Title: No surface-disturbing activities on special status plant habitat.
Text: 3.2.2 Uinta Basin Hookless Cactus: VE10. "Do not allow surface-disturbing activities on 48,000 acres of special status plant habitat. A site-specific analysis will be completed to determine if site characteristics exclude potential habitat from a proposed surface-disturbing activity. (The 48,000-acre special status plant habitat occupies portions of Pariette Wash drainage within the project study area — see Figure 3-1.)" [see Figure 3-1, page 3-31]
