Alternative A would implement the Strategic Management Plan For Sage Grouse (State of Utah, June 11, 2002) as the baseline threshold. Alternatives A and B would result in the avoidance of all human disturbances within 0.6 mile of a sage grouse lek during the sage grouse breeding season (March 1 to May 31) from 1 hour before sunrise to 3 hours after sunset. In Alternative A roads, fences, poles, and utility lines would not be developed within 1,300 feet of a lek." |
