a <br /> J-7.1 IMPACTS AND MITIGATION OF IMPACTS TO THREATENED AND ENDANGERED SPECIES <br /> Conducting activities on areas occupied or that have the potential to be occupied by threatened <br /> plants, the Dudley Bluffs bladderpod and the Dudley Bluffs twinpod, could negatively impact these <br /> species. Before any surface disturbing activities occur on the Rock School Lease area, a botanist <br /> qualified to identify populations and habitats of the two species of threatened plants will be <br /> contracted; and a thorough survey of areas planned for disturbance will be carried out. If any <br /> populations or suitable habitats are identified, appropriate measures will be taken to avoid impacts <br /> to these threatened plant species. <br /> J-8 REFERENCES <br /> Tiedman, J.A. and C.
