Fish and Wildlife <br />• A site-specific wildlife statement was completed by District Wildlife <br />Manager of the Colorado Division of Wildlife in July 1978 (see Section 2.04.11). <br />Ertec, in August 1981, performed a literature search in regard to endangered <br />species in the Yampa River. Also in August 1981, Ertec performed a recon- <br />naissance raptor nest survey. <br />Prime Farm Land <br />Determination of no prime farm land in area was made by Thomas Priest, <br />State Soil Scientist, U. S. Soil Conservation Service, in January 1981 (refer to <br />Section 2.04.9). <br />Alluvial Valley Floors <br />Reconnaissance level survey was performed by Ertec in July and August 1981 <br />by traversing drainages, di99ing in alluvium, and examining aerial photography. <br />• Also, the 100-year flood plain line was determined (refer to Section 2.05.8). <br />Culverts, Ponds, and Ditches <br />Survey of present facilities was performed by Dismuke & Dismuke, consulting <br />engineers, in 1981. Ertec analyzed data and performed calculations~on culverts, <br />ponds and ditches; and EnecoTech Inc. conducted erosion and sedimentation studies <br />in 1984, 1985, and 1986. Detailed discussion is presented in Section 2.05.3. <br />Slope Stability and Haul Road Analysis <br />Haul road stability was evaluated by CLT Thompson in 1976, Ertec in 1981, <br />Fox in 1982, and EnecoTech in 1986. The road was surveyed by Joe Ficklin in <br />1981. Detailed discussion of these issues is presented in Section 2.05.3, and <br />all individual reports are on file at CMLRD and in Sun Coal Company's Arvada <br />office. <br />u <br />- 3 - (Rev. 5/86) <br />
