• C.pluration Pennit Application (P.emoval of 250 Tons or Less of Coal) <br />Road Construction - No road construction is contemplated in conjunction <br />with this drilling program. Some minor improvement to existing roads <br />may be required. <br />Drill Cutting and Debris Disposal - All equipment, supplies and debris <br />associated with the drilling project will be removed from the site. <br />Excess drill cuttings will be disposed of in the refuse dump at <br />the Dorchester fl Mine. <br />S) Threatened and Endangered Species - hone of the resident wildlife <br />species of the area are listed on, or are being considered for the <br />Federal or State Threatened or Endangered Species List. Peregrine <br />Falcons may migrate through the general area. however, the proposed <br />drilling activity will not adversely affect the species. <br />hlr. Scott Peterson, Colorado Natural Heritage P,•ogram was contacted <br />regarding the occurrence of threatened or endangered plans in the <br />region. He indicated that there are no recorded ocurrences of plant <br />species listed as threatened or endangered in the vicinity of the <br />proposed exploratory drilling. 'Three species (Eriooonum brandeaei, <br />Penston~er degeneri and Fiirabilis rotundifolia) included on notices of <br />review for potential listing have been reported, he::ever, to occur <br />• in the region. <br />Elevation of the drill sites range from 5720 feet to 6750 feet. <br />P, deaeneri and M. rotundifolia are reported to occur at lor:er elevations. <br />E. brandeQei has been recorded, hov,ever, up to 7000 feet. Due to <br />the limited amount of disturbance as a result of the exploratory drilling, <br />it is highly unlikely that this species will be affected. <br /> <br />
