Fences and Ungulate Control Sample Clauses

Fences and Ungulate Control. Fence lines provide protection to native habitats by keeping animals such as pigs, goats, sheep, and deer out of sensitive areas. KS will maintain fence lines in Keauhou and Kīlauea to ensure woody vegetation around fences are cleared and inspected for damage from tree falls and ungulate ingress. Fences to be maintained are those fencelines required to maintain zero tolerance for feral ungulates on KS lands, as described in Section 4. Inspection frequency is dependent on fence condition, fence location and potential risk to fence damage (e.g. wind storms). Although all top-line barbed wire has been removed from management fences, barbed wire remains on old interior ranch fences and active pasture leases. The Hawaiian Hoary bat has been known to be killed by barbed wire fences (Xxxxxxx and Bonnacorso 2010). Shared fence boundaries with the DLNR Natural Area Reserve System and Forest Reserve, National Park Service and HAVO are managed through the Three Mountain Alliance watershed partnership. Management goals with these neighbors of KS are in line with this Agreement, namely to prevent ungulate ingress within fenced management units. Any changes or issues with these shared fence lines will be resolved through the watershed partnership The large Keauhou fenced unit contains a very low level of feral pigs (<10) and KS is actively removing them. Scouting along transects is conducted annually in the upper section of the Keauhou unit where there are signs of ungulates. The other fenced units are zero-tolerance for ungulates. KS will continue to actively manage the Enrolled Property as an ungulate-free area inside fenced conservation management units (~29,000 acres) throughout the duration of the Agreement. Hunting with dogs will only occur when dogs are under the direct control of a handler, and will not be used as a management tool in areas where molting or nesting Nēnē are known to occur, which takes place between the months of October and April. Kamehameha Schools will check fences at least quarterly. Fencelines will be replaced as their condition deteriorates during the life of the Agreement. Minimization/avoidance measures for fencing and ungulate control activities will ensure minimal impact to Covered Species through the following procedures: • Since Hawaiian Hoary Bats are known to be killed by barbed wire, barbed wire above grass level will not be used on any new management fences. • Remaining barbed wire will be replaced on adjacent ranch lands as lease...
