520 |a The goals of this study are to prepare baseline maps of the existing vegetation and wildlife habitats in areas in the upper and middle Susitna basin (upstream of Gold Creek) that could be directly affected by Project development. This mapping information will be used in AEA's license application to assess impacts to both vegetation and wildlife resources from the proposed Project, and to develop any necessary protection, mitigation, and enhancement measures. When completed, the wildlife habitat maps will be used to estimate quantitatively the impacts of habitat loss and alteration for a selected set of bird, mammal, and amphibian species evaluated during the FERC licensing process. The wildlife habitat mapping prepared in this study will be one of the primary pieces of information used to evaluate impacts to wildlife species. The study area consists of a four-mile buffer surrounding areas that would be disturbed by development, including the dam site, the inundation area, supporting infrastructure near the dam site, and alternative road and transmission lines.
