Proposed Project will cut right through Core Moose habitat
The Proposed Wind Energy Project will cut right through the High Density core moose habitat areas. The construction phase with blasting and massive equipment and road work, will cause avoidance, and increased stress, and possible interference with calving areas. In addition hundreds of additional trucks, cars and equipment a day will increase the risks of accidental … Continue reading Proposed Project will cut right through Core Moose habitat
WILDLIFE POPULATION DECLINES -Due to Industrialization of ridgelines.
WILDLIFE POPULATION DECLINES Large scale habitat loss and disturbances as a consequence of industrial energy exploration and development, mining, timber extraction, and backcountry recreation have been demonstrated to contribute to wildlife population declines. Described by conservation scientists as “death by a thousand cuts”, individual impacts may be regarded as minor. However, these disturbances are now … Continue reading WILDLIFE POPULATION DECLINES -Due to Industrialization of ridgelines.
Habitat Changes, In Turn,Influence The Health Of Wildlife Populations
This project not ONLY will be to alter the environment where they construct the turbines, there is no adequate road to the site and no existing electricity infrastructure. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center document: "Most of these facilities tie into existing electricity transmission infrastructure and require service roads and … Continue reading Habitat Changes, In Turn,Influence The Health Of Wildlife Populations
