Barnhart <br />Barnhart Agency, Inc. <br />212 West 13th Street <br />Pueblo, Co 81003 <br />Dear Mr. Barnhart, <br />iii iiiiiiiiniiiiii <br />For Wildlife <br />For People <br />Upon review of the existing site and the expansion of the gravel pit on <br />Greenhorn Rd. by District Wildlife Manager, Darryl Crawford and myself on 11/30/99, <br />the Division of Wildlife and it's staff find no objection to the expansion of the existing <br />pit. According to our records, we find no Threatened or Endangered Fish or Wildlife <br />species located in the approximate area. <br />We would ask that the continued use of the catchment pond be a priority to <br />provide for various wildlife species which may inhabit the site. A suggestion to contour <br />the work area of the existing pit to channel runoff to the pond area would be a benefit, <br />by no means a requirement .From the Division of Wildlife's stand point, revegetation <br />efforts are a must to ensure the original habitat return to the site. <br />A copy of the reclamation plan was not with the packet 1 received on 11/12/99. If <br />the Division of Wildlife can offer assistance on reclamation advice to benefit wildlife we <br />would be more than happy to do so. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this issue. If you have any <br />questions, please feel free to reach officer Crawford or myself at 719-561-4909. <br />Sin rely, <br />Kevin Kaczmarek <br />Habitat Biologist <br />Area 11 <br />DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES, Greg E.
