The Present or Threatened Destruction, Modification, or Curtailment of Its Habitat or Range Sample Clauses

The Present or Threatened Destruction, Modification, or Curtailment of Its Habitat or Range. In this section, we describe and evaluate various conditions in relation to the present or threatened destruction, modification, or curtailment of the habitats and ranges of the four beetle species. We identified the following activities as potentially impacting the species’ habitats and ranges: Mining, solar development, off-road vehicle recreation, commercial filming, and livestock grazing. Mining Mining removes vegetation and soil and alters surface water flows and infiltration of water. Indirect effects of mining, such as establishment of new roads to access mines and increased human presence, cause increased vegetation impacts and beetle displacement. Destruction of vegetation around dunes, disturbance of dune sand, and disruption of reproductive behavior would reduce or eliminate sand dune beetle populations because the larvae of the beetle use decomposed organic matter as their primary food source and the adults mate on live vegetation. There are three different types of mineral resources on BLM-administered lands: Locatable (such as iron and gold), leasable (typically oil and gas), and salable (common materials such as sand, gravel, clay, and lava rock) (BLM 2011,
