Wildlife and Habitat. Implementing the Proposed Action could result in the conveyance of a lease designed to allow livestock grazing on the parcel. This could result in the displacement of wildlife, such as deer and elk, while attracting other species more tolerant of the presence of livestock, such as turkey. Disturbance associated with livestock grazing could also result in the decrease of vegetative species that could be consumed by big game species such as deer and elk. The possibility that BELF would convey leases on the property for oil, gas, or mineral development or the installation of wind energy facilities, or exchange the property with a private party or government entity could open the land to a wide variety of activities that could also result in increased disturbance and displacement of existing wildlife. Management and Use Implementing the Proposed Action could result in changes to the existing use and management of the parcel such as conveying leases for livestock grazing; oil, gas, or mineral development; or the installation of wind energy facilities; or exchanging the land for other property within the state. Any of these potential uses could open the land to a wide variety of activities that could result in new or additional disturbance to natural resources present on the land. If a lease was conveyed on the tract, the potential that the parcel would be opened to public access is unknown since that use would be determined and controlled by the lessee. No Action (Parcel remains in the ownership of NGPC)‌ Vegetation Implementing the No Action alternative would not result in any new activities that would change or impact the vegetation other than the continuation of efforts to control noxious species.

Wildlife and Habitat. Implementing the No Action alternative would not involve any activities that would result in a change to the existing wildlife habitat or wildlife use of the parcel currently owned by NGPC. Management and Use Although NGPC would continue to undertake some basic maintenance actions on the tract, such as the control of noxious plant species, implementing the No Action alternative would result in ongoing challenges and complications in managing the property, such as unauthorized livestock grazing. Public use of the parcel for hunting and outdoor recreation would continue to be minimal due to the location and small size of the parcel, and the lack of access and signage. In general, the parcel would continue to fail serving the purpose for which it was originally acquired. BELF Parcel‌‌‌ Proposed Action (BELF Parcel is conveyed to NGPC via exchange) Vegetation The Ponderosa Pine that currently exists along the roadway would be thinned to create a firebreak. This would reduce the amount of potential fuel for wildfire and could lessen the extent of destruction should a fire occur, thereby providing some protection for the existing vegetation and woodland. Otherwise, no other activities are planned that would result in changes to the existing vegetation.

Wildlife and Habitat. Opening the area to hunting and increased human presence could result in the shift of wildlife from the margins to the interior of the parcel or further west into the WMA. This shift would be expected to be temporary and occur primarily during hunting season due to the presence of increased human activity. Otherwise, no significant effects to wildlife would be anticipated. Management and Use Including this parcel with the WMA would provide an additional 15.09 acres available to the public for hunting and outdoor recreation. Changes in the existing management would include the discontinuance of grazing, the creation of a firebreak along the road by thinning the existing Ponderosa Pine, the installation of signage, the installation of fencing around the parcel to prevent cattle trespass, and the control of noxious weeds. NGPC would also undertake trash removal and fence maintenance as needed. No Action (Parcel remains in the ownership of BELF)‌ Vegetation Implementing the No Action alternative could result in the continuation of livestock grazing on the parcel. Continued grazing could result in changes to the vegetative composition of the property and a reduction in vegetative matter that could fuel fires. This reduction could ultimately lessen the possibility of wildfire or its severity and subsequently contribute to the resiliency of the habitat and protect existing trees from destruction by fire. BELF could also lease the property for oil, gas, or mineral development or the installation of wind energy facilities. These activities could result in the change, disturbance, or elimination of existing vegetation.
Sample 1
Wildlife and Habitat. Implementing the No Action alternative would result in the continuation of the current grazing lease until 2021. Since the property is currently subject to livestock grazing, the character of the existing habitat and wildlife use would not be expected to change during the years until the lease expires. BELF could then extend the existing agricultural lease; enter into a new lease for agricultural use, oil, gas or mineral development, or installation of wind energy facilities, or exchange the land. Any of these potential uses could open the land to a wide variety of activities that could result in new or additional disturbance and displacement of existing wildlife.

Related to Wildlife and Habitat

  • Wildlife The remote area in which Stoney Creek is located contains wild animals and insects, including venomous snakes, poisonous insects and plants and potentially dangerous animals. The behavior of wildlife is unpredictable. Emergency medical attention may not be available and the camper is solely responsible for having an adequate supply of medication readily available to treat any and all allergic reactions of that camper to insect bites and stings or contact with plants. Conduct of other campers, visitors and staff: Other campers, visitors and staff may misjudge conditions and capabilities and otherwise act carelessly, including violation of rules and policies. The risks described above and others may result in loss or damage to a camper’s property, personal injury and even death. The risks are inherent in the activities of the Camp and moving about its premises -- that is, without such risks, the camp experience would lose its value and appeal. Although STONEY CREEK may take precautions to reduce the risks of participating in the Program, safety – the elimination of risk - is not possible or desirable. Assumption of Risks I, an adult camper, or Parent, assume and accept all the risks and dangers of participating in the Program, whether or not described above, and including the possibility of the negligence of staff and others. If I am the Parent of a minor camper I give my child permission to participate in all activities. I have discussed the activities and risks with the minor camper who assures me that he or she understands them and wishes to participate nevertheless. Release and Indemnity: I, an adult camper or Parent of a minor camper (Parent, for myself and, to the extent allowed by the laws of the state of Texas, on behalf of the minor camper) hereby release and agree not to xxx The Stoney Creek Foundation, a Texas nonprofit corporation, and its directors, officers, employees, staff and independent contractors (the "Released and Indemnified Parties) with respect to any and all claims of injury, disability, death, products liability (including strict liability), breach of contract or other loss or damage to person or property suffered by me or by the minor camper, arising in whole or part from my (or the child’s) participation in activities of the camp or otherwise being on its premises. In addition, I agree to indemnify (that is, defend and satisfy by payment or reimbursement, including costs and attorney’s fees) the Released and Indemnified Parties from any and all such claims brought by me or by or on behalf of the minor camper, another camper, a member of my, or the minor camper’s, family, or anyone else, arising out of or in any way related to a loss suffered by me or the child, or caused by me or the child. These agreements of release and indemnity include claims of negligence, but not the gross negligence or intentionally wrongful conduct of a Released and Indemnified Party.
