Nevada Supplement Revised October 2000 CERL Special Report 96/009 October 1995 Revised October 2000 US Army Corps of Engineers Engineer Research and Development Center The Environmental Assessment and Management (TEAM) Guide Nevada Supplement Revised October 2000 Environmental assessments help determine compliance with current environmental regulations. The U.S. Air Force, U.S. Army, Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), and Corps of Engi- neers (Civil Works) have adopted environmental compliance programs that identify compliance problems before they are cited as violations by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Since 1984, the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory, in cooperation with numerous Department of Defense (DOD) components, has developed environmental compliance assessment checklist manuals. The Environmental Assessment and Management (TEAM) Guide was developed for use by all DOD components. Currently there are five participating DOD components: the Air Force, Air National Guard, Army, Civil Works, and DLA. These agencies have agreed to share the development and maintenance of this Guide. The Guide combines Code of Federal Regulations and management practices into a series of checklists that show legal requirements and the specific operations or items to review. TEAM Guide is supplemented by DOD component- specific manuals detailing DOD component regulations and policies. The Nevada Supplement was developed to be used in conjunction with the TEAM Guide, using existing Nevada state environmental legislation and regulations as well as suggested management practices. Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. FOREWORD This is USACERL Special Report 96/09.

  • ENDANGERED SPECIES: Groups Petition FWS to List Amargosa Toad (02/28/2008)
    ENDANGERED SPECIES: Groups petition FWS to list Amargosa toad (02/28/2008) April Reese, Land Letter Western reporter The Amargosa toad should be added to the federal endangered species list, according to a petition filed Tuesday with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service by environmental groups. In their petition, filed Feb. 26, the Center for Biological Diversity and Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility argue that urban development, water diversions and increased off- road vehicle use throughout the toad's range in Nevada's Oasis Valley have pushed the species toward extinction. According to the groups, the Amargosa toad is already restricted to a 10-mile stretch of the Amargosa River -- one of Nevada's last free- flowing rivers -- and adjacent desert uplands. "It only has a small amount of habitat," said Daniel Patterson, PEER's southwest director, who formerly worked for the Bureau of Land Management in Nevada as an ecologist. "It's got no where to go. There's really no room for error." FWS considered listing the toad in the 1990s after receiving a petition from environmental groups but decided the species did not warrant Males tend to be smaller, reaching 3 to 4 inches, while federal protection. At the time, FWS concluded females may reach 3.5 to 5 inches. Unlike most frogs and toads, the Amargosa toad is voiceless except for “release that the toad was more widespread than the calls” or chirps made by males when grasped below their petition suggested, although it also said more forelimbs by another toad or human.

  • Endangered Species
    FEATURE: ENDANGERED SPECIES Conservation Status of Imperiled North American Freshwater and Diadromous Fishes ABSTRACT: This is the third compilation of imperiled (i.e., endangered, threatened, vulnerable) plus extinct freshwater and diadromous fishes of North America prepared by the American Fisheries Society’s Endangered Species Committee. Since the last revision in 1989, imperilment of inland fishes has increased substantially. This list includes 700 extant taxa representing 133 genera and 36 families, a 92% increase over the 364 listed in 1989. The increase reflects the addition of distinct populations, previously non-imperiled fishes, and recently described or discovered taxa. Approximately 39% of described fish species of the continent are imperiled. There are 230 vulnerable, 190 threatened, and 280 endangered extant taxa, and 61 taxa presumed extinct or extirpated from nature. Of those that were imperiled in 1989, most (89%) are the same or worse in conservation status; only 6% have improved in status, and 5% were delisted for various reasons. Habitat degradation and nonindigenous species are the main threats to at-risk fishes, many of which are restricted to small ranges. Documenting the diversity and status of rare fishes is a critical step in identifying and implementing appropriate actions necessary for their protection and management. Howard L.

  • Cyprinodon Nevadensis Mionectes Ash Meadows Amargosa Pupfish
    Ash Meadows Amargosa pupfsh Cyprinodon nevadensis mionectes WAP 2012 species due to impacts from introduced detrimental aquatc species, habitat degradaton, and federal endangered status. Agency Status NV Natural Heritage G2T2S2 USFWS LE BLM-NV Sensitve State Prot Threatened Fish NAC 503.065.3 CCVI Presumed Stable TREND: Trend is stable to increasing with contnued on-going restoraton actvites. DISTRIBUTION: Springs and associated springbrooks, outlow stream systems and terminal marshes within Ash Meadows Natonal Wildlife Refuge, Nye Co., NV. GENERAL HABITAT AND LIFE HISTORY: This species is isolated to warm springs and outlows in Ash Meadows NWR including Point of Rocks, Crystal Springs, and the Carson Slough drainage. Pupfshes feed generally on substrate; feeding territories are ofen defended by pupfshes. Diet consists of mainly algae and detritus however, aquatc insects, crustaceans, snails and eggs are also consumed. Spawning actvity is typically from February to September and in some cases year round. Males defend territories vigorously during breeding season (Soltz and Naiman 1978). In warm springs, fsh may reach sexual maturity in 4-6 weeks. Reproducton variable: in springs, pupfsh breed throughout the year, may have 8-10 generatons/year; in streams, breeds in spring and summer, 2-3 generatons/year (Moyle 1976). In springs, males establish territories over sites suitable for ovipositon. Short generaton tme allows small populatons to be viable. Young adults typically comprise most of the biomass of a populaton. Compared to other C. nevadensis subspecies, this pupfsh has a short deep body and long head with typically low fn ray and scale counts (Soltz and Naiman 1978). CONSERVATION CHALLENGES: Being previously threatened by agricultural use of the area (loss and degradaton of habitat resultng from water diversion and pumping) and by impending residental development, the TNC purchased property, which later became the Ash Meadows NWR.

  • Invasive Weeds Threaten Rare Toad and a Small Town's Economy
    INVASIVE WEED AWARENESS COALITION (IWAC) Invasive Weeds Threaten Rare Toad and a Small Town’s Economy n 1994, residents near Nevada’s Oasis Valley learned that a native amphibian, the Amargosa Toad, had been nominated for the endangered species list. As the only habitat where the small, rare toad resides, Oasis Valley is home to the one of the few wet portions of the United States’ longest under- ground river, the Amargosa. The 12-mile stretch of river provides shallow, clear water that the toad needs to live and reproduce. Increasing infestations of invasive weeds threaten this water supply and its unique Rare Amargosa Toads call the Oasis Valley home. inhabitant.
