Other claims quoted on this page
Forest covers about 41 acres and the draft layout clears about 38 acres of trees.
Suitable roost trees occur at moderate density, about 6 per acre in riparian forest and 3 per acre in woodlots.
Summer bat habitat for Indiana, northern long-eared and tricolored bats was assessed June 5 to 9, 2023, and rated suitable for all three species.
No caves are present, and the two collapsed Elsby No. 2 Mine entries on Parcel 10 are sealed with no opening usable by bats.
No hibernacula are known within 5 miles.
No presence or absence survey (acoustic or mist net) has been done for bats.
Cut trees only from October 1 to March 31, leave riparian forest within 100 feet of Sallow Creek standing, and survey first if summer clearing is needed.
With winter clearing the project would likely be found not likely to adversely affect listed bats, but the tricolored bat's proposed listing could add conditions.
Bobolink and eastern meadowlark were seen in hayfields of Parcels 12 to 14, and red-tailed hawks nest in the West Block woodlots.
ODNR records an active bald eagle nest about 0.9 mile east of the East Block, beyond the 660-foot disturbance buffer.
