  • West Virginia Northern Flying Squirrel (WVNFS), Glauconzys Sabrinus Fuscus Five Year Status Review Appendix B — Capture Site Summaries
    U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service — West Virginia Field Office West Virginia northern flying squirrel (WVNFS), Glauconzys sabrinus fuscus Five Year Status Review Appendix B — Capture Site Summaries Attached are the summaries for the 105 West Virginia northern flying squirrel (WVNFS), G.s. fuscus, capture sites l in West Virginia. Although biologists occasionally use live-trapping, nest boxes have been the primary tool for population surveys for the WVNFS. Biologists place transects of nest boxes in a survey area and check the boxes periodically for occupancy, typically twice each year, in fall and spring. Northern flying squirrels are nocturnal, leaving their nests to forage at night and returning during the day, which facilitates daytime nest box monitoring. The success of nest box monitoring relies on the squirrels occupying the boxes during the day of the survey. Menzel (2003) found that no WVNFS in her radio telemetry study used nest boxes (despite their availability) as den sites. All nests were either natural tree cavities (i.e. dens) or dreys (i.e. outside nests constructed of leaves, twigs, lichens, etc.). She also noted WVNFS used multiple den sites, switching nests on average every 3 days in summer, and utilizing up to 12 den sites per month in lesser quality habitat (Menzel 2000, Menzel et al. 2004). Further, the nest box monitoring program conducted by the DNR had a 2% average success rate of squirrel occupancy per box checked. These data confirm the difficulty of capturing squirrels via nest boxes and caution against relying on nest box survey results to determine occupied habitat, i.e., although a captured individual affirms presence, an empty nest box does not necessarily signify absence or unoccupied habitat.

  • Final BO Camp Wilderness
    West Virginia Field Office 694 Beverly Pike Elkins, West Virginia 26241 Memorandum To: Assistant Regional Director, Ecological Services From: Acting Field Supervisor, West Virginia Field Office, Elkins, WV Subject: Biological Opinion for issuance of the Incidental Take Permit (ITP) for the take of the endangered West Virginia northern flying squirrel, (Glaucomys sabrinus fuscus) (WVNFS), in the Camp Wilderness Habitat Conservation Plan (CWHCP). This document represents the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (Service) biological opinion (BO) completed in accordance with section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended, ( l6 U.S.C. § l53l et seq.) (ESA), and it’s implementing regulations at 50 CFR 17, regarding the subject ITP for take of the WVNFS. The Service’s approval of an ITP application is a Federal action subject to intra-Service consultation under section 7(a)(2) of the ESA. The issuance of this ITP is based upon submission of a Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) prepared by BHE Environmental, Inc. (BHE) on behalf of the applicants, Snowshoe Mountain, Inc. (SMI) and Intrawest Resorts, Inc. (IRI) (BHE Environmental, 2002), which have proposed to construct Camp Wilderness, a development consisting of approximately 55 buildings and related infrastructure on approximately 50.6 acres of occupied habitat of the WVNFS. Construction of the Camp Wilderness development is anticipated to result in the “take” of the WVNFS as a result of harm through habitat loss. This BO is based on information provided in the CWHCP, the Service’s National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) decision documents (FWS, 2002), the WVNFS amended recovery plan (FWS, 2001), information obtained from the scientific literature, telephone conversations, field investigations, discussions with endangered species staff of the Region 5 office (RO) and Office of the Solicitor (SOL), and other sources of information.

  • Glen and Pamela Addis V. Snowshoe Mountain, Inc
    STATE OF WEST VIRGINIA SUPREME COURT OF APPEALS Glen Addis and Pamela Addis, FILED November 22, 2013 Plaintiffs Below, Petitioners RORY L. PERRY II, CLERK SUPREME COURT OF APPEALS vs) No. 12-1537 (Pocahontas County 10-C-69) OF WEST VIRGINIA Snowshoe Mountain, Inc., a West Virginia corporation, Defendant Below, Respondent MEMORANDUM DECISION Petitioners Glen and Pamela Addis, by counsel John F. McCuskey, Roberta F. Green, and Heather B. Osborn, appeal the order of the Circuit Court of Pocahontas County, entered November 28, 2012, granting summary judgment in favor of Respondent Snowshoe Mountain, Inc. Respondent appears by counsel Robert M. Steptoe, Amy M. Smith, and Matthew B. Hansberry. This Court has considered the parties’ briefs and the record on appeal. The facts and legal arguments are adequately presented, and the decisional process would not be significantly aided by oral argument. Upon consideration of the standard of review, the briefs, and the record presented, the Court finds no substantial question of law and no prejudicial error. For these reasons, a memorandum decision is appropriate under Rule 21 of the Rules of Appellate Procedure. Petitioners filed a complaint and amended complaint in the Circuit Court of Kanawha County based on injuries Petitioner Glen Addis received after skiing over and slipping on ice on a double black diamond trail called Lower Shay’s Revenge at respondent’s ski resort.1 The civil action was transferred to the Circuit Court of Pocahontas County upon the court’s grant of respondent’s motion to dismiss for improper venue, or in the alternative, transfer. Respondent filed a motion for summary judgment after the close of discovery, and the circuit court granted the motion by order entered November 28, 2012, on the grounds that petitioners’ claims are barred by the West Virginia Skiing Responsibility Act and by release and waiver language contained in an agreement signed by petitioner.2 Petitioners appealed the grant of summary judgment to this Court.
