If there are questions about the agenda items below, or if additional information is needed, please feel free to contact me at 303-866-3203 x4609. Agenda Item 14.5: Chapter W-9 - “Wildlife Properties” 2 CCR 406-9 and those related provisions of Chapter P-1 (“Parks and Outdoor Recreation Lands” 2 CCR 405-1) necessary to accommodate changes to or ensure consistency with Chapter W-9 • Authorizing the Division Director to execute short-term housing leases (p. 7) Previously any new housing lease for staff had to go to the Leadership Team and the Parks and Wildlife Commission for approval. This approval process usually took two months or more and was not practical for short-term housing needs. The regulations in chapter W-9 (#900.J) and P-1 (#104.b) have been changed to allow new housing leases that do not exceed 12 months be executed solely by the CPW Director. • Adjusting regulations related to the fishing closure at Banner Lakes State Wildlife Area (SWA) during waterfowl hunting seasons (p. 9) Previous regulations prohibited fishing at Banner Lakes SWA from the opening of the first regular duck season through the last day of the regular waterfowl season.

  • NW Fremont Bark Beetle Salvage Environmental Assessment Decision Record and Finding of No Significant Impact
    United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Royal Gorge Field Office 3028 E. Main Street Cañon City, CO 81212 NW Fremont Bark Beetle Salvage Environmental Assessment Decision Record and Finding of No Significant Impact DOI-BLM-CO-F02-2015-0039 EA February 2016 Introduction The Royal Gorge Field Office (RGFO) of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has proposed the NW Fremont Bark Beetle Salvage Project, for which it has prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (EA) that was released for public review in July 2015. The Draft EA described the potential environmental effects of Alternative A (No Action) and two action alternatives: Alternative B (Salvage of Dead and Dying Spruce) and Alternative C (Maximum Reduction of Spruce Beetle Habitat and Timber Output). Following the review period, minor modifications were made to the alternatives and analysis of effects based on public comments. The Final EA, which includes these changes along with the public’s comments and the BLM’s responses, was completed in December 2015. This document reports my decision and the reasons I have made this decision, lists the alternatives considered, describes the public involvement process, displays findings required by other laws and regulations, and describes appeal opportunities. Decision It is my decision to implement Alternative B (Salvage of Dead and Dying Spruce) as described in Section 2.1.2 in the Final EA. All of the project design standards described in Section 2.1.4 in the Final EA will be implemented as part of Alternative B. This decision was made following and based upon my review of the Final EA, the Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) (attached to this document), supporting materials referenced by the Final EA, additional information contained in the administrative record, public comments on the Draft EA, and the responses to the public comments (Appendix B in the Final EA).
