However, I would like to add that if <br />the monitoring shows a decrease in big game populations in this area as a result of <br />habitat loss that the Company be required to enhance other habitats in the area to <br />offset these losses. The Division of Wildlife is available to assist Peabody on this <br />matter. Please contact me if you need additional information, <br />Sincerely, <br />,~^--~ <br />.~[,~k. <br />/r-., Jim Morris <br />v Wildlife Biologist <br />JM:ch <br />cc: Grand Pre <br />File <br />., ij '1 <br />.ri,/~ <br />DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES.
