• of adjacent ranges to absorb the displaced wildlife is not known, <br /> However, displacement ie temporary and forage production on <br /> reclaimed sites will equal or ezceed that found on natural sites, <br />The ultimate effect on adjacent areas is eapected to be positive <br />since the greater availability of forage on reclaimed sites will <br />relieve pressures on adjacent areas. <br />Minimization of Impacts on Specific Wildlife Resources <br />Temporary negative impacts are inevitable on wildlife <br />inhabiting the proposed permit and adjacent areas. With proper <br />reclamation, enhancement of wildlife habitat is eapected to occur. <br />Specific mitigation and enhancement measures with respect to <br />• particular species are discussed below, <br />Small and Medium Sized Maamials <br />Mining destroys food and cover needed by these species, <br />Removal of topsoil causes the moat immediate damage and results in <br />some mortality of the noomobile species Listed in Table 17, Species <br />of Mammals that Occur or are Likely to Occur on Energy Mine No. 3 <br />Study Area, The more mobile species will be displaced from these <br />areas and will attempt to reestablish themselves on undisturbed <br />areas, <br />• <br />2.05 - 121 <br />
