Design Criteria
Topic Design Criteria for the Proposed Action
67. Water depletions of the Colorado River System as they pertain to USFWS
the four endangered fishes (associated with MDW drilling and shaft
construction) have previously been consulted upon with the US
Fish and Wildlife Service in a programmatic biological opinion.
68. Avoid or minimize impacts to lynx habitat. Canada Lynx
Conservation
Assessment
and Strategy
(LCAS)
69. Restrict use to designated routes where over-snow access is LCAS
required to protect 1}nix.
70. Minimize snow compaction during MDW monitoring to protect LCAS
lynx. Use remote monitoring of sites if possible.
71. Restore suitable lynx habitat during reclamation activities. LCAS
72. Reclaim and obliterate temporary roads at project completion. LCAS, 36

73. Close project-created roads to public access in lynx habitat. LCAS
74. Pre-disturbance surveys would be completed within the potentially MCC Project
impacted delineated wetland and two intermittent lakes, as specified Plan, Forest
by the Forest Service, to ensure that northern leopard frog Plan
populations are not adversely impacted. In the event that breeding
northern leopard frog populations are documented within the
surveyed wetlands, disturbances to these wetland areas would be
postponed until early June and the completion of the breeding
season (CDOW 2003).
