Hispanic community of Mesa County. Persons describing themselves as Hispanic or Latino <br />represented 10.0 percent of the population, considerably less than the Colorado state figure for <br />the same group, 1"1.1 percent. Blacks, American Indians, Asians and Pacific Islanders each <br />accounted for less than one percent of the population, below the comparable state figure in all <br />cases. The census counted 7.0 percent of the Mesa County population as living in families with <br />incomes below the poverty line, compazed to 6.2 percent for the entire state. Both minority and <br />low income populations are dispersed throughout the county. <br />Environmental Consequences/Miti ag lion: Minority and low-income populations of the county <br />aze small relative to state-wide averages and such populations aze dispersed throughout the <br />county. Therefore, no minority or low-income populations would suffer disproportionately high <br />and adverse effects as a result of any of the alternatives. <br />FARMLANDS, PRIME AND UNIQUE <br />Affected Environment: There aze no Prime and Unique Farmlands affected by this proposal. <br />Environmental Consequences/Mitigation: None <br />FLOODPLAINS <br />Affected Environment: There aze no floodplains associated with the proposed action. <br />Environmental Consequences/Mitigation: None <br />INVASNE, NON-NATNE SPECIES <br />Affected Environment: This azea was inventoried for noxious weeds during the 2002 field <br />season. No noxious weeds were found along the proposed routes. <br />Environmental Consequences/Mitigation: The low impact of the machine does not trigger <br />significant weed issues. The machine will need to be pressure washed as per slips to prevent <br />transport of weed seed to the sites. This is particularly important for the overland routes where a <br />new infestation would be difficult to find in a timely manner. <br />MIGRATORY BIItDS <br />Affected Enviromnent: Birds of Conservation Concern (USFWS 2002) that may inhabit the <br />project area and surrounding landscape include Swainson's hawk, ferruginous hawk, burrowing <br />owl, and sage sparrow. The proposed upgraded road segment to drill site 12 would approach <br />within 1 /3 mile of a golden eagles nest site. Horned larks and meadowlazks are also likely <br />present. <br />Environmental Consequences/Mitigation: The proposed action would be unlikely to affect any <br />ofthe above-mentioned species, with the exception ofpossible impacts to sage sparrows, horned <br />lazks, and western meadowlarks due to the overland travel routes. Because of sparse habitat and <br />low nesting densities, risk to these species is low and can be further minimized by avoiding <br />denser stands of desert shrubs when flagging the overland routes. With this precaution, risk of <br />and would not constitute a measurable negative impact to local populations and implementation <br />of the proposed action would not violate the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Colorado Division of <br />Wildlife guidelines (2002) for protection of raptor nests recommend a 1 /4 mile buffer between <br />activity sites and nest locations. Because drill site 12 is slightly further than the 1/4 mile <br />
