Contract Type FiledAugust 8th, 2008 CompanyAt least seven other active prairie falcon territories and 14 viable prairie falcon nests were documented within 12 miles of PF1b in 1989 (DCC Unpublished data). A fixed-wing aerial raptor survey conducted for the BLM in 2004 covering approximately 3,209,408 acres in Bighorn County, of which SCCC ownership was included, did not identify any new or active prairie falcon nests within the targeted survey area (Greystone, 2004). It is acknowledged that it is difficult to determine the status of prairie falcon nests during fixed-wing aerial surveys. Two other active prairie falcon territories were documented within 12 miles of PF1b in 2006, although surveys of the entire area were not conducted. Recent comprehensive territory/nest status surveys have not been conducted over the entire 12:-mile area.
