the past with rainbow trout by the CDOW and probably contains about <br />75~ of that species. Other species in the reservoir are Black <br />Bullheads, Sunfish, Yellow Perch, Channel Catfish, Crappie, and <br />Largemouth Sass. Good Spring Creek and the Wilson Reservoir will <br />not be disturbed by the mining operation; therefore, no analysis on <br />the potential fisheries population or benthic fauna have been done. <br />Threatened and Endangered Species <br />Because no state or federally listed threatened or endangered <br />animal species are known to utilize the habitats present on the <br />permit area, it is unlikely that any impact will occur with respect <br />to those threatened and endangered species which are known to occur <br />on the region. <br />ITN biologists observed a single Perigrine Falcon hunting on the <br />mine site during summer field work in 1974 and 1975. There have <br />been no observations since 1975, and it is most likely that the <br />observations occurred during migration. <br />Bald Eagles are frequently observed along the White and Yampa <br />Rivers during the winter months and may rarely be found on the mine <br />site, although none have been reported. <br />Golden Eagles are known to occasionally hunt on the mine site but <br />are not listed as threatened or endangered. However, they are <br />included under the Bald Eagle Protection Act which basically gives <br />the Golden Eagle the same protection as the Bald Eagle. Golden <br />Eagle nests in the area have been identified by the CDOW and are <br />shown on the Wildlife Agency Information Map, (Map 14). <br />Correspondence from the CDOW concerning the Golden Eagles is set <br />forth in Exhibit 11, July 23, 1980 letter from Bill Clark of CDOW <br />to Colowyo concerning wildlife on the Colowyo mine and adjacent <br />areas. <br />The permit does not provide suitable nesting habitat for raptor <br />species, except for the cliffs along Good Spring Creek and the <br />south side of Streeter Draw. Raptors are known to occasionally <br />hunt on the site or migrate through the area. The primary impact <br />for raptor species will be loss of hunting habitat until mined <br />areas have been reseeded, but experience has indicated that the <br /> <br />2.04.11-47 <br />
