion of the gravel pit compared to current operating levels,thus <br /> wildlife impacts are negligible. This amendment will correctly identify acres of operation under <br /> the current lease. This project will not have any negative impacts to wildlife. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Michael D Brown <br /> Area Wildlife Manager <br /> Colorado Parks&Wildlife <br /> •oFSol. <br /> Heather Dugan,Acting Director,Colorado Parks and Wildlife I el t'glParks and Wildlife Commission:Carrie Besr'.ette Hauser,Chair•Dallas May,Vice•Cha r•Mane Haskett,Secretary•Taishya Adams <br /> Karen Bailey•Betsy Blecha•Gabriel Otero•Duke Phillips,IV•Richard Reading•James Jay Tutchton•Eden Vardy <br />
