Noise - Cumulative impacts of increased noise levels could be most noticeable within the immediate <br />surrounding areas, as there are other nearby similar operations already generating noise. For example, <br />noise generation from the off- highway vehicle use that occurs on this BLM parcel is regulated by the <br />State of Colorado, which has set a legal limit of 99 decibels for these types of sources. However, <br />depending on the level of mitigation, the cumulative impacts to these areas may not be significantly <br />increased. It is assumed that the effects from ongoing, similar activities in the area have already been <br />absorbed by local communities and are represented in the affected environment. <br />Hydrology /Water Rights - The South Platte Basin is a fully or over appropriated basin meaning that <br />there is no new water available. The addition of the Proposed Action would further commit more <br />water in the basin. This would be done through the state water rights process and would most likely <br />require augmentation water be purchased and transferred to the site. <br />PERSONS / AGENCIES CONSULTED: <br />Persons /Public /Agencies Consulted: <br />• The applicant has contacted the following agencies: <br />• Natural Resource Conservation Division regarding reclamation guidelines for <br />topsoil stabilization and vegetation <br />• Park County regarding the need for a septic system and county road access <br />• Mine Safety Health Administration <br />• Colorado State Engineer's Office regarding possibility of installing a well <br />• The BLM has contacted the following agencies: <br />• Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (CDRMS) <br />• Park County <br />• Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment <br />INTERDISCIPLINARY REVIEW: <br />Name <br />Hugh Wolfe <br />Chris Cloninger <br />Matt Rustand <br />Dave Gilbert <br />Mike Cassell <br />Stephanie Carter <br />Tom Grette <br />Steve Cunningham <br />Henry Eichman <br />Tony Mule <br />Kalem Lenard <br />Ken Reed <br />Ed Skerjanec <br />John Smeins <br />Melissa Smeins <br />Joseph Vieira <br />Martin Weimer <br />Monica Weimer <br />Joshua Wilson <br />Title <br />Realty Specialist <br />Range Management Spec. <br />Wildlife Biologist <br />Fisheries Biologist <br />Surface Reclamation Spec. <br />Geologist <br />Range Management Spec. <br />Law Enforcement Ranger <br />Economist, USFS <br />Cadastral Surveyor <br />Outdoor Recreation Planner <br />Forester <br />Fire Management Officer <br />Hydrologist <br />Geologist <br />Renewable Energy Project Mgr <br />NEPA Coordinator <br />Archaeologist <br />Economist, USFS <br />53 <br />Area of Responsibility <br />Realty <br />Range, Vegetation, Farmland <br />Wildlife, T &E, Migratory Birds <br />Aquatic Wildlife, Riparian/Wetlands <br />Soils <br />Minerals, Solid/Hazardous Wastes <br />Weeds <br />Law Enforcement <br />Socioeconomics, Environmental Justice <br />Cadastral Survey <br />Recreation, Visual, Special Designations <br />Forestry <br />Fire <br />Hydrology, Water Quality /Rights <br />Paleontology <br />.
