CPW recommends the development and implementation of a noxious weed <br /> control plan for the site. It is recommended that all disturbed soils in the area <br /> be monitored for noxious weeds and noxious weeds should be actively <br /> controlled until native plant revegetation and reclamation is achieved. It is <br /> recommended that all areas disturbed by the development be revegetated <br /> with native plant species. <br /> If fill material will be used in the project, CPW recommends using a native fill <br /> material that would be conducive to growing native vegetation. Non-native <br /> vegetation can out-compete native vegetation and thus degrade valuable <br /> wildlife habitat. <br /> CPW also recommends that at each trench a gradual slope be in place leading <br /> out. This would allow any wildlife that happens to fall in the trenches to <br /> escape with ease. It is also recommended that any trenches or holes created <br /> from excavation be closed and reclaimed as soon as work is complete to <br /> minimize impacts to wildlife." <br /> I commit to following all of the above stated recommendations from the CPW. <br /> Each of the recommendation made by the CPW for (1) avoiding excess erosion [see <br /> Exhibit 6.3.3 (1) (c)], (2) avoiding disturbance of more land than necessary [see <br /> Exhibits 6.3.3 (1) (f); 6.3.4 (1)(a); 6.3.4 (1) (c) (ii)], (3) re-using the original topsoil <br /> [6.3.4 (1) (c) (v)] and (4) planting only native vegetation [6.3.4 (1) (c) (ii)] can be found <br /> in our current mining and reclamation plans. <br /> In addition, the following CPW recommendations are included in the permit <br /> application; At each trench a gradual slope will be in place to allow any wildlife to <br /> escape should they fall into the trench, [see Exhibit B, 6.3.2(d)]; all disturbed soils in <br /> the area will be monitored for noxious weeds and noxious weeds will be actively <br /> Y <br /> controlled until native plant revegetation and reclamation is achieved [see Exhibit <br /> 6.3.4 (1) (c) (iii)]. <br /> Colorado Dept. of Public Health and Environment <br /> Permit not needed. <br /> Colorado Dept. of Public Health and Environment.
