Structural Practices Structural practices used to divert flows from exposed soils, retain/detain flow or otherwise limit runoff and discharge of pollutants from exposed areas of the site are listed on the BMP checklist page of this SWPPP. Structural practices may include but are not limited to those listed in the Sediment Control Plan (SCP). Best Management Practices (BMPs) were selected based on compliance requirements and control effectiveness in accordance with manufacture specifications and good engineering practices. A goal was established to reduce sediment and contain potential pollutants to levels that would not negatively impact receiving waters. Design and construction specifications for selected BMPs are located behind the BMP Tab of this SWPPP.

BMP Maintenance
All erosion and sediment controls and other measures identified in the SWPPP must be maintained in effective operation condition. If site inspections required by Subpart 4.1.2 identify BMPs that are not operating effectively, maintenance must be preformed in accordance with subpart 2.1.1.4 of the CGP which states “Initiate work to fix the problem immediately after discovery and complete such work by the close of the next business day if the problem does not require significant repair or replacement, or if the problem can be corrected through routine maintenance..”. If existing BMPs need to be modified or if additional BMPs are necessary for any reason, implementation must be completed before the next storm event whenever practicable. If implementation before the next storm event is impracticable, the situation must be documented in the SWPPP and alternative BMPs must be implemented as soon as possible.
Silt fence When sediment build up reaches 50% of the height of the fence, the sediment will be
removed. Repair when damaged. Mulch sock or erosion logs
Remove sediment when it reaches 50% of the height of the sock or log. Replace the sock or log if it is damaged and ineffective.
Sediment barrier (cut below adjacent grade or cut back
curb)
Remove sediment build up when it has reached 50% of the height of the barrier.
Track-out pad . If rock in the construction entrance becomes filled with sediment or imbedded in the soil and becomes ineffective, it will be raised, cleaned up or have additional rock
applied to that area. See TRACK-OUT MANAGEMENT on the next page. Chemical toilet Chemical toilets will be set back onto bare soil and not on an impervious surface such
as asphalt or concrete if feasible. Toilets will be staked down to prevent tipping over.
Solid waste receptacle
Empty it when full. Do not over fill.
Sediment basin If sediment fills 50% of the ponding area then the sediment will be removed. Concrete washout When the washout pit is 75% filled with hardened concrete it will be cleaned out. If
the liner leaks it will be repaired or replaced Inlet protection Repair if damaged or compromised by excessive sediment.
Existing vegetation Maintain existing vegetation as much as is feasible.
Earth berms If the dirt berm is flattened or has sediment build up reaching 50% of it’s’ height, then
it will be repaired or have the excess dirt removed.
Ver. 01-14-13 24
Solid Waste management Procedures
Construction waste/debris such as lumber, carpet, shingles, etc. that will not blow and normally comes into contact with Stormwater, may be kept in piles behind the curb and disposed of on a regular basis.
Construction waste that does not normally come into contact with storm water such as drywall, containers for glues/adhesives, petroleum products, etc or can be considered possible “blowing trash” such as any packaging for construction materials, workers lunch bags and wrappers, etc. will be kept in side the structure or in a trash receptacle. Any waste considered to be “blowing trash” will be picked up on a daily basis.
Storm inlet protectors will be placed on storm inlets to prevent solid waste from entering the storm sewer system.
Sediment removed from the site will be taken to a location that has a SWPPP by others or to a location dedicated to the project, identified on the site map and has erosion controls to minimize off-site discharges.
Off Site Track-out Management
Sediment track-out is one of the major reasons pollutants leave the construction site and are transported to the MS4 or other conveyance system and then on to the receiving water. The 2012
CGP has addressed this by instituting the following requirements.
You must minimize the track-out of sediment onto off-site streets, other paved areas, and sidewalks from vehicles exiting your construction site. To comply with this requirement, you must: a. Restrict vehicle use to properly designated exit points; b. Use appropriate stabilization techniques at all points that exit onto paved roads so that sediment removal occurs prior to vehicle exit; c. Where necessary, use additional controls to remove sediment from vehicle tires prior to exit; and d. Where sediment has been tracked-out from your site onto the surface of off-site streets, other paved areas, and sidewalks, you must remove the deposited sediment by the end of the same work day in which the track-out occurs or by the end of the next work day if track-out occurs on a non-work day. You must remove the track-out by sweeping, shoveling, or vacuuming these surfaces, or by using other similarly effective means of sediment removal. You are prohibited from hosing or sweeping tracked-out sediment into any stormwater conveyance (unless it is connected to a sediment basin, sediment trap, or similarly effective control), storm drain inlet, or surface water.

Hazardous Waste Management Procedures
Hazardous materials or any product for which there is a published MSDS, i.e. Paint, thinners, solvents, petroleum products, glue, etc.
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for all hazardous materials used on the project site will be posted at a conspicuous location and employees informed on how to respond to spills or procedures to take in cast of contact with these hazardous materials.
Hazardous materials ‘will not’ be exposed to storm water. They will be kept in closed containers inside the structure or other enclosed structure designed to protect hazardous materials.
Containers of hazardous material will be clearly labeled Hazardous materials such as paint, thinners, solvents, fertilizers and other products that are
packaged in containers of five (5) gallons or less will be removed from the site each day by the contractor.
Chemical toilets will be set back behind the curb to ensure containment on site in case of a spill.
Waste paints, thinners, solvents and used petroleum products will be removed by the contractor each day for proper disposal. No waste products will be disposed of in the dumpster.
A spill response bulletin will be posted on site when possible or located in the Superintendent’s vehicle.
List of Hazardous Materials kept on site
See the hazardous materials log sheet at the back of this section.
Ver. 01-14-13 26
Spill Response Procedures Spill will be cleaned as soon as possible and reported, if required. Spill material will be properly disposed of offsite. Personnel on site responsible for fluid material handling should review spill response procedures. A copy of the spill response plan will be posted at the site near where liquid materials are stored. In cases of spill, personnel onsite will make decisions in response to the spill based on the following decisions hierarchy:
1. Protect People 2. Protect Property
3. Protect the Environment The discharge of hazardous substances or oil from the site must be prevented or minimized using the best management practices (BMPs) identified in the SWPPP. Any discharges in 24 hours equal to or in excess of the reportable quantities listed in 40 CFR Part 110, 117, or 302 will be reported to the National Response Center as soon as practical after knowledge of the spills known to the site staff. The SWPPP must be modified with in seven (7) calendar days of knowledge of the release to provide a description of the release, the circumstances leading to the release, and the date of the release. In addition, the plan must identify measures to prevent the reoccurrence of such releases and to respond to such releases, and the plan must be modified where appropriate.

Deadlines for Initiating Stabilization
You must initiate soil stabilization measures immediately whenever earth-disturbing activities have permanently or temporarily ceased on any portion of the site.
Earth-disturbing activities have permanently ceased when clearing and excavation within
any area of your construction site that will not include permanent structures has been completed. Earth-disturbing activities have temporarily ceased when clearing, grading, and excavation within any area of the site that will not include permanent structures will not resume (i.e., the land will be idle) for a period of 14 or more calendar days, but such activities will resume in the future. The 14 calendar day timeframe above begins counting as soon as you know that construction work on a portion of your site will be temporarily ceased. In circumstances where you experience unplanned or unanticipated delays in construction due to circumstances beyond your control (e.g., sudden work stoppage due to unanticipated problems associated with construction labor, funding, or other issues related to the ability to work on the site; weather conditions rendering the site unsuitable for the continuation of construction work) and you do not know at first how long the work stoppage will continue, your requirement to immediately initiate stabilization is triggered as soon as you know with reasonable certainty that work will be stopped for 14 or more additional calendar days. For the purposes of this permit, EPA will consider any of the following types of activities to constitute the initiation of stabilization: 1. Prepping the soil for vegetative or non-vegetative stabilization; 2. Applying mulch or other non-vegetative product to the exposed area; 3. Seeding or planting the exposed area; 4. Starting any of the activities in # 1 – 3 on a portion of the area to be stabilized, but not on the entire area;
and 5. Finalizing arrangements to have stabilization product fully installed in compliance with the applicable
deadline for completing stabilization in Parts 2.2.1.2 and 2.2.1.3.
Deadline to complete stabilization The deadline to complete stabilization is 14 calendar days after initiating stabilization measures
Exceptions to the deadline 1) For projects occurring in arid or semi-arid areas, or drought stricken areas. 2) For projects that are affected by circumstances beyond the control of the permittee that delay the initiation and/or completion of vegetative stabilization as required in Parts 2.2.1.1 and/or 2.2.1.2. Examples include problems with the supply of seed stock or with the availability of specialized equipment, unsuitability of soil conditions due to excessive precipitation and/or flooding. Final Stabilization is defined as - on areas not covered by permanent structures, either (1) vegetation has been established, or for arid or semi-arid areas, will be established that provides a uniform (e.g., evenly distributed, without large bare areas) perennial vegetative cover with a density of 70 percent of the natural background vegetative cover, or (2) non-vegetative stabilization methods have been implemented to provide effective cover for exposed portions of the site.

Permanent Stabilization Continued Post Construction controls On site Yes/No Explanation of Selection Storm Water Detention Structures
YES Storm water detention structures currently exist on this project
Storm Water Retention Structures NO
Storm water retention structures include streets and storm drain collection system.
Flow Attenuation by Use of Open Vegetated Swales and Natural Depressions NO
Open vegetated swales are used around the structure to carry storm water away from the site. These swales allow for increased infiltration compared to concrete swales.
Infiltration of Runoff Onsite Permanent Vegetation
YES Vegetated grass areas provide for increased infiltration onsite to reduce runoff from the site once construction has been completed.
Interceptor Swale
NO
An interceptor swale is used to divert run-on water away from the finished project or to divert runoff water from construction areas to avoid runoff crossing disturbed areas.
Velocity dissipation devices NO
Diversion Dike NO
Diversion dikes are similar in function to interceptor swales in controlling run-on or runoff.
Storm Drain system
NO
A curb and gutter storm drain system or drainage ditch discharge system is installed on most projects. The storm water is collected in the street and channeled to either the curb inlet or drainage ditch system.
Ver. 01-14-13 30
Maintaining an Updated Plan A. Needed repair and maintenance of BMPs identified in between inspections by site
Superintendent or during the regular inspection should be repaired and maintenance attended to with in seven (7) calendar days or before the next storm event
B. The SWPPP, including the site map, must be amended whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, or maintenance at the construction site that has or could have a significant effect on the discharge of pollutants to the waters of the United States that has not been previously addressed in the SWPPP.
C. The SWPPP must be amended if during inspections or investigations by site staff, or by local, state, tribal or federal officials, it is determined that the SWPPP is ineffective in eliminating or significantly minimizing pollutants in storm water discharges from the construction site.
Inspections
A. Inspections will be conducted at least once every 14 calendar day and with in 24 hours of the end of a storm event of 0.25 inches or greater.
B. Inspections are to be done bi-weekly or at least once every month in situation as defined in 2012 CGP Part 4.1.4.
C. Inspections must be conducted by qualified personnel. “Qualified personnel” means a person knowledgeable in the practices and principles of erosion and sediment controls who possesses the skills to assess conditions at the construction site that could impact storm water quality and to assess the effectiveness of any sediment and erosion control measures selected to control the quality of storm water from the construction activity.
D. Inspections must include all areas of the site disturbed by construction activity and areas used for storage of materials that are exposed to precipitation. Inspectors must look for evidence of, or the potential for, pollutants entering the storm water conveyance system. Sedimentation and erosion control measures identified in the SWPPP must be observed to ensure proper operation. Discharge locations must be inspected to ascertain whether erosion control measures are effective in preventing significant impacts to waters of the United States, where accessible. Where discharge locations are inaccessible, nearby downstream locations must be inspected to the extent that such inspections are practicable. Locations where vehicles enter or exit the site must be inspected for evidence of off-site sediment tracking.
Ver. 01-14-13 31
Inspections Continued
E. Utility line installation, pipeline construction, and other examples of long, narrow, linear construction activities may limit the access of inspection personnel to the areas described above. Inspection of these areas could require that vehicles compromise temporarily or even permanently stabilized areas, cause additional disturbance of soils, and increase the potential for erosion. In these circumstances, controls must be inspected on the same frequencies as other construction projects, but representative inspections may be performed. For representative inspections, personnel must inspect controls along the construction site for 0.25 mile above and below each access point where a roadway, undisturbed right-of-way, or other similar feature intersects the construction site and allows access to the areas described above. The conditions of the controls along each inspected 0.25 mile segment may be considered as representative of the condition of controls along that reach extending from the end of the 0.25 mile segment to either the end of the next 0.25 mile inspected segment, or to the end of the project, whichever occurs first.
F. A record of each inspection and of any actions taken in accordance with this Part must be retained as part of the SWPPP for at least three years from the date that permit coverage expires or is terminated. The inspection reports must identify any incidents of non-compliance with the permit conditions. Where a report does not identify any incidents of non-compliance, the report must contain a certification that the construction project or site is in compliance with the SWPPP and this permit. The report must be signed in accordance with Appendix I, Section I.11 of this permit. When reports are signed using an electronic signature (for ease of emailing reports), signator will use robust second-factor authentication..
Ver. 01-14-13 32
Applicable State, Tribal, or Local Programs A The SWPPP must be consistent with all applicable federal, state, tribal, or local
requirements for soil and erosion control and storm water management, including updates to the SWPPP as necessary to reflect any revisions to applicable federal, state, tribal, or local requirements for soil and erosion control.
B Permittees which discharge storm water associated with construction activities must ensure their storm water pollution prevention plan is consistent with requirements specified in applicable sediment and erosion site plans or site permits, or storm water management site plans or site permits approved by State, Tribal or local officials. This SWPPP is in compliance with all applicable federal, state, tribal or local requirements concerning storm water runoff. Copies of any applicable requirements are attached to the SWPPP.
C Storm water pollution prevention plans must be updated as necessary to remain consistent with any changes applicable to protecting surface water resources in sediment and erosion site plans or site permits, or storm water management site plans or site permits approved by State, Tribal or local officials for which the permittee received written notice. This SWPPP will be amended as necessary to stay current with all federal, state, tribal or local regulations affecting storm water runoff from this project.

Habitat Requirements
For nesting, requires dense riparian habitats with microclimatic conditions dictated by the local surroundings. Saturated soils, standing water, or nearby streams, pools, or cienegas are a component of nesting habitat that also influcences the microclimate and density of the vegetation component. Habitat not suitable for nesting may be used for migration and foraging.

Primarily flying insects.
Movement / Home Range
The flycatcher is a summer breeder within its range in the United States. It is gone to wintering areas in Central America by the end of September. Nest territories are set up for breeding, and there is some site fidelity to nestterritories.
Reproductive Strategy
Arrives on breeding grounds in late April to early May. Nesting begins in late May and early June, with fledging from late June to mid-August. Typically lay 3-4 eggs per clutch, laid at one day intervals and are incubated by the female for about 12 days. Young birds fledge 12-13 days after hatching. Typically only raise one brood per year;however some pairs will raise a second brood, or renest after a nest failure.
Other
Loss and degradation of dense riparian habitats are the primary habitat threat to the flycatcher. Historically, water developments that altered flows in the rivers and streams were the primary threat. Now, with riparian areas limited and re-growth difficult due to changes in flows, fire is a significant risk to remaining habitats. Human disturbances at nesting sites may result in nest abandonment.

The Middle Rio Grande Endangered Species Act Collaborative Program Home
USFWS Privacy Statement
Welcome to the Middle Rio Grande Endangered Species Act Collaborative Program
The Middle Rio Grande Endangered Species Collaborative Program (Program) is a partnership involving 20 current signatories (see box below) organized to protect and improve the status of endangered species along the Middle Rio Grande (MRG) of New Mexico while simultaneously protecting existing and future regional water uses. Two species of particular concern to the Program are the Rio Grande silvery minnow and the southwestern willow flycatcher.
During fiscal year 2004 Congress appropriated nearly $7 million for Program activities, while New Mexico State agencies provided more than $2 million for Program related projects. Program signatories and non-signatory participants contributed in-kind services that included land, access to land, personnel services and voluntary fish salvage efforts.
Given the ongoing drought, the Program prioritized funding of activities in fiscal year 2004 to meet multiple Program objectives:
1. Manage species to ensure survival through activities that augment silvery minnow populations.
2. Restore species habitat, through activities that focus on projects that provide high value to the silvery minnow, that can be constructed 'on the ground' within two years, that are constructed upstream of the Isleta Diversion structure; and that have completed designs and permits in place.
3. Seek funding to acquire water to meet the flow requirements listed in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) 2003 Biological Opinion (BO), and implement supporting measures for water management to meet the long-term goal of a sustainable river.
The Program accomplished the following 2004 objectives:
1. The USFWS March 2003 BO limit on silvery minnows killed was not exceeded;
2. the upper reaches of the MRG were augmented with over a hundred thousand silvery minnows;
3. 12,865 silvery minnows were salvaged and relocated in 2004;
4. the USFWS March 2003 BO river flow targets were met; and
5. a number of habitat restoration projects were planned for the Albuquerque reach of the Rio Grande. Long-term restoration efforts include projects on river and bosque habitat throughout the MRG.
Recent Program Accomplishments:
● With the Santa Ana and Sandia pueblos, the Program has funded and implemented habitat restoration efforts that include a focus on the eradication of invasive saltcedar and other non-native species and the planting of native grasses and trees, with the goal to create diverse habitat for native plants and animals while reducing hazardous vegetative fuels that increase catastrophic risk to habitat as well as local residences.
● The Program, through the New Mexico Interstate Stream Commission (NMISC), completed a Long- Term Habitat Restoration Plan. This plan provides a framework to implement and integrate actions needed to

Its framework will guide efforts to solicit, review, and implement habitat restoration proposals intending to create long-term, self-sustaining habitat for the silvery minnow and the flycatcher. The plan also provides a technical resource for developing and assessing most Program-funded restoration projects.
● In 2003, a $1.7 million state-of-the-art facility was built for the breeding and rearing of silvery minnows in captivity. The City of Albuquerque Biological Park provided the land and is providing staff to manage and operate the Naturalized Refugium (refugium) with support from the NMISC. In 2004, captive spawns at the refugium produced 197,000 eggs, with an additional 150,000 eggs produced by hormone-induced spawns.

MRGEASCP - The Southwestern Willow Flycatcher
USFWS Privacy Statement
The Southwestern Willow Flycatcher
The 5 ¾-inch flycatcher breeds and rears it chicks in late spring and through the summer in New Mexico's dense riparian vegetation along streams, rivers, wetlands and reservoirs and in other arid southwestern states. In the fall, the flycatcher makes a strenuous migration thousands of miles to Mexico, Central, and possibly northern South America for the winter. When spring comes the flycatcher reverses its course and returns to our state hoping to find a suitable home for building its nest.
The flycatcher was added to the endangered species list in 1995 because its populations had declined primarily due to habitat loss. Changes in river and water management, residential and urban development; recreation; and livestock and wild ungulate overgrazing took its toll on habitat used during the breeding season.
The Middle Rio Grande Endangered Species Collaborative Program has undertaken riparian habitat restoration projects along the Rio Grande. By protecting the flycatcher and repairing its breeding habitat, the Southwestern Willow Flycatcher may recover its populations to a healthy level.

MRGEASCP - The Rio Grande Silvery Minnow
USFWS Privacy Statement
The Rio Grande Silvery Minnow
The Rio Grande Silvery Minnow (Hybognathusamarus/silvery minnow) is a stout minnow with moderately small eyes and a small, slightly oblique mouth. Adults may reach up to four inches in total length. Life color is silver with emerald reflections and fins are plain. Its dorsal fin is distinctly pointed. The silvery minnow currently exists in the Middle Rio Grande from Cochiti Dam downstream to the headwaters of Elephant Butte Reservoir, New Mexico.
Historically, the silvery minnow was among the most abundant and widespread fishes in the Rio Grande Basin, found from Española, N.M., to the Gulf of Mexico. It also was an inhabitant of the Pecos River, from Santa Rosa, N.M. to where the Pecos meets the Rio Grande in west Texas. Collection data indicate the species presently occupies about five percent of its historic range and is no longer present in the Pecos River or in the Rio Grande below Elephant Butte Reservor.

Designation of Critical Habitat for the Rio Grande Silvery Minnow; Final Rule
February 19, 2003 (Volume 68, Number 33)] [Rules and Regulations] [Page 8087-8135]
Designation of Critical Habitat for the Rio Grande Silvery Minnow; Final Rule
AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.
ACTION: Final rule: notice of availability.
SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), designate critical habitat for the Rio Grande silvery minnow (Hybognathus amarus) (silvery minnow), an endangered species under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act).
On June 6, 2002, we proposed that 212 miles (mi) (339 kilometers (km)) be designated as critical habitat for the silvery minnow.
The silvery minnow critical habitat designation in the Rio Grande extends from Cochiti Dam, Sandoval County, New Mexico (NM) downstream to the utility line crossing the Rio Grande, a permanent identified landmark in Socorro County, NM, a total of approximately 157 mi (252 km), referred to as the "middle Rio Grande.''
The designation also includes the tributary Jemez River from Jemez Canyon Dam in NM to the upstream boundary of Santa Ana Pueblo, which is not included. The critical habitat designation defines the lateral extent (width) as those areas bounded by existing levees or, in areas without levees, 300 feet (ft) (91.4 meters (m)) of riparian zone adjacent to each side of the bankfull stage of the middle Rio Grande.
The Pueblo lands of Santo Domingo, Santa Ana, Sandia, and Isleta within this area are not included in the final critical habitat designation.
Except for these areas, the final remaining portion of the silvery minnow's occupied range in the middle Rio Grande in NM is being designated as critical habitat.
This publication also provides notice of the availability of the final economic analysis and the final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for this final rule.
This final rule and EIS are being issued pursuant to a court order.
On November 21, 2000, the United States District Court for the District of New Mexico, in Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District v. Babbitt, 206 F. Supp. 2d 1156 (D.N.M. 2000), set aside the July 6, 1999, critical habitat designation for the minnow and ordered us to issue both an EIS pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and a new proposed rule designating critical habitat for the silvery minnow.
DATES: This final rule is effective March 21, 2003.
ADDRESSES: Comments and materials received, as well as supporting documentation used in the preparation of this final rule, are available for public inspection, by
appointment, during normal business hours at the New Mexico Ecological Services Field Office, 2105 Osuna Road NE, Albuquerque, NM 87113.
You may obtain copies of the final rule, the economic analysis, or the final EIS from the field office address above or by calling 505-346-2525. All documents are also available from our Web site at http://ifw2es.fws.gov/Library/

Thank you for your recent request for information on threatened or endangered species or important wildlife habitats that may occur in your project area. The New Mexico Ecological Services Field Office has posted lists of the endangered, threatened, proposed, candidate and species of concern occurring in all New Mexico Counties on the Internet. Please refer to the following web page for species information in the county where your project occurs: http://ifw2es.fws.gov/NewMexico/SBC_intro.cfm. If you do not have access to the Internet or have difficulty obtaining a list, please contact our office and we will mail or fax you a list as soon as possible. After opening the web page, find New Mexico Listed and Sensitive Species Lists on the main page and click on the county of interest. Your project area may not necessarily include all or any of these species. This information should assist you in determining which species may or may not occur within your project area. Under the Endangered Species Act, as amended (Act), it is the responsibility of the Federal action agency or its designated representative to determine if a proposed action "may affect" endangered, threatened, or proposed species, or designated critical habitat, and if so, to consult with us further. Similarly, it is their responsibility to determine if a proposed action has no effect to endangered, threatened, or proposed species, or designated critical habitat. If your action area has suitable habitat for any of these species, we recommend that species-specific surveys be conducted during the flowering season for plants and at the appropriate time for wildlife to evaluate any possible project-related impacts. Please keep in mind that the scope of federally listed species compliance also includes any interrelated or interdependent project activities (e.g., equipment staging areas, offsite borrow material areas, or utility relocations) and any indirect or cumulative effects. Candidates and species of concern have no legal protection under the Act and are included on the web site for planning purposes only. We monitor the status of these species. If significant declines are detected, these species could potentially be listed as endangered or threatened. Therefore, actions that may contribute to their decline should be avoided. We recommend that candidates and species of concern be included in your surveys. Also on the web site, we have included additional wildlife-related information that should be considered if your project is a specific type. These include communication towers, power line safety for raptors, road and highway improvements and/or construction, spring developments and livestock watering facilities, wastewater facilities, and trenching operations.

Under Executive Orders 11988 and 11990, Federal agencies are required to minimize the destruction, loss, or degradation of wetlands and floodplains, and preserve and enhance their natural and beneficial values. We recommend you contact the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for permitting requirements under section 404 of the Clean Water Act if your proposed action could impact floodplains or wetlands. These habitats should be conserved through avoidance, or mitigated to ensure no net loss of wetlands function and value. The Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) prohibits the taking of migratory birds, nests, and eggs, except as permitted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. To minimize the likelihood of adverse impacts to all birds protected under the MBTA, we recommend construction activities occur outside the general migratory bird nesting season of March through August, or that areas proposed for construction during the nesting season be surveyed, and when occupied, avoided until nesting is complete. We suggest you contact the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish, and the New Mexico Energy, Minerals, and Natural Resources Department, Forestry Division for information regarding fish, wildlife, and plants of State concern. Thank you for your concern for endangered and threatened species and New Mexico’s wildlife habitats. We appreciate your efforts to identify and avoid impacts to listed and sensitive species in your project area. Sincerely, Brian Hanson Acting Field Supervisor
