Box 841 <br />Canon City, Co 81215 <br />Dear Ms. Bellantoni, <br />This letter is in response to your application for mining permit for Section 12 of <br />Township 19s, Range 70w in Fremont County. <br />Upon review of the application and site visit by myself and District Wildlife <br />Manager, Eric Harper, it is the opinion of the Division of Wildlife and it's staff that <br />impact to wildlife and wildlife habitat will be found from the actions proposed due to the <br />site location of this project. This site is closely related to an area of high use for certain <br />species of wildlife, mainly bighorn sheep. <br />The Division of Wildlife would like to be involved as much as possible to mitigate <br />impacts to this critical habitat. We would like to offer suggestions in reclaiming the area <br />to suitable conditions to promote a viable herd of Bighorn Sheep in the area, and offer <br />assistance in your project plans which would exercise as little impact as possible to the <br />area. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this issue. If you have any <br />questions, please feel free to reach officer Harper or myself at 719-561 X909. <br />Sin eretly~ ~~ ~ ~ ~/ r, <br />evin Kaczmar ~, <br />Habitat Biologist <br />Area 11 <br />DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES, Greg E.
