✓ Make every effort to aggressively control noxious and invasive weed species. <br />Consult county and State of Colorado guidelines for weed identification and <br />control. Map weed accumulations prior to ground disturbance to optimize weed <br />mitigation. <br />✓ Educate employees and contractors on best management practices, environmental <br />regulations, and raise awareness on wildlife issues. <br />✓ Encourage industry participation in CDOW's Operation Game Thief program and <br />immediately report all potential poaching incidents. Educate contractors on the <br />importance of poaching and wildlife harassment mitigation. <br />✓ Protect wetlands, drainages, and riparian areas from erosion, sedimentation and <br />spills. Map wetlands prior to development to identify and properly permit these <br />sensitive areas. Consider wetland banking if feasible. <br />✓ Restrict and monitor vehicular speed to reduce wildlife collision potential, <br />increase safety, and minimize dust generation <br />✓ Fence livestock out of newly reclaimed areas until reclamation becomes <br />established. Fence construction should follow CDOW fencing guidelines and be <br />durable to avoid wildlife entrapment. <br />Should you have comments or concerns please feel free to contact me for discussion or <br />clarification.
