sss <br />MINED LAND WILDLIFE STATEMENT/EVALUATIO~(Revised) III III III IIIIIIIIII <br />for limited impact and select regular mine applications <br />The following information pertaining to wildlife is provided for use by Hined Land <br />Reclamation Board in their consideration of a mining permit for: <br />PROWERS COUNTY - Bates Pit/open sand and gray <br />Name/Type and Location of Mine <br />Wildlife Species list: <br />Pheasant <br />Bobwhite <br />Scaled quail <br />Rabbit <br />Mourning dove <br />T23S, R42w <br /> <br />Raptors (mostly transient - however several Burrowing owls were <br />observed at the pit and may be nesting in holes along <br />the pit wall) <br />Various non game birds and mammals <br />Endangered/critical species/impacted: <br />None that we are aware of. <br />~~ i~ r <br />~~J..;.ad ~ 1 <br />JUiI 17 1983 <br />Critical habitats/vegetative communities impaCEed: <br />None that we are aware of. <br />Assessment of impact: <br />MI!•~G~ ! e,nlJ R~CLAMP.TIO~tl <br />Colo. Dep±. o! ~~!s4ura! Rsse~~rcee <br />Minimal, due to it's location in a grazed shortgrass-sage habitat type. <br />Mine Reclamation recommendations (include key species/habitats for which restoration <br />is designed). <br />Due to it's proximity to irrigated fields where pheasant and quail occur, the reclamation <br />of this pit could be a benefit to these small game species and numerous non game animals. <br />I recommend that the pit be graded and sloped to 3:1 or less. The area should be reseeded <br />to native grasses that enhance pheasant nesting (e.g. Sand Bluest em, Tall Wheat Jose, Switch- <br />grass, and Side Oats Gramma) along with Yellow Clover and Ladak alfalfa. Obviously, an <br />elimination of grazing would be ideal, but some type of restriction, perhaps small enclosures, <br />would be helpful. Establishment of some type of thickets is highly recommmended since they <br />provide both food and cover. Plum is the ideal species to plant, but Buffaloberry and <br />Chokecherry are also good. Wild Rose and Sandhill Cherry can also be used. The planting <br />of trees like Russian O1•ive and Cottonless Cottonwood would benefit raptors and other bird <br />species and is recommended. Although not as beneficial as thickets, brushpiles can also be <br />used to provide Wildlife cover. <br />Prepared By: Bryant D. Will.
