Dillon Ranger District, White River National Forest
Summit County, Colorado
COMMENTS WELCOME
The Dillon Ranger District of the White River National Forest (WRNF) welcomes your comments on
proposed projects at Copper Mountain Resort. Your comments will help us complete an
Environmental Assessment (EA). Details on how to comment are found at the conclusion of this
document.
Consistent with direction found in 36 CFR 215.5 (Legal Notice of Proposed Actions), this Notice of
Proposed Action (NOPA) has been prepared to solicit public comments on: the Purpose and Need for
Action; the Proposed Action; and potential alternatives to the Proposed Action. Potential effects of
the Proposed Action on the human and biological environments will be analyzed and disclosed in an
EA, which will take into account public comment received in response to this NOPA. A Decision
Notice will be released concurrent with the EA. The project Decision Notice will document the
Responsible Official`s selected alternative. Per 36 CFR 215 (Notice, Comment, and Appeal
Procedures for National Forest System Projects and Activities) a 45-day administrative appeal period
will accompany release of the Decision Notice.
BACKGROUND
Copper Mountain Resort (CMR) opened to the public in 1972 and operates under a Forest Service-
issued special use permit (SUP) authorizing the use of National Forest System (NFS) lands for the
purposes of constructing, operating and maintaining a winter sports resort, including food services,
rentals, retail sales, and other ancillary facilities. CMR is located partially on private land, and
partially on the White River National Forest (WRNF), in Summit County, Colorado. The vast
majority of the skiing facilities (i.e., the lifts and trails) are located on NFS lands. The ski area is
located approximately 75 miles west of Denver, and 20 miles east of Vail. The closest town is Frisco,
Colorado, which is approximately 7 miles northeast of the resort. CMR is accessed via exit 195 off of
Interstate 70, and is located immediately adjacent to the interstate. The existing ski area provides
approximately 2,465 acres of total skiable terrain. Elevations range from 9,710 feet at the base of the
mountain to 12,300 feet at the summit.
Guest expectations continue to evolve in today`s competitive skier/rider market and resorts must
constantly focus on raising service standards and improving the overall recreational experience. The
most substantive infrastructural or qualitative improvements in recent years have been the $500
million redevelopment of the Village at Copper base area, and the installation of two detachable lifts
in 1998the Super Bee and the Excelerator.
Copper Mountain Resort 2013 Mountain Improvements Project Notice of Proposed Action
2
In accordance with the terms of the SUP, CMR completed an update to the resort`s Master
Development Plan (MDP) in 2011 to outline plans for future development and improvements on NFS
lands within the SUP area. All of the projects in this proposal are identified in, and consistent with,
CMR`s 2011 MDP, which has been reviewed and accepted by the WRNF. The WRNF recently
accepted CMR`s proposal Ior these projects, and is now initiating a site-specific review and
assessment as required by NEPA.
The 2011 MDP Project proposal is designed to improve the overall recreational experience at CMR
by accommodating existing and future guest expectations. Proposed projects specifically address: the
resort`s Iamily atmosphere; on-mountain experience; teaching opportunities; lift infrastructure;
environmental sustainability; and resort maintenance/operations.
Prior to the 2011 MDP, CMR conducted an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for a broad array
of projects at the resort. That EIS was subsequently approved by the USFS`s Record oI Decision
(ROD) in January 2006. Few, of the projects included in that ROD have been implemented at this
time, due to changes in ownership and direction at CMR. That EIS/ROD is relevant to this NOPA
because many of the currently proposed projects have similar or identical impacts. The survey work
and analysis that was conducted as part of that EIS process are still applicable today and are referred
to in this NOPA and will be in the subsequent EA.
PURPOSE AND NEED FOR ACTION
The Purpose and Need for Action is focused on improving the quality of the recreational experience
at Copper Mountain, as well as add to CMR`s operational eIIiciencies.
Need #1: Increase Lift Capacity and Update Antiquated Lift
Infrastructure
Several lifts at Copper Mountain are antiquated, slow, and/or under-sized, which collectively has led
to sub-optimal guest service and insufficient lift capacity. Especially during peak days, several of
CMR`s existing liIts do not meet the needs oI guests or ski area managers in terms of long lift lines
and choices for access to various areas of the mountain. Furthermore, the existing lifts constrain areas
of the mountain which could be better utilized for teaching terrain. For example, the existing Kokomo
lift does not efficiently service the surrounding teaching terrain. The base of the lift is too distant from
the base area facilities and provides insufficient capacity. Replacing the lift with a high-speed
detachable four-place chairlift, and bringing the bottom terminal closer to the Union Creek base area
facilities would greatly improve CMR`s ability to meet the needs oI the Ski and Ride School guests
on peak days.
Antiquated lifts present formidable maintenance and reliability problems. The Storm King lift has
been in operation since 1985, and over its life has provided access to Spaulding Bowl and the Upper
Enchanted Forest/Copper Bowl. However, this lift now requires excessive maintenance and operates
unreliably.
Surface lifts are geared toward sections of the mountain where people frequently hike, such as in
terrain parks or bowl skiing, areas where higher capacity lifts are not necessary, where lower trail
3
densities are desired, and where wind and terrain conditions do not allow aerial lifts. Two identified
opportunities where surface lifts could improve the recreational experience at CMR are Union
Meadows, where people hike to access Copper Bowl, and the Catalyst Terrain Park. In particular, a
surface lift would be beneficial during the late-spring/early-summer operating period when the
Woodward at Copper training program is offered. A surface lift would expedite training and
circulation of athletes to the top of the park.
To respond to this need the following projects are proposed:
x Kokomo lift replacement
x Storm King lift replacement
x Union Meadows new surface lift
x Woodward and Terrain Park new surface lift
Need #2: Enhance Copper Mountain's FamiIy Atmosphere, Learn-
to-Ski/Ride Experience, and Teaching Facilities
CMR is committed to promoting a family-friendly atmosphere and an outstanding learning
experience. The resort is well-known for its teaching facilities, and especially for Woodward at
Copperthe indoor ski and snowboard training centerand associated on-mountain facilities.
Maintaining an innovative and high quality family and learning experience requires constant attention
to facilities, infrastructure, and services.
The Union Creek base portal has long been identified as an important place for Copper Mountain to
bolster its teaching facilities. Improved access to the gentle terrain found in the Kokomo and
Lumberjack lift areas is needed in order to continue to offer a quality teaching program (see Need
#1). This area is ideal Ior CMR`s Ski and Ride School, especially on peak days when overflow
teaching terrain is needed.
Presently, there is no immediate viewing area for the Catalyst Terrain Park and year-round Woodward
at Copper on-mountain training facilities (including late-spring/early-summer features such as hits
and an airbag). Providing a viewing area here would present a great opportunity for coaches and
spectators to oversee the activities of this area.
x Kokomo teaching facilities improvements
Roundabout Trail Grading
Kokomo Lift Replacement
x Kokomo Teaching Surface Lifts Woodward and Terrain Park viewing deck addition
Need #3: Improve Skier Access, Egress, and the On-Snow
Experience across Copper Mountain
Currently, there are a number of areas on Copper Mountain that present challenges for skiers and ski
area managers. These include access trails between key areas of the mountain, egress areas, and areas
4
surrounding existing infrastructure that could be improved for better maintenance and a more
enjoyable on-snow experience.
With CMR`s extensive trail system, it is important to continuously identiIy areas that present
challenges to providing logical and efficient movement between key areas of the mountain. For
example, the Lower Woodwinds Traverse trail serves skiers/riders traveling between the Timberline
Express and Union Creek Express areas to the Kokomo/Lumberjack/Union Creek areas. This trail is
very low angle and is off camber, making it difficult for skiers and nearly impassable for
snowboarders.
Towards the Union Creek Base area and base of the Kokomo lift, the existing width of the lower
Roundabout trail is constrained. This narrow area has never been remedied due to two factors: 1) a
large knob in the current location of tower 3 of the Kokomo Lift; and 2) the presence of Union Creek
where it enters a culvert and flows under the ski trail. In conjunction with replacing the Kokomo Lift
(project 2), and the potential for tower 3 to be removed/relocated, there exists an opportunity to re-
grade and improve this present choke point.
There are also a number of areas that not only present challenges for skiers, but for managers, due to
harsh conditions and rugged terrain. The current entrance of the Enchanted Forest trail is narrow,
winding, and un-groomablerequiring extensive hand-work to maintain skiability. CMR struggles to
maintain adequate snow coverage on this trail throughout the season. Similarly, the run-out trail for
Spaulding Bowl is presently characterized by large boulders and talus which require extensive snow
cover to become skiable. In many instances, the upper areas of Spaulding Bowl become skiable in
advance oI CMR`s ability to open the egress trail. Lastly, the terrain immediately surrounding Sierra
Lift Tower 7 continues to pose problems for skiing, grooming, and snow retention.
x T-Rex Connector trail
x Enchanted Forest improved access
x Lower Roundabout trail improvements
x Spaulding Bowl runout trail
x Sierra Lift tower 7 grading
Need #4: Improve Copper Mountain's EnvironmentaI SustainabiIity
It is an ongoing goal oI CMR to improve the resort`s environmental sustainability through increased
use of renewable energy. Considering the outstanding wind resources available at Copper Mountain,
wind turbines present a great opportunity to partially oIIset some oI the resort`s power needs. Small
vertical (cylindrical) turbines, at approximately 24 feet in height with a circumference of roughly
2 feet, are capable of generating up to 2,000 kilowatt hours per year.

PROPOSED ACTION
Components of the Proposed Action focus on addressing the needs that were previously identified.
Each proposed project element is identified on the attached figure. If approved, construction of the
proposed improvements would occur primarily in the summer months and, given the short
construction season at Copper Mountain`s higher elevations, could be expected to be completed over
multiple construction seasons. In conjunction with any approved ground disturbing activities, best
management practices would be implemented to avoid or minimize resource impacts (e.g., soil, water
and vegetation). All disturbed areas would be revegetated and stabilized promptly.
Calculations presented in this NOPA document were produced using Geographic Information
Systems (GIS) software and while accurate, they are approximate values. As further analysis is
completed for the EA, these values will become more precise.
Lower Roundabout Grading
The existing width of the lower Roundabout trail is significantly constrained immediately above the
Union Creek base area and the base of the Kokomo Lift. This narrow area has never been remedied
due to a large earthen berm in the current location of tower 3 of the Kokomo Lift and the presence of
Union Creek where it enters a culvert and flows under the ski trail. As the Kokomo Lift is replaced,
and tower 3 is removed/moved, there would be an opportunity to re-grade and improve this present
choke point. The project would entail re-contouring the current ski trail to establish a consistent
skiable grade (+/-10%) for guests as they flow into the base area. Approximately 5 acres of ground
disturbance, including 0.2 acre of tree clearing, would also be required to establish the necessary
width. While the majority of this project would be located on private property, the disturbance area
does extend onto adjacent National Forest System lands. The total project area on National Forest
would be approximately 1.6 acres.
Kokomo Lift Replacement and Teaching Facilities
The existing Kokomo triple chairliIt is planned to be replaced with a new chairliIt. The liIt`s top
terminal would be located in approximately the same position as the existing Kokomo top terminal.
The bottom terminal would be located adjacent to the Union Creek base facilities, on Forest Service
land. This new lift would be used for round trip skiing as well as to transport beginning skiers and
riders to two conveyor surface lifts that are strategically planned for ease of access from the Kokomo
liIt, on the gentle terrain north oI the liIt`s top terminal. These conveyors and slopes would be used by
CMR`s Ski and Ride school, especially on peak days when overflow teaching terrain is needed. The
proposed Kokomo Lift would be approximately 3,000 feet in length and have a capacity of 1,800
people per hour. Roughly half of the new lift alignment would be located on private property.
The Kokomo Lift replacement has a lengthy and complex approval history. The upgrade and
replacement of the Kokomo Lift (in its current alignment) was originally authorized via a 1998
Supplemental Information Report. Subsequently, an Environmental Assessment/DN-FONSI
1
was
finalized in June 2002 which authorized the Kokomo Lift to be upgraded to a gondola, realigned, and
lengthened to extend to the top of the present Lumberjack Lift. The lift approved under the EA was

planned to be 6,830 feet in length and was authorized for 6.9 acres of tree removal to create the lift
alignment corridor

.
2
Additionally this EA granted approval of a 300-seat food service facility, a water
storage tank (180,000 gallons), necessary utilities, a teaching chairlift (1,384 feet in length), two
surface conveyor lifts, and a new road segment all within the Kokomo/Lumberjack area.
Finally, the 2006 Trails and Facilities Improvements EIS reaffirmed the previous analysis of the
Kokomo Lift upgrade with its inclusion of the project as a previously approved, unimplemented,
reasonably foreseeable future action. The anticipated impacts of the lift replacement were included
within the cumulative effects disclosure.
Given the lengthy history of approvals for this project, it would appear that sufficient documentation
exists to allow the presently planned lift replacement and teaching facilities to be authorized without
further analysis. However, the planned lift replacement, in its final configuration, has been included
within this analysis to provide a final re-authorization of the project.
Woodward and Terrain Park Surface Lift
To provide roundtrip access to enthusiasts of the Catalyst Terrain Park, a surface lift is planned to be
located immediately to the west of the park adjacent to the Union Creek Express lift. Roughly 1,080
feet in length, this lift would have a capacity of 600 people per hour. The installation of this lift would
primarily facilitate summer camps which are presently hosted in conjunction with the Woodward
training program. The lift would partially utilize the existing clearing for the Union Creek Express
and would additionally be aligned within the tree island to the east. It is anticipated that
approximately 1.2 acres of timber would need to be cleared for the lift alignment.
Storm King Lift Replacement
Constructed in 1985 and providing primary access to Spaulding Bowl and Upper Enchanted
Forest/Copper Bowl, the current Storm King surface lift has served its purpose well. The present lift
equipment is antiquated, requires excessive maintenance and operates unreliably. CMR proposes to
replace the Storm King lift in essentially its present alignment. The new lift would also be configured
as a surface lift approximately 1,900 feet in length and provide an hourly capacity of approximately
1,200 people-per-hour. In conjunction with replacing the lift, a segment of snow/wind fence is
planned along the windward (west) side of the lift. The top terminal of the lift, and roughly the top
400 feet of the lift, and snow fence would be located on private land.
Union Meadows Surface Lift
Facilitating access into Copper Bowl, a surface lift is proposed to be located west of the existing
Sierra Lift in the Union Meadows area. Presently, guests wishing to access Copper Bowl must hike
from atop the Sierra Lift to gain the ridge which allows them to drop into Copper Bowl. The proposed
surface lift would allow guests to ride the Sierra Lift, ski to the west and take the surface lift to the
ridge and thereby to Copper Bowl. This lift would be approximately 850 feet in length and have a
capacity of 800 people per hour. To protect the lift from windscour, a snow fence would be installed
along the windward (west) side of the lift for the majority of its length. Single phase power is present
to the top of the existing Sierra Lift. At this time, CMR anticipates that an additional power line

2
Ibid. p. DN/FONSI-13
7
would need to be installed from the primary feed located near the Timberline Patrol station to the
bottom terminal of the planned surface lift. The additional power line would be 'stung into the
ground using a dozer and vibrating shoe, as was the existing power line in the mid-1990s. A short
segment of construction access road would be necessary to reach the bottom terminal location. While
equipment would be necessary at the top terminal location, access would be gained via a temporary
construction access route without the need for a road.
T-Rex Connector Trail
The proposed T-Rex Connector trail would provide improved access for guests wishing to ski from
within the Timberline Express, Union Creek Express, and Kokomo/Lumberjack/Union Creek area.
The existing skiing connection between these areas requires skiers and riders to utilize the Lower
Woodwinds Traverse trail. This trail is very low angle and is off-camber making it difficult for skiers
and nearly impassable for snowboarders. The planned trail would originate near the bottom terminal
of the Timberline Express Lift and terminate adjacent to the top of the Kokomo Lift. This trail
segment would be roughly 2,125 feet in length, have an average width of 50 feet and require
approximately 2.3 acres of vegetation clearing. Additionally, ground re-contouring would be required
in places (approximately 0.9 acre) to ensure an even, skiable grade along the length of the entire trail.
Enchanted Forest Access
The existing entrance to the popular Enchanted Forest trail is presently a narrow and winding track
created each season via an assortment of portable snow fencing and extensive hand shoveling. The
guest experience remains poor throughout the season. To remedy this challenge, CMR proposes to
rework the entrance through a combination of grading, rockwork (which may include rock stacking,
blasting and relocation), and the construction of retaining wall segments on the downhill and uphill
sides of the traverse. Additionally, a structural boardwalk may be constructed in sections of the
traverse to provide a skiable surface. The overall length of the traverse to be improved is
approximately 1,150 feet and the project would incorporate roughly 1.2 acres of terrain. While the
final design of the project has not yet been completed, the overall goal would be to ultimately create a
new trail entrance, which is frequently groomable and is roughly one snowcat in width (+/-25 feet).
Spaulding Bowl Run-out Trail
The egress area of Spaulding Bowl is presently characterized by large boulders and talus which
require extensive snow cover to become skiable. In many instances, the upper areas of Spaulding
Bowl become skiable in advance oI CMR`s ability to open the egress trail. This project would
recontour and smooth an adequate path out of the base of the bowl to allow grooming and skiing
earlier in the season. Construction techniques would include rock removal, relocation and potentially
blasting. Approximately 1,560 feet in length and varying width, the proposed grading area would be
approximately 1.4 acres in total size. Of this total, 0.8 acre (910 linear feet) would be on National
Forest System land with the remainder on private property.
Sierra Lift Tower 7 Grading
Since the original construction of the Sierra Lift, the terrain immediately surrounding tower 7 has
been problematic for skiing, grooming and snow retention. CMR proposes to grade, smooth and rock
pick this area to create a more easily prepared skiing surface and to remove the abrupt break-over.
8
The total area proposed for disturbance is approximately 1.2 acres. The site would receive full
revegetation/reclamation at the completion of the grading project.
Union Peak Wind Turbines
Furthering its commitment to sustainability and use of renewable energy, CMR proposes to install
two vertical wind turbines in the vicinity of the Union Peak Ski Patrol Station. Capable of generating
up to 2,000kWh per year, these turbines would be approximately 24 feet in height and have a
circumference of roughly 24 inches. They would be mounted on a small concrete footer.
Woodward and Terrain Park Viewing Deck
Enhancing the Catalyst Terrain Park, a new viewing deck is proposed to be constructed around the
existing 'sound shack located mid-way along the park adjacent to A-Road. Constructed primarily of
wood, the deck would be approximately 25 feet by 37 feet in size. A minimal amount of tree clearing
may be necessary to provide space behind the existing building

MANAGEMENT DIRECTION
The 2002 White River National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan) includes
33 separate Management Areas for different portions of the forest based on ecological conditions,
historic development, and anticipated future conditions. All components of the Proposed Action fall
within the 8.25 Management Area Ski Areas (Existing and Potential), which directs:
'Facilities may be intensively used throughout the year to satisfy a variety of
seasonal recreational demands. Protection of scenic values is emphasized through
9
application of basic landscape aesthetics and design principles, integrated with
forest management and development obfectives. Transportation svstems provide
convenient access to National Forest System lands in key portal locations with
adequate public parking, base facilities, and community infrastructure. Base areas
that serve as entrance portals are designed as gateways to public lands. They are
architecturally designed to blend with the forest setting and contain convenient
facilities and services that provide for the needs of forest visitors.`

As part of the analysis, the Purpose and Need for Action and the Proposed Action are being reviewed
to determine consistency with the Forest-wide/Management Area Goals and Objectives as well as the
specific Standards and Guidelines for Management Area 8.25. The 2008 Southern Rockies Lynx
Management Direction (SRLMD) amended the 2002 Forest Plan with respect to Forest-wide and
Management Area 8.25 Canada lynx standards and guidelines. No inconsistencies between the
Proposed Action and pertinent standards and guidelines have been identified at this time.
NATURE OF DECISION TO BE MADE
The responsible official is the Forest Supervisor of the White River National Forest. The responsible
official will review the upcoming EA and will consider the Purpose and Need for Action, the
Proposed Action (and other potential alternatives), any public comments, and the administrative
record in order to make this decision.
In addition to determining which alternative to select, the Forest Supervisor will also determine which
Project Design Criteria (PDC) and best management practices (BMP) to require to avoid, minimize,
and mitigate impacts to resources.
PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT
The project was first listed in the Schedule of Proposed Actions in January 2013 and updates are
provided quarterly. Further information about this project can be found on our website at
http://www.fs.fed.us/nepa/fs-usda-pop.php/?project=41009.
ALTERNATIVES TO THE PROPOSED ACTION
No Action
The effects of not taking action will be analyzed as required by Council on Environmental Quality
regulations (40 CFR 1502.14(d). By definition, the No Action Alternative represents a continuation of
existing management practices without changes, additions, or upgrades to existing conditions. The No
Action Alternative serves as the baseline for which to compare the potential environmental effects of
the Proposed Action.

SUMMARY OF RESOURCE SURVEYS AND INVENTORIES
Wildlife & Vegetation
Field Surveys
Field surveys were conducted through all project component areas on July 26 and August 6, 2012.
For plants, focused (intuitive controlled) survey methods were followed, with systematic surveys
conducted at good quality potential habitat for all federally-listed, U.S. Forest Service (USFS) Region
2 (R2) sensitive species, and WRNF plant Species of Local Concern (SOLC). For animals, surveys
characterized and field verified habitat and lynx habitat types and opportunistically searched for
evidence of all federally-listed, proposed, and candidate species, USFS R2 sensitive species,
Management Indicator Species (MIS), and migratory birds that may occur in the vicinity of project
component areas or that may be affected otherwise by the implementation of the Proposed Action.
Consideration was also given to the project area`s location in the landscape Ior broader habitat
connectivity considerations. Project-specific field surveys supplemented the extensive plant, habitat,
and animal database that is available for CMSA as a result of other project-related field.
13
Impact Analyses and Environmental Consequences
Field survey results have not been fully analyzed at the time of this writing, so project effects
considered in this NOPA are general, qualitative, and tentative. Impacts of the action alternatives will
be quantified with respect to direct losses of individuals of particular species, habitat types, lynx
habitat types, and changes to LAU statistics. Reasonably foreseeable and reasonably certain project
effects will be analyzed, as appropriate, on those species that would be affected by the action
alternatives. Forest Plan and Southern Rockies Lynx Assessment (SRLA) consistency analyses will
be conducted for all action alternatives. Project Design Criteria will be developed as measures
required to avoid, minimize, and mitigate impacts to the plant and animal resources that could be
affected by the action alternatives.
Federally Listed Threatened and Endangered Species
The focal plant and animal issues associated with the Proposed Action will be potential project effects
to the threatened Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) and the four endangered, big river fish (humpback
chub [G. cypha], bonytail [Gila elegans], Colorado pikeminnow [Ptychocheilus lucius], and
razorback sucker [Xyrauchen texanus]). All project effects on lynx will be analyzed under the most
current FS direction. A SRLA consistency analysis will be conducted for all action alternatives. If all
the proposed projects fall within the range of impacts previously considered as part of other projects
that have gone through Section 7 consultation and all are consistent with the SRLA, then no further
consultation on lynx would be required for this project. Tentatively, the Proposed Action would not
meaningfully impair existing habitat connectivity across the ski area and would be consistent with all
applicable SRLA.
Other federally-listed and proposed species will be evaluated, including Penland alpine fen mustard
(Eutrema penlandii), Uncompahgre fritillary butterfly (Boloria acrocnema), greenback cutthroat trout
(Oncorhynchus clarkii stomias), and others as appropriate.
Forest Service Region 2 Sensitive Species
Regarding R2 sensitive species, potential project effects will be evaluated on those plants and animals
on current lists that could occur in the action area. No R2 plants were located within project
component areas during specific surveys. Some R2 animal species and/or their habitats are present in
project component areas. Determination of potential project effects to sensitive plants will consider
the habitat requirements, number of individuals/ populations affected, size, density, vigor, and
location of the affected population(s), total number of individuals and populations, and consequence
of adverse effects on the species as a whole within the WRNF and within its range. Determination of
potential project effects to sensitive animals (including insects, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and
mammals) will consider the area, configuration, and function of suitable and occupied habitat
affected, home range size and number of individuals affected, size, density, and location of the
population, and consequence of adverse effects on the species as a whole within the WRNF and
within its range.
Management Indicator Species
Regarding MIS, from the current list of Forest-wide MIS, elk (Cervus elaphus), aquatic
macroinvertebrates, and all trout will be evaluated in detail as project MIS, based on Forest Plan
selection criteria and the presence or potential occurrence of these organisms and their habitats on
14
NFS lands within or adjacent to the project area. Other MIS were not selected as project MIS and will
not be evaluated in detail because they do not occur on NFS lands in the project area and they and
their associated habitats on NFS lands would not be affected by the Proposed Action.
Migratory Birds
Regarding migratory birds, the analysis will consider project effects to migratory bird species that
have been identified as candidates for conservation priority by at least one of the following five lists:
(1) the USFWS`s Birds oI Conservation Concern list for the Southern Rockies/Colorado Plateau Bird
Conservation Region 16, (2) Colorado Partners in Flight Bird Conservation Plan for the Southern
Rocky Mountains Physiographic Area (Area 62), (3) the Colorado State Threatened and Endangered
list, (4) species designated as Sensitive by the U.S. Forest Service Rocky Mountain Region, (5)
species listed under the federal Endangered Species Act, and (6) species designated as MIS on the
WRNF.
Plant Species of Local Concern
Regarding plant SOLC, the analysis will consider project effects to individuals and aggregations of
those species located in the CMSA project component areas during focused (intuitive controlled) and
systematic field surveys.
Water Resources
The general hydrology of the CMR SUP area was extensively documented during the 2006
EIS process, and including an inventory of existing streamflow, stream health and water
quality.
Wetlands
Waters of the U.S., including wetlands within the project areas were delineated in 2012 to establish
boundaries proximate to proposed project and ground disturbing activities. The U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers conducted a site visit with the Forest Service on August 15, 2012, to review delineated and
flagged boundaries. Flagged wetland and stream boundaries were GPSed and surveyed within project
areas.
Archaeological
Previous Cultural Resource Inventories within the CMR SUP Area
All areas within the CMR SUP area that were proposed to receive ground disturbance as part of the
2006 EIS, including utility and lift corridors, new facilities locations, and new ski trails, had been
surveyed in cultural resource inventories. These surveys included eight cultural resource inventories
conducted in the CMR SUP, dating back to 1976. Two surveys were conducted in 1976 by Gordon
and Kranzush Archaeological Consultants, and five additional surveys were conducted by Mariah
Associates, Inc. in 1984, 1986, 1987, 1989, and 1993. In 2002, Metcalf Archaeological Consultants
surveyed approximately 2,300 feet of the proposed North Cabin Chute trail and approximately 1,500
fee of the proposed Tucker Lift access road.

COMMENT PROCESS
At this time, the Forest Service is combining the scoping process with the legal notice and
opportunity to comment, as described in 36 CFR 215.3. The public is encouraged to provide
substantive comments on this Proposed Action, including supporting reasons the responsible official
should consider in reaching a decision (36 CFR 215.6(a)(3). Substantive comments are within the
scope and specific to the project and have a direct relationship to the proposed action. This will be
your only time to submit formal written comments on this project.
Comments concerning this Proposed Action will be accepted for 30 calendar days following the
publication of a legal notice in the Glenwood Post Independent, on or about February 8th, 2013. The
regulations prohibit extending the length of the comment period.
Written comments must be submitted via mail, fax, or in person (Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m.
to 4:30 p.m., excluding holidays) to: Scott Fitzwilliams, Forest Supervisor, c/o Shelly Grail Braudis,
Snow Ranger, PO Box 620, Silverthorne, CO 80498. Electronic comments including Word (.docx) or
PDF attachments can be submitted to
https://cara.ecosystem-management.org/Public/CommentInput?Project=41009.
The name and mailing address of the person submitting electronic comments must be included.
It is the responsibility of persons providing comments to submit them by the close of the comment
period. Only those who submit timely comments will have eligibility to appeal the subsequent
decision under 36 CFR 215. Individuals and organizations wishing to be eligible to appeal must meet
the information requirements of 36 CFR 215.6. Names and contact information submitted with
comments will become part of the public record and may be released under the Freedom of
Information Act.
If the agency determines there are no significant impacts, that finding along with the EA and a
decision notice will be published. A 45-day appeal period will be provided after release of the EA,
finding of no significant impact, and decision notice. If the EA concludes there is potential for
significant impacts, then an environmental impact statement will need to be prepared.
