4.6.3.2 Nun-Game Species <br />• <br />Specific monitoring practices will not be conducted for non-game species as miti- <br />gation and land management practice for big game should enhance values for other <br />species as well. However, rodent depredation on newly revegetated areas could be <br />damaging to revegetation efforts. Post-mine vegetative sampling (Section 4.4) as <br />well as continuing incidental field observations will indicate if depredation <br />from rodents is a problem and if revegetation success is being hampered by these <br />species. <br />4.6.3.3 RaDtors <br />Based on the results of the raptor surveys conducted over the past several years, <br />it appears that mining and reclamation activities at Trapper Mine have not <br />adversely affected raptor nesting habits. In May, 1985, the Division approved a <br />minor revision allowing Trapper to survey only the golden eagle and prairie <br />falcon nest site on an annual basis. Nesting trends for these species will con- <br />tinue to be monitored. <br /> <br />4-169 <br />REVISED FEB 13'87
