Colorado's Conservation Data Explorer Project Review Report <br /> Project ID: CODEX-3565 Review Date: 3/22/2024 01:34:18 PM <br /> Project Report: <br /> The information contained herein represents the results of a search of Colorado's Conservation Data <br /> Explorer(CODEX)and can be used as notice to anticipate possible impacts or identify areas of interest. <br /> This tool queries multiple conservation datasets and includes a synthesis of Colorado Natural Heritage <br /> Program (CNHP)and Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW)data for sensitive animal and plant species and <br /> natural communities. Care should be taken in interpreting these data. <br /> Please note that the absence of data for a particular area, species, or habitat does not necessarily mean <br /> that these natural heritage resources do not occur on or adjacent to the project site, rather that our files <br /> do not currently contain information to document their presence. CODEX information should not replace <br /> field studies necessary for more localized planning efforts, especially if impacts to wildlife habitat are <br /> possible. Although every attempt is made to provide the most current and precise information possible, <br /> please be aware that some of our sources provide a higher level of accuracy than others, and some <br /> interpretation may be required. CODEX data is constantly updated and revised. Please contact CNHP, <br /> CPW and our partners for assistance with interpretation of this report or to obtain more information. <br /> Disclaimer: <br /> 1. This is a preliminary environmental screening tool. It is not a substitute for the potential <br /> knowledge gained by having a biologist conduct a field survey of the project area. This review <br /> does not constitute environmental consultation (including federal consultation under the <br /> Endangered Species Act), land use permitting, or the review of site-specific projects by <br /> CNHP and CPW and our partners. <br /> 2. This Project Report is based on the project study area that was entered. The report must be <br /> updated if the project study area, location, or the type of project changes. <br /> 3. The Conservation Data Explorer(CODEX)data is constantly changing and being updated and is <br /> not intended to be the final word on the potential distribution of special status species. Colorado is <br /> large and diverse with plants, animals, and environmental conditions that are ever changing. <br /> Consequently, many areas may contain species that biologists do not know about or species <br /> previously noted in a particular area may no longer occur there. CODEX data contains <br /> information about species occurrences that have actually been reported to CNHP, CPW and our <br /> partners. Not all of Colorado has been surveyed for special status species, and surveys that have <br /> been conducted have varied greatly in scope and intensity. Such surveys may reveal previously <br /> undocumented population of species of special concern. <br /> Page 2 of 15 <br />
