to avoid all human/bear and human/mountain lion interactions. <br />• Common species of small mammals in the proposed facilities <br />area include coyote, bobcat, striped skunk, raccoon, beaver, rabbit <br />and a number of rodents. During the 1984 site reconnaissance, bobcat, <br />beaver, rabbit and kangaroo rat sign was observed on site while a gray <br />fox was seen in Apache Canyon. No prairie dog activity was observed <br />in the mine area. <br />A total of 122 species of birds have been reported as <br />breeding in the mine area. In terms of game birds, morning dove, blue <br />grouse, and turkey are known to occur in the area. Turkey is the <br />species of highest interest with a known use area being in Ciruela and <br />Apache Canyons. Turkeys are not known to utilize the facilities area. <br />Although turkeys are known to occur in areas providing brood rearing <br />meadows, roost trees, oakbrush, intermittent streams, and nesting <br />sites within the mine site area. In order to protect turkey <br />populations, Basin Resources will limit the amount of pesticide use <br />• on the mine site. <br />waterfowl species including shore birds, ducks and geese are <br />common to this area of Colorado both as migrants (during spring and <br />fall) and breeders. Because of existing disturbance to the ripari- <br />an/stream habitat, current use of the area is limited. <br />Eight species of raptors are listed as known inhabitants of <br />the area. During the 1984 site reconnaissance, only one red-tailed <br />hawk was observed over the area while no raptor nests were observed; <br />however, raptors are common breeders in this general area. Bald and <br />golden eagles are reported as wintering species in the general mine <br />area (Holder 1994). <br />Many other birds have the potential of being observed on <br />site during various times of the year. Those observed during the 1984 <br />site reconnaissance included scrub jay, common raven, black-capped <br />• chickadee, starling, gray-headed junco, house sparrow, horned lark, <br />black-backed magpie, and rock dove. <br />2.04-49 (Revised O1-04-94) <br />
