Proposed Expansion of the KB Quarry
Chino intends to expand or explore within the entirety of the claim footprint (the Project), which totals approximately 129 acres of Gila National Forest (GNF) and private land.
This environmental assessment will establish an ecological baseline for the site through systematic field evaluation, including wetland delineation, rare species surveys, and vegetation community mapping. S A strict "stop-work" buffer will be enforced if any sensitive wildlife features, such as active nests or burrows, are encountered. The project will conclude with a documented record of all findings, including geotagged photography and field data, to provide a defensible account of the site's ecological condition.

This is just to see if a species is found in this area. I just want to see if this area has any badger records. What else can I write here? AI OverviewThe American badger (Taxidea taxus) lives across all 33 counties in New Mexico, inhabiting diverse environments from the Rio Grande cottonwood bosque and Albuquerque urban edges to the high meadows of Valles Caldera National Preserve and gypsum flats of White Sands National Park.Habitat and RangeOpen Landscapes: They prefer grasslands, prairies, desert scrublands, and montane pastures where burrowing rodents are common.Urban Presence: Badgers are documented within Albuquerque's Rio Grande Bosque and surrounding city limits as they follow prey into suburban fringes.Conservation Status: NatureServe ranks the American badger as S3 (Vulnerable) within New Mexico due to localized pressures, despite secure global populations.
The project area would be constructed into a senior center and elderly care facility with
associated grounds and maintenance buildings to serve the elderly community of the
Pueblo of Laguna. It is 25 acres north of I-40 off Old Route 66 Road west of
Albuquerque, NM. The area is currently vacant desert except for the roads mentioned
above. Site surveys have already been conducted and an Environmental Assessment
and Biological Survey Report are being written to analyze the effects of the proposed
project to the environment.

Major project elements include construction of approximately 7,000 feet of new siding track to create a 15,000-foot-long siding, installation of a #15 right-hand power-operated turnout, minor modifications to the existing mainline track, embankment widening, and construction of a new 182-foot-long bridge structure adjacent to the existing bridge at MP 863.50. The proposed Capital Investment Project (CIP) involves the extension of an existing railroad siding along Union Pacific Railroad's Carrizozo Subdivision between MP 862.91 and MP 864.13, north of Tularosa in Otero County, New Mexico. The new bridge would consist of four prestressed concrete box spans. Construction activities would occur within the existing and anticipated railroad right-of-way and associated access and staging areas, encompassing approximately 53.77 acres. No roadway relocations or public or private crossing closures are proposed.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of the Army are supplementing and seeking additional comments on aspects of an earlier proposal to revise the regulations defining the scope of waters covered under the Clean Water Act in light of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Sackett vs. the EPA.
