Good afternoon Chris,
Thank you for the opportunity for Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) to comment on the
proposed Ault to Cloverly Transmission Line Project. It is our understanding that within
this project, transmission lines will be spanning northwest of Ault south on Highway 85
and extend east towards existing lines at the Cloverly station on C.R. 41 and 64.
The mission of CPW is to perpetuate the wildlife resources of the state, to provide a
quality state parks system, and to provide enjoyable and sustainable outdoor recreation
opportunities that educate and inspire current and future generations to serve as active
stewards of Colorado's natural resources. CPW has a statutory responsibility to manage
all wildlife species in Colorado, and to promote a variety of recreational opportunities
throughout Colorado. One way we achieve this goal is by responding to referral comment
requests, as is the case for this project.
CPW appreciates the early consultation, and at this time Colorado Parks and Wildlife
finds no conflicts with our interests.
If the timing or scope of this project changes and/or if you have any questions,
please contact myself or Troy Florian at jckson.davisstate.co.us or
troy,.flQrian@-state.Co.us or at 970-342-0461 and 970-443-1993.
Thank you, Jackson Davis
